The Geared Immortal

Chapter 992

(Unedited)

…

The travel to the Outer World is a bit uneventful as the group just enjoyed the scenery of the forest below them. The beasts that dare to attack them are turned into their meals, and the escort became so bored that they slept all the way to the barrier to the Outer World.

At this moment, Shin Jiao is currently inside his cabin looking at a formation plate that he just crafted. After a long while of checking and analyzing he stopped and smile in satisfaction.

"I still need to make at least seven of these things…" Shin Jiao muttered as he takes out another set of materials from his dimension.

After taking out the materials, Shin Jiao noticed something.

"Hmm… The laws of time and space have truly entered the small world in my dimension…" he thought as he noticed the materials seemed to have aged a little.

He immediately emerged his consciousness in the small world and then quickly formed an array. Since knowing the soul trapping array, Shin Jiao has a slight grasp of time law. Though it is not complete, he still has an idea on how to control it especially when he is the overlord of the small world.

And with that move, he is able to create a formation that would render the laws of time and space in a particular area of the small world ineffective.

In that place, the laws of time have no effect whatsoever.

After doing that, he once again emerged himself in creating the formation plate that he would be using when they arrive in Main Arjing city.

Soon the airship arrives in the barrier which separates the Inner Kingdom and the Outer World.

Upon alighting from the airship Shin Jiao noticed that the gate wall seemed to have been busy with a large number of people coming and going.

He also noticed that the Crimson Light elite border guards are not that busy anymore. The gate is now using a large-scale scanning system developed by the mages from the Tower of Light.

Xiamen Gong is currently explaining things beside him as the group walks to the large gate.

Soon they were able to walk out of the gate and what greeted them is a public transportation terminal with many passengers waiting in line.

Shin Jiao was a bit amazed at the development of the area which he did not expect to happen too soon. There are Windfall carriages, small passenger airships, and cars which resembled taxis waiting in the terminal.

The terminal is like a small bustling village with many public and private vehicles parked everywhere going to different routes.

"Shin, our ride is in there…" Xiamen Gong pointed at a three-story building.

The building seems to be accommodating nobles and rich merchants. The people in this place are wearing fine clothing and seem to have a status.

As the group walks inside the waiting lounge, they are greeted politely by a young woman sitting behind the ticketing desk.

"Good afternoon, sir and mam… How may I help you?" she said politely.

Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao felt a bit nostalgic.

Xiamen Gong on the side did not say anything and just gave her a card.

When the woman saw the card, her expression suddenly changes. She knew what the card means, and it made her almost want to stand up and call her manager. However, she immediately got hold of her excitement and quickly processed the tickets.

Shin Jiao has already known that Main Arjing city's air space is being monitored by the city itself. It would be troublesome for them to ride their own airship that is not registered with the city. And so to prevent any further delays, they could just take the public airship.

The ticket given to the group is for VIP passengers.

The young woman immediately showed a fawning smile upon giving the tickets. She then eyes the woman beside her. The woman saw what happened and quickly reacted by guiding the group to a private lounge.

"This is our privilege… Hehe…" Xiamen Gong said with a chuckle.

The others who have stayed in Main Arjing City already knew this and this situation is not new to them. They would even encounter people fawning over them just to get a chance to be with the manager of the Mystique Shop merchant group. However, there are rules that they need to follow to prevent anyone from overstepping their privilege.

Once inside the private lounge for the managers, the group is greeted by another group that seems to belong to another branch of the shop.

A handsome and tall young mage walks towards them and greeted the group.

"Boss Gong! Miss Xiao! Welcome back!" the young man said with a smile while bowing.

The rest of his companions also stood up and bowed.

How could they not know who the new group that just entered was?

As the higher up of the merchant group, they are already aware of who their true bosses are. But none of them knew of Shin Jiao's appearance, hence they did not greet him.

Xiamen Gong felt a bit awkward upon receiving such a greeting while the person responsible for everything is just standing beside him. But knowing Shin Jiao and his attitude, he did not fuss about it.

"Thank you… Alright, you all go back to doing your own things…" Xiamen Gong said while waving his hand.

The private lounge for the Mystique Shop higher-ups became silent with the arrival of the bosses. But what baffled everyone is the young which seem to be leading the group. They did not know who that guy is.

What everyone knows is that the real boss of the company is a middle-aged man. But that young man is not familiar to them. However, from the way everyone listens to him, they are all baffled and perplexed at the situation.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao began explaining to the group his plan.

"Alright, when we arrive in Main Arjing City, we will directly go to the ruins of the Great White Tower of Dugal… How was the preparation I relayed to you in dealing with that place?" Shin Jiao said and then turn to Ansen Wine who is sitting on the side.

"I have already set up the formation to hide the underground room, so you don't have to worry about that." Ansen Wine said with a confident smile.

Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao could not help but nod his head. This guy has been against him ever since they came to this world. However, as time went by, he became cooperative and even became friendly with the group.

He did not know what the future holds, but he could tell that right at this moment, this guy has no evil intention, so far…

Shin Jiao waves his hand and a small invisible array suddenly enveloped the group.

"Guys… I will tell you this… creating a passage out of this place will take time. But if I am successful, then this passage will be our ticket out of this place. However, we have a big problem… The amount of mana consumed will be enormous. Plus, it will surely create trouble in the city. But that is not the main problem. The main problem is the nascent physique needed to fuel the planar passage…" Shin Jiao explained.

"Some of us, at least four will have to sacrifice for this to work. You choose who among you would volunteer. For me, I have to make sure that the array formation will function properly, so even if I wanted to, I could not volunteer…" Shin Jiao said.

When the group heard this, they all showed a hint of dilemma in their eyes.

There is surely a need for a price to pay to be able to escape this place. Every one of them knew that.

Suddenly, Ansen Wine raised his hand.

"Shin… there are others that came from the immortal land that we have helped and saved… Do you think those who have regained their strength would be willing to be the sacrifice?" he suggested.

"Hmm… What are their strength levels?" Shin Jiao asked in contemplation.

"I think a couple of them have reached the level of a lord." Axle Long suddenly said.

"Hmm… If they truly wanted to get out with us, then we have to get their consent." Shin Jiao said with a frown.

"But the question is, will they trust us?" Vilma Song suddenly interjected.

Everyone turned silent upon hearing her words. Those people have suffered through the torture of the mages inside the tower. Some of them even saw their companions dying under the great pressure of taking their physical level just to tear the space for the mages to enter the immortal land.

Although this event was only successful in the Great White tower of Dugal, the others who suffered such torture may not be able to agree.

"Sigh… There is no use mulling over this. We can only ask them…" Xiamen Gong said.

All of the saved people from the immortal land are now residing in Main Arjing city.. So asking them for their own opinion would not be that hard.
