Zhe Jun carefully flew through the sea of clouds, constantly paying attention to his surroundings. It must be said that Zhe Jun's appearance was really worth looking at. This person was born with the head of a deer and the eyes of a mouse. A pair of buckteeth protruded from his lips, and his short hair made him look like a mouse spirit.
Zhe Jun was also a very interesting person. This person didn't have any shortcomings. His only flaw was that he liked to take advantage of others. Moreover, his hands and feet were very dishonest. He liked to do petty theft. However, he was also very timid. He didn't dare to provoke ordinary people. Because of this, his life was quite easy.
But five years ago, he stole from a cultivator who looked very ordinary. He took the cultivator's storage card and opened it to take a look. There were a lot of good things inside. Cloud Fruit Wine, Cloud Rice, and a lot of Cloud Crystals. These were all good things.
But before Zhe Jun could be happy, he heard that a family was tracking him down. They said that he had lost something that belonged to a steward of the family. This made Zhe Jun afraid. Although that person was just a steward, compared to a thief like him, he was much stronger. Dealing with him would be as easy as killing an ant.
Zhe Jun was so scared that he didn't dare to stay in his original whitecloud island. He ran to the Hidden Cloud Village and stayed there for five years. Later on, he discovered that the Hidden Cloud Village was quite good. There was no one to care about him and he could live a carefree life. Moreover, from time to time, he could go to the sea of beasts and catch two small cloud beasts. Although he couldn't sell them for a lot of money, it was enough for him to eat and drink.
Moreover, Zhe Jun had a problem. He had a preference for rats. He had dozens of rats in his cloud card. These rats were also cloud beasts. However, they could only provide limited help to people. Because of this, most people didn't like to use them. However, Zhe Jun liked to use rats as his cloud beasts. Although these rats couldn't provide him with a lot of energy, they were still very helpful to him. Because of this, Zhe Jun slowly became famous in the Hidden Cloud Village and was given the nickname Ghost Rat Zhe Jun.
In fact, no one knew that there was a big reason why Zhe Jun liked to use rats as his cloud beasts. In the past, Zhe Jun didn't use rats as his cloud beasts. After the cloud beasts were subdued, they needed to be fed with white clouds from time to time. Otherwise, the cloud beasts would die. When Zhe Jun escaped, a few of his cloud beasts died. Later on, he had no choice but to use rats.
However, after using rats, Zhe Jun discovered that rats could provide him with spiritual qi, allowing him to stay in the Sea of Clouds for a while. Moreover, rats had small appetites. Even if he fed dozens of them, it would still be more cost-effective than feeding other cloud beasts. Because of this, Zhe Jun switched to using rats as his cloud beasts.
In the Cloudsea Territory, everyone can use their cloud beasts to provide them with energy. However, it was strange that when the cloud beasts lived freely in the Cloudsea Territory, they wouldn't have any problems even if they didn't eat white clouds. However, once they were caught, they would need to be fed white clouds from time to time, otherwise they would die. When the cloud beasts lived freely in the Sea of Clouds, they could live for as long as they wanted. Once they were caught, they would give their energy to the cultivators of the Cloudsea Territory. The cultivators of the Cloudsea Territory would be able to move around for a short time without being affected by the dark clouds. However, after a long time, the cloud beasts would die and the cultivators would be in danger. The cultivators of the Cloudsea Territory would also be affected by the dark clouds.
Because of this, the cultivators of the Cloudsea Territory would also be affected by the dark clouds. Because of this, most people knew that if they didn't use a Cloudpiercing Ship, they wouldn't be able to move around for more than ten days. If they didn't return within ten days, then their cloud beasts would be in danger. Even if their cloud beasts didn't die, they would still be affected by the dark clouds and their strength would be affected.
However, after Zhe Jun used the rats as his cloud beasts, he discovered that the rats could survive in the Cloudsea Territory for 15 days without any problems. The rats would still be alive and kicking, and his strength wouldn't be reduced.
Although Zhe Jun made this discovery, he didn't tell anyone about it. He was very clear that he was too weak. If he told others about this, then he might bring disaster to himself. He just wanted to use this to make some money.
Today, Zhe Jun went out to catch cloud beasts. Zhe Jun's strength was only at the Core Formation Stage. Cultivators like him could be found everywhere in the Cloudsea Territory. He didn't have any special abilities, so he could only live at the bottom of the hierarchy. Usually, he would go out and catch cloud beasts, such as cloud rabbits and cloud cats, to sell for some money.
Zhe Jun carefully moved forward. With his strength, if he encountered a slightly stronger cloud beast, he would only end up as food for the cloud beast.
However, it was good that Zhe Jun's cloud beasts were rats. These rats were very powerful. As long as a high level cloud beast approached them, they would immediately panic. Zhe Jun's rats were the same.
While Zhe Jun was carefully moving forward, he suddenly felt the dark clouds in front of him rolling. Zhe Jun was startled, he was sure that something extraordinary was coming. However, what made him feel strange was that his cloud rats didn't make any noise. While Zhe Jun was startled, he suddenly felt his body tighten. When he looked down, he discovered that an iron chain had wrapped around his body.
Zhe Jun was startled. Just as he was about to break free, he discovered that all his strength had disappeared. He couldn't move at all. Just as he was startled, the iron chain tightened and pulled him forward.
Zhe Jun felt a blur in front of his eyes. He found himself on an incomparably huge ship, and in front of him stood a person.
However, when he saw this person, Zhe Jun was startled. This was because this person didn't look like someone from the Cloudsea Territory. Zhe Jun stared blankly at the person and even forgot to speak.
Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and smiled faintly as he said, "What's your name? Are you from the Hidden Cloud Village? "
Zhe Jun recovered. His pale face was now blue. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "May I ask who you are? Why did you tie me up? "
Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and said, "I'm the one asking the questions. Answer me honestly. Otherwise, I'll kill you first." Zhao Hai's tone was very dull, but Zhe Jun's heart skipped a beat. He didn't hear any trace of killing intent from Zhao Hai's voice. This made Zhe Jun even more afraid.
Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and said, "What's your name? Are you from the Hidden Cloud Village? "
Zhe Jun didn't dare to hide anything, so he quickly said, "This little one is called Zhe Jun. I came from the Hidden Cloud Village. Please spare my life. No matter what you say, this little one will obey."
Zhao Hai stared, he didn't think that Zhe Jun would be this quick-witted. He wanted to rely on Zhao Hai. This kid understood that if Zhao Hai didn't declare his position, then he would die.
When Zhe Jun said this, Zhao Hai didn't want to kill him. He could see that Zhe Jun was only at the Core Formation Stage. Such a person wouldn't be able to cause any trouble in his hands. Moreover, although Zhe Jun looked wretched, he was very clever. Accepting him as a servant wasn't a big deal.
Seeing that Zhao Hai didn't speak for a long time, Zhe Jun's heart couldn't help but beat faster. He already knew that although Zhao Hai's tone was calm and he couldn't sense any killing intent, this person wasn't someone to be trifled with. This was because they didn't take life seriously. Because of this, Zhe Jun immediately said that he would obey if Zhao Hai had any orders. He wanted to express his attitude and hope that Zhao Hai would accept him.
If it was any other cultivator, they wouldn't say such a thing. However, Zhe Jun had been at the bottom for a long time, so he knew how to read people's expressions. Moreover, for small characters like them, relying on a powerhouse wasn't a shameful thing. On the contrary, if they were chosen by a powerhouse, then they would be taken in as a subordinate, which would be even more advantageous.
Zhao Hai waved his hand as the chains on Zhe Jun disappeared. Then Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and said, "Zhe Jun, I'm from the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. Have you heard of the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield?"
Zhe Jun stared, then his expression changed. But he immediately bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "Yes, I've heard of it."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "It's good that you've heard of it. I know what the people of the Cloudsea Territory say about the people of the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. But I don't care. I'm here as a vanguard. In the future, the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield will have more contact with the Cloudsea Territory."
Zhao Hai's tone was still calm. However, Zhe Jun's body couldn't help but tremble. He knew what Zhao Hai meant. What Zhao Hai meant was that he wasn't afraid of Zhe Jun revealing his identity. This was because Zhe Jun was just a vanguard. Later on, there would be a large army from the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield.
Thinking of this, Zhe Jun knelt on the deck and kowtowed to Zhao Hai as he said, "This Junior is incompetent. It's my honor to receive Mister's attention today. If Mister has a use for this Junior, then this Junior is willing to be your servant!"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Get up. Since you're willing to be my servant, then you'll be my subordinate. I'll reward you today." Then he waved his hand as a dragon and a tiger appeared beside Zhao Hai. The dragon was a Thunder Dragon while the tiger was a Wind Tiger.
Zhe Jun was so scared that he didn't dare to move. He had been dealing with cloud beasts for a long time, so how could he not recognize the Thunder Dragon and the Wind Tiger? The dragon and the tiger were very famous in the Cloudsea Territory.
Zhao Hai said, "I'll reward you with the dragon and the tiger."
Zhe Jun thought that he heard wrong. He looked at Zhao Hai and stammered, "Master, you're saying that the dragon and the tiger are rewarded to me?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, then he nodded and said, "They're rewarded to you. From now on, they'll be your cloud beasts. If you have a beast token, then you can put it away. Right, what kind of cloud beast did you use before?"
As soon as Zhe Jun heard Zhao Hai, his face couldn't help but turn red. Then he lowered his head and said, "Replying to Master, this little one used a mouse." Zhe Jun felt his face turn red. Using a mouse as a cloud beast was too shameful.
However, he didn't expect Zhao Hai to just make an 'oh' sound. Then he said, "Let me take a look at your mice first." Zhe Jun didn't understand what Zhao Hai meant. So he took out his beast token and released the mice inside. When the mice came out, they were scared to the point that they were lying on the ground, not daring to move.
Zhao Hai waved his hand and received the mice inside the Space. Zhe Jun stared. Then Zhao Hai waved his hand and released the mice. Although the mice didn't grow in size, their aura had changed. Even when facing the dragon and tiger, they didn't show any fear.
Zhao Hai waved his hand and received the dragon and tiger. Then he looked at Zhe Jun and said, "Your mice have been transformed by me. You can use them later. The strength of these mice isn't much worse than the dragon and tiger. I won't be rewarding you with the dragon and tiger."
Although Zhe Jun's heart ached, he still received the mice inside his beast token. However, when he received the mice inside, he was startled. This was because the amount of spiritual energy that the mice gave him was too much. If the spiritual energy that the mice gave him before was like a cup of water, then the spiritual energy that the mice gave him now was like an endless river.
Zhe Jun was startled. He was now even more afraid of Zhao Hai. He clearly saw the mice turn around in Zhao Hai's hand before they changed. How could he not be startled? Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and said, "Stand up. Cultivate well in the future. Also, call me Young Master." Zhe Jun quickly complied and stood up.
Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and said, "I came to the Cloudsea Territory this time to act as a vanguard. The Hidden Cloud Village is remote, so it's suitable for me to use. I want to take it and use it as a temporary base. Now, tell me the situation of the Hidden Cloud Village as well as the experts in the village."
Zhe Jun didn't dare to delay as he quickly explained the situation of the Hidden Cloud Village. It must be said that the Hidden Cloud Village was located in the Whitecloud Island. The place wasn't big and the people living there were mostly fugitives. Naturally, there were some forces there, but they were just local ruffians. There weren't any great organizations there. The strongest person there was only a Transcending Tribulation Expert, there weren't even any Severed Soul Experts. However, there were a lot of people, about 50 thousand of them.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It would be troublesome to keep these 50 thousand people. We can kill them all. However, those who went out will come back sooner or later. If they find out about the changes in the Hidden Cloud Village, then I'm afraid they would spread the news. This would be troublesome."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Zhe Jun couldn't help but get scared. There were 50 thousand people here, yet Zhao Hai said that he would kill them all. Hearing Zhao Hai, Zhe Jun was glad that he made the decision. If he didn't join the Young Master, then he would already be a dead man.
Zhe Jun wiped the cold sweat on his head and said, "Young Master, although there are some villains in the Hidden Cloud Village, a lot of them were forced by the Great Clans. If the Young Master trusts this little one, then this little one is willing to persuade them to surrender."
Zhao Hai looked at Zhe Jun and said, "It's not impossible to persuade them to surrender. However, you have to remember one thing. You have to let them know my identity. Otherwise, when they see me, they would go back on their word. Do you understand?"
Zhe Jun quickly replied, "Yes, Young Master can rest assured. This little one will certainly do it well."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "How will you go back?"
Zhe Jun quickly replied, "This little one will go back by myself. The Young Master might not know, but this little one likes to use rats as cloud beasts. This is because I can stay in the Sea of Clouds for five days more than others. Therefore, the Young Master doesn't need to worry about me."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he waved his hand and said, "Go."
Zhe Jun nodded, then he flew out of the Hell King's ship and disappeared into the vast Sea of Clouds.
