Chapter 134: Enjoyed it, didn't you?_i
The Life and Death Golden Cudgel soared to the clouds, the mighty Immortal Power Fluctuation dispersing the layers of clouds.
Everyone looked on with envy, even Feng Wanli hesitated for a moment, thinking that if he did not return to the Immortal World, he might have a chance to get a Rule Immortal Weapon refined by Li Cheng!
While they envied, everyone was acutely aware that their relationship with Li Cheng was not close enough to casually ask him to refine a weapon for them, especially since they were not as shameless as that monkey.
“Marvelous, it weighs a hundred and eighty million catties, and there’s a Formation inside that amplifies the weight, which can be exponentially increased with Immortal Power, exactly what I wanted!”
Monkey Kongxu shrunk the Life and Death Golden Cudgel to six feet long, excitedly waving it around, causing the air to tremble continuously.
“What a pity, a mighty Golden Immortal can’t even go out for a stroll!” Monkey Kongxu commented again.
“Are you trying to show off your Golden Cudgel? Forget it, what if you met a powerful Loose Immortal? How would being a Golden Immortal help you then? You’d still get thrashed,” Clan Leader Qingfeng said teasingly.
Monkey Kongxu pursed his lips; with the precedent set by Grand Venerable Bai Jie, even an Immortal Emperor had to be extremely cautious in the Kunlun Realm, let alone a Golden Immortal.
“It’s about time, I wish everyone gains something in Tian Yuan City, Taoist Friend Feng, shall we set off?” Mingyue asked.
Feng Wanli looked towards Li Cheng and upon seeing his nod, said, “Let’s go then!”
Soon, the group boarded an Immortal Boat of the Wood Elf Clan and arrived at the entrance.
Those whose Cultivation had reached the Immortal Realm could not enter the valley ahead, and they could only accompany them here, watching as Li Cheng and the others entered the valley, walking into the cave mouth.
“All, it’s all part of the Kunlun Realm, why can’t we go out!” Monkey Kongxu sighed.
In these Ancient Ruins, although the resources were plentiful, over time, he craved the outside world even more.
However, after becoming an Immortal, he had never been able to leave again.
“Someone asked this same question back in the day, and didn’t Li Baijie say that the time hadn’t come yet?” Elder Qingfeng said.
“For more than ten thousand years we’ve been preparing. If it’s as Li Baijie said, sooner or later the day will come when the Kunlun Realm will be fully unveiled, numerous Ancient Ruins will appear in the world, and that’s when our crisis will also arrive,” Mingyue said.
All nodded in agreement, according to Li Baijie’s calculations from back then, that day was not far off.
Li Cheng and the others emerged from the tree hole, and everyone excitedly took in the icy, snow-covered world before them.
“Nearly two hundred million li away, it would take half a year by Immortal Boat. Li Cheng, you must have a way to get us back quickly, right?” Feng Wanli said with a smile.
The speed of the Immortal Boat was a bit faster than that of a Complete Heavenly Immortal Cultivator, but to traverse nearly two hundred million li, they would definitely miss the opening of Tian Yuan City.
Ye Chenfeng had indeed handed that Compass to Feng Wanli, but that thing could at most cover five people for teleportation and couldn’t be used without limit, so they had to rely on Li Cheng now.
Li Cheng nodded, “A small matter!”
He did not want to waste time on the Immortal Boat either, so he simply set up a Transmission Array to fly directly to the vicinity of Taoist Mysterious Sect.
To traverse nearly two hundred million li, ordinary Transmission Arrays simply couldn’t do it, a Cross-domain Teleportation Array was needed.
But this was not a problem for Li Cheng.
Four hours passed, and suddenly, a fluctuation in space appeared outside Kan City to the north of Taoist Mysterious Sect.
The next moment, over a hundred figures emerged from the fluctuation in space.
Li Cheng released his Immortal Sense and couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows; his Immortal Sense could now cover a radius of twenty million li!
To the south, a little over ten thousand li away, was Kan City, but curiously, dusk had just fallen, and the city gates were already tightly shut, with not a soul on the streets!
This was drastically different from what he had seen the last time.
“Curfew? What happened? This is unheard of.” Feng Wanli also noticed the anomaly, his face filled with confusion.
Li Cheng pondered, “The forces of the Southern Domain are joining hands to deal with the Ten Thousand Evils Cave. It seems that the situation has not been optimistic during the two months we’ve been away.”
“Hmm, we’ll know if we ask Xuan Yifeng,” Feng Wanli nodded.
“He’s not at the Taoist Mysterious Sect. There are only a few Loose Immortals left to guard the place, and no one from Zhongnan Yin-Yang Ridge has come over; it seems the powerful ones have all gathered elsewhere,” Li Cheng said as he glanced towards the nearby Zhongnan Yin-Yang Ridge.
“This time, it’s your Heavenly Mechanism Sect leading the charge against the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, so they must have gathered at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!” Feng Wanli declared.
Li Cheng nodded and took out the Message Jade Slip to contact Mu Xingzhi.
Soon, Mu Xingzhi replied, and just as Li Cheng speculated, the powerhouses of the Southern Domain had all gathered at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, ready to launch a full-scale attack on the Ten Thousand Evils Cave.
“It’s rumored that the Ten Thousand Evils Cave is deeply hidden. I didn’t expect that with the combined forces of the Southern Domain, they could actually find its lair,” Li Cheng nodded. With the fall of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, the Southern Domain would be considered peaceful.
“Oh? They’ve found the lair of the Ten Thousand Evils Cave. That definitely means war. Li Cheng, we can’t miss this!” Feng Wanli’s eyes lit up.
Li Cheng sized up Feng Wanli, “With your current state, don’t end up as someone else’s tonic.”
Feng Wanli’s mouth twitched, “Can’t you say something nice for once?”
“First, let’s get them settled at the Taoist Mysterious Sect, and then we’ll head to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect,” Li Cheng suggested.
Feng Wanli certainly had no objections and began to make arrangements immediately.
Once everything was set, Li Cheng grabbed Feng Wanli and, using the Immortal Spirit Step, rushed to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
The Heavenly Mechanism Sect had now expanded by over a hundred peaks around its border, its territory no less than that of the Taoist Mysterious Sect.
To Li Cheng’s surprise, the Central Galaxy Map was spread out above the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!
“The Central Galaxy Map appearing here means that Qin Wuhun and the others have returned,” Feng Wanli silently breathed a sigh of relief.
If those Confucian Immortals were involved in dealing with the Ten Thousand Evils Cave, he felt there would definitely be no problem.
“Where had they been before?”
Li Cheng asked curiously. The Confucian Immortals had said they would return before the opening of Tianyuan City, but their whereabouts had been unknown.
Without any concealment, Feng Wanli smiled and said, “Here’s the thing, I sent them a message, telling them that the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map was in a dangerous place within our Southern Domain, and so they came!”
“Previously, Shu Wangjuan and Hua Bufan rushed to investigate it, Yun Fuxue and Qin Wuhun accompanied us in exploring Zhongnan Yin-Yang Ridge and only afterward did they go to meet up with Shu Wangjuan and the others.”
“Now that the Central Galaxy Map protects the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, they surely want to tell me that they did not find the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map!”
Just as Feng Wanli finished speaking, from within the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, a streak of light swiftly approached. Before the figure arrived, an unhappy voice came forth, “You, you must have had no idea where the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map was and just lured us to the Southern Domain with it, right?”
The person who arrived was none other than Qin Wuhun.
Qin Wuhun stopped a few meters away from Li Cheng and Feng Wanli, and just as he was about to scold Feng Wanli, he suddenly frowned and scrutinized Feng Wanli up and down.
He was quite curious, as Feng Wanli’s Immortal Body was gone?
Gathering his thoughts, Qin Wuhun clicked his tongue, “Talking nonsense about knowing the whereabouts of the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map, and now the retribution has come, hasn’t it?”
Feng Wanli coughed dryly, “I didn’t talk nonsense; the Four-sided Lamp Fire Map is definitely in there. It’s just that you all didn’t find it, that’s all.”
Without waiting for Qin Wuhun to speak, Feng Wanli continued, “That’s not the point. The focus now is on the Ten Thousand Evils Cave!”
Qin Wuhun’s eyes were full of disdain, “Using us, feeling thrilled, huh?”
