tremor woke the old man. He opened his sleepy eyes and followed the sound. To his astonishment, he saw a stone tablet growing like a tree at a speed visible to the naked eye!This stone tablet, origin...The complete
The latest chapter of Dao World!
Evidently, Huang Qiuyan and Xia Mo also noticed the cultivators around them who were eyeing Jiang Yun's lower abdomen.
Ginger shrugged and said, "I don't know, but if you don't want to get dragged down by me, it's best to keep your distance!"
Before the two could even respond, a rough voice rang in Jiang Yun's ear: "Boy, take off your armor!"
Following the sound, a burly man appeared beside Ginger Cloud and his three companions. Ginger Cloud had a vague recollection of him, recognizing him as one of the Lower Realm cultivators.
Giving the burly man a quick glance, Jiang Yun retracted his gaze and continued addressing Huang Qiuyan and Xia Mo: "Aren't you two leaving yet"
At the end of summer, Xia Mo smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, you said their target is you. As long as we watch and don't interfere, they naturally won't do anything to us, right"
At the end of summer's words, Ginger Cloud was speechless. After a moment's pause, he couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "You're right, then let's go!"
As soon as Gingercloud finished speaking, another voice boomed, "Get going! Today you don't remove your armor, you can't go anywhere!"
Behind Jiang Yun appeared another middle-aged man, his eyes coldly staring at Jiang Yun.
But in the distance, at some unknown time, those indigenous people who originally belonged to this city had already quietly disappeared.
Although there were still many figures on the street, they were all cultivators from the lower realms.
Looking around, there were over a hundred people.
It is obvious that these people were instigated by Dong Chengji to come and seize the lower realm cultivators' armor from Jiang Yun.
However, Jiang Yun could also see that only a small portion of the cultivators were being stirred up. Most of the cultivators had not been tempted.
Especially those cultivators Huang Qiu-yan mentioned earlier that need to be particularly careful of, like Shen Ming-lie, the old beggar, and the Zhao family's four brothers, none of them are here.
These lower-realm cultivators, though they appeared to be scattered at random, in reality each of them had positioned themselves to completely encircle Jiang Yun, blocking off every possible direction he could escape.
From this, it is not difficult to see that these subordinate cultivators are not easygoing people!
Jiang Yun swept his gaze across the multitude of lower realm cultivators, and calmly spoke: "Fellows, I have no grudges with you from the past, nor any grievances in recent days."
"Moreover, we all came from various lower realms, entering the Realm Gate and embarking on this ancient path of striving for power!"
"Since you are all dominant figures in your own realms, high above others, how come after arriving here, you willingly become pawns in the hands of cultivators from the myriad heavens domains, allowing them to manipulate you at will"
Jiang Yun's words can be said to be heartfelt!
It's not that he feared these cultivators, but he truly didn't want to become enemies with them because of the armor transformed from Shizhao.
If it truly came down to a fight for survival, Jiang Yun wouldn't hesitate. But simply to satisfy the Heavenly Bureau's insatiable desires, forcing countless lower realm cultivators to kill each other— such a thankless and arduous task was something Jiang Yun was unwilling and disdainful of doing.
Moreover, once Ginger Cloud makes a move, he himself becomes a pawn as well!
Therefore, he hopes that these cultivators from the lower realms will see the error of their ways and not be misled by others.
It's a pity that Jiang Yun's words apparently didn't have any effect.
That burly man, the first to speak, let out a cold smile and said: “You’re right, we set foot on the ancient path of striving for heaven in pursuit of strength.”
"And now, as long as we obtain your armor, we can move closer to becoming powerful. Why wouldn't we do that"
The middle-aged man also said coldly, "Anyway, when the time comes to pass the final level, we will inevitably have to fight each other. It might as well be decided now."
Ginger Cloud shook his head again, feeling helpless at these cultivators' stubbornness.
"I sighed. Jiang Yun continued, "But there are over a hundred of you. Even if I surrender my armor, wouldn't you still be fighting each other Why bother"
The middle-aged man sneered, "That's our business, you don't need to worry about it!"
Okay!
Jiang Yun nodded, his gaze sweeping over the more than hundred people once again.
Just when everyone thought Jiang Yun was about to make a move, he did something that surprised everyone.
He actually reached out and grabbed the armor on his body, pulled it hard, and ripped it off.
Then, Jiang Yun threw his armor to the ground and said: "Here's the armor, do whatever you want!"
After uttering that sentence, Jiang Yun unexpectedly turned around and completely disregarded the armor. With an air of nonchalance, he strolled along the Zetian Ancient Road beneath his feet, heading forward, leaving behind over a hundred astonished cultivators.
No one expected that after all the words Jiang Yun had said, in the end, he would so decisively throw down his armor and leave with such grace.
Even Dong Chengji, who had been watching from afar the whole time, widened his eyes in astonishment and looked bewildered.
In his estimation, Jiang Yun definitely wouldn't give up such a valuable piece of armor. He should use the armor's protection to fight to the death with countless cultivators.
But he never expected that things would develop completely beyond his expectations.
Wong Chiu-yan and Summer exchanged a glance, then hurriedly followed Ginger Cloud.
And over a hundred cultivators, seeing the armor lying on the ground, for a moment no one dared to move.
They really suspected that there was something fishy about this, wondering if Jiang Yun had done something to his armor within.
Until a moment passed, the strong man finally came to his senses, suddenly reaching out and grabbing at his armor.
And the moment he moved, the middle-aged man and the other cultivators all sprang into action, rushing towards the armor.
But, there was a figure who appeared before them at a faster speed than theirs. With a wave of his sleeve, an invisible pressure spread out, binding each of them and preventing them from moving.
There he is, Dong Chengji!
Since Jiang Yun took off his armor and threw it on the ground, it wouldn't be against the rules for Dong Chengji to pick it up.
And such a good opportunity to show Tianye his loyalty, Dong Chengji would naturally not let it go, nor would he truly help these lower realm cultivators.
With a sweeping glance, he saw the cultivators from his lower realm, who were intimidated and unable to move. They could only stare at him with angry eyes. Dong Chengji smiled slightly: "There's no need for you to look at me with so much hatred. I'm doing this for your own good!"
"Just as Gingercloud said, there is only one armor. You all have so many people. Now that I take the armor, it will prevent you from killing each other!"
After finishing, Dong Chengji didn't rush to take the armor. Instead, he used his divine sense to carefully check the armor. After confirming there were no problems, he then reached out and grasped it, holding it in his hand.
"Haha!"
With the armor in hand, Dong Chengji couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Tomorrow, the final exam will begin. Everyone should prepare in advance. I hope you all do well!"
This sentence was spoken aloud by Dong Chengji, but secretly, he transmitted his voice to all the resentful lower realm cultivators, saying: "Tomorrow, as long as you kill Jiang Yun, I will still ensure that you can pass through the first level of the Heavenly Gate!"
At the same time, they caught up with Jiang Yun and Huang Qiuyan and Xia Mo. The two of them looked puzzled and asked, "Young Master Jiang, did you just throw away your armor"
Jiang Yun smiled and said, "A mere external object is nothing compared to one's own life!"
Upon hearing Ginger Cloud's reply, Huang Qiuyan and Xia Mo, although somewhat unconvinced, had to believe it.
After all, even if Jiang Yun's strength was strong, it was absolutely impossible to be the opponent of over a hundred cultivators.
It's better to give away the armor and defuse the danger than to fight them for it tooth and nail.
In fact, they had no idea that Ginger Cloud wasn't trying to defuse the danger she was in. She truly didn't want them to keep fighting with Stone Swamp and everyone else endlessly, so she had already made arrangements with Stone Swamp.
Anyway, even if Tenno gets the armor, it won't be of any use wearing it.
When it comes time for Tianye to leave, Ishihama only needs to reveal his identity, or simply leave himself, and Tianye won't be able to do anything about it!
Jiang Yun no longer spoke, but instead found a large tree and sat cross-legged beneath it, closing his eyes in wait for the final test of tomorrow.
But just as he had closed his eyes, he had to open them again and look ahead.
There, Zino appeared again! nine-petal flower, sat a figure that was also… himself! This finally made Jiang Yun understand that what he had seen earlier, those senior brothers and sisters, were actually illusions generated by h...
