He didn’t come.
Not because I don’t want to, but because I can’t.
The people of the Fire God Palace had planted spies in the Fallen God Desert, and the people of the Void Merchant Guild were also secretly spying on them.
If he appeared at that time, with representatives from all three major factions present, the situation would become extremely complicated, and might even trigger an uncontrollable conflict.
That was not what Master Yuxu wanted to see.
“One slash of the sword can finish off a peak level three Gold Immortal.”
Yun Yi muttered to himself, his fingers gently tracing the blade of the wooden sword, “Eighth level True God Realm, to finish off an opponent one rank higher, and that’s even with the opponent burning his life essence. This kind of combat strength”
He did not continue, but a rarely seen serious expression flashed across his eyes.
He was the most outstanding disciple of the Daoist sect in this generation, a level two Gold Immortal, and was considered one of the best young people in the Eighteen Heavens.
However, if he were to face Yan Po, he would be confident of victory, but he would absolutely be unable to kill him with a single slash of the sword.
They couldn’t possibly wipe out thirty first-rank elite Gold Immortals within ten breaths.
The boy named David had a cultivation level four levels lower than him.
Yun Yi closed his eyes, gathered his divine consciousness, and continued to wait quietly.
Master Yuxu says that he should be there for her when she needs help.
It wasn’t the right time yet, but he knew that moment wouldn’t be far away.
The impact of the battle in the Fallen God Desert would soon spread throughout the Eighteen Heavens. The Fire God Palace lost its Great Elder and thirty elites, and this grudge could not go without retribution.
The Temple of Light is also definitely keeping an eye on things.
The Void Merchant Guild’s true colors would be revealed sooner or later.
David, the young man who shocked the entire Eighteenth Heaven upon his arrival, would soon find himself being watched by many eyes.
At that time, he would need not only strength, but also allies.
Qingyun Cave Heaven is his best choice.
Outside the window, two of the three blazing suns had already set, leaving only the last silver-white moon hanging high in the sky.
Silvery moonlight shone on the black stone walls of Fire Crow City, shrouding the entire city in a cool silvery light.
In the distance, towards the Desert of the Fallen God, the dark red sand turned dark brown under the moonlight, and the scattered bones and battle relics appeared faintly in the night, like silent tombstones.
David opened his eyes in the inn.
Those purple eyes glowed in the darkness, like two burning purple flames.
He stood up from the pillow, walked to the window, and opened it.
The silvery moonlight shone on his face, highlighting his features as if carved with a knife and axe.
He stared towards the north, towards the direction marked “Northern Cold Abyss” on the map, his purple eyes reflecting the distant horizon.
There, the clouds hung low, and a faint ice-blue halo could be seen, like an aurora that had been frozen for thousands of years, flowing silently in the night.
Ice God bloodline.
He repeated those two words silently in his heart.
Within his sea of consciousness, Bei Mingyuan’s remnant soul had completely fallen silent, without a trace of movement. However, David could feel that the remnant soul was still there, but it was too weak. Every time he wakes up, he will use up the rest of his strength.
“Northern Gorge,” David said quietly. “I hope what you’re looking for is really there.”
He closed the window, leaned back against the futon, and activated the Mind Concentration Technique at full power, causing chaotic energy to rush through his meridians.
The next morning, as the first golden sun peeked over the eastern horizon, Fire Raven City awoke at dawn.
The silver moon had not yet completely set, and the red-orange sun was just peeking out from behind the clouds. The three blazing suns hung in the sky at the same time, shrouding the entire city in magnificent golden, silver, and red light.
David opened his eyes from his meditation.
After a night of training, chaotic power flowed through his meridians for a full six hours. The barrier of the eighth rank middle stage of the True Immortal Realm had shown signs of weakening, but there was still some distance to go before a breakthrough occurred.
The resources required for the power of chaos are huge. By relying solely on meditation and cultivation, it would probably take several years or even decades to break through a minor realm.
He needed more resources, more battles, and more opportunities.
And the Northern Cold Abyss may be the next opportunity.
David stood up and stretched his limbs, his bones making small cracking sounds.
He walked to the window and opened it. The cool morning breeze, carrying the hustle and bustle of the city, blew in.
There were already quite a number of monks walking around on the street, and the merchants were setting up their stalls, their shouts rising and falling.
Smoke rose from the chimneys of the three-story stone buildings in the center of the city, and the air was filled with the aroma of roasted beast meat and spirit wine.
There was a faint sound from the next room; it was Jiang Xuelan who was waking up.
A moment later, there was a knock on the door.
“Come.”
Jiang Xuelan pushed open the door and walked in. She had changed into a pure white dress, her long hair was tied back, and a silver-white long sword hung from her waist.
His face was much better than yesterday. A night’s rest had helped him recover from the exhaustion of the Fallen God Wasteland, and his eyes had returned to their usual clear and cool shine.
Let’s go.
David checked the supplies in his storage bag. He still had quite a lot of pills and enough crystals.
