Journey Of An Unknown - Chapter 13

Ren Song gave a teleportation talisman to Zou Shen before using one himself to return to the Iron Mountain Empire. He told Zou how to use the talisman, now that he could use it on his own with Qi.

Ren Song had things to do now in Iron Mountain Empire so he would be sending someone else to the shop in this city. He also reminded Zou Shen if needed anything he could go a Ren Clan operated shop in the continent. He told him that the order would be send to the owners of the shops about his identity, Ren Song gave his word that his identity would not leak out of the mouth of these owners. There were not many shops in the continent as Ren Clan was busy monitoring the currents inside their own empire that they stopped expanding their business operations. Zou Shen could only trust on the promise made by Ren Song, still he believed him. This man looked like he would kill whoever did not obey his strict order and the Ren Clan sounded like fanatics themselves to not listen to orders from a person of authority like Ren Song.

The Ren Clan was only in the arms business currently, many high-quality weapons and armours were manufactured in the empire then exported to different powers according to the deal. They would smith weapons and armours for common cultivators, armies and higher powers. The weapons and armours would differ in qualities according to the request some sect would request for a treasured weapon for their core disciples or themselves. Ren clan would be given the materials or pay for the materials to Ren clan, so they didn’t have to provide for the materials. The master realm smiths of the Ren clan would work on creating the weapon and then export it to the person who provided the materials or paid for it.

Many people owed the Ren clan in some way, the Ren clan smiths collected what they needed sometimes they didn’t get any payment for their work but instead be given a favour. Even the Red Rain sect owed many favours to the Ren Clan, same for the great Luo clan. Today many major powers owed something to the Red clan.

Zou Shen didn’t know anything about the reputation of the Ren Clan as he had just started to travel the Shattered Jade Lands. Still to the others the clan was very well known, not because of their smiths but also because of Ren Song. The Immortal Realm cultivator of the Ren Clan, even the top 5 sects in the Bright Spirit continent would not want to fight the Ren Clan because of his strength. Ren Song was the youngest Immortal Realm cultivator in this continent as the rest of the hidden Immortals Realm cultivators were old, some who were born in the ancient era of the continued.

While Ren Song looked like a middle-aged man, he was very old cultivator lived for thousands of years. One Immortal Realm cultivator had passed away during this century after failing to breakthrough his stagnation. The power he was associated with fell into a decline due to the death of such a powerful person.

Zou Shen was not thinking about any of such things, he was more about the shop which was left behind with an owner. From what he could guess that Ren Song didn’t have servants or smiths in this building. He was told that someone would come to take his place here soon. This place felt very empty without anyone here to run it.

He walked out of the shop and looked back towards the backyard of the shop. He had finally taken a step into the cultivation; it was all alien to him now. What realm of cultivation was he in. He would need time to find his place in this world, now more than ever he needed to reach the grand city of

Feathers Peak for the selection tournament. He could not participate but just watch and he would have to judge the strength of the generation he was present in. He had only met Xiaoshan and heard of the Red Rain empire’s prince Zhou Hanrong. There will be more geniuses and talents trying to get into the Red Rain sect that he would get to see.

Zhou Shen had told Ren Song where he would be going next. He just hoped he would not disturb him all the time, he clearly stated to him he wanted to be left alone.

He started walking towards the old lady’s tailor shop on the main road. He didn’t speed his way towards the shop as he was still getting used to the way his new body worked. It was also in the final phase of change after the quick recovery caused by the ordeal. His bones and organs had ended in their transformation to look and function like normal human beings, only his blood was remaining in the transformation process. He had lost all his previous blood in his body, so the new blood would take time to transform from the Infused Qi in his body.

He was already planning on new things to experiment with once his body stabilized fully, after all the thinking and walking he finally reached the shop of the old lady tailor. It was near mid-night now and he was late from the time he was told to come and get his custom dress. His clothes would be unlike anything in this world, it was what he hoped for.

He entered the shop, he found the old lady sitting in her chair behind the large desk, with clothes and fabrics spread out on top of it. The old looked at Zou Shen entering, he was very late than the given time. If not for his special request and the price, the old lady would have closed her shop for the day.

He greeted the old lady in a sorry tone, “I am very sorry for being late something came up and I couldn’t make it in time, please forgive this young one.”

The old lady didn’t bother saying anything she just put the dress he requested on the giant table. When he saw the black and gold dress of Seimei from Onmyoji, he was over the moon as the dress was created exactly as he had designed.

He asked for a place to change into the new dress, the old lady pointed to the left corner of the shop where there was a room for changing. He went in and changed into the Onmyoji dress immediately.

He came out after a while, he kept on checking with his spiritual sense for any shoddy work. There was none in the dress, it was perfectly recreated in this world.

The old lady was amazed by how now Zou Shen looked, even with his average looking face he still looked above average in this dress. She knew when she saw the design that it would be beautiful to look at. Now looking at it now it was more beautiful and otherworldly than she imagined.

Zou Shen had a charming smile on his face as he very happy, he immediately took out the 400 thousand spirit stones and added 100 thousand more. When the old lady declined it, he insisted on it. He stated it was something he really wanted to be made well and what he got was perfect in form. If she didn’t take the additional 100 thousand then he would be very ashamed of getting this for cheap.

The old lady after some back and forth finally accepted the additional spirit stones. She would use the spirit stones to break from, the Mortal Human Realm to Core Realm. Exchange the remaining stones for the Gil currency in the auction house of the Vivid Stone City.

After respectfully bowing to give his thanks to the old lady he left the shop, he went towards the other entrance on the other side of the city which lead into the mountain ranges and across to the Feathers Peak city.

There were not many people about where he was heading, so he just walked at a normal pace alone and reached the exit of the town. He didn’t mind the looks people gave him, the women thought it was beautiful looking dress and males thought it was ridiculous due to jealousy from the women reactions to his Onmyoji dress. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com www.webnovel.com for visiting.

To Zou Shen it did what he set out to do with dress be something otherworldly beautiful. It would make people notice him even with his average looks. He did make some changes from the original design for ease of movement to his hands and legs. It still looked beautiful and the same, he had to make the changes for his sword. If he was a spell caster who mastered and use spell techniques as a way of fighting, then the full original design would fit his style.

As he reached the exit his blood and fully transformed and he could use his body fully now, there was no need to be slow for the rest of the journey. He still walked a few distance out of the city and looked back the Vivid Stone City, from this hilltop which lead to the mountain range he could see the city out in the distance.

He had met many people here, he had many experiences, he still remember he came here for simple rest and to get a cheap sword and just earn 1000 Gil. He didn’t get to rest at all since he reached near the city, he was sleepless since setting foot in this city. He had to stand in the open market sell nothing then go to find an inn. He didn’t get a room and was told all the places were filled so he decided to sell his items at the Red Alchemist sect building in the city and book it out from the city after buying a cheap sword for practice and items he needed.

He rushed towards the Red Alchemist sect building and met with Old man Chen, he sold all his items he wanted to sell there. He earned a lot from selling there specially 1 million Gil for the 5 Blood Clovers to Old man Chen. Then he left the building and rushed towards the tailor shop of the old lady to give his design and see if she could recreate the Onmyoji dress same as his design. She said to come back yesterday evening and it was midnight when he got to wear his new clothes.

After the tailor shop, he went to the Ren Clan Blacksmith shop and got his sword Shi Jian from Ren Song. The sword turned out to be more than he could ask for as it helped him break through his ordeal in creating his own path in cultivation. He destroyed his own body and rebuilt it from inside. After the ordeal he got talked into becoming the guardian for the Iron Mountain Empire and now he out of the Vivid Stone City finally.

He also met Xiaoshan, but he knew deep inside that he would meet that chaos creating heavenly beauty. They would meet during the Red Rain sect selection tournament. Even if he tried to hide, he was sure that if she caught a glimpse of him, she could immediately catch him to torture him.

Zou Shen bowed towards the Vivid Stone city giving it thanks, he then turned around walked towards the mountain range following the path. He closed his eyes in meditation and dashed forward with the bamboo in hand, swinging it from up and down to right and left as he did before he entered the city.

This time his movements were fast unlike before where he only used his physical strength to increase his speed, now he could also use his Infused Qi to use the Wind Qi to travel through the air. He was letting the wind pass through his body, giving him no resistance to the air in the path. He used his feet to launch himself forward to cover great distances, if he jumped, he could reach great heights.

He did try it and he jumped very high even more than tallest trees on the mountains. Sadly he didn’t stick the landing falling face down onto the ground.

He realized he didn’t need to focus on his movements to up his cool factor.
