Typically, the registration process for the supernaturals is quite tedious.
It involves undergoing a series of official tests, confirmation of whether one truly possesses supernatural power, which type of supernatural category one belongs to, and finally the classification of levels, to determine the specific treatment one is entitled to.
However, there are always exceptions to everything.
Under the stare of public scrutiny, Xu Xi suppressed the foundational mythical beast with one hand, leaving the crowd on site utterly dumbfounded by his commanding presence.
It was so breathtaking that it was just shy of being utterly terrifying.
As such,
A few minutes later, Xu Xi was respectfully ushered into the Director's office of the branch, with a specially assigned person offering him steaming hot tea, informing him that the Director would be shortly arriving.
"It indeed saves a lot of time, surprisingly."
Inside the office, Xu Xi sat on the guest's soft leather chair, taking a light sip of the hot tea, feeling rather amazed.
Although he didn't mind following bureaucratic procedures, registering step by step.
However, if he could skip it entirely.
That would certainly be even better.
After all, nobody wants to waste time.
Narrowing his eyes, Xu Xi recalled the earlier situation: "The foundational mythical beast escaped, and the personnel from the Supernatural United Bureau couldn't subdue it immediately. They treated me with immense respect."
"From this, it's not difficult to infer that Golden Core stage, or Golden Core level supernaturals…"
"Are rather scarce in the real world."
"At least that's the case in Yanshan City."
After making a rough estimation, Xu Xi had a basic understanding of the real-world situation. Now, he was just waiting for the Director of the Yanshan City branch of the Supernatural United Bureau to arrive.
After about ten minutes.
A middle-aged man with a square face rushed into the room, appearing quite excited.
"My apologies for the wait, Mr. Xu Xi!"
"I am the director of the Yanshan City Supernatural United Bureau, Zhang Yaoguo."
Facing Zhang Yaoguo's outstretched hand, Xu Xi too stood up and reached out his hand in politeness, "Nice to meet you, Director Zhang, I'm Xu Xi."
Seeing Xu Xi's polite and mild-mannered nature,
The middle-aged man's expression visibly eased.
As the director of the branch of the Supernatural United Bureau, Zhang Yaoguo had seen too many people over the years who acted arrogantly due to their abilities.
Therefore, upon hearing that a Golden Core stage cultivator had arrived,
Zhang Yaoguo was excited but also worried about Xu Xi's temperament.
Now it seems.
There's plenty of room for cooperation between both parties.
"Please have a seat, Mr. Xu", both sat across the black office desk.
Director Zhang struggled to contain his inner excitement, and assuming his usual serious work demeanor, spoke to Xu Xi: "I am fully aware of the specific incident. On behalf of the Yanshan City Supernatural United Bureau, I would like to express our gratitude to you for your assistance."
"Furthermore, I heard that you intend to join the United Bureau?"
"I warmly welcome you to join us, Mr. Xu. However, according to the regulations, I need to ask a few basic questions."
Xu Xi nodded: "Yes, I do want to join the United Bureau. Feel free to ask any question."
Zhang Yaoguo was overjoyed.
Five years since the resurgence of spirit qi, a fair number of strong individuals have emerged nationwide. However, with a bit being taken by this bureau, and another bit by that bureau, the aggregate strong individuals left for the main bureau in the capital turn out to be rather few.
That's why a trivial Foundation Building Tiger Monster managed to escape, without the Yanshan United Supernatural Bureau being able to catch it immediately.
Simply because they had no one capable of doing so.
Should Xu Xi join the United Bureau, having such a Golden Core cultivator potentially bolster the strength and prestige of the Yanshan’s Supernatural United Bureau greatly!
Following this, Zhang Yaoguo started questioning.
Zhang Yaoguo: "May I ask Mr. Xu, how did you awaken your powers?"
Xu Xi: "I was asleep at home when I suddenly received the inheritance of a cultivator, breaking through overnight and forming the golden core."
Zhang Yaoguo: "Mr. Xu, your luck... truly extraordinary! Do you know the identity of the cultivator?"
Xu Xi: "I only know that they are from a cultivation sect called the Heavenly Sword Sect, I'm not sure about the other details."
Zhang Yaoguo: "One last question, could Mr. Xu please show his golden core cultivation level?"
Xu Xi: "Of course."
Xu Xi opened his palms, the mana circulated and connected with the golden core in his body, reflecting each other, embodying through his life magic.
Golden core energy even emanated from his body, shining brilliantly with golden light.
No need for doubts.
And no room for doubts.
The unique life magic operations of a real golden core person, and the bright golden core energy from inside the body, sufficiently proves that Xu Xi is an authentic grandmaster of the golden core stage.
"It is indeed a Golden Core cultivation level!" Zhang Yaoguo's joy on his face deepened.
Upon witnessing this, the last hint of reservation in his heart vanished. He quickly began discussing with Xu Xi about benefits, as well as possible issues he would face after joining the bureau.
A minimum monthly wage of 300,000 Huaxia coins. Completing tasks or participating in official collaborations will bring additional rewards.
And also,
There is an exclusive online shopping platform for supernatural beings within the bureau.
Called Supernatural Home.
Transactions can only be made using the points circulating within the bureau.
As a Golden Core cultivator, Xu Xi enjoys a monthly benefit of 1000 points. He can freely trade these on Supernatural Home for resources needed for cultivation.
Similarly, he can also use these points to exchange for intelligence within Supernatural Home.
The uses are very wide.
Xu Xi pondered, "If you calculate it like this, the cost-effectiveness of 1000 points on Supernatural Home is pretty high, much more than the previously mentioned salary of 300,000 Huaxia coins."
Without a hint of doubt, Xu Xi was quite satisfied.
I provide combat power.
You provide compensation.
Both parties get what they want, it's a win-win.
After signing the contract symbolically and entering his identity information, Xu Xi officially became a member of the Yanshan City Supernatural United Bureau. Zhang Yaoguo's expression visibly brimmed with joy.
"Hahaha, we are colleagues now, Mr. Xu."
Zhang Yaoguo laughed heartily, and his attitude had obviously softened compared to before. His gaze at Xu Xi now had an added confirmation of recognizing someone as part of his own.
"With your addition to our team, things will be much easier for Yanshan’s Supernatural United Bureau. We don’t have to frequently call for reinforcements from the main bureau anymore."
"The first month's salary of 300,000 Huaxia coins and 1,000 points will be deposited into your account soon."
"Besides, this is a small token from me."
"Consider it a token of my appreciation for you joining Yanshan’s Supernatural United Bureau and also for suppressing the Foundation Building Tiger Monster."
Director Zhang handed Xu Xi a storage ring with a smile.
Hmm.
The storage ring was indeed tiny.
Yet, what it contained inside was another matter entirely.
Upon briefly checking its contents, Xu Xi raised an eyebrow. It was so decadent, so very disrespectful to his self-control. He decided he was going to take it home and seriously ponder over it.
So, Xu Xi decisively accepted the storage ring.
Both Zhang Yaoguo and Xu Xi caught each others' eye and burst into laughter.
"Brother Zhang, I could tell at once you are a good man."
"Haha, Brother Xu, you're truly discerning! Becoming a golden elixir practitioner so quickly, you’re truly a dragon among men!"
Bursts of laughter echoed again.
The air was filled with sounds of uninhibited joy.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
e vast world of cultivation, where he becomes the master of the Heavenly Ruins Sacred Hall, a dying old man with barely a tenth of his former cultivation remaining. He is immediately confronted with a deadly crisis: his subordinates have rebelled, and his protectors are forcing him to abdicate. At the critical moment, the system descends from the heavens: [Ding! The host has been detected facing a life-or-death crisis. The system is now officially activated!] [As a gift, you have received the Supreme Beginner’s Pack and awakened the ultimate cheat: ten thousand years of pure cultivation essence every second!] Yin Tianjue: “Wait… ten thousand years of cultivation every second? That’s six hundred thousand years a minute, and in one day… I can’t even calculate it. Either way, I’m already invincible!” You’re a peerless prodigy rarely seen in ten thousand years? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re an undying ancestor who has guarded a sacred land for countless ages? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...
