Two Realms: From Glass Beads to Divine Skills, Invincible

Chapter 4: Quesanti's Chapter Collection Station.

Five hundred taels?

Bai Chen was slightly taken aback. His first thought was whether the other party was trying to scam him out of money.

However, he had no other hope at the moment, so he decided to listen to what the old doctor had to say and began to speak:

"Please advise, Dr. Liu!"

"Learn martial arts!"

The old man's voice was short and forceful: "Once you learn martial arts and cultivate to the Innate Realm, you can cleanse your marrow and transform your physical body, which will surely solve this poison problem."

"However, learning martial arts is not something that can be done overnight. Given your current situation, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until then."

"Therefore, before you have mastered the skills, you must have a martial artist at the Innate Realm who can regularly nourish your internal organs with their internal energy. Only in this way can you have any hope of survival."

"More than two hundred li outside the city, there is a Qingyun Mountain, and on the mountain is a Taoist temple called Qingyun Temple."

Liu Yongchang pointed outside and said, "The master of that temple is a True Man, a Primordial Being."

"As for the five hundred taels..." Liu Yongchang explained, "that is the merit money for becoming a lay Buddhist at Qingyun Temple."

Learning martial arts...Innate Realm...Nurturing internal organs with internal energy...

Each unfamiliar yet familiar word resonated with his heartstrings.

Bai Chen was both surprised and delighted.

Unexpectedly, this Martial Continent actually lives up to its name, with martial arts techniques that are only found in novels.

"Thank you, doctor!" Bai Chen quickly bowed and expressed his gratitude.

"No need for thanks, just give me two taels of silver for the consultation." The old man smiled and waved his hand.

...

Leave the clinic.

Bai Chen wandered aimlessly through the bustling streets.

But in his mind, he was thinking about how to get to Qingyun Temple.

According to the old man at the clinic, Qingyun Temple is located more than two hundred li north of Yong'an City.

In a technologically advanced modern society, a mere two hundred miles would only take a few hours to travel.

However, this is a feudal ancient world, and apart from the cities and towns where people gather, it is almost entirely in the state of primeval forest.

The road was rugged and covered with thorns.

Two hundred miles is not an easy distance to travel, especially since his lungs have begun to fibrose and his physical strength has declined significantly.

Just as Bai Chen was pondering how to get to Qingyun Temple.

Several furtive figures were following Bai Chen closely.

"Who?"

Bai Chen sensed something and suddenly turned around.

The vendors on both sides remained the same, and passersby hurried by, without noticing anything unusual.

Ok?

Bai Chen continued walking forward without making a sound, then suddenly squatted down, pretending to look for something.

In reality, he was looking down at his back.

He found out this time.

The two men dressed in burlap clothes and with headscarves were indeed following him.

"This is bad, it looks like we're being watched."

Bai Chen felt heavy-hearted.

He didn't think it was just his imagination.

He relied on this caution to successfully cross the Mexican border and reach New Mexico, the state of the United States.

It's obvious without even guessing that it was probably someone from the pawnshop.

Since he transmigrated to this world, he has only been here for less than an hour, and the only place he has flaunted his wealth is at Yang's Pawnshop.

"Grass!"

Bai Chen cursed under his breath.

Given the current situation, it's even more impossible to leave the city and go to Qingyun Temple.

No!

We absolutely cannot give up like this.

Bai Chen's eyes hardened. "Anyone who dares to stop me from living, I'll make them die first!"

He walked briskly toward the bustling crossroads.

When you're being watched, the more crowded the place, the safer you are.

Simultaneously.

Bai Chen's mind raced as he searched for a way to break the deadlock.

...

I thought about it for a while.

He actually came up with a solution.

"First, take the silver notes to the bank to withdraw the cash, then travel back to the real world, sell the silver, and exchange it for US dollars to buy medicine."

"That traditional Chinese medicine doctor in Chinatown said that as long as I use that medicine to control it, I can live for another month..."

"In addition, we can use the remaining money to purchase weapons and equipment, and send some money back to our son in China."

Bai Chen's eyes grew even brighter.

What he lacks most right now is time. If he had enough time, he could make more thorough preparations.

For example, next time they might travel back in time wearing bulletproof vests, helmets, and carrying AKs or flamethrowers.

If anyone dares to ambush us on the way, let them experience the steel torrent of the technological world.

My thoughts are focused on this.

Bai Chen strode towards Dachang Money Exchange.

Previously, when he was at the pawnshop, he exchanged glass beads for silver notes from Dachang Money Shop.

Just as Bai Chen was walking away quickly...

Not far behind, two men disguised as ordinary citizens quickly followed.

...

After an incense stick has burned.

The entrance to a latrine.

The two men who were following them had a look of confusion on their faces.

They clearly saw that the fat sheep went into the nearby outhouse after leaving Dachang Money Exchange.

After waiting for a long time without seeing anyone come out, he went up and pushed open the door of the outhouse, only to find that there was nothing inside.

"Tch! We lost them!"

"Oh dear, what should we do!"

The two were a little flustered; how were they going to explain this when they got back?

.....

Let's not even talk about what happened in that other world.

Here.

New Mexico.

Inside a rusty metal container in a slum.

Bai Chen felt the heavy cloth bag in his hands, and his heart was filled with excitement.

it is true!

The time travel is real, and the alternate world of Martial Continent is also real!

"Oh right, let's check the time first."

Bai Chen suppressed his excitement and took out his phone from his pocket.

After being transported to another world, there is no cell phone signal, but time keeps moving forward.

Time (11:53)

???

Bai Chen rubbed his eyes, staring at the time on his phone in disbelief.

He had clearly been in that other world for over an hour.

In the real world, only one minute has passed?

Is the time flow ratio between the two worlds really that huge?

Bai Chen silently thought to himself, "Check the time travel cooldown."

[Gate 1: Martial Continent]

[Cooldown: Five days (119 hours and 59 minutes...)]

A semi-transparent interface that only he could see, with the cooldown countdown clearly displayed in the cooldown section.

To travel to another world again, you need to wait for the countdown to end.

"First, deal with the money, then buy medicine to prolong his life, and finally send some money back to my son."

Bai Chen weighed the cloth bag in his hand.

He exchanged three hundred taels of silver at the Dachang Money Exchange in the other world.

If we convert it according to the rule that 16 liang equals 500 grams, it is equivalent to 6250 grams.

However, the U.S. typically uses ounces to settle accounts for precious metals.

Bai Chen did a quick calculation and, excluding purity issues, he estimated that his silver could be sold for over 24,000 US dollars.

Of course, since his silver is of low purity and there are no invoices, he will definitely be able to negotiate a lower price later.

"More than twenty thousand US dollars is enough!"

Bai Chen took a deep breath and stuffed the cloth bag containing the silver into his crotch.

Fortunately, the trousers were loose and the silver was densely packed, so even eighteen pounds could be contained.

.....

New Mexico has many recycling centers in Quesanti.

Wearing a baseball cap, Bai Chen casually found a recycling station and easily disposed of the silver.

The price was lower than I expected, only $17,000.

Moreover, the other party said that this was only because of his skin color.

If it were an older black man, he would be lucky to get $10,000 for a sum of over $26,000.

After having money.

Bai Chen didn't go to buy medicine; instead, he went to the weapon shop immediately.

This disease won't kill you anytime soon, but if you have money but no gun, you might die at any moment.
