CHAPTER 47: CHAPTER 47: THE GRACE OF IMMORTAL FATE IS LIKE BEING REBORN

New allies, and they’re new allies with Supernatural Power!

When the spokesperson announced this, the whole place instantly exploded.

Viewers from all over the world, plenty of them couldn’t help but shout out excitedly.

"Holy shit! Holy shit!"

"They’re bringing out Supernatural Power!"

"Superpowers?!"

"Don’t tell me it’s something like Magic!"

"I thought those monsters were fantastical enough, but damn, this is on another level!"

"Fuck!"

"Is Jerald City saved?"

"..."

No wonder people were freaking out.

Just like aliens, Supernatural Power has always been one of the big fantasies well known everywhere in Human Civilization, maybe even older, going all the way back to ancient myths—Human Civilization’s imagination and longing for Supernatural Power have an incredibly long history!

Even though those monsters are crazy fantastical, until now, plenty of folks still believed it was just unknown tech at work.

The "alien biological weapons" explanation was the mainstream view.

Even when the Multi-Dimensional Apocalypse Civilization Mutual Aid Association appeared, people still labeled it as the "Parallel World theory."

The new allies that showed up appeared in human form, which said it all.

But now, the spokesperson actually confirmed Supernatural Power?

All the wild ideas and hopes just blew up!

This means even more potential, even more mind-blowing possibilities!

Maybe with just one spell, the giant destructive monsters could be turned into caterpillars?

Right now, around the world—especially inside Jerald City—people’s hearts were filled with endless hope.

Maybe, they really could be saved? Maybe a miracle could happen?

You could see it with your own eyes—the chaos in the city was calming down bit by bit.

As long as there’s a shred of hope, people won’t go full hysterical.

And at this moment, Shen Yu, who knew exactly what kind of hope he’d handed out, arrived in the Martial Arts World together with Martial Artist Shen Yu.

The spatial rift was located in a room, with quite a few people already sitting there.

The two who appeared immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

At the instant they saw Shen Yu, they all instinctively stood up.

This man they’d never met before, who, like Immortal Yu, materialized in the Gray Mist—no need for further explanation: Tribulation Immortal!

"Greetings, Immortal." Everyone saluted together, looking very respectful.

When facing Martial Artist Shen Yu, the Immortal reincarnated into their world, they could still be a bit casual.

Especially Martial Artist Shen Yu’s father-in-law.

But when facing an unknown Immortal from another world, you just have to play it safe.

Unknown, no karma or ties, and yet still an Immortal, holding extraordinary power.

When dealing with this kind of being, caution and awe are almost instinct.

That’s also why, in his own world, Shen Yu always had to rely on interstellar world Shen Yu and Martial Artist Shen Yu to express his stance and hold the line.

It’s the same now.

"No need to be so formal." Shen Yu spoke in the local language. He sounded easygoing, but his face wasn’t all that friendly; after a quick look around, he asked, "So, which of you is ready to take the job and come to my world?"

An elderly man with snowy white hair and beard stepped forward.

"Reporting to Immortal, it’s me."

This guy, though already old with a forehead full of wrinkles, was seriously built.

Had to be at least two meters tall, dressed in loose clothing, but even so you could see the steel-hard, solid muscles across his chest; his whole body radiated a heavy yet sharp aura, just looking at him gave you a sense of raw, overflowing vitality.

"This is Sword God Peak’s second Supreme Elder, Sword Return Two," Martial Artist Shen Yu introduced beside him. "Assisting an Immortal in the Otherworld during tribulation isn’t a trivial matter. Elder Sword Return Two is strict, disciplined, and steady-minded—definitely the best choice."

As soon as he said this, two other elders with equally outstanding auras looked a tad awkward.

They were the other two Supreme Elders of Sword God Peak.

When the news came out that an Otherworld Tribulation Immortal needed a Martial Arts powerhouse for backup, those three went at it hard for this shot.

In the end, Sword Return Two came out on top.

Steady-minded, yeah sure, but at their age, who isn’t steady?

Fact is, he was better in battle! Missing out on this chance hurts!

Now, watching Shen Yu, their gazes were burning, hoping this Immortal would pick two more.

Shen Yu easily caught their barely hidden stares. He could get why—they were mighty, but age was catching up with them.

White hair, wrinkles, all sorts of old-age marks.

Just food wouldn’t mean much for them, great cultivators never starve easily, but Immortal Fate is a whole different story—and that’s what really gets them pumped.

So after mulling it over for a moment, Shen Yu quietly used the Gray Mist to ask some questions, then suddenly said, "Alright, besides food, I’ll also use some leftover Mana to extend your lifespan by ten years. If you contribute greatly, there’ll be extra rewards."

"——!"

At that, all three Supreme Elders’ eyes shrank in shock!

Sword Return Two in particular couldn’t even contain his ecstasy.

He was grinning so wide his mouth nearly reached his ears—no elite master vibes left now!

The other two shot him such an envious look they were about to burst into flames.

More years to live!

All three were close in age. Sword Return Two was actually the oldest, already 173. That’s after training in all sorts of lifespan extension techniques, using every imaginable Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Even so, he only had not quite ten years left, with the final years barely able to fight at all.

Even with the Withered Wood Nirvana Scripture to practice now, a high-level Cultivation Technique like that doesn’t bring results fast—in their lifetime, maybe a few more years at best.

This kind of pain, knowing the end is near, tortures every Martial Arts powerhouse running out of time!

No matter if they could break mountains and rivers, bursting with power, they couldn’t stop aging and death.

But now, this Immortal from the Otherworld just offered ten more years with a single word?

Who could resist that kind of temptation!

Even Martial Artist Shen Yu was kinda stunned.

He thought he’d just dangle some "Immortal Fate," a nice carrot.

But Shen Yu wasn’t stingy at all—he already checked, and adding ten years to Sword Return Two would only cost 360,000 units of Gray Mist, far less than how much it would cost to bring him across worlds.

Of course, each time you extend lifespan it’s easier at first, but the cost goes up and up later.

Still, the motivation is massive.

Not just for this one, but for all the other Martial Arts World powerhouses too.

Once their lifespan’s running out, they’re almost guaranteed to take the deal. Use it right, and you’ll earn that Gray Mist back in no time.

It’s not like there’s only one of those gray-white worms left!

"Aren’t you going to thank Immortal Shen Yu?" Martial Artist Shen Yu reminded him.

"Thank you, Immortal Shen Yu!" snapped back to reality, Sword Return Two bowed to the floor, voice trembling with excitement. "Such kindness with Immortal Fate is as good as rebirth!"

"This isn’t true Immortal Fate yet, but as long as you help me through the tribulation, I won’t hold back," Shen Yu didn’t mind tossing out more carrots.

But as long as the world can be saved, these carrots might just become reality someday.
