The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1251

(Unedited)

…

Xin Ja can still remember what happened that day and everything seems like a dream. He was falling deeper into that black tunnel that he felt like it was an endless fall.

He slowly opened his eyes and what he saw was a white ceiling.

The strong stench of a weird smell made him frown as he slowly turns his head from side to side.

"Is… Is this an infirmary?" he muttered as he looks at the weird apparatus connected to his body.

Then he noticed several people in white clothes that look like Medical Masters and their assistants. But there is something weird about their clothing. Then he suddenly remembers the records in his unique vision.

"Those are doctors and nurses… Hmm… Wait a minute, am I… on Earth? The planet where my soul came from? Where Shin Jiao did come from?" he thought as he furrowed his brows while watching the scene before him.

Suddenly one of the women seemed to have noticed him moving as she turned towards him.

"Doctor! He's awake!" shouted the young woman.

Suddenly, a middle-aged man wearing a white doctor's coat and a stethoscope hanging on his neck parted the cloth divider.

He looks at Xin Ja and then frowned.

"Are you… an awakened Shen?" the doctor suddenly asked.

Xin Ja suddenly frowned when he heard this. He knew about Shens and that they are powerful beings that rule the Sudan Continent where the Empire of Gong is.

Then suddenly something clicked in his mind and the expression of Xin Ja turned grave. He could remember that time when he enter Shen's abode and discovered the owner of the abode is a Shen named Wang Song, the ancestor of his Master Wang.

In fact, until now he has not revealed this secret to his master. This is because… he did not know what would happen if Master Wang knew about Shen Wang Song.

But now that he has arrived in this place, he knew that he should already tell Master Wang Chanling about this secret.

The confused expression of Xin Ja made the people around him heave a sigh of relief.

"This is good… because if you are an awakened Shen, we could not keep you here and should send you to the Ae city headquarters…" the doctor said.

He then began checking Xin Ja's condition.

"How are you feeling?" the doctor asked.

When the doctor touches Xin Ja he subconsciously uses his absolute sense and scanned the doctor's body. When Xin Ja did this, he was immediately astonished.

How could he not, when the doctor is actually only a normal human being. His physique is as weak as a mortal. But deep inside his body, there is a dormant power that seems to be sleeping.

From one check, Xin Ja knew that if this person really woke that power up, then he did not know how powerful the Ki energy inside of his body is. There might even be a chance that his body would explode if that dormant power suddenly woke up.

But then he is curious as to what is that thing that they called awakened Shens, so he decided to ask.

"Umm… What… What is an awakened Shen?" Xin Ja showed a confused expression.

The doctor looks at him and frowned.

"Hmm… Young man, do you… do you remember your name?" he asked.

Xin Ja closes his eyes and then thought for a while. He would either pretend to be an amnesiac or tell them who he is. But he knew that if they did not find his identity, then he would surely have a problem. So pretending to be an amnesiac is the best way out.

As he opened his eyes, he blinked and then shook his head.

"You don't know your name… Hmm… This is bad… his head might have suffered from that accident." The middle-aged doctor said.

Xin Ja looks at him and could only apologize to the middle-aged doctor in his mind.

But before he could analyze anything, he suddenly noticed a great commotion coming from the entrance of the emergency department.

Then he saw a few wounded people being brought in.

"What happened?" someone asked.

"There was a fight between two awakened, and these people are the victims." The emergency personnel said as they carried inside two stretchers.

When the doctor heard those words, he could not help but cursed in a low voice.

"Damn those people… Did they think that because they are awakened Shens, they can just go on a rampage?"

Xin Ja could see the expression of the doctor which has a hint of anger and envy in it.

Suddenly, from his Unique Vision, he saw in the lower right corner of his sight.

'Creating a door to two worlds… 2% completed.'

When Xin Ja saw that, he was flabbergasted.

"I… I can create a door back to Myrth from here?" he thought as a slightly happy feeling swelled up in his heart.

In fact, he feels really reluctant to leave Myrth as that is the place where he has many people he cared about. How could he just leave like that?

But since there is a chance to return, he would just have to wait for the door to complete, and then he could return.

"Let's just explore this place for the meantime then…" he thought.

Soon his checkup was done and the doctor seems to determine that nothing is wrong with his body. He just suffered some concussion and now he seems fine.

"Can… Can I leave now?" Xin Ja asked the doctor.

The middle-aged doctor frowns.

"I… I don't have any money with me…" Xin Ja lowered his head.

Well, they could not blame the young man… this is because he really did not have any money with him. He only has that weird-looking clothes and they found nothing else in his body when he was taken to the hospital.

The doctor heaves a sigh and then gestured for Xin Ja to follow him.

Xin Ja energetically jumps out of bed and quickly wore his outer robe. Unlike the clothes of the people in this place, he is wearing a robe that is worn by cultivators, so he looks a bit off.

The two walked to the station and the middle-aged doctor looks at Xin Ja then at the person behind the counter.

"This patient wanted to be discharged… I will take care of his bill." The doctor showed a smile on his face.

When the person behind the counter heard that, he showed an awkward smile.

"Doctor Young… it seems that you found another one to help…" he said while smiling.

"Nah, Whatever… I don't have a family to feed anyway." Doctor Young waved his hand.

Xin Ja feels that the doctor is a really good person, so he decided to also help the man.

When he was being checked by Doctor Young, he was also checking Doctor Young's body. And he discovered that the Shen core of his body is actually just sleeping. If he can slowly open the Shen core, then this guy Doctor Young might be able to become an awakened Shen.

But of course, he has to slowly check it first.

"Alright, here is your discharge paper…" Doctor Young handed Xin Ja the discharge paper.

"Umm... Thank you…" Xin Ja bowed.

"No worries… Here, go to this address and they might help you with temporary lodging… just tell them I sent you…" Doctor Young handed Xin Ja a piece of paper.

"Thank you…"  Xin Ja bade his farewell.

As he walks out of the hospital, he noticed the sky is bright.

"I thought that I was unconscious for a while? Why is it still morning now?" he muttered.

As he looks at the buildings, Xin Ja was a bit astonished.

The buildings and the people around him truly did not look like in Myrth. Plus he also knew that the place did not look like the Earth that Shin Jiao is talking about because he already discovered that this place is still the planet Heavenly Samsara.

The building in his surroundings looks like between 1900 and 1950, the vehicle looks like those 1910 cars, but the fashion style of the people is like that in the 2000s of the earth.

The diverse environment made Xin Ja feel a slight headache. He just looks at the people and everything around him like a fool.

He felt a bit overwhelmed by what he is seeing as he slowly sits on the side of the wall.

"Calm down… I have to calm down…" he muttered.

While sitting on the side and calmly assessing his surroundings, he heard two people talking.

"Hey, I need to pawn my stuff… I need money to buy a weapon. Although I am already awakened, I will still die in the raids… So you have to wait for me by the station, okay?" a person said to his companion.

"Alright, don't worry… We will not enter that place unless you are prepared." His companions replied.

Upon hearing their conversation Xin Ja's eyes quickly gleamed.

In his ring, he has many things inside it that he could use, he should observe first then decide from there how he could get his hand on some cash in this place.
