Chapter 570: An Jing Academy

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

In the cultivation world, when there was a difference in language, one only needed to purchase a language jade letter and he could learn all about that language in a few breaths. However, that was impossible here. This should be an ordinary planet that didn’t have anything like spiritual will jade letters.

Mo Wuji decided that he would first find a place with books and learn the languages and texts here. Even though he lost all his abilities, he was still a Xuan Immortal. Not eating and drinking shouldn’t pose a problem to him.

Right at this moment, a clamoring noise could be heard in front of him. Mo Wuji hurriedly moved towards the noise and to his astonishment, he saw a woman in ragged clothing being dragged on the road by a car.

The woman had already fainted, and because of the rough surface of the road, there were scars continuously being formed on her body. She looked no better than Mo Wuji.

”E E…[1]” A sharp voice cried out behind Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji turned and saw a thin figure furiously charging to the car that was dragging the woman.

Mo Wuji only needed a single glance to tell that it was the little boy that bought him the bus ticket.

Mo Wuji hurriedly took a few steps forward. However, he couldn’t even help himself now, much less help others.

At his instant, that little boy had already grabbed the rope that was dragging the woman. Fortunately, the car stopped. A man with an indifferent expression stepped out from the car. Following which, a few soldiers came forward.

The little boy remained fearless, bawling as he shouted towards the man and the soldiers.. Thereafter, he turned towards the crowd and said something loudly. The crowd then seemed to support this boy.

After some time, a man that looked like a squad leader walked over and said a few sentences to the soldiers surrounding the little boy. Thereafter, the soldiers actually removed the woman from the ropes.

The little boy hurriedly tried to support the woman up, but unfortunately, he was too weak and wasn’t able to do it immediately. Mo Wuji wanted to go forward and help, but by this time, two people from the crowd had already helped the little boy and brought the woman to the side of the road.

Only at this time did Mo Wuji get a clear look at the woman: her eyes were closed tight, there were spots of blood all over her face, her hair was messied and there were rope marks all over her neck.

With the support of several people from the crowd, the boy supported the woman out of the road. After some time, they disappeared.

At this point, Mo Wuji felt rather worried. He didn’t know why that woman was being dragged on the road, but regardless of the reason, it wasn’t a good sign. This place definitely wasn’t a kind place.

It was best if he understood where he was immediately. Mo Wuji roamed around the streets for some time before finally discovering a book store.

The book store was not much different from book stores back on Earth. There were many people picking up books and reading them. Mo Wuji hurriedly entered walked in. He tried his best to conceal himself among the crowd, to avoid the notice of the workers here.

After all, with his current appearance, if the manager of the book store were to see him, he would very likely get chased out.

Mo Wuji soon discovered the book shelves that contained books on the language here. Even though Mo Wuji’s spiritual will wasn’t enough to open his storage ring or his Undying World, he did have a bit of spiritual will. Moreover, he was also a Xuan Immortal. With the help of these books, he only needed half a day to have a good grasp of the language here.

Thereafter, things became simpler. Mo Wuji started to flip through the maps as well as history books. A rough image of this world formed within his mind.

He was currently in a country called Liang, and Liang wasn’t the biggest power here. Above Liang, there was a religious school called the East Mon Religion. It also had another name called the True Mon Religion.

This city he was in was called An Jin, it was a decent sized city in Liang.

Additionally, Mo Wuji found various kinds of technological devices in this book store, such as electronic books, intelligent notebooks, books that could speak, etc….

What left Mo Wuji surprised was that he found some books about cultivation the mind. Even though these books seemed to have unintelligible content, it was enough to show that the people here cultivated. This left Mo Wuji elated; if they could cultivate, it meant that they could absorb spiritual energy.

As an immortal, spiritual energy was dispensable to Mo Wuji. But now, it was the most important thing to him. He needed to recover his power, so first, he would need to recover his spiritual will. Then, with his spiritual will, he could open his ring and use the things inside to regain his power.

”The book store is closing. Everyone, please return your books and leave the book store.” A loudspeaker sounded beside Mo Wuji’s ear. Mo Wuji only just realised that except for one to two other people, most of the people in the book store were already gone.

He hurriedly returned the book in his hands and walked out of the book store.

To him, this day’s worth of reading was enough. He wasn’t seeking to learn about the things in this world, he only needed a rough understanding.

A young girl walked out of the book store at the same time as Mo Wuji. When she lifted her head and saw Mo Wuji, she subconsciously hastened her footsteps.

Mo Wuji, on the other hand, stopped, and said apologetically, ”Hello, may I ask how I may get to An Jing Academy?”
