d with a look of bewilderment.None of them knew how the monk died.Latest Chapter @o節上kQX:0 ILet me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!And what was most eerie of all, the blood spilled by...From Su Yang's mouth, Ginger Cloud heard nothing but a heap of flattery that made her skin crawl, and no useful information.
Obviously, something must have happened during his coma, but Su Yang was unwilling to reveal it, deliberately concealing it.
Even with his current abilities, if Su Yang were inside the Flameless Puppet Lamp, he wouldn't be able to search his soul or force him to speak.
At least, from the current situation, Su Yang wouldn't pose any threat to his own life. Therefore, Jiang Yun could only give up on continuing to ask questions.
After flying for about a quarter of an hour, Jiang Yun's divine sense finally saw a mountain valley within it.
Inside, dimly visible, were small houses scattered about.
It is said to be vague because at the mouth of the valley, a force disrupted Jiang Yun's divine sense, allowing him to only see the general outline and unable to see more clearly.
And this power, Ginger Cloud was also no stranger to, it was the power of formations!
Since there is a formation, it proves that there are cultivators inside, after all, ordinary people would not set up formations.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Jiang Yun landed on the ground about a thousand meters away from the mouth of the valley. He deliberately released some fluctuations in his aura and then slowly walked towards the valley step by step.
Ginger Cloud had lived in the village since she was a child, so she knew very well that villages like this were extremely cautious and generally hostile towards strangers.
Especially someone like me, who isn't from this world at all. Appearing suddenly could cause unnecessary trouble.
Although I am not afraid, since I have come to them with a request, I still visit them respectfully.
Just as Jiang Yun had walked out a hundred zhang, he immediately sensed a ripple on the formation outside the valley. It was obvious that someone had already discovered his arrival.
The mouth of the valley was extremely narrow, only half a zhang wide, allowing at most three people to pass through. Above it, there lay ripples that undulated like water, clearly an array formation.
Jiang Yun stopped his steps and cupped his hands in a fist salute towards the entrance of the valley, "My name is Jiang Yun. I happened to pass by your esteemed land..."
"Damn it!"
However, before Jiang Yun could finish his words, a sharp shout suddenly echoed from within the valley.
Immediately following that, the ripples of the array violently surged and churned.
But amidst the turmoil, a gleam suddenly flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes.
He was startled to discover that above the transparent ripples, a word seemed to be forming!
The word "Dao," a longing in the hearts of all cultivators!
However, this "Dao" character is not a common one in the Shan Hai Realm. It was manifested by Jiang Yun when he obtained the Human Dao cultivation technique and when his black stone was branded with an item.
Later, whether in the Scripture Pavilion, in Nánxīng City, or even during his time with the Xue Clan, Jiāng Yún deliberately looked through many books, but he never came across a "Dao" character like that.
Therefore, in Jiang Yun's opinion, such words are extremely ancient and have long since disappeared. They should only exist in the distant past.
But unexpectedly, within the formations of a small village in this world, there appeared.
This also made Ginger Cloud develop some interest in the village and the world.
With the appearance of the character “Dao,” a powerful force suddenly erupted from above the formation. It transformed into an invisible pressure, bearing down on Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun, as if oblivious, continued politely, "I'd like to inquire about some things in your village!"
As his voice fell, the pressure arrived as well, like a mountain, bearing down heavily upon him.
Jiang Yun's body swayed slightly, as if nothing had happened, he stood there motionless.
Although he made it clear that he had no hostility, he also wanted to display his strength so as to gain the other party's sufficient attention.
As expected, a voice soon rang out from within the granary: "Outsider, our village is cut off from the outside world. There's no information you seek here, so leave!"
Hearing the other's words, Jiang Yun secretly let out a breath. He was still worried that in a different world, the language might also be different. Now it seems that he overthought it.
And the other party's attitude was also within Jiang Yun's expectations.
He certainly wouldn't just give up like that. He politely said again, "I have no ill intentions. I am new here and unfamiliar with the place, so I hope your village can be understanding."
"We're letting you leave peacefully, but if you don't listen, we'll have no choice but to take action!"
After the sound subsided, ripples once again appeared on top of the formation at the mouth of the valley. Over thirty figures surged forth from within.
Looking at these thirty or so figures, Jiang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly because these figures were not human, but a pack of black half-human tall wolves!
As Su Yang and Bai Ze said, there are no demons in this realm, so these black wolves do not emit any demonic energy. However, each wolf possesses the strength equivalent to that of a Pulse Connecting Realm cultivator, just like the various ferocious beasts of different ranks in the Shan Hai Realm.
Seeing these menacing black wolves baring their teeth at him, Jiang Yun didn't feel surprised.
In some villages deep within the mountains, ferocious beasts are specifically raised to protect their homes.
Even within the sect, there were specialized methods for taming beasts.
But as a spirit cultivator, Jiang Yun, even those demon clans with slightly lower cultivation would not dare to be presumptuous in front of him, let alone these black wolves who weren't even considered demons.
"Outsider, leave now or face the consequences!"
Jiang Yun smiled slightly, without speaking. With a wave of his sleeve, a red blood wolf, as tall as a man, appeared before him.
When he was at the Luo family, Jiang Yun had subdued a total of four monster beasts from the blessed land realm. However, because their strength was too low, Jiang Yun hadn't let them appear for a long time.
But now, letting the blood wolves deal with these black wolves is just right.
The blood wolf had just appeared, and the ferocious aura emanating from its body, coupled with its blood-red eyes, instantly frightened the thirty or so black wolves into cowering on the ground, their bodies trembling slightly.
But the next moment, these black wolves actually trembled and stood up, walking towards Jiang Yun, and they surrounded Jiang Yun one after another.
It looks like they were definitely raised by ginger clouds!
"Yikes!"
A cry of surprise echoed from within the valley, and ripples appeared once more on the formation. Finally, a middle-aged man materialized before Jiang Yun.
He had bronze skin and a powerful physique, like a towering iron pillar. The aura emanating from him allowed Jiang Yun to easily deduce that he was at the peak of the Fortunate Land realm.
With this level of strength, it posed no threat to Jiang Yun at all. Therefore, Jiang Yun's expression remained calm.
And the man merely glanced at Ginger Cloud before turning his gaze to Blood Wolf, a hint of envy in his eyes.
Obviously, he was far more interested in the Blood Wolf than Jiang Yun.
Finally, the man reluctantly withdrew his gaze from the blood wolf and turned to Jiang Yun: “This blood wolf, did you raise it yourself”
Jiang Yun nodded and said, "I guess so!"
The man pondered for a moment and said, "If you leave this blood wolf behind, I can answer you three questions. Or, you name your price, our village is willing to buy it!"
Jiang Yun shook his head and said, "Sorry, I won't keep this blood wolf, nor am I willing to sell it!"
The man suddenly darkened his face and said, "Don't you think that with this blood wolf, I can't do anything to you"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the man suddenly raised his hand. The earth trembled violently, and a deafening roar came from below.
This raised a slight eyebrow from Ginger Cloud, who gave a faint smile and said, "Want to try"
