Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1508 - 17: Twelve Wandering Gods, Hidden Laws Within Laws, Imperial Fellow!
It's indeed beneficial to leave things to friends... Zhao Xing thought.
The task for the Treasure Mountain Skill now has some leads.
"He was also unfortunate to end up in Erliang Slope." Zhao Xing clicked his tongue.
Erliangpo Prison is quite special; regardless of your divine skills or realm, once you enter that prison, you weigh only two taels.
Martial artists in the Ascension Realm are already quite large, and those in the Origin Realm are even as big as mountains.
Even in the Tao Domain Realm, no matter if you're a Master, your size isn't small either.
Once inside, they weigh only two taels; it's truly unbearable.
However, at this moment, Zhao Xing had no thoughts at all.
Erliangpo Prison is mobile; it's always carried by some great figure.
Everyone is just two taels, so the prison isn't big; it's just a ring worn on a hand.
Breaking someone out of prison? Impossible.
The only option is to wait until Wu Tian is transferred and his status drops from a high-security convict.
"Why did you think of coming here to explore?" Zhao Xing asked.
"One always needs to see the world," Jing Yan said, "I've been away from home for a thousand years, just to travel across the countries in the Xuanling Star Domain."
"How does it look?" Zhao Xing asked.
"Not so great," Jing Yan laughed, "Many of the ancient countries' capitals are dilapidated; home is still better."
Zhao Xing just smiled it off.
Only Imperial people dare to say the ancient countries' capitals are rundown.
But it's true, many statistics in the Ancient Kingdoms Alliance have to exclude the Red Star Empire.
Whether it's population stats, the construction of void routes, production of various treasures, the consumption of divine weapons and Daoist soldiers, if you include the Red Star Empire, the averages become outrageous.
The Red Star Empire is constantly cultivating life star systems artificially. If the empire's data is included, the number of life star systems in the entire Xuanling Star Domain is always increasing!
Exclude it, and it's decreasing.
If the Red Star Empire is included, the Xuanling Star Domain isn't desolate at all!
There's a piece of data Zhao Xing remembers clearly: the number of precious plant lives above royal rank, with the Red Star Empire accounting for 70%!
Why so impressive? Because the Self Sect's Minister of Agriculture in the Red Star Empire is the strongest, and it's also the congregation site of the Self Sect.
"Alright, enough about home; talking too much makes me homesick," Jing Yan patted his face, "Do you want to explore other places with me, old pal?"
"The Star Wheel Maze has been seen by many; I've visited Nanluo No. 88 every ten years for fifty years and haven't figured much out. Better to explore other places, like Crescent Mountain; maybe I can find the entrance."
Through these days of interaction, Jing Yan truly regarded Zhao Xing as a friend.
"I could, but I'm in trouble, and I'm afraid of implicating you," Zhao Xing said.
"What trouble? Who did you offend?" Jing Yan asked.
"A Tao Domain Realm," Zhao Xing replied.
"Mr. Zhao, you really aren't simple," Jing Yan exclaimed, "To offend a Tao Domain Realm, you're no ordinary talent."
"But since you're still daring to walk around outside, that means the trouble has a limit?"
In Jing Yan's understanding, those in the Tao Domain Realm have influence and wouldn't easily act personally.
"The Third Realm can take action against me," Zhao Xing nodded.
"Oh, that's all?" Jing Yan said nonchalantly, "With our combined efforts, we can surely face the Third Realm without a problem for survival."
"Besides, I'm from the Empire; they wouldn't dare kill me rashly; they might hesitate."
"If things really don't work out, I could at least collect your body."
"Hahaha."
Hearing this from Jing Yan, Zhao Xing didn't hesitate and immediately said, "Since you say so, why wouldn't I agree?"
"Since Brother Jing is willing to take me to prosper, extending the Yuan Shou, I'm certainly delighted; but don't rush to leave yet."
"I've seen some patterns in the Star Wheel Maze too."
"Oh?" Jing Yan got interested, "What do you mean?"
Zhao Xing led Jing Yan to a high mountain lookout.
"The maze in the Star Wheel Maze is the first checkpoint."
"Everyone suspects there's a tomb here, but they just can't find the entrance."
"Nanluo No. 88 is an advanced Star Land; reckless blasting won't work. When will they find it? Many in the Third Realm couldn't figure it out and left."
"The maze is difficult because it's impossible to determine the direction; once you go in a cycle, you come out from another exit. During exploration, you'll also encounter Guardian Beasts and Guardian Tomb Puppets, making the cost-to-benefit ratio of exploring here low."
"True," Jing Yan nodded, "Exhaustive methods are useless for the Star Wheel Maze; it's indeed a tough nut to crack."
"But if I can determine the direction, and with Brother Jing's expertise in Mechanical Arrays, the tomb might open." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Jing Yan looked at Zhao Xing, "You can determine the direction? Both my Starry Sky Instrument and Earth Veins Instrument are all scrambled."
"I can," Zhao Xing nodded confidently; he had the map function on his panel, where the coordinates could determine the direction.
The map can't directly help him find the entrance, but determining the direction is a huge help!
In the past two hundred years, Zhao Xing often encountered strange tombs where yin and yang were indiscernible, and the Five Elements were missing, but he improved efficiency by using the map to determine the direction.
"Then let's do it!" Jing Yan exclaimed excitedly, "I thought I'd get lucky coming to the Star Wheel Maze this year, didn't expect it to be with you, hahaha."
A Third Realm's tomb is certainly a temptation for Jing Yan.
Mechanical Masters have money, but they also lack money!
Especially in the Daoist Soldier Sect, the demand for money is even greater!
Jing Yan also loves adventure, and the two hit it off immediately, starting their journey through the Star Wheel Maze.
...
Just as the two entered the Star Wheel Maze, a large Boundary Boat landed on the Western Continent of Nanluo No. 88.
