I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong Chapter 384 347 Despair

The fruit gathering didn't take long, about an hour, before the won who went to gather the fruits trickled back to the camp.

There were over a dozen when they left, but fewer than ten returned.

No need for many words; those who didn't return probably ventured too far away and could never co back; or perhaps, they encountered a roaming soul and lost their lives for good.

Fortunately, these soldiers have experienced much and are used to death, so they are not troubled by feelings of fear or sorrow.

Over there, the officials began arranging the night shift, while the rest started to sleep with their eyes closed.

Sleeping is one of the few happy things left for mortals in this end-of-days world. In dreams, perhaps they can forget hunger and fatigue;

Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain did not sleep, both quietly ditating with their eyes closed.

Tian Lin even took a mont to secretly eat three Ghost Cry Fruits.

Ghost Cry Fruits are referred to as "Returning Pills" in literature, capable of converting into Golden Spirit Qi.

It's a pity that the "Returning Pill" is of too low a grade; a re handful of Ghost Cry Fruits cannot provide Tian Lin with much Golden Spirit Qi.

Even so, Tian Lin still managed to restore a good deal of strength thanks to the Ghost Cry Fruits.

Ti quickly reached the deep of night, and so in the camp were starting to switch shifts for guard duty.

At this mont, Master Listening Rain finally opened his eyes from ditation.

He asked Tian Lin, "Have you sensed any Spiritual Energy?"

Tian Lin shook his head, Master Listening Rain anxiously continued:

"In theory, my cultivation has vanished. But the talent for cultivation shouldn't disappear! Especially since I am soone with Nascent Soul-level cultivation, resensitizing should be easy again.

Yet I've ditated for quite so ti and can't sense the slightest bit of Spiritual Energy in this heaven and earth. Could it be that you and I are not cultivators of this world? Or is this space a complete illusion?"

Tian Lin said nothing, only looked toward the official approaching from not far away.

The official, although the highest-ranking among those present, still did not grant himself the privilege of not taking turns on duty.

It was the latter half of the night, and it was the official's turn to switch shifts.

"I've watched you two pull the carts during the day, truly not comparable to re mortals. Could it be you both are cultivators as well?"

This statent also clarified why the deputy leader's attitude towards them had improved.

Tian Lin thus understood that Master Listening Rain's ditation was observed by this official before.

"We are not cultivators, we've only read so Immortal Books."

"I think you indeed stumbled upon a cultivation thod by chance. It's a sha you began cultivating too late, and now there's no Spiritual Energy left for cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Master Listening Rain couldn't help questioning: "If there's no Spiritual Energy in the world, then why do you possess a Qi Refinent of five layers? And the deputy leader possesses three layers?"

The official replied, "There's no Spiritual Energy in this world, but so Spirit Fruits remain; early on, I and the deputy leader consud these to attain our cultivation levels;

but now, even the basic necessities for survival are scarce in the Great Qi Dynasty, let alone such Spirit Fruits?"

Master Listening Rain was dumbfounded, still sowhat skeptical.

He is a descendant of the Great Qi Dynasty, achieving Nascent Soul-level strength in the Southern Border.

The Southern Border, after all, is also part of the Great Qi Dynasty—

If there's no Spiritual Energy in the Great Qi Dynasty, then where does the Spiritual Energy in the Southern Border and North Wilderness co from after the dynasty's fall?

"In any case, without Spirit Fruits, even with an Immortal Technique, you can't succeed, so you might as well not waste your strength."

The official continued, "Heaven sends disaster to ensure the Great Qi Dynasty no longer has immortals, initially cutting off the Spiritual Energy essential for cultivators' practices; Heaven also wants the Great Qi Dynasty people dead, causing annual famines, thus plants that can be eaten slowly wither and cease to grow while poisonous plants thrive!"

"So, are the Great Qi people destined for extinction?"

"I don't know if the people of Great Qi will go extinct. But the mortals of Great Qi are destined to die first—

Those aristocratic families and the Royal Family have accumulated Spirit Fruits and Immortal Trees. Although these will eventually run out, they suffice for their indulgence for tens of thousands of years—

We soldiers are heading to the Central State not to seek immortality, but to urge these aristocratic families and Royal Family to give us a bit of food to survive;"

Upon hearing this, Tian Lin harbored doubts.

Will the aristocratic families and Royal Family in the Central State truly be willing to distribute so food to these mortals?

It's feared that the official already knows the answer.

But the despairing truth is, even knowing that the aristocratic families and Royal Family won't distribute grain to them—they can only march towards the Central State, full of hope.

For apart from this, no other path remains for them.

"How far is it from here to the Central State?"

Tian Lin asked, to which the official replied, "It's still more than a hundred thousand miles to the Central State from here!"

Over a hundred thousand miles without food, with roaming souls and evil spirits everywhere—when will they ever reach it?

Tian Lin already foresaw that this group can absolutely not reach the Central State.

This group is most likely to starve to death on the road or die at the hands of evil spirits and roaming souls.

"We are already considered fortunate, what about those living in the Southern Border and North Wilderness? Their journey to the Central State is not rely thousands of miles?"

The official seed to notice Tian Lin's lack of hope for this group's future, so he smiled and said as much.

"You're right, as long as we keep heading east, soday we'll reach the Central State!"

With those words, the official left to take his watch.

After the official walked away, Master Listening Rain asked Tian Lin, "Do you think the official was fear-mongering, deceiving us?"

Tian Lin shook his head, "In the end, he never asked what kind of Immortal Technique we practiced; he probably truly doesn't care what we're cultivating; this world, perhaps, indeed, no longer has Spiritual Energy."

Whether this world has Spiritual Energy or not doesn't matter much to Tian Lin.

To even say darker—if people in this world can no longer cultivate immortality, so long as Tian Lin can still pursue Cultivation, things are not so grim.

The night passed without discussion, and the next day the sun rose as usual, the group once again taking to the road.

Perhaps realising the official's words were true, that there's no Spiritual Energy left for cultivation in the world, Master Listening Rain was disheartened.

His whole deanor was poor, devoid of vigour in his actions.

Early on, upon entering this world, he still thought he could rely on ditation to regain so of his cultivation. Now, understanding the situation in this world, he had to accept the fact that he might remain an old mortal man for the rest of his life.

"Do you think, if we were brought into this world by the Immortal Sword, what's its intention in creating such a world?"

"Do you think this world is real or an illusion?"

"Do you think we'll be able to leave?"

All along, the old man kept questioning intermittently. Tian Lin, hearing these, was sowhat helpless, and replied, "Think about it, it's not just the two of us who entered this world. Other Nascent Soul strongn also entered, and they aren't anxious, so why should we be?"

Master Listening Rain nodded in agreent!

Those Nascent Soul cultivators who entered this world along with them might not be in a rush, but knowing that others are in the sa predicant did indeed lift Master Listening Rain's spirits considerably.
