In order to improve his movent efficiency within the mist and reach the vicinity of the Sun and Moon River as quickly as possible.
Jiang Ye focused his mind and directly switched his form—
His flesh and blood body, which had looked no different from a living person, rapidly transford back into a chanical state, his entire person once again appearing as a robot devoid of flesh and blood.
Imdiately after, a faint sound, akin to a motor running or gears turning, emanated from within this chanical body.
Accompanied by this sound, his chanical body, much like a Transforr, underwent a series of morphological changes.
In the end, his tall, one-ter-eight fra actually shrank down into a chanical wristwatch roughly the size of a palm.
This chanical wristwatch looked sowhat different from the bizarre sight of the two chanical eyeballs wearing prison watches before.
It appeared as if the prison watch and the two chanical eyeballs had completely fused.
Those two eyeballs, now in the form of even smaller spheres, dangled respectively at the ends of the wristwatch's straps on either side.
Overall, it looked like a rather stylishly designed chanical wristwatch.
In this form, Jiang Ye could clearly feel—
The two spheres at the ends of the straps still functioned similarly to "eyes."
Jiang Ye could directly capture the visual field seen by these two "eyes."
Simultaneously, these two "eyes" could also float and fly through the air, just like the chanical eyeballs that had patrolled the prison corridor before.
The chanical eyeballs patrolling the prison corridor flew very slowly, basically at the speed of a normal person walking.
But in reality, the chanical eyeballs' speed was incredibly fast!
Initially, Jiang Ye only knew from the information synchronized from the chanical eyeballs that their flight speed could be very fast.
But he had no concept of exactly how fast.
It wasn't until he personally flew using that "two-eyeballs-with-a-watch" form that he suddenly realized with a shock…
The sensation of the chanical eyeballs flying at extre speed was quite similar to his past experience using [Light and Shadow Escape]!
It was as if the chanical eyeballs themselves inherently possessed the [Light and Shadow Escape] effect!
So these chanical eyeballs produced by the sun…
Could they also have so connection to "light"?!
Those chanical eyeballs produced by the sun might be equivalent to little "tiny suns"? Or "tiny light points"?
And the prison watches produced by the moon, do they have so relationship with ti?
Is that why the moon in later tis transford into an entire [Moon Phase Clock]?
Then what about the sun in later tis? What did it beco?
Could it have been destroyed?
The train of thought in Jiang Ye's mind didn't last very long.
The speed of the chanical eyeballs' [Light and Shadow Escape]-like effect was simply too fast.
He hadn't been traveling through the mist for long before, upon reaching the peripheral area of the Heaven and Earth Sun and Moon River, he reverted from the state of a watch with two eyeballs at its ends back to the living, flesh-and-blood human form.
This was a default command written into the genes of all Sun and Moon People.
Naly, all Sun and Moon People must not reveal their secret of not being Moon People to the Moon People.
And there was a probability of Moon People appearing in the vicinity of the Heaven and Earth Sun and Moon River.
Therefore, Sun and Moon People arriving here must maintain their disguise as Moon People.
To avoid exposing himself, Jiang Ye naturally would not violate these default commands.
He soon continued towards the direction of the Sun and Moon River, once again in the guise of "Cheng Lin."
This ti, after just a few minutes of swift movent, he indeed spotted from afar the figures of so "Moon People."
Of course, within this mist, the vision of normal Moon People would be limited to a range of 1-10 ters.
The visual range of so newbie weaklings was basically only 1 ter.
Only those powerful players with strong attributes, or those possessing innate talents or Glyph Pattern Abilities, could potentially achieve a 10-ter visual range.
And 10 ters was the visual limit for Moon People within the mist.
No matter how heaven-defying the innate talent or Glyph Pattern, it was impossible to break through this limit.
Sun and Moon People possessing chanical eyeballs had a conventional visual range of several hundred ters.
With the enhancent of attributes, innate talents, or Glyph Patterns, achieving a clairvoyant effect was not impossible.
Thus, Sun and Moon People possessed an absolute visual advantage within the mist.
And because of this advantage, the "pseudo-Moon People" identity of the Sun and Moon People was very difficult for Moon People to see through.
Of course, a considerable portion of those Moon People Jiang Ye saw from afar were likely also disguised Sun and Moon People.
But whether they were pure Moon People or disguised ones didn't matter.
Generally, Moon People who could reach the vicinity of the Heaven and Earth Sun and Moon River, regardless of their own strength, would not actively provoke conflicts with others.
They would basically avoid others from a distance, like extre social anxiety sufferers.
They would even try to avoid scrutinizing others and making eye contact.
For this very reason, to perfectly disguise himself as a Sun and Moon Person, Jiang Ye didn't dare to scrutinize those players too much.
His discreet gaze focused more on the banks of the Sun and Moon River.
The Sun and Moon River on this side of the mist was equivalent to being in the "Moon River" section.
It was also shrouded in mist, and the mist over the river surface was even denser than on the banks, faintly exuding an unfathomable sense of mystery.
Even the vision of the chanical eyeballs could not penetrate the mist within the Moon River area.
However, it was visible that a simple dock extended from the deep, dense mist of the Moon River area.
Calling it a "dock" was really just an open area where Moon People players were queuing.
Not daring to draw attention, Jiang Ye low-key joined the end of the line.
The queue wasn't very long, only about a dozen people or so.
Soon, from a lighthouse-like building on the riverbank, he spent "100 days" of ti from his watch to purchase a "boat ticket" to the other side of the Sun and Moon River.
It was called a "boat ticket," but when he continued forward, reaching the bank closer to the Moon River, what he saw was not a boat.
But rather… the front of a train?
So the "Mist Train" was a product of this era?
Not daring to show any abnormality on his face, Jiang Ye swiped his "boat ticket" and boarded the train.
This train seed to be composed of multiple carriages.
He just swiped his boat ticket, and his entire person was directly teleported to a seat.
On either side of his seat, a Moon Person was already sitting.
In front was a half-ter-wide long table, and opposite were three seats, already fully occupied by three people.
Thus, these six people ford a three-versus-three seating arrangent separated by a long table.
To the left of the seat on Jiang Ye's left side was a tightly closed train window. Outside the window was dense mist, and the window seed unable to be opened.
To the right of the seat on his right side was a long train corridor.
Across the corridor was also a long row of three-versus-three seats.
Most seats were already occupied by players.
It seed there were quite a few Moon People players on this train.
But within this carriage holding so many people, there was an almost eerily quiet atmosphere.
Forget talking, it seed there wasn't even the sound of coughing or yawning.
Jiang Ye naturally didn't dare to make a sound either, just sitting quietly, waiting for the train to start.
The journey of the Mist Train proceeded without any mishaps.
However, he spent a full four or five hours on the train!
These four or five hours might not an much to other Sun and Moon People without thoughts or souls.
But for Jiang Ye, it felt long and tedious.
At first, he leaned back in his seat and rested with his eyes closed.
But at so point, he actually dozed off in a daze.
What brought him back from his dazed state was not a train arrival announcent.
But…
A sudden, abrupt sensation appearing in his mind, coming from a full ten thousand clones!
To be honest, in that instant, Jiang Ye's first reaction was that he had accidentally stumbled into so illusion technique!
His second reaction was also thinking, was he perhaps caught up in so conspiracy trap targeting him?
Otherwise, why would he suddenly sense ten thousand clones??
However, when he quickly cald down, he soon realized…
It really didn't seem to be so conspiracy trap!
First, what was visibly apparent—
Looking out from the train window, the view was no longer shrouded in mist!
Instead, one could see distinct, warm white sunlight!
Beneath the sunlight was a vast, boundless expanse of water, stretching as far as the eye could see!
The water surface appeared a deep, almost black ink-blue.
And such a water surface, rather than a "river surface," actually more resembled a "sea surface."
This sea surface was so calm that even the Mist Train traveling across it didn't create a single ripple!
By observing the change in scenery outside the train window, it wasn't hard to deduce—
The reason Jiang Ye could suddenly sense his clones…
Was probably because he had left the mist's range!
Thus, the mist's effect of blocking the connection between him and his clones completely disappeared!
Therefore, he could suddenly sense the existence of ten thousand clones within the "Sun River" area belonging to the Qiankun Land!
So, why were there already a full ten thousand clones within the "Qiankun Land" before he even set foot in it?
Regarding this question, Jiang Ye's mind soon got an answer—
Because he very clearly perceived…
Those ten thousand clones were neither genuine original clones, nor fake clones ford by soone impersonating him…
But a full ten thousand Puppet Clones!
And speaking of a full ten thousand Puppet Clones, Jiang Ye naturally thought first of—
Before his Clone No. 1 agreed to enter the [Court of Disorder] with Zhou Yuling…
He had mortgaged a full ten thousand Puppet Clones to Lin Ling.
Of course, it was called a mortgage, but he also received a full ten thousand survival points.
So that transaction was a sure profit for him.
And those ten thousand Puppet Clones were sealed by Lin Ling using talismans, turned into a mini Small Wooden Doll state, and placed like chess pieces on the giant chessboard suspended above the black ice domain.
Jiang Ye didn't know what grand sche Lin Ling was playing.
But at the ti, he thought, even if ten thousand Puppet Clones died, it didn't matter.
Yet at this mont…
The ten thousand Puppet Clones he sensed should be the very ones Lin Ling placed on the chessboard!
So, those ten thousand Puppet Clones had also ti-traveled!
It's just, for so reason…
Other players seed to have traveled to the Land of Exile.
Only those ten thousand Puppet Clones traveled to the Qiankun Land?
Or rather, were those ten thousand Puppet Clones brought from the Land of Exile to the Qiankun Land by soone?
Jiang Ye didn't know.
But he could sense—
The location of those ten thousand Puppet Clones was still at an extrely high altitude!
So…
Could it be that the ten thousand Puppet Clones were still on the giant chessboard located at an extrely high altitude?
As he pondered this in his heart, Jiang Ye suddenly heard a faint, unusual sound in this carriage that should have been eerily quiet.
It wasn't the sound of anyone speaking, but rather a relatively heavy breathing sound that stood out in the quiet atmosphere.
As if soone was restraining excited emotions.
Jiang Ye didn't dare to let his eyes wander.
However, he seemingly unintentionally shifted his gaze towards the direction of the window.
At that mont, he suddenly noticed—
In that seemingly boundless sea surface, in an extrely distant direction…
A towering building was faintly visible!
Because the distance was too great, the building appeared exceptionally tiny visually.
However, Jiang Ye, possessing chanical eyeballs, could see from afar in this non-misty environnt just how spectacular that seemingly tiny building truly was!
Presumably, the heavy breathing just now was from other Moon People players who had noticed that tall building.
Jiang Ye's mood, however, remained unperturbed.
Because the information synchronized to him by the chanical eyeballs also included that tall building.
It was an independent tall building, not belonging to any normal city within the Qiankun Land, known as the "Sun and Moon Tower."
The status of the Sun and Moon Tower surpassed that of all normal cities within the Qiankun Land.
In the eyes of sinful Moon People, all Sun People were Superior People.
But in reality, among all Sun People, only those living within that "Sun and Moon Tower" were the true Superior People.
It was no exaggeration to say that the Sun and Moon Tower was equivalent to the sole "imperial palace" of the entire Qiankun Land.
Simultaneously, it also upheld the concept of "the Son of Heaven guarding the nation's gates." The location of the entire Sun and Moon Tower was precisely at the border between the Qiankun Land and the Land of Exile.
When Jiang Ye synchronized the information about the "Sun and Moon Tower" from the chanical eyeballs, he instinctively felt a bit suspicious—
Could the later-era "Doomsday Apartnt" have evolved from that "Sun and Moon Tower"?
Yet now, sitting inside the Mist Train, personally gazing at that tall building from afar…
Jiang Ye was astonished to discover—
The location of his ten thousand Puppet Clones…
Seed to be the top floor of that Sun and Moon Tower?!
So…
And the one who took those ten thousand Puppet Clones was a true Superior Person qualified to ascend the "Sun and Moon Tower"?!
The key point was, the Sun and Moon Tower should also, like the "Doomsday Apartnt," classify players into different ranks according to floors!
Then, what kind of existence could reach the top of the Sun and Moon Tower?!
For a mont, countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Ye's mind.
However, before he could ponder them in detail…
He suddenly felt the Mist Train he was riding in, as if abruptly stepped on by a trendous force, suddenly sink downwards!
Imdiately after, an extrely arrogant voice, as if truly coming from soone standing on top of the train, transmitted:
"Everyone, listen up! All rise!"
