Storing the Fire Dao Vein back inside his World Crest, Jian Shen with a curious look on his face finally arrived at the location where the only living being other than wild animals without proper intelligence was at.Having spent almost an entire week here, Jian Shen could say that he found it quite boring due to how there were no humans or living beings of the other race here after all of them ran away.
Still, he couldn"t refuse how bountiful his gains were in this Ancient Rock Domain due to which he began thinking that he should go from one Medium Domain to another and turn into his dragon form after which he would take all of the resources away just like he did here.
However, such an idea didn"t last for long before Qingyu explained how he shouldn"t do such a thing. Not for the current time being anyway.
This was because there existed some forces in the Dao Realm who preached the words of justice and stuck to those principles.
And as long as those forces existed, Jian Shen would not be able to go around plundering every Domain he felt like for a long time before they found out about it and started chasing him in order to kill him.
In fact, it seemed like just what he did until now was enough to obtain their attention and make them try to kill him.
But, since he wasn"t the one to be blamed entirely for what happened and the residents of the Ancient Rock Domain were those who attacked him first, Jian Shen wouldn"t be bothered by any of the justice-seeking and law-abiding forces in the Dao Realm.
"You"re either an expert who doesn"t fear me, or completely oblivious to what I did a week back. Which one is it old man?"
Walking inside the small building which had one door and one window, Jian Shen sat near the table opposite to the old man who was engrossed in enjoying his tea.
Not replying to Jian Shen immediately, the old man with almost no hair on his head and eyebrow which couldn"t be any more white opened his eyes after the tea inside his cup had been entirely drunk by him.
"How fascinating, I can"t imagine what circ.u.mstances caused you to be sent to the lower Realm without even letting you experience life in the Dao Realm."
Seemingly speaking to himself, the old man who seemed to have grown weary due to how long he lived brought out another cup and placed it in front of Jian Shen.
Pouring a pink tea from the pot into both of their cups, the old man motioned for Jian Shen to take a sip while he did the same.
"Aahhhh... Such a refined flavour."
Nodding his head without any expression since the subtle taste the tea had in it wasn"t something he enjoyed or even noticed for that matter, Jian Shen began observing the old man whose cultivation was without any doubt the weakest he sensed since ascending.
"Why are you so confident that I didn"t live in the Dao Realm, old man?"
Showing a slight smile on his face, the old man spoke in his hoa.r.s.e voice, "Everyone that lives in the Dao Realm knows that killing the Spatial Portal Gatekeeper is a taboo."
"Gatekeeper?"
"A figurative word for the invisible gate which restricts people from entering and leaving a domain without permission."
"And why is it a taboo?"
"Because without the existence of people like us, if you kill us and leave, someone very strong will need to travel through s.p.a.ce and arrive here to open the gate if people ever want to come back here."
Showing an expression of understanding, Jian Shen stayed silent for a while before finally asking, "Where do you think I should go now, old man? Is there any Domain that is interesting right now?"

"Interesting? As long as you know where to look, every Domain inside the Dao Realm is interesting in one way or the other."
Speaking words in a profound manner, the old man added, "But for the likes of you who has not yet started travelling on the path of Dao, there is one place which I recommend you visit as soon as possible."
"Oh? Which domain is that?"
"The Bamboo Resort Domain."
Blinking his eyes in surprise because by the name it sounded as if the domain the old man was recommending belonged to one of those tourism resorts where people went to relax.
"I know what you are thinking, that Small Domain is indeed a place where people go to relax and enjoy themselves. But that isn"t why I"m asking you to go there."
"Then why else? Is there something in the Bamboo Resort Domain that someone like me would benefit from?"
"Exactly!"
Stopping here for no reason, the old man refined both of their cups and made Jian Shen chuckle a little from how the man opposite to him was trying to build up suspense for no proper reason.
"The tea is very tasty, isn"t it?"
Rolling his eyes, Jian Shen understanding the man"s intention took a few resources he just plundered and placed them on the table.
"Take these and tell me what I need to know. If the information you provide turns out to be fake though, I don"t need to explain what will happen, do I?"
Shaking his head with an excited look, the old man no longer looked like a mysterious hermit and rather a greedy merchant causing Jian Shen to chuckle once again.
