The people in the meeting room listened to Li Yi’s explanation of cultivation and evolution knowledge. Although they understood it, they remained silent because they realized the true reason why Li Yi said they couldn’t cultivate. This world’s cosmic energy is thin, the environment is terrible, and the human body has degenerated, making cultivation impossible. This path that could change the future is something they can only watch, as there’s simply no way to traverse it. Zhao Hongjie took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and then composed himself again. Although his initial idea wasn’t accomplished, as a leader, a small setback was nothing. "Taiyi, since the path of cultivation doesn’t work, is it possible to use the power of technology to deal with the undead?" Li Yi said: "I’m not sure. When great power belongs to oneself, technology becomes an embellishment. However, the technological level in your world is very low. While raising your technological level may not necessarily help you deal with the undead, it can at least improve living conditions and increase productivity." Thinking of this, he took out several smartphones from the storage ring. "These are phones from our world, but they have no power now. Once you recharge them and restart, these phones are enough to significantly raise your technological level." You must know that these are phones used by evolvers, equipped with intelligent brain systems. Although it’s unclear which generation of AI they are, in this world they represent a dimensional strike. "Thank you for your help." Zhao Hongjie took these phones and looked at them. The technology level was indeed high, with the entire phone having no buttons. Someone ignorant might think it’s just a piece of transparent glass. However, he didn’t study it much and casually handed it to the secretary beside him. Such things naturally need to be handed over to professionals. Keeping them here would only be a waste. Although this exchange didn’t meet expectations, helping the country’s technology advance is also worthwhile. "But I’m somewhat interested in how your world deals with the undead. When will you take action there? I’d like to watch." Li Yi said at this moment. Zhao Hongjie glanced at the secretary beside him. The secretary immediately said: "We plan to act tomorrow night at ten because the undead only appear at night." Li Yi nodded and said, "I will appear on time." He wouldn’t feel at ease without seeing the building destroyed, after all, if the undead from this world went to Tianchang City, it would still cause some trouble. Now that Tianchang City is being rebuilt, order needs to be restored, and any hidden dangers should be eliminated. "Besides destroying that building, do you have any other requests?" Zhao Hongjie asked again. Li Yi waved his hand and said: "I am different from you; the needs of cultivators are very low. I came here just to resolve this issue, nothing more. After completing this task, I will leave and will not interfere with your lives." Hearing this, Zhao Hongjie smiled: "Indeed, cultivators are different from ordinary people. Honestly, I’m fortunate to meet someone as noble as you today." "You’re welcome, you are also a straightforward leader." Li Yi said. At this moment, a middle-aged man with half of his face burned walked over and whispered a few words to Zhao Hongjie. After hearing it, Zhao Hongjie surprisingly said: "Taiyi, have you also been entangled by the undead? I can help you solve it immediately. We have some experience in getting rid of the undead’s entanglement." "No need." Li Yi shook his head: "I want to see how this undead kills people." "This is a very dangerous thing." Zhao Hongjie said. Li Yi laughed and said: "It doesn’t matter; if I die, you don’t need to collect my body. I won’t leave a corpse, just disperse as energy in this world." Not even fearing death? Are cultivators all so carefree? The people present couldn’t help but think this. They could clearly feel that the person named Taiyi in front of them thought very differently from them. As the conversation continued. Li Yi could clearly feel that Zhao Hongjie wanted to gain more benefits from him, whether it was cultivation, technology, or knowledge about other worlds. But he also understood because even the slightest thing they could get from him could change a country or even a world. Li Yi was not a stingy person. Since his avatar could not return, he was willing to provide them with some help. But whether it was an illusion or not. As time passed, the invisible undead lying on his back seemed to get heavier. Of course, this weight was only relevant for ordinary people; for his avatar, it was negligible. "Are you planning to crush me to death?" Such thoughts appeared in Li Yi’s mind. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥 Meanwhile, Zhang Yan was also observing Li Yi’s situation while checking the time. Under normal circumstances. People entangled by the undead wouldn’t survive long. In most cases, Li Yi would die before the sun rises. But now... the sun had already risen. And Li Yi was still alive, not having died because of this. "Cultivators are indeed different. He easily survived the first night." Zhang Yan thought to himself. It wasn’t just him who thought so; even the undead outside the meeting room observing the situation were a bit surprised. However, considering the great power to split the earth, akin to a Divine presence, they felt perhaps the undead couldn’t harm him at all. Zhao Hongjie sincerely wanted to help Li Yi, as building a good relationship through this method would be beneficial in the future. Unfortunately, Li Yi had no needs, which left Zhao Hongjie both troubled and awed. Perhaps it was precisely this mindset that defined a true cultivator. Wealth, power, and status are just constructs created by ordinary people and have no effect on someone like Taiyi. When the time reached eight in the morning. But Zhao Hongjie only went to rest and didn’t leave the building. He told Li Yi that he could contact him directly for anything. "I need to understand the undead." Li Yi also made a request. Zhao Hongjie immediately agreed. In the meeting room, ordinary people left, and those with undead identities entered, numbering more than a dozen, each with a unique aura. Clearly, they were experts. At least in this world’s terms. But to Li Yi, there was no difference between undead and ordinary people. A bolt of lightning could kill them. He just wanted more information about the undead. "Leveraging the power of the higher-ups really makes things easier. If I were to wander alone, it would be difficult to come into contact with the undead." At this moment, his gaze swept across and finally rested on a young woman in her early twenties. This woman had grayish-white eyes, like cataracts, but Li Yi could feel she could see something different. "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Han Chuan. I can see the undead lying behind you." The woman spoke proactively. "Seems like my intuition is right." Li Yi nodded slightly: "Then tell me, what does the undead lying behind me look like?" Han Chuan replied: "I can’t say because once I see it, it sees me too. If I describe it, it will start entangling me. This is a boundary between the living and the undead that cannot be easily broken." "Can I understand that the reason I’m entangled by the undead is because, as a living person, I’ve broken this boundary?" Li Yi said with interest. A man with half of his face burned remarked seriously: "Yes, your wisdom is high, grasping the reason quickly, but the boundary between the living and the undead is very vague. No one knows what actions constitute a breach." "But we have summarized some transgressive behaviors and compiled them into a book. You can take a look." He then handed out a booklet. Li Yi grabbed it from a distance and looked through it with a smile: "It’s quite interesting. Living in your world seems tough, having to follow all sorts of rules, and not being free at all." The booklet listed many things the living shouldn’t do, like not going out on a rainy day, not looking back when walking at night, not talking while eating alone... Many rules seemed childish. "For survival, there’s no choice," said the man with the charred face.
