Journey to the Pinnacle

Chapter 176: News

Tang Yin whizzed through the air with his wings. Flying in the air with almost no worries and so freely was refreshing.

With his newfound cultivation and speed, it would take Tang Yin only a few days compared to half a month to reach Sea Star City which was on the other side of the south zone.

One day, as Tang Yin was flying through the air, brushing against the breeze. He sensed a few cultivators heading in his direction.

This did not bother him, nothing below the Spirit Ascension Realm could hurt him. This was not only because of his own strength but also because of the Heavenly Demon Robe. freeweɓnovel.cøm

Despite this, being the cautious individual he was, Tang Yin remained alert.

As the cultivators neared him, Tang Yin determined them to be 3 Qi Transformation Realm cultivators.

Cultivators below the Qi Transformation Realm cultivators could not fly. Therefore, most would not leave their island unless they possessed a special method which could avoid the sea and keep them safe.

Only Qi Transformation Realm cultivators dared to fly above the sea, but they still had to remain cautious and vigilant in case of any ambushes conducted by sea beasts.

Tang Yin did not avoid the Qi Transformation Realm cultivators, he had no reason to do so.

As both parties neared each other, they naturally sensed each other. Neither decided to avoid the other.

Before long, they met.

Tang Yin slowed down, he was not expecting any battles or conversations. He would slowly go past the other cultivators to show that he was not a threat.

The other cultivators were 2 middle-aged men and an old man. The middle-aged men possessed 3rd-stage Qi Transformation Realm cultivation and the old man was a 5th-stage Qi Transformation Realm cultivator.

Tang Yin noticed the solemn and heavy expressions on their face.

’Something must have happened.’ Tang Yin stopped. For Qi Transformation Realm cultivators to wear such expressions was rare. Something of large importance must have occurred.

Tang Yin saluted the cultivators, "Fellow cultivators, has anything happened recently?" He asked with goodwill and no evil intentions.

The 3 cultivators looked at each other with suspicious gazes.

"Are you a foreigner?" The old man step forward and questioned.

Tang Yin was surprised, the old man had guessed correctly, or was it a guess?

"That’s right." There was no need to hide being a foreigner. From the memories he had plundered, foreigners were not treated any differently from the cultivators dwelling in the Devil Sea Region.

"Then it makes sense that you do not know." The old man responded bleakly.

"Over the past few months, there has been tension between cultivators and the Demonic Beasts from the north zone. A few weeks ago, the north zone suddenly attacked the borders of the west and east zone. They will most likely attack the south zone next, it is best to be far away from the border when they attack." The old man explained and cautioned.

Tang Yin was taken aback, he did not expect such a thing to happen during his absence. "Fellow cultivator, how can the north zone have enough power to attack the west and east zones at the same time and now be aiming for the south zone? Are they really that strong?" He was sceptical of the old man’s words. If the north zone was so strong, they should have already taken over the Devil Sea Region a long time ago.

"The east, west and south zones are not united. They are fighting against the north zone separately. Even so, the north zone should not be so powerful. However, there are rumours of multiple Rank 5 Demonic Beasts personally attacking and even a Metamorphose Demonic Beast leading them." The old man spoke of the things he knew or heard.

Tang Yin’s expression changed. A Metamorphose Demonic Beast was equivalent to a Principle Step cultivator.

’If the rumour is true, then shouldn’t the west, east and south zone each have their own Principle Step cultivator?’ Tang Yin thought to himself. The middle-aged men and the old man probably did not know about Principle Step cultivators. It was futile asking them and inciting their greed for this knowledge.

"Thank you, Fellow cultivators. This information is very useful." Tang Yin saluted the cultivators again.

"There is no need to be so courteous, this information is widespread among the cultivators of the Devil Sea Region. You would have found out sooner or later." The old man returned the salute.

After saying their farewells, the middle-aged men and the old man flew off into the distance.

Tang Yin remained on the spot pondering his next course of action.
