e radiance, there lies power capable of easily slaying even cultivators from the Heavenly Cave realm.While Jiang Yun and the other two, although all prodigies of their respective sects, were ultimatel...Ginger Cloud, who had always stood outside the city gate, although he had been patiently waiting, gradually felt a trace of doubt rising in his heart.
When I first arrived at the first four towns, although the cultivators there were cold and distant, they at least didn't turn me away.
But now, in this Fifth Town Realm, even though I've tried to reason with them, they haven't responded at all. And after so much time has passed, not a single person has even shown up.
Could something have happened in this city
Just as Jiang Yun was about to have this thought, a voice finally sounded in his ear.
“Fellow Daoist, if you wish to enter the city, you must first slay the demon beast Taiyang to prove your origins and identity.”
Upon hearing this, Ginger Cloud's brows furrowed immediately as she said, "Prove my origin and identity"
"I am a cultivator from the Dao domain. I came to this outer battlefield to find someone, and that's all."
This extraterrestrial battlefield is inhabited by both demonic beasts and cultivators. Demonic beasts are unique to this domain, while cultivators can only come from the Dao Domain or the Annihilation Domain.
As a cultivator, and this being the Dao domain's territory, my appearance here naturally indicates that I am from the Dao domain. Jiang Yun really couldn't understand what this proved.
Could it be that cultivators from the realm of annihilation would also come to this fifth town boundary
That voice sounded again, "Fellow cultivator, you must not be familiar with this extraterrestrial battlefield!"
Ginger Cloud remained silent, standing there waiting for the other party's explanation.
"Comrade, you must have traveled from the first-level region, crossing through each level to get here. Along the way, you should have encountered quite a few monsters."
However, those monsters you saw in the front area were only strong in their physical bodies.
And starting from the fifth-grade region, some of the monsters here could perform a soul-stealing technique.
Hearing this, Jiang Yun instantly understood!
As for the demon beasts stealing souls, Jiang Yun was naturally all too familiar with it.
Once a demonic beast successfully seizes a cultivator's soul, it can not only transform into the other's appearance but also possess their memories and even wield their magical powers.
The cultivators in the city clearly suspected that they had been possessed by a demonic beast.
As expected, the voice continued, "Demons that have devoured cultivators' souls can transform into human form and possess intelligence, impersonating our human cultivators!"
Back then, a demonic beast infiltrated the city using this very method. So from that point onwards, for safety's sake, all cultivators who wanted to enter the city had to be tested by having them kill some demonic beasts. This served as proof that they hadn't been possessed by a demonic beast.
The explanation given by the other party gradually relaxed the frown on Jiang Yun's forehead.
If truly allowed, for demonic beasts that have devoured human cultivators to enter the city, the consequences would indeed be unimaginable!
Thinking of this, the discontent that had arisen in Jiang Yun's heart also dissipated. He nodded and said, "I understand. What you mean is that as long as I follow your requirements and kill the so-called Taigang demon beast, I can obtain the qualification to enter the city"
"Not bad!" The voice sounded with a hint of apology. "This is not intentional difficulty for you by us, but it is helpless. I hope you can understand."
"As long as fellow daoist can kill the designated demon beast and prove his identity, then we will naturally apologize to fellow daoist!"
Jiang Yun straightforwardly asked, "Where is that monster Taiyang"
"Whoosh!"
Above the city wall, a beam of light as fast as lightning shot straight towards Jiang Yun. When it reached Jiang Yun's face, it suddenly stopped.
This was a jade slip, and Jiang Yun didn't even reach out to take it. He only used his divine sense to probe into it, discovering that it was a map.
Inside, there was a flickering red dot, naturally indicating the location of that monster Taicang.
After marking the map, Ginger Cloud turned and left.
And behind him, that voice sounded again: "Friend, please be careful. Although that Taicang is only a fifth-level monster beast, it's a little strange, and its strength far surpasses that of ordinary monsters of the same level."
"If you fellow cultivators feel that your strength is insufficient, please do not take risks!"
Gingercloud did not answer, just nodded and stepped out of the Fifth Town Realm.
With Gingercloud's departure, the figures of the old man and the scholar appeared on top of the city walls of Jucity.
The scholar's face wore a helpless expression as he said, "In the future, please don't let me deal with such bad people!"
"Haha!" the elder laughed heartily. "We'll talk about it later!"
"After this kid walks farther away, we'll follow him quickly. I feel like he's a little clueless, don't let him get into any trouble!"
The scholar shook his head and said, “Didn’t you say he wasn’t very skilled Even if he wanted to cause trouble in this outer domain battlefield, what kind of trouble could he possibly make”
"Alright, let's catch up!"
The elder burst into laughter once more, his figure suddenly rising into the air. The scholar shook his head and followed suit.
At this moment, Jiang Yun has already left the Fifth Town Realm and, according to the marked location on the map, is flying towards where the demon beast Taiyang resides.
Although Ginger Cloud understood the cultivators' actions within the Fifth Town Realm, if he didn't want the map and information about Lu Xiaoyu's ancestors, he wouldn't even enter the city, let alone kill a monster to prove his identity as they demanded.
However, now that he wants to enter the city, he can only follow their lead.
After all, for him, killing a demon beast was nothing difficult.
"Taiyang!" Jiang Yun murmured the name, "This demonic beast actually has a name. I wonder if it chose it itself, or if cultivators gave it to it!"
As Jian Yun dashed through the darkness, he realized that within this fifth-level region, there was a miniature world at regular intervals.
These microscopic worlds are invisible to the naked eye and even to weak divine senses.
Because they are hidden in the depths of space.
Let me know if you have anything else you'd like translated!
Every world has two cultivators in total, one staying in the rift between worlds and the other residing within the world itself.
The two monks' strongest cultivation base was the Daotai realm, and the weakest was the Daoxing realm.
As for Jiang Yun's whereabouts, some would glance at him coldly, while others simply ignored him altogether, only watching their surroundings with wary eyes.
Ginger also gradually began to understand that these miniature worlds were like watchtowers, hidden here, monitoring the movements within the entire fifth-level area.
After all, the monsters in the fifth-level area are too powerful.
If we continue to only station people around the town's borders like in the previous areas, then when hundreds of level 5-6 demon beasts gather and arrive, even with a giant city as protection, the cultivators inside the town would definitely not be a match for them.
Therefore, once these cultivators discovered that demonic beasts were gathering or exhibiting any unusual behavior, they would either take action themselves to disrupt the situation or inform the powerful figures within the Fifth Town Realm to come and stop it promptly.
Ginger Cloud nodded repeatedly, having to say, for the sake of dealing with demonic beasts, the cultivators in the extraterritorial battlefield were truly doing their best, coming up with all sorts of methods.
Killing a demon beast myself, although it wouldn't do much to help their situation, would at least be doing my part.
Jiang Yun no longer looked at these cultivators, but instead quickened his pace, heading towards the location of the demonic beast Taiyang.
Behind him, perhaps tens of thousands of miles away, the old man and the scholar followed closely.
In their estimation, the two of them were definitely not discovered by Ginger Cloud while tracking him.
But they didn't know at all, in fact, Ginger Cloud had already discovered it!
However, because of the existence of those miniature worlds like watchtowers, even though Jiang Yun discovered them, he didn't pay attention, thinking they were just ordinary cultivators responsible for patrolling.
That's it, after three days of time passed, Jiang Yun's figure stopped, looking at the darkness ahead.
There, that's where the monster Taiyang is marked on the map!
