Chapter 1129
Extra 3 Picking Up Someone
Pan Yun quickly injected the prepared medicine into the life pod. Before she could even catch her breath, her mentor dragged her along to give various reports, attend various forums, and answer questions from officials and professors at all levels.
Pan Yun: ...
She suddenly realized that even if there were bandits waiting at Feishengkou, it was still better than coming back to deal with these things.
At least, it would be a whole new world, full of excitement.
It's too late to regret.
Pan Yun wiped her face, then promptly recorded her experience and the changes in the spiritual realm into a video and handed it to her mentor. She then pulled Pan Xiaohei away to hide and study the space.
Miaozhen and the others were very excited.
This is a completely new world.
Everything here is so novel; many things that only existed in Junior Uncle's imagination have appeared here.
But their Ming Dynasty was no less impressive.
As Miaozhen and the others learned about the new world, they also introduced them to their Great Ming Dynasty.
They didn't know why they were doing it; they just did it instinctively.
Perhaps it's because I've spent so much time with my senior brother and been influenced by his business acumen. I'm always thinking, "What if one day this world can connect with the Ming Dynasty, allowing us to travel between them and goods to circulate?"
The Ming Dynasty still had many good things.
Seeing how excited they were, not only making new friends but also not going home, and considering the time flow between the two worlds, Pan Yun didn't invite many people when she dragged Pan Xiaohei back.
I just quietly contacted some senior students, entrusted the person to them, and left.
She also took away the spirit entity that was obediently staying in the laboratory.
Lingjing, if we really want to trace its origins, belongs to the nation.
There were cameras inside the lab when it exploded, and the footage is stored in the cloud, so it can be reviewed.
As those who have seen the video know, Pan Yun was recording data when the spiritual realm within the formation suddenly exploded.
The camera in the laboratory was highly resistant to impact and fire, and it accurately recorded Pan Yun's vaporization and sacrifice on the spot. The shockwave of the explosion instantly created a black hole in the space, and Ling Jing escaped.
Therefore, before Pan Yun returned, she was a recognized martyr, and this incident was considered a defection from the Spirit Realm.
The truth was only revealed when Pan Yun returned with the spirit realm.
The spirit realm explained that it didn't know what changes had occurred inside, but the formation instantly reversed, causing a massive explosion. If it hadn't decisively cleaved open a space to escape with Pan Yun's soul, not only would Pan Yun have been annihilated in the secondary explosion, but it would have also been blown to pieces.
No one doubted this, because no sooner had Lingjing jumped into the black hole space than the laboratory experienced a second massive explosion, reducing the entire row of laboratories to ashes. What everyone saw now was the rebuilt laboratory.
When Pan Yun returned with the Spirit Realm, everyone from top to bottom was completely dumbfounded.
First of all, this Pan Jun is not the same Pan Jun as before. Even her body and genes are different. She has been reincarnated.
In truth, she was their ancestor, even though they lived in a different time and space.
Secondly, her cultivation level is too high; no one in the entire world can compare with her.
Finally, the spiritual realm became bound to her soul, and they could no longer be separated.
So, to whom does the Spirit Realm belong?
Fortunately, the leaders above were decisive and did not hesitate for long. They immediately clarified the ownership of the Spirit Realm. Since the Spirit Realm was already bound to Pan Yun's soul, according to the rules of the cultivation world, the Spirit Realm belonged to Pan Yun.
Whether to offend a cultivator who has already ascended to immortality or to befriend them, it's a choice you can't make even with your toes.
Moreover, Pan Yun did not ascend to the previous realm after his ascension, but returned to his original world. What does this indicate?
This shows that although Pan Yun was reincarnated, she is still a person from their world at heart, truly deserving of being a good student from the school.
Pan Yun was also willing to place the unsealed spirit realm body in the laboratory for them to study.
No one knows how much Pan Yun and Ling Jing secretly kept.
But these things alone are enough for them to study for many years.
Pan Yun also brought back powerful cultivators from that world. I heard they knew a lot about the original cultivation techniques, so everyone exchanged ideas.
Miao Zhen and the others were thinking about their junior uncle and them. The technology and magic of this world were so well integrated, and everyone cultivated. Even those without cultivation talent could extend their lifespan through some training. In addition, with their various biotechnologies, the average lifespan was several times that of their Great Ming Dynasty.
Xue Shao was so badly injured, yet he recovered completely in just a few days by lying in that cabin-like thing... They must learn all these techniques!
What's most wonderful is that Junior Uncle's teachers and senior students are all very generous and don't hold back at all. They can learn whatever they want, as long as they share some of the techniques they know.
They must be doing this out of respect for their junior uncle.
As expected, Junior Uncle still favors the Ming Dynasty.
That's true. I heard that my junior uncle only lived for twenty-odd years in his previous life, but she lived for fifty-three years in the Ming Dynasty.
Both parties were happy.
Pan Yun was pleased to see that they got along well.
She went to the library to photocopy a lot of books and materials, and also scavenged some sample materials left over from before. She then took the Spirit Realm with her and tore through space to return.
At this point, it had only been seven days since she jumped into this world.
In another world, Wang Cong estimated the time and waited by the pit on the first day of the seventh year, but no one came.
Fortunately, he didn't just wait idly.
His glass factory was built not far away. Now, the glass produced by his factory not only supplies the Central Plains, but is also transported to the Western Regions and even the Mediterranean.
Over seven years, through technological innovation, he also built glass factories in Jiangnan and Lingnan, greatly reducing transportation costs.
During these seven years, the technology of the Ming Dynasty experienced a major breakthrough.
When Pan Jun returned to this world, the houses built in the desert and Gobi were all fitted with glass and had electricity, and the lighting used for daily life was lamps.
Pan Yun appeared late at night, but the soldiers guarding the sandpit still spotted her.
When the soldier on duty saw the crack in mid-air, and the orange-gold light squeezing out from it, his eyes widened and he was speechless for a moment. By the time he came to his senses and pulled his comrade to show him, the crack had closed up in a flash.
He only saw what appeared to be a blue and white shadow falling from mid-air.
"What?"
The soldier pointed to the air and stammered for a while before finally finding the voice: "Grand Preceptor, Grand Preceptor is back."
"Where is it?" His companion looked up at the sky and saw only a sky full of stars, nothing else.
"Are you out of your mind from exhaustion? Or are you seeing things from stargazing? I told you long ago that you have no talent and shouldn't bother cultivating anymore, but you wouldn't listen. You practiced morning and night, and even claimed that you could absorb the power of the stars. How come I didn't know there was a cultivation method in this world that cultivates the power of the stars?"
“I really saw it,” the soldier said anxiously. “Just now, in mid-air, there was a crack under those two stars, and light was shooting out, but it closed up very quickly.”
"Nonsense, there's light even in a crack, how could I not see it?"
"Your eyes are closed, what can you see?"
Pan Yun carried Pan Xiaohei past them, glanced up at the soldier who insisted he had seen her, and thought it was fate that he could see her, so she casually tossed a piece of jade up to him.
The jade piece landed on his head with a snap. He stared blankly, reached up to cover it, and looked at his companion.
His companion's eyes widened as he watched the jade piece that seemed to have fallen from the sky, and he gripped his knife tightly.
They were sent by the imperial court to guard the sinkhole.
Indeed, this place is now known as a sinkhole.
There is a temple next to it, which enshrines a stone statue of Pan Yun. The temple keeper is a female official named Yu Liujie. It is said that she was adopted and supported by the national teacher, but later fell into banditry and was sold into the palace by human traffickers.
By a twist of fate, she met the Imperial Preceptor again in the palace. The Imperial Preceptor encouraged her to continue her studies, and she later passed the examination from palace maid to female official. She then served Empress Wang until the Imperial Preceptor ascended to heaven and left the palace. She then tied up her hair and voluntarily went to this desolate place to serve as a temple keeper.
In just seven years, a once deserted desert has been transformed into a bustling town, attracting countless pilgrims every year. Not to mention, many merchants have built a glass factory here, and by chance, the imperial court has also discovered a potassium salt pond here.
At this time, the economic value of this desert was no less than that of any fertile land in the Central Plains. (End of Chapter)
