I Have A City In An Alternate World

Chapter 3608: A wise retreat (1)
Due to Tang Zhen’s unexpected appearance, it had caused a change that had not occurred in a long time in this mysterious space.

The cultivators behind the steps felt a sense of danger at the same time, afraid that they would also become the target of death.

After all, in a short period of time, two cultivators who blocked Tang Zhen’s path were killed by him in a flash.

There was no unnecessary communication at all. When both sides were on the same step, the battle of life and death would begin.

However, the cultivators also knew that the two battles had their own reasons. The two cultivators only had themselves to blame.

He thought that he could suppress Tang Zhen, but he was killed in one move instead.

Tang Zhen’s strength had exceeded the expectations of many cultivators, and a sense of danger arose.

If the same thing happened twice, even the dullest and most conceited cultivator would realize that Tang Zhen was not simple.

If one did not have absolute strength, one could forget about suppressing and killing Tang Zhen. One might even lose one’s life.

The long-robed old man who had been hesitating before finally made a decision at this moment as he watched Tang Zhen take another step forward and easily cross the next step.

“Your Excellency, are you willing to negotiate?”

The long-robed old man taking the initiative to contact Tang Zhen was a form of compromise. It was a display of goodwill.

“What can I do for you?”

If a cultivator took the initiative to contact him, Tang Zhen definitely wouldn’t ignore it. If he did that, he would just be making things difficult for him.

After all, up until now, he had yet to have any formal communication with the cultivators of the mysterious space.

He also didn’t know much about this mysterious space.

The cultivator who was killed at the beginning did have some communication with him. However, he harbored evil intentions towards Tang Zhen. Hence, the communication between the two parties was limited.

To Tang Zhen, this was an extremely disadvantageous situation. He needed to understand this realm before he could make a more stable plan.

It was within Tang Zhen’s expectations that cultivators would take the initiative to contact him. As his strength was displayed, the cultivators ahead of him would definitely feel more pressure.

Faced with the overbearing Tang Zhen, they only had two choices. Either they obediently give way, or both parties would fight to the death.

It was almost impossible to resist the impact of the waves of laws on the same level.

After all, no one could guarantee that the cultivators around them wouldn’t take the opportunity to attack.

Even though he had expected it, he did not expect it to happen so quickly.

Looking at the distance between the two sides, it was a dozen steps of stairs. Under normal circumstances, it would take a long time to cross it.

It was obvious that the previous rapid advancement had brought great pressure to the long-robed old man. The scaled cultivator that was killed by Tang Zhen in one move had also made the long-robed old man determined.

The other party’s actions could be considered decisive, and their judgment was very accurate.

Tang Zhen didn’t know how long it would take for other cultivators, but he knew that he would be able to cross the threshold very soon.

At that time, if the other party were to negotiate with Tang Zhen, the effect would definitely be far inferior to now.

In fact, at that moment, Tang Zhen might not even be willing to communicate.

The heart of the long-robed old man rejoiced when he heard Tang Zhen’s reply. However, a complicated emotion also flashed and disappeared.

“I can see that Your Excellency possesses astonishing strength and that you are definitely not an ordinary person. I believe that you entered this starting ground to fight for the opportunity to become a Godking.

However, this opportunity could only be obtained by an omnipotent expert.

Although I don’t want to admit it, your strength is indeed far beyond mine, and you have a higher chance of obtaining an opportunity.

If I were to fight with you, I would be overestimating myself and would be courting death.”

The long-robed old man said slowly. There was a lot of flattery in his words, but there was also no lack of sincerity.

Because he knew very well that what he had said was the truth.

He did not have the confidence to win if he fought with Tang Zhen. It was likely that he would end up being killed in the end.

Since he was self-aware, there was no need to fight with Tang Zhen anymore. Obstinately persisting in the wrong path was equivalent to harming himself.

Previously, he was still in a dilemma, but now that he had taken the initiative to speak, he was completely relieved.

Since he didn’t have enough strength, he should obediently make way. He shouldn’t bring disaster to himself for that slim opportunity.

As for the rest of the journey, whether Tang Zhen was able to pass through it or not, it had nothing to do with him.

If the opportunity did not belong to him, it did not matter who obtained it. If it could be obtained by Tang Zhen, it could be considered a good opportunity.

When the long-robed old man said this, his face was full of relief and sincerity.

“I’m willing to make way for you, Sir, and I wish that you can overcome all obstacles and snatch the opportunities in the starting ground!”

The old man bowed to Tang Zhen a dozen steps away and used this to express his attitude.

Tang Zhen cupped his hands together and bowed as a response.

If not for this exchange, when the two sides met, it would definitely be a life and death battle.

Although Tang Zhen was extremely confident of obtaining victory with his strength, it would naturally be best if he could avoid a fight.

After all, a horse would stumble, and it was even more so in a life-and-death battle. It was filled with too much uncertainty.

The long-robed old man in front of him was able to let go of his obsession and choose to give in. He was definitely worthy of Tang Zhen’s return gift.

Because of his retreat, Tang Zhen was able to avoid a fight. At the same time, he was able to avoid a variable.

Being in a place with chaotic rules, one had to be extremely careful, especially to prevent one’s prosperity from declining, and then be deliberately targeted by the mysterious space.

The old will turn young, the great will turn into misfortune, turning the original victory into a crisis. That was a real crisis.

If he were to be kicked out of this mysterious starting ground due to some kind of accident, Tang Zhen would really be depressed and vomit blood.

Words alone were far from enough, and he had to sign a contract as proof.

Under Tang Zhen’s gaze, the long-robed old man released a wisp of his spiritual energy and signed the contract.

It indicated that when both parties were of the same rank, unless they were attacked by Tang Zhen, they would definitely not take the initiative to attack.

After the oath was made, it was immediately pinched by the surrounding turbulent rule power, and then entangled and fused with each other.

From this moment on, the rule force would be in charge of supervising the contract, and there would be no perfunctory actions.

If one were to make a contract in such a dangerous place, the karma would be a hundred times fiercer than in other places. If the long-robed old man were to break his oath, he would probably be torn to pieces by the rule force in an instant.

Although the long-robed old man was willing to give way, he was merely expressing his attitude. If Tang Zhen was not of the same rank as him, this contract would never be effective.

Tang Zhen also signed a contract and expressed that he would not take the initiative to attack.

Just like the long-robed old man, Tang Zhen’s divine soul strength was also absorbed by the rules. This meant that he was also being monitored from this moment on.

However, in the blink of an eye, something unexpected happened.

The trace of soul that was absorbed by the rule power was secretly released for some unknown reason.

This meant that although Tang Zhen had signed a contract, he would not be bound by it. He would not be punished for violating the contract.

Dunn was shocked and uncertain, but he remained silent on the surface.

There must be a special reason for such an abnormal situation to occur. It was either related to Tang Zhen or it was influenced by the kun Wen ancient beast.

The process of his divine soul returning was silent, and outsiders were unable to see through it. They only knew that Tang Zhen had indeed signed the contract.

Seeing this, the long-robed old man heaved a sigh of relief, and the pressure on him disappeared.

Although he had already let go of his obsession, he still did not wish for the contract to be executed. That would mean that Tang Zhen would be unable to get close to him.

Who knew that just as this thought rose up, he saw Tang Zhen suddenly take a step forward and close the distance between the two.

The long-robed old man sighed to himself. He knew that he was still unwilling to give up. Otherwise, he would not have such thoughts.

Tang Zhen’s previous performance was already sufficient to prove his strength. How could he be unable to cross the ladder between the two of them?

Just as the old man laughed at himself and prepared to continue breaking the rule obstacles, he saw Tang Zhen behind him move as fast as lightning and actually took three steps up the stairs.

The long-robed old man was dumbfounded. He even thought that there was something wrong with his perception.

The long robed old man could not help but sigh softly as he looked at Tang Zhen, who was in close proximity with a calm and composed expression.

The unwillingness in his heart instantly disappeared, and he even felt that his choice was extremely wise.
