Era of the transmigrating earth-Chapter 1983: Beginning to Grasp the Essence of the World

On the podium, the teacher kept repeating, emphasizing all kinds of precautions. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Listen up, all of you. Although your age will reach the requirements this year, only those who have already cultivated can enter the Otherworld at sixteen to enhance their strength and embark on the path of evolution. Those are the ones who’ve been familiar with these things since childhood."

"You are all ordinary people, without strong family support, so you don’t have these things. Therefore, you must not risk entering the Otherworld. Dying in the Otherworld comes with very severe consequences."

Du You was certainly aware; this world refers to the Derived World as the Outer World, meaning areas outside the domain of this world.

Entering these worlds, although not with one’s own body, results in significant weakening of one’s own strength upon death. After three deaths, you lose the qualification to enter those worlds, becoming an ordinary person from then on.

The most direct impact is that in the real world, your body will become ordinary, with the conditions of birth, aging, sickness, and death. Even just getting sick will make these people feel unusually uncomfortable.

Moreover, it seems there are many places in this world that can demonstrate one’s strength; without power, one won’t be taken seriously.

It can be said that ordinary people without strength are at the very bottom of society, looked down upon everywhere they go.

Those great families seem to have mastered some self-enhancement methods, but in Du You’s analysis, they might not be too strong. Otherwise, the death rates among those families wouldn’t be so high.

Sixteen-year-olds can enter, but these ordinary people generally spend more time in this world learning and training using the ordinary methods passed down by the schools.

Typically, they train until eighteen before choosing to enter the Other World.

Because eighteen is the last age. This is somewhat different from Earth. If someone has not become an adventurer by eighteen, they will have no hope for life and can only remain an ordinary person.

Similarly, the first time entering the Outer World has the highest mortality rate.

Of course, this is true for ordinary people; for Du You, there is no real danger. Aren’t they just some normal worlds? His own Spiritual Power can reach tier three levels, allowing him to ignore most dangers.

Three-tier strength isn’t weak; whether controlling people or directly attacking, it shows considerable prowess. If Du You wanted, he could easily and effortlessly shake a house with his Spiritual Power; this isn’t something ordinary people can achieve.

The teacher was still on the stage, loudly listing all precautions, repeating them again and again. But Du You’s mind had already wandered off. Understanding the cultivation essence of this world, how could Du You not be excited?

"Hey, Du You, you’re not thinking about going to the Outer World, are you? The teacher said it’s really dangerous there."

A weak-looking little girl gently tugged at Du You’s clothes and said.

Returning to his senses, Du You looked at her, feeling some helplessness. This little girl, like him, had a low sense of presence, probably due to similar experiences. It gave her a different feeling towards him.

No one else ever approached him, yet this one who seemed like a kindred spirit was always around him.

"Xiaobai, I think you should doll yourself up a bit; you’re actually very pretty."

Du You said helplessly. Xiaobai in front of him was actually quite beautiful, easily scoring above ninety. She just never dressed up, her hair loose and wearing big glasses, covering herself tightly.

Her beauty is completely unnoticed; otherwise, she wouldn’t be overlooked like him all the time.

Xiaobai’s face flushed a little: "Don’t call me Xiaobai; I have a name."

Always so shy, Du You felt a headache coming on. Such a character is hardly suitable for battling in the Outer World. But Du You couldn’t take care of all that; he came to this world not for fun.

"Okay, okay, I understand. No matter what I do, I have boundaries and won’t act recklessly."

Du You didn’t say he wouldn’t go, but Xiaobai seems easily fooled, really believing Du You wouldn’t act randomly. "Then I’m relieved. Then, we’ll enter the Outer World together, and there’ll be nothing to fear."

Xiaobai clenched her small fists, seeming to psych herself up. Right now, it’s just Du You seeing her cute appearance. Both were in a corner of the classroom, unnoticed by others.

Looking at her outfit, there’s really no way it looks good anyway.

If someone overhears their conversation, they’d probably ridicule them quite a bit.

Only after school let out did Du You let out a breath of relief, quickly returning home and heading straight to the basement. There, a hibernation cabin was already present in the room.

This was secretly acquired by Du You through manufacturing special medicines and selling them for the money. Otherwise, he couldn’t buy this with just the wealth left by his parents; he’d have to use public facilities like others.

Public hibernation cabins are all recorded, and if not approved by guardians and school, one’s not allowed to use them. If you want to enter early, having your own hibernation cabin is a must.

"I wonder what it’ll feel like entering the Outer World; I just hope I can smoothly enter."

While speaking, Du You lay inside. As soon as the hibernation cabin was activated, Du You felt a surge of world power fill it. This wasn’t the effect of the hibernation cabin but the power of the world’s will.

It seems the so-called hibernation cabin is just a form recognized by the world’s will, a sort of pass.

What really makes a difference is this special world power. Du You sensed his soul gradually separating from this body. It’s not his Origin, but just a remnant soul natively possessed by the body, transformed into a soul by Du You’s modification. This bit of world power still couldn’t shake his Origin.

Du You didn’t resist and let the world power carry away that piece of soul. Meanwhile, his Origin always maintained a special connection with this soul, even if this soul was extracted to another world.

The flow of time is completely different on both sides, and if not for Du You’s strong Origin, this feeling might cause an average person to collapse. To say this special perspective, it was indeed Du You’s first time experiencing it.

Within this feeling, Du You seemed to understand something, yet seemed to understand nothing, feeling extraordinarily marvelous.
