The sixth level of Nirvana was rather rare. Even during the strongest generation, each territory wouldn’t produce more than ten sixth-level geniuses.
Many tried until their very last breath and still couldn’t reach it, unlike Feiyun.
He got out of the lair then turned around and kneeled for three full bows. His eyes were serious since he could tell that his mother came out of this egg.
By this point, he considered both Feng Feiyun to be him. [1]
He then gathered both the meteor and the lair into the heavenly kingdom, considering them as heirlooms from his mother.
Once the meteorite was taken to the kingdom, the pressure on the city weakened. It became similar to other cities, no longer as monstrous as before.
The four masters fighting in the void also stopped. The man wearing the daoist robe looked gallant and imposing. However, there was a hint of confusion on his face.
The palace growing white also returned to the mansion of Vastsky Territory Lord. The entire place remained resplendent because this big shot has yet to recall his aura.
“Cough, cough.” Shiva also returned and walked over with the help of her stick. She took out six pieces of paper and said: “Young man, you still owe me 4,800,000,000 spirit stones.”
Feiyun ignored her and looked up in the air. The corpse dragon looked back down at him before flying into vast space. It has accomplished its mission so there was no need to stay any longer.
He turned his focus back into the present and smiled: “Senior, it was clearly only 480,000,000.”
“Oh? Take a look yourself.” Shiva showed him how each of the papers had an amount of 800,000,000. It was in his handwriting as well.
‘This goddamn grandma.’ He thought.
He could naturally afford to pay but who would want to do so? It wasn’t a small sum in the slightest. Many paragons didn’t have as much despite a lifetime of accumulation.
“I’m running low on spirit stones recently, wait a few more days.” He replied.
“Don’t try to trick an old woman, I saw you take the entire meteor just now, let me take off a piece and it’ll be enough.”
Remember, the meteor was actually a gigantic piece of Meteoric Spirit Stone. It ranked the ninth among the spirit stones. One piece alone was worth one billion regular spirit stones. Thus, it was a priceless treasure.
His dragon-phoenix armor’s power was deactivated as well. Given his current cultivation, he could fight weaker paragons but absolutely not this woman.
“Senior, your vision must be quite bad, that meteor was clearly taken by the corpse dragon. I don’t have it!”
“Is that so? I don’t buy it, looks like you’re forcing my hand.” Shiva had a friendly smile as she reached forward.
A chilling energy rushed out of her withered hand and flew towards Feiyun.
He secretly gathered the power of the saint energies, ready to shoot them out and then escape. The world was vast enough to have a place for him to stay.
“Brat, no need to fight her, come with me!” Grandpa Bi teleported next to him and grabbed his shoulder, pulling him into the pouch tied to the end of his wooden stick. He then leaped into the air.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Even Shiva was caught off guard.
“It’s you, dirty geezer! You must be tired of living!” Shiva swung her staff and destroyed several thousand miles of space.
Grandpa Bi’s speed was truly incredible. They could only see afterimages of him.
“Stop him!” The other experts unleashed various techniques upward.
The meteor was too precious. A city would need many eras and eras to accumulate the same level of wealth. They couldn’t watch the old beggar get away with it.
Moreover, they also believed that the treasure stored there was taken by Feiyun as well. It should be just as valuable.
“Boom!” A large turtle shell appeared behind Grandpa Bi. It was filled with mysterious and ancient runes, capable of stopping the incoming attacks.
His escaping ability was second to none. He disappeared from sight and they couldn’t calculate his position.
“The damn geezer, still as wretched as ever.” Shiva angrily pushed her stick down on the ground, destroying half of the city. Palaces crumbled to dust and sank down to the ground.
***
Three days later, Golden Plain Territory.
Grandpa Bi has been running for three days and three nights so he was exhausted. He took off the pouch and let out a blue light – Feiyun.
“… I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die…” He finally got away from all the pursuing experts. He dropped to the ground and heaved for breath.
Feiyun, on the other hand, had a leisurely three days. He spent it cultivating and consolidating his new power. He looked rather spirited as he posed with both hands behind his back: “Thank you for helping me, Grandpa Bi.”
“It’s no big deal, since you call me ‘Grandpa’, who else do I help if not you?” Grandpa Bi waved his hand.
Feiyun took out a spatial spirit stone and offered: “There are a few stones in here, consider it as a token of my gratitude.”
“A grandpa does not accept spirit stones from his juniors! No, do not give them to me!” Grandpa Bi’s expression became stern.
“Oh.” Feiyun agreed and nodded. He pulled his hand back and said: “My mistake, this was in poor taste. I’ll keep the one thousand worm-hole stones then.”
“One thousand worm-hole stones?!” Grandpa Bi’s eyes nearly left their sockets. This was equal to one billion spirit stones – a sum capable of making others salivate.
He stared at Feiyun’s pocket and regretted trying to act cool. He thought that the junior wouldn’t be able to afford that many spirit stones.
It was better to show his generous side and the style of a senior. Alas, the kid was a big player and took out one billion spirit stones.
He got the urge to slam his head into a wall. He was still staring at Feiyun’s pocket as he stammered: “Lil’ Fei, I think…”
“Grandpa, have you changed your mind about the spirit stones?” He asked innocently.
“Haha, of course not, don’t you know I’m a big shot? One thousand worm-hole spirit stones are nothing to me.” Grandpa Bi laughed coolly.
“Right, right, I understand now, a senior will never take a junior’s money. I was so out of line earlier, I’ll never make this mistake again.” He smiled.
“It’s fine, it’s fine, take your time learning, haha!” Grandpa Bi had a smile on his face but his heart was bleeding. Fuck, it’s not easy being a senior nowadays.
They were standing in a remote region. Next to them was a mountain range filled with pine trees and their scent.
Feiyun spread his divine intents and said: “This is quite far from the ruin.”
“I don’t know how far I’ve run but given the direction, we should be at the border of Vastsky and Golden Plain.” Grandpa Bi stood up and stretched first. He then drew something on the dirt with his foot in order to find the earth veins and know where they’re standing.
Given his occupation, he was on the run all the time and had a strong grasp of geography.
Vastsky, Golden Plain, and Crimson were part of the twelve territories of the southwest. Their population was higher than their peers.
“You absolutely can’t return to Vastsky since many experts there have seen your face and know the existence of your treasures. How about coming with me to Sacred Art Territory? I heard that you have a decent relationship with Second Young Noble. If you go there, no one from Vastsky will dare to touch you.”
Second Young Noble was none other than Heaven Calculating Scholar while the current ruler of Sacred Art was War Faction.
Sacred Art was at the earth level so War Faction should be quite strong. Remember, Second Young Noble just needed to say one thing and Firmaments had to obey.
Feiyun wasn’t as optimistic. The treasures he had just obtained were too valuable and highly coveted. His relationship with the scholar wasn’t that deep either. Who knows what the guy would do?
Going there right now could be going straight to a trap?
