July 1st, the ninth year of Wu Geng's reign.

The first batch of Beast Taming Sect disciples selected to travel down the mountain were eager to try and descended in groups.

The travel period is roughly set at six months, meaning we will return to the sect before the New Year.

Each disciple could decide the scope of their travels, but Lin Canghai stipulated that they should stay within the Hantian Dynasty, which consisted of five major prefectures.

Logically speaking, half a year should be more than enough time for the disciples to travel within the territory of the Hantian Dynasty.

At the same time, the territory of the Hantian Dynasty is vast, and if one really wanted to travel all over it, half a year would definitely not be enough.

Therefore, rules are rigid, but people are flexible. If a disciple who has gone down the mountain to travel encounters an opportunity or event at a certain location, he/she can appropriately postpone his/her return to the sect after reporting to the Beast Taming Sect.

After discussions among the higher-ups of the Beast Taming Sect, a quarter of the sect's inner disciples and some of its personal disciples were dispatched to different locations.

The number of people traveling together is optional, but a minimum of two people is required; otherwise, in case of danger, they will not be able to look after each other.

All disciples who have traveled down the mountain must give a comprehensive account of the three major events that occurred during their travels upon their return. These events could be exorcising demons and protecting the righteous path, or seizing opportunities for advancement.

After the journey is over, rewards will be given to each disciple based on their achievements.

Of course, this was Song Xun's point of view. After all, as a human from Earth in the 21st century, he was very adept at constructing such a mission framework.

Song Xun was also on his way. He was going to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect first. Lin Canghai had assigned Song Xun the task of accompanying Jiang Wanfeng down the mountain for a trip.

He also instructed Song Xun to go to Zhenyao Pass, find Lin Canghai's old friend, and borrow a magic weapon.

The distance between Zhenyao Pass and Cangwu Forest is not far, so it's on the way. Therefore, Song Xun readily agreed to both things.

He was going to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to ask Jiang Wanfeng to teach him swordsmanship. After learning the swordsmanship, they would travel together, which was naturally not a problem.

If Song Xun had to name his only friend of the same age in this world, it would be Jiang Wanfeng.

"So, does that mean we'll be spending the next period of time with that little girl, Jiang Wanfeng?"

At this moment, Huang Bulang and Xiaobai stood on either side of Song Xun in their beast-taming forms, with one person, one dog, and one deer standing on a cloud.

This is the Swift Cloud, a travel-enhancing artifact given to Song Xun by Lin Canghai, which also makes up for Song Xun's current lack of a mount.

"Great, great! I get to see the mistress of the house again!"

"Ahem, Xiaobai, don't talk nonsense. Dahuang, be polite later, after all, we need your help."

"If you ask me, why bother with swordsmanship? I'll teach you claw techniques, guaranteed to make your fights exhilarating!"

As they became more familiar with each other, the big yellow dog became more and more amusing as it got tired. Song Xun ignored it and continued to urge the Swift Cloud.

Xiaobai and Dahuang have distinctly different attitudes toward Jiang Wanfeng. Dahuang clearly shows some resistance toward his mistress at this moment.

No, no, it's not the mistress yet, it hasn't come to that yet, Song Xun stopped himself.

Hmm, not bad. Traveling down the mountain, accompanied by beautiful women, wandering the world with a sword, how wonderful!

When Da Huang saw that Song Xun ignored him, he turned to tease Xiao Bai. Now that Xiao Bai was by his side all day, he was overjoyed and laughed like a silly dog.

As for the magical artifact that Lin Canghai asked Song Xun to borrow, Song Xun himself guessed the reason.

The Cangwu Mountains are not far from the Wanjian Sect and the Yushou Sect. The Heisha Sect within them is a troublesome enemy, so it is natural to eliminate them as soon as possible.

The previously arrested Hu Da and others were very stubborn, and no matter how hard the Beast Taming Sect interrogators tried, they were unable to obtain any useful information.

Lin Canghai's old friend at Zhenyao Pass was a general there. Because Zhenyao Pass had to fight against extraterrestrial demons year-round, interrogation methods were sometimes necessary.

Therefore, the needle that Lin Canghai asked Song Xun to borrow was the one commonly used when interrogating the Heavenly Demon at Zhenyao Pass.

It is said that inserting this needle will make the person being interrogated only tell the truth.

This old friend was someone Lin Canghai had met during his travels in the world.

It is said that Lin Canghai also fought against the extraterrestrial demons at Zhenyao Pass for a period of time.

If I have time after my travels, I should also hone my skills.

Beyond this continent lies a region that even the Immortal Lord cannot explore, known as the Inaccessible Land.

Those chaotic areas are known as the outer realms, where numerous extraterrestrial demons frequently emerge, attempting to invade the mainland.

Therefore, it wasn't just the Hantian Dynasty, but also the surrounding dynasties, sects, and large and small countries.

Wherever the edge of the continent borders the chaotic zone beyond the domain, numerous garrisons are established to defend against the invasion of the extraterrestrial demons.

After all, whether we are human, demon, or other species, we are all part of the continental situation. But those extraterrestrial demons are different; they are clearly species that cannot be explained by common sense.

No matter which faction it was, none of them dared to allow the extraterrestrial demons to successfully invade the continent.

According to the information Song Xun learned, it is said that hundreds of years ago, several immortal lords led many immortals to set foot in the outer realms.

However, in the end only one immortal master returned, and he lost his cultivation and was reduced to a Mahayana realm cultivator.

This caused a stir throughout the land, and the entire continent strengthened its defenses against external threats.

The current continent is also praised by that old immortal master as the continent of order, corresponding to the chaotic zone outside the domain.

According to that old immortal master, the outer realms are no different from the inner realms; mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, plains, and trees all exist.

The only difference was that the world there was gray, without a single other color.

The immortal lords and immortals who entered that time experienced a significant decrease in their Daoist power upon stepping into the chaotic zone, until it disappeared completely.

It was because of this that they discovered their lineage had vanished without a trace during the battle with the extraterrestrial demons.

Overwhelmed by panic, they suffered a complete rout, and the exploration mission thus came to an end in failure.

Lin Canghai told Song Xun all of this, and he didn't know much either. The information about the extraterrestrial realms was only known to the higher-ups of this world. To avoid panic, the world's powerful figures did not pass on this information hundreds of years later.

Lin Canghai, after all, was a former sect leader of a first-rate sect, so he also knew some information.

This gave Song Xun a clearer understanding of this world, with its unspeakable power and unknowable chaos. Could this be the truth behind his transmigration?

Song Xun has been trying to figure out why he traveled through time, but clearly the information from inside the pass cannot explain it.

Just as Song Xun was deep in thought, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect finally arrived.

Song Xun put away his Swift Cloud and landed at the main gate of the Myriad Swords Sect.

He had already sent a message to Jiang Wanfeng before he arrived.

Jiang Wanfeng is now waiting for them at the door.
