Purple Cloud Sect and Consort Zhu Lin are sworn enemies, yet they unexpectedly appeared here together.
“Fang Daoyou.” Li Hongxiu, who was once a guest elder of the Xiaoyao Sect, recognized Fang Youxin, and the four from Xiaoyao Sect greeted him. Fang Youxin merely responded lightly.
The five individuals from Fang Youxin were dressed differently and behaved distantly, clearly not from the same group. They were likely cultivators from Xianxia City who happened to cross paths.
After waiting for a while in the resting area, the five entered the Transmission Room. The other three hurriedly stepped into the Teleportation Array, signaling for Fang Youxin and Qiao Li to enter quickly.
Xu Feng just exchanged greetings with Fang Youxin, and before they could chat further, Fang Youxin entered the Teleportation Array, saying, “Xu Feng, don’t worry. Your senior sister has already gone to Li Hua Palace. Her cultivation level won’t be lower than yours.” He noticed that Xu Feng had advanced to the Mid Stage of Nascent Soul, and he was impressed by Xu Feng's progress.
It was expected that Cai Shujun had gone to Li Hua Palace. He wondered how she was doing after a hundred years. With the situation in Liuxiang Kingdom critical, did she even know?
As the Teleportation Array activated, the five disappeared.
The Transmitting Disciple, while checking the Teleportation Array, muttered, “Another group heading to Dawn City…”
Upon hearing this, Xu Feng felt a tightening in his chest. The members of Xiaoyao Sect were going to Dawn City, and now Fang Youxin and Qiao Li were also heading there. Including himself, three groups were already on their way to Dawn City. Was this merely a coincidence?
The people from Xiaoyao Sect also sensed this. Zhou Elder asked, “Excuse me, how many people have gone to Dawn City today?”
“Ten,” replied the Transmitting Disciple, focused on adjusting the Teleportation Array.
Zhou Elder murmured, “Ten. Who knows how many more will go?”
The Transmitting Disciple stepped out of the array and said, “I don’t know how many more are going. I only know that you cannot go today.”
Guo Ruomin asked in surprise, “Why not?”
"Because the Teleportation Array's spirit stones are used up, we need to reinstall it."
"Changing the spirit stones shouldn't take long, right?"
"I'll take care of it."
The disciples of the Shenxing Sect were truly impressive; they could only show off here. Once outside the Shenxing Sect, any random person present could easily defeat them.
Xu Feng stepped forward and smiled, "Fellow cultivator, I've had a tough journey. Could you please allow me to stay here for one night?" With several members of the Xiaoyao Sect watching, Xu Feng's chances of leaving safely were slim.
"Turn left and walk ten miles; there's a temple where you can stay. This is the Shenxing Sect, not an inn."
The four members of the Xiaoyao Sect sneered with delight.
Under the watchful eyes of the Transmitting Disciple, Xu Feng and his group were escorted out of the Shenxing Sect.
Just as they were about to be kicked out, Xu Feng suddenly ran back and chuckled, "Fellow cultivator, I just remembered that I also have experience repairing the Teleportation Array. I won't need to stay; I can help you fix it. I've already prepared some replacement spirit stones for you. Do you think this is enough? If not, I have more." He handed a storage bag to the Transmitting Disciple, which contained two thousand High-Quality Spirit Stones.
The four members of the Xiaoyao Sect were stunned by Xu Feng's bold move; this was outright bribery. They thought Xu Feng was doomed, but now it seemed he had turned the situation around.
Sure enough, under Xu Feng's blatant display of spirit stones, the Transmitting Disciple had no choice but to accept. He grabbed the storage bag and said, "Hmm, with these spirit stones, we can barely manage to fix it. You'll have to help me repair the Teleportation Array tonight."
That's it; Xu Feng had escaped a crisis. The Teleportation Array wasn't really that problematic and would definitely work again. At that point, Xu Feng could easily find an excuse not to teleport with the Xiaoyao Sect and avoid their ambush.
Guo Ruomin was just about to approach and imitate Xu Feng's actions when he was met with a stern glare from the Transmitting Disciple.
That night, Xu Feng stayed at the Shenxing Sect. As for whether he assisted in repairing the Teleportation Array, only the disciples of Shenxing Sect would know. The four members of Xiaoyao Sect stood guard outside the door, preventing Xu Feng from escaping, like four gatekeepers.
The Transmitting Disciple could naturally see the relationship between Xu Feng and the members of Xiaoyao Sect, but chose to ignore it. Now that he held some power, he thought it better to take advantage of the situation. The two thousand High-Quality Spirit Stones Xu Feng had were worth several months of his salary—why not take them?
Next, the Teleportation Array was activated as scheduled. Guo Ruomin had entered early and was among the first batch. To everyone's surprise, Xu Feng did not miss the transmission but chose to teleport to Dawn City together with Xiaoyao Sect.
This decision delighted Guo Ruomin. Once they arrived in Dawn City, if he could find a moment to follow Xu Feng out, three Divine Separation Practitioners could easily crush him.
Three more people entered, also heading to Dawn City; they were arranged in the second batch.
Buzz! The Teleportation Array activated, and Xu Feng and the five others were transmitted away.
Dawn City was five hundred thousand miles from Xianxia City and was similar in scale. When Xu Feng arrived, there were already over a dozen people waiting in the Transmission Room. Fortunately, Dawn City had two Teleportation Arrays; as soon as they arrived here, someone was sent away on the other side.
"Hey there, I need to go to Floating Cloud Town right now," Xu Feng said to the Transmitting Disciple in Dawn City.
The Transmitting Disciple nodded and replied, "It will be ready shortly." He gestured for Xu Feng to wait a moment.
Upon hearing that they were going to Floating Cloud Town, the four members of Xiaoyao Sect exchanged strange glances because they were also headed there. If their trips to Longmen Town and Dawn City were coincidences, then going to Floating Cloud Town surely wasn't.
This was one of the few teleportation points Xu Feng needed to pass through on his way back to Daming Lake.
Guo Ruomin smirked and said, "Xu Feng, what a coincidence! We're also going to Floating Cloud Town; looks like we have a companion."
Xu Feng guessed part of the reason and replied, "It's fate! Please take care of me in the future."
From Xibai City, along the way, other Divine Separation Practitioners continuously joined, all heading to the same destination. It was too coincidental to be explained otherwise: their destination was the Sealing Magic Gorge.
According to Xu Ruchu, the Sealing Magic Gorge opens once every thirty years, and only cultivators above the Yuan Ying level can enter. It had already opened two years ago, so if these people were indeed going there, they would be like Xu Feng, arriving late. What kind of situation is the Sealing Magic Gorge that allows for latecomers? Aren't they afraid others will snatch away the good things first?
With Xu Feng's direction confirmed, Guo Ruomin no longer worried. Hmph, once they reach the Sealing Magic Gorge, you won't be able to escape.
Soon, it was time for Xu Feng and Guo Ruomin's group to be transported. With a soft sound, they were sent away.
Next, they passed through Yan City and Huamu Town, finally arriving at Sanyang Town by Daming Lake.
Indeed, the four members of Xiaoyao Sect were also headed to the Sealing Magic Gorge, following the exact same route as Xu Feng. As they passed through the two intermediate teleportation points, dozens of cultivators joined them. These cultivators were primarily Separation of Spirit practitioners, with a small number of Yuan Ying Cultivators. Unsurprisingly, they were all going to the Sealing Magic Gorge.
Initially, Xu Feng could only guess; later, those cultivators began discussing matters related to the Sealing Magic Gorge in public. From their conversations, Xu Feng learned more about it.
Long ago, during the Great War between the demon clan and the Celestial Alliance, after their defeat and scattering, one powerful elder from the demon clan was trapped in the Beast Wasteland. A mighty figure from the Righteous Path used secret techniques to manipulate all poisonous barriers within a thousand miles to surround him. That demon expert ultimately perished there, and the place where he was trapped became known as the Sealing Magic Gorge.
The Righteous Path Cultivator also exhausted his spiritual power and died on the spot. The poison formation he set up could not be removed in time and gradually formed a thousand-mile poison zone. Beasts living near this poison zone evolved resistance to toxins and could freely enter and exit the Sealing Magic Gorge without being affected by the poisonous mist. Thus, the thousand-mile Sealing Magic Gorge became a sacred ground for beasts, filled with abundant spiritual herbs and even old demon beast inner cores could be found.
For some unknown reason, every thirty years, the poisonous mist in the Sealing Magic Gorge automatically dissipates and then gathers again after a month. Knowing this characteristic, cultivators head to the Sealing Magic Gorge every thirty years to try their luck while also honing their skills.
However, since the Sealing Magic Gorge is closest to Daming Lake, it has always been primarily frequented by three main sects: the Xu Family, Yue Family, and Peace Blade Sect. This time, for some unknown reason, people from all five major lakes have come over; it seems that it’s not just for training anymore.
One fears that things might change; Xu Ruchu may have known this long ago and insisted that Xu Feng accompany her. With her strength, if a conflict arises, it would be difficult to retreat unscathed. Having Xu Feng's speed would provide a bit more safety.
Outside Shenxing Sect in Sanyang Town stood many cultivators who had just been teleported in. Dozens of Spirit Beast Cars lined up coming in and out like a bus station; there was no shouting because everyone had the same destination—there was no need to shout or dare to do so.
Xu Feng walked out of the Shenxing Sect, with Guo Ruomin closely following behind. With so many people watching, the three Divine Separation Practitioners from Xiaoyao Sect felt it inappropriate to take action against Xu Feng, who was at the Nascent Soul Stage.
"Xu Feng," someone called from a distance; it was Fang Youxin. Fang Youxin had arrived before Xu Feng but may have been delayed by something along the way, and they ended up meeting again in Sanyang Town.
Consort Zhu Lin only sent Fang Youxin, and upon seeing Xu Feng, she greeted him as if he were a fellow sect member. Xu Feng had previously represented Consort Zhu Lin in a decisive victory over the Purple Cloud Sect, leaving a deep impression on Fang Youxin. With only Fang Youxin remaining as a Divine Separation Stage Cultivator among Consort Zhu Lin's representatives, he felt somewhat outmatched in this gathering of Spirit Separation practitioners.
"Senior Fang," they had met briefly in Longmen Town and parted ways after just a few words; this time, they happened to be traveling together.
Fang Youxin said, "Xu Feng, I didn't expect you to be heading to Sealing Magic Gorge as well. It's been a hundred years since we last met, and your strength has improved significantly." Xu Feng had defeated the Nascent Soul Stage practitioners of the Purple Cloud Sect when he was only at the Golden Core Stage, so Fang Youxin had every reason to believe that Xu Feng could defeat a Divine Separation Practitioner now.
Xu Feng replied, "Senior is too kind; I feel quite ashamed." Although Fang Youxin had not advanced to the Mid Stage of Spirit Separation in the past hundred years, his cultivation level had improved considerably and he was close to making that breakthrough.
They exchanged smiles and boarded a Spirit Beast Car heading toward Sealing Magic Gorge. These Spirit Beast Cars were pulled by flying spirit beasts at the Golden Core Stage, offering both speed and stability.
The four members of Xiaoyao Sect looked at each other helplessly as they could only watch Xu Feng disappear from sight.
