I Can Travel between Two Worlds-Chapter 167 - 119: Divine Techniques, Earth Escape Technique!

Chapter 167: Chapter 119: Divine Techniques, Earth Escape Technique!

Sure, here is the translation of the text:

Such means, I’m afraid only an Immortal could achieve...

Wang Lishan laughed upon hearing this and said:

"Would you like to hear the latest speculation from the think tank?"

"Actually, they were initially startled by this matter as well, after all, making everyone in the city forget the concept of leaving is simply too incredible..."

"But considering your situation, and the Jade Belt Scholar also wants to escape by digging underground..."

"Ultimately, we concluded that this array doesn’t make people lose the concept of leaving the city... it only causes a certain degree of mental misdirection... making people unable to remember to leave Jade Belt City."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement upon hearing this.

Indeed, if it’s only mental misdirection, it’s much simpler.

A Mid Qi Refining Cultivator could learn a minor technique to bewilder ordinary mortals.

To bewilder cultivators, the requirements for realm and divine soul strength are much greater...

At this moment, Wang Lishan continued:

"However, even so, bewitching the minds of millions in the entire city... the power is indeed exceptional!"

"According to our judgment of the power in the Cultivation Realm, even a Nascent Soul Cultivator would find it difficult to achieve this!"

"Therefore, we estimate that this array must have some sort of limitation..."

"For example, the reason you weren’t affected by the array and still thought of leaving the city is likely because your divine soul strength is tremendously strong... surpassing Foundation Establishment Perfection!"

"This should be a dividing line. Below Foundation Establishment Perfection will be affected by the array, while above it will not!"

"As for the Jade Belt Scholar not being affected, on one hand, he is also at late Foundation Establishment stage, with a remarkable divine soul... on the other hand, he hasn’t been in Jade Belt City long enough! Not yet affected by the array..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen suddenly realized:

"Uncle Wang, you mean that this array existed long ago... but it never sealed the city, only gradually misled the thinking of the beings in the city!"

"So when the array was activated, the mortals and cultivators in the city had no thought of leaving Jade Belt City long before... naturally, they wouldn’t notice anything amiss?"

Wang Lishan nodded and said:

"Exactly! But you also overlooked something, considering the number of cultivators in Jade Belt City, it seems besides you and the Jade Belt Scholar, there should be other cultivators who noticed something unusual..."

"Perhaps, among the thousands of cultivators, is there a possibility that a Core Formation stage loose cultivator might be lurking and has realized it as well?"

"Perhaps, you should go search in the city... you might find clues!"

Lin Chen slightly nodded upon hearing this.

According to the think tank’s speculation, there should still be some cultivators in the city unaffected by the array at this time.

Or, they realized the city sealing by the array but didn’t dare directly confront the Puppet Hall and Ghost-Exorcising Sect.

They could only hide in the shadows, seeking opportunities to leave the city.

If Lin Chen could find this force, the possibility of escaping Jade Belt City would be greatly increased.

"Alright, I will pay attention to this matter!"

Lin Chen nodded and said.

Wang Lishan glanced at the time, knowing that Lin Chen’s next crossing was not far off.

So he patted Lin Chen’s shoulder, comforting him:

"Chen, if you really cannot escape, go hide underground and neutralize everything!"

"Behind you is the entire High Martial World... even the karmic force that the cultivators fear should be borne by our whole world together!"

Lin Chen nodded silently without speaking.

Soon, with the resetting of the crossing time, Lin Chen’s vision changed.

...

Outside Jade Belt City, a thousand feet below ground.

After returning, Lin Chen used the Earth Escape Technique to come back to the surface.

At this moment, the dawn was just breaking.

He looked toward the direction of Jade Belt City, muttering:

"Originally, my idea was to make a trip to the Chaotic Burial Mound outside the city..."

"But now it seems finding other loose cultivators in the city might be a better solution!"

Thinking of this, Lin Chen dispatched Long Ba and Feng Jiu to search for clues in the city.

Originally, Lin Chen hadn’t thought in this direction, so he missed many details.

But having set his mind to search, things unexpectedly became simpler.

For instance, Lin Chen noticed several cultivators always sitting in the inn opposite the Black Dog Gang, drinking tea and eating.

They’d stay for an entire afternoon and come by every one or two days.

After several days, Lin Chen roughly determined the identity of these cultivators.

Thus, he sent Long Ba and Feng Jiu to contact them.

...

Inn opposite the Black Dog Gang.

Feng Jiu walked into the inn, glanced around, then sat down at a table.

At this moment, two cultivators were already sitting there, chatting and laughing.

Upon seeing Feng Jiu, they curiously asked:

"Friend, what brings you here?"

Feng Jiu frowned, snorted coldly, and said:

"I’ve noticed you for a long time! Haven’t you been tracking me these days?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Hearing this, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators’ faces changed, coughing, they said:

"Friend, you’ve misunderstood..."

"Misunderstood? If I misunderstood, why did your faces change?"

With that, Feng Jiu directly grabbed the wrist of one cultivator.

This cultivator’s face immediately changed when he felt the tremendous force on his wrist.

His companion wished to resist but was grabbed by Long Ba with one hand as well.

Then, Long Ba and Feng Jiu dragged these two cultivators away from the Black Dog Gang’s place and into an inn room.

"Friends... you misunderstood!"

These two cultivators, who were gathering intelligence on the Black Dog Gang, immediately changed their expressions and said hurriedly.

They had never encountered such tough cultivators who resorted to action at the drop of a hat...

Feng Jiu coldly snorted and said:

"Of course, I know you weren’t tracking me!"

"You were... investigating the Black Dog Gang, right? Or should I say... investigating the three strange incidents in the city?"

Upon hearing this, the two cultivators’ expressions slightly changed and tentatively asked:

"Friends, do you mean..."

"Yes, we are also investigating! How about we exchange some intelligence?"

Feng Jiu said frankly.

The two cultivators exchanged glances and said:

"So, there are still sane friends in the city... if that’s the case, then come with us..."
