A month of floating on that evil river actually took him three million miles. The current was awfully rapid.
This wasn’t a short distance and he couldn’t use a portal right now. His speed couldn’t easily cross through the gap.
He wasn’t in a hurry to return to Season for revenge. He found a secret place in order to fix the path to the Heavenly Kingdom first.
A towering Buddhist statue appeared before Li Qiye, still resplendent and holy like before. Unfortunately, there were cracks all over. It seemed to be on the verge of collapsing after being damaged by Yama’s evil energy.
The path by the stomach has been destroyed. Placing the silkworm scripture in the right spot didn’t open the portal.
“Some serious damage.” His hand became bright as he touched the statue to fix the broken formations.
The cracks gradually disappeared and the statue became perfect like before. He focused his energy on the stomach again.
Buddhist essences oozed out but the path still failed to open.
“The internal path is still broken? I have to fix the connection?” He frowned and murmured.
He sat down in the meditative pose and began drawing in the air with one finger. He created forty golden runes and sent them towards the stomach.
“Minor Change Art, derive forty and use thirty-seven.”
“I have understood ninety-percent of this art now and can use the numbers to pave a spatial path to the kingdom.”
He took out two Darkblue Spirit Stones for energy replenishment while using the Minor Change Art to link the spatial path. His divine intents fused with this art in order to find the entrance to the kingdom from the broken path.
This required immense spirit energy. The majority of third-level Nirvana cultivators couldn’t do so. He was relying on his previous life's experience and the magical Minor Change Art.
“Found it.” Feiyun saw the entrance amidst the chaotic expanse with gentle Buddhist lights oozing out.
He tried to connect the path with the one built by the Minor Change Art. Unfortunately, his creation crumbled so he hurriedly recalled his divine intents.
“Too many flaws since I haven’t learned the entire art, I can’t make the connection.” He pondered: “Maybe after reaching the second level.”
Of course, he had another method – inviting someone who was an expert at formations. However, he didn’t trust others since this was a high-level realm. It was far more valuable than low and intermediate-level realms.
With this over, he wanted to return to the capital of Season in order to see the current situation of the half-demon alliance.
The weapon essence could self-heal and became a drop of liquid melting into his palm.
He didn’t use his vessel. His speed alone was fast enough, especially while using Swift Samsara. Even a third-level Nirvana cultivator might not be able to catch him.
He flew among the clouds and illuminated them with a faint glow.
Suddenly, ripples came from behind along with a gust of wind hitting behind his neck.
“Spatial ripples.” He became alerted and quickly retreated.
Suddenly, space was torn open and a purple figure leaped out from inside. Next were limbs and blood.
‘A battle in a spatial channel, someone made it out.’ He thought.
Fighting within space meant that they were masters. Feiyun didn’t want to be involved and wanted to leave as fast as possible.
“Over there!” A group of white-cloaked people rushed out while holding powerful spirit treasures. Their target was the purple figure.
“You dare to ambush me?! Damn you, Firmaments!” The purple figure was shrouded in auspicious colors as well. An exquisite hand from within reached out and threw a jade bracelet.
It turned into a white halo and crushed more than ten spirit treasures.
However, the other side had the number advantage with plenty of experts. They eventually sent the purple figure flying.
“Fellow Daoist, help me kill these wretched scums, I will handsomely reward you afterward.” The purple figure used a special movement technique and flew towards Feng Feiyun.
“Sorry, I prefer not to meddle.” Feiyun used his Swift Samsara and ran with meteoric speed.
The figure was just as fast as Feiyun and followed right behind him. The group in white still attacked with different techniques.
“Liu Suzi, our young master only wants you to be a guest at Firmaments, why put in so much effort to run?” A white-haired old man unleashed a massive attack with his staff. The energy wave was a thousand miles wide.
“Boom!” Both Feiyun and the purple figure got struck and rolled among the clouds.
“You have successfully infuriated me. If I get away, it’ll be the death of you dogs and Xiao Tianyue!” The purple figure stabilized and used the jade bracelet again, successfully knocking three experts down.
“We have a perfect strategy and have fully surrounded the region. This plan has been in the works for a long time just to capture you.”
Feiyun didn’t want to get involved and directly swoop down into the ground before leaping up in another direction. Unfortunately, the purple figure was still right behind him.
“Can you not follow me?” He became annoyed since this figure was purposely dragging him down the mud.
“I’m wounded from the spatial path and can’t get away from the claws of Firmaments City. If you save me, I’ll give you 100,000 miles of land.” The figure’s voice was extremely pleasant – a girl with a delicate and charming figure, albeit still shrouded in fog.
He found the voice familiar but didn’t have time to think since pursuers were right behind him.
“Not interested.” He added more speed and rushed to another direction.
“A million miles, 100,00 slaves, 3,000 beauties.” She added and had no choice but to beg due to her serious injuries. This was unprecedented; only others begged her in the past.
Even ancestors would be tempted by the handsome reward. She thought that since he was young, he would definitely be shocked by the rewards or even kneel before her and plead loyalty.
“I’ll kill you if you keep on following me.” Unfortunately, Feiyun was losing patience.
He wasn’t interested regardless of whether she was telling the truth or not because he heard “Firmaments”. This was a power even the Meng wanted to curry favor with. The Meng nearly killed him, let alone a stronger power.
“Boom!” A destructive beam descended.
This was a mighty character attacking through space. Several thousand miles were affected. It was too late to run.
Feiyun felt the immense pressure and could sense experts from all directions. These opponents might think that he was an accomplice and try to kill him.
He stopped and gritted his teeth: “Fine, I’ll save you this time.”
He took out his dragon-phoenix leather armor and reserved it, letting the invisible cloak be the outer layer.
He put it on and disappeared from sight before pulling the girl in as well.
“Ah, what are you doing?!” Her hands pushed against his chest. She was clearly infuriated.
“Don’t move.” Feiyun hugged her tighter; her ample bowl-sized breasts were pressed against his chest. This allowed the garment to cover both of them.
“Not bad.” He clearly felt them and decided to tease her.
“You court death!”
He suddenly stopped smiling and stomped on the ground. They started sinking below. All of this happened in a split second.
The moment they went down, the beam finally struck the ground.
“Boom!” The region quaked violently. Though Feiyun was more than a hundred meters below, he still felt the power descending. Its heat turned the ground into lava.
