The God Spirit Level Military Affairs Departnt in the Abyss of the Ancient City.
Xiang Xinjian is presently here. When the surrounding soldiers see him, they not only refrain from driving him away, but even halt their steps to salute him.
From the gaze of the past Demon Suppression Army soldiers, one can tell that their salute is incredibly sincere; out of heartfelt respect for Xiang Xinjian.
The reason is not far fetched; on Xiang Xinjian’s chest, there are seven cloud patterns, a sign of slaying over a hundred mbers of the Demon Clan in the seventh layer of the abyss. This insinuates that the man before them is at the very least a True God Level powerhouse.
“Have we found the reason for the disappearance of over a hundred powerhouses in the first level of the abyss?”
Xiang Xinjian asked very naturally; he had already been here for so ti, his aim being to keep an eye on Du Gang’s movents.
He was very familiar with the situation in the first level of the abyss.
“Sir, based on these people’s trajectories, we concluded that they disappeared after the battle before Big Dragon went missing…”
“Witnesses saw these people leave in a hurry, as if they were in so sort of tacit understanding…”
“We found out that before that, Du Gang was among the first to leave with another team…”
“And that other team also disappeared, so we suspect that Du Gang may have sothing to do with this…”
A stern-faced, red-faced man added, “And we have discovered traces of activity from the Demon domain within the abyss of the ancient city…”
“The Demon domain?!”
Xiang Xinjian’s brows knitted together, “They’re back?”
The red-faced man nodded, “A person from the Demon domain has been notably active in our Communication Zone, and has secretly t with quite a few powerhouses…”
He paused for a mont, then quickly added: “All the people that this Demon Domain guy t with were First Tribulation God Spirits…”
Xiang Xinjian, being assigned to protect Du Gang, was naturally not weak himself. As such, he quickly grasped what was happening.
“So, the hundred or so missing individuals were bribed by the Demon Domain and tried to kill Du Gang, but were counter-killed instead?”
The red-faced man nodded, saying, “That should be the case. We conducted a thorough investigation and found that many of the hundred or so people had indeed interacted with people from the Demon Domain before they died. Besides, the ruins of the sacrificial altar in the first level of the abyss were also activated…”
Xiang Xinjian silently nodded his head, approvingly saying: “So, Du Gang, this kid, is still hiding quite substantial power!”
At this mont, another man in military uniform walked in.
“Sir, there is a situation!”
Xiang Xinjian quickly said: “Speak!”
The newcor imdiately began to report.
“The people of the Demon Domain have moved again, this ti they’ve contacted quite a few Second Tribulation and Third Tribulation God Spirits…”
Xiang Xinjian frowned again, asking: “Has anyone recently reported on the Demon Domain to the military?”
The newcor shook his head, “No…”
“Hmph!”
Xiang Xinjian snorted coldly, “These people, living off the resources of the Ancient City, are not thinking about contributing, they even chose to conceal such matters…”
The red-faced man spoke anxiously: “From the looks of it, the news about Du Gang heading to the second level of the abyss has been leaked, so the people from the Demon Domain want to target him…”
He continued, “Should we capture the person from the Demon Domain?”
“Not yet!”
Xiang Xinjian shook his head, “The people from the Demon Domain must have informants in the abyss of the Ancient City. If we capture this man, they’ll just send tougher ones…”
The red-faced man was worried, “So, what do we do about Du Gang?”
His concern was genuine. As far as he was concerned, Du Gang, being a pillar of the Ancient City and having the potential to contribute greatly to humanity in the future, should not be allowed to die.
In addition to that, it was because he was a descendant of Pangu, the soldiers of the Demon Suppression Army in the Ancient City Abyss respected his status more compared to those in the Ancient City.
“I’m not worried about Du Gang!”
Xiang Xinjian laughed, “This guy can get rid of more than a hundred controllers, he certainly isn’t weak…”
“Also, as far as I understand him, it’s likely that he himself spread the news that he’s heading to the second layer of the abyss, right?!”
A smile appeared on his face, there was nothing that pleased him more than seeing the person he was keeping an eye on beco even stronger.
“If this guy dares to leak the news to attract Second Tribulation and even Third Tribulation God Spirits, he must have sothing substantial…”
The red-faced man frowned, “So are we just going to do nothing?”
To him, people from the Demon Domain were enemies that should all be eliminated without exception.
Xiang Xinjian smiled lightly and shook his head, “Not necessarily do nothing…”
With a tortured expression on his face, he pulled a scroll out of his pocket, “You send soone to deliver this to him…”
“This is…”
The red-faced man hesitated. The mont he received it, he was dumbfounded.
“Such a valuable item…”
Xiang Xinjian waved his hand and laughed, “Never mind, just give it to him…”
The red-faced man swallowed, this scroll, to him, also had a particularly powerful function, he didn’t expect…
However, he didn’t have any covetous thoughts, he just took it and said with emotion: “Du Gang is really lucky to be able to receive a Dao scroll made by you!”
“This kind of thing…”
Upon hearing it, another mber of the Demon Suppression Army’s eyes almost popped out, “Every one of these is worth a fortune, and…”
Xiang Xinjian casually replied: “Isn’t it just a scroll to enhance cultivation progress? I’ll give one to each of you two when I have ti in the future!”
“Ah?!”
The two were startled, becoming ecstatic a mont later. They hurriedly expressed thanks.
From their attitudes, it was clear that this so-called Dao scroll wasn’t as simple as Xiang Xinjian made it seem.
“Sir, don’t worry, I will send soone to deliver it imdiately…”
Xiang Xinjian reminded him: “Better be fast, or wait until he enters the abyss… um, do it without traces, don’t let those eyes see…”
“Understood!”
In a private room of a wine shop outside the abyss, an old hag was writing fervently on a special piece of gold paper.
This was a super long-distance ssage paper, capable of delivering ssages across great distances.
“Leader, the Ancient God is still alive, the one we outsourced may not work, propose to send soone from our temple…”
Soon, the old man finished writing. Afterward, he took out a bottle of vibrant red potion, cautiously unscrewed it, and quickly dropped a drop on it.
“Splash!”
The mont the potion dropped, he quickly cut his palm, golden blood flowed instantly, mixing with the potion and gradually seeping into the paper.
This was a special thod of transmitting ssages. Besides requiring a specially formulated potion and the user’s blood, it also needed to consu a portion of the user’s soul power. This greatly eliminated the possibility of the ssage being seized by others and false information being released.
As he perford these operations, the characters originally printed on the gold paper slowly disappeared, and when they reappeared, they were thousands of miles away.
About a mont later, the gold paper suddenly shone brightly, and a line of characters erged.
“Bronze assassin Ghost Pupil is about to arrive!”
Seeing this line of words, the old man was overjoyed.
A bronze assassin, although only a God Spirit Level, being a bronze level represents sothing exceptional.
In the Demon Domain, there are only two types of assassins, regular assassins and rank assassins. Most of them are just regular assassins, becoming a rank assassin is extrely difficult.
Bronze assassins are capable of assassinations above their rank.
“Ghost Pupil, is that the one who kills his target by just watching him?”
The old man breathed a sigh of relief, “If he takes action, it will be a sure thing. Though he only has the cultivation of a Third Tribulation God Spirit, he has the strength to kill Six Tribulation God Spirits. If he takes action, we’re almost guaranteed to succeed!”
…
“Du Gang, take care!”
Under everyone’s gaze, Du Gang finally made his way towards the second layer of the abyss.
To Long Aotian and the others, this was just an ordinary farewell, they would inevitably et again sooner or later.
But in fact, already many people silently followed after him.
“Step by step!”
Du Gang stepped lightly, seeming genuinely elated about heading to the second layer of the abyss, completely unaware of the unknown dangers ahead.
But in reality, he was extrely alert.
Although he knew that these people would at least wait until they were in the abyss to make a move on him, what if…?
What if there was a fool who directly attacked him here?
Hence, he pretended to be ignorant on the surface but was very vigilant in private.
Just then, a group of people were returning from the abyss.
Seeing this group radiating a strong aura, Du Gang consciously stepped aside to show respect.
But as they passed each other, Du Gang suddenly noticed an almost transparent ring on his finger.
What the heck?!
At that instant, his heart was filled with countless waves of shock.
But at that mont, a voice ssage reached his ears.
“Don’t panic, I was sent by Lord Xiang Xinjian!”
Upon hearing this, Du Gang imdiately suppressed the shock in his heart and didn’t let it show on his face.
“Inside the ring is a scroll, the Tao scroll, which can increase the speed of cultivation…”
In an instant, Du Gang understood everything.
His heart heaved a sigh of relief.
So, Xiang Xinjian, this baldy is also in the abyss!
He smiled softly, quickly stopped, and turned back in the direction he ca from.
The returning team was slightly surprised, but didn’t make it obvious. The leading man felt strangely uncomfortable and sent a voice ssage: “What are you doing?”
“It’s nothing, I’m just going back…”
Hearing this, the person in charge of delivering the scroll didn’t care to ask further and directly separated at the next intersection, leaving no trace of recognition.
“What should we do? Should we invite soone else to join our team?”
“Ahem, how about ?!”
Young Master Kong Xu spoke up at the right mont. He arrived earlier, had no teammates and he didn’t participate in this training, so he wasn’t too familiar with the others.
“You?”
Long Aotian nodded, “Alright, we’ll add you then…”
Just then, Little Hawk King’s surprised voice ca.
“Du Gang, why did you co back?”
Everyone turned their heads upon hearing this and sure enough, Du Gang was approaching them quickly from a distance.
Du Gang chuckled, “Missing you all, why else?”
“Cut it out!”
Qiao Bing rolled his eyes and huffed.
At this ti, Du Gang explained to them as if he was giving them an explanation, saying, “As I walked, I felt my cultivation seems to have improved, so I decided to cultivate a bit before continuing!”
“What?!”
The group was startled. Soon, Long Aotian asked anxiously, “Du Gang, you’re not planning to break through to the Second Tribulation God Spirit, are you?!”
As soon as this was said, the others were also shocked, staring at him dumbfoundedly.
Upon hearing this, Du Gang simply smiled and said, “Who knows, perhaps after this round of cultivation, I may beco a True God!”
Hearing his nonchalant words, everyone finally managed to suppress their initial shock sowhat.
“Indeed, that’s impressive. Even if you can’t breakthrough to the Second Tribulation God Spirit, your cultivation should still improve, right?!!
Everyone looked at Du Gang with envy.
They all knew the importance of this, and from Du Gang’s words, they guessed that he might have so sort of insight, otherwise, he wouldn’t have returned so easily.
This ant that even if he couldn’t breakthrough to the Second Tribulation God Spirit, he still had an opportunity to improve his cultivation technique.
Du Gang laughed heartily but didn’t waste any ti. He went back to his room, threw out a line about holding the fort for him, and started to cultivate.
The others, being self-aware, guarded him from all sides.
Although they knew that this area was a communication zone and a safe area where no one dared to act recklessly, what if soone disturbed him?
Such insights often coincidentally occur and are a rare opportunity that mustn’t be missed.
At this mont, those who were tailing Du Gang from afar, were sowhat surprised but upon hearing his explanation, didn’t develop any other thoughts and still patiently waited.
As for Du Gang, he maintained a state of ditative focus, cultivating with quiet determination.
In reality, his consciousness was mainly focused on his inner world, where his spirit was examining the scroll given to him earlier.
Although that person said it was gifted by Xiang Xinjian, Du Gang still checked it carefully. It was only after confirming that Xiang Xinjian’s mana was on it that he slowly opened it.
The instant he opened the scroll, a vast power enveloped him.
“Buzz!”
At this mont, the world in Du Gang’s eyes seed to slow down.
He understood that this was an extrely profound realm, possibly close to understanding so kind of origin.
Without wasting a mont, he began to comprehend the World Creation technique.
At this mont, he seed to have once again entered the ti charm’s domain, experiencing a sense of ti different from reality.
Under this special state, the progress of his World Creation technique began to increase at an unimaginable rate.
0.01%…
0.02%…
0.03%…
Ti gradually passed. In just one minute, Du Gang’s cultivation progress had reached two percent.
But it wasn’t over yet!
These two percent were actually his own personal insight, and he just lacked the ti. Now, this special scroll saved him ti and helped him cover this distance directly.
And as his cultivation progress reached two percent, the energy attached to the scroll flickered again.
“Boom!”
With a boom in his mind, he felt like he had an epiphany, his cultivation progress slowly advanced from 2% to 2.001%. Though it was just a small step, once he took it, a vision of reaching 3% worry-free was possible.
