Chapter 132 Entering the Azure Realm
At this moment, the Demon Lord looked at Gu Yuchuan with a degree of satisfaction.
"Not bad, your Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique is quite good. There doesn't seem to be any problem with it, which greatly reduces the chance of being discovered. Go on, do your job well. If you succeed, I guarantee you a very satisfactory reward."
After bowing, Gu Yuchuan jumped into the teleportation array. The next second, he felt dizzy and disoriented. At that moment, it was as if time and space had disappeared, and everything was still. After a long time, light appeared in front of him again. He had finally arrived in the Canglan Realm.
As soon as he landed, he started vomiting. The dizzying sensation was unbearable even for a Foundation Establishment cultivator like him. It took him about an incense stick's time to recover. In front of him was a whole field of wheat. He wasn't in Heyang City, but he really couldn't figure out where he was.
Although he learned a lot about the surrounding geography from the Soul-Capturing Technique, it was all theoretical and he couldn't really make a good judgment without actually seeing it.
However, he wasn't going to Heyang City. He already knew enough about it, and besides, it was one of the forty-eight cities, extremely dangerous. It was easy to get in but difficult to get out, so he wasn't going. What he wanted to do this time was to go to the Immortal Path's territory and plan some things there. However, he didn't immediately go to find someone to gather information. Instead, he set up a maze and began to simulate the location. Every time he simulated the landing location, there was an error. To be more accurate, he planned to simulate it again after arriving here.
[Congratulations, host, on starting the twenty-fourth simulation. We will now begin drawing talents.]
[Ring ring, ring ring, the alarm clock is ringing, reminding the host to wash their hands before drawing the card.]
Given the current circumstances, there's no need for another bath and incense burning. Besides, he's here to find a way out, so he doesn't care what talent he draws. He might as well just start simulating it directly.
[White Talent: Scale Enhancement; White Talent: Swiftness; White Talent: Strength.]
He had just drawn a purple talent, so these three white ones were only to be expected. He didn't feel upset at all; his current talents were sufficient for the time being, and he wasn't particularly lacking in any areas. He randomly chose one and started the simulation.
On the first day, you found a spirit servant managing the wheat fields. You killed him, and under his influence, learned about the current geography. You then began your journey in the opposite direction from the immortals' stronghold.
The next day, you were stopped on the road by the officials in charge. Their "Heavenly Eye" discovered you had no identity and demanded you reveal your origins. You fabricated an identity, saying you were from the countryside visiting relatives. Even in a technologically advanced world, countless ordinary people lack cultivation talent, and the fact that many rural people don't have registered identities isn't a big deal. You dispelled their suspicions and obtained an identity token.
On the third day, you sensed that someone was constantly observing you. It seemed that yesterday's actions hadn't completely dispelled their suspicions. You had no choice but to change your plans and head to a nearby rural village. Using your magic, you pretended to be a distant relative of a family, thus temporarily escaping danger.
On the fourth day, you notice that while the surveillance around you has decreased, it's still present. Knowing the dangers of exposure, you can only become even more cautious and hide more carefully.
On the fifth day, the other party hadn't completely left, and you were starting to feel anxious.
……
On the eighth day, one of their people was still monitoring you. You realized that you must have been exposed somewhere; otherwise, they wouldn't have spent so much time on you, given their busy schedules. You immediately took action, using clones and invisibility to escape. You abandoned your original appearance and used the Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique to transform yourself into a middle-aged man. These are the only two forms you can currently master with this technique.
[On the ninth day, you successfully escaped, but a warrant for your arrest in your original form has been issued. You continue your journey, hoping to reach the territory of the Immortal Path as soon as possible, but the Canglan Realm is a proper minor world, vast in area, and you dare not use Immortal Path methods to fly; your speed remains extremely slow.]
On the tenth day, you encountered a group of cultivators robbing you and were forced to use your immortal techniques. You killed them, but shortly after, the local officials, aware of the immortal techniques used there, immediately began a thorough investigation. Under the watchful eyes of the heavens, you were still exposed.
[On the eleventh day, you began your death throes, but as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, your strength was still too weak, and you ultimately died here.]
Gu Yuchuan sighed deeply. He hadn't expected to be exposed this time. It seemed he had underestimated the Heavenly Eye and officials of the Canglan Realm. He wondered how they had figured out he was suspicious after just one meeting, and how they had investigated him for so many days. He himself still didn't know where the problem lay.
Outwardly, he was just an ordinary human, showing no signs of immortality or demonic aura. There couldn't be anything wrong with him, otherwise the other party would have taken action immediately instead of observing him for so many days.
Forget it, let's take a look at what we learned from this simulation first.
[This simulation has ended. Survival time: eleven days. Cultivation level: Foundation Establishment Level 6. Bloodline: Mid-grade Spirit Beast, Viper. Evaluation: A little snake beginning its journey to becoming a powerful being. However, there are some things you shouldn't get involved in. Reward: 55 Dragon Points (55 points for eleven days of survival).]
[Rewards available for redemption this time: Soul Stealing result (50 Dragon Points). Redeem now?]
Fortunately, the results of this Soul-Seizing event were still redeemable, so he immediately chose to redeem them. In the Soul-Seizing event's message, he found the reason why he had been exposed. It turned out that this Spirit Valuer actually held an official position. He killed the other party, and in the dark, he was marked. All officials who saw him would think he was an enemy.
Good heavens, is this the world of technology? Their control over the world is truly impressive. Their leaders may not be as powerful as those in the Azure Cloud Realm, but their control over the world is far superior to that of the Demon Lord. However, this has its advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that with more control, it is less likely for anything to go wrong. The disadvantage is that controlling everything can easily turn the world into a stagnant pool, making it difficult for any changes to occur. In the long run, this is indeed detrimental to the development of the world.
He breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he couldn't kill the spirit master nearby. However, he had already learned all the information he needed from the Soul-Seizing Technique, so it didn't matter. He could just set off directly.
