Holiday Inn Vantone, not far from the sea, is a well-known five-star hotel in Zhonghai.

Zhao Hao saw the knife in the hotel, and he was very moved, this guy was too upright, in order to answer his questions, he came to Zhonghai specially. At the same time, Zhao Hao was also a little nervous, the knife was even opened, and those who didn't know the truth definitely thought that these two men were doing things when they opened the room, and the atmosphere was rotten all of a sudden.

As soon as they met, Zhao Hao asked, "Why are you in this hotel?" ”

Although the knife has lost all his strength, his body is also strong, and he said with a smile: "This is my second senior brother's property, and I came to eat and live for nothing." ”

After a pause, he added: "The Moon God Doctor is also here in Zhonghai, and I came here this time mainly to ask her for a favor and see if I can restore my strength." ”

Zhao Hao realized that he was self-inflicted, and people didn't come to him at all, so he couldn't help but be curious: "Can the Moon God Doctor cure you?" ”

"I don't know, I heard that the Moon God Doctor cured a person with paralysis of the lower limbs some time ago, so I'm here to try my luck." The knife replied, with some anticipation in his eyes.

Zhao Hao suddenly realized, he had tried, and the Gan Lin mantra could only treat internal and external injuries, but could not cure diseases, and even colds and fevers could not be cured. The situation of the knife can be regarded as a chronic disease, and Zhao Hao can't do anything about it.

"The last time you asked me, it's inconvenient to say it in WeChat, but in fact, I don't know much." Xiaodao said again: "Wait for my second senior brother to come, you just have to ask him." The senior brother's name is Wan Shitong, nicknamed Jack-of-all-trades, and he knows everything about the affairs of the national art world, and he also knows something about the situation abroad. ”

It didn't take long for a middle-aged man who looked like a wealthy businessman to appear.

This person is very eloquent at first glance, and it is difficult to imagine that he is a disciple of the Eight Great Sects.

Zhao Hao opened his eyes, he had heard Xue Wei say that the disciples of the eight major sects were all over the place, and some of them were hidden in the city, and it was so. If he guessed correctly, the know-it-all runs this five-star hotel, and there is more or less sectarian support behind it.

The three of them exchanged pleasantries, and the know-it-all was extremely enthusiastic, and excessive enthusiasm seemed polite.

Xiaodao saw that Zhao Hao had some concerns, and said: "Senior brother, Zhao Hao is my good friend who lives and dies in the evolution world, and he is not an outsider, so you don't need to be polite." ”

The know-it-all immediately changed his style: "Okay, Xiao Zhao, if you have any trouble, just ask, in the Sino-Haitian realm, friends in black and white will sell more or less three points of face." ”

Zhao Hao smiled: "I don't have any trouble, I just have some questions and want to ask Brother Wan for advice." ”

Know-it-all said: "Haha, if you want to say something else, I really can't solve it." If you ask me about gossip, then you are really looking for the right person, brother, I don't have any other skills, but I am more well-informed. ”

Zhao Hao didn't get straight to the point this time, and asked tentatively, "Brother Wan, how many second-order evolutionaries are there in China now?" ”

The know-it-all said without hesitation: "It's hard to say the exact number, but I estimate that there are no less than a thousand people." ”

Zhao Hao's heart was bright, this old brother said casually, it was about the same as the number Duan Simin said, and there were really two brushes. He remained silent and asked a second question: "How did these thousands of people get to the second-order evolution world?" ”

"Most of them are mutations, there are many talents in China, and there are not a few who have full value of mutant genes. I've heard that many people who mutated and ascended regretted it, they didn't know anything about the ancient city at the beginning, they thought that ascension was to teleport back to China, and they hurriedly ascended, but they didn't mix well in the second-order evolution world. "The know-it-all still has reservations, and does not elaborate on the situation in the second-order evolutionary world.

"Mostly?" Zhao Hao grabbed a key word: "How did the other part of the people soar?" ”

"The other part of the people is not ascending." Know-it-all deserves to be an expert in gossip, and he knows all gossip: "As soon as those people walked into the seven-colored pillar of light, they directly teleported to the second-order evolution world. ”

Finally getting to the point, Zhao Hao was a little excited, and asked a question that had been held in his heart for a long time: "Those people have been in China before, they shouldn't be full of genes, how can they directly enter the second-order evolution world?" ”

"Haha, Xiao Zhao, your thinking has entered a misunderstanding. In these years of national evolution, the first thing that everyone thinks of is various genes, and the idea is wrong from the beginning. Jack-of-all-trades smiled and said, "Those people who entered the second-order evolutionary world have nothing to do with genes. ”

"What does that have to do with that?" Zhao Hao said with a blank eye.

The know-it-all slowly spat out two words: "Spiritual power." ”

Zhao Hao was taken aback: "Isn't spiritual power the power of second-order evolutionaries?" ”

"No, spiritual power is not only something that exists in the evolutionary world, as early as thousands of years ago, there was such a thing as spiritual power in Huaxia. The ancient Qi Refiners, as well as those mysterious cultivators, cultivated spiritual power. The know-it-all broke a fierce news: "Before the arrival of the colorful pillar of light, Huaxia hid the dragon and crouching tiger, and there were not a few masters who practiced spiritual power. ”

Zhao Hao drew inferences: "In other words, as long as the spiritual power is cultivated in the body, it will be directly teleported to the second-order evolution world, is that what it means?" ”

"That's right!" Know-it-all buy one get one free, with a message: "There is also a power that is higher and deeper than spiritual power, called mana." Hundreds of years ago, Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang, was a legend with great mana, which is also a real figure in history recognized by the national art world. In the late Qing Dynasty, there were also several real people with mana in China, and they fought with Western superpowers during the war. As for whether there are real people alive now, it's hard to say. ”

Zhao Hao's mind was buzzing, could those legendary real people be third-order evolutionaries who were better than the second order?

He calmed his messy mind and asked, "Are there still Qi Refiners and Cultivators now?" ”

"Qi refiners have been extinct for hundreds of years, but now there are also characters in the same vein as qi refiners, such as wizards in Miao Jiang and lamas in Tibet, whose methods are similar to those of qi refiners." Know-it-all said: "As for cultivators, it is difficult to define, strictly speaking, my junior brother and I are also considered cultivators, and the limit pursued by martial artists in the world is nothing more than eight words - enter the Tao with martial arts, shatter the void!" ”

Zhao Hao looked at the other party in shock: "Does your sect have a master who shatters the void?" ”

"Haha, Brother Zhao laughed. Entering the Tao with martial arts and shattering the void are two realms. First of all, you have to break through the limits of martial arts and transform from a martial artist to a cultivator, which is called entering the Tao with martial arts. When you reach the realm of cultivators, you have to cultivate for many years, and when the time, place, and people are right, there is the possibility of shattering the void. When the know-it-all said this, he sighed: "The so-called Broken Void is just a legend, and my Kongtong Sect has not seen such a strange person in two hundred years. ”

Zhao Hao's heart moved, listening to the subtext of this old brother, the Hollow Sect did not have people who broke the void, but there were big bulls who entered the Tao with martial arts.

When it comes to the secrets of other sects, Zhao Hao is not easy to inquire about, so he specially detours: "Brother Wan, junior brother takes the liberty of asking, are there many masters in the eight major sects who enter the Tao with martial arts?" ”

"There are not many to talk about, among the eight factions, only Shaolin, Wudang, and our Kongtong, there are only a handful of people who pursue martial arts and enter the Tao with martial arts." The know-it-all has to answer: "The other sects take different routes, the Kunlun sect is the most mysterious, rarely set foot in the red dust, and their cultivation method can be called an unsolvable mystery." Emei entered the road with a sword, and according to legend, there was a sword fairy back then. Maoshan and Longhu Mountain are the same, these two factions searched the world for the heirs of the innate spirit fetus, and their disciples practiced spiritual power early. ”

Zhao Hao was shocked: "Maoshan and Longhu Mountain are all second-order evolutionaries? ”

"Xiao Zhao, I just said, don't use the thinking of the evolutionary world to measure the characters in the national art world." Know-it-all smiled: "The disciples of these two factions, although they have practiced spiritual power, usually do some business of catching demons and ghosts, and their combat effectiveness may not be very strong. I use the game terminology that you young people are used to explaining, the general warrior is equivalent to a warrior, and the disciples of the two factions are equivalent to a mage, once a warrior gets close, the mage's life is not guaranteed. Maoshan and Longhu Mountain, it is their heavenly master who can hold up the scene. ”

Zhao Hao suddenly said: "Isn't it very dangerous for the disciples of these two sects to go to the second-order evolution world?" ”

The know-it-all said: "That's right, there are not a few disciples of the two factions who have teleported to the second-order evolution world, and their overall combat strength may not be able to catch up with the evolutionaries who have mutated and soared, and their lives are not very beautiful." ”

Zhao Hao asked another question: "Brother Wan, what is the congenital spirit fetus you just said?" ”

"Even people who are born with spiritual power induction, it is rare to have one among millions of people. This kind of person cultivates the Dao Fa, and he can get twice the result with half the effort, and he can practice spiritual power in a few years with high talent. The know-it-all gushed: "The innate spirit fetus is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the most powerful of which is born with the ability to awaken, that is, the kind of superpower that foreign devils say." ”

Is there still such an operation?

Zhao Hao was shocked and opened his eyes again.

At this moment, he really went from an ordinary person to another circle.

"In Maoshan and Longhu Mountain, disciples who awaken their abilities before the age of eighteen are often the heirs of the Heavenly Master." The know-it-all continued: "I don't know what's going on, there are more supernatural people born in Western countries, and there are also several schools. Don't look at the current European and American countries to build only one ancient city, in the second-order evolution world, those foreigners are very popular, and their blonde and blue-eyed appearance is more in line with the appetite of monsters. ”

Speaking of this, the know-it-all gave a piece of advice: "Brother Zhao, I advise you not to rush to ascend, accumulation is the right way." Recently, the environment of the second-order evolution world has been very chaotic, and the head descending master of Thailand, the ninja and onmyoji of the Wa Kingdom, and some strange characters in India have joined forces to do things, mainly against our Chinese evolutionaries. ”

"Is there really a profession like a ninja or an onmyoji?" Zhao Hao was dumbfounded, what he had seen in the anime before actually appeared in real life, which made him unable to accept it for a while.

"There are many wonders in the world." The know-it-all sighed: "Fortunately, our second-order Huaxia evolutionaries are still able to compete with those bull ghosts and snake gods. In addition to the superficial organization of the Evolution Bureau, there is also a mysterious organization that has been established for decades, called [Dragon Soul]. It is said that the people in it have special abilities, so if you meet a little witch named [Ziyan] in the future, you must be careful. ”
