Chapter 1442 The Limitless Sect
In the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven.
It took Zhang Han and his companions a month to get to the other end of the Astral Domain.
“That’s the disadvantage of being in the territory of the Four Great Sects. There are many places where there are restrictions on flights,” Grand Master Chu said. “Otherwise, with the speed of the Thunder Snake, we would have been able to arrive in ten days.”
“It will be much better after we leave the Astral Domain,” Zhang Han said.
What Grand Master Chu meant by advancing at a high speed was flying three times faster than their current speed, but it meant flying ten times faster than their current speed to Zhang Han after they left the Astral Domain and fly in the Barren Astral Area.
But the others didn’t know that.
“If we leave the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven, we’ll encounter too many adverse environments and Starry Sky Beasts in the Barren Star Area,” Grand Master Chu said. “Big Brother, do you have any ideas?”
“Let’s go to the Flowing Astral Domain first.” Zhang Han glanced at them and said, “There is no s.p.a.ce Pa.s.sage between Astral Domains, but there are many images of the ones that have been there before. I set up a Cosmos Formation according to three hundred Star Maps. Nothing but an extremely adverse environment will stop us.”
The Cosmos Formation required a lot of things, but the most important thing was the Seven-star Sword, which had the power of the starry sky.
Without the Seven-star Sword, he wouldn’t be able to set up the formation.
At the edge of the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven, after resting for half a day, Zhang Han processed the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. In addition to the most important Cosmos Formation, there were also several defensive formations. The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was fully armed.
“We’re too fully prepared.” Grand Master Chu scratched his head when he saw this. “But do we need to do this? A normal flight will take us at most ten days or half a month. Using so many spirit treasures…”
He felt that it was a bit wasteful.
“I have to get there as soon as possible.” Zhang Han sighed softly. He looked at the distant starry sky and seemed to be talking to himself, “She is still waiting for me.”
It was just a waste of some resources, so it didn’t matter to him.
“Let’s go.”
Zhang Han and Grand Master Chu got into the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
“Daddy, are we going to set off now?” Mengmeng blinked and looked around.
She didn’t feel that their current flight was any special, which was the same as the flights in the Sea Dragon Star Area.
Mu Xue leaned back in her chair and said, “Master, do you want to have tea? I’ll make you some.”
“No, thanks.” Zhang Han shook his head and stroked Mengmeng’s head. “We’re about to set off. This flight is estimated to take us a month to reach the Flowing Astral Domain.”
While they were talking, Chu Qingyi came over from behind and said, “Master, all the energy cabins have been refilled with top-grade crystals.”
“What?”
Grand Master Chu’s eyes widened. “This, this is too wasteful, Big Brother. Using only top-grade crystals to refill the cabins is great consumption.”
A top-grade crystal stone was equivalent to 10,000 low-grade ones.
There were a total of 18 energy cabins in the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. How many crystal stones would it cost to fill all of them?
Just thinking about it made him astonished.
“Yeah. Master, aren’t energy cabins usually filled with Energy Stones? What’s the benefit of using top-grade crystal stones other than good low-grade ones?” Mu Xue asked curiously.
“Energy Stones are suitable for a normal flight while the energy circulation will be much slower during a battle. Low-grade crystals can improve the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p’s speed and motive power. While using top-grade crystals, the energy can be very strong and stable, which won’t cause a negative impact on the fuel consumption of the energy cabins. For example, if we use Energy Stones, we can advance five miles in a second while we can cover 50 miles using low-grade crystal stones and over 1,000 miles using top-grade ones. The differences between them are great. If we don’t use top-grade crystal stones, we won’t be able to reach the Flowing Astral Domain within a month.”
“What…” Grand Master Chu seemed to have realized something. “Big Brother, do you mean that we need to go to the other side of the Flowing Astral Domain?”
“That’s right.”
Zhang Han nodded.
Grand Master Chu gasped. “That’s incredible.”
The distance between the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven and the Flowing Astral Domain wasn’t too far. A normal flight between the two places would take two to three months.
However, by doing that, one would only reach the edge of the Flowing Astral Domain. It would take four to five months to reach the core of the Flowing Astral Domain, and another four to five months to get to the other side. In other words, it would normally take a year for one to reach the other side of the Flowing Astral Domain from the place where Zhang Han’s group was currently at.
And it would only take Zhang Han one month to fly there.
This was an extremely incredible speed.
All of a sudden, Grand Master was amazed by Zhang Han’s means.
“If that’s the case, it really isn’t a waste of resources,” Grand Master Chu finally said.
Swoos.h.!.+
A second later, the Thunder Snake entered the secondary s.p.a.ce and began its journey.
One day, two days… twenty days later.
“Daddy, is this how people fly in the Cultivation World? We stay in the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p all the time and then go out when we arrive at our destination,” Mengmeng asked.
“That’s what people mostly do on the way.” Zhang Han nodded. “The universe is very large. We don’t know where the edge is, and we can’t see anything else on the way. Some Star Areas are so barren that there’s nothing in them. The Human Clan only occupies a small part of the Cultivation World, so there’s nothing to see on ordinary trips.”
“Are we just going to fly around like this?” Mengmeng looked around.
“Not really. Sometimes, we’ll encounter rare Starry Sky Beasts. Not all of them are fierce. Some feed on the energy of heaven and earth and don’t want to fight. They won’t pay attention to others even if a group of people pa.s.ses by.”
“I’ll show you an example.”
Zhang Han thought for a moment and had the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p slow down. They could leave the secondary s.p.a.ce at any time while detecting some external energy.
After half an hour.
“Capture the images outside.”
Zhang Han gave the order to the system.
The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p’s speed slowed down a little.
The scene outside was shown on the screen.
In the void of the universe, an incomparably huge whirlpool of seawater was spinning rapidly in front of them, like a hurricane.
Above the whirlpool, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, great waves overflowing into the heavens.
Zhang Han said, “This is the terrible environment in the starry sky.
“If it weren’t for the spirit formation I set up in advance, we wouldn’t have been able to pa.s.s through this region. Judging from the size of the whirlpool, it will take us at least a month to make a detour.”
“Why will it take so long?” Mengmeng said, “We can reach the Flowing Astral Domain in a month. Why will it take us more than a month to leave this big whirlpool?”
Grand Master Chu said with a smile, “Young miss, you’ve got it wrong. If this were a normal flight, it would take us at least a year to get to the Flowing Astral Domain. Since we’re not taking a normal flight, we can advance very fast. What Big Brother means is that it would take one a month to avoid this kind of big whirlpool while flying in the void instead of the secondary s.p.a.ce.”
“That’s right.” Zhang Han nodded. “In fact, there are opportunities in such a large-scale adverse environment. Maybe there are some secret realms in it. If we fly in the void, we would need to observe, and it’s easy to encounter an energy storm in the secondary s.p.a.ce, which would be dangerous. We have the Seven-star Sword and the Cosmos Formation, so we can avoid the influence of this environment and travel across the secondary s.p.a.ce.”
After Zhang Han finished speaking, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p sped up a little while surrounded by the energy of the Cosmos Formation.
The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p entered the whirlpool of the sea and pa.s.sed through it.
Five days later.
“Look over there, the two clans of Starry Sky Beasts are fighting.”
The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p slowed down and caught sight of the fierce battle between the two clans.
Tens of millions of Starry Sky Beasts were engaged in fierce battles.
The scene was truly shocking.
After a few days, the energy cabins were operating at a high speed, so the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p needed adjustment.
“Take a rest for half a day. Xue, go and replenish the crystal stones in the energy cabins,” Zhang Han said.
“Okay.”
Mu Xue immediately set off to replenish the crystal stones.
There were several planets nearby. Judging from the pictures captured by the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, the scenery there was quite good.
But Zhang Han did not rest.
He walked into a room.
“Blood Source Incantation!”
Once again, he performed the seal on his palm with all his strength.
Three silky threads were in the same direction, and the fourth crimson thread was indistinct.
This thread was intermittent, which represented Zhang Mu.
“Grandpa is not close to us.
“I didn’t sense it clearly before, but now it seems that they are in the same Astral Domain.”
Zhang Han let out a sigh of relief.
After half a day.
“There is no other way.”
Zhang Han said, “It will take us about three months to arrive at the next Astral Domain.”
…
This journey was not as fast as before for Mengmeng.
Sometimes, she would be anxious. “Why haven’t we found Mummy yet? Why aren’t we there yet? She must have been waiting too long.” She was often worried and anxious, so of course, she would be upset.
In the past few months, Mengmeng would either be cultivating or staying with Zhang Han.
Grand Master Chu and the other two cultivated all day.
Time flew when they were busy.
Three months pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.
When they reached the edge of the Astral Domain, it took them another two months to cross it.
After Zhang Han sensed their surroundings, it took them two months to reach another Astral Domain. Then, they spent another month crossing the Astral Domain.
At this time, they had already spent nine months on their journey.
Zhang Han once again cast the Blood Source Incantation.
“We’re close!
“We’re very close!”
He was a little anxious and excited.
“I’m finally going to see Ma’am,” Mu Xue said.
“Let’s go now so that I can see Mummy soon.” Mengmeng couldn’t wait.
“Okay, let’s go. Our next stop will be the Strange Wind Astral Domain.”
This time, the distance they needed to travel was not very long.
Because between the two Astral Domains, there was a s.p.a.ce Pa.s.sage, which was a very safe place. There were even several planets with supplies.
It only took them twenty days to reach the Strange Wind Astral Domain.
After another ten days, they arrived at the center of the Astral Domain.
The edge of the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven was a place like the Sea Dragon Star Area.
When people talked about the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven, they usually meant its central region. Other places in the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven, such as Heavenly Dragon Star Province, would be referred to respectively.
After Zhang Han and his group arrived at the central area of the Strange Wind Astral Domain.
“Two of our guys are here.”
Zhang Han sensed the Blood Source Incantation and directly controlled the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p to head for the destination.
“Our goal is the Orloff Star.”
Everyone had a clear division of labor.
Grand Master Chu inquired about the basic information of the Astral Domain, the major forces, and so on.
Chu Qingyi and Mu Xue inquired about the situation on the Orloff Star.
Mengmeng was sitting next to them, waiting.
“The Orloff Star is the home planet of the Limitless Sect. No one is allowed to enter without the ident.i.ty of an inner-door disciple or an invitation,” Chu Qingyi said.
“That’s not correct.”
Mu Xue suddenly said, “The Limitless Sect is holding an auction that would be held every 100 years. It’s very popular. It’s free to enter their s.p.a.ce station recently, so everyone can go there to partic.i.p.ate in the auction. The Auction City is open to the public. The restriction Chu Qingyi just mentioned has been removed in the Auction City. We can’t come and go freely in other places, but we can do that in the Auction City.
“The Sect Leader of the Limitless Sect is called Fu Yangtian. He has a very high status in the Strange Wind Astral Domain. It is said that his strength is at the Last Stage of the Mastery Realm, which is the same for most of the Sect Leaders of the major sects in this Astral Domain. There are some at the Peak Stage, but there aren’t any in the Tribulation Realm. Even if there are, they have gone to other places for further development.”
The Strange Wind Astral Domain was not big, even a little small, but its overall strength was not low. Grand Master Chu’s face froze a bit.
“The situation we’re facing is not great. We will still need to count on Big Brother. s.h.i.+t, he’s not in a good state now.
“Looks like we’ll have to keep a low profile.”
