However, just as Chen Xuankong mentioned, no one in their Mystery Dao Sect could defeat the Rank 7 Black Mountain honey badger, let alone kill it. The creature was notorious for bearing grudges, so attacking it was out of the question. However, it was so stubborn that any attempt to lure it away had failed miserably.
This was why Chen Xuankong sought Curator for advice.
It was merely a shot in the dark since he did not think Curator was capable enough to solve their problem.
Since Curator had expressly stated that he had a way to remove the persistent honey badger from their sect’s entrance, he started listening attentively.
Lin Jin summoned him forward and whispered into his ear.
Chen Xuankong’s expression changed several times before a look of revelation surfaced on his face. Thrilled, he bowed at Curator.
“Xuankong is impressed by Curator’s knowledge. If we can chase away that hateful honey badger, our Mystery Dao Sect would be most grateful.”
Chen Xuankong seemed much more relaxed after obtaining the solution. After all, this wasn’t his problem alone and the entire sect had been troubled by it. From the sect’s leader, down to their most common disciple, everyone treated this issue seriously. Now that he had a solution, Chen Xuankong could not allow further delays. The moment Curator gave him an answer, he already knew that the method would succeed.
Being a half-immortal, he had a certain degree of knowledge of how things worked.
Chen Xuankong quickly excused himself. Lin Jin had some thinking to do too so he left as well. The other guests were left to their own devices, and they could choose to stay and talk with each other.
Qin Yunshang wasn’t in a hurry to leave so she greeted the other guests and probed them about Curator. She was also interested in the cultures of the mortals living in the mainlands.
Back when the great immortal tragedy occurred, Qin Yunshang had only been a young girl who just entered the Immortal Cloud Sect. She spent the next two thousand years cultivating within the extraterritorial zone. Even if she were to leave the sect, she was only confined to the extraterritorial zone.
For now, the mainlands were off-limits to immortals.
Hence, she was curious about the places these mortals came from. The information she gathered from her peers was minimal since they too had been confined to the extraterritorial zone for ages. Since the Visitation Hall had guests from other areas, she had to secure this opportunity to find out about the outside world.
Perhaps she would never have the chance to step foot into the mainlands ever again in this life. This only fanned the flames of her desire to know more about these mortals and their hometowns.
Because she was a woman, Qin Yunshang easily befriended He Qing, Madam Ghost Child, and Zhao Jingyan. The four girls chatted away peacefully.
After leaving the Visitation Hall, Lin Jin started thinking.
Although Qin Yunshang and Chen Xuankong said they would try to search for a nine sun quartz, Lin Jin knew this task would be quite challenging for them.
Qin Yunshang aside, Chen Xuankong would probably prioritize removing the honey badger for now.
Even if he could search the area for a fire attribute profound immortal afterward, what were the chances of him succeeding?
After all, whether or not a fire attribute profound immortal existed in the extraterritorial zone remained unknown.
That being the case, he couldn’t rely solely on them. Since he now knew how to promote Xiao Huo to Rank 6 and turn him into an immortal beast, he could not afford to wait any longer.
Lin Jin’s instinct told him to take the initiative.
The extraterritorial land!
Lin Jin planned to go there, not in the future, but now.

In terms of strength, Lin Jin’s cultivation was still far inferior compared to an immortal but he could always compensate for the shortcomings with his magic treasures.
The Immortal Binding Rope, Four Ocean Gourd, and Clear Wind Sword.
These items were good in offense and defense, so even without relying on pet beasts, Lin Jin had confidence he could hold his ground against immortals. Just Clear Wind Sword alone was already an immortal-grade item.
Also, Lin Jin had an immortal beast standard blood ghost that could generate a clone for him. In moments of desperation, this should buy him enough time to escape.
If he could help Xiao Huo evolve during this journey, everything would be worth it.
Nothing was free in this world. To obtain strength that could overpower enemies, he had to take risks.
After thinking it through, Lin Jin made a decision.
He would go!
After summoning a cloud, he continued his journey westward. He would have to pass through a never-ending no man’s land that spanned more than ten thousand miles before he could reach the extraterritorial area.
Lin Jin focused all his attention on maneuvering his cloud.
Due to the recent growth in strength, the speed at which he traveled on cloud was now faster than what an eagle could achieve. Although he was slower than Jin Chi, it was still an impressive speed.
For two days and nights, Lin Jin never stopped. All he saw was a desolate landscape and sand everywhere. In the beginning, trees dotted the scenery, but one day later, everything blended into one homogenous picture. There was not an ounce of life in this area. One couldn’t find even a single blade of grass, let alone a whole tree.
An average person or beast would surely die in a place like this. There was no hope of getting out alive.
This place was like a border of death, separating the extraterritorial land and the mainlands. In other words, it was risky even for experts who possessed above-average cultivation or eagle beasts to cross this area.
The bizarre wind patterns and sandstorms functioned like invisible walls as if to indicate that this place was the end of the world.
It wasn’t until Lin Jin saw the endless wall of miasma up ahead that he finally snapped out of his mental haze.
He could finally see it.
Frankly, because he had only ever heard of this place, now that he was seeing it with his own eyes, its appearance startled him.
Who would have thought this miasma would appear to be a wall thousands of feet tall that spanned the horizon. Even from his height and with his keen eyesight, Lin Jin couldn’t see the end of the wall.
While the miasma wall finally entered his view, it still took Lin Jin several hours of flying to get close to it. Once he was actually near enough, Lin Jin was startled again.
This miasma wall separated the extraterritorial zone from the mainlands, so if Lin Jin took one step forward, he would be within the extraterritorial zone. If he took one step back, he would return to the mainlands.
During the great immortal tragedy, many immortals perished, leaving only a few who escaped into this miasma wall to avoid the immortal devouring beast’s pursuit.
As for why the immortal devouring beast stopped pursuing them after they went beyond the wall, no one knew. It was, however, indisputable that the extraterritorial area had now become the immortals’ last safehaven. They had been hiding here for thousands of years now.
Aside from the immortals, due to the land’s horrible condition, the monsters here were terribly ferocious.
Lin Jin took a deep breath before stepping into the miasma.
The miasma’s corrosive properties weren’t as severe as Lin Jin had anticipated. Perhaps it was because of Qin Yunshang’s scented pouch, or perhaps he had a layer of water energy from the Four Ocean Gourd protecting him. It might also be due to the blood ghost’s enhancement of his physical body.
