231 Token of Life
Yang Lujia was sent to another realm. However, this time, it was a different case. This realm was specifically abundant in the rules of life, which would be an advantage on Yang Lujia’s part. However, the problem lay within which or who among the living beings or who had died should be revived.
The Vermillion Bird narrated to him the content of the test. The first test involved reviving the dead. There was even a notification that appeared in front of him, it was akin to the notification he had with Fortuniel—a typical system notification like any other manhwas he had read from Earth.
Seeing this, he was even more astonished. His father could actually set this up.
Could his father have gone to Earth?
That was a question that he did not know. While he could traverse through the void aimlessly and fearlessly, it would still not matter no matter how strong he was. Eventually, his qi reserves would be used up, plus using the rules in the void would be limited to a certain extent.
The void was called the void because it was like an empty space—nothing exists within it except beasts or other creatures naturally born from this emptiness. Other than these beasts, there were also natural void disasters that his grandfather once talked about. They were called the void storms that could cause spatial distortions, which actually happened to him and his team back then when they were coursing through the void from the Realm of Life, Da Shenghou.
As Yang Lujia observed the realm, he was astonished that he could not use any of the rules he comprehended—only the rules of life. The rules of life were so abundant that he might be able to live longer than the usual.
“Host, Fortuniel did not dare come out earlier. Fortuniel sensed an existence that was way above the host’s cultivation. If Fortuniel would try to try to talk to the host, Fortuniel is afraid that he would be discovered by that other party.”
Right before Yang Lujia could step into the city where the rules of life were the most abundant, the voice of Fortuniel entered his mind, rendering him a shock he had never felt before.
There was actually someone who detect Fortuniel’s presence?
“Host, Fortuniel’s level is not enough for him to hide from supreme experts like that other party. Thus, until the host could fulfill the missions given to him by Fortuniel, Fortuniel would stay in a low profile in order not to alert those supreme experts.”
Yang Lujia did not reply. He pondered on what Fortuniel relayed to him. When Fortuniel decided to talk at the moment, he knew that the other party might have already left the area. He had no idea who it was. However, he was certain that the other party was stronger than his grandfather.
His grandfather could not even detect Fortuniel’s presence in his body, and even through physical examination, Zhuquan De did not recognize the system’s presence. Therefore, Yang Lujia was feeling rather frightful of the person to who Fortuniel was referring to.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s first finish the test my father had given me before he left. It looked like I still got a long way to go,” Yang Lujia muttered as he stared solemnly at the bustling city.
It was a very large city. And it was also the only city present in a span of thousands of miles as Yang Lujia checked with his mental perception. There were no other cities other than this one.
“Wait! You cannot enter the city unless you got the Token of Life from City Life Healer!”
Just as he was about to enter the city through the gates, he was stopped by two guards—both wearing green chest-plate armor that was filled with the rules of life—supplying the two guards’ life with endless vitality.
“Token of Life?” Yang Lujia was momentarily stunned and smiled afterward. “I don’t have a Token of Life with me. What can I do to acquire one? Or are there any other alternatives in order for me to be able to enter the city?”
“This…”
The two guards looked at each other. Each of their faces seemed to be spelling trouble. At the very least, Yang Lujia felt like it smelt like one.
“Actually, the Token of Life is not something one can just get. Other than the City Life Healer, no one could really get one—unless their strength was on par with City Life Healer. Moreover, it is convenient for the City Life Healer to meet any guests at the moment. We apologize, young brother, but we really don’t have any other choice but to abide by the rules.”
SIGH.
Yang Lujia then looked elsewhere for a moment and told the two guards his intention. “Tell me, do you how the City Life Healer could get the Token of Life?”
The two guards looked at each other again and nodded—tacitly agreeing to tell Yang Lujia about this certain matter. “Young brother, we don’t know the extent of your strength, but it is really hard to get one Token of Life if you would not seek the help of the City Life Healer.”
“Just tell me how to get one. I won’t dare do it if it’s really that dangerous.”
Yang Lujia was quite satisfied that they had shown him so far. These two guards were not arrogant and even talked to him leisurely while they took turns letting the natives of the city pass through the gates.
“This…” one guard blurted out, seemingly hesitating about such an important matter.
All soldiers of the city were told of that method, but they were prohibited from doing so—unless they wanted to end their lives already. Otherwise, they better not get near that place where the Token of Life could be found.
“Where is it? Where can I find one?” Yang Lujia questioned, repeating his intentions to know about this Token of Life.
He had seen others bring their tokens when they got in earlier. They were just like a small pieces of the hexagonal metal plane that was emitting the rules of life.
Then, why would these two guards seem to be worried about him pursuing this small piece of the token? What could their reason be?
