ment of desperation, he didn't even have time to think. He reached out and touched his own brow.Several golden bolts of lightning shot out, but instead of transforming into phantoms, they intertwined...Although Ginger Cloud was sitting there with her eyes closed, seeming to be in deep meditation, none of the surrounding cultivators dared to turn and leave. They all stood there motionless, their hearts pounding as they waited anxiously.

Finally, after a moment, a beautiful young woman appeared before Jiang Yun!

And at the moment when the woman appeared, Jiang Yun also opened his eyes and stood up. He nodded faintly at the woman and said: "Friend Daoist, we meet again!"

This woman is the person in charge of welcoming and guiding newcomers to the Death Zone when Jiang Yun first arrived.

At that time, the woman saw that Jiang Yun was going to the deepest part of the death zone, and she thought for sure that Jiang Yun would have no return, and would surely die.

Especially later, she learned that not only had Jiang Yún entered the depths of the death zone, but he had entered the black clouds themselves. This made her even more certain that her guess was right.

But she never expected that she would receive news of Jiang Yun's safe return, so she hurried over as quickly as possible.

At this moment, seeing Jiang Yun standing before her with her own eyes, the woman's face was filled with surprise. She still couldn't quite believe it and asked, "Is it really you"

Ginger nodded and said, "It's really me!"

"I can't believe you're actually alive and back!"

As she spoke, the woman's gaze also fell upon the unconscious Yue Ruhuo cradled in Jiang Yun's arms.

This also made her instantly understand that Jiang Yun entered the black cloud, it must be to save this woman.

At this time, Ginger Cloud also followed closely with a direct voice transmission, “Fellow Daoist, I want to go to the other side of the extra-domain battlefield, which is closer to the area where the Annihilation Domain is located. Therefore, I hope your sect can help!”

Jiang Yun's words caused the woman to raise an eyebrow and say, "Daoist friend, you really flatter us, members of the Gate of Life and Death. We are unable to fulfill your request."

"The battlefield outside the domain, closer to the side where annihilation dwells, is considered the territory of the Void's Edge and Nowhere's End. We rarely venture there, and we are incapable of establishing teleportation arrays within its confines!"

Jiang Yunning calmly said, "Of course I'm not asking your honorable sect to send me there."

"On the edge of the death zone, there is a teleportation array that can directly lead to that half. I just hope your esteemed sect will tell me the location of that teleportation array!"

The woman's face changed instantly, her expression filled with surprise as she said, "How did you know about that teleportation array"

This, of course, was what the old man who loved to drink had told him when Jiang Yun first entered the battlefield outside the domain.

However, Jiang Yun didn't say it out loud. He only continued to ask: "I wonder if your sect can help with my request"

The woman did not answer right away, but instead turned her gaze once more to Yue Ruhuo.

This time, she also noticed the faint mark between Yue Ruhuo's brows, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "You are going to the battlefield's half-region, could it be that you want to enter Mieyu to save her"

Ginger acknowledged, "That's right!"

After a moment's pause, the woman shook her head and said, "This matter is too important and exceeds my authority. I cannot make a decision on my own. I need to consult with the elders of our sect. Please wait a moment."

Ginger nodded and said, "Thank you!"

The woman also took out a communication jade slip, crushed it, and after only a short wait, looked back at Jiang Yun: "The elder agreed, but there is one condition."

Ginger Cloud said without any surprise, "Go ahead!"

“The elders are very interested in you. They originally hoped that you could meet them now, but they also know that you are short on time. Therefore, if you can return safely from the Desolate Domain, then they hope that you can return from the Outer Realm battlefield and meet them!”

If Jiang Yun had followed his original plan, he would have definitely requested the Moon Venerable to help him return to the Dao Domain after successfully sending Yue Ruhuo back to the Yue Ling Clan. He would have asked the Moon Venerable to use the same channel that the Moon Venerable and Yue Sheng used to enter the Dao Domain to send him directly back.

But now, in this foreign battlefield, Jiang Yun has yet to find the whereabouts of Lu Xiaoyu's ancestors and descendants. And the little beast remained in the black clouds, which made Jiang Yun change his mind.

Therefore, the condition proposed by the Gate of Life and Death now will not affect Jiang Yun.

Even Ginger Cloud knew that the Elder of Death Gate wanted to see him for one purpose: to recruit him into Death Gate.

Moreover, even if returning from an overseas battlefield to the domain, with the help of the Gate of Life and Death, one wouldn't need to traverse the nine realms like they did when they came.

At that time, he could completely use their teleportation array to return to the Dao Domain, and it wouldn't take much time. Therefore, he nodded without hesitation and said: "Okay!"

"Okay, then follow me!"

Thus, led by this woman, the two walked toward the edge of the death zone.

As the woman walked, she explained to Jiang Yun the situation of half the battlefield.

"Although we know about that teleportation array and even sent people through it to that half of the battlefield, almost all of them were one-way trips. So we don't know exactly where that teleportation array will send you on that half of the battlefield."

"Moreover, the situation on that half of the battlefield was more complicated than ours in the Dao domain. It wasn't divided into nine layers like here, especially with powerful demons and those from the Unreturning Heaven roaming about."

"Besides, they hold a strong hostility towards our sect's cultivators. If you encounter them, be careful!"

Jiang Yun, from Yue Sheng's mouth, had also heard about the situation on the battlefield outside the domain. He knew that Mieyu only had strong experts stationed at the connection between the outer battlefield and Mieyu to prevent monsters from entering Mieyu. However, there were no troops stationed inside the battlefield itself.

Therefore, that area has been in a completely uncontrolled state for countless years. It goes without saying that it must have been extremely chaotic.

However, Ginger Cloud's strength is now vastly different from before. According to what his master, Gu Bulao, said back then, the world is vast, and he can go anywhere!

Thank you for the reminder, I will be careful!

Next, the woman remained silent, quickly moving forward in the darkness. Of course, Jiang Yun had nothing to say either. His mind was filled with what the monster hunter had told him about the Desolate Domain and the Annihilation Clan.

Originally, in the Obliteration Domain, clans also had levels of hierarchy.

The 滅 Clan is the top-tier royal clan, and the nine clans that Jiang Yun knows are naturally the slave clans of the 滅 Clan.

However, after arriving at the Dao Domain, these nine clans were no longer called slave clans, but were linked together with Annihilation, becoming the Annihilation Nine Clans.

As for the reason, although Ginger Cloud didn't want to believe it, considering what Huanxu had told him before, and what he saw in his dream, the most likely possibility was——

Nine clans rebel against their lord!

The nine clans, originally the nine slave clans, finally made their move and killed their masters after following them in establishing the Dao Domain.

This allowed them to break free from their slave status and become the Annihilating Nine Clans, becoming the most powerful force in that brand new world of the Dao Domain.

While someone born with the Annihilation Demon Body, though seen by monster hunters as a descendant of the Annihilation Clan, could actually be a descendant of the Demon Clan.

However, upon thinking about this, a sudden light sparked in Jiang Yun's eyes as he said, "That's not right. The term 'Demon Hunter' for my body isn't 'Annihilation Demon Body,' but 'Annihilation Body'!"

Although they differ by only one character, the meanings they contain can be worlds apart.

"Was that just a slip of the tongue from the monster hunters, or is the real name of the Annihilation Demon Body actually the Annihilation Body"

Just then, a woman's voice rang out: "Daoist Jiang, we have arrived!"
