Chapter 244: The Magnificent Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect
“The assassins are likely not just one wave; we must hurry to the Spirit Sect!”
Fenggong Yuan created a wind field, allowing everyone to walk on air and move at full speed.
With the enhancement of Spiritual Law from the law realms, and since they were all in the spiritual realm, not to mention walking a thousand miles a day, even a hundred thousand miles would be a piece of cake.
One hundred thousand miles is merely fifty thousand kilometers; under the boost from the law realms, they could barely maintain a speed of five hundred meters per second, indeed completing it in just one day.
However, as they had just covered a thousand miles, a sudden sword energy shot toward them, radiating a terrifying aura that made Xiang Yan and the others shudder!
“Another great cultivator has come; who is so ruthless!”
“Xiang Ying, this talisman will help you escape. You go first. Just get within a thousand miles of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, and you’ll be safe; I’ll hold him off!” Fenggong Yuan said.
Xiang Ying was powerful; each step further meant more safety.
“Thank you.”
Yun Ye nodded and grasped the white jade talisman. In an instant, everyone’s bodies almost turned to wind, speeding away from the area.
During their departure, a great battle erupted in the law realms, the terrifying force visible from hundreds of miles away.
After traveling for a while, they landed, all injured…
“Do you know how to get there?” Yun Ye asked.
Everyone exchanged glances, all shaking their heads.
They indeed knew how to reach the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, but Yun Ye was asking which route was safe.
When they swiftly traversed using the talismans, they frequently encountered various ambushes from either the ground or the sky. If not for Yun Ye’s Spiritual Eye interfering, they likely would have been eliminated multiple times.
It was too dangerous; continuing recklessly would eventually lead to misfortune and encounter an insurmountable danger!
At this moment, Xiang Qingrou played her part; she used Spirit Law to deduce their path and then pointed in a direction. “There are some changes we can seek out; the odds are seventy to thirty.”
“Seventy percent? We have to give it a try!” Xiang Cong said.
“Seventy percent is their side; we only have thirty percent!” Xiang Qingrou retorted angrily.
“Then… perhaps we should forget it?” Xiang Cong frowned; facing a pursuer of the law realms meant certain death.
“It’s necessary to go.” Both Yun Ye and Xiang Yan said simultaneously.
Xiang Yan added, “The heir carries great fortune. We only have thirty percent, but with the heir, that makes it seventy percent or even higher! And once we try to hide, our fortune will vanish, and we will end up suffering!”
“Actually, we have no other choice; rather than blindly bumping around, it’s better to trust Qingrou.” Yun Ye nodded.
Thus, they moved toward the direction Xiang Qingrou indicated.
To their surprise, they soon saw a village.
Everyone exchanged astonished glances: “There’s a village here?”
Surrounding the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect was filled with dangers; aside from the inner sect, there was practically no space for mortals to survive.
Could it be that this village had just found a safe place?
Perhaps it was not always here but had only emerged in recent years?
“Let’s go in and take a look.”
Yun Ye felt no danger and stepped inside.
As soon as he entered, he didn’t walk far before spotting an old man chopping firewood.
Upon seeing Yun Ye and the others, the old man put down his axe and spoke, “Young ones, are you from outside?”
At this, Xiang Cong and the others showed their displeasure and were about to unleash their auras.
How could a mere mortal be so rude?
But Yun Ye had anticipated this; he waved his hand, blocking their auras and signaling everyone to step back.
“Elder, do you know anything about the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect?” Yun Ye asked.
“Of course, this is the fishing platform of Elder Qinghui, and it’s mostly Spirit Sect members who come and go here,” the old man replied.
Xiang Yan and the others began to sweat nervously.
Elder Qinghui was a powerful figure on par with Elder Qushuang. If they harmed anyone here, it could lead to great calamity!
“That’s excellent. We would like to ask for directions. How can we safely reach the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect? This bag of silver can be your reward; if you don’t need money, I can offer a few spirit pills instead,” Yun Ye offered.
“Ha ha, no need for such things! Here, no diseases exist, and weapons do not strike, so what would I want with spirit pills or money? To go to the Spirit Sect, just cross the bridges and walk the roads; places with bridges and roads don’t harbor danger,” the old man laughed heartily.
Everyone exchanged knowing glances; he had a point!
Just as they intended to inquire further, several figures rushed in from the distance, filled with murderous intent.
“Chasers, but they are only in the spiritual realm!”
“Kill them directly to avoid further hindrance!”
The group immediately entered the Spiritual Roots revival state and confronted the five pursuers.
Yun Ye realized that this time the pursuers were not the man in black robes, but armored practitioners shrouded in mist.
These armored practitioners were impressively strong, all at the Major Achievement realm, equally matched with the three from the Xiang Family. However, the Xiang trio had Xiang Qingrou, the Spiritual Law practitioner, who seized the opportunity to strike first.
Among the five, three of them shuddered and froze, quickly being overwhelmed and eliminated by Xiang Qingrou and her companions, losing three in an instant.
Originally, the five against three was already evenly matched. Now with only two left, they were quickly overwhelmed.
The old man showed no fear, only moving away from the battlefield.
After the battle, Yun Ye and the others left a few spirit pills before swiftly departing.
Following the old man’s advice, they took detours only where there were roads and bridges, and indeed, as the old man said, they encountered almost no danger along the way.
In fact, they even passed through an area that looked strikingly similar to a forbidden zone.
In this forbidden zone lay a creature larger than a mountain, breathing clouds like thunder, its power terrifying and completely surpassing that of a Great Disaster.
“Shiguai (fourth tone), a monster from a chaotic era, asleep for ten thousand years, upon awakening, it turns the surrounding area into a dead zone where all life perishes due to drained vitality.”
“If we kill it, the power will all be absorbed by the slayer; the unbearable part of that energy may even spill out and spread, making it a very terrifying monster.”
Xiang Qingrou, well-informed, recognized the origin of this mountain-sized monster.
In a chaotic era, it was a rank above the Great Disaster and could wreak havoc across a state.
The horror of Shiguai lies in its consequences for the one who strikes it down, with those lacking strength unable to bear all the backlash.
Basically, every Shiguai could cause destruction across thousands of miles, and no powerful figure would willingly sacrifice themselves.
“This Shiguai has only been asleep for four thousand years; it’s far from the ten thousand years, making it the least dangerous of chaotic monsters. We can walk past its body without issue.”
“Since we see Shiguai, it means we are not far from the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect. From here on, we needn’t be cautious. The area around the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect has been completely cleared of any monsters above the Great Disaster,” Xiang Qingrou said, noting this as a marked monster on their map.
“No monsters above the Great Disaster? Does that mean the Great Disaster still exists?” Yun Ye asked.
“Great Disaster monsters will serve as trials, so they have not been cleared. We just need to avoid them.”
The group nodded.
After all, for a super sect, the Great Disaster was merely a tool for honing extraordinary talents.
If it were Baishi Town, even with ten law realm practitioners, they would still take the Great Disaster seriously and give their all to overcome it.
“Trials…”
Yun Ye silently nodded. Although the Great Disaster might be insignificant before a super sect, in the eyes of the younger generation, it was indeed a barrier. These trials likely targeted exceptional individuals, like the peerless ones and the legendary talents.
If ordinary law practitioners were to challenge a Great Disaster, it would be a path to death.
Before long, they reached the heart of the Great Wilderness Spirit Marsh, where clouds and mist swirled, with divine beasts and Spirit Plants everywhere.
Beams of light fell from the sky, penetrating the area and connecting heaven and earth—twelve beams in total, forming the super formation of the entire Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect.
Despite the swirling mist filled with immortal energy, the view was extremely open; the mist was just spirit energy and wouldn’t obstruct their sight. Thus, upon stepping into this area, it suddenly felt as if the entire world brightened up.
It resembled a midsummer day, where the sunlight was blinding, so bright that it was unforgettable.
This was the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect.
This was the…
Heaven on Earth!
As the absolute overlord, the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect gathered countless resources from Huangzhou, occupying half of the super spirit veins.
It was no surprise that they could create such a paradise for cultivators!
Inside the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect and outside it were two utterly different worlds.
No comparison could be made between heaven and hell.
