Chapter Forty-Three: The Secret of the Beast

erful figure emerging, for the Fenglin City Academy, it is not just a boost to reputation.Previously, Wanjiang City had dominated the top three cities for five years running. However, after my interve...These two figures in black robes are probably the "guards" of the Pine Forest Beast Nest. They were idly chatting, seemingly discussing some prominent young talents from their Xu country.

Jiang Wang didn't listen carefully. He held his breath throughout the entire conversation, keeping a close eye on the two people. The moment they were discovered, he would immediately step in to subdue them.

To speak frankly, this tactic of seeking refuge in trees whenever trouble arose was unbecoming of his current cultivation level. However, the rudimentary concealment arts he possessed were hardly worth using; they would only reveal traces of magical energy and expose him unnecessarily.

The three effects of An Yi's abilities can correspond to those of powerful spiritual realm experts. Using them at this time would inevitably feel like using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken.

While hiding within the crimson makeup mirror is a better choice, Jiang Wang hasn't trusted Yin Guan enough to expose all her cards yet.

After all, he didn't agree to join the Hell No Gate. Even if he did, those few positions of King Yanmo were just recently vacated.

Be careful not to make any mistakes, and at this time, he can afford the risk of being discovered.

Jiang Wang pondered in his heart, he was going to prepare a stealth art. He had actually thought about this a long time ago, but after obtaining the Invisibility Cloak, he completely let it go. But now that he thought about it, although the Invisibility Cloak is useful, one also has to consider how to deal with different situations.

Perhaps it was Jiang Wang's luck, or perhaps the good fortune of these two guards. They didn't seem to have expected anyone to infiltrate the pine forest, so they didn't pay much attention to their surroundings. Jiang Wang was right above them, yet no one looked up.

After the two guards left, Yin Guan appeared again.

Jiang Wang couldn't see through his methods from beginning to end. The gap in cultivation was temporarily pulled very wide.

"It's quite surprising, you don't even possess a decent disguise technique."

>

Yin Guan, with a handsome face, is quite disappointing when he speaks. He's very direct and not very polite.

Of course, with his ability, he doesn't need to be very good at talking.

"Oh, I rarely need to hide." Jiang Wang replied casually.

This is mocking Yin Guan for being a fugitive on the run all the time as an assassin.

He became increasingly close to Yin Guan, so he occasionally made jokes with him.

Yin Guan was taken aback by the ridicule.

After all, not everyone has the guts to joke with King Qin Guang.

"I was going to pass on my secret techniques for stealth to you, but it seems you don't need them." Yin Guan said in a calm voice.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Jiang Wang curled his lip, he didn't believe it at all.

Someone like Yin Guan would never casually bestow kindness or goodness upon others. If he were to one day truly teach Jiang Wang a secret art of stealth, it would definitely be because Jiang Wang had done something worthy of receiving such a skill.

So Yin Guan is also joking with him now, waiting for him to apologize and fawn over her, then coldly rejecting him.

I guess it's just that I haven't really joked around with people in a while, so it came out a bit awkward and unrealistic.

Although she knew the truth in her heart, Jiang Wang still pretended to be surprised and said, “Actually, I often need to hide!”

Yin Guan glanced at him lightly and said, "Follow me."

It was obvious that Jiang Wang's "performance" was too superficial, causing him to lose the rare interest in making jokes.

Smart people are like that, plain and uninteresting, because they can see through things too easily. Sometimes they want to comfort themselves, but they can't even do that.

He followed far behind the two guards as they walked deep into the pine forest. The journey was uneventful, and the powerful aura of the divine being was completely unnoticeable to these two mere guards.

In this grove of pine trees, ferocious beasts are everywhere, and there are many kinds. But all the ferocious beasts encountered along the way, even each other, would suddenly fight each other, but they all ignored the two guards.

Savage beasts have no reason, only the instinct to kill, but humans still have many ways to control them.

For example, the belongings on two guards, such as Yin Guan's more direct and decisive power suppression.

Over a long distance, it was a primal environment inhabited by ferocious beasts.

But after reaching the center of the pine forest, Jiang Wang saw signs of human activity.

There was a massive underground cave opening, and packs of ferocious beasts were going down into the earth through the opening.

Even the bloodthirsty beasts, at this time, were very docile and "well-behaved".

Five monks, each holding a custom-made long whip, stood outside the cave. Whenever a ferocious beast agitated, they would lash it with their whips. After being whipped, the beasts would immediately become docile.

These long whips seem to have some kind of restriction placed upon them.

Jiang Wang noticed that these ferocious beasts had powerful auras, far fiercer than the other beasts scattered in the pine forest. They were probably carefully selected to be driven here.

The two guards and the whip-wielding monks exchanged a few words, then followed the beasts into the cave after they had all entered.

“Two choices,” Yin Guan said in a low voice. “I kill them, or you knock them unconscious.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Wang had already activated his seal.

From the void, a black chain shot out like lightning. With a single turn, it bound all five whip-wielding cultivators together.

It is precisely the Legalist secret art passed down from Yue Leng, one of the top ten shackles known as the Shackles of Confinement.

Jiang Wang leaped forward, directly suppressing them with his power and forcefully sealing their Dao Yuan and five senses.

Throughout the entire process, these cultivators were completely unable to put up any resistance.

"Disciple" Yin Guan clearly recognized Yue Leng's secret art, his expression a mixture of amusement and disbelief.

“No.” Jiang Wang waved his hand. “The rewards for the Green Cards were, for convenience's sake, not brought back to Linzi.”

Yin Guan said nothing more, and walked directly into the entrance of the underground cave.

If it were earlier, knowing that the ferocious beast with great harm was artificially created, Jiang Wang would most likely harbor killing intent towards these guards.

But now he knows, the lair of the ferocious beasts is a resource, related to the birth of the Kai脈丹. These guarding cultivators are just following orders. Even they are doing this with the will to be loyal and responsible. It's hard to measure right from wrong.

To say one is innocent doesn't necessarily mean they are. But there seems to be no reason for them to be guilty either.

When Yin Guan presented two choices, Jiang Wang unconsciously made a move. It could also be considered a choice from the heart.

The two of them walked down the underground entrance, occasionally illuminated by fire pits along the way.

Such a scene reminded Jiang Wang of the subterranean caverns of Fulu, of the inscription of Qinghuo, of the celestial beasts in the ethereal heavens. He even suddenly thought, could there also be a realm of ethereal heavens deep within the earth of this world Hiding many greedy and covetous eyes...

Finally, following this pack of ferocious beasts, they entered a huge cave.

Most of the cave was covered by an intricate formation of complex arrays.

The pack of beasts walked into the formation one after another, lying down obediently on the ground.

A cultivator of the Inner Court Realm guarded outside the formation.

Two guards approached and whispered something to each other.

Yin Guan and Jiang Wang hid outside the cave, not going inside. Because the inside of the cave was very open and there was nowhere to hide.

Jiang Wang looked at him, the meaning of his inquiry was very clear. What should they do next Should they just barge in

Yin Guan did not speak, only raising his two fingers. A flash of green flame passed before Jiang Wang's eyes.

Jiang Wang's eyes flickered, and the things before him changed. He gained a second perspective beyond his own.

He saw the entire vast cavern, the face of the Xu Guonfu cultivator, the specific arrangement of the entire formation, and those ferocious beasts lying quietly within the formation. So clear.

This is the perspective of one of the guards!

Astonishing techniques!

But Jiang Wang didn't have time to express his amazement, because in the next moment he saw two cultivators pushing a prison cart from the other side of the cave.

>A senior citizen was locked inside a prison van.

He is not a human.

He was almost exactly like a human, but on his forehead, he had a single, dark horn.

He is a demon! you'd like me to translate!But Jiang Wang spoke in a voice clearer and louder than his: "I remember you too! I remember your face, I remember that you are the leader of the Numinous Whale Gang. Your...
