even so, he was no match for Jiang Yun's single move of the Mist Art and several bolts of thunder power.After a long while, someone mumbled, “Is the Tenfold Meridian Vein really this powerful It effo...As the transmission beam flared to life, not only had Jiang Yun effortlessly passed through the entrance of Heaven Beyond Heavens, but he now found himself within a vast manor! This was Heaven Beyond Heavens! To outsiders, it was merely known that Heaven Beyond Heavens held its own unique world, a separate realm.

But in reality, Tiānwài Tiān is far more complex and vast than outsiders imagine.

When Jiang Yun learned the true nature of Heaven Beyond Heavens from Fan Xiao's memories, although he wasn't too shocked, he was still somewhat surprised.

The entire Heaven's Realm is divided into nine major areas, also known as the Nine Heavens.

Every heavenly realm is equivalent to a world, with an area that is incredibly vast.

Naturally, all prisoners are also categorized and imprisoned in specific realms.

As for this, Jiang Yun was not surprised at all.

After all, when he was in the Sea of Mountains back then, he himself was treated as a criminal and imprisoned in the Dao prison.

The prison is not a single level, but has as many as nine levels. Each level is truly its own world.

However, the prisoners held in Tiangui (Heaven Within Heaven) far surpassed those in Dao Prison in terms of both strength and status.

What truly surprised Jiang Yun was that the guards of Tiantoutian were like an army, with a very clear and strict hierarchical distinction from top to bottom.

The ruler of the entire outer heavens, called Tianshuai, is named Leng Yichen, a quasi-emperor powerhouse.

Below the Heavenly Marshal, there are nine Celestial Generals, each in charge of nine major regions.

And under heaven, there are also deputy generals, commanders of varying ranks, and centurions.

A centurion commands one hundred men, a captain commands five hundred men, a general commands one thousand men, and a lieutenant general commands three thousand men.

Fan Xiao was just the lowest level of soldier, while Liu Meng was surprisingly a centurion, in charge of a hundred guards.

In summary, in the world of "Tianwai Tian," the higher one's official rank, the greater their power, and the more they know.

Therefore, what Gingercloud gleaned about the Heavenly Realm from Fanxiao's memories was pitifully scant.

However, the ranks of every celestial guardian are not static.

To be promoted, one needs military merit.

Just like in the ruins of an imperial battle from the chaotic world, you need to complete tasks to stand out.

Military merit, in the heavens above the heavens, is equivalent to wealth and experience, and is of great use.

With military merits, you can exchange for anything you want.

Emperor Source Stone, Pills, Techniques, Spells, Weapons.

Even women, ranks and titles are included.

Apart from these exchanges, there are some special cultivation sites within the Heavenly Palace.

For example, a place where time flows faster for someone like Ginger Cloud, or a place completely saturated with a certain power.

According to one's own cultivation method, entering the corresponding place of cultivation can naturally achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Of course, to enter these cultivation grounds, one also needs to exchange military merit for qualifications and time.

In short, military achievements are boundless and can be said to be omnipotent.

And the ways to obtain military merit are also numerous. The simplest way is to exchange it for something, or even buy it with celestial stones.

However, the military merit you exchange or purchase with things is not at all commensurate with what you put in.

Especially when purchasing military merits, after reaching a certain amount, the celestial stones required to buy more will increase exponentially.

For example, buying one point of military merit costs 100 pieces of heavenly stones, but buying 100 points of military merit requires 50,000 pieces of heavenly stones.

Purchasing one thousand military merits also requires millions of pieces of Tian Di Stone.

And a centurion needs 10,000 military merits and hundreds of millions of heaven stones.

Therefore, even if you are a wealthy and influential family, at most you can only buy a centurion.

Besides, becoming a Centurian through spending Tiandi Stones is not easy. Unless you're very strong or good at socializing, your subordinates won't follow you.

Besides purchasing, there are other ways to gain military merit, such as improving one's cultivation, participating in military competitions, and completing various types of missions.

It is not hard to see that Heavenly Mandate encourages all guards to strive for military merit and compete with each other.

For this, TiānwàiTiān specially made a list of military achievements, listing the top 100 cultivators who had earned the most.

It's a pity that Fan Xiao's military merit is too low, only a paltry one hundred points. That was what he earned after raising his cultivation level by a small realm.

So he wasn't even qualified to know who was on the list of military honors, let alone enter it.

However, even without much military merit, even someone like Fan Xiao who could only live at the bottom of Tianwai Tian's guardhouse, at least they still had a place to live, which is the manor that Jiang Yun now finds himself in.

A manor, with a hundred houses, was home to a hundred heavenly guards.

The entire estate is exceptionally beautiful. Each house is a standalone villa, equipped with simple wards to prevent disturbance from outsiders.

Now, the manor is eerily silent, with no sign of anyone.

Besides going out to execute missions and patrol, once Fan Xiao returned, he shut himself indoors, never leaving his house and avoiding all contact with others. This left Jiang Yun clueless as to why there was no one else around.

And he is not ready to consider this issue now.

According to Fan Xiao's memory, Ginger Yun came to his residence with ease.

Jiang Yun took a step inside, closed the courtyard door, and let out a long breath.

So far, so good. At least inside Heaven's Gate, no one has recognized his true identity. He has successfully passed the first test.

Pretending to be the guards of heaven and hiding all around, no one would dare to do such a thing.

For once discovered, not only would he face death, but his entire family would be implicated as well.

Don't be fooled by the apparent ease of access, with a little money you can enter paradise. It seems that management here is extremely lax.

But in fact, any guard who enters the Heavenly Court, their family background and everything else about them will all be investigated thoroughly.

Moreover, even the guards of Heaven's Gate are at risk of losing their lives.

Danger doesn't mean being bullied like Fan Xiao, but rather comes from military competitions, capturing criminals and so on.

Throughout history, who knows how many guards have died at the hands of criminals, or on the competition stage.

Under these circumstances, who would be willing to impersonate the guardians of the Heavenly Realm and enter the Heavenly Realm

Jiang Yun sat on the stone chair in the courtyard, looking at the winding stream in front of him and said to himself, "Now that I have successfully infiltrated Tiangwai Tian, then next, I will work hard to earn military merit!"

He can't possibly answer that. Fan Xiao knows far too little about the heavens beyond, and he doesn't even know which layer of heaven he belongs to himself.

Jiangyun wanted to know the whereabouts of his imprisoned parents. The only way to get close to them was to earn military merit and raise his rank.

Unless one becomes a celestial being, or at the very least, a president, they probably wouldn't be qualified to know the answers to these questions.

Fortunately, Jiang Yun is not Fan Xiao. Unlike Fan Xiao, who just wants to be a turtle in its shell, Jiang Yun has many ways to gain military merit.

The only thing he had to worry about was how to avoid suspicion after gaining military merit.

After all, his personality was vastly different from Fan Xiao's. He couldn't possibly continue to be a turtle like Fan Xiao.

"If I were to buy it, I wouldn't consider it for now. This is a time of hardship and poverty. Where would I find Heavenly Stones to buy military merits"

Then I'll just have to head back and see what missions are available.

Jiang Yun looked up, gazing at the azure sky above. A trace of longing, suppressed for a long time, finally appeared in his eyes.

Jiang Yun murmured from his mouth: "Father, mother, now I am also in Tianwai Tian. I am truly close to you."

"You must all take good care of yourselves and wait for me!"

Just as Jiang Yun's voice fell, the longing in his eyes was instantly replaced by a cold light. He lowered his head and looked at the gate of his courtyard.

Outside the door, stood two monks. They were two of the four guards who had killed Fan Xiao today!ow!"Evidently, Ye Younan was not prepared to go in with Jiang Yun.Ginger understood the reason, so naturally she didn't force it. She smiled and nodded, saying: "Okay, I'll go in by myself. But Miss Y...
