Holding a coarse poplar staff with his left hand, Ji Hao was wearing a ragged and dirty straw raincoat and a pair of rough buffalo leather shoes. Slowly, he walked in the wild, which was covered in thorns.
Wherever Ji Hao passed by, a faint green light would be seen rotating in a thin red line between his eyebrows. Those thorns, which were thickly covered in poisonous thorns, were like living creatures. Their branches would quickly move away, creating a broad path for Ji Hao.
When Ji Hao passed by the stream, he saw tender and long grasses intertwining with each other, weaving into a foot-wide grass bridge. Stepping on the grass bridge, Ji Hao quickly crossed the stream.
When he walked past the stream, the rocks in the stream would float on the water surface, as steady as the pier of a bridge. Treading on the rocks, Ji Hao easily crossed the stream without getting any water stain on his body.
Some poisonous snakes in the bushes attempted to pounce on Ji Hao, but before they could launch their attacks, countless soft vines would coil them up from all directions and bind them.
Those wild beasts, who had been wandering around and hunting, discovered Ji Hao's silhouette. Before they could pounce on Ji Hao with their stomachs rumbling with hunger, a fierce gust of wind suddenly rose from the ground and blew these gigantic beasts far away, making them fall on the ground and piss their pants. They hurriedly turned around and fled.
Ji Hao closed his eyes and the erect eye between his eyebrows. He restrained his spirit power and walked quickly on the wild land purely with the power of the Full Moon Sky Eye and the natural powers he sensed.
Countless complicated and mysterious three-dimensional spell symbols had been rotating swiftly around Ji Hao's primordial spirit. These spell symbols were mastered by Jialou Yuanjia, and were the core structures of powerful Full Moon magics, which were never taught to outsiders.
Full Moon people were born with great talents. Therefore, they were born with a much better perception of natural powers than ordinary people. As long as they learned these secret spell symbols, they would be able to control the natural powers and launch powerful magic attacks.
To those Full Moon people, who didn't have any pursuits, as long as they mastered these spell symbols, they would be able to live a free life for the rest of their lives. However, Ji Hao was curious about the principles of these spell symbols. He had been trying to analyze and summarize these spell symbols in his own way.
These spell symbols came from another world, and were the product of a powerful race.
Ji Hao was curious about how much he would gain after he fully understood and controlled these structural spell symbols, and how great the reward would be.
A gust of wind rose under his feet as he walked quickly, passing numerous non-humankind villages.
This area was under the direct jurisdiction of Liang Zhu City. The land here was fertile, with well-planned farmlands everywhere. Peaceful villages were hidden in thriving forests, and faintly, one could hear the noises of domestic animals playing in the villages.
Ji Hao saw human slaves working in the vast farmlands, and over ninety percent of the crops in the farmlands were unknown to Ji Hao. Obviously, these crops were brought over from their own world.
As for the landlords of those villages, those non-humankind beings who stood high above the masses, Ji Hao saw them singing and dancing to their hearts' content. From morning to night, they had been drinking and having fun with their friends, or hunting in the mountains. All the important tasks of production had been handed over to human slaves.
Between the villages and towns, every fifty kilometers or so, there would be a castle standing in a place that was easy to defend and hard to attack.
This castle belonged to a landlord of the non-humankind, and a large number of warriors were stationed in the castle, responsible for guarding the territory.
Every five-hundred miles, the non-humankind would build a medium-sized city, which could hold hundreds of thousands of people. Similarly, a large number of warriors would be stationed in the city, and these warriors would cooperate with the castles to closely monitor and guard the territories of the non-humankind.
Every thousand miles, there would be a large-scale city, which could hold over a million people. Outside the city, there would be four battle forts, which were specially built for storing warriors. At least tens of thousands of warriors would be stationed in those forts.
Ji Hao's heart was a bit heavy. The Yu Dynasty, which was founded by the non-humankind, had such a strong and strict control over its territory. The Yu Dynasty's territory was like an impenetrable net, which had protected the entire territory.
In comparison, the alliance of human clans in Pu Ban City was like a sieve, which was full of holes. In terms of power structure, the alliance of human clans couldn't compare with the Yu Clan at all in terms of efficiency.
If the alliance of human clans didn't have a great advantage in population, and Yu Dynasty nobles hadn't been trying to make progress in the recent years, the humankind might not have suffered a complete defeat in the war between the humankind and the non-humankind, but at least, it wouldn't have been as easy as it was now.
Ji Hao was extra cautious all the way, avoiding all villages, castles and cities.
However, the further north he went and the closer he was to Liang Zhu City, the denser the non-humankind's cities, castles, sentry posts, and sky patrols became. Besides, Ji Hao had also sensed strong waves of air ripples sweeping across the air. Those were large-scale divine watchtowers built by the non-humankind, which could monitor everything happening in the sky, on the ground, and underground at all times.
Therefore, no matter how cautious Ji Hao was, when he was less than a thousand miles away from Liang Zhu City, a small-scale floating mountain abruptly stopped above his head. Next, four light patrols, each with around a hundred warriors, had already surrounded him with rumbling footsteps.
Ji Hao stopped, stood still, and silently looked at these non-humankind patrols.
Each of these patrolling cavalries was assigned a Jia Clan officer, assisted by around twenty dark-kind warriors, and the remaining eighty to ninety patrolling cavalries were all human slave warriors.
Judging from their armors, the Jia Clan officer was wearing a full set of heavy armors, while the dark-kind warriors were wearing high-quality soft armors. As for those human slave warriors, although they were wearing standard military uniforms, they didn't wear armors, and the weapons held in their hands were ordinary steel blades, swords, and spears.
Ji Hao couldn't help but be surprised. Last time, during the Chi Ban Mountain War, he didn't find such a large proportion of human slave warriors in the non-humankind army.
He didn't think that in the territory under the direct jurisdiction of Liang Zhu City, the number of human slave warriors took such a large proportion of the non-humankind army.
A Jia Clan warrior leaped down from his mount and walked to Ji Hao with rumbling steps, looking down at Ji Hao and said, "Oi, show me your ID. What was a person doing running around in the wilderness for no reason? You better not be a runaway slave. Otherwise, I will pull out your spine myself. "
Ji Hao took off his straw cloak and showed his pale face.
A red line slowly opened between his eyebrows, and an erect eye glowed brightly. Ji Hao snorted slightly and released a strong spiritual power, spreading out in all directions. The mounts of the four patrol troops screamed out simultaneously, being frightened by the spiritual pressure released by Ji Hao and disabled from moving.
"I am a wandering cultivator, trying my best to find the true meaning of Full Moon. I am a bit tired, so I want to go back to Liang Zhu City and find a place to rest for a couple of days. You lowly things, are you trying to ruin my cultivation? "
Ji Hao proudly looked at the Jia Clan warrior in front of him, who was dumbfounded, then flicked his finger and released an invisible, tremendous power that sent this Jia Clan warrior flying for over a mile away. The terrifying air blast shattered the Jia Clan warrior's armor, made him vomit blood, and disabled him from standing back up for a while.
