Where do you think we are now?” Xuan Tianwu suddenly lowered his head, glancing at Wang Yu, who had just finished his cultivation, and asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he spoke, most turned to look, and even those who had been meditating with closed eyes opened theirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing this, Wang Yu paused briefly, then replied slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xuan, that’s hard to guess.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After all, Wu Country borders Yu Country and Feng Country, and nearby lie vast, desolate spirit-dead zones. Normally, no cultivators go there—but if Elder Jin has other plans, then who can say?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s there to guess? Elder Jin already said he’d take us to the mission site. Before we left, the Ancestors all hinted this was a special mission against the demonic sects. We’re definitely deep in demonic territory now,” Luo Yiming interjected coldly, pausing his Cashi  of his blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh? So Brother Luo thinks we’re already in Yu Country?” The Tianhe Princess smiled as she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course. Even if we’re not in Yu Country, we’re surely within Tongzhou, now under demonic control,” Luo Yiming replied without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yu Country is possible, but Tongzhou? Unlikely. Tianhe Prefecture isn’t far from Tongzhou. With Elder Jin’s abilities, he wouldn’t need so long just to sneak us in,” Yuan Tong shook his head after hearing the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If not Tongzhou, then it must be Yu Country. It seems our mission is likely to sabotage the demonic sects’ rear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Such missions are the most dangerous and demand exceptional ability. No wonder Elder Jin Jin Dan himself came to lead us,” Luo Yiming declared firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we’re truly in Yu Country, then we’re deep behind enemy lines. We must be extra cautious—one slip could cost us our lives,” Xuan Tianwu frowned after listening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe, does Brother Xuan want to turn back? If you’re truly afraid later, just step out. Others can too,” Luo Yiming chuckled, glancing deliberately at Wang Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At these words, Xuan Tianwu’s face darkened, but he said nothing. Wang Yu’s expression remained calm, though he sighed inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During this journey, how could he not see that Luo Yiming clearly had designs on the Tianhe Princess? Yet she had always shown him some familiarity—naturally, this made the Qianzhu Sect’s true disciple deeply displeased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yu, thinking of this, unconsciously glanced at the Tianhe Princess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She frowned slightly, as if displeased with Luo Yiming’s words, but said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Does she truly like me—or is she just using me as a shield?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, recently, Luo Yiming had casually mentioned to everyone that he had close ties with a certain Qianzhu Sect Ancestor, deeply favored by that Ancestor, and thus possessed considerable influence within the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with her imperial background, facing Luo Yiming’s intense pursuit, she might find it hard to outright refuse him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Luo, your words are mistaken. How could a disciple of the Four Symbols Sect ever retreat in battle? But you and Wang Dizi—you’ve only just established your Foundation after a few years. You act so fearless—but how many demonic cultivators have you slain? Have you, like Wang Dizi, faced Zhu Wuyan and killed a demonic Foundation Establishment cultivator?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you only know how to talk big, anyone can do that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Wang Yu pondered, the red-robed woman who had been playing with the five-colored bird on her shoulder suddenly spoke calmly—but her tone dripped with sarcasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You—” Luo Yiming turned pale with rage, momentarily at a loss for a reply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Zhuo Fan interrupted the conversation:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Friends, stop. Our mission’s destination isn’t Yu Country—it’s somewhere else.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this, everyone—including Wang Yu—was startled. All eyes snapped to the Qianzhu Sect man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Zhi Ming, the Golden Temple monk who had kept his eyes closed, opened them, his face showing faint surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Caishang immediately raised her brows and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Zhuo, what do you mean? Do you know the true location of this mission?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How could I know? But I know we’re flying over a desert—and we entered it half a month ago, and still haven’t left it. In my memory, Yu Country has no such vast desert,” Zhuo Fan replied calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Amitabha. Brother Zhuo, how do you know we’re in a desert? Can your spiritual sense penetrate beyond this cauldron?” Zhi Ming murmured a Buddha’s name before asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This cauldron is a third-rank treasure—I have no such ability.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just have a special talent. For other terrains, I can’t say—but once we enter desert land, I naturally sense it. It has nothing to do with spiritual sense strength,” Zhuo Fan replied vaguely, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ambiguous statement left everyone startled and doubtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yu’s mind raced as he tried to recall whether any desert of this scale existed near Wu Country—but none of the geographical texts he’d read mentioned such a place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the giant cauldron shuddered violently, as if stopping. Then, simultaneously, all heard Elder Jin Ding’s impatient voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Enough. We’ve arrived. Everyone, get out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No sooner had he spoken than a golden veil that had surrounded the cauldron for over a month shattered with a “puff.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yu immediately swept his spiritual sense in all directions, his face twisting slightly with oddness. He tapped the ground lightly with one foot and floated effortlessly out of the giant cauldron, his body wreathed in a wisp of white flame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others did the same, each using their own methods to leap from the golden cauldron, raising their heads to survey their surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They found themselves in a vast oasis: at its center, a small lake and a few stone huts; nearby, only a handful of trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around the oasis stretched endless yellow sand. Farther out rolled waves of yellow wind, and even the sky was grayish, as if shrouded by something, making the midday sun appear dim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Jin Ding hovered nearby, his gaze fixed on two figures approaching from the stone huts beside the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yu narrowed his eyes—and instantly recognized one familiar boyish face. He froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others were equally stunned. Yun Caishang cried out their identities:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Chen, Sister Qin—how are you two here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy was none other than Chen Tianxing, the former top true disciple of the Four Symbols Sect, who had vanished from the sect for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yu had met him once years ago and remembered him vividly—he recognized him at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman beside him, “Sister Qin,” was a white-robed girl of about fourteen or fifteen, with delicate features and a small black turtle resting on her shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yu suddenly felt a flash of understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>",1109,"2026-06-20T15:44:32.161Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","8a7bd3af937c3a8de30736fedfc271999f6dd2ff91bb9d229e94b8b20c6fe859","the-immortal-path-among-the-stars-chapter-365","the-immortal-path-among-the-stars-chapter-363",530,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-immortal-path-among-the-stars-cover.jpg"]
