Chapter 427: Ancient Roots

Tao World, Desolate World, Dao God Temple, Realm Master…

What Bai Ze said opened a new window for Jiang Yun, showing him a broader world.

It made him realize how small he and the Seeking-Tao Sect were, even the entire Mountain-Sea World.

Who could imagine that a vast world with billions of beings was just considered an inferior world by true strong ones?

Despite feeling small, Jiang Yun’s stubborn and resilient character made his heart more open.

Or rather, more ambitious!

Bai Ze and Jiang Yun didn’t know the benefits of having a Tao World.

However, Jiang Yun speculated that having his own Tao World might allow his loved ones to enter it.

Especially with the impending disaster coming to the Mountain-Sea World, focusing on helping the Ancient Grand Desolate World birth its Dao seemed more worthwhile than exploring other unknown realms.

Once successful, he would be able to save all his loved ones.

It sounds like Jiang Yun’s goal is really far-fetched.

If others knew about it, they would surely laugh at him for being overconfident and aiming too high.

But in Jiang Yun’s own eyes, there was still hope.

It’s just like his life story.

He, who should have died a long time ago, became a cultivator capable of defeating the Sky Reaching Realm in just twenty short years.

Hope brings motivation;

Motivation turns hope into reality!

Moreover, Jiang Yun knew that time inside Mirage passed differently from the Mountain-Sea World before he entered it.

It might be faster than Mountain-Sea World, but it could also be slower than Mountain-Sea World.

If it’s fast, then everything is just talk;

But if it’s slow, then spending a hundred years here might only be ten years in Mountain-Sea World.

This gives a bit more hope.

The most important thing is to help the Ancient Grand Desolate World come to life, Jiang Yun is not clueless at all.

Because he thought of actions that Mirage would approve of, and thought of the strangest thing in this world – no monsters!

If he can bring monsters to this world, then, is it possible to bring it to life?

Bringing monsters to life is extremely difficult for other cultivators, but for Jiang Yun, it’s much easier.

Because he is a Demon Refiner!

In this Ancient Grand Desolate World, there is the first and only Demon Refiner ever known.

These factors combined made Jiang Yun feel like his ideas were worth a try!

Jiang Yun took a deep breath, feeling unexpectedly relaxed.

Ever since he learned about the upcoming calamity in the Mountain-Sea World, his heart had been heavy.

But now, even though he couldn’t stop the disaster in the Mountain-Sea World, at least he found a turning point and a direction to move forward, no longer lost.

"First merge the spirit qi completely, then start helping Xiao Village, and of course, help myself too by taming the beasts!"

When leaving the previous Shadow Spirit World, Su Yang tried to please Jiang Yun by giving him a gift – all the remaining spirit qi from that world.

Jiang Yun was in a hurry to leave at that time, so even though he absorbed it all into the Blessed Land and his meridians, he hadn’t had time to fully digest and merge it.

It must be said that this gift was significant. Jiang Yun estimated it could allow him to at least rebuild one, or even the last two, Blessed Land!

However, as Jiang Yun started to truly merge, he realized that it would take at least a year or more to completely merge all this spirit energy and condense it into a Blessed Land.

Although this time was not long, since he had just arrived at Xiao Village and became their worshipper, he couldn’t just start long-term closed-door cultivation without doing anything.

Therefore, he had to temporarily give up this plan and prepare to heal his injuries first!

After all, only the strong can be respected.

With his own insufficient strength, any ideas would just be empty talk.

However, before healing his injuries, Jiang Yun suddenly thought of a question, "Bai Ze, ancient demon cultivator, what does that mean?"

According to Bai Ze, the master of the Mu village whom he killed was considered an ancient demon cultivator.

Although Jiang Yun was not afraid, he had to be cautious that his companions might come looking for revenge. Therefore, it was always advantageous to know a bit more about the enemy.

Bai Ze explained, "The demon cultivators of today are mostly from the demon clan, or a mix of demon clan and demon race, offspring born after the union of humans with demons, who all have a bit of demon clan blood in them."

"The ancient demon cultivator might be just a human!"

"This means they could possibly transform from human to demon, and that kind of demon could be even more powerful and terrifying than natural demon clans."

"Because undergoing the transformation to become a demon requires enduring a lot of suffering and hardship."

"Oh, I almost forgot – since this world is the Ancient Grand Desolate World, everything about cultivation here is very ancient!"

"Even though ancient things may seem outdated, don’t forget that all our cultivation practices come from ancient times!"

"Ancient is the root!"

Although Bai Ze usually exaggerates when speaking, his words made Jiang Yun suddenly show respect and nod seriously, saying, "I have learned!"

Killing Master Liu was a joint effort by Jiang Yun and Cold Dark-winged Bat. However, after learning that this world has no sects, only clans, Jiang Yun started to underestimate the strength of cultivators in this world a bit.

Now, Bai Ze’s words have sounded the alarm for him!

Jiang Yun stopped asking and closed his eyes.

Just one day later, Jiang Yun and the injuries of three Taoists had all healed, restoring his strength to its peak.

Not wanting to waste time, Jiang Yun stood up, opened the door, and walked out directly.

A young man standing outside hurriedly bowed and greeted, "Senior Jiang, do you have any orders?"

Being called a senior, Jiang Yun was not used to it, but he knew he couldn’t make the other person change their way of addressing him. He could only smile bitterly and say, "Take me to see the beasts you raise."

Jiang Yun’s request was very reasonable.

After all, Xiao Yun invited him as an offering mainly because of the four demon beasts on him, but the young man showed a hint of hesitation and said, "I will go get the village chief!"

This made Jiang Yun frown and say, "Aren’t your beasts in the back mountain? You don’t need to trouble the village chief. If you have something to do, don’t mind me. I’ll go see them myself!"

Jiang Yun’s small house was right next to the back mountain, just a few steps away, so after he finished speaking, he walked out.

The young man hesitated as he watched Jiang Yun walk away. He wanted to follow but hesitated, finally stomping his foot in frustration before running off to find the village chief.

Jiang Yun was puzzled by the young man’s actions but chose to ignore them.

After a moment, he entered the back mountain. As his eyes adjusted to the brightness, a foul smell drifted into his nostrils on the breeze.

Jiang Yun had already used his divine sense to observe before, but now he wanted to study the types and strengths of these beasts to figure out the best way to tame them.

Even though Jiang Yun had never formally trained in beast taming, he had a knack for it.

Just as he started to examine the beasts, a blunt voice echoed in the distance.

"I thought a great master had arrived, but it’s just a kid who hasn’t even grown a full beard. Get out of here and stop bothering us!"
