The Geared Immortal

Chapter 768 - Returning To The Village

Chapter 768

…

Shin Jiao spent a week in the vast plain which he named Gateway Valley. After mapping the whole area and storing them in his database and in his mind, he was able to realize that the vast universe truly holds many worlds. In fact from his calculation alone, he already saw millions of gateways into different star systems and galaxies.

He was truly baffled to discover as such and the knowledge leads him to a greater understanding of the universe and the role of the immortal deities.

Vast and unending, that is the only thing that he could say.

This is because even though he has already seen the many known worlds, yet according to this universe's map, it only shows that there are still far more worlds and star systems out there that have never been discovered yet.

But what baffled him is that, according to his already opened memory, there should be a gateway towards planet Gaeus Ro and Earth. But no matter how hard he looks for it in this place, he could not find one.

With bafflement in his eyes, Shin Jiao tried to analyze the data he stored over and over.

Meanwhile, beside him, the woman named Maga Luan has already recovered from her wounds. What piqued Shin Jiao's interest at this time is the woman's physique. She has a natural regeneration in her body which could regenerate any wound she incurs in just 1 day and return her to her perfect form.

Upon thinking up to this point, Shin Jiao felt a faint blush on his face upon realizing why those men would be interested in her physique.

Plus, he also discovers that her golden blood seems to be special. This is because the area where her blood has dripped upon suddenly showed growth of life.

Shin Jiao has noticed this because of her tattered clothes which he has thrown on the side. After he changed her clothes, he noticed those tattered clothes he flung on the side suddenly showing some type of strange plant growing on them.

Maga Luan is currently meditating and is absorbing the rich energy in the air. In just a week, she has already reached the 69th level and is now trying to break through to the silver level. If she is able to do so, then she would gain more strength and will have a chance to be of use to Shin Jiao.

In fact, Maga Luan was truly thankful for Shin Jiao's help. The two have conversed every now and then and Shin Jiao realized that the woman was born on this planet. She is 20 years old according to this planet's calendar and is very talented as she has reached the 65th level in just 20 years.

She already understood and got a grasp of the universe's energy absorption method earlier in her life which made her supposed to be one of the most promising young people in the town of Gepard.

However, her mother hid this from the rest of the town's folks because her mother didn't want her daughter to be embroiled in the affairs outside their household until she reaches the silver level.

But who would have known that the incident would happen where her parents suddenly came home one day and could not recognize her anymore and even revealed her secret.

So now, many of those deranged soldiers have been after her physique in their desire to absorb her blood. She has died 3 times already and was tortured, ravaged, and shamed, and deep in her heart she is full of anger, despair, and has a great desire for revenge.

However, she was powerless and helpless at that time.

That's why when she saw Shin Jiao at that time in the dungeon, she already has decided to stick by his side. She knew that through him she can have that power, that ability... to make her stronger and more powerful than she is right now. If she could get that, then she would have her revenge on those who have wronged her.

She knew that those people were not her parents anymore and hence her anger is also directed towards them.

But upon learning the truth about what is happening from Shin Jiao, Maga Luan began to have a conflicting feeling in her heart. One of anger and resentment and then these negative emotions are mixed with worry, pity, and uneasiness which she felt for her parents.

At this point, she could not think of anything anymore except for her desire to be stronger and more powerful.

When Maga Luan's eyes open, she immediately noticed Shin Jiao working on some weird artifacts.

"Hmmm… You've reached the 69th level… That is good… Well, I'm also done with my business in this place. Would you like to return with me?"

"Master Shin, you don't have to ask me that. I told you, I will serve you with all my life. You have saved me, and all I ask is for you to help me save my parents from this predicament."

"Okay… If that is what you wished, then we can talk about that later. However, I will not tolerate those who slow me down. So you have to keep up with your training and continue progressing." Shin Jiao waved his hand and kept everything in his ring.

"Come here…" Shin Jiao suddenly extended his hand.

Maga Luan was a bit hesitant, but she still toughens her resolve and reached out and grabs his firm hands.

With their hands clasped together, Shin Jiao's mind began to imagine the place they are going to.

This is according to the map he has in the human race territory. This map within his mind shows a mountainous snowy area at the edge of the human territory. This is the only place that is near enough but would not suck every bit of energy in his body dry.

If he teleports to that place, then according to his calculation, there would still be at least one sphere of energy left in his dantian. So that place is already the best place he can reach. He would just have to recover in that place for a day or two and then proceed to return to his village.

With that in mind, Shin Jiao suddenly opens his meridians and began absorbing the energy in the air then combined it with the energy in his body. All of a sudden his figure and that of Maga's turned into sand.

His disappearance made the eyes of those watching from the skies turned serious with a bit of bafflement.

"What just happened?"

"Hahaha… This is truly interesting… This young man is truly interesting. I now agree to leave him the map of the galaxies. With this, the shadow beings and those demons would have a hard time finding that thing… Hahaha…"

"But…"

"No buts… There are no other worthy candidates to hold that precious thing than him."

"Then what if that shadow being in this land discovered him?… May I remind you all… We are playing a dangerous game here."

"Getting that thing in the immortal land and making him wreak a little havoc is part of the plan, that little shadow being could help temper this place, but he could still be kept under control..."

"That thing has already corrupted some saint-level individual in some places. If the war would begin, then these pampered beings would realize their true purpose and quickly grow."

"Well, that is the purpose of this training anyway..."

"Hmmm… Although the humans are the weakest of the races, they have the least number of corrupted ones."

"Well, we can only do that due to their weakness..."

"Anyway, control everything to a minimum before the Heaven and Earth opening…"

"Okay…"

"Fine... fine..."

…

Within the top of the snowy mountains, two figures slowly materialized from the ground.

After the snow formed into two human figures, the figures slowly moved to create cracks on their white and snowy surface.

Shin Jiao and Maga Luan could feel the low temperature in their surroundings.

"Hmm… I figure that it would be a snowy mountain. This is also better for us to be able to hide our presence… Plus the energy in this place is very convenient for me to recover…" Shin Jiao muttered.

"We have to create a cave first…" Shin Jiao said.

Maga Luan looks at the mountainside and found an area where it is a good place to create a small cave.

Using her small fists, she covered it with energy and she began carving out an artificial cave on the side of the mountain.

After that, she also created some rooms inside the cave where the two of them could stay for a while.

Once they enter the cave, Shin Jiao began to absorb and replenish his depleted energy. Meanwhile, Maga Luan also began doing some household chores as she prepares some food for the two of them.

For a week, the two just ate some roots and leaves because they are not sure if the empty plane was safe.

Now that they are in the human territory and inside a cave, Maga decided to cook a meal for the first time in a week.

Not long later, the nose of Shin Jiao was assaulted by a delicious smell, so he stopped cultivating and joined Maga for a nice dinner.

After the two ate, they went back to recover their energy.

Two days later, Maga was able to break through and reach the silver level at last. Meanwhile, Shin Jiao has also recovered enough energy. However, her breakthrough has caused them too much trouble this time.

For some unknown reason, as she was breaking through to the silver level or level 70, her mind was suddenly opened and tons of information enters her brain.

She began to have knowledge beyond her comprehension which made her almost faint after her breakthrough.

Not only that, it seems that every type of creature outside are now attracted to their location. Shin Jiao did not hesitate to pick Maga up and activated his bio-exoskeleton suit.

He steps on a flying sword and immediately soared to the skies.

He needed to escape the chase of these monstrous beasts which is at a high lord level.. If he gets caught, then Shin Jiao could only blame himself for being too slow and weak.
