Chapter 1060 – Yan City (1/2)
Yan City
7/14 chapter!
The ascendants were regarded as a group of special existence in the Immortal World. Even though there were a lot of them, they were still considered a very tiny group, like a grain of corn in the wide sea of the super huge Immortal World, but every one of them were respected by the locals.
“Why are you all looking at me like that? Is there a problem with ascendants?” asked Jiang Chen curiously.
“It seems like Brother Jiang doesn’t know that ascendants have a very significant status in the Immortal World. For a young ascendant like you, you should be able to get a good position in a major power or prefecture. You can also gain lots of cultivation resources from them,” said Han Changling.
“Why’s that?” asked Jiang Chen, confused.
“We all know that the cultivation resources in the Mortal World are scarce, so anyone who ascends to our world possesses great perseverance and talent. Individuals like you will be respected wherever you go. The fact that you ascended to our world at such a young age proves that you are a first-class genius in the Mortal World. If you follow us to Yan City and announce your identity, the majors power in the city will immediately recruit you,” replied Han Changling.
“I see.”
Jiang Chen suddenly realized that the path in the Immortal World wasn’t as difficult as he thought. It seemed like the ascendants were a whole lot better than many of the locals, however, he could never let anyone other than this group know about his true identity.
“Chief and brothers, you must all promise Jiang Chen one thing. Never tell anyone that I’m an ascendant. From now on, none of you should never mention it. I don’t want anyone besides the few of you to know who I am.”
Jiang Chen’s tone changed all of a sudden. If he hadn’t been attacked by the light ray, he would probably make good use of his identity. But now, he could say nothing about it to the public, as someone in this world was trying to put him to death. Also, because he had yet to refine the Soul Imprint in his body, the one who wanted to kill him would be able to identify him easily at the moment. So, the privileges he might get from his identity would also bring harm to him.
“Brother Jiang, may I ask why? It’d be a waste if you won’t make good use of it.” Han Cong looked at Jiang Chen in a dubious way.
“That’s right, Brother Jiang, this is a good deal.” The others added.
“This is a personal secret. I hope that you guys can keep it a secret.”
Jiang Chen’s tone became indisputable.
“Very well, Brother Jiang. We will never reveal your identity to others. You’ve saved my life from that Poisonous Nether Toad—a great kindness to which not only me but all my brothers in Han Village owe to you. It’s only right that we do you a favor in return.” Han Changling patted his chest and said.
He knew better than anyone how dangerous it was to encounter the Poisonous Nether Toad. If it wasn’t for Jiang Chen saving his life, it wasn’t hard to imagine what would happen in Han Village. If he really died, he was afraid that his village would be attacked by the surrounding villages.
“Chief, to be frank, I don’t know anything about your world. I’d be glad if you could continue guiding me,” requested Jiang Chen.
As his recovery was almost complete, he could talk and heal at the same time.
“Brother Jiang, let me tell you something about our world. I once saw a rough map of the Immortal World. The size of our world was too huge for one to imagine. I’m afraid that I will never have the chance to go around the entire Immortal World in my lifetime.” Han Cong sighed.
“Ah Cong, don’t try to reach for something that is beyond your grasp. Don’t talk about the whole world. You’re already good if you can build a good reputation here in One-Line-Sky.” Han Second mocked.
“Don’t be ridiculously. Quickly tell Brother Jiang more about our world. But Brother Jiang, we are basically just telling you what we saw on the map,” said Han Changling.
“Brother Jiang, the boundless Immortal World is divided into nine great immortal domains, namely: the Exquisite Immortal Domain, Mi Luo Immortal Domain, Fengchi Immortal Domain, Yellow Spring Immortal Domain, Ethereal Immortal Domain, Everlasting Immortal Domain, Radiance Immortal Domain, Measureless Immortal Domain and Fulfillment Immortal Domain. Each and every one of these domains runs independently. The domain we are in right now is the Ethereal Domain. It is a very huge place, we don’t even know how huge it is.”
Han Cong explained about the Nine Great Immortal Domains that he saw from the map. To him, and the rest of them who lived in the deep mountains, it was extremely difficult to travel. So, for them, traveling from one domain to another was only a wishful thinking.
