I have a city in another world

Tang Zhen knew that the official cultivators of Oren City would continue to track him down and find out his true whereabouts.

Such a significant event, concerning the safety of Oren City, could not be taken lightly.

It is no exaggeration to say that after experiencing all sorts of things, Tang Zhen has become one of the most dangerous people in Oren City.

It's not that he committed numerous evils; that would actually make the situation easier to resolve—we could simply arrest and kill him.

Rather, it is his special identity that will lead to a series of changes, causing a very serious impact on the city of Oren.

Upon discovering that Tang Zhen had disappeared and was likely in the underworld, the authorities immediately began a search.

Whether it's life or death, we must find out the truth, instead of choosing to ignore it.

Although some official cultivators wished Tang Zhen and those dark cultivators would die, so that they could avoid a lot of trouble.

However, the higher-ups in Oren City knew that things were far from simple and could not be dealt with superficially.

Live to see people, die to see corpses.

Otherwise, if one day a high-ranking official inquires about this matter and the official in charge is unable to answer, they will inevitably be in big trouble.

This is the advantage of having a powerful backer. If it were an ordinary cultivator, who would care about your life or death?

The trapped people were rescued, and a corresponding investigation was launched. With such a big commotion, the officials of Oren City will definitely not let this go.

Before long, news about Tang Zhen began to spread in the underworld of Oren City.

A generous reward will be given for discovering Tang Zhen's whereabouts and reporting the information in a timely manner.

After the news spread, many people in the underworld were eager to get their hands on the reward.

They didn't care about Tang Zhen's identity, only about the tangible money. The official reward would definitely not be reneged on. Whoever found Tang Zhen would be set for life.
In a short period of time, the underground world became lively.

There were figures everywhere, many groups of fierce thugs, hiding in their own territory.

Besides wanting a reward, they were also worried about Tang Sanzang, fearing he might cause trouble on their territory.

However, this investigation yielded no results whatsoever; Tang Zhen seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Tang Zhen couldn't possibly have disappeared; he was simply hidden well enough that he wasn't found.

Perhaps at this moment, Tang Zhen was hiding in the shadows, quietly observing the situation outside.

This is indeed the case.

After entering the underground city, Tang Zhen began to wander around, walking through one passage after another.

The underground world's transportation network has various types, including tunnels, pipes, and sewage channels, all of which are part of the passageway.

There are also many secret passages and underground spaces that are not open to the public, controlled by various forces.

Unless you go inside, you'll never know the true structure of the environment or what's hidden inside.

Tang Zhen changed his appearance and disguised himself as a local, slowly walking through the underground space.

On his shoulder floated a bound soul, the very same assassin who had been killed during the sneak attack.

Assassins, being local bigwigs, are very knowledgeable about the underworld and are now acting as guides on the sidelines.

Tang Zhen cultivates a forgetting technique that can influence the surrounding environment, thereby blurring his own sense of existence.

After years of persistent practice, he has reached a level of consummate skill and has become increasingly stronger as his strength has increased.

Walking through the dungeon, the dim and complex environment will further enhance the concealment effect.

Even when walking towards each other on a narrow street, passersby wouldn't pay any attention to Tang Zhen.

When passersby try to recall, it's often a blur, and they can't remember any useful information.

The more you think about it, the more blurred it becomes, until you completely forget it.

If you encounter a high-level cultivator and your concealment techniques are insufficient to hide, you can activate the artifact fragments you stole from the assassin.

The combined effect caused high-level cultivators to completely ignore Tang Zhen; even if he stood right in front of them, their sensory and memory functions would be rendered useless.

Using these methods, Tang Zhen was like a trapped dragon entering the sea, freely roaming the underground world.

People from various factions kept passing by Tang Zhen, but they were completely unaware that the target they had been searching for was right in front of them.

Tang Zhen took out a map, carefully compared it, and determined his location. However, he had no clue about the meeting place. He asked the assassin soul beside him, but the assassin was also unsure.

Although he understood the underground city and knew the rules and common sense of the dark world, he could not know the exact location of every place.

Not to mention, the underground city has an extremely complex environment, and no one dares to say they fully understand it.

This is normal. If it were a deity here, they would probably have to ask around first.

Tang Zhen planned to ask someone for directions. The person needed to be familiar with the area and able to determine the exact location based on the information Tang Zhen provided.

It turns out that this rendezvous mission did not provide a specific location, but instead provided a code word.

Based on the description in the code, locate the rendezvous point and then attempt to make contact with the target.

The fact that it's so complicated indicates that this matter is not simple.

Tang Zhen didn't know the specifics of the mission, nor did he have any interest in finding out.

Do what you're supposed to do, and let everything take its natural course.

After randomly arresting several unlucky individuals and interrogating them, Tang Zhen identified a target.

In the underworld, many organizations exist, engaging in all sorts of businesses.

Some of these organizations specialize in intelligence gathering and have a wide range of information sources.

It's no exaggeration to say that there's no information they can't find out in the entire underworld.

One of the organizations is located near a shop that is open 24 hours a day.

When Tang Zhen found the shop according to the information, he found it unusually lively.

All sorts of men and women gathered inside the shop, all looking anxious.

After carefully inquiring about the reason, Tang Zhen couldn't help but smile slightly.

It turned out that all the men and women in the room had come for him, wanting to spend money to buy intelligence.

It has to be said, this is a ridiculous thing.

At this moment, both official organizations and underground forces are searching everywhere for Tang Zhen's whereabouts.

They all received bonuses, the amounts of which were astonishingly high.

If the intelligence organization knew Tang Zhen's whereabouts, they would take the reward themselves. Why would they sell it to these organization members?

This impossible thing happened at this very moment, and people were even willing to pay for it.

It turns out that the information sold by intelligence organizations is the result of deduction and has a high degree of credibility.

Compared to aimless searching, this kind of intelligence information, which has certain auxiliary value, naturally attracted the attention of both large and small forces.

They all hoped to use this information to successfully find Tang Zhen's whereabouts and achieve a great victory with a small investment.

This approach isn't necessarily wrong; it's just that the chances of success are extremely low. But as long as there's even the slightest possibility, organizations of all sizes will never give up.

When Tang Zhen entered the room, no one noticed him at all, as if no one had entered at all.

This is a large group of low-level cultivators, so it's quite normal that they couldn't sense Tang Zhen's presence.

Ignoring the crowd, Tang Zhen entered through a hidden door on the side.

Following the hidden door, passing busy people and bypassing many operating machines, Tang Zhen arrived at a house with guards on duty.

Inside this house, there are three specially made chairs, on which sit three alien cultivators.

Its head is as big as a millstone, and its scalp has many small holes from which a mucus-like substance constantly flows out.

Metal wires made of gold and silver were inserted into the holes in these skulls, and sparks could be seen flashing from time to time.

The surrounding walls were covered with numerous crystal screens, constantly displaying dazzling streams of data.

This involves using one's powerful divine sense to communicate and process various data, and then conducting a scientific and rational analysis.

The information about the shops for sale actually originated from this one house, and it's just one node in a vast database. (End of Chapter)
