Chapter 512 - Chapter 512: Chapter 504 Myriad Beast Gang (2/2)

Qin Niu bowed with clasped hands, then took the Earth Escape Talisman and departed.

The shop owner’s words were somewhat profound, seemingly hinting to Qin Niu in secret that what matters most in acquiring immortal fate is destiny, not that joining the Immortal Gate ensures everything will be smooth sailing.

Since this person was an Immortal Scholar, Bei Bing’s grandfather was most likely one as well.

Qin Niu was very curious about what level of cultivation this person had achieved.

It is said that once one reaches the Immortal Warrior Realm, one can cultivate spells.

This Mr. Long, the owner, along with Bei Bing’s grandfather, should both be capable of casting spells.

After purchasing the talismans, he made a special trip to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Thinking of accompanying the Black Tiger Gang Leader to Elixir City, it would be good to have someone to rely on during the journey.

Only after asking the guards did he learn that the Black Tiger Gang Leader and Gongsun Jin had set off for Elixir City twelve days prior.

Currently, only a few Innate Realm Experts are stationed in Black Tiger City.

Almost all Spirit Qi Realm Experts have already rushed to Elixir City, each one eager to seize their immortal fate and enter the Immortal Sect.

Qin Niu could only drive the horse cart, heading to Elixir City with his wife and Xiao Qing.

That night, they stayed at an inn in Seven-Star City.

The speed of the horse cart was limited; after rushing for more than three hours in the afternoon, they only arrived at Seven-Star City when darkness had fallen.

By then, the city gates had already been closed.

Being a Grade One noble and executor of the Black Tiger Gang, Qin Niu possessed a distinguished status. Now that Seven-Star City was under the Black Tiger Gang’s control, once he displayed his identity token, the soldiers guarding the city opened the gate to let him in.

Sometimes, a noble identity can be very useful. At critical moments, it allows one to enjoy privileges that ordinary people do not have.

At night, Qin Niu nestled with his wife in bed.

Xiao Qing slept in the next room.

“Wan Yan, this talisman is called the Earth Escape Talisman. At a critical moment, you only need to drop blood on this spot, or activate it with your cultivation power, and the talisman will be triggered. When using it, make sure you’re not on rocky ground, otherwise it will fail…”

Qin Niu only had two Earth Escape Talismans.

He kept one for himself and gave the other to his wife.

At times like this, there’s a big difference between a maid and a wife.

Important cultivation resources will always be given to a wife first, and not to a maid.

“Remember, this talisman is extremely precious, and should only be used when your life is in danger.”

Qin Niu was worried that his wife, lacking worldly experience, might use it at the slightest sign of danger. When a real threat to their lives emerged, they would be left with no talisman to use.

In the days that followed, Qin Niu spent each day traveling with his wife and Xiao Qing.

Fortunately, the horses pulling the cart were top-grade Black Mare Horses. There were two of them, and for the time being, they showed no signs of frothing at the mouth or collapsing from exhaustion.

When they seemed unable to pull any longer, Qin Niu would stop to rest appropriately.

The Green Ox followed behind the horse cart as it ran.

This lazy beast was not going to pull the cart; that was impossible.

At home, besides eating and playing, its only use was producing about ten or more kilograms of wet manure daily. Its dung was very fertile, excellent for fertilizing medicinal herbs.

On the eighth day, their cart had entered the territory of the Myriad Beast Gang.

During the Water and Land Dharma Assembly period, the borders of the major sects were almost completely open, allowing free passage to all. This was an unwritten rule among the sects, a kind of tacit agreement between them.

“We’ve been running through the Myriad Beast Gang’s territory for almost a day, right? Their domain is really vast.”

Qin Niu parked the cart on the roadside to rest.

The two Black Mare Horses were so exhausted that they extended their tongues to pant, their mouths covered in foam.

The Myriad Beast Gang, an old-established sect with tremendous strength, had grown and expanded over the years through annexing the domains of many other sects.

In terms of influence, it probably wasn’t much different from the Fire Cloud Tunnel.

Each sect has its own distinctive features. For instance, the Nine Insect Gang mainly uses insects, while the Black Tiger Gang primarily focuses on beast taming, and also develops other areas.

The Myriad Beast Gang’s emphasis on beast taming is apparent just from its name.

Qin Niu took out a map and realized that after running for a whole day, they had only crossed one-third of Myriad Beast Gang’s territory.
