The Geared Immortal

Chapter 762 - Heaven And Earth Opening



Chapter 762

For millions of years, the immortal land has been the training ground for the race that belongs to the light. It has produced millions of deities that protected the balance between light and darkness.

Every 100 years, the immortal land opens its portals to the many worlds in the universe, and through this those immortals below the high-lord level may have a chance to return to their original world. They may have a chance to see their loved ones once again and reminisce about the past or correct their previous mistakes.

But only a chosen few could have this chance, and those that are strong enough would get this opportunity. This event is called the Heaven and Earth Opening.

As the day of the Heaven and Earth Opening drew closer, almost all of the immortals in the immortal land begin their preparation. Those powerful beings who have been cultivating in seclusion and would not come out in normal days have suddenly emerged from their caves and came back to their clans.

Many talented people are waiting for this opportunity and event.

So right now, many powerful beings below the high lord level have appeared in preparation for the upcoming Heaven and Earth Opening trials. In one month\'s time, the trials would begin and every available immortal who would like to participate has already started to send out their names in the cities that they belong to.

Meanwhile, inside a small hidden village, Shin Jiao and his people are having a discussion.

It has been months ever since he became a wanted person and also the time when the peasant village was hidden from the public\'s eyes. Not that anyone could just find it easily in the past though. 

In fact, the village itself did not disappear. It is just protected by an array formation that would make it impossible for anyone to step inside the village. The array is like a teleportation point where once a person walks towards that point, they would bypass the village and appear on the other side. It\'s like folding the space where the village is.

This would make the village inaccessible to anyone except for those that lived in the village.

Within those months, many changes have started to be visible as outside the village there are now many houses that have been constructed. The scenery and architecture are like a combination of modern and ancient times on earth. Beautiful houses with trees and flowers surrounding them and the roads are made of cement or bricks.

Everything has truly changed even the lives of the many immortals living outside the village have changed. Most of them are now busy practicing and absorbing the rich amount of universe energy enveloping the whole community.

Shin Jiao plans to turn the place outside of the village into a small town. However, the population is not yet sufficient; hence he has no choice but to slowly build it.

Meanwhile, the crafting, alchemy, and array knowledge that is being taught in this place is a notch higher than those outside. With that, the improvement of the people of Shin Jiao is higher than the rest of the human race.

He plans to improve and grow his power so much that even if there is a saint ruler that would want to obstruct them, then his village would be able to defeat them in a battle.

Though that is the most challenging thing to do, it is his end goal.

He has also already told them his real identity and where he came from. Since they are all his people and they followed him, Shin Jiao did not hide anything from them anymore.

At this time, inside of Shin Jiao\'s residence, a tall and petite woman is currently inside his workshop with her head lowered while her hands are busy tinkering something on the long workshop table.

Luna Halil has been busy lately as she has learned a lot of things from Shin Jiao. With her high comprehension ability and intelligence, she is able to grasp everything that Shin Jiao could teach her. And now she is creating a new artifact for herself.

While busy, she suddenly noticed someone coming inside the workshop.

"Hey, Luna… you\'re still at it? Take a rest, at least eat something… though you will not permanently die, it is still a bother if you die because of hunger and negligence…" Shin Jiao said while bringing with him a large plate of assorted food.

As he put it on the side table, Luna who is busy with her work suddenly stops, and then she suddenly opens her mouth.

"Shin… feed me… I can\'t stop what I\'m doing right now…" she demanded while pointing at her opened mouth.

"Tsk… You… Sigh… you\'re too addicted to crafting, why don\'t you take a rest for a while?" Shin Jiao said while looking around the workshop with tons of artifacts lying around.

"No way… I can almost get the idea of energy conversion. If this is successful, then I can add a further boost to my suit, and an additional higher energy shield. With this, I might even be able to fight against a high lord. Hihi…"

"With you and your crappy fighting style? Che... There is no way a high lord would be defeated by you." Shin Jiao scoffed while taking his chopsticks and picking up a piece of meat from the plate.

Luna suddenly glared at Shin Jiao as she gobbles up the piece of meat. She suddenly returns to her work, but Shin Jiao stopped her.

"Hey… another one…" he said as he takes another piece of meat.

The two then began to discuss a topic on energy conversion and how to use universal energy while inside their suit or when using an artifact. They also talked about the plans for the upcoming meeting. Shin Jiao did this while helping her with her food.

He could not help but feel like an older brother, though Luna is way older than him.

Luna on the other hand listened to him while eating and doing her stuff.

Shin Jiao could not help but be amazed at the talent of the woman. He knew that she\'s been in the immortal land longer than himself. But thinking of those 40,000 years of toiling for the high elves, Shin Jiao could not help but feel pity towards her.

While the two are discussing, someone enters the workshop and then told the two that the meeting is about to start.

Inside a large modern designed conference room, many people are already seated while waiting for the few important people to enter. They are discussing the upcoming Heaven and Earth Opening with excitement in their eyes.

Not long later, Shin Jiao, Luna Halil, Ji Ha-jun, and the rest of the top officials of Shin Jiao\'s people enter the conference room.

Ji Ha-jun which was appointed by Shin Jiao to be the leader of his people stood in the rostrum. Since so far, Ji Ha-jun is the one with the highest power level in the village, so he was assigned by Shin Jiao to have this job. 

"Everyone… we have called you here today for a very important meeting. Our agenda for this meeting are two… The first one is the proposed production of new armor power suits for the protectors, and the second one is the upcoming Heaven and Earth opening…"

After Ji Ha-jun said the goals everyone suddenly burst out in cacophony. They are already aware of the new power suits, but most of them are more excited about the Heaven and Earth opening. They knew how amazing that event would be, however, with the Osmond clan being hostile towards them, many did not know how could they enter or even just spectate this event?

Hearing the people around them discuss, Ji Ha-jun lifted his hand to stop them.

"For those who wanted to spectate this event, Master Shin Jiao has already prepared something for you all." After he said that he turns towards Shin Jiao.

But before Shin Jiao could get up, Luna suddenly patted his shoulder.

"I want to present this… can I?" she whispered.

Shin Jiao stopped and answered her with a nod.

Luna excitedly stood up and then walks to the rostrum.

"Alright, let me show you something that we have been working for a while now," she said as she suddenly pushes a button.

Then behind her, the white curtain rises.

The background then became like a black glass-like screen.

"This is what we call a monitor…" she said with a smile.

"We will put up a huge monitor in the middle of the village and also one outside of the village… and this is what you are going to see on this screen…"

As she said those words, she pushed another button, and then the black screen suddenly changes as light appears. And in front of everyone\'s eyes, they saw people moving roundabout creating a stage-like platform. She then pushed another button and a forest was shown on the screen.

Everyone gasped in astonishment upon seeing this.

"With this new technology that we have created everyone can now see outside our village without going out. And if you work hard, you can have a chance to get your very own personal screen in your homes." She said with a smile.

After her words, someone suddenly raised his hand and stands up.

"How… how much? How much is that wonderful artifact?" he asked with an excited tone.

"Hmm… This is just a prototype for now. But once it goes into production, we will sell it for 5 energy core a piece. That is as big as a 20 inches widescreen."

Of course, 5 energy cores for those strong fighters are easily obtained. But for those ordinary folks, they have to work hard on that.

And since this is going to be in the future, Shin Jiao and those responsible for creating the screen has already prepared something on how those screens would be used.

In fact, Shin Jiao has already created a framework for the village government. And one of those is the planning department.

In there he and others have already planned to create several TV programs to be viewed on different channels. Ranging from martial arts technique training to crafting, alchemy, and basic array teaching, and more. He plans to broadcast them to all the villagers and later outside.

With this, the education in the village first would be universal and easy to access.

As Luna presented the plan, Shin Jiao has also begun to imagine who are the people he could hire to start a broadcasting studio. Though it would take a lot of work, he knew that it would be helpful in creating a new world for him and his people.

But he could let his imagination stray anywhere for now.

This is because the broadcast of the Heaven and Earth opening should come first.
