Courtyard House: My Time Travel is a Bit Too Strong

"Becoming an immortal through the Peaches of Immortality is merely the lowest level of immortality. What Master gave me far surpasses that," Lin Quan said calmly.

"Your master... isn't an immortal?" Wang Zhennan frowned.

"It's been more than that for a long time," Lin Quan answered crisply.

The celestial scriptures record that Guiguzi... a master of formations, who transcended tribulation and entered the realm of gods a thousand years ago.

"Selecting 20,000 people each year puts a lot of pressure on us," Zheng Xian said.

The difficulty in selecting 20,000 elite troops from troops with families lies in selecting the best, not in the quantity.

Fortunately, the limit is only 20,000, which is enough for active and retired military and police personnel.

"Even people in their nineties can come," Lin Quan added.

"That's settled then." Zheng Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

The meeting adjourned, and each deputy director immediately returned to their respective jurisdictions.

After Lin Quan returned to Hunyuan Mountain, he repeatedly forced the Huangzhong plums to ripen.

One morning, he teleported out of the solar system and began refining elixirs and forging weapons, working tirelessly for days on end.

"Nine hundred Huangzhong plums."

"Three thousand six hundred."

"Twenty-one thousand three hundred, that's all."

In less than fifteen days, 20,000 people gathered at the Wuxian Gymnasium.

The people came from different worlds, the oldest being eighty-seven and the youngest twenty-two.

Lin Quan held a ginseng fruit in his hand and walked slowly through the queue.

As soon as the fragrance of the fruit spreads, each person's lifespan will increase by 360 years.

Then, apprentice pills, planetary pills, and star pills were distributed, and everyone took them.

In an instant, the bones and muscles of 20,000 people were reshaped, their blood and qi surged like a tide, and they all reached the peak of the Eternal Star level.

Zhong Guohong's clone used his divine sense to envelop the entire team, passing through the immortal-mortal passage and landing in the wasteland.

He raised his hand and summoned a low-grade divine artifact-level temple, which transformed into the appearance of an ordinary mountain villa.

Each person takes a yellow plum and sits quietly to absorb it.

As the medicinal effects took hold, all 20,000 people broke through to the next level, firmly establishing themselves as ninth-tier Golden Immortals.

He then summoned Ji Taizu, Steward Zhou, and other trusted confidants, and brought them to the mountain villa.

Zhong Guohong briefly recounted the whole story and ordered Ji Taizu to take charge of the temple's refining process.

Leaving behind a batch of divine artifacts, immortal artifacts, cultivation manuals, jade slips, and bottles of elixirs, Zhong Guohong turned and crossed the passage, returning to Hunyuan Mountain in an instant.

With a slight thought, Lin Quan saw Zhong Guohong enter the Earth within the Treasure Basin.

"Three-thousand-year-old and six-thousand-year-old peaches can be used to cultivate celestial immortals in large quantities; nine-thousand-year-old peaches can extend lifespan immeasurably; thirty-thousand-year-old yellow plums can directly elevate mortal bodies to the ninth rank of Golden Immortal. The celestial palaces are just right for planting these two kinds."

He activated the treasure basin, and the illusory image solidified, with peach seedlings and plum seedlings taking shape one after another.

"The celestial realm is abundant with vital energy, and the temple itself possesses the ability to manipulate time. Simply take the clone there and plant it."

After a moment's thought, Lin Quan ordered Zhong Guohong to take hundreds of saplings and head straight to the Immortal Realm.

The higher one's cultivation level, the stronger the treasure basin's ability to absorb nutrients.

The energy gathered in a single day is enough to power dozens of peach seedlings, turning the illusory into reality.

When Emperor Taizu saw him appear, he stepped forward and greeted him: "Mr. Zhong."

Chung Kwok-hung nodded in acknowledgment, then planted saplings, identified tree species, and explained the differences in age and effects between flat peaches and yellow plums.

Although the temple is labeled as a "low-grade divine artifact," its internal formation contains several saint-level restrictions and several divine-level structures.

Even if a god from the divine realm attacked fiercely with a supreme artifact, it would be difficult to shake it in the slightest.

The reason for the lower rank was intentional on Lin Quan's part.

I fear that when the vessel is completed, the heavenly tribulation will be too fierce, which may attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao.

When it was first created, it was just a top-grade immortal artifact; after being tempered by thunder and fire, it was upgraded to a low-grade divine artifact; and after incorporating a trace of primordial energy, it could slowly grow along with its master's cultivation level.

The peaches and plums fell to the ground and took root. Zhong Guohong returned to the mortal realm and re-entered Hunyuan Mountain.

Lin Quan's thoughts shifted again, and Zhong Guohong had already entered the Earth within the Treasure Bowl.

"This mountain belongs to me; demons shall not be allowed to take human form."

He suddenly stood still, his breathing becoming deep and still, and quietly entered a meditative state.

"Above the law are the rules; the law abides by the rules."

"At this point, my understanding of the rules has reached the peak of the human-level saint."

Previously, he was comparable to the peak of a saint in terms of only the level of laws; now, he has grasped the rules themselves.

The power of rules far surpasses that of laws... It is the foundation of laws and the framework of the Great Way.

The Way of Heaven operates based on laws, but rules can transcend the Way of Heaven.

"Your Qi cultivation is stagnant, and your physical body is still weak. It's time to start refining."

He waved his hand to set up a time barrier and began to smelt the Qi and Blood Crystals produced by the Treasure Basin.

"The Dragon Elephant Undying Technique, eighty-second level, makes the body stronger than a low-grade spiritual treasure."

Lingbao is divided into innate and acquired: the former is naturally conceived by heaven and earth, while the latter is forged by human effort.

Generally speaking, innate spiritual treasures and acquired spiritual treasures of the same level have comparable power.

However, the power of a top-tier innate spiritual treasure far surpasses that of a top-tier acquired spiritual treasure.

"The Dragon Elephant Undying Technique, eighty-third level, grants a physical body with a hardness surpassing that of a mid-grade spiritual treasure."

"The 84th level of the Dragon Elephant Undying Technique has achieved a physical body hardness comparable to a top-grade spiritual treasure."

……

"At the 90th level of the Dragon Elephant Undying Technique, the physical body is now equivalent to a top-tier innate treasure."

Lin Quan scanned the treasure basin with his divine sense and found that less than 30% of its energy remained. He then stopped his practice.

If he had enough energy, he could have pushed his physical body to the level of a mid-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure in one go.

Back in the illusionary world, he had reached the ninety-fourth level.

"The level of a low-grade Chaos Spiritual Treasure far surpasses that of a top-grade Innate Treasure. To take this step requires an immense amount of energy... It's absolutely impossible right now."

With his cultivation temporarily put on hold, Lin Quan traveled back and forth between Hunyuan Manor and Paradise Island, thoroughly relaxing his muscles and bones for half a month.

Nine-year-old Lin Wanqian and Lin Wankun have long since stopped attending school and rely on their consciousness helmets for self-study.

Lin Wanjie, Lin Wanyu, and Lin Xiaoyun, who are just over three years old, are in kindergarten.

The school is located on Hunyuan Mountain, and all the teachers are intelligent robots.

After the widespread adoption of awareness helmets, all courses from fourth grade onwards in primary school were canceled, and junior high, high school, and university courses were successively shut down.

You can receive an electronic certificate of completion by completing various educational games.

Students are choosing courses based on their interests, and the number of high achievers in subjects such as physics, mathematics, chemistry, and Chinese is increasing year by year.

Foreign languages ​​are no longer a compulsory subject, and few people choose to take them voluntarily.

Having trouble communicating with foreigners? Put on a translator and you can pick up the conversation instantly.

One machine costs 500 World Coins, two machines cost only 1000.

The purchasing power of the Myriad Realms Coin is roughly equivalent to that of the old Chinese currency.

I always carry two with me. When I meet a foreigner, I hand one over and we start chatting right away.

Many countries overseas have made Chinese a compulsory subject in primary and secondary schools.

With the rise in the status of China and the nation, it's truly difficult to succeed without learning Chinese.

Lin Quan encountered bottlenecks in all three paths of body refinement, spirit refinement, and enlightenment; the existing energy of the Treasure Basin was insufficient to support the Earth-level Saint-level illusion... After much deliberation, Lin Quan decided to enter the illusion to refine his mind.

The power of the mind is formless and intangible, yet it can transform the illusory into the real, making it the most profound of all divine skills.

The deeper one's state of mind, the more freely one can utilize one's mental energy.

He quickly flipped through several movies and TV series before finally choosing Tomb Raider.

"This world is full of traps and dangers; without real skills, you won't survive more than three episodes."

After a moment of concentration, he combined the principles of Northern and Southern boxing, as well as the essentials of internal and external martial arts, to compile a martial arts manual.

"Retains all memories from before the transmigration, and additionally adds foreign language proficiency and the full text of martial arts manuals."

A few minutes later, the treasure basin shimmered, and the Tomb Raider illusion was complete.

A wisp of essence and spirit sank into it, and Lin Quan's true form stood still in place, completely motionless.

It was as if time in the main universe had been suspended.

A thousand years of illusion, a fleeting moment of reality.

……

"I've transmigrated? Sixteen years old, starting high school in two months?"

He glanced down at the black dragon ring on his left index finger and a smirk appeared on his lips.

The body belongs to a Chinese American who lives in London.
