The edge of the transport ship.
Tian Yun hurriedly picked up the wooden dicine case and strapped it to his back.
His appearance hadn't changed at all since he first t Chen Xun—youthful, with clear eyes and ink-black hair like light clouds in the mountains, smooth and flowing, cascading down from his head.
Tian Yun's stature wasn't tall, making him easily overlooked in a crowd.
Despite having endured thousands of years of battles beyond the boundary, his eyes showed no numbness or indifference; instead, they still held a look of anticipation for the unknown.
Beside him was a small mound, which made the distant cultivators of the immortal kingdom's military court twitch their eyelids—Tomb of Tian Yun!
This person was unintentionally saved by the immortal kingdom's cultivators, rumored to have been dug out from a grave. On the day of a great battle, he was openly repairing a grave at the front lines, and the outco was predictable...
Under the mana bombardnt that could destroy heaven and earth, Tian Yun, who was halfway through building the grave, was buried on the spot!
The latter part of the process was even skipped for him, and he was instantly buried.
Yet, he survived the disaster, dug out by a powerful figure. When asked about his origins, he inexplicably ntioned Fu Shi, claiming to be here for training on the battlefield beyond the boundary...
Goodness, such words were sowhat arrogant. Even the immortal kingdom's military court, the myriad clans' powerhouses, and major forces dared not let their juniors co for training, yet the Fu Shi Sect sent a junior here.
But within two days of these words, Ling Kongshen seed to have received so news and personally ca from the immortal kingdom to the battlefield beyond the boundary to take this person back, without disclosing any reasons.
"Tian Yun." A young man approached from not far away, looking both amused and exasperated—it was Ling Jun.
"General Ling!" Tian Yun waved in response, smiling broadly without a hint of embarrassnt. "This treasure ship lacks a vitality coordinate case, and with so many buildings, I took a detour."
After speaking, he glanced around. This wasn't a place where one could walk on air; the grand formations were rampant, otherwise, he wouldn't have lost his way.
"I didn't expect you to know about vitality coordinates."
Ling Jun shook his head with a smile, surprised that such common knowledge was unexpected for this person. "The old general has invited you, co with ."
"Alright." Tian Yun shook himself off, still smiling as he explained, "When I first ca to the Heavenly lody Immortal Kingdom, I t a few fellow Daoists who told I could buy vitality coordinates."
"Mm." Ling Jun nodded ticulously. "Actually, there are many ways to discern directions, I can teach you."
"Great, General Ling!" Tian Yun's eyes lit up, nodding vigorously.
The two then headed toward the bow of the ship, passing by a teleportation array.
A stick of incense later.
A strong wind rose at the bow, fluttering the immortal kingdom's banners. There were no protective formations here, and strong figures with cold gazes stood in all directions, only allowing Tian Yun to pass after a glance.
General Ling was considered one of the pillars of the Heavenly lody Immortal Kingdom. Coming to the Wild Heaven Region, naturally, many strong figures followed both openly and secretly, as this was not a peaceful place.
Even with such a grand entourage, they still encountered a few reckless things along the way.
"Tian Yun!" Ling Kongshen shouted with a robust voice, then turned with his hands behind his back, his eyes bright. "Why do you always get lost?! No wonder you dared to run to the front lines!"
"I think you didn't intentionally go to the front lines, but got lost!"
"Heh... hehe."
Tian Yun chuckled awkwardly, walking toward the bow, cupping his hands in salute. "Greetings, General Ling."
Seeing that the person had been safely delivered, Ling Jun stood on the periphery, surrounded by soundproof formations, never curious about the secrets Tian Yun might hold.
The old and the young stood quietly at the bow, undisturbed by anyone around.
Ling Kongshen scrutinized Tian Yun closely. "Boy, do you know why I brought you all the way to the Five Aggregates Sect in the Wild Heaven Region?"
"To escort vast immortal resources!" Tian Yun replied firmly, head bowed.
Bang!!
Before he finished speaking, a spray of crimson blood shot through the air, tracing a perfect arc.
Tian Yun let out a miserable "Wow!" as Ling Kongshen punched him in the face, laughing heartily:
"Your physical body needs more training, boy. At the Great Ascension stage, you can form a Body of Rules, yet you don't have one?!"
"General, I... I'm afraid my life... my life is short."
Tian Yun clutched his chest, his face turning a liver color, his speech becoming stamred and weak, as if Ling Kongshen's punch had struck his internal ridians.
Veins bulged on his forehead, and he seed to be feeling the aftereffects, causing Ling Jun to wince, thinking, is that really necessary...
Ling Kongshen's laughter echoed at the bow, as he rubbed his right hand with his left, suddenly speaking solemnly: "The battlefield beyond the boundary is not suitable for you. I brought you here with no intention of letting you return."
"What?" Tian Yun's eyes widened in disbelief. "General, aren't we here to escort the immortal kingdom's resources? How will my fellow disciples find if I'm so far away?!"
"Haven't you built many graves along the way? Hahaha..." Ling Kongshen laughed again. "I'm sure your fellow disciples will follow them."
Tian Yun suddenly understood, glancing back. "The general is right. Along the way, I've erected graves on each treasure ship, so there should be no problem."
Moreover, he wasn't suddenly lost; it was just that all fifty colossal treasure ships looked identical and were connected by grand formations, making it difficult to distinguish north from south, east from west.
Hearing this, Ling Kongshen's laughter grew even louder, leaving Tian Yun puzzled about what the general found so amusing.
"Boy, have you ever heard of the Five Aggregates Sect?" Ling Kongshen shifted the topic, no longer dwelling on the matter. "I ca to et the Dao Ancestor of the Five Elents."
"Immortal." Tian Yun replied firmly.
Despite his words, his deanor always gave the impression of being not very bright, though the wooden dicine case on his back added a touch of mysterious depth.
Ling Kongshen nodded lightly, his gaze already fixed on the distance. "Such a domineering figure, I've long been eager to et, so I sought a favor from my Heavenly lody Ancestor."
"Then..." Tian Yun hesitated, wanting to ask why bring a junior, as the Five Aggregates Sect wasn't Fu Shi.
"When you were on the battlefield beyond the boundary, you seed to be searching for a way out. Where do you want to go?" Ling Kongshen asked aningfully. "Now in this Wild Heaven Region, there's no need to be cautious with your words."
The reason this special region was unique was not just because it was filled with the power of the Great Dao and vast territory.
But because it couldn't connect to star coordinates, immortal sound arrays, and other things, so inexplicable hands naturally couldn't reach them silently.
Tian Yun's pupils beca increasingly clear, his deanor innocent. "General, you saved , and since the matter is past, there's no need to hide it."
"Mm." Ling Kongshen nodded, his gaze growing more serious.
