Night Without End

Chapter 1391 - 585: Wailing Plunder for a Press-Ganged Husband

Outside Yuheng City, the old tree branches trembled as the new cicada began its song.

The line outside the Mist Gate was very long, and Qin Ming stopped, feeling quite surprised. Are there really so many people wanting to enter the Wild Immortal Realm?

Moments later, he understood the reason. The previous "Life Talismans" needed an "update."

Each talisman is unique, pre-bound to a person, and if the identity doesn’t match, one cannot journey home.

This measure prevents cursed items from stealing talismans, which can be used for tracing and pursuit.

"Actually, the old talismans had no flaws, but under the suggestion of some super organizations, they were changed to new ones."

"It’s reported that the Huang Family suffered a big loss in the Wild Immortal Realm, fell from grace, and is now refining life talismans anew to make it easier to screen that ’Zheng Guang.’"

"Who is Zheng Guang? Isn’t he the Evil Path Grandmaster?"

"First Generation Grandmaster, one of whose long list of names was abbreviated as Zheng Guang."

Many people discussed this matter; some were cautious in their speech, while others were bold, with wide smiles curving on their faces.

Qin Ming stood in line and understood at this point.

The Huang Family went to great lengths just to hunt him down.

But it doesn’t matter, whether the killer is Zheng Guang or an Evil Path Grandmaster, how does it concern a layman like him?

Now, with a new talisman in hand, he has official recognition and walks under the "sunlight."

Thus, he confidently stepped into the Wild Immortal Realm.

Beside the Mist Gate, the Pure Yang Consciousness of an Ancestor Master personally stood watch, and the God-Shining Mirror hung high.

The Huang Family believed, "Zheng Guang" was blocked in the Mysterious Realm, and to this day hasn’t started the journey home.

Qin Ming took a deep breath, absorbing the Spirit Essence of the Otherworld.

He moved with ease, sleeves floating, boldly striding away.

Of course, to remain inconspicuous, he stored his Taoist skill in Old Bu during the crossing, as passing through with a purely civilian status was safest.

And now, deep within the Wild Immortal Realm, he naturally wouldn’t wrong himself any longer, the First Generation Grandmaster who calmed his nerves with tea at Shuangshu Village is back.

"Groan... Roar!"

Ahead, alongside low growls, the sound of metal chains clashed ceaselessly, as a group of people returned with several tied-up "Wild Men."

Someone asked, "Fellow Taoists, did you capture some primitive natives who eat raw flesh and blood?"

The group heard this and their faces turned extremely unpleasant.

Some even scolded, "If you don’t know how to talk, then don’t talk!"

An elder patiently explained, "These are two Elders from our clan, and some juniors."

Immediately, many people gasped.

Indeed, the Wild Immortal Realm is deep as the sea, once Lost, even a charming gentleman or peerless beauty will revert to wildness, becoming Zhili Ape Demons.

To maintain one’s nature requires great resolve.

Many were astonished, their eyes almost fixed in a stare.

The Wild Immortal Realm is truly evil, the real peril only now begins to show.

Originally, everyone believed this place was peaceful and tranquil, a Pure Land, hence they called friends and spread the word — few people, abundant medicine, come quickly!

Qin Ming’s expression became serious, on the way he was probing and learning the specifics of this realm.

"Even Great Grandmasters have gone wild?"

Once this news broke, it was like throwing a heavy stone into a calm lake, waves crashing endlessly.

"Staying over twenty days in the Wild Immortal Realm leads to a strong sense of ’belonging,’ unwilling to leave. After about a month, one will nearly fully assimilate into this realm."

All "assimilated" beings have a strong territorial awareness.

Now it is discovered, in deeper regions, there are ancient castles, ruins, left by outsiders from earlier times, whose descendants have now fully nativeized.

And this is only the beginning, eventually many individuals will be driven by primitive instincts, ancestral traits will become pronounced, turning them into Wild Men, Wild Beasts.

In fact, some Alien Species here once were humans.

In Yewu World, the human composition is quite complex. Among them, many higher beings transform into humans, and subsequently their descendants can fully ’solidify.’

Accidentally entering the Wild Immortal Realm easily disrupts the "permanent solidification" state, leading to "ancestral return."

Qin Ming pondered, "Does this mean, the Silver Ape King and Bull Demon King who joined forces with me earlier to attack the Insect Nest, possibly had human ancestors?"

This inevitably compels one to think deeply, just what kind of place is the Wild Immortal Realm? It’s so unusual, completely beyond many people’s understanding.

"Rumors say even Ancestor Masters might be affected."

"Besides, there could exist Earth Immortal Level natives, very restrained, sealing themselves, as if waiting for rescue."

After hearing this news, Qin Ming naturally thought of the Dragon Nest there, deep in the belly of the mountain, with heavy stone doors, and iron chains clanging.

All outsiders, as strong as Earth Immortals, face the danger of becoming Lost.

"In the current environment, after exploring for more than ten days, one must leave first, recover outside for several days before returning."

Otherwise, the Wild Immortal Realm is unsolvable!

"Additionally, once transformed into natives, conscious awareness gradually fades, returning to wildness, the physical state improves unprecedentedly, capable even of resisting Tao Rhythm disturbances."

This means, local Grandmasters become even more dangerous.

Even without Xuanhuang Qi, Primordial Qi, etc., they can maintain their "original state" fairly well.

Anyone can see, this seemingly primitive world has big problems.

Is this the "Innate World," or is it man-made? Currently, it’s impossible to investigate.

Someone warned, "I advise everyone, do not act arrogantly, thinking of yourself as special, believing this place has no effect on you. Such changes occur quietly, unnoticed, until you realize discomfort, it will already be too late."

"Once there was a Grandmaster, driven by curiosity, didn’t believe in evil. He had time to withdraw but ended up sinking, now occupying a territory as the Monster King."
