Chapter 1804: Chapter 20 Wuhen_3
A landscape of fluctuating, pitch-black valleys—it wouldn’t be entirely accurate to call it a valley, as all around were stones cut horizontally, looking at first glance as if flat stones were stacked together in layers.
However, his attention was imdiately drawn to the source of the sound.
It was a woman with fair skin and white hair, dressed in a dark red robe.
She appeared to be in her early twenties, with cold and stunning facial features, a gloomy expression, eyebrows like distant ink strokes, and eyes as deep and mysterious as a pool.
With a chilling, indifferent gaze mixed with a hint of curiosity, she glanced over.
The dark red of her robe seed like the color of dried blood.
In such contrast, the woman’s sowhat sickly skin appeared even more pale.
She was seated cross-legged on a flat stone platform.
There was no sign of any cultivator activity around her.
Only strands and filants, almost tangible Dao Intention emanated from her body, which she then reabsorbed instantly.
Due to this influence, the space around her seed to continually twist in silence.
Sensing the flow of these Dao Intentions, Daoist Yuanci’s gaze turned more solemn.
The woman’s eyebrows slightly raised, she looked at him, her tone neither friendly nor hostile, speaking crisply:
“Why are you stunned? Didn’t you call senior sister just now?”
Daoist Yuanci was taken aback by her change in attitude, but dared not tarry; he quickly offered her another respectful bow:
“Yes, Yuanci greets senior sister.”
He hurriedly recounted the reason for Little Cang World’s forced relocation from its old site.
“When I left back then, there was hardly any of that chaos left, almost devoured by those… World Eaters. If not for encountering the Boundary Sea Vortex you ntioned, you might not have seen at all.”
Yu Wuheng spoke casually, recalling these past events with a tone free of fear or regret, surprisingly calm to Daoist Yuanci.
“Did senior sister co here by way of that Boundary Sea Vortex?”
Yu Wuheng shook her head slightly, a cold glint passing through her eyes:
“After leaving that Boundary Sea Vortex, I wandered aimlessly until I t a strange fellow. He claid to assist my ascension. At that ti, I was rely a Saint Mage… as you call it Immortal Ascension, yet incapable of ascending to the Heavens. Hmm, he led the way and brought outside.”
Daoist Yuanci’s heart trembled upon hearing this, promptly asking:
“Did senior sister et soone… a Purple-robed Taoist with double pupils?”
Yu Wuheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, then swiftly understood:
“You encountered him too?”
Daoist Yuanci nodded. He then explained how they encountered Innate Divine Demons and the Purple-robed Taoist, and how they were forced into the Wind Disaster Area.
Yu Wuheng’s gaze turned icy:
“Hmph, that Purple-robed man was male. I never trust n; therefore, after entering this wind area with him, I didn’t follow him into that Boundary Sea Vortex but took the chance to leave. Then, I flew along with the wind until I arrived here…”
Daoist Yuanci suddenly realized, but then beca puzzled:
“May I ask senior sister’s realm?”
Upon hearing this question, Yu Wuheng’s eyes that were akin to a deep pool slightly squinted as she stared at Daoist Yuanci.
Instead of answering, she asked back:
“You earlier ntioned that old fellow took on a disciple? Male or female? Where are they?”
Daoist Yuanci hesitated, a subtle hint of sadness flickering through his eyes as he gently shook his head:
“She… she should have been reincarnated already…”
“Reincarnated?”
Yu Wuheng’s eyebrows lightly creased, her gaze now growing instinctively suspicious of Daoist Yuanci.
It was a longstanding habit of hers; perhaps because she had never t her father Yuchen, she always held an inexplicable revulsion and aversion towards n. Even Daoist Yuanci, despite introducing himself, did not dispel her doubts.
Daoist Yuanci noticed the scrutiny in her eyes and promptly reacted.
He hurriedly said:
“Please be at ease, senior sister. There are Yuanci Palace mages still present within the realm; senior sister can go and understand them at leisure…”
“No need! I’ll go and see!”
Before the words had finished.
Yu Wuheng’s dark red figure was already nowhere to be seen.
Upon the realm mbrane, a sowhat worried Wang Ba suddenly sensed a shiver, swiftly turning around to find a woman with white hair, white skin, and a dark red robe standing silently behind him, her gaze passing over him toward the interior.
He imdiately understood and quickly raised his hand:
“Wang Ba greets senior sister…”
“No need for pointless talk.”
Yu Wuheng’s tone was succinct and straightforward; then she lightly blew at the realm mbrane beneath her feet, which promptly opened a silent void capable of resisting the early stage Seventh Tier World Eater’s attack.
Yu Wuheng’s figure instantly vanished.
And only after a few breaths.
Daoist Yuanci, amidst the village of the fluctuating black stone piles, felt a stir in his heart and turned his gaze. There he saw Yu Wuheng reappear at the original spot, casually sitting down.
“You indeed didn’t lie to .”
She said calmly:
“My Primordial Spirit cultivation base, according to your terms, should be late-stage Void Refining, the Dao Domain, roughly late-stage Integration.”
“Late-stage Integration… Class VI Dao Domain?!”
Daoist Yuanci was greatly astonished.
Despite having greatly overestimated her realm, upon hearing this answer, he couldn’t help but feel shocked.
This was the highest realm of Dao Domain he had seen besides the Purple-robed Taoist.
Yet her Primordial Spirit realm was remarkably inferior to late-stage Integration.
Much more exaggerated than her prior form.
However, he quickly noticed the incongruity within this context.
With so confusion, he asked:
“It’s not that I disbelieve senior sister; it’s just that the wind power here is so strong that ordinary unified cultivators might not endure. Senior sister was rely Immortal Ascension back then, so how did you manage to traverse here? Moreover… there seem to be no suitable cultivation environnts or resources here…”
“Resources?”
Yu Wuheng’s tone was casual:
“During my travels through the Realm Sea, I picked up so treasures. As I crossed this Wind Zone, I encountered so cultivators’ remains, containing many elixirs and the like; occasionally, the stars outside this sea could be seen. They offer fast insights, as for how I could cross this wind area in my Immortal Ascension state…”
Her eyes squinted slightly, glancing at Daoist Yuanci, then she took out a palm-sized jade stone from within her dark red robe.
Casually tossed it before Daoist Yuanci:
“After traversing the Boundary Sea Vortex, I ca across a strange object resembling a black placenta. Upon opening it, I discovered this item; it can repel wind, enabling to follow the wind to arrive here.”
Daoist Yuanci’s gaze swept over this jade stone, and after rely a glance, he found his eyes unable to move away.
Within his eyes lay an unexpected surprise and shock:
“This… how is this material so similar to the Wind-Driving Staff?”
