Chapter Thirty-Nine: Tales from the Borderlands
ancient water tribes"Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!"You could say that," Chongxuan nodded in agreement. "But perhaps it also incorporates some of the original race...The struggle between humans and demons has lasted for eons, the line between life and death a mere reflection of time's endless march.
For a thousand years, the two nations of Jing and Mu have been resisting demons, establishing an effective demon-hunting system. There are different tactics for solo hunters, small teams, and large armies. The weapons, potions, runes, and formations used against demons are also diverse. In the Beast Face Opera of Mu country, there are many adventure stories starring demon hunters.
Those bits and pieces of witcher gear, Jiang Wang didn't rely solely on his sword.
Yuwen Du's map was very complete, indicating where yin demons were more prevalent and where safe habitats could be found... From the death line northward for a thousand miles, it was generally marked clearly. After a thousand miles, demonic beasts surged, and there was no fixed territory at all. The demon clan themselves didn't know.
Jiang Wang didn't follow the blueprint, he only drew a straight line, walking his own path, heading forward on his own.
For his five-day monster hunting trip, he allowed himself half a day to return, leaving four and a half days to test how far he could venture into the desert on his own.
As is well known, the danger level in the borderlands increases exponentially with each mile ventured into. After three thousand miles, every hundred miles presents a new obstacle. The kingdoms of Jing and Mu consider this distance a "dead zone" and strongly advise against anyone traveling there alone.
For many years, while hunting demons on the frontier, the armies of the two countries mostly scoured within three thousand miles.

Therefore, back then when Zhongshan Yanwen performed the "Teleportation to Slay Demons" and ventured into the desolate regions eight thousand miles away, defeating border demons and returning safely, his name reverberated throughout the world. He set a record for the furthest distance traveled by a single person in history, which is documented and undeniable. This epic tale of heroism deserves to be passed down through generations.
On the third day into the boundless desert, Jiang Wang still hadn't waited for the rain here.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But what he received was the Yin Demon's largest-scale raid.
He marched forward, slaying all in his path, but the Yin Demons gathered more and more, some floating in the sky, others slithering in the ground, with fins like fish, horns like oxen, bird bodies and demonic faces...
Indeed, there are evil spirits polluting the world.

The black camel stopped for the first time, because there was no way forward.

The greatest danger in the desolate borderlands has declared its terror to outsiders more than once.
In the boundless desert where perception and senses are pushed to their limits, being surrounded by monsters is perfectly normal.
That's why the wilds don't recommend lone wolves for the strong, but rather well-defined hunting parties. There are scouts, trap setters, attackers, defenders... everything is needed to venture deep into the unknown.
>
Even resorting to moving large armies and deploying scouts to gather intelligence. In this region, human intelligence gathering could only rely on primitive methods.
A lone traveler finds themselves in perilous circumstances here.
But precisely because of this, many strong individuals regard it as a challenge. Generations of the strong, time and again, are breaking records on the fringes of solitude. The individual who creates the record enjoys the glory alone.
Unconsciously, he was once again shrouded in dumplings. Jiang Wang wasn't too surprised. He pinched the formation seal while keeping an eye on his surroundings.
One of the iron rules in the desolate borderlands is: "When thousands of demonic spirits gather, a powerful demon will inevitably appear."
The Yin Demons only have instincts, while the Jiang Mo possesses simple intelligence and absolute authority over the Yin Demons. They can command Yin Demons into battle.
Of course, because wisdom is not complete, this "command" is probably limited to the level of "charging together" and "dispersing together."
The fluctuation in Mo's power is very large. The weakest won't be much weaker than Yin Demon, and the strongest can even rival cultivators at the Divine Presence stage.
In the hierarchy of demons, above the Yin Demons are the Generals, and above the Generals are the True Demons. No mortal in this world can match them.
Above the true demons are the celestial demons. When celestial demons appear, only Dao Zhenjun can subdue them.
The demons that emerged here, a mere cursory glance revealed there were absolutely more than three thousand. Conversely, this implies that the strength of the hidden demons within is also undeniably formidable.
The grayish sky, was filled with dark clouds.
Of course, it wasn't the rain of a barren land, but Jiang Wang's skill.
Amidst the turbulent times, the tide of Taoist practice surged!
Kǎng Jīn Lóng, jiǎo mù jiāo, jī shuǐ bào, wěi huǒ hǔ, shì tǔ hé, fáng rì tù, xīn yuè hú!
The spirit of the Seven Constellations, conjured through Taoist arts, was vividly alive, radiating an air of majesty. In a flash, it unfolded across this world, revealing divine brilliance and treasures. In this dim world, it painted a vivid scene. At its outermost edge, it formed a ring, encircling these thousands of demons in reverse. 2
These seven mansions are composed of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, sun and moon.
Jiang Wang only clenched his fist!
>
The dazzling golden dragon, the vigorous wood python, the water-controlling leopard, the fire-riding tiger, the earth-shaking badger, the soaring sun rabbit, and the heart-illuminating moon fox... In an instant, they surged with intertwined brilliance, stirring up a chaotic current of元氣.

The strong light was a golden-green black red yellow five-color, like a giant cloud of light exploding, piercing through the gray sky.
The Five Elements are reversed, the sun and moon shift their positions.

Azure Dragon's Seven Transformations, Seven Constellations Annihilation!
This newly developed super-grade Taoism technique from the Qi Guo Academy has almost reached the ultimate limit of what a super-grade yellow rank Taoism can achieve. It was first fully demonstrated in Bianhuang!
After the strong light subsided and the energy dissipated, only a dense carpet of ghostly demon skulls remained on the ground!
>
The black camel shifted its hooves, avoiding a skull that rolled past.
For a brief moment, silence hung heavy in the air between heaven and earth. All that could be heard was the wind rustling through the sand.
The bones are rolling.
A pile of demon skulls were smashed open, and one shakily stood up. Aside from its bizarre physique not unlike other Yin Demons, a black armor condensed from demonic energy gradually appeared
And then it was set ablaze.
In the raging flames, it was being burned without a sound.
And dozens of feet away in the sand, a tall demon with the body of a bear and the head of a dog suddenly burst forth. It ran wildly, scrambling over the ground in all directions towards the distance!
It was clearly more intelligent than the average ghoul, at least it knew to crawl in the sand for a while and create some distance before making its escape.
But this kind of intelligence is also very limited.
With just a flick of his wrist, Jiang Wang summoned a pitch-black chain from the void. It wrapped tightly around its bear-like waist.

The Shackles of Confinement no longer matched the current battle level, one end bound to the demon general, the other held in Jiang Wang's hand. With a light tap of his boot, the black camel swayed its bells and ran forward.
Jiang Wang used the shackles on his prisoner, both to test the effectiveness of the Legalist secret art against demons, gaining more knowledge, and also to lead this fool towards areas with a denser concentration of monsters.
A pile of demon skulls were stored in the storage pouch.
Here, the distance to that line of life and death is only eighteen hundred miles.

Boom boom boom boom boom!
The bear charged, its body rumbling like thunder.
A mere fiend equivalent to an outer courtyard cultivator's strength, naturally couldn't escape Jiang Wang's suppression.
It was so stupid that it didn't even pay much attention to the shackles around its waist. It struggled for a moment but couldn't break free, so it just let them hang there. Instead, it strode forward and ran deep into the desert.
The black camel's legs were powerful, and it easily kept up with the towering, speed-limited magic general.
The bell's tremor, it vibrates deeper into the desolate expanse.

A black body chain, growing longer as it is pulled, is a moving vertical line on the desolate and obscure wasteland.

In the beginning, Yue Leng was said to be imprisoned in chains. Over the past few months, he had been quietly released without any concrete conclusion, effectively being cleared of any wrongdoing. However, they have been deliberately avoiding each other. Although they are both in Linzi, they haven't met again.
Lin Youxie has now gone to the San Xing Gong, wanting to learn the true version of the Shackles of Confinement. I wonder what kind of power it possesses.
This is an example of a paragraph.
The Divine Seal Technique still cannot establish a connection with the Blood Puppet True Demon, and I don't know her current situation. I also can't sense Dugu Xiao. This place is only a life-and-death line away from the grassland, but it feels like she's in another world. 4
Jiang Wang silently looked at the black chains ahead, some inexplicable thoughts spreading.
In this remote and desolate place, where few dare to tread, one inevitably feels a sense of bewilderment and solitude.
But memory is a solitary companion.
Ding dong, ding dong The camel bell has been swinging here for millions of years.

Jiang Wang withdrew his thoughts. At the very least, he had to kill a few demon generals of the Divine Incarnation level for this trip to be worthwhile.

At this moment, he held the chain in his right hand like a reins, dangling it far away from the demon queen. His left hand was spread out flat with his fingers pointing towards the sky. The fingertips were swirling orbs of five colors.
His recent Dao arts cultivation direction is to shorten the time it takes for a full-fledged burst at the peak of the Azure Dragon's Seven Transformations. There is no other way, he can only endure hardship and persevere.
The sky seems darker.
But this obscurity, it seems, has never changed.
It is said that in Bianhuang, many people will have a doubt - is this really the real world
"Roar!"
A violent surge of energy, suddenly erupted.
A chaotic breath surged like a tide, as if a god had descended upon the world!
As the voice fell, a tall figure bathed in blood ripped through space and appeared before Jiang Wang!
In this boundless desert, humans are oppressed in every way. However, demons move freely here.
Therefore, this demon of the divine realm level was discovered first by Jiang Wang, who rushed over immediately. Jiang Wang had to wait for it to get closer before he could sense it.
This is a towering minotaur clad in bloody armor. Its lower half is that of a bull with four hooves, while its upper half is human with two arms and a bull's head. In its large hand, it clutches a warhammer made of iron-wrought wolf fangs, the surface etched with numerous battle scars.
It leaped, its hooves kicking up ripples in the air. Its towering form, over three meters tall, was like a small hill, and it charged down with a thunderous crash!
Jiang Wang took a step and sent the black camel far away, then drew his sword to block.
Swords and maces clashed.
A tremendous force crushed down, slamming him directly into the sand!
With the mace fell, endless and murky earth elemental power descended. It was like an invisible slab of stone, crushing all dust to ruin.
The sand had been pressed into a smooth sheet.
It's like laying a solid foundation, ready to build a house at any time.
The Ox-Demon raised his wolf-tooth club, ready to strike again.
Therefore, this devil from the divine realm was first discovered by Jiang Wang, who rushed over immediately. Jiang Wang, however, had to wait for it to get closer before he could sense it.
This is a towering bull demon clad in blood-red armor. Its lower half is that of a bull with four hooves, while its upper half is humanoid with two arms. Its head is that of a bovine skull. In its large hand, it grips a battle-worn iron wolf tooth club.
It leaped into the air, its hooves striking the air and sending ripples through it. Its towering form, over ten feet tall, resembled a small mountain. And then, with a crushing blow from its head!
Jiang Wang took a step, sending the black camel away with his foot, then drew his sword and swung it horizontally.
Sword against mace.

With the mace falling, came endless, murky earth essence. It was like an invisible slab of stone, crushing all dust.
The sand had been pressed into a flat surface.
It's like laying the foundation for a house, ready to be built anytime.
The Ox-demon raised his wolf fang club, ready to strike again——
Although the Ox Demon only has simple intelligence, it can fully feel the opponent's power.
No matter how it struggled, it was unable to inflict any harm on its opponent, nor could it prevent the increasing number of bloodstains on its body. This sense of powerlessness intensified its primal fear.
Then, after a roar of rage, the blood armor on his body suddenly exploded!
The blood essence burst into a bloody demonic aura. This aura churned like a furious sea, swallowing the sky and earth. Within it, there was an evil life force surging... as if something terrifying was about to break free.
But a brilliant city of fire has descended from the heavens!
The sun blazed brightly, shining with brilliant splendor.
I subdued this three-zhang tall bull demon, along with its bloody demonic aura, before incinerating it in a raging inferno.
Back then, Zuo Guanglie, at the age of fifteen, won first place in the Huanghe Conference's inner court examination.
At the age of seventeen, he entered the borderlands and, using the art of wildfire, incinerated thousands of evil spirits.
Now, his fireworks are burning the city, once again blooming in this dead place.
And the one who released this superior Taoist art was Jiang Wang! He buried Zuo Guanglie at the age of seventeen and became the leader of the Yellow River at nineteen.
Time flies, but the fireworks never fade.
The demons do not engage in production, their weapons are mostly plundered from the corpses of human cultivators. This bull demon's weapon is also unknown to be left behind by which human cultivator. It faintly reveals a murderous aura, showing its ferocity.
Jiang Wang extinguished the Flame City with one hand, and casually put away this iron wolf tooth club. Afterward, he drew his sword in a sweeping gesture—
The sword light roared for dozens of meters.
The demon, still bound by chains, had been cut in two. Its severed body flew high into the air, scattering into demonic energy before it even hit the ground.
Ginger Wang didn't say a word, and had already climbed onto the back of the black camel. With a light tug on the reins, she urged it to leave the place.
Why didn't he continue to let this bear creature lead the way with magic
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Why didn't he continue to experiment with other information about this Minotaur, but instead quickly resolved the battle by burning the city with fireworks Because in the Minotaur's desperate outburst of blood-colored demonic energy just now, he sensed a power that made him uneasy - ever since Min Xi Corridor Sword Slash Yi Shengfeng and absorbed his human star tower, his spiritual awareness seemed to have become sharper.
Maybe it has nothing to do with Yishengfeng's death, just a leap in the level of life after entering the divine realm.
But no matter what, Jiang Wang felt the danger and left.
This unsettling power felt familiar, akin to the ancient Blood Demon power he had sensed in Duanhun Gorge—but wasn't that Blood Demon subdued by Yu Beidou
It was still the third day of entering the wilderness, and the bear monster had not yet run two hundred miles from Demon City.
That is to say, after crossing the threshold of life and death, Jiang Wang hadn't even ventured two thousand li before he felt the danger to his life.
This is the edge of desolation.
No matter how powerful you are, there will be corresponding dangers waiting for you.
He was not curious, did not explore, and promptly severed contact, extinguishing any potential danger...but he continued forward.

One must always try to see how far they can go, and feel what those who have guarded the line of life and death for so many years have faced, and sacrificed. 2
The list of casualties from the fight against the demonic tide, is a very long one that both the Jing and Mu militaries release every year.
But the numbers on paper are ultimately too superficial.
Life is too rich to be carried by just one person.
One who has not personally experienced history cannot possibly understand its weight.
Journey deep into the unknown, wielding my sword alone.
On the fourth day of venturing deep into the wilderness, two Godly-Rank Demonic Generals had already been slain, and countless Shadow Demons eradicated... Having traveled 2,600 li into the desolate expanse, we are on the verge of reaching the Forbidden Zone of Life.

There was thick fog that day.
Jiang Wang sat on the black camel's back, seeing a shaky figure walking out from the thick fog.
Jiang Wang pressed his sword, watching as the figure gradually became clearer.
That was a middle-aged man with a gentle temperament, wearing a fur coat and dressed as a five-horse guest of the grassland. After walking out of the thick fog, he became very concrete.
“Uncle Deng!” Jiang Wang was taken aback.r rushed in to report."Can it be repaired" Jiang Wang asked calmly.The soldiers shook their heads: "Such a crucial battle formation can only be handled by someone from Jue Ming Island. The formation m...
