Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World

Chapter 257: Chapter 160: Enter Yunlai City to Avoid Disaster, the Center of Calamity

Just a few words, and Jiang Fan immediately understood what had happened.

Daoist Fei Lian led a large group to attack Yunlai City, attempting to seize this historic Golden Core Immortal City.

After all, a city without a Golden Core Zhenren guarding it is like a prized delicacy in the eyes of other Golden Core Zhenren.

If obtained, the benefits are truly immense.

It’s basically a never-ending Spirit Stone Ore Vein.

Even the Lingxi Secret Realm cannot compare to Yunlai City.

For Golden Core Zhenren, Yunlai City is the better choice.

Unfortunately, Daoist Fei Lian underestimated the foundation of Yunlai City and the Deputy City Lord, Miao Heyan.

As a result, he suffered a counterattack from Miao Heyan.

In the end, the dignified Golden Core Zhenren was heavily wounded and had to flee in disgrace.

”However, even if Yunlai City won, it was actually a pyrrhic victory.”

”After all, foundations are something that get consumed.”

”Once exhausted, it’s over.”

”So the situation in Yunlai City is very grim now.”

”If Daoist Yunlai doesn’t return soon, Yunlai City will eventually fall.”

”Because it’s not only Daoist Fei Lian eyeing Yunlai City.”

The elderly Loose Cultivator said morosely.

He believed that Yunlai City’s ordeal was just beginning.

Without a Golden Core Zhenren to guard it, the leadership of Yunlai City would eventually change hands.

Simple Foundation Establishment Cultivators cannot possibly hold onto such a vast Golden Core Immortal City.

”Has Daoist Yunlai not returned from the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion yet?”

Jiang Fan curiously asked.

”Of course not. That is a Nascent Soul Cave Mansion.”

”Trapped in a Tier Four Array, it’s fortunate to survive.”

”Daoist Yunlai’s life is still uncertain.”

”Even the Golden Core Zhenren trapped in the mansion have not returned yet.”

”Overall, the emergence of this Nascent Soul Cave Mansion has severely harmed many Golden Core influences.”

The elderly Loose Cultivator said helplessly.

Clearly, if these Golden Core Zhenren were to fall, the power dynamics throughout the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range would completely change.

At that time, who knows what kind of turmoil will arise.

For Loose Cultivators who just want to cultivate peacefully, this is not a good thing.

But this is not something these Loose Cultivators can stop.

Without strength, they can only go with the flow.

”Hmm.”

After gathering the information, Jiang Fan and Su Weiwei left.

”Husband, Yunlai City is probably not safe anymore now.”

”Should we leave here?”

Su Weiwei said worriedly.

She felt Yunlai City had already become a battlefield for Golden Core Zhenren.

At any moment, it could be impacted by the power of a Golden Core Zhenren, becoming the center of a battlefield.

Even though her husband had become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he was still too weak against the power of a Golden Core Zhenren.

The best choice would actually be to leave here quickly and avoid this storm.

Boom~~

Just as Jiang Fan was about to say something, suddenly, deep within his Elixir Field and Sea of Qi, the Fortune-Telling Talisman trembled, flashing with golden light. A message instantly entered the depths of his Sea of Consciousness.

”A whirlpool of calamity, fortune and misfortune are determined by man.”

”Leaving Yunlai City, great misfortune.”

”Joining the forces of Yunlai City, small misfortune.”

”Hide your cultivation and retreat into Yunlai City for quiet cultivation, small fortune.”

Instantly, Jiang Fan sensed the message brought by the Fortune-Telling Talisman: being in the whirlpool of calamity, each choice he made would bring different outcomes, whether disaster or opportunity.

If he made the wrong choice, he could end up unlucky.

”What does it mean? Leaving Yunlai City is a sign of great misfortune?”

”Why is this?”

”Is there some calamity around Yunlai City?”

Jiang Fan was a bit surprised.

In fact, after hearing that Yunlai City was being targeted by Golden Core Zhenren, he had the thought of retreating and running away.

However, the Fortune-Telling Talisman was telling him that leaving would be very dangerous and might lead to death.

Undoubtedly, there must be some unknown danger around Yunlai City.

Once he leaves, he might be targeted by enemies.

Even as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he might not survive.

”Can’t leave, and can’t join the forces of Yunlai City.”

”Indeed, that’s true; the forces with Daoist Yunlai are currently in turmoil.”

”Joining now might not even earn their trust.”

”Even if we gain their trust, we might become their cannon fodder.”

”It’s a totally unrewarded risk.”

Jiang Fan somewhat understood why he shouldn’t do it.

After all, Daoist Yunlai was deeply trapped in the Nascent Soul Cave Mansion, alive or dead, while being eyed by other Golden Core Zhenren.

If he were to reveal his Foundation Establishment cultivation now, join Yunlai City, and become an Honored Guest Elder, he’d likely become a target.

This held no benefit for him either.

Because there wasn’t much within Yunlai City that he desperately needed.

So after careful thought, the best course was to hide his cultivation, and disguise himself as a common Loose Cultivator.

This way, no other forces would target him.

After passing this great calamity, he could make further plans.

Moreover, he currently possessed ample cultivation resources.

More than enough for him to cultivate to the Second-Layer Foundation Establishment or even the Third Layer.

Therefore, he didn’t need to rush.

With this in mind, Jiang Fan said to Su Weiwei, ”For now, we cannot leave Yunlai City, and even if we did, where would we go? We are safer staying here.

But the slum area certainly isn’t suitable to continue living in. Let’s move into Yunlai City, rent a house. Staying inside the city is not only safer, but the cultivation environment is better as well.”
