Chapter 1397

Let's go.

Without a mount, we can only travel on foot.

He flew up riding the wind, and Xun Shuang Xianzi also rode the wind, flying toward a certain direction.

There is a sun slowly moving in the sky, but having a sun doesn't necessarily allow one to tell east from west, because each world's rules differ; the sun may not travel from west to east, it could be reversed, or go from south to north.

Everything in this world is unknown; opening the map shows it completely black, only places visited can be lit, somewhat similar to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield.

On the map's signature, this world is named 'Discarded 87', looks like a serial number, probably one of many discarded worlds.

The two flew through the air at a speed that was neither too fast nor too slow.

Skimming above the ground, everything in sight was dead silent, only yellow earth and great wind; even ruined walls were not visible, already unknown how many tens of thousands of years it has been deserted.

Boom!

As they flew, they suddenly saw a rift torn open in the distant sky; the shadow of the Void World was projected down, beginning to invade this world, gulping down matter and energy in big mouthfuls.

Although far away, the two still instinctively avoided that rift, keeping far from it.

'There probably isn't a teleportation array here; it's completely a dead world, fodder for the Void Beasts.' Xun Shuang Xianzi judged.

'Then how do we go back?' Xiao Feng asked her.

She thought, then replied: 'I'll try to contact my senior martial sister; with her strength, she should be able to open a void passage to guide us.'

'Hmm.'

Xiao Feng was also very curious about her senior martial sister; according to legend, the chief disciple of Yunchu Shan, who first appeared tens of thousands of years ago, easily defeated the invincible Heavenly Immortal Realm woodcutter and angler.

Afterward, her strength kept growing rapidly, leaving the woodcutter and angler far behind, not even seeing their taillights.

She wasn't the oldest disciple of Yunchu Shan, but being called senior martial sister and honored as chief disciple shows her strength is absolutely the strongest!

A Grand Luo-level powerhouse, opening a void passage should not be difficult.

Xun Shuang Xianzi closed her eyes, motionless, began trying to call her martial sister.

Xiao Feng stood aside, waiting silently.

A gust of wind blew by, bringing a wisp of fragrant aroma that made one feel refreshed and delighted.

Xiao Feng secretly took a look.

This fairy maiden's figure is truly beautiful; beneath her cloud-like white robes lie graceful curves, shoulders like cut jade, waist like bundled silk, standing tall in the wind like a flawless green lotus.

No matter from which angle you view her, her outline is flawless, beautiful without a single blemish.

Unfortunately… one cannot see her face.

Her face seems to have an illusion technique; no matter how one gazes, even using mental will to observe, cannot see through that layer of mist.

At a glance, it seems to be a human face underneath.

Upon closer inspection, it seems like a mask.

If one focuses their spirit to gaze, then nothing is visible, only white mist obscuring.

The more seriously one stares at her, the less one can see her face; this situation, Xiao Feng has never encountered before.

Xun Shuang Xianzi closed her eyes and tried for a while; after a moment, she slightly shook her head: 'No, it's too far away, cannot send a distress signal to the senior martial sister.'

'What should we do…'

Xiao Feng furrowed his brows.

He himself has a way to escape; as long as Xun Shuang Xianzi can return safely, he can teleport away at any time.

But she couldn't contact the Yunchu Shan senior martial sister, making the situation somewhat awkward.

Here there is no interworld teleportation array; wanting to rely on one's own strength to open a path requires at least Golden Immortal-level cultivation.

Although their combat power is comparable to Golden Immortals, their realm is still far behind; they cannot break through in a short time.

Could it be that we must re-enter the Void World, drift about to another place to seek opportunity?

'Let's take another look.'

Xun Shuang Xianzi also felt somewhat troubled, she flew on the wind, continuing to wander aimlessly in the abandoned World 87.

That wandering lasted several hours.

At first her speed wasn't very fast, but everything she saw was almost the same dead silence; her heart gradually grew somewhat impatient, and she flew faster and faster, until later Xiao Feng could not even keep up—she herself had diverted a wisp of immortal power to pull him along.

After several hours, the distance they flew was estimated at no less than 300,000 kilometers, yet they gained nothing.

"There won't be any living beings here; we can only carve out a passage to leave," Xiao Feng said.

She gradually reduced her speed and halted in midair.

"Let's seek Enlightenment."

Xun Shuang Xianzi descended toward the ground.

"Enlightenment?" Xiao Feng wondered.

She said: "By comprehending the Void Grand Dao, as long as one achieves minor success in its understanding, one can freely roam all heavens and myriad worlds."

"Uh..."

Xiao Feng's expression stiffened.

His words made it sound as if achieving minor success in Enlightenment was easy.

Enlightenment and comprehending the Dharma are the same, except that Enlightenment is a higher level; below immortals and the God King Realm, one merely borrows heavenly and earthly power to employ some means, enhancing striking power.

But after becoming an immortal or attaining the God King Realm, what one comprehends is the deeper effect of the laws; one will gain greater power, able to mobilize the true power of the cosmic Dao, accomplishing things that transcend common sense.

If one wishes to travel from one world to another, the Void Grand Dao can indeed satisfy that need.

But the technical difficulty here...

"Ah, this will probably take many years," Xiao Feng sighed.

Xun Shuang Xianzi flicked her sleeve, clearing the rock on the ground clean.

She then sat down in place, closed her eyes, and began to comprehend the Void Grand Dao within the Primitive Classic.

Before starting, she said to Xiao Feng: "You go on, I know you have a way to leave, no need to worry about me."

"No way, you fell into the void rift to save me; leaving you here would make me ungrateful." Xiao Feng shook his head repeatedly, refusing.

Xun Shuang Xianzi said: "It's fine, I don't blame you. This place's space is unstable; the void's laws are clearest here. Practicing here can help me grasp the way of the void more quickly."

Xiao Feng still felt uneasy, continuing to shake his head: "Enlightenment isn't something achieved overnight; by the time you fully comprehend it, decades or even centuries may have passed."

"Immortal beings can live a hundred thousand years; I have plenty of time." Her tone grew ever calmer, as if she had already made up her mind.

Decades of sitting alone, in this world devoid of anyone, not even a single blade of grass……

Such loneliness is comparable to drifting in the void world!

Xiao Feng felt uneasy in his heart.

Others risk everything to save him, yet he would just pat his butt and leave—he couldn't bring himself to do that!

But… what would staying accomplish?

His understanding of the laws is far inferior to Xun Shuang Xianzi's; he'd be of no help at all!

Right!

He could use the 【Myriad Heavens Transmission Token】 to go to other worlds, search for resources of the cross‑world transmission scroll, then return and bring her away together!

After using the 【Myriad Heavens Transmission Token】, he can return to the world before departure within 72 hours; although he can't bring anyone with him, he can go buy the scroll and then return to take her away!

Although the world he reaches might not necessarily have the cross‑world transmission scroll, it's still better than standing here foolishly!

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng immediately took out the token he had never used before and gave it a try.

He activated the transmission function, and the system popped up a prompt.

【Prompt: After using the transmission function, you will be randomly sent to another world; you can return to the original location within 72 hours. Beyond 72 hours, return is impossible. Confirm use?】

"Yes!"

Knowing he could return, he was in high spirits, didn't bother explaining to Xun Shuang Xianzi, and vanished right where he stood.

Xun Shuang Xianzi sensed the spatial fluctuation, opened her eyes, and looked over.

Xiao Feng's figure gradually faded; she felt a slight surprise, a tightness in her chest, and a bit of gloom.

"At least pretend to think of a way, and stay a few more days……"

She let out a faint sigh, utterly disappointed.

Immediately she calmed her mind and continued to contemplate the great way of the void.
