“Duan Mude, the Honorable Captain of the Yuanyang City Guards and the Executive Elder of the Heavenly Academy.”

The cultivator in the lead was wearing a silver robe; he was one of the cultivators who had witnessed Fang Qi destroying the sword slaves with Castellan Zong Wu at Cloud Ocean Square.

“Seth Mogus Blackdragon from the Black Dragon Family in Ultimate West Realm.” The man who was older than the others and looked about 40 years old spoke. He had blond curly hair, he looked bright, and he was fluent in the native language of the Spiritual State.

Although the cultivators in the Spiritual State called them western barbarians, they wouldn’t call themselves ‘barbarians’. They usually referred to themselves as people of the Ultimate West Realm or Ultimate West Land.

These people had borrowed the term ‘families’ from the cultivators in the Spiritual State. They had four big families, and this man came from the Black Dragon Family, which was one of the four.

In fact, the languages of the people from the Spiritual State and the Deserted Sea Realm; they were similar with only a few differences. The people of the Ultimate West Realm had their own language, and some of them had learned and mastered the language of the Spiritual State.

Some of them had even given themselves names using the language of the Spiritual State. For example, Seth said, “You can also call me Luo Piaoling.”

Luo Piaoling had excellent manners. Some of them put extra emphasis on good manners probably because they knew that they were called barbarians.

Of course, others just acted as what people of the Spiritual State expected them to be. The red-haired young man beside Luo Piaoling tried to speak using the language of the Spiritual State, but it sounded strange and awkward, “The swords are so slim that they can’t even be used as toothpicks. Aren’t you afraid that you will fall from them?”

“Not at all.” Duan Mude landed slowly. With one hand casting a sword spell, his flying sword grew bigger than the double-handed broad sword that these visitors were using. “With this wondrous sword control technique, even a person with a big body can stand on it.”

Then, he moved his fingers, and the sword immediately split into two and then to four. “You can even fly with others if you want; it all depends on your skill.”

The visitors were dazed.

“This is the second son of the Frost Dragon Family Master.”

“You can call me with my Spiritual State name.” The red-haired handsome young man leaped down from the horned dragon and proudly interrupted the introduction. “Before I came here, I gave myself a name to use in the Spiritual State.”

In case you don’t understand my grand and majestic real name, he thought.

Duan Mude was secretly relieved that he didn’t have to memorize the weird names of the western barbarians; they were all strange to him. He immediately asked about it.

The handsome red-head said with cold arrogance, “Lei Dazhuang!” [TL Note: Dazhuang means big and strong, but it is a bad-sounding name is Chinese.]

Duan Mude’s face twitched. “… Good name!”

“Of course!” Lei Dazhuang said proudly, “I know that in your language, ‘zhuang’ means powerful and masters. Of course, Dazhuang means the master among masters.”

“…” Duan Mude gave him a thumbs-up and said, “Young Master, you have an excellent name.”

Luo Piaoling was standing on the side, and his face twitched as well.

Then, he introduced the valiant-looking woman who was wearing a red dress and silver armor, “This is Ms. Sia of the Red Dragon Family.”

Duan Mude nodded at her slightly. This woman was a genius even among the barbarians who focused on the path of the warrior. She had reached the King Warrior Realm at such a young age.

“This is Elder Andrew of our Black Dragon Family.” He gestured toward an old man who was wearing black armor and had a brown mustache.

“This is Elder Lu Mingwei of the Red Dragon Family.” He pointed at a middle-aged man with long hair reaching his shoulder and said, “His ancestors came from the Spiritual State.”

“Please come in!” After the introductions and greetings, Duan Mude asked in a low voice, “Where’s Castellan Zong?”

“He went to the internet café to take a seat… he told us to send him a message to his communication jade when the visitors come…”

“…” Duan Mude’s face turned dark. “I’ll take you guys to the Taiwang Inn to rest; we’ll go to the Heavenly Academy tomorrow.”

– Meanwhile, in the Origins Internet Club –

Li Haoran asked, [Do you plan to rebuild the teleportation array?]

In fact, there were teleportation arrays in the Legend of the Sword and Fairy and Diablo 2.

Even the Legend of Mir 2 had random teleportation and instant teleportation spells.

The most convenient method was the teleportation magic spell in Harry Potter. With enough energy, it was faster to move from one zone to another than the sword control technique.

Of course, if one failed, one could lose a limb or a body part, which made it not suitable for battles.

At the current stage, the best option was the teleportation technology in Diablo.

It could be a spatial portal or an array disk; it was a very mature system.

However, the teleportation arrays in Diablo had drawbacks. For example, the people who wanted to use them must pass them and light up the array on the other side before they could be teleported to the exact location.

Only the type of teleportation gates in the mysterious Sanctuary in Act II of Diablo could teleport people without meeting those criteria.

If this kind of teleportation arrays was developed, people could be even teleported to another world, but it was quite difficult for these cultivators to research and make.

The only good news was that Heavenly Academy had the expertise to build one type of teleportation arrays.

“I’m surprised that this shop even defeated the Nangong Family and those few godly swords.” On the shore of the Heavenly Abyss Sea, black winds howled. The black figure standing on the cliff by the sea said after a pause, “Only three godly swords came out from the Nangong Family, but two of them are on the immortal-slayer-level.”

“Does it mean that the opponent’s strength is above the immortal-slayer-level?” The black figure sounded greedy. “The pair of Daoist eyes gave him so much power? No… it should belong to us!”

The chilly rainfall and blowing breeze made it sound like someone was whispering. A ghost-like figure said, “My spies brought me news. They are going to repair the teleportation array.”

“We can’t let them repair the array.” His voice was as faint as a breeze while his words whispered in the sky, “We can’t let them find out the truth about that person’s downfall… at least, not now.”

“If this person with strength on the immortal-slayer-level combines his power with those of the ancient families…” The ghost-like figure said, “We might not be able to defeat them for sure.”

“Damn it…” The black shadow said with hatred, “Our clan has arrived at the last moment after scheming for many years; we must get them! Otherwise, we will… turn into ashes in tribulations…”

A murderous spirit appeared around them, and it seemed like no one could stop him as he was determined to do whatever he must even at the price of his life.

“Then…” Their voices got even fainter until vanishing in the darkness. The last words seemed to be, “Let’s go into that shop and test the waters…”
