Yu Ziqing calculated that if he were on land, under normal circumstances, traveling from the northwestern Almsgiving Town of Dali to the East Sea, even by a high-speed Flying Boat, using Spirit Jade generously and allowing the boat to operate in overdrive, without avoiding the Imperial City or Sect locations, it would still take ten days of flying.
When he was in the Abyss, he followed the Nu River downstream for at most one or two thousand miles, thinking the connected water body was a large lake in the north of Dali.
That freshwater lake was deep enough and vast, seeming pretty reliable at first glance.
How did it connect to the East Sea?
Moreover, it was right within the range affected by the Demon God Tomb.
Currently, the entire East Sea had this one place where no demon beast or Sea Clan mber could be found.
This ti, Yu Ziqing learned a lesson. The places connected by the Abyss had no symtry; where the rift led was utterly random.
However, upon further thought, he seed to have discovered sothing significant.
This was a one-day shortcut across the entire Dali.
Thinking of this, Yu Ziqing hurriedly dove back into the sea, locating the small underwater fissure, identified the direction, and buried a Jade Scroll as a beacon in a conspicuous undersea mountain ridge.
In the vast ocean, this would help him find the spot later.
After doing this, Yu Ziqing did not dare to wander aimlessly anymore.
He could determine the cardinal directions, knowing that heading westwards would eventually lead to the shore.
But right now, he didn't know his exact location. If the position of the Demon God Tomb was deeper than where he was now, it would be fine. Going back would be no problem.
If he was further east than the Demon God Tomb, heading west might lead him right into it, bringing him face to face with that restlessly deceased demon.
Going back through the rift was out of the question.
The Black Sky Devil Mother was laying eggs nonstop and had been battling fiercely with the leader of the white sky Devil, changing forms, indicating they had unleashed true fire, unlikely to stop until one perished.
While stoking the fire was successful, he estimated it would be a while before he could return the sa way.
With so many Black Sky Devils, on top of witnessing the Bear Demon earlier, it was clear why there were all sorts of strange things among Black Sky Devils.
In his human form, gray-black skin covered with Devil Patterns, he was among the more handso, and no one would suspect he wasn't a Black Sky Devil.
Keeping the conflicts within the Devil faction was not a problem.
Yu Ziqing waited in the sa spot for two hours until he sensed a call.
Upon entering the Seventh Floor, Yang looked Yu Ziqing up and down, letting out a long sigh.
"How did you end up in the East Sea?"
"It's a long story, but I wanted to ask you to help figure out roughly where I am."
"Go on."
"There are no sea demons, no demon beasts, and not even large fish in the sea. Although there's no wind, the waves are huge, as if the sea harbors intense anger, continuously venting..."
"Alright, I roughly know where you are. Hold on."
Yang left a word, then went offline.
Yu Ziqing thought for a mont, flew high into the sky, and gazed afar, observing the surroundings.
Nothing but sea, no matter where he looked.
After a day, Lou Huai sniffed the air.
"Boss, sothing's surfacing from the sea! It's strange and even stronger than us."
As soon as Lou Huai spoke, a deep blue sphere slowly rose from the sea, gradually dissipating, with Yang standing on the water, looking up at Yu Ziqing.
"Standing so high, are you in a hurry to die?"
When Yu Ziqing descended, Yang imdiately questioned him.
"I was afraid you wouldn't find . It's better to be visible than to be sensed from afar, right?"
"I just arrived at the East Sea, how did you end up here as well?"
"It's a long story. I entered an Abyssal Rift, found a rift on a yellow river over there, and erged here in the East Sea."
Yu Ziqing didn't go into detail, and Yang's eyelids drooped slightly, his eyes turning into pitch black from sheep pupils.
He glanced at Lou Huai and instantly saw several talismans appear above and below Lou Huai, with one Devil Suppression Talisman pressing on his face.
Lou Huai was imdiately suppressed, unable to move, as if a mountain weighed on him, unable even to disperse his form.
These Devil Suppression Talismans were initially ant to suppress in Freedom Heaven, and being able to suppress boxes in Silver Lake for two thousand years without damage proved their lasting power. They were genuine good stuff.
Lou Huai took five and wasn't crushed to death imdiately, which showed Yang's leniency, intending to inquire first.
"Where did this guy co from? He looks like soone's incarnation, yet he's a Devil."
"It's a long story. Do you know Lin Fu? This guy helped Lin Fu advance to the Eighth Tier, then Lin Fu severed him as an incarnation, wanting to follow , saying he wished to tread a righteous path..."
Yang furrowed his brow, tactically leaning back, examining Lou Huai up and down.
"Soulless, indeed like an incarnation, his aura is more righteous than most cultivators. Did he practice so orthodox Qi Refinent thods?"
"It's the orthodox White Sun Holy Scripture."
"Goodness..." Yang's facial features nearly squeezed together.
Another unexpected, unheard experience added to the mix.
Since getting to know Yu Ziqing, occurrences like this had not been rare.
