Chapter 54: Transmission Array (First Update)

  Can't blame me, I was ready to update at 12:30, but the author's area on Qidian was malfunctioning, and it took me an hour to get in.

  Too late... Sorry...

  Requesting recommendations for collecting fresh flowers.

  Yang Tianwen also guessed that the three major hidden world families must be practicing the cultivation of true immortality. Even if secular martial arts can break through to the divine level, it is extremely rare. On this vast continent, there are only three divine-level cultivators, which can be seen from this. Moreover, these three divine-level cultivators are all at least 80 years old, and some are even over a hundred years old. The elderly man who came to attend the conference from the Nangong family was only around fifty years old. If he wasn't practicing the cultivation of true immortality, how could he have reached the divine level so quickly? Moreover, that person is not the master of the Nangong family.

  "Then we won't be able to go to Xiūzhēnjiè?" Yang Tiān asked in confirmation.

  "It should be okay." Li Chengfeng said uncertainly.

  "What is supposed to be okay?" Yang Tian asked, confused. This can be okay, and that cannot be okay.

  "Ten thousand years ago, when the cultivators left, they used transmission arrays to leave. The continent still has the ancient transmission arrays from when the cultivators left back then. It should be possible to leave through there. However, opening the transmission array is almost impossible!" Li Chengfeng sighed.

  "Why? Don't you know where we are?" Yang Tian asked in puzzlement.

  "No, there are not just one transmission array, but five. The three major hidden world families each guard one, and the other two, my ancestors have left records, I've also been there." Li Chengfeng replied.

  "However, opening the transmission array requires twelve top-grade spirit stones, where can you find top-grade spirit stones on the Purple Mystic Continent? Not to mention top-grade, even lower-grade ones are hard to come by! My ancestor was a rare talent, but in his entire life, he couldn't find a single top-grade spirit stone. In the end, he died of exhaustion." Li Chengfeng sighed.

  Yang Tianwen understood, it turned out that without a spiritual stone, the transmission array couldn't be activated. It's imaginable that Li Chengfeng's ancestors were at least foundation-building cultivators, maybe even Golden Dan or Nascent Soul stage cultivators, with lifespans of over 500 years. In 500 years, gathering the power of an entire empire and still not being able to find a single high-quality spiritual stone, let alone twelve of them. No wonder Li Chengfeng's tone was so uncertain.

  Ling stone, this thing, Yang Tianwen has never seen it before, where can he find it? Moreover, if there is a ling stone here, the cultivators from ten thousand years ago would not have collectively escaped either.

  Yang Tian suddenly had an epiphany, wait a minute, the mainland doesn't have spirit stones, but that doesn't mean I don't have any! The Wishful Roulette is in my hands, as long as I unlock the third level, getting a few spirit stones shouldn't be a problem, right? Hahahahaha~~~~~~~~~~

  Yang Tian's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and he lowered his head, dazed, thinking about something.

  "Don't be discouraged, there's always a way, isn't there? Who says you can't cultivate to become an immortal without spirit stones or spirit medicine?" Li Chengfeng comforted Yang Tian. Yeah, it's possible, but the probability is almost negligible. If the path of cultivation was that easy, wouldn't everyone in the world be a cultivator?

  Yang Tianwen raised his head, knowing that Li Chengfeng had misunderstood, but didn't clarify it. He replied, "I understand. For a short period of time, I will stay at the Yu residence. Where is this transmission array you're talking about?"

  "In a bottomless pit west of Mingde Town in the southwestern corner of Nanzhu, there is one." Li Chengfeng replied without hesitation.

  Yang Tian asked with a bow: "Thank you, I will pay attention to the Ling Stone matter. If we are lucky enough to find it, I will definitely notify you. You'd better settle all your worldly affairs cleanly. Oh, and keep your hands and feet clean, no matter how powerful you are, you can't afford to be an enemy of the entire continent, right? Even if you're not afraid, becoming a public enemy of the continent would still be very troublesome."

  Li Chengfeng revealed a genuine smile, refilled the two cups of wine again, raised his cup and said: "Thank you, after everything is settled, Li will still need Brother Yang to lead the way, personally go to grandfather's grave to pay respects."

  "Anytime, anywhere." Yang Tian asked Duandian to raise his wine cup and clinked it with Li Chengfeng, downing it in one gulp.

  Then, Yang Tianwen and Li Chengfeng chatted extensively about everything under the sun, and their relationship became much closer. It was a bit exaggerated to say they were as close as brothers, but it was definitely deeper than a casual friendship. A pot of wine was finished off cup by cup, which was probably also the first time Yang Tianwen had drunk so much, usually he would only drink a little.

  As the sun sets in the west, Yang Tianwen and Li Chengfeng bid each other farewell. Yang Tianwen uses his divine movement technique to descend the mountain and rush straight to Yutong City.

  It was just in time as the sky turned dark and the city gate was about to close.

  After entering the city gate, he didn't delay and went straight to the Jade Mansion.

  The Jade Manor surprisingly didn't close its doors, and two Jade Manor guards were still standing in front of the main gate. Of course, these guards were also divided into ranks, and those standing guard at the entrance were actually just lower-ranking servants of the Jade Manor. One of them saw Yang Tianwen walking up and immediately recognized him, respectfully greeting him: "Young Master Yang has returned, please enter!" Needless to say, Yang Tianwen had stayed here for quite some time, and Yu Hengshan had repeatedly emphasized his status in the Jade Manor; how could they dare to be slow in attending to him?

  Yang Tian asked them and they nodded slightly, indicating something, then went in without asking much.

  As soon as he entered the east wing's courtyard, he heard a beautiful zither sound coming from his own courtyard. Just by listening to the sound of the zither, he knew it was definitely Water Xuanlan playing the zither. A master of the zither with a ranking of at least top three on the mainland, not just bragging, but truly skilled. It had been almost a month since he last saw her, and he didn't know what she was busy with in her space. Xia Bi'er said she was cultivating divine skills, could it be true? Yang Tianwen smiled self-mockingly.

  Walking through the long corridor, entering the courtyard, I saw a beautiful figure in the pavilion, intently playing the guqin. Beautiful, really beautiful, Yang Tian asked himself if he had ever seen such a beautiful woman, even in the 21st century, those super-beautiful female stars would be inferior to her by two points in terms of appearance, let alone their temperament. Such a talented, artistic, beautiful and virtuous woman is extinct in the 21st century, worthy of being every man's dream lover.

  Yang Tianwen slowly and quietly walked over, casually found a place to sit down and listen. All the troubles and worries in his heart were thrown away, and his soul seemed to have been purified.
