King of Ten Thousand Years

Chapter 405 403: Leaving Dongchen

「Half a month later.」

Luo Tian returned to the Azure Cloud Kingdom.

The kingdom was as peaceful and prosperous as ever.

"The new Azure Cloud Kingdom was just established, and now an Alien Race enemy has arrived. Sigh!"

Luo Tian lamented.

He couldn't predict the fate of the Azure Cloud Kingdom, nor could he do much about it.

He headed straight for Black Demon Ridge in Lingyun County and tossed the Heart Essence he had harvested from Earth Level Demon Beasts in front of the Sleeping Beast Kun Ga.

ROAR!

Kun Ga let out a low growl and scrambled to its feet excitedly, kicking up a cloud of dust.

It opened its mouth, swallowed all the Heart Essence, and began to chew and devour it with a look of pure satisfaction.

"Old friend, the Dongchen Continent is about to face a disaster," Luo Tian said, his face etched with worry.

In a war that would engulf the entire Dongchen Continent, an individual's strength was insignificant. This was true for Luo Tian, and it was true for the Sleeping Beast as well.

Fortunately, however, Luo Tian would be leaving Dongchen and escaping the disaster for the time being.

ROAR! ROAR!

The Sleeping Beast roared, as if to say, 'No matter how big the disaster, surely there will still be a place to sleep, right?'

Luo Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Alright, I'm leaving. Take care of yourself."

Luo Tian bid farewell to the Sleeping Beast.

ROAR!

The Sleeping Beast bellowed its goodbye, also telling Luo Tian to remember to bring some tasty food next time.

「Half a month later.」

Luo Tian returned to the Yunxiao Sect.

He clearly sensed that the atmosphere in the Yunxiao Sect was completely different from that of the Azure Cloud Kingdom.

He asked around and learned quite a bit.

First, the several high-ranking members of the Bishui Palace who had visited the Yunxiao Sect had all been killed. This alarmed the Bishui Palace, which was now putting pressure on the Yunxiao Sect.

Second, the news about the Cyan Armor Race that Luo Tian had spread through the Martial City had reached the Yunxiao Sect, causing a huge commotion.

Afterward, the Yunxiao Sect had sent three Elders and several Stewards deep into the Celestial Extreme Mountain Range to investigate, but only one Elder returned.

The upper echelon of the Yunxiao Sect was thoroughly alarmed.

The Supreme Elder came out of seclusion and personally led a group deep into the Celestial Extreme Mountain Range to encircle and annihilate the Cyan Armor Race!

Just in case, the Yunxiao Sect had already sent out calls for aid to the other powers on the continent.

'For now, it should only be that one group of the Alien Race that has arrived on the Dongchen Continent. If we can eliminate them quickly, the problem won't be too big,' Luo Tian speculated.

He arrived at Alchemy Peak, preparing to find his master, Mu Yunshi.

"Master?"

Luo Tian found that there was no one in the residence.

Going inside to check, Luo Tian found a letter on the table.

"You were too slow. Your master has already departed. After leaving the Dongchen Continent, head to the Human Race's territory as quickly as possible..."

"He actually left!"

Luo Tian was a little speechless.

Thinking it over, he realized Mu Yunshi must have left early on purpose.

He had some business to attend to and it wasn't convenient to bring Luo Tian along.

Besides, the Outer World Space was fraught with danger. Mu Yunshi didn't want to be Luo Tian's bodyguard; he wanted Luo Tian to face difficulties and experience trials on his own.

Luo Tian went to Yunxiao Hall and met with the Sect Leader.

The Yunxiao Sect Master's expression was grave, as if he was worried about something.

When he saw Luo Tian, his expression was placid as he said, "Your master already spoke with me. If you want to leave now, you may do so at any time."

"I will depart in three days!"

Luo Tian made his decision.

The Sect Leader nodded slightly and said nothing.

"Sect Leader, what is the situation with the Cyan Armor Race?" Luo Tian asked.

The information he had gathered was all from the disciple circles; what the Sect Leader knew would certainly be more accurate and comprehensive.

"The situation is not optimistic. There is a Celestial Level Martial Artist among the enemy, making them difficult to kill. The Supreme Elder has already set out, but the specific details are still unknown."

The Sect Leader's brows furrowed slightly.

Luo Tian was the first to discover the Cyan Armor Race, and since he was about to leave Dongchen for the Outer World, there was no reason to hide anything from him.

"A Celestial Level Martial Artist!"

Luo Tian was startled. This was something he hadn't known before.

On the Dongchen Continent, Celestial Level Martial Artists were near-legendary existences. One could only imagine the difficulty of killing an Alien Race Celestial Level Martial Artist.

Suddenly, the Sect Leader's gaze shifted. He took out a token and received a message.

"They failed. The enemy was too cunning and escaped!" the Sect Leader sighed.

This was a rather bad outcome.

Currently, the Yunxiao Sect had only one path: annihilate the enemy.

The Dongchen Continent was a hidden, elusive Secret Realm. As long as its position wasn't tracked, it could become hidden once more.

If they failed to eliminate this group of enemies, more of the Alien Race would arrive after a while. At that point, the Dongchen Continent would be completely exposed, and a full-scale war would erupt.

Luo Tian suddenly thought of a problem.

The true masters of the major powers on the Dongchen Continent were all people from the Outer World. Their original intention was to seek refuge here.

What if the sanctuary was exposed and could no longer serve as a refuge?

Would these people from the Outer World retreat and abandon the entire Dongchen Continent?

Luo Tian's heart trembled, and his gaze dimmed.

'The probability of that happening is at least fifty or sixty percent...'

He felt a profound sense of his own inadequacy; there were many things he was powerless to affect.

Once again, Luo Tian felt an intense craving for power.

If he had been strong enough, he could have single-handedly annihilated the high-ranking members of Bishui Palace and the Cyan Armor Race back in the Celestial Extreme Mountain Range, and the Dongchen Continent would not be facing this crisis.

The recent series of events further solidified Luo Tian's resolve to leave Dongchen and pursue strength!

He turned and left Yunxiao Hall to prepare for his journey to the Outer World in three days.

'First, I need to get some money.'

Luo Tian originally had over fifty thousand Spiritual Essence Coins, but he had used most of them for the Inference of the *Celestial Furnace Treasure Body* and to help Qi Yuntian perfect the *Wuji Saint Qian Skill*.

Fortunately, Luo Tian had obtained many precious materials and Demon Cores from hunting Earth Level Demon Beasts in the Celestial Extreme Mountain Range.

After selling them all, Luo Tian had over thirty-four thousand Spiritual Essence Coins.

"Kid, you're leaving Dongchen?"

When the Crow heard this news, it became incredibly excited. "My beloved concubines from back in the day must be washing their faces with tears every day, bitterly awaiting this god's return."

'Qi Yuntian said that when leaving Dongchen, it's best to have a special flying artifact and a flying Spirit Pet...'

Luo Tian planned to trade for a flying artifact, but it turned out the cheapest one cost a shocking fifty thousand Spiritual Essence Coins!

"So expensive!"

Luo Tian couldn't help but recall the large ship the higher-ups from the Celestial Ring Alliance used when they visited the Yunxiao Sect. That must have cost at least one or two hundred thousand Spiritual Essence Coins.

Flying mounts were slightly cheaper, but buying one would still nearly wipe out Luo Tian's savings.

"Forget it. I'll have to make do. I'm counting on you!" Luo Tian said to the Crow.

"What did you say? This god is not a flying mount! Don't even think about it! Not in this lifetime!"

The Crow immediately shrieked in dissatisfaction, so loudly that Luo Tian's ears were about to burst. He tossed it directly into the Celestial Book.

After that, he said his goodbyes to his friends in the Yunxiao Sect, such as Ning Xin and Ke Yuexuan.

「Three days later.」

Luo Tian arrived at Yunxiao Hall once more.

"You're here?" the Sect Leader said coolly.

"Greetings, Sect Leader. This disciple is ready," Luo Tian said solemnly.

At the same time, he noticed that besides the Yunxiao Sect Master, there were three other familiar faces.

Cheng Wanli, Ye Feng, and Yi Jingwen!

They greeted each other, and Luo Tian learned that the three of them were also leaving Dongchen and would be traveling with him!

Cheng Wanli was the Sect Leader's son, so he was qualified to leave.

Ye Feng and Yi Jingwen were the disciples of the Grand Elder and the Second Elder, respectively. Both of those Elders were also from the Outer World and had given the spots to their own disciples.

Originally, the Sect Leader and the two Elders had believed that Cheng Wanli and the others should at least reach the Middle Tier Earth Element Realm before they would feel at ease letting them leave Dongchen.

But now, the great enemy of the Alien Race was about to invade, and war could break out at any moment.

Fearing that some accident might occur, they decided to send the three of them out of Dongchen now, conveniently along with Luo Tian.

The Outer World was fraught with peril.

Few people traveled the Outer World alone; most operated in small teams.

"Follow me!"

The Sect Leader led Luo Tian and the other three to a hidden Ancient Hall on the mountain behind Yunxiao Hall.

This was the location of the Realm-Breaking Teleportation Array!

Stepping into the Ancient Hall, they saw that the ground was covered in complex and obscure array patterns, exuding an aura of ancient times.

The ceiling was open to the air, and looking up, they could see the vast, boundless sky.

From a corner of the hall, a portly, white-haired old man walked out. It was none other than the Grand Elder of the Yunxiao Sect, who guarded this place on a daily basis!

"After leaving Dongchen, be careful in all things. Keep a low profile and try not to stir up trouble!"

The Grand Elder's gaze swept over Luo Tian and the others, finally resting on Ye Feng.

"Let's begin!" the Sect Leader said.

SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

The Yunxiao Sect Master and the Grand Elder flew to opposite sides of the ancient array. They formed hand seals for a spell, and a dazzling, magnificent radiance rippled out like misty clouds, merging into the array.

The array patterns on the ground began to flicker, bursting forth with a five-colored brilliance.

In midair, the void twisted and trembled as a majestic power rapidly brewed, reaching its peak!

BOOM!

The array beneath their feet suddenly erupted with a magnificent, dazzling silver pillar of light that shot into the clouds, as if ascending into the distant, starry cosmos!

"Step into the pillar of light, and you will be able to leave!" the Yunxiao Sect Master announced.

Luo Tian was the first to step inside, followed by Ye Feng, Cheng Wanli, and the others.

SHHHF!

A splendid light flashed. Like a brilliant meteor, they shot up the magnificent pillar of light, rising into the sky and reaching the distant other side!

A few breaths later, the pillar of light dimmed and dissipated.

"Don't worry. They are the most outstanding disciples of the Yunxiao Sect; they will be fine. Perhaps in a few years, when they return from the Outer World, they will be able to influence the state of the war in Dongchen..." the Grand Elder comforted the Sect Leader.

"I think you're more worried than I am," the Sect Leader said, glancing at him.

The Grand Elder sighed and said nothing more.

The Outer Void was fraught with peril.

Luo Tian and the others all had the cultivation of the Initial Tier Earth Element Realm; they were bound to encounter many hardships.

But crisis and opportunity coexist. It was also possible that they could soar to the heavens in a single leap and become true powerhouses.
