Widow Village.
Widow Village could no longer be called a village. Because of Ji Zhiyuan's arrival and the protector of Widow Village, when the people in the towns around Widow Village heard the news, there were only one or two at first. When they realized that Ji Zhiyuan did not reject anyone, they migrated here in large numbers.
In just a few days, thousands of people had gathered in Widow Village. Among these people, not all of them were farmers of the lowest class. There were also bandits, killers, and assassins who were not doing well in life. After obtaining Ji Zhiyuan's approval, they built houses around Widow Village. Although they were still in their infancy, they were already starting to take the shape of a town.
Those who chose to migrate obviously hoped to be protected. Those who hoped to be protected either did not do well or were more dutiful. So up until now, there had not been any intense conflicts.
The major cities of Giant Deer Territory did not react.
But Ji Zhiyuan knew that chaos would happen sooner or later. At that time, her ability to govern would be the key to whether this place could survive.
In Widow Village, there was a small house next to the well. It was less than six feet in circumference, but it was very clean.
Ji Zhiyuan sat cross-legged on the bed. There was a mysterious aura circulating around her body. Her robe moved slightly, and her beautiful hair also fluttered under the invisible force field.
If someone was here, they would notice that there were layers of unknown and exquisite runes circulating around her body. These runes seemed to be attracted by gravity and continued to revolve around her body.
Every time they revolved, threads of vital energy would enter Ji Zhiyuan's body.
She was obviously cultivating, but her cultivation method was very different from others. If this scene were to spread, it would probably cause a stir in the cultivation world. Because when all cultivators wanted to be convinced, they would open the Heavenly Gate. Vital energy could only enter through the Heavenly Gate and circulate through the five organs. It would be purified and finally become vital energy.
But she looked like her entire body could absorb vital energy. Also, Giant Deer Territory was so barren. It was unknown where this visible vital energy came from.
Suddenly, there was a "ding dong" sound. The sound of water dripping came from somewhere.
Indistinct, mysterious, and unfathomable.
"Ding dong!"
There was another sound. This time, it was not loud, but everyone in Widow Village heard it. It was as if it was happening in their hearts.
Although they did not know where the sound came from, they instinctively looked towards the hut.
At this moment, the talismans surrounding Ji Zhiyuan suddenly disappeared. Time seemed to stop in the entire cottage, causing her robe and hair to freeze. After a moment of silence, changes occurred again.
When the change occurred, the force field around her suddenly expanded, and peach blossoms surged out from the void.
Silently, the entire house, except for the bed on her body, turned into dust.
A translucent light shield gushed out along with the aura. Peach blossoms danced around Ji Zhiyuan inside the light shield like pink butterflies. The light shield itself was like a glowing cocoon, which was especially eye-catching in the dark night.
Everyone was attracted to her and stared blankly at the god-like Ji Zhiyuan inside the light dome. On one hand, they were amazed by her beauty, and on the other hand, they were in awe of her.
In front of this divinity, those who had made mistakes before could not help but feel ashamed of their inferiority.
In fact, to be able to survive in this dark and chaotic place until now, which person was clean? Even if there was, they were powerless. There were definitely no good people here.
Therefore, in front of the truth called "survival," this divinity only stayed in their hearts for a very short time. However, although it was a very short time, it was a powerful seed.
"Drip …"
This time, the sound was not as heavy. It was very soft, but everyone could clearly see the changes in Ji Zhiyuan's body and the evolution of some kind of aura.
Those who had experienced or recognized this phenomenon changed their expressions. "She, she is breaking through the realm …"
Another person shouted, "Cultivation, she is breaking through the realm of cultivation!" He could no longer use words to describe his shock.
Moreover, no one present laughed at his shock, because even those who did not understand this phenomenon were shocked after hearing this sentence.
The experts who died in her hands.
More than half of them were cultivators.
However, she had just broken through the realm of cultivation. What did this mean?
For those who were just here to observe the situation, and for those who might have been sent by the major cities to spy on the news, their minds changed at the same time.
However, no one noticed the mysterious runes on the peach blossoms dancing around Ji Zhiyuan.
This process did not last very long. When all the elemental energy in Ji Zhiyuan's body was transformed into vital energy, all the strange phenomenon disappeared and everything returned to peace.
"Master!"
Yue 'er came out of nowhere and threw herself into Ji Zhiyuan's arms. "You finally broke through. Can we set off to Beitang?"
Ji Zhiyuan slowly opened her eyes, a strange light flashed. She bent her finger and lightly flicked Yue 'er's plump forehead. "Didn't you say that Xiaolian wanted to go? You are more enthusiastic than her."
Yue 'er snickered and touched her forehead. She pouted and said, "I also want to see the fireworks. There is no candied haws here. "
Speaking of this, she pulled Ji Zhiyuan's hand. "Master, Master, when we get to Beitang, I want to buy a lot of candied haws."
"They will spoil," Ji Zhiyuan said.
"Don't you have a Qiankun bag?" Yue 'er said indifferently.
"Those with quality preservation talismans are very expensive."
…
In an underground secret cave in the Unknown Place.
The space here was very spacious. The whole thing looked like an altar. In the middle was a huge altar carved with runes, and the surroundings were circular.
The altar seemed to be connected to the surroundings. There were thirteen of them.
If a powerhouse in the Insight Realm was here, he would find thirteen thick spiritual lights continuously rushing to thirteen directions.
These thirteen directions were distributed in the void around the altar. The small oval space formed by the black runes was like a cocoon, and inside were black humanoid shadows.
Suddenly, the altar shone brightly. An indescribable divine light gushed out and formed an illusion that looked like a map or a sand table in the void above the altar.
This illusion was very huge. If someone compared it with the map, it would be a miniature version of the human world.
"There's a mission."
Within the thirteen oval rune spaces, the image of a bald shadow shook irregularly. "It's the Giant Deer Realm …"
Before he finished speaking, the illusion suddenly disappeared.
The bald shadow stopped first, then shook again after a while. "Huh, is the Dragon Vein here going to dry up?"
"Vulture, your Beitang mission hasn't been completed yet. This should be my turn!" The image of a wavy shadow shook.
"Ah, this needs a location. I'm too lazy to look for it," the bald shadow said.
"Dan." A shadow in a cloak shook.
A shadow said in a drunken voice, "Dragon, uh … Queen Jinwu is in Bu Luo City. I uh … It's hard for me to come into contact with her. Nest has already built a stronghold … uh …"
Another shadow sneered. "Dan, there's nothing you can do other than drink."
"Uh … get lost …"
The shadow in the cloak said, "I'll think of a way to lure out Queen Jinwu. You and Nest hurry up. Jun. "
"Dragon?" the wavy shadow said.
"You'll complete the search mission for the Giant Deer Realm yourself," the shadow in the cloak said, "I have another mission for Jin."
"No problem," the wavy shadow said.
…
Yan Li really wanted to go to the Heavenly Strategies Tower to broaden his horizons.
When he saw the wooden signs outside the Heavenly Strategies Tower, his impression of them was similar to those swindlers selling fake medicine. He felt that they were not reliable, so he did not try to find out Ji Zhiyuan's whereabouts from there.
After Liang Junshan's narration, the Heavenly Strategies Tower became mysterious and powerful in his mind. He might really be able to find her whereabouts.
So he went there that afternoon. Unfortunately, he only saw Yan Shiyi's news. The only other possibility was "the mysterious woman in the Giant Deer Realm". However, the two places were tens of thousands of miles apart, so he could not confirm it in a short time.
However, it was the only clue he had at the moment. He planned to go to the Giant Deer Realm without stopping no matter what happened after he dealt with Ji Lianmei.
That night, he began to carry out his plan.
The closest place to his current residence on the map was the Yanshui Courtyard. It was said that it was the residence of the Head Instructor Wang Mingwei. After thinking about it, he decided to put this for later. He did not intend to choose a Man Fairy of Martial Arts as his opponent. If he was discovered, it would not be a joke.
During the day, he used his identity as an advisor to walk around the entire mansion. As an advisor, he had the right to do so openly. However, if he was a third-class Protector, he would probably be arrested and interrogated immediately.
He quickly chose his second target. It was a secluded woodshed with a bamboo forest in the backyard.
He changed into a nocturnal suit and sneaked all the way. During this period, he encountered several groups of patrolling guards, but they were all daunting but not dangerous.
He found a place with loose soil and observed his surroundings. After confirming that there was no one around, he reached into his bosom and took out his Qiankun Bag. He put his hand inside and took out a square-shaped brick-like object.
This thing felt cold, just like an iron box. However, it did not have a lid and was completely sealed. It was not as heavy as iron. However, there was a shallow groove on one side, and a circle was drawn along the edge. In the middle of the circle, there was a small hole.
Following Gu Haiyuan's instructions, he placed his hand on the small hole and slowly released his Vital Qi.
Suddenly, he felt a suction force, and a large amount of Vital Qi was extracted from the Source Sea.
Yan Li endured the discomfort. The suction force only stopped after about one-third of his Vital Qi was extracted.
He looked again and found that there were three strange talismans on the other three sides. One of them looked like a bird with small wings but a huge body. No matter how it flapped its wings, it could not fly.
Anyway, no matter how much he studied it, he could not understand it. Following Gu Haiyuan's instructions, he dug a hole and buried it. After filling it with soil, he scattered some dried leaves and prepared to leave.
At this moment, he suddenly heard two footsteps.
