"But heart, I promise you, as long as we seal the Yellow Springs Demon Lord, we will immediately return, and then we will never be separated for the rest of our lives."

Mu Cheng's tone was firm.

"Mu Cheng, promise me that you will return alive. No matter how long you wait, I will definitely wait for you to return. This is my dad's peace talisman, I'll give it to you."

"Mm, let's go." Mu Cheng nodded indifferently.

However, Mu Cheng did not even look at him, because he knew that the more he looked, the less courage he had to leave. Only by not looking would he be able to avoid thinking about it, and only then would he be able to calm his heart down and make the decision to leave.

"Let's go." Zhan Xingchen walked forward.

A crack suddenly appeared in the space in front of him, and then a tunnel like space appeared.

"Alright, let's go. We don't have time. This time, the spatial passageway can only be maintained for ten minutes. We have to hurry."

Zhan Xingchen glanced at Mu Cheng. He was afraid that Mu Cheng would change his mind, so he urged him.

"Mm, I know. Let's go." Mu Cheng followed behind Zhan Xingchen and slowly walked in.

In the instant he walked over, Mu Cheng felt a chill down his spine and couldn't help but frown.

Don't worry, this is normal. This passage is connected to the node of the Eastern Wastelands, and it is opened using a great amount of mana, and this passage is filled with the power of the Eternal Space. This power repels the power of forcefully tearing space, and once we come in, this power will reject us. Zhan Xingchen laughed, as if he had seen through Mu Cheng's thoughts.

"Oh, then let's go." Mu Cheng felt a little uncomfortable and quickly got used to it.

Possessing the Mysterious Heaven Jade, he was able to regulate all kinds of changes in spirit energy, including this kind of ice-cold space spirit energy.

After confirming that everyone had entered, Zhan Xingchen poured out a burst of Fa Li and surrounded everyone inside.

"Let's go." Zhan Xingchen shouted.

They quickly disappeared into the entrance, and the entire space closed again, allowing the void to return to normal.

In another space after they left, a figure appeared. Surprisingly, this figure was Dong Yinxie.

"Hehe, Mu Cheng, when I return to the Eastern Wastelands, you will be dead."

Dong Yinxie revealed a cruel smile on his face, and then, it quickly disappeared from the spot.

A surge of spatial energy surrounded Dong Yinxie as he was also in the process of teleporting between dimensions.

The Spiritual Energy here was too abundant. If Hua Xia was a baby, then the Eastern Wasteland would be a strong youth with a lot of power. And this power would be the Spiritual Energy floating in front of him.

"Mu Cheng, welcome. This is the Eastern Wastelands, and we are in the Southern Region of the Eastern Wastelands." Zhan Xingchen was in a very good mood.

Leaving Eastern plane was like leaving home. Now that he was back, he felt that everything was so familiar.

There was no need to worry about the consumption of spiritual energy, because there was a large amount of spiritual energy here which was more than enough for him to use.

"This is the Southern Domain?" Mu Cheng could not believe it, because what he saw were vast forests and plains.

Mu Cheng spread out his Spiritual Sense. In his perception, even the entire China wasn't as big as this small place.

This was because Mu Cheng was unable to sense any humans here. There were only mountains and all sorts of wild beasts. It was as though this place was a primitive forest.

"Alright, Mu Cheng, let's head to the blood pool. I believe most of the Sect Leaders are there now." Zhan Xingchen suggested.

Mu Cheng felt as if he had arrived at a new world, and everything felt fresh to him. Very quickly, he threw away all his unhappiness and entered a state of extreme excitement.

"Alright, I believe Master Xuan Luo is already there." Zi Ling replied indifferently. Clearly, she agreed to head to the blood pool.

"You go ahead, I'll make a trip back to Zongtian Sect first." Song Weiyi said indifferently.

After he returned to the Eastern Wastelands, he became even more gloomy. Along the way, he treated everyone as if they owed him money.

"Song Weiyi, are you alright? There's quite a distance between you and me on this journey, it might not be safe for you alone to travel."

"It's better if you come with us to the blood pool. This way, we can take care of each other."

Zhan Xingchen advised them to go with him and he brought everyone back as well.

Although Feng Baiyu's death was due to the destruction of a fellow sect member, in the end, it still did not feel good in Zhan Xingchen's heart.

"Senior-apprentice Brother Zhan, thank you for your good intentions. Nothing will happen to you at such a distance. You can go. I want to go back to the sect for closed door cultivation."

Song Weiyi said seriously. After he finished speaking, he flew in one direction without looking back, and didn't even wait for Zhan Xingchen's reply.

"Let's go." Seeing Song Weiyi disappear, Zhan Xingchen felt very helpless, and laughed bitterly.

Mu Cheng felt great about Song Weiyi's departure, because he really couldn't stand Song Weiyi's gloomy expression.

Furthermore, Mu Cheng seemed to be prejudiced against him. That cold gaze would sweep over his body from time to time, making Mu Cheng feel uneasy.

"Senior Zhan, is there something wrong with Song Weiyi?" Zi Ling was a little worried.

"It should be fine, this place isn't far from Zongtian Sect. Furthermore, there aren't any Demonic Beasts or cultivators on the road, I think Song Weiyi should be able to safely return to the sect. Let's go." Zhan Xingchen looked at the sky and made his decision.

Under Zhan Xingchen's lead, Mu Cheng followed closely behind, and along the way, Mu Cheng constantly spread out his divine sense, observing the surrounding situation.

At the same time, Mu Cheng's right hand was emitting waves of warmth, which was the cry of the Mysterious Heaven Jade.

The spiritual energy here made it feel satisfied, and it didn't need much effort to absorb the spiritual energy in the air.

"What is Zi Ling? "Why is it so big?" Mu Cheng sensed a colossus that looked like a giant elephant.

"Hehe, that's a mammoth. Right now, it's only a spirit rank beast."

Zi Ling laughed, this was not the first time Mu Chengji had asked this question.

"This guy is so big, but he's actually a spirit rank demon beast."

After Zi Ling's explanation, Mu Cheng gained a certain level of understanding towards demon beasts.

The so-called demonic beasts were divided into ordinary grade, spirit grade, profound grade, earth grade, saint grade, Ancient demon beasts, and Archaic demon beasts.

Each of the realms was divided into five levels, just like the cultivator they were. Each realm was also divided into five stages.

Mu Cheng also knew that the Whistling Sky Wolf was a peak Earth rank beast and he was just a step away from entering the ranks of the Sacred rank demon beast. Then, he would truly be able to call the wind and summon the rain, covering the sky with one hand, and practically no one in the world would be his match.

"Don't think that it's big. Strictly speaking, the smaller it is, the higher its level will be."

"However, when this mammoth is trained to the end, it will become an Earth rank treasure. It will not surpass the Earth rank treasure unless there is a mutation or a fortuitous encounter."

Zi Ling replied with a smile.

"So there is such a saying. However, why is Earth rank as its peak?"

Mu Cheng looked at Zi Ling, who was beside him, with a puzzled expression.

"Alright, we're almost at the blood pool. Everyone, get down. Sword riding is not allowed near the blood pool."

Zhan Xingchen's voice transmitted over. He took the lead to descend, and Mu Cheng tactfully followed closely behind Zhan Xingchen.

"That's because the giant elephant's bloodline limits it. Unless one mammoth can break through Earth rank, then the entire mammoth race can rush to a higher level." Zi Ling's voice came from behind Mu Cheng.

Mu Cheng turned around and glanced at Zi Ling. This was the first time he had heard the word "bloodline".

Mu Cheng glanced down and saw a huge blood pool below. The ones standing were all powerful individuals.

Mu Cheng stood behind Zhan Xingchen and silently observed the surrounding layout.

"Master, this disciple was lucky enough to fail in his mission and brought Mu Cheng back." Zhan Xingchen bowed towards an old man.

The old man had a white beard and looked at Zhan Xingchen with a smile. He shifted his attention behind Zhan Xingchen and Mu Cheng also knew that he needed to stand out at this time.

"I am Mu Cheng. I pay my respects to the seniors of the Sect Leader."

Mu Cheng said in a neither humble nor haughty manner, before cupping his hands and bowing in front of him. He then smiled at the other.

"Mu Cheng, are you interested in joining our Dao Sect?"

The old man who spoke to Zhan Xingchen looked at Mu Cheng from head to toe, and the smile on his face grew even wider.

This was a blatant swindle, and the other seven people looked down on this old man in their hearts.

However, their hearts had also become lively, because having Mysterious Heaven Jade s was an indisputable fact.

If they were to fight for it, it would likely result in a significant increase in the strength of the sects.

"Hey, the sect is serious, this is your fault. In any case, this Mu Cheng shouldn't have come to your Dao Sect."

"That place of yours isn't suitable for him. I think that Mu Cheng's steps are light and agile, and is very suitable for our Agility Academy."

Another Sect Leader said unhappily.

"Come on, it's not suitable. You know my ass. With your lousy pace, don't you think our Dao Sect has it too?"

Zong said in disdain.

"You …" The Sect Leader of the Agility Academy pointed at the old man from the Dao Sect and questioned him loudly.

However, he didn't say it out loud because it was already an indisputable fact.

Their Agility Academy only relied on steps, and in this cultivator's world, their steps were practically useless. Perhaps it was just running for their lives that was of some use.
