The round-faced young man’s eyes lit up when he saw Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong, and he smiled, "Ye Shitian, Golden Tiger?"
Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong nodded, "That’s right."
The round-faced young man stood up, stared at Ye Chen for a mont, then said with so amusent, "My na is Zhu Yun, take this."
With that, he flicked his hand and tossed two tokens towards Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong.
Zhu Yun continued, "Engrave your Divine Soul Seal onto them. In the future, you’ll need these tokens to enter and exit the Dark Domain. Rember, if you leave, you must never reveal the existence of the Dark Domain, nor transfer this token to anyone else. Do not even let others know that you possess this token!
Otherwise, the token will automatically beco invalid, and you’ll never be able to set foot in the Dark Domain again. You may even be hunted by the entire Dark Domain!"
Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong nodded, complying with the instructions.
Seeing this, Zhu Yun threw a jade scroll to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen caught the jade scroll and asked, confused, "What’s this?"
Zhu Yun laughed, "Young Master Ye, I’ve heard of your performance at the bridge, heh heh, I’m quite impressed. Maybe in the future, Young Master Ye will make a na for himself in my Dark Domain.
This place is called Deceit City. The jade scroll records information about the forces and organizations within the Dark Domain and Deceit City, which I’ve collected over many years. This stuff is quite useful in the Dark Domain.
You need not doubt it. Consider it a small investnt from . If soday Young Master Ye achieves sothing in the Dark Domain, just rember this."
Ye Chen’s eyes flashed. This was indeed sothing he desperately needed. Although he could acquire this information on his own given ti, ti was precisely what he was lacking.
Zhu Yun had indeed alleviated a lot of troubles for him!
Ye Chen nodded, "Thank you, Brother Zhu, I’ll definitely rember this."
Zhu Yun smiled, "The scroll also includes information about inns. In Deceit City, there are quite a few shady inns, so choose carefully."
Ye Chen swept his Divine Soul over the jade scroll, his eyes flickering. He imdiately headed towards an inn called the Black Stone Inn.
Before entering the Dark Domain, Ye Chen had killed two people from the Dark Domain. Although they didn’t have many Dark Crystals, there were enough for Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong to live in the Dark Domain for one or two years.
According to the information Zhu Yun provided, the Black Stone Inn was considered a relatively honest establishnt. However, upon checking in, the receptionist, seeing they were newcors, tried to overcharge them!
But the jade scroll clearly recorded the normal price for staying at the Black Stone Inn. Naturally, Ye Chen wouldn’t let them succeed.
Still, both couldn’t help but marvel at how one could never let their guard down in the Dark Domain, where soone could try to cheat you at any mont!
Inside the room, Ye Chen did nothing else but placed the jade scroll Zhu Yun had given him on the table and went through its information ticulously.
After half an incense stick’s ti, Ye Chen took a deep breath and opened his eyes again.
Xu Shenglong asked, "Brother Ye, what should we do next? Is there any information to enhance our power in the jade scroll?"
Ye Chen nodded, "Yes! The most significant power in Deceit City is called Cang Gang. It controls a majority of the city’s industries. In half a month, they will hold a highly exclusive auction, inviting only so extraordinary figures from Deceit City.
We need to find a way into that auction, where we might acquire sothing useful!"
Xu Shenglong said, "So should we try to contact Cang Gang now?"
"No!" Ye Chen shook his head, his eyes glinting, "Before that, we have sothing important to handle!"
Xu Shenglong was taken aback, "What is it?"
Ye Chen said, "Do you rember the middle-aged man we encountered at the bridge who could see through my Martial Arts Cultivation Realm? The thod he used is what we must first learn!
In the Dark Domain, although it’s not possible to determine others’ powers with certainty, we need to have a general understanding! Otherwise, with our strength, one misstep and we might face infinite doom!"
Deceit City is just a small city within the Dark Domain, yet it has late-stage Sky Repairing existences!
If we provoke such fierce people, our end won’t be good!
Ye Chen continued, "This thod of judging others’ strength without relying on aura has three forms. The first is the Tongyuan Technique, which uses fluctuations of spiritual energy to resonate weakly with others, allowing you to gauge their Martial Arts Cultivation Realm. The Bridge Guardian likely used this thod.
Second is the Heavenly Observation Technique, which requires honing spiritual sense to observe the impacts of others’ actions on the world’s laws. Powerful martial artists can cause changes in the laws just by standing there, and the Heavenly Observation Technique uses this to judge their power.
Third is the Fate Calling Technique. This thod pushes one’s intuition to the maximum. All life has an instinct to seek fortune and avoid harm. The more potent the presence, the greater the danger it poses. The Fate Calling Technique uses one’s own life instinct as a asure to gauge another’s strength!
These three secret thods are known as the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques.
Why are they called the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques?
Annihilation Spirit Stones are like a layer of clouds obscuring martial artists, and these techniques are the way to clear the clouds to reveal the truth!
Xu Shenglong said, "Brother Ye, which of the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques should we choose?"
Ye Chen said, "These secret thods are easy to learn but difficult to master. Beginners have less than a ten percent success rate. Each one requires cultivators with a specific type of talent to practice effectively. Generally, just achieving a thirty percent success rate would require hundreds of years of dedication to one thod!"
Xu Shenglong was shocked. They didn’t even have a few years!
However, Ye Chen smiled, "Of course, for soone with exceptional talent in certain aspects, the ti to practice the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques can be greatly reduced.
The Tongyuan Technique requires a martial artist’s strong control over spiritual energy; the stronger the control, the better the results!
The Heavenly Observation Technique needs strong divine souls and sensitive spiritual sense, making it ideal for soul cultivators skilled in Soul Dao!
The Fate Calling Technique values a martial artist’s instincts, akin to a beast’s intuition. If you excel in battle instincts, practicing the Fate Calling Technique can yield twice the results with half the effort!"
Xu Shenglong’s eyes lit up, "Then it seems the Fate Calling Technique suits best! Which will Brother Ye practice?"
