Chapter 2268: Chapter 2268: Iron Bay
Other than the time restriction, everything else is fine.
Serving this lady doesn’t seem to be an issue for Jing Yan. First of all, he came to Nightmare City through her Nightmare Magic Cube, and secondly, he isn’t familiar with Nightmare City, so he needs to find a place to settle down and understand the city better before addressing other matters.
Jing Yan also noticed that this lady should be from a powerful family, and Uncle Hai is clearly her protector. If not from a powerful family, how could they have such a formidable Immortal Venerable as a guard?
"A million years is too long," Jing Yan said.
"How long do you wish for then?" Uncle Hai asked.
"Ten thousand years!" Jing Yan thought for a moment and said.
When Jing Yan mentioned ten thousand years, Uncle Hai chuckled softly.
"Miss, I suggest sending him back! Serving for a million years is already considered short, yet he only wants to serve for ten thousand years." Uncle Hai said to the lady in the green dress.
"Jing Yan, serving our Bai Family for a million years is indeed not long. Many cultivators summoned here might have to serve for tens of millions, even billions of years." The lady in the green dress looked at Jing Yan and said.
"Jing Yan, a million years cannot be shortened further. Otherwise, we can only send you back to Faro Heaven and summon another cultivator. You are in the Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm, so you don’t have an advantage in terms of strength. If you were in the Immortal Venerable Realm, perhaps the service duration could be shortened." Uncle Hai said.
"I have a proposal."
"How about this? I am currently in the Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm, but I am very close to the Immortal Venerable Realm. Let’s not set a specific duration, and make this condition more flexible. If I advance to the Immortal Venerable Realm, then I will continue to serve the lady for ten thousand years. If I cannot advance to the Immortal Venerable Realm, then I will continue to serve by the lady’s side." Jing Yan carefully proposed.
His proposal was well-considered in his mind. He also knew that the two wanted him to serve for a million years, which wasn’t really long, but he truly didn’t want to stay in Nightmare City for that long.
If they accept his proposal, then his service duration will be linked to the time when he enters the Immortal Venerable Realm.
Upon hearing Jing Yan’s words, Uncle Hai and the lady in the green dress exchanged a glance.
"Jing Yan, you seem very confident! Are you so certain that you can quickly step into the Immortal Venerable Realm? You are already in the Immortal Charm Realm and should know how difficult it is to achieve the Immortal Venerable Realm." Uncle Hai said.
"I know, but I believe I can enter the Immortal Venerable Realm," Jing Yan nodded.
"Alright, since that’s the case, let’s go with your proposal." Uncle Hai smiled.
Next, Jing Yan took an oath, and everything went smoothly.
Then the lady in the green dress raised her arm, pointed lightly across the air, and a ripple of energy appeared, falling onto Jing Yan. Jing Yan felt a slight change in his body, but there was no danger.
"Now, we can leave the Divine Hall." The lady in the green dress said.
"Let’s go!" Uncle Hai looked at Jing Yan and said.
Jing Yan followed the two of them towards the hall’s entrance, this time indeed without encountering any energy blocking him from leaving. It seems the lady in the green dress had used some special method to allow the summoned to exit the hall.
After leaving the Divine Hall, Jing Yan discovered that the place was an island. Beyond the island was a vast expanse of blue sea.
The three of them left the island, flying towards the mainland.
"Jing Yan, from now on, you are the lady’s guard. If the lady faces danger, you must protect her with all your might." Uncle Hai said.
"Naturally." Jing Yan nodded.
"You came from Faro Heaven and probably know little about Nightmare City. Let me tell you about Nightmare City now."
"The Nightmare City region is divided into Eighteen Bays. Our Bai Family belongs to Iron Bay among the Eighteen Bays. In the entire Iron Bay, our Bai Family is considered a top-tier power. Heh, if we weren’t a top-tier power, we wouldn’t be eligible to summon cultivators with the Nightmare Magic Cube."
"..."
As they flew, Uncle Hai explained the general situation of Nightmare City to Jing Yan.
The Summoning Divine Hall is near the mainland, not deep in the ocean, so it wasn’t long before the three of them could see the Iron Bay mainland.
"Uncle Hai, are there many Soul Cultivators in Nightmare City?" Jing Yan asked.
He came to Nightmare City for soul techniques.
"Soul Cultivators?" Uncle Hai glanced at Jing Yan.
"The Soul Cultivators in Nightmare City are naturally more than in the Nine Days of Immortal Domain. However, in Nightmare City, ordinary cultivators are still more. After all, the conditions for soul cultivation are too demanding, and few can meet them. Our Nightmare Clan is relatively more suitable for soul cultivation, but even within the whole group, those who meet the conditions are maybe just one percent. Also, most can only master lower-level soul techniques." Uncle Hai said slowly.
Jing Yan couldn’t help but sigh at these words. Soul cultivation is indeed too challenging. Mastering high-level soul techniques is even harder.
"Is soul technique easy to find in Nightmare City?" Jing Yan asked again.
"Jing Yan, do you want to cultivate soul techniques?" Uncle Hai had realized what Jing Yan wanted by this point.
Summoned beings who come to Nightmare City often want to cultivate soul techniques, but even among the Nightmare Clan, few can cultivate soul techniques. Those summoned beings who can cultivate soul techniques are even fewer. Most eventually have to give up on soul techniques. Some summoned beings who leave Nightmare City take away some resources that are relatively not precious here but are extremely precious in the Nine Days of Immortal Domain.
"Indeed, I have this idea," Jing Yan replied, finding no need to hide it.
"Heh..." Uncle Hai laughed lightly.
"It isn’t difficult to want to cultivate soul techniques. Our Bai Family has various Soul Technique Books; if you want one, it won’t be too hard to get. But it’s best to be prepared for failure." Uncle Hai continued.
"Understood." Jing Yan’s eyes lit up.
He originally thought obtaining soul techniques would be extremely difficult, but it turns out the Bai Family has them and can be acquired. With this, he should soon be able to master true soul technique attacks, right? With his Divine Soul Body, if he masters soul technique attacks, even ordinary Immortal Venerables would be severely affected by his soul technique attacks, wouldn’t they?
Iron Bay, Bai City, Bai Residence.
Iron Bay is also a vast region, with many cities within it. Bai City belongs to the Bai Family, where they can be said to control everything.
The region of Nightmare City is mysterious. Outside cultivators can only enter through the Nightmare Magic Cube, but actually, the structure of Nightmare City is similar to the Nine Days of Immortal Domain.
Jing Yan followed Bai Bingli into the Bai Residence. As a guard of Bai Bingli, in the future period, he would be considered a part of the Bai Family.
