Chapter 453: Lost In Another World (2)

/*unedited*/

The glorious morning light shines through the thick leaves of the forest like glittering gems in the sky. Meanwhile, because of the thick foliage, the sun barely lit the surroundings inside the forest making a gloomy atmosphere to those traveling in it.

In this kind of atmosphere, a figure is currently running in a certain direction.

It has already been two days since Shin Jiao began traveling. His direction is towards the town of Dis, or what is was previously called. He knew that if he goes to that town then it would be easier for him to reach the kingdom of Yi.

While traveling he has encountered a lot of beasts which he didn't waste and he also gathered more materials whenever he can detect them. Inside his ring, there are more materials than he has ever before.

Because of his cultivation, he can travel faster than before. If a normal person travels the path he just took it would have taken them 2 weeks already. However, it has only been 2 days for Shin Jiao.

Suddenly he stopped and in doing so his figure created a strong gust of wind that blew through the forest.

Not far from him, he suddenly detected a group of people being surrounded by a group of hostile beasts. And from the looks of it, they were just low-level cultivators trying to hunt some low-level beasts. However they have encountered a number of them, hence they are in pinch.

Shin Jiao carefully observes the situation as his figure stealthily appears on top of one of the tree branches.

"Hey, we should run towards the teleportation gate area. There are soldiers in that part." shouted one of the women in the group.

Upon hearing this, they all turn their sight in a particular direction.

Shin Jiao who is listening to their discussion was suddenly feeling happy. Although he was never in trouble while traveling because of his strength it was too boring and he needed to reach the kingdom of Yi as fast as he could. So a teleportation gate would be the fastest way.

But the people who turned their sight on that direction made a fatal mistake of diverting their gaze from their opponent. When Shin Jiao saw this he confirmed that these people are just newbies.

So when a beast pounces over towards the group of people, he immediately waves his hand and threw a couple of sharp sticks from the tree he is standing on.

Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!

Multiple beasts fell to the ground writhing in pain. Although a bit stunted the people began to act and killed those beasts that fell from Shin Jiao's attack.

It didn't take for them to finish the rest with Shin Jiao's assistance. Shin Jiao jumped down to the ground and walked towards the group.

"Mister, we thank you for the help… Our group really appreciates your assistance." The young man who looks like the leader of the group said while cupping his hands.

"One of you said that there is a teleportation gate here. Can I ask you guys to lead me there?" Shin Jiao asked with a smile.

As they are grateful, they took Shin Jiao with them. And after walking for about an hour, they reached a small cave where several armed cultivators are standing. Shin Jiao was surprised because he didn't actually detect this area even with the use of his absolute sense.

Not until he was 50 meters that he noticed the barrier in this place. He now knew that it has camouflage array for spiritual sense.

The group enters the ground and the cultivators checked them one by one. Shin Jiao has already changed his clothes to match those cultivators as he has many such clothes in Gubu's ring.

"Mister, to use the gate you have to pay, 50 low-grade spirit stones…" the man operating the gate said.

Shin Jiao just nodded his head and followed the line of people. He was a bit surprised to see many who are currently lining up inside the huge cave.

In the center of the cave is a circular platform with many glyphs and runes.

"I guess Agnes shared her knowledge in gates with the cultivators… This might be the reason why the pureblood demons can enter this land." Shin Jiao thought.

As he had a chance to travel with Agnes he knew of her power and ability. Her comprehension when it comes to gates is truly profound, more than his own knowledge, though his comprehension in runes and arrays are higher. So they can cooperate with each other perfectly at that time.

The line continues to push through and soon it was about to be Shin Jiao's turn and the group with him.

However, a cultivator suddenly began running towards the man supervising the security of the portal.

"Captain! Captain! We… we are in big trouble."

"What? What is happening outside?"

"Our scout detected a large number of 4th level beasts running towards our direction."

"4th level? We can take care of those, why are you so flustered?"

"Sir, it's not the beast that's running away is the problem. It's what are they running from…"

"What do you mean? Is there a higher level beast coming towards us?"

"No, sir… there is an army of rock ants coming. It's a bit early, but it is at this time of the year."

"Oh, no! We would be in trouble if those things reach this place and destroy the arrays…"

"How many people are left?" the captain asks as he turns his gaze towards the portal.

"Alright, let them pass and we will go with the last batch… move faster!" he commanded as he took out a few talismans inside his pocket.

He began throwing it all over the place. Shin Jiao knew that the captain intended to collapse the cave. This might be a way to prevent those rock ants from finding and destroying the array.

All the people inside are a bit scared upon hearing that the rock ants are coming.

Rocks ants are pest and dangerous. Although their level is not that scary, once they attack they attack in droves. And their path would be cleaned and those who stood in it would be devoured that even their bones will be chewed. Hence everyone was afraid.

After the last one was teleported, it was Shin Jiao and his group's turn and they were the last one. So when the captain saw this he signaled his men to immediately gather. However, it seems that they are far too many people to fit inside the array.

"Okay, you guys go first, and then the rest would follow… We have no choice but to defend this place first." The captain said.

Although Shin Jiao wanted to go first, it seems that many soldiers are also scared and only four of them were left behind along with the brave captain. So Shin Jiao and the four decided to prepare to fight.

"Young man, I am glad that a brave soul like you is willing to help us." The Captain said with a smile.

Shin Jiao just gave the captain a faint smile. He is not worried about the rock ants as he can see that they are just weak beasts. With his help, the four of them can safeguard the cave.

So they began to set up a defensive formation at the mouth of the cave.

Suddenly, the beast tide appears but none saw through the cave's camouflage so they are still safe. Only those who carry a mercenary or adventurer ID can find the cave, and of course, those with higher cultivation who are aware of the cave's rune signal or can see through camouflage.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao saw a huge snake-like beast that turns towards them.

"Incoming enemy!" shouted the captain as he prepares his sword.

The captain and his group are cultivators in the gold core realm. Hence they are not afraid of the enemy. The snake immediately spits its acid venom towards the cave's entrance. It wanted to hide inside the cave. However, its venom wasn't able to penetrate.

"Captain they were able to pass through! We have to go now!" shouted one of the soldiers as he immediately prepares the teleportation portal array.

After the preparation, the Captain rushes towards the array along with Shin Jiao and the rest. The four of them stood as the circular array underneath their feet glows brightly. The captain immediately activated the talisman around the cave.

Meanwhile, the snake outside who began attacking the barrier stopped as its body is already swarmed with the countless numbers of rock ants. It just took a few seconds before its huge body vanishes into thin air that even its blood was devoured.

The ants began gnawing at the barrier and cracks began to appear. This scene made everyone inside the portal really afraid. Since the portal would take time to activate, they watch in horror as the defensive shield array they put up slowly crumbled against the might of the countless fist-size ants.

However, they soon felt happy as the portal has suddenly activated and one by one their figures slowly vanished.

But Shin Jiao noticed something as he was spreading his absolute sense. He immediately felt that something was wrong and look down on the ground. The small tremor suddenly began to be vigorous and shook the whole cave. And as soon as his figure banished the ground broke into pieces.

His remaining sense caught a glimpse of the monster he once fought for the first time.. The first powerful beast he encounters inside the Daemon forest, the rock ant queen.
