Chapter 697: Qianling Immortal City

In the Extreme Void Domain, Hidden Spirit Island emitted a peculiar wave.

The chaotic currents of time and space, hidden beneath the surface, began to stabilize gradually.

The entire Hidden Spirit Island radiated an intensely bright blue light, and a sound akin to an engine starting echoed from within the island.

“Grape, if we were to convert this into horsepower, how much would it be?” Xu Fan joked, feeling an inexplicable sense of relief as they were about to leave this strange area.

“Three hundred sixty trillion horsepower,” Grape replied in a calm voice.

“From one to ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million, billion, trillion…” Xu Fan shook his head, too lazy to continue counting, as it was simply an enormous number.

At this moment, the disciples in the core world of Hidden Spirit Island also heard the sound.

The Spirit Rabbits, huddled together for warmth, seemed frightened, burying their heads in their chests.

Despite the efforts of the Precious Artifact Rabbits nearby to comfort them, the Spirit Rabbits remained visibly terrified.

“Little Cai, don’t worry about them; they’ll be fine soon,” said a nearby Precious Artifact Rabbit.

“Even though our rabbit clan is the weakest in the sect, we can’t let it stay like this,” said the rabbit-eared girl named Little Cai.

“If you want to calm them down, just give each of them a Water Spirit Carrot.”

“You can ask Lord Grape to exchange Water Spirit Carrots directly from the treasury. Once they eat one, they’ll be fine,” the Precious Artifact Rabbit said with a smile.

Little Cai glanced at the massive circle of Spirit Rabbits, estimating there were at least a hundred thousand of them, and quickly abandoned her idea.

“They’ve just joined the sect; they’ll get used to it soon,” Little Cai said before leaving. She thought it would be better to go make friends with the Wind Blue Rain Swallow clan, so at least someone could guide them when they needed to fly.

The engine’s sound grew louder and more urgent, and Hidden Spirit Island began to tremble slightly.

Then, the sound reached its peak, and the space around Hidden Spirit Island was suddenly torn apart, causing the island to vanish from the Extreme Void Domain.

Hidden Spirit Island reappeared above a sea of clouds, resembling a celestial city in the sky.

At that moment, everyone in the core small world of Hidden Spirit Island clutched their chests, including several respected elders.

“My heart almost jumped out of my chest just now,” Spirit Cut said, holding his chest.

The disciple beside him was in even worse shape, crouching on the ground and clutching his chest as if suffering from a heart attack.

“It feels like someone stabbed me in the chest,” Qian Bing said, his face contorted in pain as he held his chest.

“I’m fine. If it’s just a stab, it’s just a stab. It’s not like I’ll die from it,” Xiong Li said, also holding his chest, though he remained relatively calm, only slightly furrowing his brow.

Xu Fan, outside the core world, noticed the situation as well.

“Grape, what’s going on?” Xu Fan asked.

“It’s the space Force Field. The energy surge, combined with Hidden Spirit Island’s full-power propulsion, created a shockwave,” Grape explained.

“Were there any casualties?”

Xu Fan was concerned, as there were many ordinary people in the core world.

“None of the cultivators lost consciousness, but all the ordinary people fainted. We’ve sent puppets to treat them, and they’re fine now.”

“However, three Spirit Rabbits from the Spirit Rabbit Clan died of fright.”

Hearing Grape’s words, Xu Fan’s face darkened. No wonder the Spirit Rabbit Clan remained at the bottom of the beast race—they were even more fragile than ordinary humans.

“Open the core world and let them out.”

“Where are we now?”

Xu Fan looked up at the sky and immediately spotted the Extreme Void Domain in the depths of the sky. Since it was daytime, the dazzling starry river wasn’t visible.

“Calculating…”

“We’re currently in the Qianling Immortal City area,” Grape replied.

“What a coincidence!” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“It only takes half a day of sailing to reach Qianling Sect without entering the Extreme Void Domain.”

“Let’s send a message to inform them, so our entire sect doesn’t suddenly appear and cause any misunderstandings.”

As soon as Xu Fan finished speaking, a Law Form Golden Body, thousands of feet tall, appeared not far from Hidden Spirit Island.

Turning his head, he realized it was the Grand Elder of Qianling Sect.

“Greetings, Grand Elder! I was just thinking about visiting you,” Xu Fan greeted with a smile.

“I wondered who it was; it’s the Grand Elder! Welcome, welcome!” the massive Law Form Golden Body said with a laugh.

He had been meditating when he suddenly sensed an immensely powerful aura within the Qianling Immortal City area, unsure if it was friend or foe.

With a ripple of spatial fluctuations, the Grand Elder’s true form appeared directly at the main gate of Hidden Spirit Island.

In the guest hall of the main peak, a Precious Artifact Rabbit girl served tea to the two before respectfully leaving.

“I’ve heard about the things you’ve done in the demon race, Grand Elder. Truly satisfying,” the Grand Elder of Qianling Sect praised.

“With my limited strength, I could only target the weaker members of the beast race to vent my frustrations. In truth, I’m still being bullied and taking it out on others,” Xu Fan replied modestly.

“Don’t sell yourself short, Grand Elder. You’ve taken down two top powerful families! That’s at least a small blow to the overall strength of the beast race.”

“And that Purple Jade Flood Dragon is one of the strongest Invincible Beast Kings in the demon race, on par with Elder Kongming.”

“Once Elder Kongming hears about this, he’ll surely reward you,” the Grand Elder of Qianling Sect said with a smile.

“Haha, you flatter me, Grand Elder.”

“How’s your sister-in-law been? Still in seclusion at Qianling Sect?” Xu Fan asked with a grin.

“Master Youming is in a critical phase of his training in seclusion. Otherwise, he would’ve sensed your arrival and joined me to welcome you,” the Grand Elder said, his eyes betraying a hint of affection.

By now, Hidden Spirit Island was swiftly moving toward Qianling Sect.

“Grand Elder, since you’re here, why not stay a while? That Ten Thousand-Mile Giant Lake won’t be filled anytime soon.”

“Let our disciples have a good exchange,” the Grand Elder of Qianling Sect suggested with a smile.

“We’ll stay for a bit. Hidden Spirit Island could use some repairs too,” Xu Fan agreed, nodding.

During the pursuit by the Purple Jade Flood Dragon, Hidden Spirit Island had been scratched a few times. While there was no major damage, it could cause issues over time.

“That’s great to hear! Ever since our sects fully exchanged ideas a century ago, our disciples have been humbled by yours. They’ve become much more diligent in their cultivation since then.”

“The arrogance of being top sect disciples has faded, and they’ve grown more humble.”

“So, let’s have more exchanges this time. Their little tails are starting to rise again,” the Grand Elder of Qianling Sect said with a chuckle, repeating words he’d heard from third brother.

“I wouldn’t dare take all the credit. Mutual exchange benefits both sides,” Xu Fan quickly replied, wondering how he’d missed hearing about this.
