Oldcarefully placed the jade piece into his pocket and let out a long breath His eyes exuded confidence

With a wave of his hand, a black shadow appeared instantly in front of oldGradually, the black shadow began to for before he had reached Xiantian With a slight shake, its appearance began to grow younger, eventually taking the appearance that oldnow had

Forty years old Originally, oldhad the appearance of a forty or fifty years old er after that one night with Zixun Fairy Now he looked like he was around 40

“Shadow clone[1]? Looks exactly likesaid with a smile

This was the special ability oldacquired when he travelled to this worldOne man could control two bodies The body of the shadow clone could turn into shadow and pass through a gap as tiny as the space under a door and hide inside another’s shadow It was quite ical

Certainly, this was a special power; under light, oldand this shadow clone could still cast shadows This shadow clone was particularly unusual, it was similar to the clones in the novel on Earth froendary Di-er Yuanshen[2], or a treasure with special power It was even ical than all of those

At this point, oldrenamed his two bodies, body and shadow

“This way, the shadow can stay at the Zhong resident It won’t be good if it’s found out by the Kaiyang School The shadow can’t practice Hongluan Tianjing, so ait till later when I find the techniques to practice But, as long as the body does not die, the shadoill last The red bead will be given to the shadow for safe keeping The body will go to the Kaiyang School” oldplanned for the two bodies of his

The two bodies hugged each other The body staround appeared on the floor Tidying up his clothes, the body went doith the jade piece in his pocket After he descended, the entrance closed again

The shadow continued to sit on the cushi+on to meditate The body had reached Xiantian and the shadoithout any restraint, would reach Xiantian in no time

The body, old round There was a railtrack there, too

Ten days on the train, he arrived at another villa

This was another one of old ’s properties This villa was also located next to a hugeSchool was inside thesedidn’t want to build the railroad into the mountain, it’s only because the mountains were made of hard rocks It would take hundred years just to drill through a few mountains

He rested for two days and readied all the things he needed After giving so put on a backpack, grabbed a machete, and walked deep into the mountains

Fro mountains and had few people In addition, there were rasses, filled with erous ani wouldn’t dare to venture in by himself if he hadn’t reached Xiantian

The h was the norm In the distance there were a multitude of tallneeded to cli School situated inside

He wasXiantian It only took a few uninterrupted ju avoided all the poisonous insects and grasses he encountered along the way

But the location of the Kaiyang School was too far away He had to find a place to rest at night

In the evening, oldfound a relatively clean valley It was clean because there weren’t as rasses, with no e animals

There’s a cave in the valley which could serve as a shelter It was only large enough for one person He cleaned it up, sprinkled soed inside

Start a fire? Olddidn’t dare Fire would expose his position Most animals back on earth were afraid of fire But, the animals here, or should he say monstrous beasts, would they even be afraid of fire?

Oldmerely sat inside and awaited daybreak

He sat till ht

“Aowu ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~”

A high pitched howl pierced through the valley in the deep of night

Oldfrowned, opened his eyes and peered outside

At this ht moon in the sky shone over the valley The howl ca looked up

A large silver wolf, three h A three meters tall wolf

The silver as howling towards the , its silver fur shone especially bright It was not bright silver, rather it looked as if theht?

A monstrous beast?

Old nized that it was a monstrous beast just from one look

Realizing it, oldbecame alarmed He quickly retreated into the cave and started to practice Guixi Dafa[3] hoping that the big ould not notice him

Old ue beyond ordinary animals Even the lowest level of monstrous beast had reached the abilities of a hu had just entered Xiantian, the weakest of Xiantian In addition, he did not know any supporting techniques, only those of Houtian If he had known soht it But, now, obviously, he could only hide and hope that the wolf did not see him

Oldwas in the middle of Guixi, but, did a wolf only sense the breathe of its prey? The nose of a wolf is especially sharp After howling to the ht, it turned to stare at the direction of the valley A chilling look was in its eyes
