Chapter 515: Guests of the Heavenly Court
Leaving the sea, thousands of miles away from Mount Buzhou, Lu Heng and Xiao Ai encountered the gigantic beast Tao Wu that was waiting there.
Upon seeing the safe return of Lu Heng and Xiao Ai, Tao Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Heng exchanged a few words with it, smiling, before bidding farewell.
Regarding this, Tao Wu showed a hint of reluctance, for within the desolate and eerie world, companionship was a rarity, and boredom prevailed. Although the other three ferocious beasts would eventually regenerate, there was no camaraderie among the four major monstrous creatures. With Lu Heng and Xiao Ai departing now, Tao Wu naturally couldn't bear to part with them.
However, it was also aware that Lu Heng wouldn't stay for long, so it prepared its emotions, once again carrying Lu Heng and Xiao Ai towards the exit.
The method of entering the eerie world is known only to the four major monstrous creatures.
And leaving, naturally, follows the same course.
Tao Wu, however, was unable to depart this time.
The eerie world is isolated from the outside world, and even the four major monstrous creatures can only enter the Celestial Desolation Realm when the opportune moment arrives.
And now, evidently, there is no opportunity.
Tao Wu escorted the pair of Lu Heng to the edge of the world and, after traversing that most enigmatic and formidable level of power, returned to the eerie realm.
While Lu Heng and Xiao Ai continuously shuttled through one small world after another, eventually, with Lu Heng wielding his sword to shatter the void and break through the spatial barriers, they forcefully cleared a path and successfully entered the Celestial Desolation Realm.
When they arrived at Hanyu Mountain, at that moment, Hanyu Mountain had already restored its appearance from years past.
Nestled within an ordinary mountain range that was neither particularly treacherous nor considered a heavenly abode, there stood the Wolf God Temple, adorned with several small cottages.
The immense and towering peach tree, which once obscured the heavens, had now dispersed the barrier that kept the outside world at bay. Standing at the outskirts of Luoye City, closest to Hanyu Mountain, one could gaze into the distance and witness a pale streak of lightning travel through the sky, ultimately descending upon the distant mountains on the horizon.
In front of Hanyu Mountain, before the Wolf God Temple.
Candle Dragon, Jiu Mie, and others have already gathered, only awaiting the return of Lu Heng.
Upon the descent of the pale streak of light, Lu Heng and the others exchanged greetings and Lu Heng shared the discoveries within the enigmatic realm.
"Mount Buzhou?" Candle Dragon furrowed his brow and said, "I have never heard of such a mountain before"
Therefore, Lu Heng turned his gaze towards Lian Cangqing, who stood beside him. Lian Cangqing, the progenitor of martial immortals, was an even more ancient being than Candle Dragon.
Though the Life Deviation Technique is simple and easy to learn, anyone with basic knowledge of cultivation can acquire it. However, once the Life Deviation Technique is activated, the spiritual essence that retreats into the void requires the spiritual power preserved by the cultivator, awaiting the dawn of a new era and the revival of all things.
If one's cultivation level is low and their spiritual power is insufficient, forcefully activating the Life Deviation Technique without awaiting the dawn of a new era, once the spiritual power preserved by the practitioner is depleted, the unsupported spiritual essence will dissipate into the void, vanishing into thin air.
Therefore, every instance of the Life Deviation Technique is a high-stakes gamble, betting on whether one's preserved spiritual power is sufficient to sustain the spiritual essence until the next epoch.
With the current level of cultivation in the Celestial Desolation Realm, it is estimated that less than fifty cultivators would be able to rely on the Life Deviation Technique to survive until the next epoch.
At this moment, even the typically optimistic Lu Heng couldn't muster a smile.
He sat under the pavilion, observing his few silent friends before him, remaining silent for a prolonged period.
Outside the pavilion, Xiao Ai and Gu Yan stood respectfully, refraining from speaking out of turn.
But at a certain moment, Xiao Ai and Gu Yan, who were standing by, both paused for a moment, exchanged a glance, and finally looked towards Lu Heng in the pavilion.
"Master" Gu Yan called out as he opened his mouth.
Lu Heng glanced at him and said, "What happened?"
Lu Heng noticed the astonishment and unease in Gu Yan's eyes.
Gu Yan hurriedly said, "Master, at this moment, the Heavenly Court has been visited by a mysterious woman in red, who claims to be looking for the three of us."
After speaking, Gu Yan hastily kicked the slumbering fat bird next to him, startling the gigantic bird that was several meters tall.
Upon seeing that everyone was looking at it, the fat bird promptly widened its eyes. Subsequently, from within the giant blood-red pupils of the fat bird Fei Yi, two beams of light flew out. These beams of light converged in the void, transforming into a water mirror.
And what appeared in the water mirror was the scene in front of the heavenly door at that moment.
The fully armed heavenly soldiers and generals all wore expressions of fear, gradually retreating. In front of them, a figure of a woman in red stood with a cold and chilling countenance, exuding a menacing aura.
The appearance of that woman was astonishingly identical to Lian Cangqing's
