At the same time, a golden battle pattern naturally condensed within his body.
His power increased by one vajra force.
“Great wine!” Jiang Ming praised.
“I’m glad Brother Jiang likes it.” Qingyan was delighted and slowly talked about the situation in the Million Mountains, “There are three major forces here: the Elf Clan, our Qing Luan Clan, and the Dwarves.”
The Qing Luan Clan did not like fights, preferring to hold their territory and wander the vast sky; the Dwarves were miners and blacksmiths, renowned as famous craftsmen in the Warzone of Ten Thousand Tribes.
The Elf Clan cherished the forest and nature, loved cleanliness, and appreciated flowers and plants. In their dwelling place, other than the Flower Fairies who took care of the plants and the Ancient Tree of War guarding the entrance, they disliked other creatures.
They especially loathed the dirty Dwarves.
With the expansion of the Elf Clan’s territory, the Dwarves were expelled first.
Having no other choice, the Dwarves retreated into barren mountains, living in caves beneath the great mountains and opening up an underground world. They used the earth’s fire to forge, which also served as self-protection.
The expansion of the Elf Clan also drove away the Peng Clan, Flying Sparrow Clan, Pheasant Tribe, White Wolf Tribe, Black Bull Tribe, Earth Dragon Clan, Pegasus Clan, and other races that lived in the mountains.
Those who did not submit were killed.
Bloody slaughter befell countless creatures, making the expanded forest of the Elf Clan appear extraordinarily clean and tidy, with a pleasant, floral fragrance.
Finally, it was the Qing Luan Clan’s turn, and the two clans waged a great war.
Both sides had victories and losses.
Slowly, the various races that had been expelled gradually turned to the Qing Luan Clan, starting to defend and fight back, and have now suppressed the Elf Clan.
“As for me…” Qingyan made a face, as sadness welled up in her heart and her voice lowered slightly, “I have always grown up in the clan without worries or hardships, living a happy life, but I have never been out. As I grew up and achieved my cultivation level, I became more and more eager for the outside world. But my Bug Queen mother was worried about my safety and did not let me leave, even when I reached the Ninth Realm.”
“Our Qing Luan Clan longs for the sky and freedom, and we are all full of the same pursuit due to the nature of life. Naturally, I am no exception.”
“Over time, my longing for the outside world grew.”
“I secretly sneaked out a few times, but every time the Bug Queen caught me and took me back, even during the war with the Elf Clan, I had no chance.”
“A few days ago, the Bug Queen began closed-door training, and I persuaded Little Jin to go out with me. We said we would just stroll around. After coming out, I naturally wasn’t content with just that. I wanted to leave the Million Mountains and see the outside scenery, but I didn’t expect to be targeted by Bai Ziliang.”
“To protect me, Little Jin was killed!”
Qingyan’s eyes reddened as she spoke, and two strings of clear tears fell.
“A dead person cannot be resurrected. Be strong!” Jiang Ming could only comfort her.
“Although I have never been outside, I have witnessed many life and death situations.” Qingyan cheered up and said, “Fortunately, you avenged Little Jin. When I go back to the clan later, I will give Little Jin a proper burial.”
“Did you send the message back?” Jiang Ming asked suddenly.
“Yes!” Qingyan didn’t hide it, carefully glancing at him before saying, “I have a special way of passing messages. When I was collecting Little Jin’s remains, I sent back the news of his death and Bai Ziliang being killed. Brother Jiang, I didn’t say that you saved me, only that a passing powerful person did. I also said that I would be going out for a while and asked my Bug Queen mother not to look for me.”
“Aren’t you afraid your Bug Queen mother will worry?”
“Let her worry! I’ve grown up, and I will eventually go out and see the world, gain experience, and increase my knowledge. If I don’t go for a walk, my heart will never be calm, and it will be difficult to improve my cultivation level even more. Perhaps, after gaining more experience, I’ll understand my Bug Queen mother’s worries.”
Jiang Ming couldn’t help but laugh.
That was a rebellious little girl.
“I have to return to Sky Martial City. Are you sure you want to follow me?” Jiang Ming stood up.
He had to go back and see.
Check if Wang Qiutong and Ye Bai had returned.
And inquire about Chen Bei and Holy Heart’s situation.
At the same time, calculate whether it has indeed been two years in the outside world.
Jiang Ming also had a hidden concern: an invasion by alien races.
“Yes, I’ll follow!” Qingyan agreed without hesitation, “When I was in the clan, the Clan Elders often spoke about the outside world and said that among the Ten Thousand Clans Battlefield, human life is the most fascinating and their civilization the richest. If they could walk through human territory and live there for a while, their wisdom would grow and their experience would skyrocket. My Bug Queen mother also said that once my cultivation level improved further, she would find a chance to send us to the human territory to live for a while. Now that I’ve met you, Brother Jiang, I believe it’s fate’s favor.”
Jiang Ming was speechless.
Favor? But you almost got killed!
“Let’s go then!” Jiang Ming rose into the sky, covering a distance of a kilometer in one step.
Qingyan easily kept up with him.
“Brother Jiang, could you tell me about your situation?”
“Me? It’s very simple. I went to school, kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, high school, university, and after coming to the Outerworld battlefield, I accidentally ended up in the Million Mountains.”
“I’ve heard about human schools where people of the same age gather to learn, live, and cultivate together. It must be so fun and enjoyable. Brother Jiang, you must be very happy and joyful there, right?”
“Uh… well, kindergarten might be happy, but once you start elementary school, it becomes painful!”
“Painful? That’s impossible, right? Everyone there is a playmate, how could it be painful? Unlike me, who’s tormented by a bunch of old guys teaching me how to study and cultivate.”
“Familiar places lack scenery.”
The two chatted as they walked.
Qingyan endlessly asked questions, causing warmth to return to Jiang Ming’s heart, which had been gradually growing colder due to his two years in the Death Forbidden Zone.
Their speed increased as well with their good mood.
This place was nothing like the Lost Land, there wasn’t any fog enveloping it, and all one could see were vast landscapes. Especially now, Jiang Ming activated the Eye of Heavenly Mandate, allowing him to see faraway places.
With Qingyan’s guidance, they continuously used instant teleportation to quickly leave the Million Mountains and return to Sky Martial City.
Upon appearing above a long river and just as he was prepared to teleport away again, Jiang Ming sensed a terrifying energy fluctuation in the distance.
It felt familiar, too.
“There’s a Tenth Realm powerful being fighting!” Qingyan concluded after just a brief sensing.
As a Ninth Realm cultivator with the bloodline of the Qing Luan Clan, her strength was formidable.
She only seemed weak when facing Bai Ziliang.
“Shall I go take a look? Are you coming with me or staying here?” Jiang Ming asked.
“Of course we’re going together!” Qingyan’s eyes shone brightly, eager to join the action. “Brother Jiang, your combat power is terrifying. You were able to defeat Bai Ziliang, so most Tenth Realm experts won’t be a match for you. And with your ability to teleport instantly, it’s as if you were bom undefeatable. I’m definitely coming with you.”
“Let’s go, then!”
“Okay!”
The two continued forward, but they hid their auras so as not to leak any information.
In just a short time, they stopped atop a several hundred meters tall ancient tree and looked into the distance.
Boom, boom, boom…
Red light flashed, and dust filled the sky.
Wild winds swept through, and dark clouds rolled in.
The terrifying residual force that reached them was enough to destroy countless trees and shatter mountain peaks, even though they were still hundreds of miles away from the battleground.
“I can sense the aura of a strong Elf, it seems to be Elder Green Cloud, a Tenth Realm existence. Her status in the Elf Clan is even higher than Bai Ziliang’s. Why would she be here?” Qingyan sensed carefully, her brow furrowed as she spoke.
“Green Cloud?” Jiang Ming asked, puzzled. “Does the Elf Clan have many surnames?”
“No!” Qingyan was startled, and then she realized, “Humans have surnames, symbolizing family inheritance. But in the Warzone of Ten Thousand Tribes, only truly powerful beings among the various races have earned surnames. The Elf Clan has no surname, and they often use names containing words like white, cloud, green, blue, and wood. For example, this Green Cloud, green represents their love for and affinity with nature, and cloud represents her elegant and noble character.”
The two talked as they continued forward, and soon caught sight of the fighting powerful beings.
One was an elderly woman with green hair. She was still slim and elegant, but her attacks were extremely ruthless.
The other was someone Jiang Ming was quite familiar with.
“Blood Woman!”
Jiang Ming’s eyes narrowed.
Surprisingly, she hadn’t died and had even managed to escape from the Death Forbidden Zone. She must be incredibly dangerous now.
Though he had killed Bai Ziliang, Jiang Ming was not confident in facing her.
At the same time, he had a strange feeling.
Jiang Ming secretly activated the Power of Cause and Effect in his heart, and the Eye of Heavenly Mandate stirred slightly, causing the True Meaning of Cause and Effect to surge a bit.
He discovered many strands of threads from the Void entwined around his body, unaffected by any spatial barriers.
The closest one was connected to Qingyan and was not too thin.
There was one connected to Blood Woman, which was faint.
Another one extended to the other side of the battlefield and was quite thick
“If it weren’t for this odd feeling that drove me to activate the Power of Cause and Effect, I really wouldn’t have noticed this guy!”
Jiang Ming laughed..
