Destiny is ashes

Chapter 60: A New World, a Fairy City like a Mountain

The huge ship slowly descended and fell towards the shadow in the distance.

As the immortal warship landed, the dust and haze between heaven and earth disappeared, and a giant spiritual city standing between heaven and earth appeared in a corner of the earth.

Soaring towers, majestic buildings and steel buildings that are more spectacular than mountains make up this magnificent fairy city that is otherworldly.

The battleship is landing.

In the city, dense flying lights lit up, like a swarm of bees, as if welcoming.

An Jing was stunned for a long time, watching the warship disappear into the distant sky and sink into the shadow of the city.

It was not until the dark clouds in the sky gathered again, turning the entire wilderness into darkness, that he reacted and took a deep breath: "What is this?! There is even a warship!"

In the desolate mountains and wilderness, the warriors from the Huaixu Realm were shocked by the worldview and style that transcended their cognition, and were so shocked that they could not move.

When the broken clouds closed and the hazy dust and fog covered the whole world again, and the Xiandao battleship landed completely behind the city, An Jing wiped the cold sweat from his head and sat on a rock beside him.

He pondered over it carefully.

"What kind of world is this?"

Still looking at the direction of the distant city, An Jing tried his best to calm himself down: "Although when I saw the musket and the spiritual light gun, I already knew that the technology in this world is not low."

"But, this is obviously not a 'not low' level, but an 'extremely high' level!"

"Yes, it is a very sophisticated magic weapon for war. Only a large sect can forge it." In his mind, the sword spirit also agreed: "However, what I asked you to be careful of just now is the cultivator inside."

"There is a Jindan Zhenjun who has probably achieved the [Immortal Realm] in that Void Sky Shuttle. His divine consciousness covers this world and he can observe us."

"What did he observe about us?" Hearing this, An Jing stood up nervously: "Can he find out that we are from another world? Can he sense the aura of another world on us?"

"How is that possible? That is the Taixu Passage I opened up. As long as my sword light is not extinguished, you are a local resident of this world, and no one can detect any abnormality."

The sword spirit denied An Jing's guess, but his tone was still very serious: "But, the possibility that he has discovered us is already very dangerous!"

“It turns out that I can’t find it.”

An Jing's tension eased a little, and he sat back down, but he was quite puzzled: "If that's the case, then what's so scary about it?"

This shocking conversation helped him completely recover from the shock of seeing the Xiandao battleship.

After calming down, An Jing turned his attention to the wasteland and towns beyond the mountains: "This wilderness may seem barren, but there are many human villages and towns in it."

"That Jindan cultivator discovered us and at most thought we were cultivators who were exploring deep into the mountains."

"Don't be afraid of a thousand things, just be prepared for the unexpected." The sword spirit was very cautious in this regard: "An Jing, you must not take yourself too lightly, especially since you have a 'fate' that makes it easy for you to be involved in all kinds of troubles."

“However, this world actually still maintains the inheritance of Qi Refining and Cultivation, which is different from the Heavenly Fate Martial Arts of Huaixu World.”

Hearing this, An Jing couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "Does having a destiny easily lead to being involved in troubles?"

"It may not be the case for others." The sword spirit said, "But your fate shows two signs. One is the 'Mars guarding the heart' caused by the famine and the experience of the demon sect, and the other is the 'Taibai eclipse of the Pleiades' caused by me. Both are the worst of the worst."

"However, since the evil forces are in conflict with each other, your luck won't be too bad. It may even be quite good."

“But even so, this also means that you are destined to be the center of many events and disputes, and often encounter bloody disasters - just like you were inexplicably involved in the incident between me, the Heavenly Demon, and the Human Dynasty Sect. Although you are lucky and are still alive and kicking, if you are not careful, you will die without a complete body.”

"Is that so?" An Jing was silent for a while, but he didn't care about the sword spirit's warning. He laughed and said, "It seems that my future life will be quite exciting."

After saying this, he looked for a while at the shadow area of ​​the city where the Xiandao battleship landed, then came to the cliff and looked around the surrounding terrain.

Looking out from halfway up the mountain, patches of gray-green mountain forests extend to the banks of a large river in the distance.

Because the Xiandao warship stirred up the clouds, the hazy rain clouds began to collapse to both sides, bringing up a turbid wall of rain and thunder.

The collapsing rain clouds pressed towards where he was, deep into the mountains. Soon, the rain came.

"An Jing, the evil spirit here is extremely strong, and the rain is also very dirty. We need to avoid it."

Before the rain wall came, the sword spirit sensed something was wrong and issued a warning: "Although you have a destiny that makes you extremely resistant to this, it is best not to soak in it for a long time."

"clear."

An Jing always listened to advice and he immediately retreated back to the cave.

The scattered raindrops soon turned into a dense rain curtain, but the temperature was not low, it was more like a sultry rainy day in the south.

Inside the cave, An Jing raised his hand to catch a drop of rain and found that it was purple-blue. Other scattered raindrops fell on his body, causing the clothes of Tianyi Sect to begin to smoke.

"Acid rain?"

This abnormality made An Jing slightly stunned - his clothes were fine products made by Xuanming Manor specifically for the "Koutou". Although they could not withstand swords and weapons, they were wear-resistant and durable, and the materials used were excellent.

How could it be easily corroded by the acid rain from this alien world and start smoking?
What’s even more terrifying is that I was completely unnoticed by the rainwater which was so dirty and corrosive. I only felt that it was slightly warm!

"After my fate was awakened, my body is indeed different from that of an ordinary person."

Retreating to the depths of the cave, An Jing found a raised flat stone platform to meditate. Looking at the gorgeous purple-blue rain curtain covering the sky and earth outside the cave entrance, he couldn't help muttering to himself: "No wonder, without destiny, it is impossible to break through the inner breath and achieve 'inner strength'."

"This ability to resist the corrosive evil spirit is the key."

But until now, An Jing is still not quite sure what his fate is.

The two evil aspects of Mars and Taibai allow him to control bloody weapons. There is no doubt that his fate is very strong, at least a "strange fate", even stronger than Bai Qinghan, possibly a "divine fate".

Its power is so great that even without activating his destiny, he can passively resist the corrosive rain in this world.

This kind of fate is An Jing's greatest asset for surviving in Huaixu and this strange world.

However, relying solely on fate is absolutely not enough for everything.

So, squatting in the cave due to the heavy rain and with nothing else to do, An Jing communicated with the sword spirit and carefully analyzed the information of this "other world".

——First of all, this other world has also encountered a "demon calamity" similar to Huai Xu's.

The barren land and corrosive rain are proof of this. Although the turbid calamity energy in the rain has been passivated by heaven and earth many times, it still remains extremely dangerous.

——Secondly, for some reason, this world still maintains the practice system of 'refining qi and cultivating the truth'.

This is good news for An Jing, because the sword spirit is the strong one in this system. Although he does not understand martial arts, he is an expert in Qi training. Whether it is identifying secret treasures, guiding the practice of magic, or even optimizing the skills, he can do it.

With the sword spirit here, An Jing is no longer an ignorant "outsider" in this world.

——Finally, this world has civilization, towns, and big cities in the distance.

Simply put, there are people and resources here, and their technical level is extremely high, and the skills in [Weapon Repair] are even more outstanding.

The 'finely forged hardware' required for An Jing's 'Taibai Haoling Divine Prohibition' is probably not difficult to find in this world.

That immortal warship was most likely made entirely of spiritual steel, which was enough to prove the hardware production in this world.

As long as he can sneak into the towns of this world, An Jing will have the opportunity to obtain more resources, rapidly improve his strength, and deal with the dangers he may encounter in the Huaixu Realm.

As for the advanced cultivation method of 'Divine Forbidden', as long as it is improved by a small stage, the combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.

With resources from both worlds, An Jing can become stronger at an unimaginable speed, making it impossible for enemies from both worlds to predict.
