Dragon's Origin

Chapter 77: Entering the City (Part 2)

The figure walking over from the Thousand Absolutes Land was, of course, Wang Sheng. It had been three months since he killed the Lone Wolf Yuan Soul and successfully split his own.

Two months prior, Wang Sheng's one thousand and twenty-four small Chiwen Yuan Souls finally devoured the medium-sized giant rock like piranhas.

The disappearance of the giant rock triggered another infusion of天地 spiritual Qi, and Wang Sheng was thoroughly nourished by it once again. Not only were his old ailments completely gone, but his eyesight was also strengthened again, and his ability to recognize colors exceeded that of a computer program.

Of course, the most important improvements were to his physical fitness and Yuan Soul space. Under the nourishment of the powerful spiritual Qi, Wang Sheng's physical indicators improved significantly, and the upper limit of his body's ability to accommodate spiritual Qi was greatly increased, at least doubled.

If the Lone Wolf's Yuan Qi had entered the Yuan Soul space again after the upgrade, Wang Sheng's Chiwen Yuan Soul wouldn't have needed to split into eight; splitting into four at most would have been enough to withstand it, and each Chiwen Yuan Soul could have doubled in size.

According to Wang Sheng's estimation, his Chiwen Yuan Soul's devouring of that medium-sized giant rock should have reached the late stage of the first realm. Without devouring the largest giant rock, just devouring half of it would allow Wang Sheng to reach the peak of the first realm. Devouring the largest giant rock would undoubtedly trigger the Taotie transformation and enter the second realm.

However, the biggest beneficiary of Wang Sheng's Yuan Soul breakthrough was not Wang Sheng himself, but the battle consciousness little man.

The massive spiritual power washed over Wang Sheng's body, nourishing it, but in the end, 90% of it was absorbed by the battle consciousness little man.

The battle consciousness little man split into eight, each the same size as before. The eight battle consciousness little men referred to Wang Sheng's method of splitting his Yuan Soul. They could split and merge, and they didn't have Wang Sheng's Yuan Soul's upper limit for accommodating spiritual Qi. They could separate or merge as they wished.

Now, in Wang Sheng's Yuan Soul space, in addition to more than a thousand small Chiwens, there were also eight battle consciousness little men. One was responsible for guarding the Thousand Absolutes Land, and the remaining seven were all diligently studying a fighting style or a cultivation method. Among them, Tang Ao's cultivation of the Arrogant Heaven Art was included.

After completing the devouring, Wang Sheng once again embarked on the journey through the Thousand Absolutes Land. With the battle consciousness little man's warning and Wang Sheng's own survival skills, Wang Sheng could be said to have bypassed the most dangerous core area of the Thousand Absolutes Land with only a few scares. He detoured hundreds of miles and forcibly crossed the Thousand Absolutes Land, arriving at Worry-Free City.

The skeleton in the tree hole had been buried by Wang Sheng. The animal skin he obtained from the tree hole was a map of the Thousand Absolutes Land drawn by the skeleton before his death.

The map Wang Sheng bought from Baoqing Yu Tang in Shanglin City was useless in the Thousand Absolutes Land. It was the map left by the skeleton brother that allowed Wang Sheng to know the specific location. Although it wasn't very accurate, the general direction was correct, which led to the scene where Wang Sheng saw the people on the city wall on alert and shouted to ask if it was Worry-Free City.

"This is Worry-Free City!" A smart person immediately answered Wang Sheng, and then immediately asked back, "Are you Wang Sheng?"

"I am Wang Sheng!" Wang Sheng didn't think that he could remain anonymous after being chased by fifth realm experts from various families, especially after he crossed the Thousand Absolutes Land and those fifth realm experts all disappeared. So, he generously admitted his identity.

"Can one rest easy after entering Worry-Free City?" Although he knew what Worry-Free City was, Wang Sheng still shouted at the people on the city wall.

"Yes!" The experts on the city wall were all from Worry-Free City. To put it bluntly, almost everyone without a special identity had been chased into Worry-Free City to seek refuge. Wang Sheng's question resonated with them, and someone immediately gave a positive answer.

Which of those chased into Worry-Free City didn't have a story? At least 30% of them were chased because they possessed valuable treasures. How similar was that to Wang Sheng's reason for coming to Worry-Free City?

The only difference was that their troubles might not have been as big as Wang Sheng's. They weren't being chased by almost all the major families and clans, didn't involve fifth realm experts, and didn't have such an explosive entry and exit from the Thousand Absolutes Land, but the nature of it was actually the same.

With so many experts, there was always someone in charge. The city lord might have received the news but didn't show up, only sending a steward. However, the city lord's steward was enough to command all the experts here.

Under the order of the city lord's steward, the thirteen closed city gates were opened one by one. Under the gaze of thousands of experts, Wang Sheng walked into Worry-Free City from the city gate closest to the Thousand Absolutes Land.

From the moment Wang Sheng stepped into Worry-Free City, it meant that the rules of Worry-Free City took effect on Wang Sheng. From then on, as long as he was in Worry-Free City, neither the outside aristocratic families nor the imperial court could attack Wang Sheng or hold him accountable. Even the greatest hatred had to be put down in Worry-Free City.

"Disperse! Disperse!" The city lord's steward personally lifted the alert and waved his hand at the experts on the city wall, telling them to disperse and go about their business.

No one came to talk to Wang Sheng, and no one stayed for a moment longer. Everyone acted as if nothing had happened, putting away their weapons and slowly returning home or going about their business.

It seemed like a trivial matter, but Wang Sheng himself felt it most clearly. He knew that at least hundreds of people had their eyes on him, and the rest were just not looking at him, but their secret attention would not be less.

It wasn't that Wang Sheng was self-inflated, but the fact that he crossed the Thousand Absolutes Land was too incredible, so much so that people didn't know what to do now.

At least in public, no one could attack Wang Sheng, let alone force him to reveal his methods. Since everyone couldn't do it, then they wouldn't do anything and just wait and see.

Everyone had strange thoughts. If Wang Sheng could really come and go freely in the Thousand Absolutes Land, wouldn't that mean that the Thousand Absolutes Land would no longer have any secrets?

The Thousand Absolutes Land! That was the Thousand Absolutes Land! If it weren't for the things inside that the aristocratic families couldn't give up, which aristocratic family or even the imperial family would have been constantly trying to explore its secrets for hundreds of years?

All the aristocratic families who participated in the pursuit of Wang Sheng were fools. They let go of such an expert who could walk back and forth in the Thousand Absolutes Land and instead chased him. I really don't know what was in the heads of their leaders, water? Or shit? In short, it was definitely not brains.
