Chapter 535: This Is My Hometown
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
One day, two days, three days… The days passed like flowing water.
It was not until the tenth day that Chen An finally felt a tight wrapping around his body.
Tighter and tighter…
This feeling was very familiar. It was the feeling when he broke through the realm wall.
When the feeling of being wrapped disappeared, Chen An’s expression instantly relaxed.
He had successfully ascended!
However, at the same time, he felt a little uneasy. He was worried that there would be danger everywhere above the Upper Realm. Even Eternal Realm experts would not be able to protect themselves.
There was a long pause.
After feeling that his body had more or less adapted, Chen An slowly opened his eyes and looked around.
It was a forest.
The color green was all around him.
Birds chirped and flowers emitted fragrance.
Surprisingly, the size of the vegetation in this forest looked similar to the vegetation in the mortal area of the Lower Realm.
Unlike the Upper Realm, there were towering trees everywhere at a glance, filled with the aura of ancient prehistoric times.
Strange, why does the spiritual qi feel very thin?
Chen An frowned slightly and realized that something was wrong.
However, on second thought, he felt that he had consumed too much energy during the process of ascending. His facial features and divine consciousness had yet to recover, so he was not so sensitive to the spiritual qi in the air.
I can’t take it anymore. It’s a little overloaded. I have to release them from the
Divine Palace to slow down.”
Chen An muttered.
With that, he released all his family members in the Divine Palace with a thought.
Husband, did we successfully ascend?
The moment Song Huaying came out, she stopped beside Chen An and looked around curiously.
The others sized up their surroundings curiously, their eyes filled with caution, and they were filled with vigilance towards this unknown place they were currently in.
Chen An looked at the people in front of him and frowned slightly.
He realized that there was an unfamiliar woman in the crowd.
Song Huaying, Gu Xinyue, Wen Zhiyun, Shen Qingyi, Jiu Ji, Xiao Qingyue, Ning Xian’er, Yin Ji, Long Biqiong, Lin Xiu’e, Han Shuiyi, Yin Qingyan, Hua Xuanyin, Zhu Yange, Bai Qingxue, Bai Ying, Zi Yan, Jiu Huayu, and a beautiful woman in a green dress.
The unfamiliar woman was the beautiful woman in the green dress.
She looked to be in her forties, but her skin was snow-white and tender. She was even more exquisite than many young girls.
You’re… Elder Tree?
Chen An sized up the beautiful woman for a moment and asked uncertainly.
The beautiful woman smiled obsequiously.
Master, you really have Golden Fire Eyes. You can tell at a glance that it’s me. I’m impressed!”
It was definitely the Sage Tree since it liked to flatter others so much.
Unexpectedly, this bootlicking tree was quite beautiful in human form. It looked very pleasing to the eye.
As expected of a member of my Chen Residence. She’s really good-looking…
Chen An thought to himself.
With that in mind, he said to the Sage Tree that had transformed into a beautiful woman, “Elder Tree, since you’ve already transformed into a human, I won’t call you Old Tree anymore. Based on your characteristics, you’ll be called Chen Meixian in the future.”
This name was not random. Every word had a basis.
Chen represented the Chen family.
Mei highlighted her fawning personality, which meant that she liked to curry favor.
Xian was a sage of the Sage Tree.
I’m touched, I’m so touched!
It’s my honor to be given a name by Old Master!
From now on, my name will be Chen Meixian!
I was born a member of the Chen family, and I’ll die a ghost of the Chen family!”
Master, please accept my bow!
Chen Meixian knelt in front of Chen An and kowtowed gratefully.
It had to be said that he really knew how to curry favor.
Stop kowtowing. Get up.
Chen An did not like people kowtowing to him for no reason. He felt quite uncomfortable.
When Chen Meixian heard this, she quickly got up from the ground with a smile on her face. She was so happy that she even forgot to wipe the dust on her forehead.
Father, why aren’t there any big fruits here!
Chen Yike ran to her father and asked with a frown.
She clearly remembered that when she ascended from the Lower Realm to the Upper Realm back then, she was surrounded by colorful fresh and tender fruits. She ate them one bite at a time and felt very good.
However, now that they had ascended to a higher level, they were surrounded by low bushes.
Not to mention a big fruit, she could not even see a small flower.
‘Ascend for what!’
Chen Yike’s face was filled with unhappiness.
However, when her father took out a box of spirit cakes and threw it to her to satisfy her cravings, she immediately beamed.
Something’s not right. The concentration of spiritual qi here is too low. I feel that it’s inferior to the Lower Realm.”
Bai Qingxue carefully sensed the concentration of spiritual energy around her. When she realized that the concentration of spiritual energy was so low that it was almost nonexistent, she could not help but say this in confusion.
Hearing her say this, the others belatedly felt it too.
Soon, they all showed the same reaction. They all said that the concentration of spiritual energy was low.
Seeing this, Chen An fell into deep thought.
His wives and concubines also felt that the concentration was low. It was not that his perception had yet to recover, but there were other problems.
After a moment, he guessed,
Do you think the place where we ascended happens to be in a forbidden area in this world? For example, a forbidden area with depleted spiritual qi?”
Guess, guess. You only know how to guess all day. If you have time to guess here, wouldn’t you know everything by spreading your divine consciousness? I can already sense a human residence more than 50 kilometers ahead.”
Wen Zhiyun rolled her eyes at him.
A human residence?
Hearing this, Chen An immediately spread out his divine sense.
The next moment, he was stunned.
He froze on the spot like an ice sculpture.
Modern society!
He actually saw a modern society!
There were tall buildings everywhere!
Traffic was heavy!
Looking down the street, he could see many white-collared girls in stockings or a pair of long, snow-white legs!
What was going on?!
What was going on?!
‘What kind of world did I ascend to?!’
‘Could it be that… I’ve returned to the modern society where I was in my previous life?’
Thinking of this, Chen An was so excited that his chest was thumping and his face was red.
After calming himself down, he continued to spread his divine consciousness to observe.
When he saw many familiar large shopping malls, car brands, and various things in his memories, he was extremely sure that he had returned to modern society in his previous life!
What the hell?!
Suddenly, he exclaimed in shock.
He saw an extremely unbelievable scene. On the thousands of phone screens, he saw that the time displayed was actually “September 2, 2023!”
His eyes widened in disbelief.
‘I had clearly transmigrated for nearly 50 years. I had grown from a baby to an eternal cultivator with many wives and concubines. How could it be that less than three years had passed in the world of my previous life?’
Soon, Chen An could no longer suppress his excitement.
Not only had he returned to his hometown in his previous life, but he had also returned to a hometown that was only three years away from his memories!
He was only three years away. This meant that he could seamlessly integrate into this society to survive!
Many of his old friends from back then were still alive today!
Most importantly, his entire family was immortals. Coming to this modern society was an absolute blow!
He would never have to worry about his safety again!
He could even do whatever he wanted!
It was no exaggeration to say that if the modern society in front of him was as he remembered, even the weakest sixteen-year-old daughter of the family, Chen Susu, could destroy this world alone!
City cultivation, the return of the Immortal Emperor. I didn’t expect to be able to experience it personally now after reading so many pretentious urban cultivation novels…”
Chen An was filled with excitement and anticipation as he muttered to himself.
Hearing his muttering, Chen Yuejian asked with a puzzled expression, “Father, what are you talking about? What high school? What pretentious face slapping?”
You’ll know when you go to school in the future.
Chen An said to his eldest daughter with a smile.
Chen Yuejian was very dissatisfied with her father’s answer. Why was her father keeping her in suspense again?
Thinking of this, she decisively went forward and held her father’s arm. She skillfully swayed it and wheedled.
Father, don’t keep me in suspense. Hurry up and tell me, okay?
Alright, let’s talk as we walk. Let’s walk around the human residence ahead.
After saying that, Chen An snapped his fingers and teleported himself and everyone to an uninhabited corner of a park in the city.
Then, he brought his 15 wives and concubines, 16 daughters, Bai Ying, Zi Yan, Jiu Huayu, Chen Meixian, and the others to the most prosperous business district in front.
When he appeared on the street with his beautiful family, the gazes of all the passers-by along the way were instantly attracted. They were completely shocked by him and his wives and daughters.
Oh my god, he’s so handsome and beautiful. Is he a celebrity? Why don’t I know him?”
What a cute little sister!
May I take a photo with you?
In just a short moment, Chen An and his family were drowned out by the exclamations of the passers-by.
Then, like crazy fans who had lost their minds, these passers-by surrounded them one after another, wanting to take a photo and ask for autographs.
Many young daughters were frightened by the scene in front of them. They hid behind their mothers and only dared to show their cute little faces as they sized up their surroundings.
Their mothers thought that the phone in the passerby’s hand was some kind of magical weapon. Their bodies instantly tensed up to protect their daughters. If the situation was not right, they would leave with their daughters.
As for Xiao Qingyue, Han Shuiyi, Yin Qingyan, Bai Qingxue, and the others who were used to being high and mighty, they frowned in unison. They did not like to be surrounded and wanted to attack and send all the passers-by flying.
Seeing that Chen An did not move, they endured it and did not flare up.
Husband, the people and things in this world are so strange. What is this place?”
Song Huaying held Chen An’s arm tightly and asked uneasily.
Looking at the tall buildings around her, all kinds of electronic equipment that could emit light and sound, and all kinds of strange things that she had never seen before, her heart was instinctively filled with fear of the unknown and an extreme lack of security.
Chen An looked down at his wife, who looked uneasy, and said with a faint smile,
Ying’er, this is my hometown. It’s the mortal hometown that I often mentioned in front of you. You always said that you wanted to come to my hometown to take a look. Now, it has already been realized.”
