Chapter 209: Chapter 192: The Soul Lamp Is Finally Extinguished! (Double Length)

"Whoosh!"

The world is vast and desolate, the mountains like dragons.

Within an expansive, boundless mountain range, a peculiar demon beast as large as a cloud cover, with four wings like eagle claws and silver feathers on its back, is soaring through the sky.

The area within a thousand-mile radius seems to be its territory.

Its eyes are as sharp as lightning, gazing down at the vast mountains below, seemingly choosing which beast to make its lunch for the day.

Suddenly, three black dots appear in its line of sight.

Those three black dots, skimming over the ancient forest, are carefully flying three feet above the ground.

"Screech!"

New "food" in the territory?

Fierceness appears in its eyes. It dives down swiftly, charging towards those three black dots.

Black light emerges on its sharp claws, enough to crush refined steel.

"A demon beast is coming!"

At the moment of its dive, a delicate shout comes from the three black dots below.

"Do not use mana, right ahead lies the territory of the ’Profound Jade Carving,’ which is a Tier Three Great Demon. If we draw its attention, trouble may arise!"

"What should we do then?"

"Don’t panic!"

A steady voice comes from within the forest.

"Screech!"

Already near, the sound of breaking stone approaches, and the gigantic eagle claws are enough to crush the skulls of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

This Eagle Demon, though lacking spiritual wisdom, is indeed in the Earth Demon Realm, its demon qi billowing like clouds, exceedingly formidable.

"Bang!"

But just as the eagle claws are about to strike the three individuals, a pair of icy blue hands suddenly rise, grabbing the Eagle Demon’s neck.

The force in those hands is terrifyingly strong, and the Earth Demon Realm Eagle Demon is like a chick, tightly clutched and unable to make a sound.

"Bang!"

The Eagle Demon struggles incessantly, yet those hands seem cast from bronze and iron, unmoving, dragging the Eagle Demon slowly eastward.

Half an incense stick later.

A clear, large lake appears before the three.

The lake water is clear and still, like a blue mirror embedded in the vast forest.

Occasionally, silverfish leap out, creating ripples, adding vitality to the lake and forest.

"Yunyang Lake!"

"Finally arrived, once past this lake, we’re truly out of the Scorpio Mountain Range!"

Gu Yuan looks at the distance-clear lake surface, unable to help but sigh.

Then, with a sudden clutch of his five fingers, he directly crushes the Eagle Demon in his hand to death and then puts the corpse into a Storage Bag.

"A month at last, and we’ve finally made it out!"

Cen Qingqing looks at the desolate mountain range behind, resembling a gigantic scorpion, and can’t help but sigh as well.

The Scorpio Mountain Range is not a safe place, filled with demon beasts, it’s a forbidden region for the Human Race.

Especially where spirit meridians are abundant, the multitude of demon beasts can easily cause a Beast Tide, overwhelming enough to kill any Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Even with their combined strength, they’ve encountered several dangerous situations, thrillingly perilous.

Crucially, there is the existence of Great Demons in this mountain range. If these beings are provoked, death is certain for the three.

Fortunately, the dangers passed without incident.

"Once past Yunyang Lake, another thousand miles, and we’ll reach Ten Thousand Laws City!"

Gu Yuan looks at the map purchased at the Thunder Crossing Dharma Boat, calculates the terrain, and reveals a hint of relaxation in his eyes.

But this is not the time to relax entirely.

Putting down the map, he turns to Cen Qingqing and asks, "Qingqing, how much longer until the teleportation array is usable?"

Dao Origin Sect is a Tier Four Sect on the Western Sea Continent, the presence of a Daoist Embryo within the sect makes it powerful and deeply rooted.

But a teleportation array capable of crossing great domains is not a trivial object, it cannot open daily, each activation requires immense energy.

Moreover, there wouldn’t be so many cultivators, with nothing to do but teleport to other domains.

The primary purpose of Dao Origin Sect’s teleportation array is cross-domain trade, exchanging resources.

The sect built its wealth through the "Sect Trading Team," gradually thriving.

Therefore, every ten years, the teleportation array is inevitably activated once, sending the sect’s trade team to the Four Domains.

Additionally, if there are numerous reservations for the teleportation array, or during special occasions, its activation frequency may increase.

The Awakening Year in the Ten Thousand Islands Sea is one such special occasion.

The dissipating thunderstorm occurring every fifty years enables large numbers of cultivators to rush out from the Ten Thousand Islands Sea, with many aiming specifically to teleport to other domains.

Thus, Ten Thousand Laws City will provide two additional teleportation opportunities post-Awakening Year.

Gu Yuan is rushing anxiously to catch the first opportunity.

Delays lead to changes, and the time left is limited.

Cen Qingqing glances at the sky, counts the days, and replies, "Barring unforeseen circumstances, the next teleportation is tomorrow."

"Our detour through the Scorpio Mountain Range took considerable time, other cultivators from the Ten Thousand Islands Sea should have arrived long ago."

Gu Yuan also looks at the sky and says, "Tomorrow then? We should make it!"

"Time-wise, we should be on time, but the quota for the teleportation array might not be available."

Cen Qingqing shows a bitter smile.

Such a grand teleportation array naturally wouldn’t wait for clients temporarily but requires advance reservation.

Only when the quota is full will the teleportation array be activated.

"Everything will work out when the time comes, about the quota, we’ll deal with it in Ten Thousand Laws City, there’ll surely be a way!"

At this point, they can only take it one step at a time.

At worst, seize by force, they absolutely cannot linger in this place.

If unable to secure a quota, they will flee immediately.
