Chapter 749: The Appearance of Ancient Tribes (Third Update)
Jiang Ren was momentarily stunned.
A bit puzzled, he looked at Fang Yu...
Song Gusheng, seeing him still in a daze, hurriedly said, "Aren't you going to thank Mr. Fang... To join Tiandu Mountain is a fortune that you've cultivated over eight lifetimes! I want to join too, but I haven't had the chance yet."
Hearing this,
Fang Yu became displeased and said, "Song Gusheng, you are doing quite well at Bai Ze. Besides, if you really came to my place, you wouldn't be of any use, would you?"
"This..." Song Gusheng's face turned red, forced to admit that what Fang Yu said was true, after all, his medical skill was far inferior to Fang Yu's.
"By the way, where's your daughter?" Fang Yu suddenly remembered that after Song Gusheng acknowledged his daughter Tuoba Xue'er from their last encounter, he had not seen her since.
Song Gusheng awkwardly said, "Ah, she's still angry. But at least she has accepted me as her father now."
"That's good then..."
As he said this,
Fang Yu's gaze fell on Jiang Ren.
"Jiang Ren, you're not agreeing?"
Jiang Ren was startled and hastily said, "No, no, no… I'd agree in a heartbeat, it's just that it feels a bit unreal... Mr. Fang bears no grudges and is willing to shelter my son and me. From now on, I, Jiang Ren, will follow Mr. Fang's lead, climbing knife mountains or plunging into pots of boiling oil without hesitation."
"It's not that serious. Just thoroughly research the secret realms." Fang Yu said indifferently.
"Mr. Fang rest assured, with so many years of researching secret realms, I am confident that no one can surpass me in this area," Jiang Ren stated.
"Oh? Then can you determine the type of secret realm?" Fang Yu asked.
"I can generally... For ordinary secret realms, you can use sturdy chains to throw animals inside to judge, but for some space-time secret realms, this method is not feasible. Space-time itself is an error in positioning. Steel chains fall in, it might turn into blocks of iron... or even a pile of rust..."
Upon hearing this,
Fang Yu nodded.
When he initially asked Chen Daotian to do this, he also considered this point.
He just wasn't sure about it.
"A time-based secret realm displaces the timelines of two worlds; these two environments, like a chasm in the sky, will misalign anything."
When Jiang Ren talked about secret realms, he was unstoppable, exuding a lot of confidence.
Seeing his demeanor,
Even Song Gusheng was secretly surprised and said, "Jiang Ren, I would never have guessed, you actually know so much!"
Jiang Ren raised his head, looking at Song Gusheng and said,
"These years, you always said I have wasted my medical skill... Indeed, my mind has never been focused on medical skill... Ever since the initial secret realm, I have been searching for secret realms everywhere. Only then have I achieved what I have today!"
"Achievement?" Song Gusheng chuckled, "You take pride in that? I haven't seen you gain any benefits from these secret realms."
"That's because I haven't encountered a decent secret realm yet."
Jiang Ren defiantly said, "I once secretly visited the secret realm near Nine Layers Hall in Jin City of Ze State, unfortunately, I could only glance from a distance before being repelled by a burst of cold Qi. I wondered why, if the secret realm was clearly abundant with spiritual energy, would there be cold Qi?"
Nonsense, with Ice God Xie Daoyun residing there, who dares to approach?
Fang Yu did not explain and looked at him and said, "Tell me, how do you determine a time-based secret realm?"
Jiang Ren explained,
"According to my years of research. Generally, green vortexes signify growth. When spiritual energy is extremely rich, it will cast the nearby plant's color onto it. Such secret realms often grow numerous heavenly treasures, all extremely precious medicinal materials."
"Red indicates heat, the color of burning flames. Such secret realms usually support no vegetation, and if there is any, it's extremely rare, with strong resilience in plants and animals. But once encountered, those are definitely great items."
"The blue represents water secret realms, ones with excessive water are not suitable for humans."
At this point,
Jiang Ren's tone paused, "As for time-based secret realms, it's not judged from the color. Instead, it's from the spatial ripples..."
"Spatial ripples?" Fang Yu couldn't help but express his doubt.
"In the space where we live, the ripples are zero, so it appears colorless and tasteless. If you observe carefully, you will find spatial ripples at the mouth of the vortex. These spatial ripples, similar to wrinkles on an elderly person, a ridge signifies accelerated space, two ridges mean space is accelerated twice. Conversely, a depression is a space slowing down, two depressions mean it's slowing down twice."
Upon hearing this,
Fang Yu stood up abruptly, his face showing delight as he said, "Jiang Ren, can you guarantee your research is correct?"
Jiang Ren immediately patted his chest and said,
"The Secret Realms of those fierce beasts, I can't guarantee... but as for this time-related Secret Realm, I really dare to make such a claim. I have studied many time-related Secret Realms, traveling with my son all over the place. I even made special visits to those who had suddenly gone missing and then returned. The final conclusion I've reached..."
"Good!"
Fang Yu, spirited and full of vigor, said, "From now on, you will work for the Dark God Temple."
"Thank you, Mr. Xie Fang!"
Jiang Ren was also brimming with excitement.
Shortly after.
Fang Yu sent Jiang Ren's information to Chen Daotian.
Chen Daotian was thrilled to hear about such a person. He was just looking for someone to select Secret Realms. Now he had found one.
Additionally, Fang Yu also asked him to look for Twin Lotus in the green Secret Realms.
With Jiang Ren's help, Chen Daotian assured that he would find the Twin Lotus in the shortest possible time.
...
At the same time.
At the base of Kunlun Sect.
A man in a black robe stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up.
His eyes were profound, and his face still unclear.
Suddenly.
He looked up to the sky, spreading his arms, and with a raspy voice that echoed through the whole mountain range, he cried out: "Li Daochang... don't you hurry up and come out to meet me…"
The sound swept past.
Midway up the mountain, the disciples of Kunlun Mountain rushed down.
All their weapons were aimed at the man in the black robe.
"Who dares to act recklessly in the Kunlun Sect!"
The man in the black robe, with blue light emanating from his eyes, shouted: "Seeking death—"
With a wave of his arms.
A fierce gust of wind blew past.
With a howl.
The disciples of the Kunlun Sect, their complexions greatly changed, cried out in unison: "Supreme Heavenly Rank?"
The man in the black robe suddenly flew into the sky.
Waving his arms, he said coldly: "A mere Supreme Heavenly Rank is far from my true strength."
Whoosh!
Shick, shick, shick…
The heads of all the people flew off.
Blood was sprayed wildly.
Shortly after.
The man in the black robe slowly descended and shouted again: "Li Daochang, why don't you hurry up and come out to greet me!?"
After this furious shout.
From the mountaintop, a figure, exerting all his strength, came rushing over with the speed of the wind.
This person was Kunlun Sect's Sect Master, Li Daochang…
Li Daochang's face was full of panic.
"The junior is late! Please forgive me, senior!"
Thump!
He knelt on both knees!
Directly shattering the steps with his kneel!
