Chapter 661: Desolate World Lord
The two energies were very fast. Jiang Yun sensed their arrival but before he could react, they had already rushed into his body.
"Buzzing!"
As two vibrations were felt inside him, Jiang Yun squinted slightly.
These two energies were actually two Tao Seal imprints.
However, they were not sealing himself, but were sealing the Demon Refining Pen where Bai Ze was, and the Flameless Puppet Lantern!
Jiang Yun's heart skipped a beat and he immediately called out, "Bai Ze, Su Yang!"
"Master!"
Huo Duming, who had already become an item spirit, responded to Jiang Yun, but Bai Ze and Su Yang remained silent.
Jiang Yun suddenly understood, "The seal, it seals both of them!"
"And the only thing they have in common is that they are both strong in the Sky Blessed Realm!"
Just then, the mist around them suddenly intensified and slowly moved aside, revealing a narrow path.
The path was very narrow, only allowing one person to pass through. It seemed endless, winding ahead, with rolling mist on both sides.
Looking at this suddenly appearing path, Jiang Yun realized that the mist was clearly being controlled by someone.
This meant that not only were there living beings in The Great Wilderness Realm, but they were also cultivators!
"Just now, that feeling of someone probing me, specifically targeting the seal of the Sky Blessed Realm..."
Jiang Yun pondered, "It seems that the effect of this mist is actually similar to divine sense, able to understand the cultivation level of those who enter the mist. Once a strong one from the Sky Blessed Realm is found, they will be sealed!"
"In other words, this mist does not allow strong ones from the Sky Blessed Realm to enter The Great Wilderness Realm!"
"If that's the case, then the divine sense of this mist is too strong, even Su Yang and Bai Ze inside the Demon Refining Pen and Flameless Puppet Lantern can sense it!"
"Perhaps, this is why for so many years, even though Hai Changsheng knew about The Great Wilderness Realm, he couldn't enter."
"This Great Wilderness Realm is not simple!"
Jiang Yun had no idea about The Great Wilderness Realm, but with the outer mist, he could guess that there were indeed many secrets hidden inside.
Now that a path has appeared, it means the mist allows Jiang Yun to enter The Great Wilderness Realm.
Although Bai Ze and Su Yang were sealed, they were not in immediate danger. After a moment of thought, Jiang Yun immediately stepped onto the path and walked deeper step by step.
Walking on the path, Jiang Yun remained vigilant but did not encounter any more surprises, yet the road seemed unusually long.
It was not until he walked thousands of feet that a faint light finally shone ahead.
Within this distance, the mist around did not decrease at all, meaning the thickness of the mist was also thousands of feet.
If traps can be set in the mist, then the mist can become the strongest barrier to stop outsiders from entering The Great Wilderness Realm.
As Jiang Yun finally stepped out of the small path, a whole new world suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Above his head was a vast sky, not covered in dark clouds like the Mountain-Sea World, but clear sky for miles.
Above, there was a long-lost sun hanging high, radiating warm sunlight, shining on Jiang Yun, making him feel warm.
Just this sky alone made Jiang Yun feel shocked again.
Although The Great Wilderness Realm sounds like a separate world, it is actually one with the Mountain-Sea World, both under the same sky.
But the Mountain-Sea World has been covered in dark clouds for over a decade, while here the sun is shining brightly.
This means that those who separated the Mountain-Sea Desolate World not only divided Wushan Island in two, but also split the sky in half!
The white mists surrounding them are the true dividing line, inside the white mist is The Great Wilderness Realm, outside the white mist is the Mountain-Sea World!
Jiang Yun just glanced at the sky and then looked ahead.
There was a wall reaching thousands of feet high, stretching endlessly without a visible end, surrounding the entire continent in Jiang Yun's perception.
In front of Jiang Yun was a wide and tall gate at least a hundred feet high.
The gate was closed, and more than ten men dressed in simple coarse clothes stood at the gate.
At that moment, all of these people were staring at Jiang Yun.
Such intense gazes might be unsettling for others, but Jiang Yun was used to it, so despite feeling surprised, he calmly returned the gaze.
Here, divine sense could be used, but Jiang Yun sensed that none of these people in front of him had any trace of spiritual energy within them.
In short, they were not cultivators, just ordinary people.
However, Jiang Yun found it hard to believe!
Can ordinary people control the mist behind them and the seal for the strong in the Sky Blessed Realm?
Moreover, there is plenty of spirit energy and natural essence in The Great Wilderness Realm for cultivation, so how can these people be just ordinary?
At that moment, among the group of men at the city gate, an elder in his forties, with a yellowish complexion, walked out and greeted Jiang Yun with a smile, "Friend from the Mountain-Sea World, welcome to The Great Wilderness Realm!"
Everything Jiang Yun saw in The Great Wilderness Realm now felt strange to him, making him more cautious.
In response to the friendly greeting, Jiang Yun also smiled and replied, "Thank you, friend from The Great Wilderness Realm!"
"Haha!" The middle-aged man laughed out loud, "I heard about the great disaster in the Mountain-Sea World, causing you all to be homeless and seek refuge in our Great Wilderness Realm. We sympathize deeply."
Although the man spoke with sympathy, his tone and words clearly carried a sense of superiority.
Evidently, they seemed to think that their Great Wilderness Realm was superior to the Mountain-Sea World.
Jiang Yun didn't pay much attention to that and focused on the content of what the man said.
Because the other person not only knows everything that happened in Mountain-Sea World very clearly, but also clearly implies that he is not the first outsider to arrive in The Great Wilderness Realm.
Jiang Yun asked directly, "Before me, did anyone else from Mountain-Sea World come here?"
"Yes!" The middle-aged man nodded and said, "And quite a few of them. They have all truly entered The Great Wilderness Realm now, which means they have also escaped the sea of suffering."
"Oh?"
Jiang Yun raised an eyebrow.
It wasn't surprising to him that someone had arrived in The Great Wilderness Realm before him, but if there were guards at The Great Wilderness Realm, wouldn't they be alert to outsiders and not easily allow them to enter?
Jiang Yun's heart stirred, realizing that entering The Great Wilderness Realm was indeed not that simple.
"What request?"
"I don't worship the sky or the earth, only respect the Desolate World Lord!"
"To show respect to the Desolate World Lord, all outsiders who want to enter The Great Wilderness Realm and seek the protection of the Desolate World Lord must accept the Desolate World Lord's mark."
Jiang Yun calmly asked, "What if I refuse?"
The middle-aged man seemed to have anticipated Jiang Yun's question and still smiling, replied, "Many have refused before, and most of them are there now!"
As he finished speaking, the middle-aged man pointed to the nearby city wall, and suddenly heard the sound of wind stirring. On top of the city wall, countless...
Gory human heads!
Chapter 662: The Mark of the Desolate World Lord
Desolate World Lord was a title Jiang Yun had never heard of before.
Since the creatures of The Great Wilderness Realm held such reverence for him, it was obviously the most powerful being within The Great Wilderness Realm.
Just like the Demon Lord in the Ten Thousand Demons Cave, and similar to Hai Changsheng in the Boundary Sea.
As for the Mark of the Desolate World Lord, it's not hard to guess that it must be something like a Demon Seed or a Firestarter.
Once accepted, it means that from then on, one must also honor the Desolate World Lord and be under their control.
Even at the very least, one's cultivation will definitely be greatly suppressed.
Therefore, Jiang Yun absolutely refuses to accept The Mark of the Desolate World Lord, as a cultivator believes that no one would want to become a subordinate to another person.
However, the consequence of refusal is - death!
The bloody heads hanging on the city wall, numbering in the tens of thousands, made Jiang Yun's eyes gleam with a cold light.
These are like Jiang Yun, hailing from the Mountain-Sea World, coming to The Great Wilderness Realm seeking refuge and hope as cultivators!
They have faced countless dangers on their journey and finally arrived at The Great Wilderness Realm, the place of their hope, only to tragically meet their end here!
Looking at the pairs of unblinking eyes above those people's heads, Jiang Yun quietly looked away and gazed at the more than ten cultivators from The Great Wilderness Realm in front of him.
And these more than ten people were also looking at him, each of them with a hint of mockery in their eyes.
Although angry inside, Jiang Yun had a big question in his mind.
These people in front of him were definitely not ordinary people or demons, yet they had no trace of spirit energy on them.
How did they manage to kill so many cultivators from the Mountain-Sea World?
You see, the cultivators from the Mountain-Sea who made it here might not all be super strong, but they were definitely not easy targets.
Not to mention the Grand Medicine Sect and Samsara Sect, which had strong Earth Protection Realm experts among them.
Could it be that they were also no match for these people, and eventually willingly accepted the mark of the Desolate World Lord to enter The Great Wilderness Realm?
"Friend, maybe I didn't explain myself clearly just now."
The middle-aged man still smiling said, "These people don't want to accept The Mark of the Desolate World Lord, but they try to force their way into The Great Wilderness Realm using their own strength, so we had no choice but to kill them."
"Actually, we are very reasonable. The Great Wilderness Realm is open for everyone to come and go freely. If you don't want to accept The Mark of the Desolate World Lord, you can leave anytime and return to your Mountain-Sea World, we won't stop you."
Leave!
Although they were allowed to leave freely, at the end of the No-Returning Road, Jiang Yun didn't see any Mountain-Sea cultivators.
Jiang Yun's heart suddenly stirred, he turned back and looked at the thick white mist behind him.
Within this mist that neither divine sense nor sight could penetrate, are there still many Mountain-Sea World cultivators hidden?
Jiang Yun looked at the middle-aged man in front of him again and said, "I won't accept the Desolate World Lord's mark, but in this Great Wilderness Realm, me and my disciples must enter!"
Jiang Yun's response made the middle-aged man's smile unchanged as he said, "It seems like you are very confident, in that case, no need for more words. If you can defeat us, you can freely enter The Great Wilderness Realm!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the tightly closed gates of the hundred-foot city opened with a bang, and more than ten people stepped forward, standing in front of Jiang Yun.
Through the city gate, you can clearly see a very huge city inside.
Various old buildings exuding ancient vibes stood tall, with many people walking around.
If it weren't for the thousands of heads hanging on the city wall, the city would have appeared peaceful and prosperous.
"Then I'll see your strength!"
A cold light flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes, and without hesitation, he threw a punch at the middle-aged man in front of him.
Upon seeing those heads, hostility already brewed in Jiang Yun's heart.
Even though this was their territory, they shouldn't have casually killed a cultivator from Mountain-Sea World.
As a member of the Mountain-Sea cultivators, Jiang Yun felt obligated to seek justice for the fallen cultivators and secure an opportunity for the 300,000 disciples of Seeking-Tao Sect to enter The Great Wilderness Realm.
Faced with Jiang Yun's earth-shattering punch, the middle-aged man remained calm, unmoving, and surprisingly did not dodge or evade.
And the more than ten people behind him all had cold smiles on their faces, watching without helping.
"Bang!"
Jiang Yun's punch hit the opponent's chest heavily, making a dull sound. At that moment, a beam of light suddenly shot out from Jiang Yun's eyes.
Although his punch did not use full strength or spirit qi, it was just the power of his physical body. Even a master in the Tao Spiritual Realm would be inevitably injured by this punch.
However, the middle-aged man's body did not move at all. When Jiang Yun's fist hit him, a strange rune appeared on his face in layers.
It looked like the veins on tree leaves.
Although these runes disappeared in an instant, hiding back into his body, Jiang Yun was sure that it was because of these runes that easily neutralized all the power contained in his punch.
He vaguely thought of something and raised his hand again.
This time, instead of physical strength, a ball of flame flew out of his hand, transforming into a Fire Crow and flying straight towards the middle-aged man.
