Chapter 503: Ancient Teleportation Array
Snow City is located at the border of the Water Yuan Kingdom, very far from the Imperial City.
Even though Xu Que and Er Gouzi took the teleportation array, they still had to transfer at other ancient cities along the way, rushing for a whole day before finally arriving at the Imperial City at dawn the next day!
"Haha, finally here! Kid, this time you played that Shang Wu to death. This Divine Venerable can only send you one word: Amazing!" As soon as they landed, Er Gouzi said excitedly. Along the way, it had been saying that Xu Que did a beautiful job!
"This damn thing is two words! Alright, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and go to the Imperial Palace to find Hongyan and see when we're setting off!" Xu Que patted Er Gouzi's dog head and strode toward the Imperial Palace.
He needed an exact departure time, and then he had to hurry up and improve his strength, for example, the newly bought Killing Book and Killing Sword must be brushed to full layers to have a guarantee when going overseas!
However, when the man and the dog rushed back to the palace, they found that the situation was not as smooth as imagined!
"What's the situation? Hongyan left first? Didn't we agree to wait for me?" Xu Que looked at Zi Xuan in astonishment.
He and Er Gouzi came to the palace but didn't find the Empress. Instead, Zi Xuan came to inform them that the Empress had left half a month ago, rushing to overseas ahead of time.
"Xu, you are not allowed to call my sister by her name directly! She left a step early because she had important matters. If you didn't catch up, you can only blame yourself. You ran back to the Fire Origin Kingdom for no reason—you went to see that Lady Ya, right?" Zi Xuan glared at Xu Que angrily.
When the Fire Emperor was killed on the spot, she was also present and knew that the so-called Li Bai was Xu Que in disguise, so she knew very well the relationship between Xu Que and Lady Ya.
However, Xu Que shook his head with a straight face and said righteously: "Are you kidding? Am I that kind of person? If you say such things, won't your conscience hurt? Come, come, come, come over a bit and let me touch your conscience!"
"Hmph, I'm not coming over! Anyway, before my sister left, she said that after you return, you can take that ancient teleportation array to go there yourself, and she left a letter for you!" Zi Xuan said, taking a paper letter from her storage ring!
Xu Que took the paper letter but didn't open it immediately, instead asking suspiciously: "What ancient teleportation array?"
"Hmph, you don't know this, right?" Zi Xuan's eyes suddenly flashed with cunning, and she said triumphantly: "Our Five Kingdoms seem very large, but in fact, they are just isolated islands in the endless sea. If you want to go to the Eastern Desolate Continent overseas, you have to cross that vast sea! Relying only on ordinary teleportation arrays or flying with swords is impossible to cross!"
"Oh, I see! You know so much!" Xu Que said speechlessly; he had long known these things.
"That's for sure!" Zi Xuan, however, thought Xu Que didn't know these things and continued to smile triumphantly. After all, these things were indeed difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with!
"Then you're really great! But what I'm asking is, what's going on with the ancient teleportation array?" Xu Que said helplessly.
"Didn't I just say it? Ordinary teleportation arrays can't cross that sea. Even Infant Transformation Stage experts have tried flying with swords, only to spend hundreds of years and still fail to find the continent, eventually having to return the same way, wasting hundreds of years in vain! But the ancient teleportation array is different. It is said to be passed down from ancient times and is enough to cross that sea. Among the Five Kingdoms, besides individual sects, only our Water Yuan Kingdom possesses an ancient teleportation array. Very few people know about this!" Zi Xuan explained, her face full of pride and arrogance!
Er Gouzi on the side, hearing this, immediately refused to accept it and said disdainfully: "Cut, isn't it just a higher-grade teleportation array? What ancient teleportation array! And it's not that no one can cross the sea; it's just that the cultivation of the people in the Five Elements Mountain is too low to fly over. And the Five Elements Mountain is too small, so it's no different from finding a needle in a haystack for those people overseas, so they didn't fly over!"
Xu Que finally realized. No wonder for so many years, no overseas cultivators had come here, and no experts from here could go overseas. In the final analysis, transportation wasn't convenient enough!
But looking at it this way, the Danyang Sect was indeed not simple. They likely possessed an ancient teleportation array, otherwise, how did Shang Wu's aunt go overseas? And how did Shang Wu move reinforcements from overseas?
"Hmph, I wasn't wrong either! I'm not talking to you anymore. Xu, my sister also left some things for you to handle, all in that letter. Read it yourself." Zi Xuan, hearing Er Gouzi say this, felt she had lost face, so she hurriedly turned and left.
Er Gouzi was instantly full of triumph, like a rooster that had won a battle, its waist and neck standing straight.
Xu Que immediately looked at it with disdain: "Er Gouzi, it's not that I want to talk about you, but you're too wicked! Can't you just pretend for a bit when Zi Xuan is so cute? Can't you give people some face?"
"Damn, kid, you don't have the qualifications to say such things!" Er Gouzi immediately widened its eyes.
Xu Que sneered: "Are you itching for a beating because you haven't been disciplined for too long? Hey, Hongyan said in the letter that the ancient teleportation array is in her bedroom. Yoxi, let's hurry and loot... ptooey, no, let's hurry over and take a look!"

Given Jiang Hongyan's personality, if she were capable of writing a love letter, the sun would have to rise from the west!
However, he still opened the letter, wanting to see exactly what words the Empress had left behind.
……
But a moment later, Xu Que put away the letter and sighed slightly.
As expected, it wasn't a love letter!
The words the Empress left for him were few, but they were quite crucial!
After all, Xu Que was unfamiliar with the overseas world; the Empress said she suddenly had an urgent matter and had to leave for a moment, and told Xu Que to take the ancient teleportation array alone.
The ancient teleportation array could only reach the Eastern Desolate Continent, so after arriving, he was to find an inn called "Bright Moon Pavilion" to stay at and wait for her there. Once she finished her business, she would come to pick Xu Que up and head to the Southern Continent to find Duan Jiude!
As for the words at the end of the letter, they were nothing more than instructions for Xu Que to keep a low profile after arriving there, not to provoke trouble, and to endure when necessary!
Because the Five Elements Mountain had a seal that suppressed people's power and was lacking in spiritual energy, cultivators there were generally not strong!
But overseas cultivators had complete techniques, and most of them had tempered their physical bodies, possessing extraordinary strength. If he were to provoke someone with a powerful background, it would easily attract a large group of people to hunt him down, and might even alarm some super experts at the Void Refinement Stage, or even old monsters at the Body Integration Stage!
Xu Que had already known this; the Geoduck of the Sea Race had already said these things.
But now he suddenly remembered; no wonder he always felt the Empress's strength was unfathomable before. It turned out it was because she came from overseas, but after arriving at the Five Elements Mountain, her strength was suppressed!
So, by comparison, considering the overall strength of the Sea Race, Xu Que figured out one thing!
His own strength, placed in the Five Elements Mountain, might be invincible!
But if he went overseas, perhaps among those of the same rank, he would at most be considered above average, and perhaps even top-tier.
But if he wanted to be like before, continuing to instantly kill opponents of the same rank, or even kill those of higher ranks, without the help of external objects, it would likely be very difficult to achieve!
"Sigh, for so long, this King of Acting Cool has been crushing enemies with overwhelming force. Without realizing it, I've become lazy and forgotten to continue improving my own strength!" Xu Que shook his head and sighed, rarely reflecting so seriously for once!
Er Gou patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Kid, don't belittle yourself. This God Venerable has lived for so long and has seen many geniuses; you can barely rank in the top ten! But when it comes to the skill of being shameless, you are definitely number one. Who can compete with you!"
"Slap!"
Instantly, Xu Que slapped Er Gou on the forehead!
"Er Gou, you'd better shut up, otherwise I'll leave you here! Eh, Hongyan said in the letter that the ancient teleportation array is in her sleeping palace. Yoshi, let's go quickly to loot... phew, no, let's go over and take a look!"
