Compared to other regions, the Wilderness Region is undoubtedly a barren land, yet the Great Wilderness is also known as a paradise for loose cultivators, filled with countless beasts!
With the most numerous and diverse fierce beasts among the nine regions, it is estimated by ancient countries that the entrenched Demon Kings in the depths of the Great Wilderness are likely the most in the nine regions.
Many loose cultivators often hunt demon beasts for their materials to exchange for Spirit Stones, renting caves above Spirit Veins in the Immortal City to cultivate, living a life on the edge of sword and blade.
Above the clouds of the Great Wilderness, a figure sits cross-legged atop a flying giant pine cone, gazing at the loose cultivators fighting beasts below, sighing deeply.
"Soon we’ll be entering the Wilderness Region; it’s faster than I imagined."
"After the Beast Taming Sect was sealed, I wonder if the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect will have experiences similar to these loose cultivators."
"Ridiculous, I traveled with full speed, naturally it’s fast. You snatched so many Spirit Stones yet hesitate to use the teleportation array." A dissatisfied voice emanates from the pine cone.
"Having time to care about the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect, wouldn’t it be better to care about the old pine tree?"
"All the snatched Spirit Stones combined aren’t enough to activate a one-way teleportation array even once; the disciple has to pay even more out of pocket. Besides, those Spirit Stones were snatched by the pine needle squirrels, and Elder, you know its nature. Using the Spirit Stones for this would be its death!" Lin Jing spoke: "So, I could only request Elder to bring us back."
"Rest assured, the promised things won’t be lacking." ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ noᴠelfire.net
"Heh." The Divine Pine sneers: "You think I don’t know, you’re using me to help you claim the treasure?"
"Your intention is not merely to pay a visit to the Beast Taming Sect’s old friends... you’re clearly eyeing the treasure of the Undying Demon!"
Years ago, Lin Jing entered the Demon-Sealing Tower which sealed the Undying Profound Serpent and learned the location of its hidden treasure from its mouth.
This treasure location was later reported to the Beast Taming Sect.
Lin Jing did not know whether the experts of the Beast Taming Sect explored that place after the sect was sealed.
He guessed that they probably did.
After all, without the sect’s Spirit Vein, both elders’ and disciples’ cultivation would become a major issue.
At this time, if some treasures could be unearthed from the treasure vault of the Undying Profound Serpent, it certainly would be relieving an urgent problem.
As the discoverer of the intelligence, Lin Jing was constantly concerned about this so-called treasure.
But he was just a small Qi Cultivation Cultivator. Even if the sect’s Demon King Ancestors obtained the treasure, he feared he might not get the core treasures, perhaps just receive a reward of a magical artifact at most.
However, if Elder Mo Song were to claim it, then it wouldn’t be a problem.
In terms of strength, Elder Mo Song was at Divinity Transformation; whatever it wants, a group of Nascent Soul demons wouldn’t dare to refuse.
In terms of reason, Lin Jing brought out the intelligence, Elder Mo Song, as the Guardian, seeking a portion for Lin Jing is also reasonable.
In the eyes of the Divine Pine, Lin Jing wasn’t kindly giving it a portion of the Undying Profound Serpent’s treasure as travel fees, but was clearly planning to have it help claim resources!
"How could that be." Lin Jing wore an expression of righteousness.
"Speaking of, Elder, how many days have we been traveling?"
"Is it the New Year? It should be these few days."
"What, how would I remember!"
"January 1st is the day when the new issue of the Celestial Secret Tower’s list of outstanding cultivators is released."
"Let’s first go to the nearby Immortal City, and buy a copy." Lin Jing anticipated that his hidden talents would be promoted again.
He hoped to seize this opportunity to see if he could eat the Cloud Sea Mosquito Beast and hidden talents to enhance the dragon carp to the tenth level of Qi Cultivation!
The Divine Pine snorted coldly: "You don’t save money on this."
"Indeed, since the Beast Taming Sect would reserve every issue of the World News, Hundred Flower Valley would surely reserve too. When we reach Hundred Flower Valley, let’s just read it there." Lin Jing said.
The Divine Pine: "..."
The World News, a newspaper used by the Celestial Secret Tower to publish worldly affairs, every new issue of the list of outstanding cultivators takes up a certain space in the newspaper.
Though the World News reports on current political affairs which generally do not relate much to Foundation Establishment Golden Core cultivators, it is, after all, the only way for cultivators in each region to learn about the vast cultivation realm, hence many sects have subscriptions.
Though the World News is not expensive, it still requires some Spirit Stones, and saving some is also desirable.
Hundred Flower Valley.
A second-tier sect in the Great Wilderness, not as deep-rooted as the former Beast Taming Sect, yet it has a person and a butterfly, two Nascent Souls guarding.
Hundred Flower Valley, similar to the Beast Taming Sect, has exclusive Butterfly Control Techniques and has had friendly ties with the Beast Taming Sect for generations. Because the lifespan of butterflies is short, Hundred Flower Valley does not have numerous long-lived Demon Kings as sect foundation like the Beast Taming Sect.
However, it seems not to be entirely a bad thing from now.
Flying out of the Great Wilderness, a magical rainbow continues towards Hundred Flower Valley, and after flying for a while, Lin Jing and his party quickly see a refreshing and pleasant mountain range standing on the distant horizon.
Even before fully approaching the mountain gate of Hundred Flower Valley, as they fly, the air grows increasingly fresh.
Looking down just anywhere, wildflowers abound, from tiny wildflowers to expansive flower seas, colorful and diverse in form.
Landing before the mountain gate of Hundred Flower Valley, two disciples clad in long skirts appeared immediately and blocked Lin Jing’s path.
The two disciples of Hundred Flower Valley were both dressed in light and ethereal gauze skirts, embroidered with lifelike butterfly patterns over the gauze, coupled with their beautiful appearances, adding a dash of color to the valley.
They each held a long sword, with one blue and one yellow butterfly resting on their respective swords, exuding remarkable Spiritual Power.
Seeing the disciples of Hundred Flower Valley, Lin Jing couldn’t help but sigh; with disciples so beautiful, the Sect Leader must be even more so. No wonder the second, third, and fourth generation Beast Taming Sect Leaders had partners who were Valley Masters of Hundred Flower Valley.
It’s just a pity that the current Valley Master of Hundred Flower Valley, for unknown reasons, didn’t become a partner of the fifth generation Sect Leader, instead allowing a crane to take the position... wouldn’t other sects in the Ancient Country gossip about it?
"Greetings, Senior Sisters. I am Lin Jing, Inner Sect Disciple of the Beast Taming Sect. After the sect was sealed, I traveled afar to study, and now returning to the Wilderness Region, I wish to return to the sect."
After Lin Jing spoke, the two female disciples exchanged glances.
A female disciple with a blue spirit butterfly resting on her sword stepped forward: "Do you have a token, I will report this."
After tossing out the Beast Taming Sect disciple token, and saying thanks, Lin Jing watched as the blue butterfly disciple immediately took the token and entered the mountain gate, while the yellow butterfly disciple curiously examined Lin Jing.
"You must have been quite significant in the Beast Taming Sect before, yet I haven’t heard of you."
"Why does Senior Sister say that?" Lin Jing asked.
"You don’t carry your pet beast with you, indicating you have the Beast Taming Space treasure; this is the privilege of true disciples of the Beast Taming Sect. Yet you are only at Qi Cultivation level, theoretically not a true disciple, nor have I heard of any Beast Taming Sect Elder accepting a disciple named Lin Jing."
Lin Jing smiled slightly; with the Divine Pine as his guardian, no elder dared to accept him.
"I do have a pet beast." Lin Jing said.
As he spoke, a black spot fell from the sky, and as it approached slowly, the female disciple noticed it was a strange red dragon carp.
"Roar!!" The dragon carp landed beside Lin Jing, relying on its powerful Mana to float in the air, its gaze proud.
Almost causing Lin Jing to leave it behind with the Divine Pine... close call...
