Chapter 184 - Structure of the Tianxuan Continent
When the fragrance of the roasted meat entered his nose, Xiang Yun awoke from his cultivation. The Cloud Beast meat had already been cooked, but Luo He had yet to return.This time, Xiang Yun was truly worried. He arrived in front of the cave, reaching out a hand to pull down Fang Suiya.
However, what shocked Xiang Yun the most was that, in the past, Luo He would simply wave her hand and lightly place the square handkerchief in his hand.
At this moment, it was as if an iron chain had taken root within a stone wall. Despite his incredible strength, he was still stuck at the entrance of the cave.
Xiang Yun was a little anxious. Seeing that he could not pull it out, he did not care too much about it. He decided to just take out the Wandering Dragon Sword and use it to break through Fang Yubing"s Heaven"s Edge.
Now that Luo He had been gone for so long and still hadn"t returned, she must have met with danger!
Xiang Yun immediately raised his long sword. His eyes focused as he prepared to stab out!Suddenly, right at this moment, Fang Suiya"s body automatically shrank down. The next moment, a familiar figure appeared at the entrance to the cave!
"Luo He, you"re finally back! Where did you go? Why did you take so long to come back?!" The moment Xiang Yun saw Luo He, his heart dropped. However, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Luo He, who stood in front of him, actually paled slightly as a cold aura radiated from her.
"What"s the matter with you?" Xiang Yun was shocked.Luo He waved her hand at Xiang Yun and said, "It"s fine, it"s just that I haven"t fully recovered. I think I"ve flared up again!"
"What!" Xiang Yun immediately thought back to the time when Luo He"s injuries had broken out and her entire body had formed an ice sh.e.l.l.
"Hurry up and come in to treat your injuries!" Xiang Yun hurriedly pulled Luo He to let him enter the cave.
Luo He shook her head and said, "No, we have to leave now. We have to travel through the night?"
"Ah, why is that?" Xiang Yun had a puzzled expression. Since Luo He"s injuries had flared up, he should naturally immediately heal. Why was he still hurrying through the night?
"That group of people have come to find trouble with me. They will definitely search until they find this place. We must leave tonight.""What!"
Upon hearing these words, Xiang Yun immediately understood. Luo He had once said that he had taken something belonging to his family from a certain place. This group of people had definitely come to ask for it.Xiang Yun frowned in thought, saying, "Brother Luo He, since this item belongs to your family, it doesn"t make sense. Why don"t we stay and argue with them? They shouldn"t be so unreasonable, right?"
Luo He couldn"t help but bitterly smile when she heard this. "If they"re being reasonable, do I need you to run away with me? It"s extremely dangerous for these people to go to such lengths to drink blood. Let"s quickly find another hiding place!""This …" Xiang Yun thought to himself the moment he heard these words. The humans that were able to roam within the depths of the Silvermoon Forest were most likely not people like Luo He.
From Luo He"s words, the other party was definitely a group of vicious villains. It seemed that they really had to hurry on their way!Immediately, Xiang Yun rushed into the cave. He used sand and rocks to bury the bonfire, picked up the roasted Cloud Beast meat, and rushed out of the cave with his backpack on his back.
"Brother Luo He, let"s go!"
Immediately, Xiang Yun began opening a path in the direction that Luo He had indicated. It was currently late at night, and the Cloud Beasts within the Silvermoon Forest were moving at their most frequent times.
As the two travelled, they would even occasionally hear the howls of various types of distant beasts coming from different directions. Their roars were like the roar of thunder and carried a terrifying might. Clearly, these were all high level cloud beasts with powerful cultivations!
Xiang Yun became more and more careful as he made his way forward. When he occasionally turned around, he discovered that Luo He"s face had become even paler, and her body was actually on the verge of collapsing.
Xiang Yun had also noticed that the gigantic sword case that Luo He had been carrying on her back was no longer on her back.
"Brother Luo He, what happened to you?" Xiang Yun hurriedly turned to Luo He"s side and asked in a low voice.The moment he neared Luo He, Xiang Yun immediately felt a bone-piercing coldness. It was as if Luo He had already turned into a block of thousand-year-old ice.
"It"s nothing, it"s just a little cold, and my body is a little stiff. It"s okay, let"s continue on our way!"
Luo He struggled and wanted to continue walking, wanting to let Xiang Yun see that he was fine. However, this step had been too hurried, causing his center of gravity to falter as he actually fell forward.Luckily, Xiang Yun was quick to react. He grabbed Luo He by the waist and pulled her back!
"Sigh, how can you hurry like this? How about this, I"ll carry you, just give me directions!" Xiang Yun suggested.
Hearing this, Luo He shook her head, "No need, I can walk by myself, let"s continue."
The latter wanted to dodge, but with his stiff body, Xiang Yun simply had no time to dodge. Xiang Yun had already twisted his body backwards, grabbing Luo He"s legs and lifting her up, Luo He was carried on his back!"What are you doing? Put me down!" Luo He suddenly threw herself onto Xiang Yun"s back, exclaiming angrily!
As he walked, he said, "Brother Luo He, it"s impossible for you to walk right now. If we"re met with an attack by a Cloud Beast midway, you won"t even be able to hide, so don"t try to be brave. Moreover, we"re all grown men, it"s not like we"ll lose anything even if we get carried by it.""You …" Luo He was constantly struggling behind Xiang Yun"s back, but she could do nothing about it. At this moment, his cultivation was once again sealed.
Although he still had the strength of a Seven Cloud Martial pract.i.tioner, he could not break free of Xiang Yun"s arm no matter what, and was firmly pinned to his back by the latter.
After struggling for a long time, he was truly unable to break free. Luo He gave up on struggling and puffed up her cheeks in anger as she looked down at Xiang Yun."You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, how dare you be so rude to me. Once my cultivation recovers, I will definitely teach you a lesson!"
Luo He muttered in her heart. Her pale face actually had a hint of red on it. It was unknown whether it was due to anger or embarra.s.sment.
Carrying Luo He on his back, Xiang Yun continued on his way, but the path he took was not easy at all. Although Luo He was small and thin, even though they were separated by their clothes, Xiang Yun was still frostbitten by the cold energy emanating from Luo He"s body!
This sort of chilliness pierced straight to the bone. An extremely cold aura continued to burrow into Xiang Yun"s back. Despite his tough physique, the corners of his mouth were still trembling from the cold.
"Brother Wei, put me down. I"m too cold. You can"t take it." Luo He had naturally noticed the changes in Xiang Yun"s body. He could clearly sense that Xiang Yun"s body was trembling slightly.
Hearing this, Xiang Yun didn"t have any intention of letting go. Instead, he laughed and said, "It"s fine, my body"s fine, and I"ve been walking around for a long time, so I"m feeling a little hot. The cold energy from your body can cool me down, it"s very comfortable!"
Luo He gazed at the figure of that stubborn figure as he tried his best to suppress the trembling in his heart. His heart trembled slightly as a peculiar expression appeared on his face."Brother Luo He, since you"ve seen so much, it would be boring to travel at night. Why don"t you tell me about the Profound Sky Continent? I"ve never heard of any of the seven great sects or the three great demon sects."
Xiang Yun was currently enduring the frigid air behind him, his icy and numb hands tightly wrapped around Luo He"s body. In order to divert his attention, he began to chat with her."En!"
This time, Luo He just nodded and didn"t say anything else, instead starting to talk to Xiang Yun about the Profound Sky Continent.
The Profound Sky Continent was one of the Seven Stars Continent. The Seven Stars Continent was known as the Seven Continents, but in reality, it was a small world with seven neighbouring worlds. It was just connected to each other and was separated by a spatial barrier.
Tianxuan Continent had existed for hundreds of millions of years, and from the time of the savages to the time humans officially stepped onto the stage, only a short hundred thousand years had pa.s.sed.The rise of human warriors was like a comet flying in the sky. In that golden age, human warriors relied on their unique talent in cultivation and successfully defeated the divine beasts and the vicious beasts that ruled the continent. They unified the entire Seven Stars Continent, leaving behind many rules.
After hundreds of thousands of years of development, some powers had gone from strong to weak, some were unknown, and then rose to prominence. There were also those that were directly annihilated in the endless river of history, without a single trace of their existence.
And right now, in the Profound Sky Continent, the ones who were truly in charge of the cultivation world were the seven major sects and the three great demon sects!
The seven major sects are: "Heaven"s Illumination Sect", "Divine Sword Sect", "Heavenly Mystery Palace", "War G.o.d Palace", "Heavenly Dao Sect", "Star River Sword Sect", and "Misty Illusion Palace".And the evil way of the Profound Sky Continent was guarded by three super sects. They were the "Myriad Demon Sect", "Heavenly Fiend Sect", and "Evil Sovereign Hall". These three were the most evil way.
The three great devil sects, Xiang Yun, had never heard of the seven great sects that Luo He spoke of. He asked, somewhat at a loss, "Are these sects very powerful?"
Luo He laughed, "Of course it"s powerful. Aside from the War G.o.d Palace of the seven major sects and the Evil Sovereign Palace of the three major sects, the other eight sects all have a heritage of tens of thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years."
"Within these sects, there are extremely powerful sect protecting arrays, as well as limitless power cloud controlling weapons. There are also countless experts within the sect, and they are all true colossus.""Even the powerful super empires like the Great Qin, Tianhe, and Xixia have to obediently bow down and be controlled by the secular empires."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yun"s heart was somewhat shocked. A empire like the Great Qin Empire, a empire that the State of Feng Yun could not even compare to, actually had its rules drawn up and was forced to bow before it. Just how powerful were these sects?As if he had guessed what Xiang Yun was thinking, Luo He explained to him, "The power of a mundane king, no matter how many thousands or tens of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers he has under his command, is still just a mundane existence. The wealth and power he possesses on the outside is nothing."
"The Profound Sky Continent respects martial arts, and the seven great demon sects have almost all of the world"s top Cloud martial pract.i.tioners. There is no lack of experts who can move mountains and fill the seas with just a wave of their hands."
"Their power has already completely surpa.s.sed the scope of ordinary humans. To them, destroying an army of the secular world is like waving a hand to wipe away a speck of dust. Do you think the rulers of these empires would dare to say half a "no" to them?"
"Hiss!"
With a wave of his hand, he annihilated thousands of soldiers and horses, dusting them like dust. When Xiang Yun heard Luo He"s words, he couldn"t help but tremble in fear!
"Is it because there are a lot of Sky Cloud Sky Realm warriors in these big sects?" In Xiang Yun"s eyes, it was probably only a Heavenly Cloud Realm expert who possessed such terrifying strength.
Hearing Xiang Yun"s words, Luo He was slightly taken aback. A moment later, a look of understanding appeared on his face.
The latter asked with great interest, "Brother Wei, do you know any realms that martial artists can reach on their path of cultivation?"
Xiang Yun replied without hesitation, "Aren"t martial pract.i.tioners supposed to be divided into: Cloud Martial Seven, Yellow Cloud Realm, Profound Cloud Realm, Earth Cloud Realm, and Sky Cloud Realm?"
"I heard that once one reaches the Heavenly Cloud Realm, they can fly like an immortal from the heavens and earth. They can be carefree and free. They can no longer be bound by the heavens and earth."
Luo He smiled as she nodded her head before adding, "There are no limits to your studies, and there are no limits to your martial arts as well. Although the scenery in front of you is great, the scenery on the mountain is great!""Ah! Could it be that above the Sky Cloud Realm, there is still another realm?" Xiang Yun did not understand much of Luo He"s ambiguous words.
Luo He nodded her head, but smiled without uttering a word. Some matters were brought up too early, and this might not necessarily be a good thing. As long as the latter knew, this so-called end was already more than enough.
