Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 1228 - 565: Shi Ping’an’s Century-Long Growth and the Child of Fortune’s Opportunity

"Discovered a Teleportation Array to the Demon Clan area?"

Upon hearing this, many Elders were taken aback, finding it hard to believe.

But soon, an uncontrollable joy surged in their hearts.

This was undoubtedly earth-shattering good news for Green Willow Village.

Ever since they learned that there were Human Race and Demon Race areas outside, they had been longing to find a way to reach the safer areas outside, but it was extremely difficult.

Given that Green Willow Village was located within the Demon Realm, leaving this place would require traversing unknown tens of thousands of miles.

Along the way, they could encounter countless demons and monsters.

A single misstep could lead to an encounter with a High-tier Demon, and they would certainly face annihilation.

Hence, they had no choice but to honestly stay within the Cyan Stone Mountain Range, not daring to leave.

However, now they have actually discovered an Ancient Teleportation Array, which is truly wonderful.

Once they know the location of the Demon Clan area, they can set up Heaven-Reaching Bridge Charms, which, at that time, can connect the Demon Clan area with the Cyan Stone Mountain area.

If they indeed run into bad luck and encounter a High-tier Demon, they could relocate Green Willow Village collectively.

Without a doubt, this could become a retreat path for Green Willow Village.

This is an unprecedented piece of good news for them.

"This news is true, of course."

"Ping’an has informed me of this through a Communication Talisman."

"However, it’s a one-time use Teleportation Array, and it will be destroyed after a single use."

"But that’s okay, Ping’an carries a Heaven-Reaching Bridge Charm."

"By using this Spirit Talisman, they can teleport back to Green Willow Village."

"So, for now, we need to wait for news from Ping’an."

"I hope that place is suitable for human survival."

The village chief, Shi Hao, stroked his graying beard and said with great joy.

He never expected his grandson to suddenly encounter such an extraordinary opportunity.

In fact, his grandson’s luck over the past hundred years has always been quite good.

Though he ventured near the Cyan Stone Mountain Range, he occasionally came across enormous fortunes.

Be it finding storage bags of Ancient Cultivators or discovering legacies left by one of them.

Indeed, his grandson has a profound destiny of fortune.

"The Demon Clan area? It might not necessarily be a good place."

"Right, as the gentleman mentioned, although the Human and Demon Races sometimes collaborate because of the demons, the Demon Race generally harbors hostility toward humans. They probably wouldn’t want humans appearing on their land."

"That is true. If we consider the situation, if a Demon Race Cultivator showed up in our Green Willow Village, we wouldn’t be pleased either. Who would want a foreign race occupying their land?"

"Even though that may be so, the area of the Demon Clan is vast. We only need a small portion, as long as there’s space for planting Spirit Medicine and Spirit Rice, sufficient to feed a large population, at least to be self-sufficient."

"Right, we can also hide in the Demon Clan area. As long as we’re not discovered by Demon Race Cultivators, wouldn’t that work? We’ve managed to hide within the Demon Realm, let alone the Demon Clan area."

"In fact, even if Ping’an discovers the coordinates of the Human Race area, it might not be entirely beneficial. The Great Xuan Dynasty is said to have strict demographic control, requiring thorough checks on any outsiders to prevent demon spies. If we actually return to the Great Xuan Dynasty, could we really expect good treatment?"

"Yes, and with the Great Xuan Dynasty also under attack from demons, almost everyone is required to enlist. If we return, we might be sent to war as cannon fodder."

"They might even plunder the wealth of Green Willow Village."

The Elders of Green Willow Village engaged in heated discussion.

Originally, they did not understand the Spirit Ruins Realm well, but through Shi Ping’an’s intelligence gathered over a hundred years from the Mixed Element Forum, they have become well-informed about the basic information of the Spirit Ruins Realm.

Shi Ping’an has also shared this information with other Elders.

Therefore, they now know what is happening in the Spirit Ruins Realm.

Even though Green Willow Village seems dangerously positioned within the Demon Realm, living in other places is just as perilous.

Despite this, they also want to find a fallback route for Green Willow Village.

After all, staying in the Cyan Stone Mountain Range lacks any sense of security.

Should they accidentally encounter a High-tier Demon, escape would be impossible.

"So, we need to find some escape routes."

"Now, we can only rely on Ping’an."

"I hope he can find some safe places for us."

The village chief, Shi Hao, said with great anticipation.

Even though Green Willow Village is indeed very safe now, it is far from enough.

......

Meanwhile, in a small Secret Realm within a certain mountain range in the Demon Race area of the Spirit Ruins Realm.

A mysterious burly man appeared here, his shoulders wide and back broad like a fierce beast from ancient times shaped into human form. Every inch of his skin pulsed with explosive power: his biceps bulged like hillocks, and when tensed, veins twisted like coiled raging dragons; his chest seemed cast from iron, shield-like in its firmness, with eight-pack abs sharply defined, rising and falling with each breath, as if concealing a surge of magma; even the muscles on his neck twisted and intersected, showcasing strength capable of shattering mountains and splitting stones at a whim.

His skin was a bronze color, coarse like polished dark iron, yet intricately patterned with dark golden mysterious runes at the shoulders, neck, chest, waist, and lower legs.
