not dare to speculate."However, it was precisely because the Spirit Lord admired your father that Jiang Qiuyang, an outsider cultivator, was able to leave the Linggu Domain safely after entering it!"...Man's words made Jiang Yun's heart flash with a hint of doubt.
This young man before you, his true cultivation level is only at the first level of the Cave Heaven realm.
Their conversation wasn't much more than a few words. How could he have guessed I had just arrived at the prison
If he judged someone simply based on their unfamiliar appearance, that would be highly unlikely.
This year, I followed the firebird chasing meteors, traveling east and west, and visiting many places.
Even at a distance of at least hundreds of thousands of miles from the spot where he had just entered the prison,
Even if someone has a great memory and a wide circle of friends, it's impossible for them to know and remember the appearance of every single person in such a vast area!
Although doubtful in his heart, Ginger Cloud’s face showed no trace of it. He calmly asked, “Why do you think so”
The man, with a touch of hesitation, glanced at Ginger Cloud before replying, "Because sir saved my life!"
This reason caused Ginger Cloud to involuntarily frown.
Although those who are thrown into the prison are called criminals, these so-called criminals are merely relative to the Dao Temple.
This doesn't mean that every person in prison is truly a wicked person.
At least there will still be some kindhearted people, so helping others is not enough to determine if the other party has just entered the Dao Prison!
This reason made Jiangyun a little hard to accept.
Seeing Jiang Yun's frown, the young man immediately guessed Jiang Yun's confusion and hurriedly continued, "Master misunderstood my meaning."
"From the moment you rescued me just now until this point, no companions have appeared. It seems that you are the only one who came here."
In fact, Gingercloud had a companion, the Firebird. However, even in death, the Firebird refused to step into the reincarnation cave.
Ginger Cloud naturally wouldn't say that, only continuing to listen silently.
"In the depths of the prison of hell, unless one possesses extraordinary strength, no one would dare venture into this reincarnation cave alone."
This reincarnation cave, although named "reincarnation," implying rebirth, is actually the most dangerous place in the entire prison of hell!
After all, not everyone can easily have a tribute that would make the Golden Toad willing to take action!
Upon hearing the man's explanation, Jiang Yun's mind raced, and she finally understood.
This reincarnation cave is undoubtedly a haven for criminals sent to the Dao Prison. However, to obtain the help of the Golden Cicada in removing the poison, one must offer a so-called tribute, such as the feathers of a Firebird.
But not everyone can easily receive such offerings.
As for the firebird feathers, in over a year of being around the firebird, Jiang Yun had only encountered two occasions where cultivators traded beast pills for feathers.
Even though there might be other offerings, it goes without saying that they are also undoubtedly difficult to obtain.
Then for those cultivators whose bodies are already saturated with toxins but who cannot offer tribute, the only way to get the golden toad to help remove the toxins is to stay near the Rebirth Cave.
Waiting for other gift-bearers to arrive and then killing them!
Even if everyone has a contribution, there is still a high probability of fighting.
Because the Reincarnation Cave isn't enough to just enter once, offerings should naturally be as many as possible!
Therefore, entering the Reincarnation Cave, whether to snatch from others or for self-preservation, it is inevitable to gather as many people as possible to bolster one's strength.
Not only was he alone, but after seeing the unconscious man, instead of robbing him of his offerings, he actually helped him. It seemed like he didn't understand the importance of the reincarnation cave and the offerings.
It was through this that the man judged he had only just arrived at this prison.
After understanding this, Jiang Yun's heart couldn't help but feel a bit touched.
Although I had carefully considered everything, I hadn't anticipated that my unintentional act of saving someone would inadvertently reveal that I was new to the Dao prison.
It seems I need to be more careful in the future.
In addition to that, Jiang Yun also discovered something else from the man's explanation.
The man called the golden toad "sir!"
Those who previously exchanged colors for feathers from the Phoenix also referred to the Phoenix as Lord Fire God.
Judging from this, it seems that within this prison, demons and beasts are held in particularly high regard.
>... I just don't know if this reverence is for all monsters, or if it's simply because they want something from the Firebird and Golden Toad.
Ginger nodded, and didn't continue to ask about the issue. Instead, she changed the subject and said, "What is your offering"
This is also the question that Ginger has always been curious about.
A toad can help cultivators remove toxins. What exactly is needed
"Fusan leaves!"
The man clearly knew that Ginger Cloud definitely wouldn't know the origin of Fusang either, so after he finished speaking, he gave an explanation: "There is a kind of tree in the Dao Prison called the Fusang tree."
This tree has very strange characteristics; its seeds come from fireballs ejected from the sun.
This tree takes fire as its soil and nourishment, rooting itself in the flames, growing and blossoming within them. But once the fire goes out, it withers away.
The leaves of the Paulownia tree are what Lord Toad needs as a tribute.
As an alchemist, Jiang Yun knew quite a bit about the plants and trees of the world, but this Paulownia tree was something he had never heard of before.
There are even trees that grow in fire!
...and he has personally experienced thirteen celestial showers of fireballs, yet he has never seen a hibiscus tree. It is not hard to deduce that this hibiscus tree must also be extremely rare.
However, this also made him realize that all the tributes demanded by the golden toad were inextricably linked to fire.
After clearing up his doubts, Jiang Yun cupped his hands towards the man and said, “Now that most of the poison in your body has been removed, and the fire rain has also ended, I shall take my leave!”
"Wait!"
The man hurriedly called out to Jiang Yun, "Sir, since you are also alone and it is extremely difficult to survive in this prison, why not go to my family"
Although our family is not particularly wealthy or powerful, we do have some resources. That's why we are able to live near Peach Blossom City.
"Apart from the unavoidable poison gas, survival wasn't too difficult."
Jiang Yun frowned again slightly and said, "What is Taoyuan City"
The man patted his head and said, "I was rash. My benefactor has just arrived and naturally doesn't know about Taoyuan City. But within this level of the underworld prison, Taoyuan City is a true paradise, a place that all cultivators dream of entering!"
"Although the environment in this prison is harsh, there are a few places where life can be found even in the midst of despair. Peach Blossom City is one such place."
"It's called a city, but in reality, it's just a massive mountain valley surrounded by several mountains that act as natural barriers. A long time ago, it was discovered and chosen as a dwelling place by some powerful individuals."
As time passed, more and more people entered it. After countless generations of masters' joint efforts, this valley was transformed into a town.
"Not only does it have all the necessary resources for cultivation, but also several special teleportation arrays designed to filter out toxins. As long as you pay a certain price, you can absorb pure spiritual energy within these arrays."
"That Fushang leaf also comes from within Taoyuan City!"
At this point, the man suddenly lowered his voice and said: “There are even rumors that the first batch of criminals who discovered Taoyuan City back then have already left Dao Prison!”
First published on the Traditional Chinese Novel Network could it be that Young Master Xuan is worried that I would renege in front of so many people”"Xuan Yi shook his head and said, “Of course I’m not worried, but do you think that given the situation, i...
