Chapter 186: Chapter 175: Eight Ghosts Carrying the Jade City, High Discussion on Taoist Skill

The Great Refining God General Ceremony.

It was a magic meeting convened by Grandmaster Xuanqi, held at Yunzhou Holy Might Forest.

The day before the ceremony, Song Lin prepared to pack his belongings and set off.

This time, he traveled alone as the ceremony did not require bringing disciples or sect members along.

Song Lin packed the necessary items, gave a few brief instructions to the others, and departed.

"May Master Zhuu win triumphantly!"

The disciples shouted in unison.

Everyone was brimming with confidence, hoping Song Lin would carve out a place for Xuanke Temple during the ceremony.

The Rampant Soldier Dao is not a minor path but a true Great Dao.

After studying it for some time, they understood the Rampant Soldier System was far from ordinary, and Song Lin was its very founder.

Song Lin flew alone towards Yunzhou City.

This was his first time visiting the headquarters of the Southern Sect of the Sacred Might Dao from Yin Mountain.

The Holy Might Taoist School was the origin point of myriad techniques for its twelve surrounding forests, with the Ghost King Sect as its mainstay.

As the central forest, it continuously siphoned resources from the twelve peripheral forests throughout millennia, amassing inconceivable foundations.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Song Lin also wanted to witness the strength of the forest that controlled resources for billions.

Yunzhou City was fifteen hundred li away.

Considering the dangers that might arise during the journey, it would take approximately half a day to reach.

Meanwhile, in Mei Mountain Jungle.

Zhao Wuji also prepared his luggage, ready to set off for Yunzhou.

Bidding farewell to his disciples, Zhao Wuji stepped onto a dark cloud. Just as he was about to depart, someone called out to him from behind.

Master Huoyun emerged from flames.

"Do you have confidence in bringing fame to the forest this time?" Huoyun collected the flames, his expression fluctuating under the night sky.

"Fifty-fifty. There’s a half chance to elevate the forest’s Refining Soldiers Skill to a mid-tier level," Zhao Wuji replied.

It wasn’t that Zhao Wuji was underestimating himself; the theoretical limits of Rampant Soldiers weren’t high, and achieving mid-tier combat strength was already commendable.

Once at the mid-tier level, both reputation and treatment would improve significantly.

"By the way, deliver a letter to a certain Mage for me. Don’t open it privately, and don’t ask too many questions." Huoyun’s expression turned extremely solemn.

Zhao Wuji froze for a moment, sensing the Taoist’s seriousness, and promptly agreed.

Grandmasters generally ranked higher than Taoists by one grade but typically held functional positions within a Taoist School without much actual authority.

After bidding farewell to the Taoist, Zhao Wuji headed for Holy Might Forest.

At dawn.

The clouds glowed like fire, and a majestic city slowly emerged over the horizon. freewebnøvel.coɱ

The city walls towered thirty zhang high, entirely forged of steel and adorned with densely packed runes.

On the battlements stood Taoists and Taoist disciples dressed in Taoist robes.

Song Lin tread on a cloud, bathed in golden light, overlooking the grand city below.

Majestic and ancient, the city resembled a colossal beast lying across the earth, swallowing and emitting a constant stream of travelers and carriages.

Inside the city, there were no shortage of hundred-zhang tall buildings.

This was the most bustling city Song Lin had seen in this world, not inferior to modern metropolises.

Moreover, it exuded the charm of an ancient dynasty modernized to perfection, with even the tall buildings carrying a classical elegance.

Song Lin descended from the sky and entered the city.

The guards nearby didn’t impose any checks. A bronze mirror hung above the city’s gate tower.

The mirror emitted faint golden light, and whenever someone passed below it, the light scanned their body.

It turned out that the manual body search had been replaced with spells.

Blending into the flow of people, Song Lin entered the city.

Unlike other places where markets were clearly divided and strictly guarded, Yunzhou City’s layout resembled that of modern urban areas. Shops lined both sides of the street, with residential areas behind them.

Large red lanterns engraved with runes hung from the trees along the roads.

Song Lin immediately recognized the rune’s function.

They weren’t particularly powerful runes; these were illumination talismans that absorbed light during the day and provided illumination at night.

Unexpectedly, this city even had nightlife.

As Song Lin walked deeper, he noticed many instances of Taoist Skills seamlessly integrated into everyday life.

The city’s population was estimated to reach seven or eight million.

Song Lin didn’t linger or wander aimlessly but headed directly for the location Huoyun had mentioned.

"Could Huoyun be trying to trick me?"

The more Song Lin thought about it, the more bizarre it seemed. From the moment he entered, he hadn’t found any trace of Holy Might Forest.

Logically, such a vast location shouldn’t be too hidden. Even Xuanke Temple had an opulent appearance visible before entering the city.

Song Lin walked for half a day without seeing even a shadow.

However, upon further consideration, it was unlikely that Huoyun was deceiving him. That guy wouldn’t lack ambition and certainly wouldn’t engage in deception over something like this.

With this in mind, Song Lin decided to stick to the originally marked location on the map.

This was a commercial street specializing in selling medicinal items. Besides common herbs, there were finished medicines, and the entire street carried a faint medicinal aroma.

Song Lin arrived at the largest pharmacy in the center.

This was one of the locations Huoyun had mentioned, and Song Lin found it relatively close.

As soon as he entered, he saw an old man dozing off there.

The old man was dressed in plain linen clothing, his appearance aged and feeble.

Although he seemed weak and weary, Song Lin’s breathing technique detected that this man’s cultivation was extraordinarily strong.

"Compassionate Taoist friend. May I ask the way to Holy Might Forest?" Song Lin approached and asked.

The elder opened his half-dazed eyes, seeing someone standing before him without showing any surprise, as if he had been prepared for this.

The old man wiped his face and flipped through the ledger before him with a rustling sound.

"From lower ranks? Show your credentials..."

Song Lin presented Huoyun’s recommendation letter along with his own talisman.

The old man glanced at them, his expression turning solemn, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. He hadn’t expected this young man to hold such authority, even being a master of a Taoist Temple.

Realizing this, the old man hurriedly stood up.
