Chapter 675

(Unedited)



Ian Gi, a commander of a small unit of silver armored protectors was suddenly called by one of the town clan lords. Those who are not in the know thought that he would be receiving an award. But those who knew, feel pity towards him.

This is because they knew who called Ian Gi, Vitol town's most dreadful clan lord, Jinga Vin.

Although he acts in righteousness, many knew that all of his actions are excessive and extreme. He portrays a bright temperament, but in truth, a deep ruthlessness is under that surface.

After knocking and receiving confirmation, Ian Gi enters the room, he saw a young man wearing white while calmly meditating in the middle of the room.

"Come and sit…" Jinga Vin said with his eyes still closed.

"Yes, clan lord…" Ian Gi sat on the couch facing the cross-legged Jinga Vin.

"How many years has it been since you enter the immortal land?"

Upon hearing the question from the lord of Vin clan in town, Ian Gi was a bit taken aback. He didn't know why he is being asked this question. He has already expected to be scolded because of what he did and because of the situation with Kevin Gart. So he didn't know what the clan lord expected from him.

"Ah… Around 150 years already,… my… my lord."

"That's good… it seems that you should be considered as a veteran now, right?"

"Umm… Ye… yes… Yes, my lord."

"Then can you tell me… how did a mere peasant escape your group? And the information you gave us is also false… Why is that?" Jinga Vin's calm words made Ian Gi feel a tingling sensation in his spine.

He knew that he would be facing the wrath of their clan lord this time.

"This… Let me explain my lord… I… we… we've been searching for that man for many days a while back. But he uses many tricks to escape us… So we are unable to find him… Please… please give me another chance… I will capture him myself, my lord… I promise you that." Ian Gi frantically tried to explain and compromise.

"Very well… I will give you 1 month, to search and capture that person. If not, then you will be sent to the dungeons."

The calm and cold words from the Vin clan lord made Ian Gi feel despair in his heart. How could he not know what is inside those dungeons? That is place is like the worse nightmare an immortal could experience.

Thought they have the power and strength to be able to defeat the shadow creatures and the wild beasts in the immortal land, but once inside that dungeon, their minds will break and they would be turned into wastes.

He didn't want to suffer such a thing.

With a clenched fist, Ian Gi steeled his resolve to catch that rogue peasant and make him suffer before giving him to their clan lord.



Meanwhile, inside an unknown underground, Shin Jiao has finally landed on the ground. The monster which he saw while falling is an illusion. Those who would fall in that illusion would not be prepared to land and would possibly suffer grave injury.

When he landed, he saw many vines on the ground. From the looks of it, those vines are actually alive.

After checking his surroundings, Shin Jiao decided to walk through the dark cavern. But with the small lamp in his hand, he could see everything clearly.

Not long later, he soon arrives inside a huge room.

As soon as he steps inside, a stone door suddenly blocks his path.

"What is this? What is happening?" Shin Jiao thought as he vigilantly looks around the room.

However, after a few minutes have passed, nothing happened. Even after scanning the room with his psychokinesis, he found that the room is just an ordinary room with many books, scrolls, a mat, and energy orbs just lying everywhere.

After checking his surroundings, Shin Jiao noticed that those books are actually written in runes. And so this piqued his interest.

As someone who has studied runes and glyphs for a long time now, runes have already gained his interest. Plus for some unknown reason, ever since he came to this place, for some unknown reason he could already understand what the people around him are saying.

It was like some strong power is controlling this land and there are many things he could not understand.

It is not suppression, but the understanding of something which he lacked so that he could freely use his powers. That is what Shin Jiao has already concluded.

And now in front of him is a wealth of possible knowledge about this place.

Since he could not go anywhere after trying his best to open the stone door, Shin Jiao decided to read those books and scrolls.

After just reading the title of one of the books on the table, Shin Jiao's interest was immediately piqued.

This is because the title of that thin book is called, 'Essence of the universe energy'.

"This book… This is what I needed." Shin Jiao muttered as he began scanning the content of the book.

Once he did that, he was immediately immersed in deep study. And then he began reading the other books and for some time, he did not think of anything else but reading.

One day… two days… three days…

One week… two weeks… one month…

A month has passed ever since he came to the room.

Shin Jiao is sitting crossed legged while beads of sweat are covering his forehead. After studying the books and scrolls inside the room, he has discovered and has already somewhat understood the way of improving oneself in this land.

This land is actually controlled not by a powerful being, but by laws. The complete laws of the universe are inside this place. That means that once you have gained more in this world when the time comes that you will need to leave this place, then you will have gained more power and control in the universe outside.

The reason why immortals have been sent to this place is that they are trained to be able to fight against the shadow beings and demons in the universe outside. This is what the humans and other species in the universe finally came up to able to combat the dangers of the universe.

He also learned that the yin and yang of the universe are an equal balance. The yin side is where the shadow beings reside, and the yang side is where the other species reside. However, the shadow beings wanted more as it is in their nature. And the war between the two forces has started hundreds of millions or even billions of years ago.

And until now, this war has never ended and will never end, because it is called an eternal war.

So an immortal should not be concerned about winning this unending battle, all they need to concern about is being able to protect and build their own worlds. Because only through protecting and building could they secure the future.

After learning many things about the books, Shin Jiao's perspective and understanding have been enlightened. He now knew what he should do. But first, he has to be able to gain power. That is the only way to survive in this world.

Although he could rely on his gears, he still has to make himself stronger for his gears to also become strong.

And because of that, he has followed the pattern on how to absorb the universe's energy and the Dao laws.

"My body… I think I was not chosen by the clan because of the weakness of my body and my essence."

According to the books, the red blood in his body was actually changed into the universe's essence, that's why it should be golden in color. However, for some unknown reason, his essence still has traces of the red mortal blood in them.

This is the reason why he is having a hard time right now.

Shin Jiao did not give up and continue trying to absorb the universe's energy around him.

And another day has passed.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao noticed that his dantian is reacting. It was as if something is trying to break out. His dantian seems like an egg with life inside of it trying to break the shell.

Crack! Crack!

Shin Jiao could hear it in his mind and feel weird.

Then suddenly a small hole was punctured and a large amount of universe energy suddenly rushed in towards that small hole.

Shin Jiao could feel his dantian slowly expanding the spheres which were devoid of energy is slowly being filled.

One sphere, two spheres, three spheres…

He could feel his strength and the weakness of his body being relieved. He could not feel strong vitality coursing through his veins and meridians.

Soon, Shin Jiao was now able to scan his own body due to the presence of the coursing energy around his veins and meridians.

However, he is still unable to use his absolute sense or spiritual sense. But this is already enough for him to be able to survive in the immortal land.

Shin Jiao suddenly tried using his ring, and in one go, he is able to see everything inside. With that, a smile crept on his face.

He began experimenting on this and another week has passed since then.



Meanwhile, outside, deep in the forest, Ian Gi and a team of 20 silver armored protectors are currently scouring everywhere.

Ian Gi has a disheveled look on his face, as it has already taken them more than one month in search for the rogue peasant.

"Damn it… where could that guy be?" Ian Gi curses as his group rested for a while.

Suddenly, one of the silver armored protectors ran towards him in a hurry.

"Commander, you have to see this…"

Ian Gi didn't want to move, but looking from the anxious look on that young man, he knew that something is amiss.

He and his group followed that guy and they saw a small cave near a slope.

When Ian Gi wanted to walk forward, the young man stopped him.

"Commander, be careful… this place has an array…" just after saying that, a long coiling vine suddenly sprang to attack the group.

They wanted to dodge, but they found out that on their feet, small vines are already holding them down.

Without a choice, everyone was sent tumbling directly towards that cave.
