Chapter 2648 - 21: In Memory of Marquis Wu’an

Although Jiang Wang couldn’t understand the gibberish demon language spoken by the two little monsters, the communication nevertheless proceeded smoothly.

To prevent collusion, he didn’t allow the two little monsters to speak at all, keeping them back to back, answering his questions only with nods or shakes of the head.

At this point, he had no means to contact the Human Race side; he could only rely on himself to save himself.

The Taixu Illusion Realm was fundamentally impossible to connect with, as it hadn’t even fully covered the present world, let alone stretch into the Monster Realm.

He had indeed thought about whether he could try to contact Senior Guan Yan through the Yuheng Star Tower. Previously, communication with Senior Guan Yan had always taken place in the part of the present world closest to the Star Vault. With his current cultivation, he also had the qualification to send his voice across the universe, using the Star Tower to expound Dao. Would it be possible to directly contact Yuheng’s main star through the Yuheng Star Tower?

The position of Star Monarch, using the light of Yuheng, connected the Myriad Heavens and Worlds, not only providing guidance but also assisting in notifying the Human Race in the present world.

Relying on himself to escape from the clutches of death is indeed extremely difficult. However, if the Qi Country side were to cooperate accordingly, it could be much more straightforward. It’s possible, even, that Senior Guan Yan might be able to point him to a good location, directly transferring him to Yuheng’s main star, and then returning to the present world via Seven Stars Valley...

But ultimately, this beautiful idea remains just a thought. The Monster Realm is inherently different from the present world, fundamentally a deeply developed, independent grand world by the Demon clan.

He stands in the Starlight Holy Tower of the ancient Star Dome, not easily reachable.

Unless he enters a battle state, like in Frost Wind Valley, directly summoning the Star Tower to project into this world. Otherwise, it’s difficult to manifest silently within the Star Tower as in the present world, cultivating in the Starlight Holy Tower, let alone accomplishing anything through it.

But under the current circumstances, forcibly summoning the Star Tower to project into this world would be inviting quick death.

Just one Heavenly Demon’s gaze falling upon him, and he could bid farewell to this world.

Taking a step back, even if he risked summoning the Star Tower, taking one last gamble... Senior Guan Yan and Little Nagging Old Lady are always traveling across realms, and now who knows where they’ve gone, it’s uncertain when they might receive his plea for help. Let alone waiting years later, when Senior Guan Yan’s formidable presence arrives, the Yuheng Star Tower illuminating the Monster Realm, his grave may already have grass three feet high.

With the simple map drawn by the monkey monster and horse monster, Jiang Wang finally gained a general understanding of where he was.

Beyond this Frost Wind Valley, opposing the Human Race’s Flame Prison City and Iron Rock City, there are three great Demon clan cities.

The names of the three great Demon clan cities are unknown, as the language of the two little monsters is incomprehensible, and neither of them possesses the skill to write Taoist Text.

However, he managed to record the pronunciation, adding a bit to his Demon Language vocabulary.

These three great Demon clan cities each have formidable armies stationed, with a total of fifteen Demon Kings among them. The farthest city even has a True Monster overseeing it.

Jiang Wang secretly remembered the location of that city, definitely avoiding it.

As for his current position, it’s to the east-southeast of the Demon clan city directly facing Frost Wind Valley... he could distance himself even further.

Intelligence... stops here.

These two little monsters’ knowledge is appallingly poor. Since birth, they have only lived within the area covered by these three cities.

They couldn’t even point out the location of a fourth Demon clan city.

They are complete illiterates.

Among the Human Race, any Transcendent Cultivator wouldn’t be so ignorant about the world. Who among them wouldn’t casually grasp information about powerful individuals and countries?

Even the common folk in the streets can speak knowledgeably about national affairs.

Of course, to the Human Race, cultivators in the Circulation Realm are considered "Transcendent," and even if useless, anywhere they are, they’re regarded as "masters." Meanwhile, little monsters born with Natural Dao Veins are already at the lowest level of the Demon clan.

To better strategize for hiding, Jiang Wang is indeed curious about the societal structure of the Demon clan, but unfortunately, these two little monsters cannot satisfy his curiosity.

Raising his hand, he killed these two Demon Clan Warriors and used Samadhi True Fire to burn away all traces. Using the Dream Order, he replicated the simple map they had drawn, preparing to gradually adjust the map details in the journey ahead.

If possible, he should learn some Demon Language, but now is clearly not the right time.

What’s urgent now is to first find a relatively safe place to hide and heal his injuries.

He doesn’t plan to go to places outside the known map. He’s even more reluctant to approach Demon clan cities; the Monster Realm is dangerous everywhere for him.

The best choice, of course, is deep within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.

And within the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, where there is both the boundary of heaven and earth, yet not a passage like Frost Wind Valley, where there aren’t many Demon clan experts active.

Remote mountains and forests are good for hiding.

According to the two little monsters, the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains are also a fiercely dangerous place for their Demon kind, with scarcely any demon footprints. How fierce or dangerous it is doesn’t matter; what matters is the scant demon presence.

Compared to the dangers of the Demon clan, the dangers of perilous lands and treacherous grounds are evidently much milder.

Perhaps he might even find some Spiritual Medicine of heaven and earth. He has some knowledge of herbal gathering from childhood.

The stronger a cultivator is, the harder it is to recover when injured.

With his Golden Frame and Jade Marrow injured to this extent, relying on the healing medicine he carried alone is utterly futile.
