Chapter 310: 310, Man Who Moves History (Part 1) (Request for Monthly Tickets!)

Lu Xun sat on the paper crane, carefully sensing the movements of this member of the Foreign Race, and found it to be an extremely draining exercise for his Divine Sense.

Therefore, given his current strength, even if he intended to behave like a “hunter”, chasing and killing this Foreign Race member every day, he estimated his Divine Sense wouldn’t withstand such a drain and would run dry in no time.

“The biggest advantage is, if a member of the Foreign Race appears near me, I’ll immediately receive feedback.”

Given the current situation, it’s likely within a four to five-mile radius centered on me.”

Lu Xun sensed the position of this Foreign Race member again, and then, to his surprise, he found that the other party seemed to be on a path similar to his own…

On the same course?

They were moving in the same direction!

Towards Lotus Village!

“It seems that he aims to go near the altar,” Lu Xun thought to himself.

At that moment, Lu Xun suddenly became aware of an issue he had overlooked.

“I can sense the members of the Foreign Race because I absorbed the mysterious pearl, which contains part of the energy emitted by the altar.”

“Members of the Foreign Race come through the altar and naturally have the altar’s energy on them, which is why I can sense them.”

“However, the crux of the issue is the altars are created by the Foreign Race!”

Indeed, just as when he first encountered Bai Beiqiu, they met inside an altar, an altar that was still incomplete, with Bai Beiqiu helping to form it.

“So, if every member of the Foreign Race comes through an altar, and every altar is built by the Foreign Race, then something doesn’t quite add up.”

“It’s like the classic chicken and egg question.”

Of course, if we change the premise, not assuming all members of the Foreign Race rely on the altars to be summoned or all the altars are built by the Foreign Race, then there is no need to ponder this issue.

Then we would need to consider: are there any other methods for the Foreign Race to descend?

Or, if indeed all of the Foreign Race are transmitted through the altar, then who built the first altar, if it wasn’t constructed by the Foreign Race itself?

Lu Xun shook his head, deciding not to think about this anymore, as it was useless to dwell on it at this point.

This touches upon the origin of the main task [Foreign Invasion]. At this stage, it’s still far from a large-scale invasion by the Foreign Race — the plotline simply hasn’t progressed that far yet.

Even when he first crossed over, the plotline hadn’t reached this stage.

A more pertinent question for Lu Xun at this moment would be — why can’t I sense the location of the altar!

Indeed, these Foreign Race members do carry an essence of the altar. He can locate that, but he can’t locate the altar itself!

He had already maneuvered the paper crane and was within less than three miles of Lotus Village. Yet, despite being so close, he still couldn’t sense the presence of the altar near Lotus Village.

“Perhaps the altar is heavily disguised and protected,” Lu Xun thought to himself.

After all, even the Great Cultivators couldn’t detect the altars’ locations. The reason why players had been able to discover and destroy the altars before was due to a variety of factors intersecting.

“If I were able to locate the altars, I could just recruit my third brother as my bodyguard, roam around the world, and destroy an altar whenever we locate one, addressing the issue at its root!” Lu Xun felt somewhat regretful.

In doing so, it would feel much like playing a game, bypassing any skirmishes and directly attacking the enemy’s crystal base, which is immensely satisfying.

And the rewards for destroying an altar are extremely rich… The Special Attribute Points alone would make Lu Xun content.

Although the awarded attribute points are given randomly and must be drawn by the player, even if he is completely out of luck, he should still be able to draw Swordsmanship Aptitude, shouldn’t he?

Perhaps one day, he might accidentally become a True Natural Sword Womb!

Just thinking about it brings great joy.

With this thought, Lu Xun felt even more regretful.

And it has been proven that one must always learn to think about issues.

Because during the thinking process, you may find…

Not only do you fail to understand the problem, but you also discover even more problems!

As Lu Xun was thinking, he noticed something dubious.

“When my third brother killed the Foreign Race member, it was on my teacher’s orders. Moreover, our teacher left a mark on the member of the Foreign Race for my third brother to track.”

“My third brother stated that leaving a silent mark within a certain radius was a trifle for our teacher.”

“However, this also implicitly shows that our teacher can easily sense the Foreign Race and can pin its position effortlessly!”

“I wonder how our teacher managed to do it.”

“Is it due to his unimaginably superior strength, or for some other reason?”

“It seems that, once back at our sect, I should find a credible reason to gauge my teacher’s technique.”

Yes, a believable excuse is vital; otherwise, it could easily expose several of his secrets.

Outside Lotus Village, there was a farmer couple walking along a small path through the fields.

They were holding various tools used in farming, heading to their own fields.

The man was not robust. He was considered one of the more frail ones in the entire Lotus Village.

While the woman was not very fair and her attire was unrefined, she had a slender figure, beautiful curves, and looked very fertile at a glance.
