Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 2265: Black-clothed Cultivator

Swish! Several people suddenly appeared in the opening. They all wore grey clothing carrying weapons on their backs. They had both blades and swords, there was also one carrying a pole in his hand.

As they looked at the open area, a person with a broadsword opened his mouth and said, “Something happened here. It’s quite a huge battle. There should be six people. If I’m not mistaken, five of them should be the Spring Breeze Bears.”

Someone on the side asked in a confused tone, “Big Brother, these Spring Breeze Bears, aren’t they the famous cultivators from Springwind City? They aren’t good people. They’re very good at robbing. Who knows how many cultivators they robbed. I heard that they rarely leave living witnesses.”

The person leading the group nodded and said, “Correct, it’s those five.”

The man who spoke before looked at him and said, “Big Brother, is it really them? Aren’t they body cultivators? There’s a strong aura of thunder and lightning here. Could it be that they used a powerful thunder talisman?”

The leader shook his head and said, “They didn’t. If I’m not wrong, the Spring Breeze Bears should have a combat formation called the Five Thunder Formation. Using this formation, the five of them can produce tribulation lightning to attack. Even Teleportation Stage Cultivators would suffer if they were hit by this.”

After looking around, the other person said, “Although there is the aura of thunder and lightning, I don’t feel any fluctuations indicating that it hit something. From the fluctuations, the battle didn’t last long. And from the smell of blood, the Spring Breeze Bears should have suffered greatly. Despite using the Five Thunder Formation, they still suffered. Could the other party be a Teleportation Stage Expert?”

Hearing this, the leader shook his head and said, “Impossible. Although the Five Spring Bears have a formation that could threaten a Teleportation Stage Expert, they shouldn’t be so bold to attack one. Teleportation Experts could detect the formation ahead of time. They would never fall for their attack. Moreover, from what you can see, the tribulation lightning didn’t hit anything, it seems to be absorbed. Most importantly, there is a killing aura here that hasn’t dissipated. From the killing aura, it seems to be a blade user. There is only one move made. What an amazing technique. One blade and the five bears are defeated.”

After saying this, the leader of the group closed his eyes. He was feeling the changes of spiritual qi in the surroundings. And from the remaining qi, he could deduce the flow of the battle.

When he heard this, the other person couldn’t help but be stunned. Not only him, but the rest of the group were shocked as well. Then a deep-voiced man said, “Big Brother, who has such strength to defeat the Spring Breeze Bears with just one blade? Is it someone from the Rogue Cultivator List?”

The Rogue Cultivator List mentioned was a list of notable rogue cultivators in the Forbidden Path Sect’s domain. These Rogue Cultivators share one detail, all of them were at the Earth Monarch Stage. Moreover, they are all very strong.

The leader shook his head and said, “It’s not. Our Shadow Hall specializes in intelligence gathering and selling information. The Rogue Cultivator List came from us. I have seen the people in the list and none of them have this aura. I’m sure that I haven’t met this person before.”

The cultivator from before replied, “Big Brother, I heard that the Forbidden Path Sect has invited our Shadow Hall to help them collect information on powerful rogue cultivators. It seems like they want to invite them to join the sect. Is it true?”

The leader nodded, “The top ten in the list have received the notice of the Forbidden Path Sect. They can join the sect without undergoing assessment.”

The cultivator said, “So it’s true. Big Brother, should we use this opportunity to join the Forbidden Path Sect?”

The leader looked at the cultivator and then shook his head, “It’s difficult. Moreover, do you think it’s over once you join the Forbidden Path Sect? Let me tell you, joining the sect is just the beginning. The Forbidden Path Sect isn’t like the other sects. The Sect’s External Hall has a list of disciples. If you join the External Hall and be among the last 100 for three consecutive years, you will be demoted to the Miscellaneous Hall. Disciples in the Miscellaneous Hall are more pitiful than rogue cultivators. They are treated harshly and have endless tasks to do every day. They won’t have any time to cultivate, which makes it harder for them to increase their strength and status. Entering the Inner Hall from the External Hall in the Forbidden Path Sect is as difficult as breaking through to the Teleportation Stage from the Earth Monarch Stage.”

When the others heard this, they couldn’t help but stare. Although they grew up in the Forbidden Path Sect’s domain since childhood, they have very little understanding regarding the sect. To them, the Forbidden Path Sect was a mysterious entity. Gangs and forces under the sect didn’t dare to inquire about the sect, because it was taboo. If the sect found out that they were looking into the sect, their entire families would be exterminated.

In addition to its strength, their constant killing and exterminations of misbehaving subordinates made it certain that nobody looks into the Forbidden Path Sect.

The group’s leader looked at everyone and said, “Alright, let’s not talk about this. Otherwise, we’ll have to look out for the Forbidden Path Sect. We came to Gale Canyon to look at the strength of the rogue cultivators. Finding this one wouldn’t be easy, we need to head further inside.” Everyone complied and proceeded to walk.

Not long after the group left, Zhao Hai reappeared. Looking at their backs, he knit his brows and said, “Shadow Hall? Interesting. This place actually has this kind of organization. Even the Forbidden Path Sect asks them for help. It seems like things are developing quickly. I didn’t expect the sect to actually begin absorbing powerful rogue cultivators.”

As he thought that, Zhao Hai smiled at the group before vanishing from sight. The group already has liquid silver dust on them. Their every action would now be monitored by Zhao Hai. They cannot escape even if they want to.

However, Zhao Hai wasn’t in the mood to monitor them, being able to at any time was already enough. Zhao Hai tagged these people to know the strong rogue cultivators in the Forbidden Path Sect’s territory. R̃ἈƝŎʙĘŠ

After walking more than ten kilometers, Zhao Hai was now in a forested area. Beasts could be seen from time to time. These beasts weren’t very strong, they practically had no value. Zhao Hai was too lazy to move against them. He just took a few beasts for the Space and kept walking forward.

As he walked, Zhao Hai recalled the map he had about Gale Canyon. He should be in Spirit Ape Forest. According to legend, this forest had Spirit Apes that were as strong as Soul Fusion Cultivators, they were also quite good at combat.

Unfortunately for the Spirit Apes, their inner core could help cultivate spiritual force. It was precisely because of this that the Spirit Apes were hunted down to extinction.

Now, Spirit Ape Forest has become an ordinary forest at the entrance of Gale Canyon. There were no medicinal herbs or ores left in the forest, just ordinary grass and trees. It could be said that this place has become a wasteland.

Zhao Hai didn’t pay attention to these. He enjoyed the view as he walked. Even so, he was attacked five times on his first day. Now all these people have turned into Undead for the Space.

Although all those robberies weren’t successful, they also allowed Zhao Hai to see the chaos of Gale Canyon. It was even more chaotic than what everyone said.

However, the canyon was quite safe at night because cultivators would cultivate. Beasts that pose a threat to cultivators have little value, and almost all of them had been hunted down. Therefore, nothing happened at night. Zhao Hai also started a fire and meditated until dawn. All night, nobody came to cause any trouble.

The next morning, Zhao Hai ate something before heading out. His target was Gale Canyon’s forbidden area, Strong Ape Mountain.

Strong Ape Mountain was the first forbidden area in Gale Canyon. The mountain hosts a group of apes that almost had infinite strength as well as impenetrable defense. Most importantly, the apes lived in groups and some of them were at the Teleportation Stage Strength. Once these apes reach the Teleportation Stage, they gain spiritual wisdom making them as smart as humans. They were all amazingly talented and could defeat humans at the Teleportation Stage. These apes were extremely territorial. Anyone who trespasses their home will be regarded as an enemy. After multiple clashes with cultivators, Strong Ape Mountain slowly became one of the forbidden areas in Gale Canyon.

Fortunately, Strong Apes don’t leave their mountain. Otherwise, the cultivators would have to wage full war against the apes.

Zhao Hai wanted to go to Strong Ape Mountain because the Space didn’t have any Strong Apes. He wanted to seize a couple for the Space.

As Zhao Hai got closer and closer to Strong Ape Mountain, he discovered the vegetation becoming more and more lush. It was evident that only a few people came to this area. Zhao Hai even saw a few medicinal herbs. In the beginning areas of Gale Canyon, this was an almost impossible sight.

Zhao Hai didn’t care about these spiritual herbs. The Space already has a lot of these herbs. Ever since he arrived at the True Spirit Realm, Zhao Hai never stopped collecting herbs. He could even issue missions to collect various herbs and people would flock to complete it. 

Because of this, common spiritual herbs no longer have any attraction to Zhao Hai. He just gave them a glance and walked by them. 

At this time, a loud explosion was heard from Strong Ape Mountain. Then a roar was heard. Along with the roar was the grunt of a person. It was clear that an ape and a human were fighting.

Zhao Hai couldn’t help but stop when he heard the commotion. Then his expression turned serious. He could hear that the ape was quite strong, at least at the Teleportation Stage.

At the same time, the cultivator fighting the ape was also at the Teleportation Stage. However, his strength was clearly not stronger than the Strong Ape. However, he was still able to contend with the ape for some time. This was because Strong Apes rely purely on their instincts. The human cultivator has techniques and artifacts to help him.

Naturally, this wasn’t the only reason why Zhao Hai was stunned. The reason Zhao Hai’s face became serious was because he felt that the person was familiar. After an analysis of the Space, that person seems to be the black-clothed cultivator from the auction.

The identity of the Black-clothed cultivator from Windrange Auction was still a mystery. Even Ling Dong told Zhao Hai that the intelligence network of the Forbidden Path Sect hasn’t found out who this guy was. 

The ability to stay unknown in the Forbidden Path Sect’s domain meant that the black-clothed cultivator’s identity wasn’t simple. Now this person has appeared in Gale Canyon, which surprised Zhao Hai. Why was this person here? Despite the questions in his mind, Zhao Hai continued moving forward. He would soon know if this person was here by coincidence or if it was intentional.

As Zhao Hai got closer and closer to the fight, a roar from the ape followed by a muffled snort was heard. Then the sounds of fighting disappeared. Then Zhao Hai saw a figure fly out of Strong Ape Mountain and shot into the distance.

Another roar spread from Strong Ape Mountain. This time, the roar was especially loud. It was as if the ape was showing its might and warning any intruders. However, it didn’t chase the black-clothed cultivator.

The figure flying in the sky also noticed Zhao Hai. Just as Zhao Hai thought, it was the black-clothed cultivator from the auction. But this time, there was a huge fist print on his robe.
