Chapter 192 - Far East
"Asura World…"
Qin Jue was stunned. Then he remembered the Spirit Clan. Was it the same Asura World he knew about?
After all, Qin Jue had learned from the memories of the Spirit Clan"s First Elder that due to the scarcity of cultivation resources, the inhabitants of the Asura World had no choice but to rely on invading other worlds and plundering more resources to strengthen themselves. Moreover, such a situation had already persisted for more than ten thousand years.
In that case, the Asura World should still be around and was yet to be destroyed.
However, why had they not made an attempt to head to the Spirit Central World in the past thousands of years?
Given the Spirit Central World"s surface-level strength and abundance of resources, it should have been their primary target.
Since the Asura World could forcefully tear open a spatial rift in the Profound Mysteries Realm, why had they not done the same and invaded the Spirit Central World for the past thousands of years?
What exactly happened during this period?
Qin Jue was puzzled.
"What is it?"
Seeing Qin Jue frowning in thought, Su Li asked.
"Nothing."
Qin Jue regained his senses and shook his head. "Can I go with you?"
"Huh?"
Su Li thought that she had misheard. "Where?"
"To the frontlines."
"No, you"re a boy. How can you go to a place like that? It"s too dangerous."
Su Li"s expression changed as she refused.
Qin Jue :"…"
"Since you"re unwilling to bring me along, I"ll just have to go there myself."
With that said, Qin Jue lightly stomped his foot and turned into a stream of light that flew towards the horizon.
"Hey, wait. Fine, I"ll agree."
Su Li panicked and hurriedly chased after him. "You boys are so troublesome."
Qin Jue :"…"
For some reason, he suddenly wanted to punch Su Li.
"Come with me, but you have to remember that you can"t run around casually. A beautiful boy like you will easily be targeted by some bad people."
Su Li"s expression was solemn as she attempted to intimidate Qin Jue.
Hearing this, Qin Jue couldn"t help but roll his eyes. If he had known this would happen, he would have gone alone. It would have saved him so much trouble.
But no matter what, Su Li could be considered to be his "savior". He couldn"t just leave without saying goodbye. Therefore, under Su Li"s lead, the two of them quickly left this area and headed towards the Far East.
Because Su Li was only at the Supreme Stage, their speed couldn"t be considered fast. Moreover, because Su Li was worried that Qin Jue wouldn"t be able to keep up, she deliberately slowed down, so it wasn"t until evening that the two of them flew more than a thousand kilometers.
"There"s a town up ahead. Let"s rest there for the night." Su Li yawned and said lazily.
It was hard to imagine that this was a Supreme Stage expert, but in a way, Su Li"s personality was actually very similar to Qin Jue"s.
The difference was that Su Li liked to interfere when she saw injustice. Compared to Qin Jue, she was much more friendly.
As soon as they entered the town, the two of them attracted many curious gazes. After all, they were both peerless beauties. No matter where they went, they would still be dazzling existences.
Hu!
Su Li did not hesitate to spread out her spirit energy. The aura that belonged to a Supreme Stage expert immediately made some fellows with ill intentions shrink back and quietly retreat.
In such a place, Supreme Stage experts were invincible existences, so why would anyone dare to jump out and court death?
"Boss, are there any more rooms here?" Su Li walked into an inn and asked loudly.
"Yes, yes, yes."
The boss was a charming woman. After seeing Qin Jue and Su Li, she raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully, "But there"s only one room left. Do you still want it?"
Glancing at Qin Jue, Su Li said indifferently, "Yes."
"Alright."
Entering the room, Su Li first looked around before saying seriously, "I want to cultivate tonight. You can sleep by yourself."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Li didn"t waste her breath any longer. Her eyes narrowed as she directly sat cross-legged and entered a cultivation state.
Qin Jue didn"t know whether to laugh or to cry. How could he not tell that the reason why Su Li stopped to rest was because she was worried that he would be exhausted?
At this rate, it would take them at least half a month to reach the frontlines.
It could only be said that Su Li had greatly underestimated him. If one didn"t know better, they would probably think that he played the role of the woman between the two of them. Wait… that was the norm of this world, after all.
Sighing, Qin Jue slowly laid down. He had to think of a way to travel faster tomorrow no matter what.
The next morning, before dawn, Su Li woke up from her cultivation and looked at Qin Jue, who was sleeping soundly on the bed. Su Li was slightly absent-minded.
Although he was sleeping, Qin Jue"s temperament was still impossible to hide. His face was especially charming and it could be said to be beautiful from any angle. Even Su Li couldn"t help but be intoxicated by it.
Therefore, Su Li subconsciously stood up and walked towards Qin Jue.
At this moment, Qin Jue suddenly opened his eyes and happened to see Su Li"s outstretched finger. Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward for a moment.
"Uh… don"t misunderstand. I just wanted to make sure you"re covered by the blanket."
Su Li hurriedly retracted her arm and forced a smile.
"…"
Qin Jue didn"t speak and directly got up. "Let"s go."
"Huh? Ohhh."
Su Li was stunned and nodded repeatedly.
In the next few days, the two of them continued to advance towards the Far East. Perhaps even Su Li did not notice it, but their speed was constantly increasing. They had gone from traveling 10,000 kilometers on the first day to now traveling 100,000 kilometers in a day.
Three days later, the two of them finally arrived in the Far East.
This was naturally because Qin Jue had used some special method. It was just that Su Li couldn"t detect it.
Otherwise, with Su Li"s cultivation, even if she flew at full speed, it would take at least ten days for her to reach the Far East.
The so-called Far East was actually a chaotic area close to the edge of the continent. Because the spirit qi was rather mixed, the environment here was very harsh.
In the past, when many cultivators had nowhere else to go after offending powerful factions, they would choose to flee here to hide. It could be said all kinds of people and experts were mixed together here. As time pa.s.sed, these people gathered together and started to form many cities and factions.
However, with the invasion of the demon race from another world, these cities and factions had long been destroyed, leaving behind countless ruins.
Before they even approached, they could already sense the nearby smell of blood and the violent spirit energy flowing in the air. Clearly, war was a frequent occurrence here.
"Is this the Far East?"
Qin Jue raised his eyes and looked over. He discovered that a storm had gathered at the end of his field of vision, and some lightning that was wreaking havoc. It was as if he was looking at the end of the world, and it was especially sinister and terrifying.
This was the case for every region close to the edge of the continent. Some cultivators with low cultivation levels would even be swept into the void and die if they were careless. This was also why those large factions were usually unwilling to settle here.
"Yeah."
Su Li nodded, slightly puzzled. "Strange, how did we get here so fast?"
Up until now, Su Li still didn"t understand how they could arrive at the Far East so quickly with the speed they were traveling at. She found it to be inconceivable.
"Forget it. I"m done thinking about it."
After thinking for a long time, Su Li could not figure it out. In the end, she simply chose to give up. She then took out a jade tablet and inserted her spirit energy to activate it. A white light immediately rushed out and pointed into the distance.
That was the location of the camp set up by the Profound Mysteries Realm to resist the Asura World experts.
