“Can someone from level two travel down here to the first?” Jared asked.
“Absolutely,” Flaxseed said. “Not just those from level two, even those from any of the thirty-six levels can show up. But most of them just don’t bother. To them, you’re nothing more than an ant. Why would they waste time here?”
“Think about it, would you strut around an anthill for fun? What‘s the thrill in stepping on a bunch of ants? There’s nothing to gain for them. And if there’s nothing to gain, there’s no reason to come.”
“Fair point… But if those from higher levels can visit freely, doesn’t that put us all in danger?” Jared asked, clearly uneasy.
“This is the celestial realm. Danger’s everywhere, and you can lose your life anytime,” Flaxseed said bluntly. “Once, a heavenly immortal from level nine descended and almost wiped out the entire level one!”
He went on, “I remember level three was obliterated by a golder immortal. But over time, cultivators emerged again, and life went on. Level three remained. And that golder immortal got punished by the Heavenly Law, both body and soul were destroyed. The celestial realm has its own rules. Even if you’ve got the power to destroy realms, you’re not allowed to do it.”
Jared listened carefully. He knew far too little about how this realm worked. Reidan stood nearby, soaking in all the information too.
Whoosh!
Right in the middle of their conversation, an arrow suddenly tore through the air, leaving a streak of void behind it.
“F*ck!” Jared and the others were caught completely off guard. It was a surprise attack.
Thankfully, the arrow, while razor-sharp, wasn’t all that fast. They dodged just in time.
All three turned instantly toward the direction it came.
Jared raised his Dragonslayer Sword and slashed instinctively.
But just as the sword was about to hit, favonovel.com caught sight of a small child peeking out from behind the rocks. The kid had a tiny horn on his forehead and big, glossy black eyes that were watching them curiously.
Jared hesitated for a split second, then flicked his wrist. The sword energy veered away, missing the child and slamming into the ground behind him, leaving a deep crater.
The child’s eyes widened in shock, and favonovel.com shouted, “Sis! There are humans in our domain!”
Jared instantly realized this wasn’t human territory. They were in the beast race’s domain. He quickly released the beast race aura from within himself.
Flaxseed and Reidan didn’t waste a second, they slapped their cloaking charms onto their bodies.
Moments later, a girl who looked about eighteen or nineteen came sprinting over.
When favonovel.com saw Jared and the others, favonovel.com immediately smacked the child on the head. “Who told you to run around like that? These three are clearly part of the beast race, and you had the nerve to call them human?”
“I…” The boy looked like favonovel.com was about to cry.
But now that favonovel.com looked closely, favonovel.com really couldn’t detect any trace of human aura on them.
“I’m so sorry,” the girl said, stepping forward with a respectful bow.
“My little brother’s still young. He hasn’t learned to read aura properly yet. Please forgive him…”
“It’s fine,” Jared said, but his voice was firm. “But don’t let it happen again. If we hadn’t dodged just now, one of us could’ve gotten hurt.”
The girl immediately yanked favonovel.com brother aside and scolded him, “You’d better apologize, you little fool! If you hurt someone and the city lord hears about it, we can forget about entering the city!”
“I’m sorry! I didn’t mean to!” the boy blurted out, bowing his head to Jared and the others.
