Chapter 360: Quietly Returning to the Sect
If it were an ordinary cultivator facing this situation, they would only have two choices: either stop here or take the risk to move forward.
But Liu Yu was different; he had more options, the choice to enhance his own strength.
He would never stop here, nor would he recklessly put his life in danger to advance!
He had already collected forty-nine types of auxiliary materials for refining the Golden Core Pill, only missing seven types of auxiliary herbs and the main ingredient, the Five Elements Spiritual Fruit, to complete the collection. It would be just a matter of time.
According to the information from the sect and other sources, within a thousand miles of “Celestial Rampart City,” the White Cloud Temple had opened many spiritual herb gardens, likely containing the spiritual herbs he needed.
He absolutely could not allow himself to miss this opportunity!
“The Foundation Establishment Pill has already been brought back by a member of the Yan Family. Two years have passed, and if nothing unexpected happens, my maid should be attempting to break through to Foundation Establishment by now.”
“This girl has decent aptitude, and with the various resources I provided, I hope everything goes smoothly.”
“With the spiritual connection energy, that…”
Liu Yu silently thought, his mind conjuring the image of a delicate and beautiful female cultivator.
He had already notified Jiang Qiushui and Cold Moon Heart of his plan to return to the sect.
He instructed the two women to cooperate with each other and make the necessary preparations, so there was no need to worry about that.
If everything went smoothly and he returned on time, it would be as if nothing had happened; if there were delays, the two women would also have contingency plans.
After packing his belongings without disturbing any cultivators, Liu Yu commanded the Shield Wind Boat and shot into the sky, transforming into a hidden escape light flying south.
He was heading directly towards the direction of the Ancient Rampart City, located in the southernmost part of Youzhou!
The construction of the teleportation array was extremely complex, involving the mysteries of space. Even the simplest teleportation array required at least a second-tier array master to attempt its construction.
Moreover, the Yan State was fifty thousand miles away from the Chu State, and it would require a mid-range teleportation array to cross between the two countries, making the construction even more difficult.
Even with the five sects of Chu State working together, it took two years to build a single teleportation array in Ancient Rampart City.
With this teleportation array, any sudden change in the situation would allow high-level cultivators to quickly come to the aid or escape.
Therefore, the five sects of Chu State guarded Ancient Rampart City with utmost vigilance, leaving behind several golden core cultivators, fearing any mishaps.
Liu Yu was planning to use Ancient Rampart City to teleport directly back to the sect.
Otherwise, if he relied on his own flying, he would be too late, and collecting spiritual herbs would be out of the question.
…
After flying dozens of miles from Eternal Prosperity Market, Liu Yu no longer concealed the escape light and flew directly towards Ancient Rampart City at full speed in a straight line.
The three thousand-mile return journey was through forces that had been subdued, so there was no need to worry about being ambushed.
Even the remnants of the White Cloud Temple could not pose any threat; they could only hide and dare not show themselves.
If he were to encounter a strong opponent while advancing this way, it would not have been so smooth.
As he sped through, he used medium-grade spiritual stones to provide power to the Shield Wind Boat, resulting in minimal consumption of magical power.
Thus, Liu Yu did not pause at all and did not need to stop to recover his magical power.
In just four and a half hours, the outline of Ancient Rampart City appeared before him.
