Tian Jiang is a secluded, isolated place, inhabited by ancient legendary auspicious beasts and spirit beasts.
There are roughly three races: the Scale Race, the Feather Race, and the Mark Race.
The Scale Race is led by the auspicious beast, the Kirin, with the current leader being Fa Tian Hong, whose original form is a black Kirin, also known as Lin Tai.
The Feather Race is led by the auspicious bird, with the current leader being Yu Zhi Yi, whose original form is a Di雉 (Emperor Pheasant), also known as Zhi Jun.
The Mark Race is led by the auspicious beast, the Lion, with the current leader being Shi Fang She, whose original form is a Lion, also known as Ni Zhu.
Currently, the three races, along with their people, have gathered at the Holy Mountain, as the Divine Armor Incense, which appears once every few decades, is about to be born. Naturally, a struggle for it is about to begin, with the victor gaining a higher status.
Lin Ruo Mei has arrived at Tian Jiang.
She is a native of Tian Jiang. Though the gate to Tian Jiang is closed, the seal upon it has been lifted. Those familiar with Tian Jiang can find ways to enter, no need for excessive suspicion.
The current Tian Jiang is exceptionally lively, making one marvel at its vibrancy.
No one has noticed her, as many auspicious beasts and spirit beasts are eagerly awaiting the Holy Mountain's eruption, the release of the Divine Armor Incense.
“Father, I will definitely obtain the Divine Armor Incense.”
As she remained silent, waiting for the Holy Mountain's eruption, the heavens trembled. The distant Holy Mountain shook violently, erupting.
Endless flames soared into the sky, greeted by countless auspicious beasts and spirit beasts rushing toward the Holy Mountain.
Lin Ruo Mei, naturally among them, charged towards the Holy Mountain.
At an unknown moment, a flash of golden light erupted from within the Holy Mountain, a mysterious incense rising, even overshadowing the magnificent spectacle of the Holy Mountain's eruption.
This is the Divine Armor Incense.
Lin Ruo Mei, upon seeing it, moved swiftly, transforming into a stream of light, rushing toward the Divine Armor Incense.
In a blink, her figure vanished. When she reappeared, she stood before the Divine Armor Incense.
“Go.”
Lin Ruo Mei snatched the Divine Armor Incense and vanished, transforming into a stream of light.
“Huh, that was…?”
“This…?”
Fa Tian Hong, Yu Zhi Yi, and Shi Fang She were all taken aback. What was going on?
Logically, only Tian Jiang natives could obtain this. Outsiders couldn't possibly get it.
But the aura felt undeniably like that of Tian Jiang.
“Sassa, sassa, this old ghost feels Mu Shen's aura. Where, where is it?”
The Sword Devil, Fei Ren Zai, was incredibly excited.
“What, Sword Devil, you feel Mu Shen's aura?”
“Yes, don't you feel it?”
The Sword Devil, Fei Ren Zai, was taken aback. It shouldn't be possible. He wasn't from Tian Jiang, yet he could feel it so clearly, while they couldn't.
The three race leaders were instantly overwhelmed with excitement. Mu Shen, Mu Shen, finally there was news.
“Someone just obtained the Divine Armor Incense. Ordinarily, outsiders shouldn't be able to obtain it. If it's a Tian Jiang native, then there's no question. It seems Mu Shen sent someone to retrieve the Divine Armor Incense. Moreover, that aura… could it be Princess Ruo Mei?”
As Mu Shen's daughter, the three races knew, and the Sword Devil knew, so it must be her.
“That's definitely her, that little rascal Ruo Mei. No wonder that aura is so familiar. Let's follow. It must be Mu Shen's guidance, leading us back to Tian Jiang Mu Shen.”
“Yes, yes, let's welcome Tian Jiang Mu Shen back.”
Everyone was filled with excitement. Welcoming Tian Jiang Mu Shen back was their greatest mission, absolutely不容有失 (impermissible to fail).
“But what about the Tian Jiang Gate?”
“Sassa, sassa, no worries, this Sword Devil, Fei Ren Zai, is here. Can I not break the old seal? Let's go.”
The Sword Devil, Fei Ren Zai, personally went to the Tian Jiang Gate. With a roar, he struck the gate with a single sword blow.
The Tian Jiang seal had already been lifted, so it was needless to say, he effortlessly shattered the Tian Jiang Gate.
“Let's go, hurry up, and welcome Mu Shen back.”
“Yes, welcome Mu Shen back.”
Countless auspicious beasts and spirit beasts, following the Sword Devil, headed towards the Land of Cimmeria.
On the Land of Cimmeria, countless people saw countless auspicious beasts and spirit beasts racing past, filled with astonishment.
“What's happening?”
“I don't know. So many auspicious beasts and spirit beasts. Could something big be happening?”
“I don't know, but clearly something else is going on. We shouldn't underestimate these omens.”
“You're right. What kind of events could lead to so many omens?”
Everyone was clueless, naturally ignorant of the situation. Only those in the know would understand.
“Tian Jiang, finally arriving in the world. Mu Shen is also coming.”
The aura of Tian Jiang was familiar to both Yama and Tian Di Bi.
This undoubtedly declared Tian Jiang's arrival in the world.
Their thoughts and suspicions were beyond description, naturally, no need to know these unexpected situations, no need to doubt anything.
Knowing its terror was enough.
Every factor, every calculation, was to better describe it. In this moment, only strength could prove strength.
Otherwise, everything was false.
“Wang Bi, the time of three suns in the sky will be soon.”
“You're right. But I wonder if Su Zhen Ren and the others can manage it.”
“Hehe, Su Zhen Ren and the others always pose as the righteous path of Cimmeria. I believe they wouldn't let the people endure the ravages of Black Moon.”
“That's right, let them try. We'll just wait for the benefits. Hahaha, we can finally enjoy the sunshine again. It's so comfortable.”
Tian Di Bi felt this way, and naturally, Yama couldn't be left out.
He had fled the Black Sea Prison and arrived at Cimmeria. He was now planning another grand scheme. This was a matter of great importance and could not be taken lightly. He swore to become the victor.
“Tian Jiang, Mu Shen, humph. Wait, Yama will let you know what true mastery is.”
Regarding his current thoughts, only his inner constraints, the surprise they brought, seemed to give him visions of his victory, the delight of crushing his opponents, the benefits of expanding his territory.
These were part of his calculations, he couldn't miss them. However, his rebellious subordinates angered him.
Of course, all of this was within his calculations. As for the subsequent situation, he had to proceed step by step. He couldn't rush it, especially not in the current situation. He needed to wait patiently, proceed cautiously, see who emerged as the final victor. That would be wonderful, wouldn't it?
This feeling was worth it, filled with excitement, naturally hoping for a wonderful experience, worthy of delight.
He had waited for this anticipation, for the acquisition of greater power, for a long time. Now he had finally arrived.
This delightful prospect couldn't fail to bring joy. As for Mu Shen, he never placed him in his eyes. Mu Shen could never outsmart others, only be outsmarted. The time would come when he would once again suffer defeat. It was simple, wasn't it?
This was Yama's confidence, the confidence he never lost. He would let the world know his strength. That's right.
This was the proof of his strength, the power that would dominate Cimmeria in the future. He was undoubtedly the dominator.
