Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Chapter 162 The End of the World (End)

Mo Ying returned on the morning he was about to leave this world, and Lin Xiaoqian almost thought he wouldn't make it back.

He exuded a strong aura of detachment, making people hesitant to offend him. Lin Xiaoqian and the others even felt a sense of oppression emanating from him.

However, as soon as Mo Ying saw Lin Xiaoqian and the others, she smiled, as if spring water had broken through the ice, and the sense of distance and estrangement immediately disappeared.

Lin Xiaoqian asked, "Moying, where have you been these past few days?"

Mo Ying skillfully took a bottle of soda from the beverage cabinet and drank it down in a big gulp.

"Originally, I was looking for someone, but the spiritual energy in this world was too rich, and the spiritual energy in my body was too abundant. I suddenly felt like I was about to break through, so I found a cave and started cultivating inside. I almost forgot about the time, but fortunately I woke up in time and came back."

He gained a lot in this world. Not only did his cultivation break through, but thanks to that wisp of Primordial Purple Qi, his Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline was activated, and he has now successfully grown to seven tails. With the Primordial Purple Qi, it is only a matter of time before he grows to eight or nine tails.

Upon learning that Mo Ying's cultivation had greatly improved, Lin Xiaoqian and the others were happy for him.

Mo Ying looked at the room full of wild animals with surprise. They were kept in cages and were quite quiet.

"What have you all been doing while I was away? Where did you get so many strange animals?"

Because he had been in seclusion for nearly ten days, Mo Ying was unaware of this.

After briefly recounting the events of the past few days, Lin Xiaoqian suddenly remembered something. Seeing that there was still some time, she said to Mo Ying, "Mo Ying, since the spiritual energy in this world is so abundant, can humans in this world cultivate immortality?"

Lin Xiaoqian and Jiang Shuang had talked about this before. After all, the world seems to be evolving as if it has abandoned humanity. If this continues, humanity will eventually be eliminated by the world.

As a fellow human being, Lin Xiaoqian couldn't bear it and thought she should help if she could.

Lin Xiaoqian also secretly used a magic tool to test the spiritual roots of Shen Yimin and the others, but it was unclear whether they were born without spiritual roots or whether humans in this world were simply unable to cultivate, as the magic tool showed no reaction whatsoever.

They hadn't been cultivating for very long and only had a superficial understanding of cultivation. They could only find answers when Mo Ying returned.

Mo Ying shook his head: "I have been in seclusion cultivating and have never seen anyone in this world, so I have no way of judging."

That's easy. The closest place to the restaurant is Boss Huang's Hope Base. For a great demon like Mo Ying, that distance is just a moment's time, and there's no need to use a flying vehicle.

Lin Xiaoqian told him the location of the base, and Mo Ying, who had just returned, went out again.

They came back very quickly this time.

When Mo Ying returned, his brows were furrowed. Seeing this, Lin Xiaoqian and the others had already prepared for the worst.

But I still need a concrete answer from Mo Ying: "Mo Ying, what's wrong? Can humans in this world cultivate immortality?"

Mo Ying pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "The humans in this world... the situation is somewhat complicated. I went to see the people at that base, and they showed no signs of spiritual roots at all, but some of them seemed to have a special energy fluctuation within them. This energy was very powerful, but I couldn't determine what this energy fluctuation meant. I wanted to go and investigate, but I was stopped by the Heavenly Dao of this world..."

Mo Ying possessed the primordial purple energy generated by heaven and earth, making it easy for him to sense the warnings from the Heavenly Dao.

"Perhaps the humans in this world have their own unique way of evolution, and they don't necessarily have to follow the path of cultivation," Mo Ying said quietly.

Lin Xiaoqian seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that humans in this world were not incapable of evolution, but perhaps the time had not yet come.

Every world has its own way of developing, and they shouldn't interfere too much with the path of human evolution in that world.

Lin Xiaoqian looked at everyone and said slowly, "It's about time, let's go back."

"Doomsday World Mission Completed. Reward: Restaurant Expansion Area * 1000 square meters"

Current level: Master Chef

Countdown to the next time travel: 240:00:00

The system not only upgraded Lin Xiaoqian's level from professional chef to culinary master, but also rewarded her with an expanded restaurant area, which surprised and delighted her.

The restaurant door opened, and Chen Yuan was startled by the various strange and grotesque wild animals inside.

"Hey Xiao Qian, what kind of world did you go to? What kind of things did you bring back?" Chen Yuan was staring into the eyes of a bird with a human face but only one leg, and he felt a little creeped out.

There were also some creatures with human feet and hands, whose true appearances were unrecognizable. Chen Yuan suspected that the world Lin Xiaoqian was going to was likely a world where technology had developed to the point of being insane, otherwise how could they conduct such horrific human experiments?

Lin Xiaoqian quickly explained to Chen Yuan that they were going to a post-apocalyptic world.

Chen Yuan nodded repeatedly. Yes, those apocalyptic movies that have been shown, where the people in them become neither human nor ghost, and these things in front of him were brought from the apocalyptic world, then that makes sense.

But then Lin Xiaoqian said that these were all creatures from the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Chen Yuan's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas? Those creatures actually exist?" Chen Yuan felt his understanding had been completely overturned.

Lin Xiaoqian explained, "The post-apocalyptic world we went to is a bit different from the one in the movie. The creatures in that world have begun to evolve, and many creatures similar to those described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas have appeared. We brought them back for two reasons: first, to create a photo book version of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and second, to let the relevant experts in our world study them."

Chen Yuan nodded, understanding in his heart, but looking at the room full of strange creatures, especially some of which had human characteristics, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

He suppressed his discomfort, had people come in and carry the wild animals away, and then contacted his superiors to send some animal and plant experts over.

Now, the country is developing rapidly, and top experts in various fields will occasionally 'disappear'. Most people in the industry know that they must have received a secret mission from the country to conduct research.

Haven't you noticed that the country has new gadgets appearing every day?

To the untrained eye, the country is currently making great strides in science and medicine, and the plant and animal experts originally thought it had nothing to do with them, but unexpectedly they suddenly received a call from the military.

With joy and anticipation, they quickly packed their bags and headed to the designated location.

When they arrived at the military region and signed the confidentiality agreement, they were astonished to see the room full of strange creatures, their eyes widening in disbelief.

Are these carbon-based life forms?
