Talisman Reincarnation - All My Clones Are Dao Ancestors-Chapter 175: Kind Eel’s help

Fu Xian’s escape continued but he soon realised that even with everything he did, the fortune continued to decrease.

Such a beast was truly unworthy of its cultivation, having such a low intelligence.

He had done so much, clearly just to slow down the enemy and give it time to cool its head off.

And yet it refused his kindness!

He looked ruthlessly behind, but knew that even if he did everything, shaking it off was too difficult.

His own fortune was also decreasing continuously –

30% for the potion, 30% for the enlightenment... and it was about to reach 5% because of the fourth stage beast targeting him.

It didn’t even attack yet, but the delay through his fortune already cost him 5% - giving him effectively nothing in return!

Well, his life was on the table...

He had already done everything and further methods would be more harmful that good.

Calming down, he didn’t waste anything else.

Time passed and soon, the fall of fortune became faster.

The beast probably passed by the snow area, but Fu Xian had moved away for quite some time at this point.

When he finally pierced through an invisible veil, he could see that the lightening aura around was a lot less.

Just then, he saw something in front of him –

It quickly approached and its figure was revealed, "Fake Eel!"

"Kind eel!"

The two eels looked at each other.

"Why am I a fake eel? I’m a real eel, as real as you!"

"Why am I kind? I’m ruthless and ferocious!"

The two eels questioned each other.

Chuckling, Fu Xian asked, "Why are you still here?"

"I wanted to see if you could flee!"

"Well I did leave the territory, but this wild beast is hunting me down. Such a nuisance!"

"It’s still hunting you?!" the eel looked at him astonished, "And you were able to escape its territory?!"

"Yes. You should leave, staying with me will drag you into this difficult situation."

"No, no, you should come with me! Hold my tail!" the eel instantly walked to his side, pointing its tail at Fu Xian.

"Hmm? Are you sure? The shark is quite fast."

"Hold on!" the eel said again.

Fu Xian thought about it for only a moment before he complied.

Holding the eel’s tail, he could instantly feel a stream of thunder surround his body, forming a thin veil.

Right away, he saw the eel moving forward with an extremely fast speed!

Five, ten, a hundred... in just a few moments, it crossed several kilometres, leaving behind a long streak!

Fu Xian’s body barely held on because of the thunder veil.

When he looked back, he saw that they had left the thunder territory a lot.

Now that he looked at it, he realised how large this territory was.

Although after such a long time, he had known about the huge size of the cultivation world, but only with gradually exploration would one understand how real this size was.

A kingdom could span billions of metres, an empire even more...

Even just the Tingle Kingdom was extremely large, probably several times that of earth.

In such circumstances, why did it seem like everything was close by?

In fact, even Qi Refining cultivators were basically as fast as a bicycle in his past life when they run, and using escape techniques, they can be even faster for a short time.

Comparably, Foundation Building cultivators were as fast as cars just by running, and could double or triple their speed with tools.

A car could drive across earth in just two weeks, considering this, it can be seen that if the world wasn’t so large, then cultivators, starting from the third stage, could basically be everywhere on the world.

Even crossing the huge ice area Fu Xian created would only take around five years for a Foundation Building cultivator.

Was this long?

Of course it was!

Even for him, without any use of special spells or talismans, it would delay him for a few months!

And this shark... it probably directly penetrated it, but even then, the stretch it crossed must have been huge.

Still, it was able to do it in just a few minutes.

The speed of cultivators rose exponentially – the Tingle Kingdom was comparably small when looking at the surrounding countries, and even then, it could house sixth-stage cultivators.

In that case, if the kingdom was so small that a sixth-stage cultivator could cross it in a day... then it wouldn’t be a kingdom but a small backyard of the cultivator.

Various things allowed Fu Xian to calculate the huge size of the world.

He guessed that if he flew on a straight line from the east to the west of the world, he wouldn’t be able to achieve the journey before the end of his lifespan.

Not to mention the obstructions...

’The trap of the teleportation formation is real, but the ease of teleportation isn’t any less real... alas, the world is simply too large!’

Naturally it also delighted him.

At least if the world was large, he wouldn’t worry about randomly encountering enemies just by walking around a bit.

Hours passed by when he felt his own fortune wasn’t decreasing any longer.

Looking around, he saw that he was at a relatively high water level, about to leave the dark area.

He asked the eel, "Are you sure you can move so far up? Didn’t you say this area is in the ownership of the sects?"

"Ownership? No, they’re allowed to practice here, no one said anything about ownership.

Anyways, they’re forbidden from attacking me and I’m forbidden from attacking them.

Only Wild Beasts can be attacked freely.

If that shark still follows us, then escape into the light area.

In just a few minutes, there will be many hunters coming out to attack him!"

"No, he already gave up.

Tell me, what do you want for you help?" Fu Xian wanted to thank the person, but he saw that the eel didn’t seem to care, so he wanted to compensate him instead.

"Want? Nothing! You gave me the spells, which is a bit of a taboo for you humans.

Although we Spirit Beasts are different, just getting this information will allow me to comprehend them and create beast spells. This is a huge benefit!

Just consider my help as me going out and guiding you around my Thunder Lake – there is no need to think too much."

Fu Xian looked at him, his eyes deep.

He nodded and bid farewell, entering the light area.

This favour... he would find a way to pay it back.
