Chapter 1830: Chapter 1857: Liaowang and Ma Niubi Are Gone
With her little scheme seen through, Immortal Hu felt a bit awkward but still naturally put away the talisman and activated the teleportation altar.
"Be careful, this woman isn’t as naive as she seems; she won’t honestly lead us across."
Yu Huan Shui said quietly.
"Will it be your territory on the other side?"
Li Xiaobai asked.
"Of course, the Boundary Sea is my old lair. Returning there is like going home, no organization or regulators dare to interfere."
Yu Huan Shui replied confidently.
"Finally, a place to relax, it’s been too intense lately, a bit overwhelming."
Ma Niubi sighed in relief.
"The altar is activated."
Liaowang looked at the Rainbow Colored Mini Altar and said, as the crystal ball on the altar formed a Spiritual Power Vortex.
Inside, the chaos of wind and lightning caused by the spatial disorder calmed in just an instant. The teleportation methods of the starry sky are indeed incomparable to those of the Immortal Gods Realm, and their methods of stabilizing spatial channels are extremely clever.
"Everyone, the teleportation channel is constructed, ready to depart at any time."
Immortal Hu said.
Under Yu Huan Shui’s scorching gaze, she ultimately couldn’t convey the message.
"What are we waiting for? Let’s go."
Li Xiaobai put his arm around Immortal Hu’s shoulder and pushed her into the spatial channel. After confirming there were no issues, the rest followed.
Immortal Hu walked in front, while the three followed, always maintaining a two-meter distance.
This distance ensured they could flee if problems arose, while also preventing Immortal Hu from exiting the spatial channel first to close the teleportation altar.
On the surface, it seemed casual, but each step was full of hidden intentions.
Immortal Hu gritted her teeth; these people were too alert, not giving her any room to maneuver.
As a prodigy of the Hehuan Sect who had been secluded, she was tasked with the heavy responsibility of reversing the situation on a battlefield somewhere in the future, yet she was taken advantage of at her first venture into the world.
The sense of distance from the three behind her was too well-calculated, and there were subtle details she couldn’t understand, such as how the steps of the three maintained the same frequency as hers, making it sound like only one pair of footsteps.
Yet previously, she wouldn’t have noticed such details. Experiencing an unprecedented crisis made her more sensitive.
She understood and evolved. She truly was a genius, gradually adapting to Li Xiaobai’s strange way of thinking.
Heh, as a top-tier genius, she had more than one trick. Failing to contact the sect cultivators was unfortunate, but no matter. That talisman was meant to be a decoy, an open plot to attract attention. Her true ace was hidden, and the teleportation altar had been tampered with.
Even Mr. Yu hadn’t noticed the special methods she used.
"Immortal Hu, your steps are getting slower, plotting some scheme, are you?"
Li Xiaobai suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.
"I’m walking at the same pace, I haven’t slowed down?"
Immortal Hu was startled and quickly replied.
"But your steps are getting smaller; although your pace hasn’t changed, it’s turned into little steps."
Li Xiaobai pointed at her feet, speaking slowly.
"Is there something ahead in this channel?"
"Uh, no, I wasn’t paying attention..."
Immortal Hu tried to defend herself, but before she could finish, a page suddenly flipped across her face.
"Gate of Destiny!"
"Walk down this path!"
Yu Huan Shui scribbled small letters on her face, uncertain of the danger within the channel and not daring to waste time reading.
Since certain danger was ahead, letting Immortal Hu scout the way was better.
Though unsure of her intentions, it’s always best to strike first.
As the page closed, Immortal Hu turned, mechanically striding forward, with Li Xiaobai and the others following for a while, with no anomalies.
Only when they saw the light at the end of the channel did a sudden change occur.
The spatial corridor began to split, changing from a single path to two in the blink of an eye, with a branching path beside the four, emitting a strong suction force.
Ma Niubi was the first to be pulled in without any resistance.
Liaowang reacted swiftly, grabbing the spatial barrier, hanging in mid-air.
"Amitabha, this humble monk can block part of the suction force. You two quickly run."
Liaowang struggled, wedging himself in the corridor, but the force was too strong, slowly devouring him.
"Gate of Destiny!"
"Void’s power is irresistible, they can’t be saved, we protect ourselves!"
Yu Huan Shui flipped the pages on Li Xiaobai and himself, swiftly writing a line.
[Unable to feel anything, the body quickly flies beside Immortal Hu.]
It all happened in a flash.
In an instant.
Li Xiaobai and Yu Huan Shui flew backward toward Immortal Hu.
While Ma Niubi and Liaowang disappeared into the channel’s branching path.
"I knew there was trouble, this girl tampered with the teleportation altar, splitting into another teleportation channel!"
Yu Huan Shui felt a little scared; with his current power, being sucked in might have meant no escape.
"Throw her in!"
Li Xiaobai said coldly, preparing to lift Immortal Hu.
"Wait, there might be more traps ahead?"
"Let me find out where they were teleported..."
Yu Huan Shui moved in front of Immortal Hu, carefully reading with a relaxed expression.
"Ancient Starry Sky Road, First Battlefield!"
"This troublesome girl has a bit of conscience; she didn’t teleport them to a dead end."
Yu Huan Shui said.
"What’s the First Battlefield?"
Li Xiaobai curiously asked.
"Another realm, where true powerhouses gather. It’s said the Ancient Starry Sky Road leads to immortality, and the First Battlefield is where fighters for the Starry Sky Road are selected."
"Those who survive the First Battlefield can fight on the Ancient Starry Sky Road, and apart from battles, other places there are peaceful, with no one willing to waste their strength outside the battlefield. As long as Ma Niubi and Master Liaowang aren’t foolish enough to enter the battlefield, they should be safe."
Yu Huan Shui explained.
"I’m sensing they’ll go in..."
Li Xiaobai muttered.
"Anyway, we can only wish them well. The Ancient Starry Sky Road is too far; we can’t retrieve them anytime soon."
Yu Huan Shui continued writing and drawing on Immortal Hu’s face, guiding her forward.
The road ahead was calm, and the trio easily exited the spatial channel, arriving on lush green land.
Beside them laid a Rainbow Colored Mini Altar, before them stretched vast landscapes of verdant rivers and mountains, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers in the air.
"The taste of home."
Yu Huan Shui closed his eyes, took a deep breath, a face full of bliss.
Li Xiaobai casually stored the Rainbow Colored Mini Altar in the Pure Land, a teleportation altar to the First Battlefield worth possessing, useful for revisiting Liaowang and Ma Niubi.
Daring to play tricks on him, he wouldn’t be lenient.
