Eternal Life: Hundredfold Rewards-Chapter 278 - 170: Ten Thousand Miles Sky Transmission Talisman (Part 2)

Chapter 278: Chapter 170: Ten Thousand Miles Sky Transmission Talisman (Part 2)

However, the term ’Land of the Five Sects’ is not an official designation; it is merely a colloquial term passed down by the Five Core Formation Sects and other forces.

The Land of the Five Sects originally belonged to Nanhua State under the Celestial North Domain.

As one of the nineteen states of the Celestial North Domain, Nanhua State has a total of more than ten Core Formation influences and one Nascent Soul Major Sect.

The Wind Moon Sect’s five Core Formation influences within the Land of the Five Sects are among those ten or so Core Formation influences.

As for the sole Nascent Soul Major Sect of Nanhua State, it is naturally the main sect of North Magnetic Mountain, the North Magnetic Divine Palace.

Initially, Qi Chuan thought that using the Ten Thousand Miles Sky Transmission Talisman to teleport away might still be within Nanhua State and not far from the Land of the Five Sects, but unexpectedly, it directly took him out of Nanhua State.

Clearly, this was not within ten thousand miles.

"Yes, it’s Beihua State," Situ Jiang nodded and said, "Although you’ve gone to Beihua State, unfamiliar with its people and land, this might actually be safer. If you stayed within Nanhua State, with North Magnetic Mountain present, even the North Magnetic Divine Palace might not be trustworthy."

Upon hearing this, Qi Chuan also agreed. After all, North Magnetic Mountain was aware that Wind Moon Sect had obtained the Celestial Spirit Gang Qi, a rare opportunity that could increase the probability of Core Formation. It wouldn’t be unreasonable for anyone to covet it, let alone the mysterious North Magnetic Mountain.

As for the possibility of encountering danger in the unfamiliar Beihua State, Qi Chuan wasn’t overly worried.

Because honestly, staying in the Wind Moon Sect under the watchful eyes of the Celestial Soul Hall, danger wouldn’t be any less.

From this point, Qi Chuan no longer harbored any doubts about leaving. He simply cupped his hands solemnly and respectfully towards Situ Jiang and said, "Thank you, Master, for your concern. This disciple accepts leaving."

Situ Jiang waved his hand and said, "Since that’s the case, the sooner the better. Go back to your cave mansion, pack up, and leave by tomorrow."

Qi Chuan nodded, turned around, and left. He exited the Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion and island, returning to his own Tier Two Middle Grade Cave Mansion located in the remote part of the Inner Sect.

He then began to pack his belongings.

There wasn’t much to pack anyway.

Some items in the cave mansion were already there, and Qi Chuan didn’t intend to take them. He left them behind. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Most things could fit into the Qiankun Bag. Qi Chuan didn’t lack Qiankun Bags now, and with not much to take, everything could fit.

It was just a bit troublesome with some unripe Spirit Herbs and Plants in the cave mansion, and he could only give them up.

Fortunately, there weren’t any rare types of Spirit Plants, just some common ones.

Speaking of which, Qi Chuan once thought of growing Spirit Herbs to earn Spirit Stones, but later, due to other sources, he was not short of Spirit Stones. Growing Spirit Herbs became more of a pastime in his cultivation breaks.

After packing, that night Qi Chuan didn’t cultivate. He lay down on his usual bed and had a restful sleep.

The next morning, as the sun rose, its rays stretched across the distant sky, casting a magnificent view over Wind Moon Lake and the surrounding mountains.

Whoosh!

An escape light streaked over Wind Moon Lake, crossing many Elder and True Inheritance Islands, finally descending gently above the Sect Leader’s Island near Moon Shadow Mountain.

On Sect Leader’s Island, outside the Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion, the escape light descended. The light faded, revealing Qi Chuan’s figure.

This time, he didn’t use the Illusion Body Talisman or the Concealing Breath Talisman. For the first time in a while, he showed his true appearance, exuding an eye-catching Foundation Establishment Late Stage Spiritual Pressure. His fair and handsome face bore calm, distinct black and white eyes full of spirit.

But even so, when Qi Chuan flew over Wind Moon Lake with his actual face, no one seemed to notice anything unusual, possibly because he had been out of the public eye for too long. Many disciples thought he was just another sect elder, respectfully bowing their heads.

After waiting a moment outside the Sect Leader’s Cave Mansion, the array slowly opened. The great door opened, and Situ Jiang walked out slowly.

Upon emerging, seeing the handsome and charismatic Qi Chuan, even Situ Jiang couldn’t help but nod slightly, an expression of gratification in his eyes.

"Even if you haven’t broken through to the Core Formation True Master realm, you are indeed an absolute powerhouse," Situ Jiang said with a smile.

"How can one be called a powerhouse if one faces crisis within the sect but can only leave to hide?" Qi Chuan, however, shook his head and said.

Hearing Qi Chuan’s words, the satisfaction in Situ Jiang’s eyes became even more pronounced. In his eyes, Qi Chuan had excellent cultivation immortality talent, a far-sighted perspective, a calm and steady heart, and advanced swiftly yet steadily on the path of cultivation. A true prodigy indeed.

However, he did not know that Qi Chuan’s confidence and composure were merely due to the Hundredfold Critical Strike.

Without the Hundredfold Critical Strike, Qi Chuan might have barely reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, becoming one of the many Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators in Wind Moon Sect and various cultivation clans, enjoying a lifespan of two hundred and fifty to sixty years, feeling exceptionally satisfied.

Or, the greatest possibility was spending his life in the Early and Middle Stage Qi Refining, being an ordinary Low Level Qi Refining Cultivator, making the most of his life as best as he could, reaching his very limits.

"Since you’re ready, let’s head to the teleportation array now," Situ Jiang said to Qi Chuan.

"Alright," Qi Chuan nodded.

Immediately, under Situ Jiang’s lead, they became escape lights and flew away, not leaving Wind Moon Lake but landing on an inconspicuous island above Wind Moon Lake.

They landed on the island. Looking around at the somewhat desolate scenes, Situ Jiang said to Qi Chuan, "This is an idle island. It hasn’t been turned into a True Inheritance Island or Elder Island, and no Cave Mansion has been built. However, its Spirit Vein is not weak. The Spirit Vein beneath this island is at least at the level of Tier Two Top Grade."

"Yes, I can feel it too."

Qi Chuan nodded, reached out and grabbed the air, and a few strands of Spiritual Qi appeared in his palm, then vanished with a gentle rub.

This level of Spiritual Qi concentration was quite excellent. Ordinary Tier Two Spirit Veins couldn’t compare, though the Spiritual Qi was a bit mixed, inconvenient for cultivation. But for constructing a teleportation array, it was indeed a most suitable place.

"Follow me," Situ Jiang said to Qi Chuan, then walked forward on the island without a backward glance.

Qi Chuan followed closely. Soon, they arrived beneath a small hill, entering a cave at the hill’s base, stepping into the hill’s interior.

Once inside, the view opened up; it was a hollowed-out mountain interior, brightly lit. The surrounding mountain walls were smooth and embedded with numerous light stones.

The ground beneath the mountain was unremarkable but was covered in cyan jade, shining resplendently.

At the center of the cyan jade-covered ground stood a massive high platform, atop which was a Tier Two Top Grade Teleportation Array. Around the platform were array flags inserted everywhere, with many spirit stones laid around, and in the air above, array patterns appeared, exuding intense spatial fluctuations and aura.

"This is the Tier Two Top Grade Teleportation Array you’re going to use this time. Actually, several years ago, I secretly had it set up. After using the Ten Thousand Miles Sky Transmission Talisman this time, this array will self-destruct due to its usage,"

Situ Jiang pointed towards the array on the high platform and said to Qi Chuan.

Qi Chuan also looked at the array atop the high platform, sighing. A Tier Two Top Grade Teleportation Array, used once and then destroyed; such expenditure was undoubtedly tremendous.
