The Shame of Jujube City Was in My Past!
The Thief Saint, An Ying, has been out of Jujube City for two days.
Just as the Phantom Evil Lord said, the Thief Saint An Ying is an extremely flexible and adaptable person.
The An Ying inflicted on An Ying by everything that happened in Jujube City has now subsided considerably.
An Ying swore to the heavens that he would never set foot in that damned prison again in his lifetime!
Not only did he swear an oath, An Ying also summarized why he had encountered the events in Jujube City.
Information gap!
That's right, it's still about information asymmetry!
The main reason is that I don't know anything about Three Continents... I don't know anything about Jujube City, I know even less about Zhang Daquan... and I know absolutely nothing about the leader.
So many strange misunderstandings happen because of a lack of understanding.
So, An Ying didn't sit idle these past two days. Knowing the importance of information, An Ying these two days constantly learning about everything in the Three Continents.
To be fair, An Ying's mind is sharp enough. An Ying knows very well why Evil Shadow Continent has been consistently at a disadvantage ever since Xie Yue set foot on the Three Continents.
The first reason is a lack of understanding of the Three Continents, and the second reason is the arrogance of the Evil Spirit Clan.
The Nine Divisions of Evil Spirits believed they could sweep across Three Continents, but what happened?
Forget about sweeping them... the initiative is now in someone else's hands.
If, upon discovering the Three Continents, the first thing I did was send instead of that bastard Three Continents Xie Yue, I, An Ying, would have thoroughly understood everything about the Three Continents, without the threat of that supreme expert who slew the Nightmare Evil Lord.
As the saying goes, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!"
Therefore, An Ying has decided that regardless of whether he succeeds in stealing the Evil God Relics in the Vast Heaven Holy Land, he absolutely cannot lack knowledge about the Three Continents.
Even if I ultimately fail, as long as I return to the Evil Shadow Continent with the information I learned in the Three Continents, I will still be a great contributor.
Although Xie Yue learned some information about the Three Continents from the minds of the elites of the Ming Clan, to be honest, how much did Xie Yue actually know at the time?
Or perhaps, how much do those so-called chosen ones of the Ming Clan actually know about the Three Continents?
Even the Spirit Beast Continent, where the Ming Clan resides, has only just returned. The Ming Clan's understanding of the Three Continents is completely superficial...
That good-for-nothing Meng You left An Ying speechless... This Meng You is like a Meng You, using Nightmare Realm even knowing how to extract all the information about the Three Continents from everyone's heads and piece it together into a complete Three Continents?
As for the Zang Ling... An Ying doesn't want to mention it... The Zang Ling must know the Three Continents very well, otherwise, why the hell would he have surrendered?
Now, An Ying is not only frantically gathering information about the Three Continents, but An Ying also reminding himself... he absolutely cannot use the Thousand Illusions Phantom Art to transform into some kind of weirdo.
There isn't a single normal person in these Three Continents, and none of the people I transformed into are good people!
That's why I, An Ying, can be flexible and adaptable; otherwise, I, An Ying, would have been gone long ago... Therefore, for safety's sake, An Ying knows that every time I use the Thousand Illusions Phantom Art, I must find a sufficiently powerful opponent.
Seventh Rank...
This rank was the goal that An Ying set for himself; even if he used the Thousand Illusions Phantom Art, he would at least transform into Seventh Rank or higher powerhouse.
Otherwise, if I turn into those little kappa again, although it wouldn't be life-threatening, wouldn't I, An Ying, have any dignity?
An Ying the Holy Son of the Phantom Evil Spirit Clan, Future Holy Son of the entire Evil Spirit Clan, it's inappropriate for me to be constantly insulted like this!
Cao City is a medium-to-large city, much more upscale than Jujube City, a small city. Furthermore, the number of strong individuals in Cao City far surpasses that in Jujube City.
This place is paradise for An Ying!
Since entering Cao City, An Ying has seen at least three Seventh Rank cultivators... but An Ying did not choose to transform into them.
The reason is simple: although these people have sufficient cultivation, they are still in Cao City. Moreover, cultivators of this level are not ordinary little guys. They are either surrounded by groups of three or five subordinates or have countless friends visiting them. In addition, they themselves are still in Cao City.
If they were to change into each other under these circumstances, it would be easy for people to notice that two different people were present at the same time, thus increasing the risk of exposure.
Therefore, An Ying did not act rashly, but waited for the right opportunity and the best choice.
Persistence pays off. On the third day after An Ying arrived in Cao City, An Ying found a suitable target for transformation.
This person was an Eighth Rank cultivator... and this Eighth Rank cultivator was very low-key. He did not stay in luxurious hotels like other high-grade cultivators, nor did he have any companions with him.
The An Ying silently observed him for an entire day, discovering that he almost never left the small inn...
Even if I appeared in Cao City, I wouldn't be discovered by anyone after transforming into this person. And most importantly, he is the strongest person I found in Cao City, with Eighth Rank cultivation level. Even if he encounters any trouble, he doesn't need to use any Evil Spirit Power. He can handle almost anything by relying solely on the power transformed by my Thousand Illusions Phantom Art.
It's not that An Ying doesn't want to find a Peak of the Ninth Rank to transform himself.
The problem is, where in the Three Continents are there so many Peak of the Ninth Rank?
You're in the Vast Heaven Holy Land, and looking around, wow, so many Ninth Rank... But don't forget, what kind of place is the Vast Heaven Holy Land... Let alone entering Vast Heaven Holy Land, even those who can go there are all extraordinary figures in this world.
Although the Three Continents merged, the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth increased significantly, and countless cultivators broke through their own limits. However, for ordinary people, let alone the Ninth Rank, even the Eighth Rank might be an unparalleled achievement that many people have never seen in their lifetime.
Even in a medium-to-large city like Cao City, the Seventh Rank is practically the ceiling.
For most people in this world, the only place they can see powerful figures of the Eighth Rank or Ninth Rank, or even above the Ninth Rank, is within the Haotian Mirror.
Let alone in the Three Continents, even in the Evil Shadow Continent, Eighth Rank expert is considered a master.
Therefore, An Ying was very satisfied with his goal. Just as An Ying was preparing for the change, An Ying even more satisfying happened.
The Eighth Rank expert discovered by the An Ying actually crushed something that looked like a small flute in his hand under the cover of darkness...
An Ying knew... this should be the Flute of Space and Time he had heard about a few days ago, which was created by Feng Yuzheng of the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
You see... this is the difference between me, An Ying, and those idiots like Xie Yue. My understanding of information is far beyond what they can compare to. Although I haven't been in the Three Continents for long, I'm already an expert on the Three Continents!
I knew at a glance that it was the Flute of Space and Time. Not only did I know, but I also knew that it was extremely valuable. The Flute of Space and Time is a powerful teleportation tool. Unlike ordinary teleportation arrays, it doesn't require a large-scale setup. You only need to set the destination for the Flute of Space and Time in advance.
Then, when needed, you can crush the Flute of Space and Time to instantly activate the teleportation array and send you to the landing point you set earlier.
This thing can teleport incredibly fast... even in the middle of battle, you can escape in an instant, making it a true escape artifact. But its only drawback is that it's expensive!
But speaking of which, the teleportation system on the Three Continents is more advanced than that on the Evil Shadow Continent...
However, none of that was An Ying needed to consider right now. As the Flute of Space and Time was shattered, this Eighth Rank expert vanished from Cao City in a flash of white light...
An Ying didn't care where this guy's Flute of Space and Time would land him, but from this moment on, An Ying knew that there was no longer any risk in transforming into his appearance!
Thousand Illusions Phantom Art activated!
In an instant, the An Ying had transformed into the appearance of the person who had left using the Flute of Space and Time.
Not only appearance, but also aura, and even cultivation level were all simulated using the Thousand Illusions Phantom Art.
Feeling the power of Eighth Rank, An Ying revealed a satisfied smile. As a traveler who knew the Three Continents, An Ying knew that with this Eighth Rank cultivation, he wouldn't dare say he could roam freely across the Three Continents, but he could easily travel to almost any place in the Three Continents.
Moreover, with the help of his Eighth Rank cultivation, he was able to easily learn more about the secrets of the Three Continents!
With this Eighth Rank cultivation level in hand, An Ying knew that his next plan would go very smoothly!
Hmph! The shame of Jujube City is already a thing of the past for my An Ying!
From this moment on, I An Ying, have risen! I, An Ying, will never repeat the mistakes of the past!
As he familiarized himself with his own power, he poured himself a cup of tea and savored its aroma, An Ying smile spreading across his face.
Next, An Ying knew that he would use this transformation to gather all the information about the Three Continents and the Vast Heaven Holy Land, then travel all the way to the Vast Heaven Holy Land, eventually transforming into the appearance of a core disciple of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, infiltrating the Vast Heaven Holy Land, and obtaining the Evil God Relics in one fell swoop!
This series of plans... was practically perfect... not only did they obtain the Evil God Relics, but they also gained a comprehensive understanding of the Three Continents!
Just as An Ying was meticulously planning everything, a terrifying aura suddenly emanated from afar. Before An Ying could even figure out what was happening, this terrifying aura had already enveloped the entire inn.
The next second, while An Ying was still completely dumbfounded, the entire roof of the inn was ripped off.
The moment the roof was ripped off, An Ying saw a nightmare skeleton warhorse engulfed in ghostly flames galloping through the sky in the distance.
On the Nightmare Skeleton Warhorse, a man dressed entirely in black glared angrily at him!
"Yang Zheng! Do you think you can escape from Tantai Jing's grasp?! That old bastard Qiu Tian exposed you on the very first day he let you infiltrate my Demonic Sect! All the intelligence you obtained was just pre-arranged and prepared for you!"
"You think I didn't know you were hiding here? I've been waiting these past few days to lure the big fish behind you. The guy you were waiting for to come and meet you has already been captured by me Tantai Jing... Now... where do you think you're going to run to! Go to your cell and stay there!"
After speaking, the nightmare skeletal warhorse beneath Tantai Jing vanished in flames, Tantai Jing, surrounded by eerie spirits, instantly seized the An Ying in his hand...
An Ying:"???"
