Chapter 239 Astral Projection!

In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.

Lin Hao, who was participating in labor reform, did not receive any drinks from the wealthy women.

This means that he failed to complete the mission after being pulled into the secret realm.

It's not that Lin Hao lacks good looks and no one wants to hire him; it's that Lin Hao fails to provide the emotional value that others desire.

Regardless of what others say about coming here, ask yourself honestly: are you really looking for a male model to be your soulmate? Or are you just looking for a close friend you know inside and out?

In this place, lovers are not considered criminals for not knowing each other's names.

But for Lin Hao, who was sent to the labor camp, let alone a kiss, he refused to even touch her face or chest or whisper sweet nothings in her ear.

Before cultivating immortality, it was enough to provide emotional value to people in order to survive. But after cultivating immortality, it's no longer possible to provide emotional value to people.

Moreover, when Lin Hao clearly understood his true intentions and refused to flatter, the progress of his transformation from a fragmented core to a golden core actually accelerated slightly.

[By transcending the mundane world without falling into its trap, and by fully understanding one's own heart, the Great Way can be achieved.]

Moreover, there are times when Lin Hao really struggles to provide emotional support.
Drunk woman A: "You men are all the same! You checked my phone and my hotel records! I told you nothing happened that night, why won't you believe me!"

Drunk woman B: "Everyone says they like the faint milky scent on me, so why can't they accept that I have a child?"

The drunk woman, C: "It wasn't easy for my family to support my education. My younger brother is the apple of our eye. Can't I give him my dowry to buy him a house? I've given him my whole life!"

The drunken woman: "."

Whenever he encountered such situations, Lin Hao felt that as a cultivator, it was difficult for him to enlighten others.

However, this was already considered good. What Lin Hao found even more unacceptable was that the male models who came were also men.

"I married her only because of the influence of family tradition, but after seeing you today, I feel that I have met my true love."

"Don't you think that the reason why opposite sexes appreciate each other is because of hormones, while same sexes can understand each other better?"

"."

Faced with this situation, Lin Hao didn't even wait for the other party to ask to stop the shift; he simply couldn't stay any longer.

Faced with the threat of increased time spent in labor camps and the depletion of basic subsidies, Lin Hao said that these were nothing.

Having adapted to this physical body recently, it can now go without sleep, rest, food, or water, and has no problem surviving on air and dew.

If it weren't for the need to complete the mission within this secret realm, Lin Hao wouldn't have planned to leave.

Of course, Lin Hao had considered leaving.

However, whenever Lin Hao had such a thought, his log would pop up with a message that he had almost failed to transform into a mortal and was about to fall into a state of demonic possession.

It's better to play it safe and wait a bit; it won't hurt.

On such a day, starlight once again graced the sky above this secret realm, and a restless atmosphere began to rise again.

The college students who came for their internships walked in from outside, leaning against the wall.

"Brother, are you waiting for customers at the door so early?"

Seeing Lin Hao standing among the male models, the college student limped over to his side. They were classmates, so it was normal for them to be close to each other.

However, the way the college students walked today was not quite normal.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Hao asked.

"That's a bit complicated to explain," the college student said, looking embarrassed and annoyed.

"How about we make this quick and to the point?"

Lin Hao was still very curious. Did he go out with clients last night and have such a wild time?
Lin Hao remembers that the customer was so drunk that he could barely walk, and the college student had to help him up with some difficulty.

While the college student was helping the other person up, he kept muttering to himself:
"Don't underestimate me, I didn't just eat protein powder for nothing!"

He seemed very enthusiastic, but after just one night, he not only looked listless, but also appeared to be injured.

"Brother, I've always been quite single-minded in my pursuit of beauty, do you believe me?" the college student asked.

"I believe you." Lin Hao offered a ladder.

"Brother, I actually have a girlfriend. I came here not only for an internship, but also so that my girlfriend and I can have a better life," the college student continued.

“That’s perfectly normal. We create our own good life.” Lin Hao offered another suggestion.

"But last night, my girlfriend cheated on me!"

When the college student got to this point, his eyes were red! He was trembling with anger and cold.

"Do you know where I ran into her?! I ran into her at a hotel! She was helping an older man, who was even older than her, check into a room!"

So why did you send the guest home so late at night? Why did you send him back to the hotel? This time, Lin Hao couldn't offer him a helping hand anymore.

But now that things have come to this point, it's like urinating—you can't hold it in, you can't stop it, and Lin Hao doesn't need to offer a ladder anymore.

"My injuries were all caused by her!" the college student said angrily.
"The old man she brought to the hotel was my guest's husband, and that old man beat me up."

Lin Hao:
At this point, a male model standing in front of the two turned around and whispered:
"So, how much compensation did you ask for after you were beaten up last night?"

Upon hearing this, the college student's indignant expression softened considerably, and he held up three fingers.

"Three thousand! That's quite a lot!"

But upon hearing this, the male model standing in front of the two men looked disdainful and extended his hand:
"That's too little money, you're asking for far too little."

Upon hearing this, the college students immediately became anxious:

"How could it be less? That's a month's salary for many of my classmates! Some of my classmates in medical school have to put that much money out of their own pockets every month!"

The male model remained unperturbed by the college student's rebuttal, extending his hand and calmly saying:
"Anyway, the guests haven't arrived yet. Little brother, give me your first cigarette and I'll teach you how to properly handle this kind of situation."

Next, the senior colleague talked about the time and place of being beaten, whether he fought back, the brand of the assailant's clothes, watch, and manner of speaking, and then about the acting techniques for examining injuries and headaches.

“If you follow my method, it will cost at least 30,000! And I have a specialized medical examination agency that I can recommend to you!” The senior leisurely took the last puff of his cigarette.

"I've learned so much! I wish this had been taught in college!" The college student's expression of complete understanding was very gratifying to the senior student as well.

Lin Hao, standing to the side, listened silently while glancing at the updated logbook in front of him.

Amidst the rising dust and turbidity of the mortal world, and the entanglements of worldly karma, Lin Hao's resolve to pursue the Dao only strengthened.

[The Golden Elixir is within reach!]

The Great Way is in sight!

At this moment, with the improvement of his state of mind, Lin Hao's golden core only had a few cracks left.

Today, the first guest to arrive was a tall girl who vomited blood in the bathroom a week ago.

She spotted Lin Hao among the male models at a glance, stepped forward, opened her bag, and handed him a paper bag sealed in an envelope.

"Thank you for saving me that day. This is just a small token of my appreciation. Thank you."

Yes, it is indeed a small token of my appreciation. This envelope doesn't look that thick.

However, Lin Hao felt that he hadn't done anything special in saving the person.

If they weren't in a secret realm, as long as he could channel his magic power into the tall girl's body, most illnesses would be easily cured.

"no, I'm fine."

"You want what you want."

"no, I'm fine."

"You want what you want."

The two men pushed the thin stack of envelopes back and forth, but Lin Hao thought this wasn't a solution. Perhaps...
Is he trying to take advantage of someone's kindness?
"Why don't you ask me for a favor? Open a bottle of wine for me. It doesn't have to be too expensive, just a little bit more expensive than the basic one."

The tall girl readily agreed to Lin Hao's request.

Inside the private room, Lin Hao used the drink menu to open the extra bottle of beverage he had ordered.

The tall girl screamed and clapped, exclaiming how handsome he was!
Lin Hao waved his hand, indicating that these were all basic procedures.

I worked at a male model shop for a week, and I learned by watching.

Meanwhile, the text on the drinks menu in Lin Hao's hand became distorted:
"Congratulations, you have completed the mission."

The moment the mission was completed, Lin Hao could feel that his connection with the secret realm had deepened.

Within the outward-directed divine sense, the originally empty perception underwent a slight change.

He was able to sense the presence of the tall girl in front of him through his divine sense.

This is a pure soul!

It is not the soul after death, but the soul that leaves the body while the physical body is intact.

Expanding one's divine sense outwards, every person in the male model shop is an out-of-body soul.

What's going on with this secret realm?

What about the physical bodies of these souls?
