Jiang Zheng stayed at the Wang sisters' place for a few days and met with Cen Xiao during that time. Then, he bade farewell with Zhong 'er and prepared to find a suitable place to build a cave abode on the continent.
Because he wasn't in a hurry and Zhong 'er didn't have the ability to fly now, he simply took out a cloud raft to carry him.
Zhong 'er stood at the head of the raft and held the little white fox on his head. He looked around with his eyes wide open. Although it wasn't his first time flying, the wilderness of Kun Shi continent that was different from the countries of human path still gave him a sense of novelty.
Suddenly, a shadow swept past above his head. He couldn't help but be startled and turned his head to look. His eyes caught a fiery crown and emerald feathers that looked like a snake and a bird, but it quickly disappeared into the clouds.
He asked curiously, "Master, what is that? It's so big. " “
Jiang Zheng said, "That should be a dragon sparrow bird. Normally, it's no more than ten zhang long. If it's a dragon sparrow king, it's a hundred zhang long. Only then can it be considered big. These birds may look gorgeous, but they are stupid and have low intelligence.
Of course, if it really had intelligence, then it wouldn't dare to fly above his head. However, he wouldn't argue with a bird.
Zhong 'er asked with yearning, "Master, when can Zhong' er fly like a bird?"
Jiang Zheng smiled and said, "After you open your meridians, Master will give you an artifact and you will be able to fly."
Zhong 'er said, "Zhong' er knows. Zhong 'er is already practicing breathing, but the two martial uncles said that I need three to five years to open my meridians. It's really too long."
Jiang Zheng said, "Your two martial uncles are right, but three to five years is still too short. You can't be impatient. You need to know that this is a foundation that must be firm. Like the wings of a bird, only when they are strong and strong can they spread their wings and soar into the sky."
Zhong 'er said loudly, "Yes, Master, Zhong' er will remember." He carried the little white fox on his head and nodded together.
Jiang Zheng smiled. At this moment, he turned his gaze and suddenly noticed that there was a place in the distance that was slightly different. He looked in that direction and discovered that it was an earthen city that was adjacent to a lake. The living beings that lived in it were actually people of human path. He said in surprise, "There's actually a human path tribe here?"
According to what he knew, most of the people of the Human Path were gathered in Zhaoyuan, and the only one outside was the State of Fu. He did not expect there to be another one here. This place was more than ten thousand miles away from Zhaoyuan, and there were so many ferocious beasts in the wilderness that there were even those that could fly in the sky and tunnel underground. It was almost impossible for the two sides to communicate, so how did these people get here?
He thought for a moment, then urged the cloud raft to move closer to that place.
As soon as he arrived above the city, he saw a woman with shapely eyebrows and red lips, dressed in light makeup, appearing out of thin air at the head of the raft. She bowed to him and said, "This little girl greets Shangzhen."
Jiang Zheng looked at him and asked politely, "Is Her Highness a god of this place?"
The woman said, "Yes, I am loved and respected by the people here, they call me 'Lady Lu Changjun'."
Jiang Zheng asked, "Where did these people of the Human Path come from, and why are they living here?"
Lu Changjun sighed softly, and after a brief explanation, Jiang Zheng finally understood where these people came from.
Back then, there was a chaotic war between the states of the Human Path on Zhaoyuan, and after many states were defeated, their officials were exiled from the Human Path territory, and one of them slowly migrated here.
Logically speaking, the barren land was filled with ferocious beasts, and it was difficult for them to reach here. However, at that time, the cultivators from the heavens descended to the lower realm, and not only did they set up abodes everywhere, they even hunted all kinds of ferocious beasts to make instruments and pills. There was also a god who set up a place of enlightenment, and as long as there were living beings, they would be protected, so they stubbornly survived.
However, it was difficult to survive on the barren land, and there were only about ten thousand of them.
Jiang Zheng could imagine how difficult it was here, and he sighed, "Her Highness has done a great service."
Lu Changjun covered her face with her sleeves, and she seemed to be sobbing, "I am here to protect the people, and I don't know how old I am. Moreover, my position is low, and it is difficult for me to reach the ears of the heavens. The Divine Lord has not summoned me for a long time, and I might have forgotten about it. Now that I have received a compliment from the Divine Lord, I have no regrets."
Jiang Zheng said, "Don't worry, when I return, I will definitely explain this to the Yuan Zun. You have done a great service for the Human Path, and you will not be buried here."
Lu Changjun bowed to him, and she said, "I thank the Divine Lord, but can you please not report this to the Divine Lord?"
Jiang Zheng asked curiously, "Why?"
Lu Changjun said softly, "I have been here for a long time, and I am familiar with everything here. In the beginning, there were only a few hundred people here, but now, there are more than ten thousand of them. Everyone here is like my children, and I cannot bear to leave them. Moreover, if the new Divine Lord comes, he might not love them as much as I do."
Jiang Zheng was filled with respect, and he nodded, "The Divine Lord is righteous." He thought for a while, and he said, "You don't have to worry about this, Divine Lord. There is a way to solve both problems here."
After a few more words, he bid farewell to Lu Changjun, and he looked down at the mountains for a while. He landed on a mountain that was not far from the city, and with a thought, a golden fire appeared out of nowhere, and in an instant, a cave was formed.
He said, "Zhong 'er, from now on, we will cultivate in that mountain, and we can also protect these people."
Zhong 'er was confused, "Master, aren't there Sister Changjun to protect them?"
Jiang Zheng shook his head, "These people have no one to teach them, and they can only rely on the gods. After all, it is not their own ability. If the gods are not around in the future, or if they have bad intentions, they will not even have the ability to protect themselves."
Zhong 'er hummed in agreement, and he raised his little face, "Zhong' er knows. Father said that the gods in heaven have bad tempers, master must be afraid that they will do something bad."
Jiang Zheng could not help but laugh. He rubbed his head and said, "This is not wrong. If those gods work for the benefit of the people, they are indeed worthy of respect. However, if they view the interests of the people and not themselves, then they are in the wrong. In that case, the people do not need to respect them. At that time, the people will only be able to declare their will when they have power in their hands. Our teaching is to give them power."
Zhong 'er thought for a while, and he asked, "Master, if the people have the power, will they not harm their own people?"
Jiang Zheng comforted him, "You can think of this, it is enough to show that you are smart. If there are only such people in the world, they will, but there are gods here, so both of them have their own scruples, and they will not go too far. However, the world changes, and it is not that simple. You do not need to understand these now. I give them the power, so that they can be independent. As for how to use it, it all depends on the people themselves. After all, we are detached from the world, and we do not need to interfere too much."
Zhong 'er seemed to understand, and he nodded his head.
Jiang Zheng smiled and no longer said these things.
He was different from the others in the sect. When he was young, he had always been traveling in the mortal world, so he had this thought. If it was other cultivators, even if they saw the people in trouble, they would only coldly watch from the sidelines. Those who were a bit better would casually help, but they would not care too much. In their eyes, the lifespan of mortals was only a hundred years. In a blink of an eye, these people in front of them would turn into dust, so why would they care too much?
After Jiang Zheng opened up the cave residence, he stayed here. In the following days, he cultivated with Zhong 'er and waited. As long as there was news from the Instrument of Myriad Worlds, he would immediately rush over.
Unknown World, inside the Poisonous Locust Mountain.
After Zhan Xinping knew that the other party came for him, he quickly ran outside.
In fact, he also understood that the Heavenly God Sect spent so much effort to invite him in, so they must have made a thorough arrangement. However, he was still unwilling. If he didn't try, who knew what the result would be?
However, he didn't go far before he noticed that something was wrong.
The first half of his journey relied on a secret technique, and the second half relied on the tunnel dug by the carps. This was only one direction, but at this moment, he felt that he was taking a detour.
He sneered and thought: "Such a small technique, don't think about stopping me."
He chanted a Barrier Breaking Incantation in his mind and wiped his eyes with his finger. He immediately saw through the illusion and rushed out regardless of whether there was a trap or not. It was not that he was careless, but if he was a bit slower, he might not be able to get out.
Just as he was about to reach the outside, a huge net with golden light flashing over his head came crashing down.
He angrily shouted as a sword talisman from his sect flew out from his body. It circled around in the air, and after a series of clanging sounds, this large net made of tough metal was cut by him. However, after the sword talisman came back, it dimmed a bit; it was obvious that it was used up a lot. However, as he poured his inner energy into it, it brightened up again.
He swallowed another dan in time, and his inner energy increased as he continued to rush out.
At this moment, on top of the mountain outside, there were more than ten people standing there, watching the situation here.
These people all wore exquisite and luxurious clothing, but from the nose down, they all wore half a mask. A man with a long crown covering his face stood in the middle of this group; it seemed like he was their leader.
At this moment, this person asked: "Is it this person?"
The person next to him answered: "Reporting to Emissary, the person the Grand Shaman was talking about should be this person."
The emissary doubtfully said: "Can this person really topple our Heavenly God Sect? This time, we only set up a small trap, yet he was tricked. It seems that he is only so-so. "
The person next to him said: "This person doesn't know that I am looking for him. If he knew the importance of his sect, then he wouldn't have come."
Someone flattered: "Our Heavenly God Sect is blessed by the heavens, and we are the descendants of the Heavenly Saint. How could a small variable go against the will of the heavens?
Just Now, when he said this, he saw a bronze mirror flying out from Zhan Xinping's body. It shone towards the outside, and the traps that were arranged all around, as well as the maze barrier, all melted away like snow melting under the blazing sun. It seemed that he could rush out.
Seeing this, everyone's expression changed.
The emissary didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. On the contrary, he revealed a very interested expression and said: "This person seems to have some ability, but I have never seen that magic treasure before. Later, capture it and bring it to me to see."
Someone couldn't help but say: "Emissary, our arrangements have been ruined, I'm afraid this person is about to escape."
The emissary, on the other hand, had an appearance of victory in his grasp and said: "No problem. Since he is here, he can't leave."
Zhan Xinping, seeing that there were no more obstacles in front of him, was ecstatic. He took out his flying boat and prepared to take advantage of the chaos to escape. However, he didn't expect that not long after, it seemed to have hit an invisible barrier, and the flying boat was also locked in the air.
He was shocked, and when he took a closer look, cold sweat broke out all over his body. Only now did he realize that all the ley lines in the surroundings had been combed through again and faintly fused into one. This was similar to the Great Mountain Barrier Formations he had seen in the past.
At this point, he knew that he had nowhere else to go, so he looked around and panted a few times. Then, he laughed loudly, and his laughter was filled with sorrow and unwillingness. He then said hatefully, "You all forced me to do this!"
He raised his sleeve and took out the Escape Realm Pearl, then raised it into the sky.
When the people from Heavenly Saint Cult heard his bitter laughter, they all felt the pleasure of teasing their prey, but the moment he took out the Escape Realm Pearl, everyone, including the emissary, had a bad premonition. However, before they could react, they saw that beam of light rushing into the sky from the pearl. The night turned into day, and in just a moment, a Weili that shook the world descended into the world!
