Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 111

…

He is not that surprised to see the old woman able to ride a tall mount with ease. Jing Xue may look old but Xin Ja already knew that she was actually not that old in age and this was just her physical appearance. This is either she is hiding it or she is inflicted with some kind of disease.

He did not know as he could not check her vitality further because of the significant difference between their strength.

As they travel out of the city, Jing Xue began to explain to Xin Ja the reason why she asked him to go with her.

"The An Clan has obtained a map of a Shen\'s abode… I will not explain to you what this entails, right?" she explained.

Of course, Xin Ja knew what benefits one can get with a Shen\'s Abode. He obtained his ring from that place along with some things he has not even used until today.

That was a long time ago though.

Plus he also promised that if he sees the soul of that Shen on the other side of the land, he would try to help him recall the past. But so far he has not met the guy yet or even knows how he could recognize him.

But the legacy said not to worry about the minor stuff so Xin Ja has not to sweat on it.

"We discovered that there is a strange formation blocking the entrance but could not check it thoroughly because of the almost unending amount of beasts coming to attack those that enter that place…"

"Unending amount?" Xin Ja suddenly asked.

"Yes, the number of beasts in that place is baffling. It was as if they are produced inside that cave so that no one can enter it…"

"And all of you fought them?"

"Uhuh… Many of our clansmen have lost their lives in that place. We cannot even take them out of there…"

Xin Ja suddenly had a bad premonition about that place. But he also became curious about what kind of place was it.

He has not heard an unending amount of beasts and a battle that could shake the land. If that is truly the case, then that whole area of the forest should have been decimated.

He has many questions in his mind that have no answer, so he feels a bit skeptical of the situation. So for now, he could only listen.

"The An Clan does not want any more casualties on their part… So we decided to do recruitment along with the rest of the families. We did not want to hide anything from them, so we told them the truth. But who would have known that those clans and families would still risk it."

"Haha… Senior Jing… that is what you call… Greed." He chuckled.

"Hmm… I just hope that their greed will not cause them to hate the An Clan."

"Well, you did not hide anything from them… So you don\'t have to worry too much. The risk is their own."

The two then discuss what they should do when arriving at that place.

The journey of the two is uneventful because no beast would dare attack them especially after feeling the strong aura of Jing Xue.

Those that are stupid enough to bare their fangs would be turned into their dinner or lunch.

Two days later…

Xin Ja\'s journey with Jing Xue is really fast. It even seems that she has memorized the path to that place at the back of her mind.

As soon as they reached the outer part of the forest where the location of the entrance to the abode is, they could immediately sense the gloomy aura in the air.

Several cultivators with different colored robes stood on guard in that place.

When they saw two people riding steeds, they immediately became wary.

"Who are you guys?" a tall man asked while he held a firm grip on the spear in his hand.

The guy is a Ki-Master primary level.

From the way he held the spear, Xin Ja could tell that the guy is an expert in battles.

"Why are you so guarded? What is happening here?" suddenly Jing Xue asked with a deep frown.

When the guy saw the frown on her face and noticed who she was, his expression suddenly changes.

"Greetings Senior!" he greeted with a cupped hand.

The rest also did the same while nodding their heads. No one dares to lift their heads to look at the old woman before them.

She is Aunt Jing of the An Clan. She might look like an old lady, but anyone knows of her great fighting prowess and also her temperament.

They know that there are two sides to her… the calm doctor and the deadly warrior.

"Responding to the senior\'s question… We… We have encountered two people who just went inside… They are very strong…" the tall man said with a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Very strong? Ki-Champions?" she asked while squinting as if thinking of something.

"Umm… I think they are nearing the late stages…" the man replied.

With a nod of her head, Jing Xue also thinks that those people might be truly powerful. She needs to be careful of them.

Even though she is also a Ki-Champion, she is only at the 32nd level. If those guys are really strong, then she would be facing danger if she clashes with them.

"Thank you for telling this us. Young lad, we have to…" she suddenly stopped as she discovered that the young man beside her is already gone.

p He seems to be looking in thin air as if scrutinizing something unseen by the naked eye.

"Hmm… This is truly amazing…" Xin Ja muttered to himself.

He is holding a small telescope-like thing while scrutinizing the air before him.

"What are you doing?" Aunt Jing asked with a frown.

Xin Ja held the detector in his hand and with a thought absorb it back into his ring.

This detector has the same system and technology as the goggles he was experimenting on so that he could see the power levels and data of an object he is scanning with.

It has the same function as his unique vision and has the same visual system used in the Mechas.

After scanning the air in his surroundings, he stood calmly and then showed a faint smile.

"Aunt Jing, it would be better if we do not enter this place yet…" he suggested.

Feeling a bit confused, Jing Xue wanted to retort his words.

Why would they not enter this place? If those two people inside successfully defeated those beasts and then steal the legacy then it would mean that the An Clan has lost something very precious, right?

And because of that, she is now feeling anxious and wanted to rush in to beat the crap out of those haughty people.

"What do you mean? If we do not enter this now we…"

"It\'s okay… Those two… They will never enter this place." Xin Ja said with confidence in his eyes.

How could he not know what is happening right now inside?

He has already felt and seen what is really happening, so he is not that worried.

She wanted to question him, but she decides to trust him and wait and see.

The two waited for a while, but they soon could feel some changes in the air.

The others also felt that strange phenomenon and quickly look at the entrance of the area.

"I think it has stopped…" Xin Ja said as he suddenly turn to the bushes before him and quickly walks towards it.

"Wait, you cannot enter that…" before Jing Xue could finish her words, she saw Xin Ja\'s figure entering the bushes.

She was startled and quickly followed behind him.

The rest also saw this and subconsciously wanted to follow, but they stopped.

This is because a wounded figure suddenly walked out of the entrance.

What surprised the rest of the people guarding the entrance is that the man is actually severely wounded and that he was alone when he walked out.

"This is a death trap! The An Clan is trying to kill the other clans and families from Aewa city! This is a conspiracy!" the man shouted as he staggered.

The people in the area did not say something. They were all beaten when they tried to stop the two people from entering a while ago, so how could they retort this man\'s words?

But the tall man did not want the man to slander his An Clan, so he took a step forward.

"Senior… We have clearly warned all of you about the danger of this place. You cannot slander my clan\'s name just because of your loss… We also warned you before you enter that the place is extremely dangerous." He said with a confident look in his eyes.

The man glared at the tall guard.

"Shut up!" he roared.

He did not do anything and just limply walks away.

But as soon as he passes by where Xin Ja and Jing Xue enter, he halted his footsteps.

An idea crept into his head and quickly followed the same path and was able to enter the area.

The tall man\'s eyes suddenly became alarmed as he rushes to the entry point.

"Wait! That is the elder of the Berong Clan… We cannot offend him." someone stopped him.
