Instructor Li shook his head, “In any case, we shouldn’t have let him waste time in the villa.

Sending him to the main mountain earlier would have averted many troubles.”

“However…” As he spoke, he actually started laughing, “If not for this, we wouldn’t have had such an unexpected achievement.”

At this moment, even though they had lost track of An Jing’s whereabouts and were threatened by the enemy, Xu Wenshi and Instructor Li weren’t worried.

Although they didn’t know An Jing’s true strength, they were clear that, no matter how high An Jing’s martial force or how many hidden cards he had, he was ultimately alone.

He was running through the wilderness, and his speed certainly couldn’t exceed that of the flying shuttle.

Even if An Jing could conceal his breath for three or four days, or even avoid detection by divine skills, what would it matter?

Let the young man run for a few days; as the Divine Sect’s forces gradually converged in the northwest, An Jing’s escape would become increasingly difficult.

Of course, they weren’t completely without concerns.

The actions of the Divine Sect could also alert Da Chen and the surrounding sects.

If An Jing really managed to escape to a major city and find shelter under Da Chen’s government, their mission would be deemed a failure.

However, the city closest to the border, guarded by a Grandmaster of the Martial Meridian from Da Chen, was still four thousand li away from here, and there were Divine Sect members gathering to block the area around.

Moreover, that Martial Meridian Grandmaster…

was also a member of the Demon Sect!

Even if An Jing could travel a thousand li in a day, it was nearly impossible for him to truly escape.

“Let’s retreat.”

Storing away the ‘mountain and river register’ he held, Xu Wenshi treasured this item greatly, “An Jing’s breath concealing skills are quite advanced, most likely related to his Fate Pattern.

We won’t be able to pinpoint his location these next few days.”

“Let’s go to the nearby villages for rest and wait for orders.

With this flying shuttle here, there’s no way he can escape our grasp.”

“Let’s go.” Nodding slightly, Instructor Li began to direct the team back.

Another world.

After briefly determining his direction, An Jing sped towards a wilderness village in another world with all his might.

At this point, he had no other choice.

He needed to secure more resources and increase his strength within these three days.

Either a sniper rifle that could take down the flying shuttle or some vehicle or other tool that could enhance his speed, break through the Demon Sect’s encirclement, and shake off the pursuit.

This was originally seen as an impossible task; An Jing had thought it was up to him to try and find out what was unachievable.

However, half a day later, as he reached the outskirts of the town, An Jing realized he might have overestimated the difficulties.

Because, he discovered that the language spoken by the people of this world was exactly the same as that of the Embracing the Void world.

If the east is where the sun rises, then the large mountain where An Jing first descended was to the southwest, and the large city where the Immortal Path battleship landed in another world was located to the northeast-north.

In the expanse between them lay a vast wilderness.

The wilderness contained scattered dark green forests, a muddy Great River running through the plains, and barren grey soil.

A few dilapidated human towns were situated along the rivers, encircled by metal towers on the outskirts, with greenhouses, workshops, residential areas, and factory furnaces inside.

The giant furnace at the town center, nearly two hundred meters tall like a small hill, emitted gray-white smoke that surged out and turned into columns supporting the heavens, piercing the gray dome.

Using the smoke columns and the furnace as coordinates, An Jing hardly needed to determine directions.

However, the wilderness was different from the forest; it offered little obstruction to movement but made it easy to be spotted by an Observer, so An Jing slowed his pace as he approached the town.

This moment was the beginning of nighttime, roughly during Xu Time, which theoretically even in a past life, was the time people were preparing to rest and sleep.

Although there might still be some night markets open, it was highly probable that these wilderness towns enforced curfews.

Initially, An Jing planned to scout the surroundings of the town for half a day, having the Sword Spirit help keep watch while he took a short rest, and then see if there was a chance to blend into the town in the morning and learn the local language.

But who would have thought that just as An Jing got close to the town and hadn’t had a chance to catch his breath, he heard gunshots.

Whoo—almost instantly, An Jing instinctively sprawled on the ground.

This instinct from his past life saved An Jing’s life because, following that, the gunfire was as dense as frying beans and setting off firecrackers, resounding in all directions.

“Die, mongrel of the Flame Claw Gang!”

“Kill them!

Turn these spineless bastards into sieves and drive them off our turf!”

An Jing hid behind a large rock and watched from a distance.

Inside the town, two groups were fiercely battling, shouting their respective gang’s slogans.

And their shouted words were exactly the same as the language of Embracing the Void world.

But now, An Jing felt no surprise.

The youth inhaled sharply and muttered to himself, “Is another world this simple and hospitable?”

He watched as streaks of spiritual power bullets flew, intertwining into a tight network in the streets, the gun’s fire even lighting up the dim night sky.

Many stray bullets headed in An Jing’s previous direction; had he not dodged on time, he would definitely have had two more bloody wounds.

These two groups fought while running, constantly changing the battlegrounds from inside the town to the outside, and even initiating an intensely hot car chase—a fleet of differently modified cars spewing sparks, shining with spiritual patterns, propping up translucent shields, and exchanging fire with the opposing armed vehicles.

Some modified cars could even fly, bombing from a higher position!

Of course, attacking the most prominent target, that car was quickly brought down by concentrated fire and exploded into fireworks in mid-air.

Before long, the main forces had left the town and moved to the wilderness, while those left behind cursed at each other across street barricades but didn’t escalate the conflict or damage the buildings.

It seemed there was order in the chaos.

“They are all Sword Cultivators!”

The Sword Spirit exclaimed in surprise, “And, they are speaking ‘Dao Law’!”

“I think they might not be traditional Sword Cultivators,” An Jing tactfully said.

He ducked his head to avoid stray bullets, “What is ‘Dao Law’?”

“Dao Law is the language passed down by the Dao Sect and Dao Courtyard,” the Sword Spirit explained.

“According to ancient legends, a True Immortal used Heaven and Earth as a ship and the stars as sails, carrying Five Cities Twelve Towers, 180,000 people to ascend into the Hong Hong Great Wilderness, marking the beginning of the Embracing the Void human race.”

“Legend has it that Embracing the Void was that True Immortal’s Daoist name, and the heritage He left behind was referred to by later generations as the ‘Dao Courtyard’ or ‘Dao Sect’.”

“The language, measurements, and standards used by the Embracing the Void race were all established by the Dao Courtyard.”

“Later, for reasons unknown to me, the Great Immortal left the Embracing the Void world, and the Dao Sect thus split, transforming into what is now known as the ‘Embracing the Void Ten Provinces,’ named after the five colors and directions.”

“But no matter how much they split, all languages used by the people of Embracing the Void remain ‘Dao Law’.”

At this point, the Sword Spirit mused, “This another world has my fragment and they speak Dao Law, it seems greatly related to Embracing the Void world…

or perhaps to the ‘Dao Courtyard’.”

“Perhaps this world is also under the Dao lineage passed down from the ‘Embracing the Void Great Immortal,’ or maybe a new realm developed by the split Dao Courtyard in later generations?”

“In any case, this world and Embracing the Void share the same language and race; we are all one family,” the Sword Spirit joyfully said.

“Presumably the Dao law and heritage here follow from the same lineage, which makes things much easier for you and me!”

An Jing appreciated the Sword Spirit’s simple optimism and proactive attitude, but he had a small doubt, “If the local customs here are so warm and welcoming, even if they speak the same language, that might not stop them from readily shooting or stabbing me.”

“Different clothes, different accent, how can I blend into the town?”

“Hmm…”

This clearly wasn’t the Sword Spirit’s area of expertise, but with vast experience, it gave An Jing a good suggestion, “How about changing your clothes?”

“I see those people fighting fiercely; grab some clothes from a dead guy to start with.”

Being a sword, it naturally lacked human morals, so stripping clothes from a dead person seemed utterly justifiable.

“Good idea.” An Jing nodded slightly, his eyes ardently watching the wilderness where the two groups had battled.
