"Since these Five Elements Sect people have rushed over to save him, their strength must also be considerable. Can you really handle them all by yourself?"

"Perhaps we can all help you, we Ancient Remnants are not very strong individually, but when more than thirty villages come together, we can still be of quite some help."

Jiang Yun was very righteous, "My grandfather is right, Respected Envoy Xiao, you have considered the safety of our remnant population, we will not let you face danger alone."

"The individual strength of us remnants may be weak, but together we can form a force that cannot be taken lightly, we can all offer you help."

"Village elder, Brother Jiang, thank you for your kindness, but there's no need. I don't require your help; just take good care of yourselves."

Xiao Mu was somewhat moved, these Ancient Remnants, though not weak, were fearless of death, they had the courage to resist even against powerful enemies capable of wiping out their entire race with a wave of the hand.

Seeing the villagers still trying to persuade, Xiao Mu's expression turned solemn, and he said loudly: "I have had prior encounters with people from the Five Elements Sect, their strength may be formidable, but they are not a match for me. Unless the ancestors of the Five Elements themselves make a move, no one can make me feel apprehensive."

Buzz!

A trembling sound came forth, from Xiao Mu's body suddenly emitted Gold Brilliance, followed closely by a City God's likeness flying out from within him, appearing above his head.

The Golden City-God While Power cascaded down, instantaneously enveloping the entire room.

In the room, every villager was bathed in the City God's power, all of them aglow with golden light.

"City... City God!"

Jiang Yun was astonished; Xiao Mu was not a Land God, but rather a City God.

Old man Jiang Huaigu's eyes widened, "Respected Envoy Xiao is a City God, no, Xiao City God!"

"The Respected Envoy was actually a City God, why conceal your identity in the beginning!"

The villagers were amazed, some once again prostrated before Xiao Mu, greeting the City God.

City Gods govern life and death, and all the villagers here lead long lives. Each one of them is grateful to the City God, and even though there are no City Gods in this world, everyone knows where this authority comes from.

"Please rise, elders!"

Xiao Mu waved his hand, releasing a burst of power to help the prostrated elders to their feet.

His identity as a City God brought many conveniences, causing the villagers to trust Xiao Mu's words even more.

With the City God's likeness above his head, Xiao Mu rearranged his plans: "Brother Jiang, remember my words, after I leave, spread the message that Xiao Mu has entered this world and is heading to the Five Elements Ancestor's Forbidden Area."

"Should you encounter people from the Five Elements Sect, and should they trouble you, repeat what I've just said: 'If you have the guts, come find me, Xiao Mu, and do not bully the weak villagers.'

Brother Jiang agreed, and old village chief Jiang Huaigu once again expressed his thanks to Xiao Mu, with even more sincerity than before when they thought Xiao Mu was a Land God.

A Land God might not necessarily have the power to ensure their safety, but a City God's strength far surpassed that of a Land God, making his promises carry much more weight.

Xiao Mu again bid farewell to the villagers, stepping out of the room, just as he was about to use the Escape Art to leave, he suddenly thought of something, turned back, and asked the elder Jiang Huaigu: "Elder village chief, are there any Ancient Great War Ruins in this world? Especially the kind with Solidified Divine Authority?"

It suddenly occurred to him about his own Authority of Life Technique.

The cultivation of the Authority of Life Technique was too difficult, but if he could find Solidified Authority, it would allow him to enhance the power of his Authority of Life Technique, and further condense the Yama Hammer.

After all, increasing his own strength was the first and foremost priority for Xiao Mu.

Solidified authority was not easy to find, but this place was the battlefield of the Ancient Great War, where Lord of Bai's Mansion fought against the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect, and there was a high possibility of existence of Solidified Authority.

"Does the Respected Envoy need Solidified Authority?"

Elder Jiang Huaigu thought for a moment, suddenly pointing towards the southwest direction, "There is a Kui Mountain that way, legendary to be where the Lord of Bai's Mansion fought against the Five Elements ancestor."

"If the Respected Envoy wishes to find Solidified Authority, it wouldn't hurt to check there. If it doesn't exist in this world, then it will certainly be in that location."

"Moreover, to the south from here, as previously mentioned to the Respected Envoy, there is an ancient mountain range called Cloud Mist Mountain."

"Deep within Cloud Mist Mountain lies a door that no one has ever entered. However, power of Creation often flows out from within it."

"We call it the Door of Creation; if the Respected Envoy wishes, you can also take a look there."

Kui Mountain! The Door of Creation in Cloud Mist Mountain!

Xiao Mu was shaken inwardly.

True to being a land left from Ancient Times, just these two places mentioned by elder Jiang Huaigu, each could be called a Treasure Land.

He decided to explore them, on top of hindering the Five Elements Sect from unleashing the ancestor of the Five Elements, he was determined to investigate these two Treasure Lands.

Xiao Mu said his farewells, continuing to carry the aura of the City-God Power as he left Jiang Village.

The Golden City-God Authority soared into the sky, forming clusters of golden clouds that fiercely spread outward, visible even thousands of miles away.

Worried that the Mutated Beings from the Five Elements Sect might bully the villagers if they couldn't find him, Xiao Mu deliberately unleashed his authority to reveal his location, attracting the Mutated Beings from the Five Elements Sect to come to him.

Jiang Yun remembered Xiao Mu's instructions, and as soon as Xiao Mu left Jiang Village, he began to send messages to other villages. The news quickly spread, and soon, all the Ancient Remnants in the small world had received it.

※※※

Bang!

Two streams of the Light of Five Elements descended from the sky, enveloping two silhouettes whose Brilliance of Five Elements gradually dissipated, revealing two men.

Each of the two emanated a powerful aura, both at the level of Divine Spirits.

Suddenly, a young voice going through the voice change period hollered from a distance, "People of the Five Elements Sect, listen up! Xiao Mu has a message for you through us Ancient Remnants: stop only knowing how to do vile deeds, harming the villagers who have never practiced Cultivation. If you have the guts, go find him."

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

The sound of Escape Art suddenly rang out, and one of the two men from the Five Elements Sect who had just landed flashed through the bushes and grabbed a sixteen or seventeen-year-old local remnant.

"It's an Ancient Remnant!"

"Kid, what did you just say?"

The black-robed man from the Five Elements Sect looked fierce as he held the youth.

"Bullying me shows no strength. If you have the ability, go find Xiao Mu! Xiao Mu has been waiting for you guys for a long time. He said for every one of you who comes, he'll kill one."

The young remnant was not afraid, and although he was held in the hand of the black-robed man from the Five Elements Sect, he still loudly conveyed the message.

"Xiao Mu, you're talking about Xiao Mu, is Xiao Mu in this world?"

The other man, dressed in blue, appeared more delicately groomed and looked calmer than the man in black.

This person also possessed significant oppressive force and turned out to be a high-level Divine Spirit.

"Not only is Xiao Mu in this world, he's also in this world waiting for you guys to go to him."

"He said, if you don't go to him, he will come to find you."

"Not only will he look for you, but he also plans to break into the Ancestor's Forbidden Area of Five Elements and kill the Ancestor of Five Elements."

The youth sneered without struggling. It seemed he was well aware of the strength of the Five Elements Sect people, knowing that struggling was pointless.

"Damn it!"

The black-robed man roared in anger, his right hand grasping the youth's animal skin unconsciously tightening.

How dare he speak of killing the Ancestor, this Xiao Mu is too arrogant.

The Light of Five Elements exploded, rushing from the right hand of the black-robed man into the body of the youth.

As the Five Elements Power surged into the body of the animal skin-clad young remnant, his body felt as though it was being sliced by knives, and he endured the pain with clenched teeth.

"Bullying me shows no strength. If you have the ability, go find Xiao Mu. I am just an Ancient Remnant who has never practiced Cultivation. If you wish to kill, then kill me. I'm not afraid. Xiao Mu will avenge me."

The animal skin-clad youth was in pain all over but did not concede a bit.

The blue-robed man pressed a hand on the shoulder of the man in black, stopping him, "Forget it, Lan Jun. Such an ordinary man is not worth killing. He's merely Xiao Mu's mouthpiece, nothing more. Put him down!"

"Hmph!"

The man in black, still resentful, threw the youth in animal skin down to the ground and let go.

Bang!

The animal skin-clad youth hit the ground hard, grimacing with pain.

Struggling to get up, the youth had only just stood when the blue-robed man pressed a hand on his shoulder.

The blue-robed man's gaze was sharp as an eagle's as he stared at the youth in animal skin, questioning coldly, "Kid, where is Xiao Mu?"

"Xiao Mu told us to inform you guys that he's headed for Kui Mountain."

Saying so, the youth, fearless and defiant, pointed in the direction of Kui Mountain. "Beneath the Golden City-God Authority's power, that's where Xiao Mu is. If you go there, within three thousand miles, you will be able to see. He said he welcomes you to go and court death!"
