I am collecting entries in reincarnation

Chapter 27 Return
Time flies, the sun and the moon pass by, and before I knew it, twenty-four years have passed.

The little Wu who used to be chased by inspectors and run around the streets has become a leading figure in the Wu Science Academy. And Academician Li, who helped Wu Wang so much and also created so many obstacles in his growth, who was always laughing, scolding, but also a secretive person, is now gray-haired and getting weaker.

Today, Wu Wang took some time out to visit his life mentor.

Walk through a gate and into a quiet courtyard.

"Hey, isn't this the dean of Wuda? How come you have time to come and see me, an old fw, today?"

Before entering the door, you can hear its voice.

But Wu Wang was already used to it, and replied indifferently.

"If I publish a book about my experiences with you over the years, titled 'My Days Working with the First Head of Datong', it will surely be very popular."

Li Ming, who was lying on the recliner, had a strange look on his face. He sighed slowly and said, "You're no fun anymore. Don't you know the truth about seeing things but not speaking them out, and about not exposing people when they're in trouble? By the way, when did you find out?"

"It was probably after the Fairy Street incident. Old Zhu was clearly arrested by the inspection team, but he was released the next day. Nothing happened to him afterwards. He was even promoted soon after, and his career has been smooth sailing. This incident didn't cause any adverse effects."

Wu Wang replied.

"Isn't the saying 'pretending to be foolish while being wise' referring to people like you? Good boy, I've taught you a lesson by pretending to be stupid." Li Ming laughed, but coughed several times in succession, and the dejected look on his face became even heavier.

Wu Wang's face changed and he said, "Why don't you go to the Central Hospital? They have the best medical facilities and can definitely help you."

"No need, ahem." Li Ming interrupted with a wave of his hand. "What's the point of lingering on? Every generation has its own talented people. My time has passed. Since the Minister of Culture passed away five years ago, I don't even have a single person I can confide in. What's the point of living like this?"

"The meaning of survival is simply to see how far this country can go and what you can accomplish. Very good, you didn't disappoint me!"

"But you came at the right time. I have something to tell you."

"I'd like to hear the details!" Wu Wang also became solemn at this moment.

"Although it has gone through several setbacks, the development of martial arts has at least been maintained. However, more and more people are now saying that the development of martial arts is unnecessary. The Academy of Martial Arts has not produced any outstanding research results in several years and seems to have reached a bottleneck."

"That's right!" Wu Wang nodded.

"There are quite a few martial arts masters who have reached the third stage of Qi Condensation nowadays. However, just like the peak of Qi and Blood Martial Arts in the past, the Grandmaster of Energy Transformation is the end of the martial arts path. No matter what, we can't move forward. All we can do is to refine and polish it, and do our best to achieve the smallest results."

Wu Wang knew in his heart that this old man in front of him had not only reached the pinnacle of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, but was also the founder of True Qi Martial Arts. If there was one person in this world who could solve this problem, it would be him!
"The crime that is not human may be limited by heaven and earth!" Li Ming's eyes were dim, like an ancient well without ripples.

"Heaven and earth?" Wu Wang muttered to himself, chewing on it silently in his heart.

Li Ming nodded and continued, "It's like an invisible barrier, blocking everyone who wants to move forward. According to my assumption, above the third-stage Qi Condensation Martial Arts Grandmaster, there should be the Martial God realm. Once you reach this realm, you can eat wind and drink dew, and your need for the outside world will be greatly reduced."

Then he let out a long hum, revealing a hint of sadness.

"Unfortunately, the world is devoid of spirits, and I can never take that step forward. I can only rely on food and nourishment to refine my essence and transform it into Qi. I am locked in the third stage of Qi Condensation, unable to break through."

Wu Wang nodded, not quite understanding what he meant.

Seeing Wu Wang like this, Li Ming knew that it was difficult for him to explain. This was actually his own guess based on his experience of reading many books over the years, and it could not be said to be 100% correct.

"What a pity, I'm afraid I can't verify this idea. Alas, I'm old and can't stand the cold. Please help me close the doors and windows. It's a bit cold." Wu Wang was stunned. Looking at the skinny old man in front of him, he couldn't imagine that he used to be so powerful and capable, directing the country, formulating a century-long national policy, and single-handedly pacifying the world. Even when he was an academician of the Martial Academy, he looked like a hermit.

But now, he looks like an old man in his sixties, and even his eyes, which have always been deep and mysterious, have become cloudy.

"What are you doing standing still?"

"Oh oh." Wu Wang finally woke up from his dream and walked to the windowsill and closed the window. Just then, a group of northern geese flew south, and their reflections were reflected in the eyes of both of them.

Li Ming paused, his eyes half-open and half-closed, and he began to chant again.

"The southern geese are faintly flying back in formation. The snow has cleared, and the walls are shady, yet the tender orchid buds seem to be noticeable. In the middle of the night, a dream washes away the sleepiness of the wine. The incense in the stove curls, and the lamp is dim.

The fleeting time is but a moment. The past joys still linger in my mind. The blooming season after the twelfth lunar month is approaching. The winter plum blossoms are the harbinger of the east wind.

When Wu Wang heard this, he felt a little more emotional. He was about to turn around and say something, but his expression suddenly changed. At this moment, the last dead leaf in the yard slowly fell with the wind.

Li Ming was in a trance. His memory of Zhang Mingyu's life had become much more blurred. His laughter, anger, joy, sorrow, and the people and things that had accompanied him for half his life seemed to have vanished like smoke.

If Li Ming was still Zhang Mingyu, he might be very disappointed, but as the young monk Mingxin, he only felt a little emotional.

Li Ming then focused his attention on the harvest this time.

"Holy crap! I've worked so hard my whole life, and it's still all green!"

"Wait, if what I'm thinking is correct, then this means that the world is actually divided into different levels. In a world where it's impossible to break through to the innate realm, perhaps green is already the highest level of achievement."

　Brothers, I have had a terrible toothache these past two days, which has really affected my writing. I went to the dentist. I only have one chapter today, sorry.
