Cultivator vs Modern Technology: Wu Bolinâs Fear
Wu Bolin ran away in panic.
He never imagined his plans would be completely ruined. His initial intention in coming to the American research station was to recruit followers and expand his power.
But in reality, he was now running around like a dog that had been beaten back.
All the way home through the snowstorm, he kept cursing under his breath.
âYou crazy Americans! Whatâs the big deal? Why are they making such a fuss over something so trivial?â he muttered in annoyance. âThey even leaked information to their own soldiers.â
A hundred years ago, Wu Bolin would not have been afraid of the army.
To him, firearms and cannons were nothing more than metal toys. They posed no threat to someone with such a high cultivation level.
However, times have changed.
After a century of seclusion and meditation, he realized a harsh reality: the speed of ordinary human technological development far exceeded the speed of his cultivation.

The Horror of Modern Weapons
The firepower of modern armies is now so devastating that a single button can level entire cities to the ground. This destructive power is difficult for even the most skilled cultivators to match.
Wu Bolin remembered the story of a powerful noble who died tragically.
Even though the nobleman had an invulnerable body that could withstand several shots, he was blown to pieces when faced with a machine gun that spewed thousands of bullets per minute.
Thatâs why, when he learned he was facing the American military, Wu Bolin didnât hesitate for a moment. He chose to run.
Beside him, Kohei Kikuchi was driving with a confused expression. His mind, completely controlled by Wu Bolin, was unable to process the situation.
âSir, something seems wrong!â Kikuchi reported.
âWhatâs wrong?â Wu Bolin asked roughly.
âAlmost every country in the world has signed the Antarctic Treaty. They have promised not to send troops or weapons here,â Kikuchi explained.
He continued in a puzzled tone, âBut just now, America sent paratroopers and armored vehicles. Thatâs a crazy violation of international law! We only asked for logistical support, why are they sending combat troops?â
âYes, why?â Wu Bolin was also at a loss.
Itâs like borrowing flour from a neighbor, only to have the neighbor retaliate by sending a company of heavily armed bandits to kill you. Itâs a complete overreaction.
Unless⌠the neighbor knows that you donât actually want to borrow flour, but rather want to slaughter his family.
âBut I didnât reveal my true intentions,â Wu Bolin thought. âHow could they sense danger?â
Allegations of Treason
Suddenly, a terrible possibility crossed his mind.
âUnless someone in my family leaks this news!â Wu Bolin muttered.
Kikuchi turned his head, âMasato, what did you just say about information leaking?â
Wu Bolin stared sharply ahead, his eyes cold.
âI suspect it was the people in Wu Hangong who leaked this news. Could it be that Japan already knows that you are all loyal to me now?â
Kikuchi was shocked. âImpossible, Masato! Every member of the Wu Han Palace is loyal to you to the death. Even if you told us to commit suicide right now, we would. How could we possibly reveal a secret?â
Wu Bolin nodded slightly. Logically, his hypnosis was perfect.
âYouâre right. Youâre my loyal puppets. ButâŚâ Wu Bolin thought hard.
âItâs impossible to prevent Japan from learning about this situation through other channels. Weâve been conducting extensive exploration here for too long. Thereâs bound to be traces left behind.â
Kikuchi agreed with a worried expression. âOur technology is limited. Perhaps our method of fooling the command center in Japan isnât 100% effective.â

Cold sweat began to drip down Wu Bolinâs forehead.
âIf my suspicions are correct⌠since America knows, then Japan knows too. They must be working together.â
The final conclusion sent shivers down Wu Bolinâs spine: âThat means these American troops arenât just guarding their station. Theyâre going to chase us all the way to Wu Han Palace!â

Cruel Strategy: Sacrificing Pawns for the King
Kikuchi was growing increasingly panicked. âMasato, if the Japanese government finds out, this will be an international scandal. Theyâll investigate to the bottom of it.â
Wu Bolin asked in a voice trembling with frustration.
âThen what should I do? If their troops are moving towards our base, where should I go?â
He looked out at the endless expanse of white ice.
âIf I stay, there will be a fierce battle, and I will be outnumbered. If I leave, where can I hide on this dead continent?â
Wu Bolinâs Dao Heart (inner balance) was shaken greatly. He cursed harshly.
âDamn it! If Iâd known this, I wouldnât have bothered with America! I wanted to conquer territory, but instead my own house caught fire!â
Kikuchi looked at him with adoring eyes, an effect of powerful mind control.
âRest assured, Master! We are willing to serve you wholeheartedly. Wherever you run, we will follow!â
Hearing that, Wu Bolin felt even more frustrated.
These Japanese researchers are certainly useful for exploration . But for escape ? Theyâre a burden.
First, they are physically weak. They wouldnât survive long outside of shelter without advanced technology.
Second, a large group would be too conspicuous. Bringing them would be like carrying a neon sign that read âSHOOT HEREâ to the US military.
Disposal Plan
Wu Bolinâs cunning brain worked quickly.
âIf Japan and America cooperate, the best solution is to withdraw temporarily,â he thought.
âAs for the fate of these Japanese researchers⌠let them be arrested.â
Wu Bolin wasnât afraid of his secret being revealed. He had already planted a powerful mental suggestion.
They will be loyal to the death. If questioned, they will remain silent or speak nonsense.
This will leave a lasting mystery for Japan and America. They will never understand why these brilliant scientists betrayed their countries, and what they were truly seeking in Antarctica.
To be sure, Wu Bolin tested Kikuchi again.
âKikuchi, if one day you were arrested and brought back to Japan⌠if they put a gun to your head and asked about me, what would you say?â
Without a second of hesitation, Kikuchi answered firmly.
âDonât worry, Master! I will never mention your name. Even if I die, my mouth is sealed.â

Wu Bolin tersenyum tipis. Ia puas.
Persiapan Terakhir
Meskipun sudah siap membuang anak buahnya, Wu Bolin tidak ingin menyerah begitu saja.
Rencananya sekarang: Mundur ke Istana Wu Han secepat mungkin.
Jika militer AS datang menyerbu, ia tidak perlu bertarung frontal. Dengan tingkat kultivasinya, ia memiliki kelebihan dalam hal persepsi dan kecepatan reaksi.
âAku bisa mendeteksi mereka lebih dulu sebelum mereka melihatku,â batinnya.
Dan jika situasi memungkinkan, Wu Bolin memiliki satu rencana cadangan yang lebih gila.
Ia akan mencoba menyergap satu tentara Amerika yang terpisah dari rombongan. Terutama yang bisa berbahasa Mandarin.
âAku akan mengendalikan pikirannya, menyusup ke dalam barisan mereka, dan mencari tahu apa yang sebenarnya direncanakan Amerika!â
