Chapter 674: Return to the Mountains and Seas
ignored all of that and hurriedly brought Jiang Yun to a secret room, stepping into a small teleportation array.With the formation's activation, Jiang Yun and Kong Meng found themselves within a smal...Looking at Dugu Wen's face, which was also covered in the mark of the Desolate Master, and feeling the pressure exerted by the surrounding spiritual energy, Jiang Yun became even more certain that his guess about Dugu Wen's identity should be correct.
He is most likely from another Dao realm, but for some reason, he was sealed by the Dao Yuan within the altar.
Now, upon learning that he was to leave the Great Desolate Realm, Dugu Wen's anger flared, finally revealing a sliver of his true nature that he had concealed for so long.
However, Ginger Cloud showed no sign of panic. Instead, she continued, “Senior misunderstood, I have urgent business to attend to and had to leave temporarily, but it won't be long before I return.”
As the head of the Wudao Sect, I couldn't possibly abandon my 300,000 disciples.
This sentence caused Dugu Wen's gloomy face to ease slightly.
He naturally understood the meaning in Ginger Cloud's words. Although Ginger Cloud had left, 300,000 disciples of the Question Dao Sect would still remain in the Desolate Realm.
And these 300,000 disciples would also become a soft underbelly for Jiang Yun.
Dugu Wen did not withdraw his pressure and continued to ask, "What urgent matter do you have that you must leave now"
Ginger had already prepared an excuse, calmly stating: “I need to break through to the Dao Spirit Realm. Once I reach that realm, perhaps I can erase all the imprints on the altar in one go!”
"Shock the Dao Spirit" Du Guwen frowned and said, "Isn't it possible to shock the Dao Spirit in the Wilderness Realm!"
"Dugu senior, you may not know this, but my cultivation method is different from others. This is also the reason why I can be fearless and even erase the mark of the Desolate Master!"
Hearing this, Dugu Wen actually believed a few points of what Jiang Yun said.
Because he had waited here for so many years, Jiang Yun was the only one who was not afraid of the mark left by the Desolate Lord.
Of course, he had thought about the reasons behind it, but he never asked. Now that Jiang Yun brought it up himself, he followed the conversation and said: "What is special about your cultivation method"
"Ghost Qi!" Jiang Yun stretched out his palm, within which a few wisps of Ghost Qi were swaying: "By chance, I devoured the Ghost Qi of a strong warrior from the Netherworld and made it the foundation of my cultivation."
Although everything else in this desolate realm is fine, it lacks spiritual energy. As far as I know, the only place with spiritual energy is a location called Senro Ghost Prison within the Shan Hai Realm.
"Therefore, I have no choice but to return to the Shan Hai Realm and absorb more ghost qi, only then can I break through to the Dao Ling realm!"
Looking at the ghostly aura in Jiang Yun's palm, Dugu Wen's face showed a look of astonishment.
Even with his cultivation and experience, he had never heard of such a thing. As a living being, to be able to cultivate using ghostly energy was unheard of.
However, this made him more inclined to believe what Gingercloud had said.
"How long will it take you to come back"
"Including the time spent on the way there and back, it could take anywhere from ten years to... who knows how long. Senior would definitely know better than me. For something like the Dao Spirit Impact, it takes more than just strength; luck plays a huge part too!"
This is not Ginger Cloud making things up. Impacting the Dao Spirit Realm is indeed crucial for all cultivators.
Some people even need decades just to prepare, and yet there's still a high probability of failure in the end.
Dugu Wen remained silent, only his eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Jiang Yun with an unreadable expression.
While Jiang Yun seemed calm, in reality, the nine powers within him had spread throughout his entire body, ready to strike at any moment.
"Fifty years!"
After a moment's thought, Dugu Wen finally spoke: "I can give you half a lifetime. If within half a lifetime, you cannot return, then I can only choose another person to be the Master of this wasteland!"
Ginger Yun understood. Choosing the wrong master was a pretense; what Du Gu Wen truly meant was that if she didn't appear within fifty years, he would attack the disciples of the Wenda sect.
"Okay, within fifty years, whether I succeed in impacting the Dao Spirit or not, as long as I'm alive, I will definitely come back to the Desolate Realm and become the master of this realm!"
However, before I leave, I would have to trouble the senior to help me unseal the two inner spirits within me. Perhaps I will use them.
Bai Ze and Su Yang were sealed away, and to this day they remain imprisoned. Jiang Yun, in his confrontation with the Patrol Officer, might possibly seek their aid.
……
Under Yan Song's respectful gaze, Jiang Yun finally left the Desolate Realm and headed towards the Shan Hai Realm.
Although Dugu Wen gave him thirty years, Jiang Yun couldn't possibly believe his words.
On the other hand, he didn't know if he could come back alive. So this time, he came only to probe.
Now he was even more certain that Dugu Wen couldn't leave the altar and shrine, and even his strength had been greatly suppressed.
Otherwise, he couldn't have let himself leave so easily!
Therefore, as long as the Lord of Desolation's mark remains on the altar, this Dugu Wen will not be able to cause much of a stir and naturally pose no threat to the Questioning Dao Sect.
More importantly, although Ginger Cloud has now erased the numerous imprints on the altar, through observing the imprints on people like Yan Song, he discovered that the imprints were illusory. What truly functioned was the desolate pattern.
The scar patterns are like seeds; as long as the scar patterns exist, in time they can continue to spread more markings.
Although he had absorbed a streak of desolation within the altar, there were still likely more streaks hidden inside. Those imprints he had erased could be restored. Therefore, it was only then that Jiang Yun truly let go of his worries.
As for the treasure that Fang Mang and Hai Changsheng and others coveted, Jiang Yun did not ask or search for it. But he had a hunch that the treasure was probably also related to Dugu Wen.
And all of this will have to wait until he deals with the threat from the patrolman.
With the thirty thousand disciples of the Wenda sect no longer following him, and the boundary sea having long since returned to its calm state, Jiang Yun had no need to tread the path of no return once more. Directly soaring in mid-air, he exerted his speed to the extreme, flying towards the direction of the Shanhai Realm.
Just as Jiang Yun's figure left the Great Desolation Realm, the figure of Hai Changsheng reappeared in the Sea of Realms beneath him.
Looking at Jiang Yun's receding figure, Hai Changsheng said to himself: "Throughout history, only he has been able to leave this desolate realm. It seems that he should already know some secrets of this desolate realm."
"But, I don't know what he's trying to do again Could it be that there are still things he cares about in the Shan Hai Realm Ten Thousand Mang Mountains The Questioning Dao Sect"
Shaking his head, Hai Changsheng couldn't figure it out either.
"Now, I finally understand why Heaven had to protect him. This kid is too strange. If I want to continue absorbing the Great Desolate Realm, the only way is to start with him!"
After finishing, Hailisheng turned his head to look at the desolate world shrouded in layers of white mist behind him. A cruel smile appeared on his calm face: "When I devour the desolate world as well, this Shanhai Realm will surely be under my sole rule!"
As soon as his words left his lips, Haichangsheng's figure disappeared into the water, restoring peace to this road to nowhere and the Great Wilderness.
……
Although Gingercloud knew that Haichangsheng was afraid of Heavenly Dao and wouldn't dare to attack him again, he didn't dare to be careless and remained constantly vigilant.
Along the way, on his journey back, he also saw some scattered cultivators from the Mountains and Seas realm. They were still carrying hope and heading towards the Desolate Realm.
For them, Jiang Yun could only sigh inwardly. Although he knew what consequences they would face after entering the Great Desolate Realm, he was powerless to stop them.
We can't let them return to the Mountain and Sea Realm, nor can we allow them to remain forever on the path of no return.
Even if I become a slave, at least I can survive!
From the Shan Hai Realm to the Great Desolate Realm, Jiang Yun spent almost eight years. When he returned, he only took half a year!
Seeing the starting point of the Road of No Return hovering above the Sea of Boundaries, Jiang Yun knew that he had finally returned to the Shanhaijing Realm.
