Chapter 135: Heaven Reincarnation Hall, Beneficiary
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Ming stood atop Jiuyang Peak as he saw everything that happened in the Taiyang Hall. He thought that Linglong would make a big scene out of it, but she reasoned it out, and it made him feel relieved.
“This old man is really scared of death!” Jiang Ming shook his head, speechless, as he saw Yue Cheng kneeling on the ground with a terrified look on his face.
As Lin Han and Hui Xin arrived and waltzed right into the main hall, Jiang Ming only snickered.
The guardian who came along with Lin Han saw Lin Han being knocked out, hence wanted to engage in battle. The Combat Mannequin in the Jiuyang Sect stood up and radiated waves of sword qi at the guardian, imposing fear on him until he did not dare to move.
Five Elemental Linglong came back to the hall in a blink of an eye.
“Stay here, for now. I need to go out for a bit,” Jiang Ming explained before vanishing into thin air. Five Elemental Linglong could only look towards the
west.
“First Seat Jiang had a lot hiding in his sleeves!” Chang Yiming took a deep breath and shook his head with a smile. He had a hunch about this a long time ago, and this was just confirming his guesses. It did not take long before Chang Yiming noticed something and said, “First Seat Jiang has almost never left Jiuyang Sect. What happened today?”
If memory serves him right, Jiang Ming seemed to have never left the sect, and it was not an exaggeration to say he was a million-year shut-in. With Junior Sister back, he should be getting lovey-dovey with her, yet he suddenly decided to leave the place. This seemed obviously abnormal.
Five Elemental Linglong did not respond and only gazed far away.
Jiang Ming left the Jiuyang Sect and came to a place ten thousands of miles away to the west.
There were three people here, two men and a woman, all with their auras hidden.
They were strangely inspecting their surroundings. All the while, there were traces of auras leaking from their bodies that seemed to be incompatible with the heavens and earth, yet they intervened with each other and merged together. It was truly a strange sight. Jiang Ming opened the Human Path Record and looked them up.
Name: Pei Long
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Cultivation Base: Level 7 (Primal Spirit Realm)
Background: The Pei clan of the Nine Cubical Plane. (PS: Beneficiary of the Heaven Reincarnation Hall, One of the members of the Sky Dragon Clan.
Relationship: 0
Innate Talent: Nine Stars
Status: Originally a normal human being, he was accidentally invited by the Heaven Reincarnation Hall to become a beneficiary. He descended into many infinite realms to complete missions through the Reincarnation Hall and received rewards for them. Through numerous missions, his cultivation skyrocketed and slowly earned the trust of many other beneficiaries, ultimately forming the Sky Dragon Clan.
They suffered serious casualties from the previous mission and were left with only three members.
Now they have accepted an easier mission to recover their vitality. The mission was to save Yue Cheng of the Jiuyang Sect in 3 days and safely send him out of Qing Province.
When they arrive in this realm, they first integrate with the heavens and earth aura so that they will not be rejected and will then start gathering information before taking further actions.
“Dang! They came from the Infinite Heavenly Realms? Reincarnation Halls? Beneficiaries?” Jiang Ming was shocked.
The emergence of the Supreme Pagoda was already shocking, and now there was even a Reincarnation Hall? And it can even descend into the Infinite Heavenly Realms? Jiang Ming was starting to feel everything had become a mess.
He quickly checked the statuses of the other two, and those two were also beneficiaries of the Reincarnation Hall and members of the Sky Dragon Clan, as expected. Both their cultivation levels were also at Level 7.
Jiang Ming’s eyes narrowed as his mind slowly merged into the illusionary realm, seeping into the special network, and entering the three’s sound-isolation array formation.
“I’ve fused with this world’s aura and merged completely with it. I no longer feel the sense of rejection from it!” Pei Long breathed a sigh of relief, “Tian Xin, Zui Hu, how about the two of you?”
“I’m done!” Tian Xin replied. A mirror appeared in his hand, emitting white lights as inscriptions started to spray out of the mirror into the void. “This is a perfect planar word that can withstand the powers of a level 10 cultivation. No, it seems there might be a deep hiding potential and cannot be discovered!”
“I’m done as well!” replied Zui Hu. He had a burly physique with a face filled with tiger stripes that gave off a savage feeling. “We will have to lay low when we complete our mission, for there will surely be a lot of strong experts in a perfect planar world. However, the mission this time is only at C-grade. With our strength, it won’t be difficult to complete. After we finish up with this mission and merge into this world, we should go and relax here. The last world we went to was just too brutal!”
“I was exhausted from the last world and haven’t even recovered from it until now. Big Brother, how about we take a good rest after completing the mission?” Tian Xin said with a smile, “There will surely be a lot of Practitioners in this world. I would also like to catch a few geniuses to use as a furnace and improve my core strength.”
“Complete the mission, retreat, explore and try to find opportunities and reap benefits! It’s not too late to relax after getting enough benefits. Let’s go and scout for a bit!” Pei Long replied.
The three of them could hear the same voice echoing in their mind as they planned on scouting.
“Ding: Reminder. Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mission danger level has increased to B Grade.”
“Ding: Affected by external circumstances, mission danger level increased to A Grade!”
“Ding: Affected by force majeure, mission danger level increased to SSS Grade!”
Their faces changed instantly upon hearing the reminders. Jiang Ming suddenly struck at that very moment.
A projection was suddenly formed as though another world had descended, binding the three of them and rendering them unable to move.
They could hear echoes in their mind.
“Ding: Mission was aborted, forcing a return teleportation.”
Upon hearing the reminder, the three of them let out a breath of relief. It was supposed to be a normal C-grade mission. When it suddenly rose to the highest level, it nearly scared the life out of them. To the three of them, death was imminent for such high-level missions.
Fortunately, right after they arrived and noticed the mission danger level increased, they initiated the force-returning teleportation function so that they could escape death. Only, where did such danger come from? Even if they were attacked, they did not even see a glimpse of the enemy. At that moment, Jiang Ming’s eyes narrowed, and a book appeared right in his hand as he swiped in the air.
The three outsiders could hear a rushing prompt in their minds with streaks of blood-red text.
“Ding: Forced Return Teleportation forcefully interrupted.”
“Ding: Affected by force majeure, self-protection sequence activated.”
“Ding: To prevent the Beneficiaries’ information from leaking, the self-destruction sequence has been forcefully activated: Soul annihilation and all traces of memory will be erased!”
“Ding: Pei Long, Tian Xin, Zui Hu. Three Beneficiaries. Reincarnation Hall has recorded your current situation. You may now die!”
The three of their faces changed instantly as they twisted into a panic.
Then, their souls were directly obliterated along with the other special items they had.
Goosebumps were all over his body as Jiang Ming watched the whole scene unfold before him.
He could feel a terrifying aura hidden around the area. That aura could easily wipe away his existence. Jiang Ming retreated immediately while he recalled the Human Path Record and hid with the system.
As soon as he hid, he felt an untraceable fluctuation sweeping the whole area. It did not seem to discover anything and retreated swiftly.
Jiang Ming returned to Jiuyang Peak, and his face slowly returned to normal.
“Brother, what happened just now?” Five Elemental Linglong asked.
She could feel that Jiang Ming had done something earlier. Even though it was subtle, she still noticed it.
Chang Yiming also looked at him with concern.
“Nothing’s wrong. Don’t worry!” Jiang Ming smiled as he sat on the chair. He looked over at the tea prepared by Linglong and chugged down the whole cup.
“Great. I’m going to go cultivate now!” Chang Yiming noticed something strange about Jiang Ming. Jiang Ming did not want to tell them what happened, and he knew he should not continue bothering him. He clenched his fist and headed back to his house,
“Jiang Ming’s strength should be higher than Linglong, or even much higher! My cultivation is too bad after all!” Chang Yiming smiled bitterly and continued his cultivation.
Under the pavilion, Linglong slumped right next to Jiang Ming as she looked at her with a face filled with queries.
“I can’t tell! I can’t tell!” Jiang Ming shook his head.
It would just cause Junior Sister to feel worried if they talked about it. She was better off not knowing about it. Jiang Ming sighed in his heart.
When Jiang Ming heard the conversation between Zui Hu and the two, he also checked their Status changes through the Human Path Record. Seeing that they were about to escape, he did not hesitate to move out, planning to pin them down and search through their memories.
When the trio heard the Reincarnation Hall’s reminder in their mind, the whole incident was recorded in the Human Path Record as well.
When Jiang Ming realized that they were going to be forcefully teleported back to where they came from, he tried using the Human Path Record to cut off their connection with the Reincarnation Hall and was successful.
Never did he anticipate that the self-destruct sequence was initiated, and it completely obliterated their soul and erased all traces of these outsiders.
“Reincarnation Hall. Are they the primary god? Or are they something similar to the Supreme Pagoda?”
“The last fluctuation seemed to be a probe but was blocked by my System, and it didn’t manage to discover me!”
“The Human Path Record can even cut off their connection!” Several thoughts crossed Jiang Mings’s mind as he tried to make sense of the situation.
The beneficiaries of the Reincarnation Hall had emerged today. Jiang Ming feared that this would probably happen again, and he had to be prepared..
