Chapter 1122

~7 min read 1,377 words

He Pingsheng's speed was almost at its limit; he flew through the void, skimming the surface of Yu Huang Star!

Although the woman in black had dispatched a Celestial Immortal of the Feather Clan to pursue him, even if that Feather Clan member revealed their true form, they could not catch up to He Pingsheng.

And there was no way to lock onto him anymore!

After He Pingsheng had flown for about an hour, the cultivation base he had gained from the Heaven-Extreme Life-Transformation Art suddenly vanished.

He returned once again to the eleventh layer of the Human Immortal Stage.

At the same time, his hair began to turn grey in large patches, and his face became covered in dense wrinkles; seen from afar, he looked like an old man on the verge of death.

That single act just now had consumed a thousand years of his lifespan.

It was equivalent to his age increasing by a thousand years!

It was not that his age had actually caused him to grow old, but rather a manifestation of extreme physical weakness after the instantaneous loss of his lifespan and the support of his origin.

If given time and a period of recuperation, he would naturally be able to return to his original state.

Whoosh...

He Pingsheng transformed into light, fiercely sweeping past a flat forest.

The cyclonic fluctuations caused by his flight formed gusts of wind that blew into the dense forest below, and immediately, countless trees snapped and fell.

Seeing this situation, He Pingsheng hurriedly increased his flight altitude to avoid leaving any traces.

It was at this moment that he was surprised to discover that his cultivation base had actually broken through to the twelfth layer without him even realizing it.

"Holy shit..." He Pingsheng even blurted out a curse.

Broken through?

The bottleneck had broken?

No, it just broke like that?

Why?

His own bottleneck had suddenly broken, and He Pingsheng didn't even know why.

Could it be said that he had experienced life and death?

That's not right!

In that battle just now, He Pingsheng was certain he wouldn't die, so it couldn't be called experiencing life and death.

Then... could it be because I unleashed the Heaven-Extreme Life-Transformation Art, opening up the limits of my body and subjecting it to extreme pressure, and then this bottleneck just naturally broke?

Perhaps, that really is a possibility.

But regardless of which one it was, He Pingsheng was happy!

During his flight, he took out that Buddhist relic, absorbing the power of blood and Qi within it while flying at high speed.

At the same time, he took out a map of the entire Yu Huang Star.

He Pingsheng saw that he was not too far from a large city called 【Tea Flower Immortal City】, so he immediately changed direction and flew toward Tea Flower Immortal City.

Tea Flower Immortal City was one of the four massive satellite cities of Star Emperor City.

It was very close to Star Emperor City!

But even though it was close, with He Pingsheng's current flight speed while carrying the Heavenly Feather Immortal Talisman, it would still take two days to arrive.

After more than two days, He Pingsheng finally flew to the place named Tea Flower Immortal City.

He waved his hand and detached the wings from his body.

The wings vanished and then transformed back into a talisman.

This was truly magical.

He Pingsheng had originally thought that once this thing was removed, it would disappear completely, but he hadn't expected it to turn back into a talisman.

However, although it had condensed back into an immortal talisman, the energy within it was no longer abundant; if he were to unfold it another day, it would likely only be usable for half a day at most.

Half a day is fine too!

He Pingsheng put away the immortal talisman and lifted his feet to walk into the city.

As he was now, his face was covered in wrinkles and his hair was white; if one didn't look closely, it would be almost impossible to tell it was his true self.

This was also quite good, convenient for hiding!

He Pingsheng walked all the way to the immortal ship plaza of Tea Flower Immortal City.

He had no intention of staying in this immortal city, so He Pingsheng went directly to the ticket hall: "May I ask, where is the next departing immortal ship headed?"

"When does it depart?"

The woman in charge of ticket sales looked at the white-haired He Pingsheng and said: "In two hours, heading to Gui Wei Immortal City!"

"Good, help me buy a ticket!"

He Pingsheng paid the price of ten mid-tier immortal crystals to buy a ticket, and then boarded a massive immortal ship.

Two hours later, the immortal ship took off, heading toward 【Gui Wei Immortal City】.

Gui Wei Immortal City was right next to Tea Flower Immortal City, considered two adjacent immortal cities.

He Pingsheng kept taking immortal ships like this, and in a flash, six months passed.

Within six months, he had transferred immortal ships four times in total, finally arriving at a place called 【Sumeru Immortal City】 before settling down.

"Phew..."

After getting off the immortal ship, He Pingsheng let out a deep breath.

Regardless of anything else, having fled continuously for half a year and transferred several times in between, surely no matter how capable those people were, they couldn't have followed him here, right?

Looking at the massive immortal city before him, He Pingsheng's first task was to find the city gate exit.

He needed to leave the immortal city and find an uninhabited place in the wilderness to first raise his cultivation base.

After all, the momentum when advancing from Human Immortal to Earth Immortal was somewhat grand.

Breaking through in the city would be bad if it caused a stir.

He Pingsheng walked slowly down the street, wanting to head toward the city gate exit.

But before he reached the exit, he heard a burst of shouting: "Make way, make way, make way... the carriage of 【Biyun Xianzi Yanyun】 from the City Lord's Mansion is coming..."

"Everyone make way!"

He Pingsheng looked back and saw several Earth Immortal cultivators already beginning to clear the road.

He hurriedly walked to the side of the road.

Then he saw a massive carriage rumbling over from the other end of the street.

The carriage was huge, a full ten zhang wide and long, pulled in front by eight spirit beasts that He Pingsheng had never seen before.

Although the carriage was large, it was not sealed; it was just slightly shielded by a circle of curtains made of various flowers. However, as the carriage jolted, the curtains opened and closed slightly, allowing passersby a glimpse of Biyun Xianzi Yanyun's beautiful face inside the large carriage.

There wasn't just one person sitting in the carriage, but four or five young women.

He Pingsheng had originally felt nothing special from a hurried glance, but when he saw one of the women, he suddenly took a deep breath.

This...

This woman, such a familiar feeling.

Where have I seen her?

He Pingsheng's spiritual sense spun frantically, and after about one breath, he finally remembered.

Netherworld!

The Netherworld Empress in the Spirit Realm.

Although He Pingsheng had never seen her in person, he had once seen a portrait of this woman in Nan Qiqi's palace.

Could it really be this woman?

He Pingsheng dared not be certain, and naturally dared not scan her with his spiritual sense.

Besides, he didn't know the Netherworld Empress personally, and there was nothing to say.

Since that was the case, He Pingsheng was only slightly surprised before turning his head and leaving.

Even if it really was the Netherworld Empress, so what?

For the current He Pingsheng, not getting involved in karma was the best choice.

Better to avoid trouble than to invite it!

After the rumbling carriage passed, He Pingsheng returned to the middle of the road and continued walking slowly toward the city gate!

After leaving the city, he immediately flew into the void, and after flying continuously for several days, he finally found a cave in a deep, uninhabited mountain and hid inside.
