I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World Chapter 451 - 410: Sowing Causes, Reaping Results (Revised)
Jiang Yuebai ventured all the way inside from the outside, finding only a single straight path. Now wanting to retrace her steps, she couldn’t find the way she had entered.
She felt around the walls, realizing that she and Xie Jingshan were trapped in a space with no entry or exit.
"Could these rfolk be adept in space law?"
Jiang Yuebai muttered, taking out the item Shen Jinghao had given her.
"By the way, Jiang Yuebai, there’s sothing I think I should tell you," Xie Jingshan said, suppressing his feelings of guilt as he approached.
"Speak."
Xie Jingshan furrowed his brows. "The day I first arrived, I seed to have seen... Tao Fengnian!"
Jiang Yuebai’s hand shook abruptly, and the seal in her hand fell to the ground, its heavy sound echoing in the darkness.
"Impossible!"
"My first reaction was also that it was impossible. At the ti, I was being escorted by rfolk, about ten zhang away from the fishbone boat heading to reincarnation. Although the old man on the boat had his back to , I felt at first glance he was Elder Tao. And before I was pushed into the sea, he glanced back at ."
Jiang Yuebai grabbed Xie Jingshan, her pupils trembling uncontrollably. "Did you really see clearly?"
Xie Jingshan, with a solemn and serious look, nodded.
Jiang Yuebai’s mind buzzed. "How could this be? Could it be an extrely similar soul?"
Xie Jingshan shook his head. "No, I heard from the rfolk that when soone dies, they maintain the appearance they had at death when they arrive here."
Tears welled in Jiang Yuebai’s eyes. "Could it be that my grandfather wasn’t completely burned by the Heart-Burning Gu? Was soone able to save him? But if that were the case, why did it take over thirty years for him to go to reincarnation? And why were you the one to see him?"
With her joy ca a faint sense of conspiracy.
She carefully recalled the situation that day. Her grandfather had gone back into the house alone; she lay in the courtyard alone and never saw her grandfather’s divine soul being burned by the Heart-Burning Gu.
Ultimately, it was the people from the Law Enforcent Hall who opened the door and found her grandfather sitting neatly on the bed, and they were the ones who said he was already soul-scattered.
Perhaps, when her grandfather was in the house, sothing had occurred?
Xie Jingshan comforted, "Actually, this is a good thing. If Elder Tao truly reincarnated, you would have a chance to reconnect."
Jiang Yuebai took a deep breath to calm herself. Xie Jingshan was right. No matter what, having a chance for her grandfather to live was the greatest fortune. At this mont, she felt the deepest part of her heart suddenly clear, like clouds parting.
"Let’s discuss this further after we get out. Look for a way out first."
Xie Jingshan nodded and began feeling along the walls.
Jiang Yuebai picked up the seal from the ground, squeezing her trembling hand tightly.
The material of the seal was similar to the Wangshu Wooden Token given by her master. It seed to be a type of Bodhi Wood, with an extrely simple design, no patterns, looking worn with age, and edges severely frayed.
She exhaled strongly and pressed it into the palm of her hand, slowly reading the words in the darkness.
"Lin Family... Jingyue? Is this Lin Jingyue’s private seal?"
Previously, Shen Jinghao said it was bestowed by the Emperor, implying this seal had been kept by the Yun Country Emperor. Could it, like Lin Jingyue, be offered incense fire worship by Yun Country?
Jiang Yuebai hurriedly attempted to inject her Divine Thought into the seal, and the rit Threads brought about by Shen Jinghao reappeared.
As the threads entered the seal, Jiang Yuebai imdiately felt a warm wintry flow filling the inside of the seal, resembling the Vast Righteous Qi of Confucian Dao, yet more serene, leaving Jiang Yuebai’s soul feeling warmth and tranquility from within.
It was the Incense Fire Qi, a very special force between heaven and earth, capable of altering fate and resisting calamity.
It could now be used by her to perform little demon techniques!
The incense fire power within the small seal was very limited; she had to use it cautiously to ensure it would help them both escape.
Perhaps this was karma. Years ago, she defied heavenly wrath to help Shen Jinghao, altering her fate, leading to the gift of this seal today.
Her connection with the Wuwei Mountain Man also seed increasingly unbreakable.
"Xie Jingshan, have you found a way out?"
Jiang Yuebai tightly clutched the seal and approached Xie Jingshan asking.
Xie Jingshan shook his head. "My grandfather told before that rfolk Country exists in a different space. They are inherently skilled at constructing various spaces, entry without exit. That’s why no one in the Earth Spiritual Realm can find rfolk Country unless they possess the Space Power of a Great Power, who might be able to dismantle the complex space they created."
Jiang Yuebai raised her hand to press against the cold black stone wall, sensing slowly by drawing a bit of incense fire power from the seal.
She had researched the Space Great Forbidden Technique for years; if she used the Great Forbidden Technique to open a door, expending most of the incense fire power within the seal, leaving this Black Tower would be no problem.
But rely leaving the Black Tower was not enough; returning from rfolk Country to the normal world was crucial.
Although her master ntioned the Supre Elder would find a way to pull them out, what if the Supre Elder could not sense this unique Black Tower?
Ultimately, they should at least leave the Black Tower first.
Jiang Yuebai shared her thoughts with Xie Jingshan, who said, "Actually, there is a Small Boundary River leading outside rfolk Country, where so young rfolk, curious about the outside world, sneak out to play. It’s in the trench thirty li west of rfolk Country."
"How do you know?" Approaching the Boundary River, the Supre Elder would have a higher success rate to pull them out, right?
"I..." Xie Jingshan hesitated for a mont before honestly telling Jiang Yuebai, "Did my mother ever tell you, when I was young, I t a blind old mortal? He left just as you arrived. He was the one who told ."
Gazing at Xie Jingshan, Jiang Yuebai felt increasingly muddled by the escalating complexity; her mind spun evermore.
"Besides the way out, did he tell you anything else?"
Xie Jingshan’s mouth opened but no words ca out, as if uncertain where to begin.
"Forget it. Let’s talk this over once we’re out, and explain everything with the Supre Elder."
Jiang Yuebai held the seal, felt along the wall once more, eventually identifying a spot where Space Power was weaker, triggering the incense fire power within the seal to activate the Space Great Forbidden Technique, forcibly creating a door in the wall.
"Quick, go through!"
Xie Jingshan hurriedly rushed through the narrow door, followed closely by Jiang Yuebai, whose hair tips were abruptly cut off by the closing space.
The two of them fell seated at the wall base outside the Black Tower, with no rfolk guards present, since the surrounding water capable of dissolving souls was unnecessary for defense.
"West..."
Standing, Jiang Yuebai determined the direction, as her white hair rapidly grew, entwining one of Xie Jingshan’s arms, transforming them into rfolk under disguised demon art effects.
Xie Jingshan lowered his head, shocked seeing his chest covered with shell, "How did you turn into a female?!"
"Shut up!" Jiang Yuebai retorted irritably. "This seal has limited incense fire power, so I can’t disguise that ticulously. Just endure and stay close to ; don’t disconnect my hair."
Blushing intensely, Xie Jingshan only hoped no one would see him like this upon escape.
"I’ll create a protective layer around us, but the seal’s power is limited, so there’s no ti to waste. Once ready, swim gracefully to avoid rfolk suspicion."
Xie Jingshan: ......
He suspected Jiang Yuebai did it deliberately, but he had no evidence!
