Chapter 8, Zhelong City

As for the Divine Concealment Realm

Jun Tian murmured to himself, enjoying the meat. It had once been a childhood wish of the siblings, but now it seemed quite simple.

A grave

The heavens of Jun possess a unique emotion, as if the 'snake' that has endured the winter is undergoing a revival of life, its skin becoming somewhat tougher and more resistant to the cold

The middle-aged woman shopkeeper approached with a disdainful gaze, surveying Jun Tian's shabby appearance, and said with great contempt: "You little pauper, how dare you dine and dash here? Why don't you go to Zhe Long City and inquire who would dare to cause trouble here"

The speed of the large Tibetan mastiffs is astonishing, akin to a group of black cheetahs charging forward, tearing the air into waves.

He also decisively retreated; killing Huang Anshan would effectively eliminate any loose ends. In the following days, as long as he seized the opportunity, he would be able to bring Yunxi out.

Jun Tian is completely baffled; shouldn't it be the Origin Platform instead

The vastness of wind and snow, the figure in the heavenly realm is small, lonely

Jun Tian is not unfamiliar with this area; he often accompanied his grandfather here to fell trees during his childhood. He is well aware that a massive glacier occupies the depths, stretching for over a thousand miles.

In the realm of Jun Tian, there is no time to waste. He plunged into the fish cave, coming into contact with the icy waters, his body nearly splitting apart. It was too cold

Walking alone in the bustling city, homeless

At this moment, the diners in the shop cast burning gazes at one another, whispering among themselves, unsure whether they are here to eat or to observe others

Did he discover a treasure trove in the treasure area? This boy was found by Huang Anshan after he crawled out? Yes, that's right, he is definitely not a member of the Kong family

Woof woof

Jun was in a state of panic; he had forgotten the tracking ability of the mastiff and slapped himself hard, exclaiming how could he make such a mistake at this critical moment

The yellow oriole has always valued face, and even if he is a member of the Kong family, he will certainly not show mercy

The bustling and lively district left Jun Tian in a daze as he gazed at the elegantly dressed pedestrians around him and the sight of his peers chatting and laughing.

Because the mastiff detected that the killer is very likely to have crawled out from the treasure area

Jun Tian gritted his teeth in frustration, on the verge of madness. Fortunately, the Life Spring Elixir sustained the warmth of his body. He then vigorously moved his arms, intending to cross the icy river.

The neighbors have watched Yunxi grow up since childhood, and those who can offer care, especially Uncle Blacksmith, will not neglect Yunxi. What I must do now is to remain hidden in the shadows, and I must not allow anyone who knows me to see me

The food is fragrant and sweet, but it feels like chewing wax, failing to stimulate any appetite; ultimately, the mood is too oppressive.

The precious liquid from the Fountain of Destiny was extracted from the heavenly realm to begin restoration, after all, dawn was approaching, making it unsuitable to travel at this time

The shell gives rise to divine power, making this stage exceptionally significant, with a lifespan reaching up to 300 years

"I will definitely come tomorrow," Jun Tian said solemnly, then turned and left

A City

Upon considering this, Huang Ying decided to personally embark on an exploration as the ice river drew near in a short time

Woof woof woof

Since we are already here, we should make ourselves comfortable and find a way to contact my younger sister

The Jun Tian has been continuously changing its course across the river, moving away from the search and capture team

The mayor who came along was quite alarmed, as it is said that each mastiff costs ten thousand taels of gold to raise annually. Moreover, the yellow oriole often organizes battles between war pets and mastiffs, with the aim of training the mastiffs to be fierce and brutal

Bang

The heavens quietly departed without a sound, leaving a heavy heart

As Jun Tian ascended to the mountain peak, guided by the tiles, he discovered a misty villa, which also bore a sign indicating an inn

In the icy river, Jun Tian honed his physique with the cold water, while the spring's precious liquid aided in recovery. In a short period, he made astonishing progress. As for the hidden physical life wheel within him, it was blazing and robust, yet the process was exceedingly slow.

The oriole was greatly astonished, for the survivor had captured a great fortune

As the search circle expanded, Huang Ying discovered an outrageous reality

... ... ... ...

The heavens remain silent, solitary and out of place in this world

At this moment, Jun Tian is traversing through the mountains and forests, simultaneously tearing apart the fox fur coat and throwing it in various directions to disrupt the scent of the mastiffs

He is very clear-headed; as long as he does not expose himself, the younger sister can remain safe

Jun Tian touched his belly and discovered a baozi shop at the bridgehead. He walked over, drawn by the aroma of the food, sat in a corner, and ordered a steaming bowl of meat soup and donkey meat baozi

In fact, he was restless and had been missing for three days, classified as deceased. It is unknown how Yunxi is doing now, but fortunately, there is still a stockpile of food at home, sufficient for her to live for a year

He traveled on foot up the mountain and learned from passersby that there were inns and restaurants above, so he decided to go and take a look

The toad aspires to eat swan meat; it would be surprising if he could bring the money.

The only survivor of the treasure zone

The shopkeeper's wife looked unwell, and there were many wealthy young men in the city who wished to marry her daughter, especially the Jiang family, which was the second most prominent noble family after the city lord's residence.

The yellow oriole stood up and ordered the blockade of the treasure area, simultaneously sending a message to the family to dispatch strong individuals to delve deeply into the treasure area, willing to pay any price to break through

Far in the mountainous region, Huang Ying nearly lost her composure after listening to her subordinate's report

It is already late at night, and Jun Tian has run very far away.

On the icy plains where blood flows, the body is enveloped in golden radiance, concealing the face and figure

Even if it is not a relic of the ancient Dao lineage, it is undoubtedly a secret abode of powerful beings from ancient times. How wonderful, hahaha, truly wonderful

When one is down on their luck, even drinking cold water can get stuck in their teeth. However, having overcome so many difficulties, how could one possibly falter in the depths of a yellow oriole's ditch! Jun Tianma gallops tirelessly into the depths of the mountains and forests; just a moment ago, the distance was so great that they surely could not see him.

Is it possible to temper the body and bones through the harsh conditions of nature

Upon reflecting on this, the town mayor could not help but marvel at the terrifying ambition for power exhibited by Huang Ying. Who could possibly conquer such a woman

A woman in a blue dress approached with a smile, her jade-like figure tall and graceful, her beautiful cheeks adorned with a gentle smile, and her eyes resembling autumn waters

A large number of soldiers are patrolling the city walls, making passage exceptionally difficult

The figure of Jun Tian vanished into the darkness, while the mayor pretended to pursue with soldiers, simultaneously dispatching personnel to swiftly inform Huang Ying

It is so cold

Knights are patrolling everywhere, and they are also questioning passing strangers

The three major realms of early cultivation

The spring's precious liquid has been exhausted, and the cultivation in the realm of Jun Tian has reached the sixth level.

After finishing the meal, Jun Tian felt all his fatigue dissipate. However, he awkwardly realized that he had no food coupons on him, and to this day, he dared not use gold.

It is not good; they have expanded the encirclement. The yellow oriole has indeed ruled over a radius of ten thousand miles. Once the order is given, it will be executed with resolute and swift action

However, what shook Jun Tian's heart was that the tiles were glowing, stirring restlessly

"Miss, I truly forgot to bring money. I will definitely come back to settle it tomorrow." Jun Tian walked over to thank the woman

As Jun Tian stepped inside, the villa was surrounded by ancient trees in clusters, lush and verdant, with a warm climate. However, in a remote corner, a broken stele stood before a solitary grave, drawing attention to the fragments of tiles.

The shopkeeper's wife scolded Mo Han in annoyance, stating that the Jiang family had already promised a substantial betrothal gift, enough to last for ten lifetimes, yet Mo Han was deliberately ignoring the young master of the Jiang family

He has endured hardships, facing avalanches, experiencing cold waves and storms, encountering bandits on the snowfields, and battling fierce beasts, living through immense difficulties while trekking over ten thousand miles.

At this moment in the glacier, Jun Tian's body was completely numb, and his movements became increasingly sluggish. This feeling was truly worse than death

Before long, Jun Tian heard the sound of barking dogs and inwardly cursed the speed of these beasts. However, these mastiffs had lost his scent and were unable to pinpoint his trajectory.

... ...

The Life Wheel Realm is nourished by the essence of heaven and earth for the growth of the Life Wheel, while the Misty Realm absorbs the essence of the sun, transforming the energy within the body into mist-like substances

"You little brat, I didn't ask you to go out and have fun with the young master of the Jiang family. Why didn't you go today?"

I have left; this place no longer belongs to me

Jun Tian was astonished, having never seen such a beautiful woman in his sixteen years of life. He had not yet married, falling far behind his peers.

This city is magnificent and grand, resembling a colossal steel beast perched upon the snowy plains. The city walls can reach a height of one hundred zhang, and according to the map's markings, it is named Zhelong City

This is ... ...

This is the ancient city, a place I have longed to visit since childhood, yet why can I not feel joy?

That is not correct; since he was able to crawl out of the treasure area alive, it is very likely that he possesses a treasure that can isolate the cold. Perhaps he has hidden it in the glacier

The yellow oriole is deep in thought; the originator of the treasure exploration area, whose cultivation level was merely at the fourth stage of the Fate Wheel realm, has grown to the level capable of slaying Huang An Mountain in just a few short days

Beneath her feet, a dozen or so massive black mastiffs, fierce and brutal, had followed the scent of Jun Tian all the way to this location

Jun Tian is aware of his own shortcomings; in Zhe Long City, he is alone and vulnerable, unable to provoke trouble, and can only spend money to avert disaster

Wheel of Fate, Swallowing the Twilight, Divine Abode

The scent disappears right here. We can divide into a group of people to head across the ice to hunt on the other side of the river, while the others will turn back to continue searching here. I refuse to believe he can grow wings and fly away!" The guards from the Huang family reached a decision.

He cannot run into the glacier

Damn it

He faintly sensed that within his body lay countless "life wheels," resembling a dormant treasure of flesh, waiting for him to excavate

Who does not know that among the three great beauties of Zhelong City, the Tofu Xi Shi is one of them? Although she sells buns, the magnificent waves that occasionally rise before her chest reveal her domineering nature

I must leave this area before nightfall; otherwise, once dawn breaks, there will be no way to escape, and the mortality rate will be even higher

The vast expanse of the snowy world quickly receded, plunging into the depths of the landscape.

The guards beside Huang Ying did not dare to breathe, for her gaze was too terrifying, a mix of coldness and madness, but more so an excitement at discovering her prey, her jade-like body trembling slightly

He originally thought this place was very safe, however, while waiting to approach a town to replenish supplies, his cautious nature led him to observe secretly, and he discovered something was amiss

The heavens were taken aback, and as they stood up to gaze into the distance, they discovered a group of formidable knights charging towards them, with the leader unmistakably being Huang Ying

Hmm?

When he realized that there were no pursuers following him, Jun Tian, like a cheetah, charged into the primeval forest, preparing to recuperate here and observe the unfolding situation

Still? What do you intend to repay with? I see this snow wolf looks quite good, consider it as payment in kind

About an hour had passed when the silence of the primordial forest was suddenly pierced by the howling of a dog

Zhelong City must be powerful, as it is the strongest ancient city within a radius of 100,000 miles, and the influence of the Yellow Oriole cannot extend to this place

Mo Han's bright eyes resembled autumn waters, always adorned with a gentle smile. However, Jun Tian keenly discerned that there was a profound sorrow reflected in the depths of her eyes, suggesting that she was likely a pitiable person

Fortunately, Jun Tian observed for a while and discovered that as long as one pays the required fees, entry into the city is permitted without the need to worry about being questioned during the process

Dragon Head Peak

Stepping into the city feels like entering a new world

"I forgot to bring it; I will definitely return it tomorrow." Jun Tian stood up with a smile, uncertain whether Zhe Long City allowed them to use gold

It seems that opening the 'Flesh Life Wheel' is not something that can be achieved overnight. Unfortunately, the life essence I possess is limited, making it impossible for me to endure prolonged苦修 in the ice river

The mayor of Xueyuan Town was completely panicked, as Huang Anshan was killed right before his eyes, his head severed!

Juntian calmed his mind to reflect; although the experiences of this period have been thrilling, he has somewhat adapted to unexpected events. One must not panic in any situation, as this can easily lead to problems

Fortunately, during the process of eliminating the bandits, Jun Tian obtained a map and learned the location of Snowfield Town

Juntian swallowed the precious liquid held in his mouth, and his body quickly became warm. However, he was astonished to find that during the slow recovery of his stiff body, a brand new energy was generated.

The hunger gnawed at Jun Tian's insides, and he recalled the words of the city guard: one must leave before nightfall, otherwise, they would be treated as refugees and thrown into prison

Along the way, far from various fortresses, I walk in the rarely trodden deep forests of the world of literature and maps

Eating meat every day does not necessarily mean that life is satisfactory

He has distanced himself far from the dominion of the Huang family, thus achieving complete safety

Next, he also did not know where to go, having never left Snowfield Town from childhood to adulthood

In the quiet of the universe, one engages in self-reflection, believing this to be the path of cultivation, and gradually comprehends certain principles

Mother, he doesn't seem like someone who takes advantage of others. In my opinion, let's just forget about it.

Huang Anshan has served Huang Ying for over ten years with unwavering loyalty. She never expected to have her head publicly severed, which is nothing short of a slap in the face, a demonstration of power against her

The world is quickly devouring him, yet there is no absolute despair; he does not believe that he will always be this unfortunate. He considers himself to be lucky, with the only misfortune being that he cannot be with Yunxi.

Jun Tian searched for a nearby water pool to bathe, stole a piece of coarse linen clothing from a village, hunted a snow wolf, and successfully disguised himself as a hunter to enter the city

Jun Tian ran wildly, as if breaking into a new world, recklessly sprinting for three days and three nights

Indeed, the ancient city possesses a powerful Origin Platform, and it seems that there is also an Origin Platform atop Longshou Peak

Jun Tian's expression was exceptionally grim, the only consolation being that the Huang family was unaware that he had survived and left the treasure area

In the end, he ran wildly along the path, wearing only baggy shorts, his strong physique exposed, and carrying a cold sword sheath on his back

A month later, Jun Tian stood disheveled and in tattered clothes, gazing at the ancient city at the horizon's end

In the face of uncertainty, if a place to stay cannot be found, one must leave the ancient city

Mayor Wu Qingcheng stood by the riverbank, surveying the vast surroundings, and said: "Could it be that digging a pit would bury oneself?"

Miss, I saw the figure of the assailant; it dashed into the primeval forest! The leading knight noticed a fleeting shadow, his expression cold and stern

Take him out, alive.

The Jun Tian is rapidly approaching its destination, and this glacial river is covered year-round by a thick layer of ice, with only a few fishing holes at the edges, emitting a stream of cold substances.

However, what she was unaware of was that Jun Tian had reached the opposite bank of the river and was paying closer attention to the guards searching for him in the distance

In the city, Jun Tian turned through seven twists and eight turns, and to his astonishment, there was a towering peak shrouded in mist in the corner of the southern city.

It is evident that this is the unique physical cycle of life, exclusively belonging to the teachings recorded in the scriptures of origin

I do not want to go

"It's just a few buns, consider it my treat. It's getting dark, you should leave soon." Mo Han replied softly while kneading the dough at the counter, her delicate and slender hands at work.
