Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 359 - 355: The Inescapable Net Closing in on Xia Feng
However, Xia Feng indeed had reason to disdain him; at such a young age, his cultivation was mysterious and unfathomable. Even though he was a Profound-tier Martial God, he could still impose a sense of pressure on Tang Yunqi.
And then there were all those stories he carried with him.
How did he obtain the Dongfang Clan’s token, and what kind of conflict did he have with the Dongfang Clan?
But most importantly, where on earth did Xia Feng get his Ancient Divine Artifact from?
Tang Yunqi didn’t dwell on it, fearing that if he stayed silent for too long he might incur Xia Feng’s displeasure.
He cleared his throat lightly, "After we pass through the vortex, just throw me out. As long as we’re within the Secret Realm, I have a way to escape from that situation."
But he paused for a moment before continuing, "However... my thing only works for one person to escape, and it will cost half a life."
"You guys..."
Xia Feng interrupted him directly, "Don’t worry about us, I have my own ways."
After he said this, Tang Yunqi’s curiosity about Xia Feng became even more apparent.
Even now, he’s been unable to force out the true strength of these two?
Clearly, it was a life-or-death situation, even he could only think of cutting off his tail to survive. Where on earth did these two get such immense luck?
While the Spirit Light Flying Boat was still struggling into the vortex, Tang Yunqi couldn’t suppress his curiosity and leaned over to Xia Feng, asking.
"Young man, I’m genuinely a bit curious, could you satisfy my curiosity a bit?"
"In the entire Infinite Divine Domain, with thousands of cultivators, I dare not claim to know them all, but I can recognize a good many."
"They might not be familiar with me, but I’m quite knowledgeable about those famous cultivators."
"But with the capabilities you possess, young man, I’ve never heard of you, which is truly peculiar."
There was indeed a hint of curiosity in his expression. To clash with the Dongfang Clan like this, surely he couldn’t have just popped out of a crack in a stone these days, could he?
However, over the years, Dongfang Clan had offended so many loose cultivators that Tang Yunqi, even for a brief moment, had no idea who might have the capability to go against the Dongfang Clan. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Xia Feng thought for a moment, then considered his words carefully before speaking.
"It’s not strange that you haven’t heard of us. We only recently ascended from the Lower Realm."
Tang Yunqi’s expression turned somewhat blank for a moment, before he wondered out loud, "Young man, what did you just say?"
"Lower Realm? Ascended? Just now?"
He could understand each word separately, but together, why couldn’t he make sense of them?
Beside him, Xia Tianming didn’t quite understand why Xia Feng was being so cordial to this young man, but he didn’t keep a stern expression either.
"We’re not yet familiar with the entire Infinite Continent. Aren’t there people who ascend from the Lower Realm here?"
Tang Yunqi’s mind whirred, as if confirming the truth in Xia Tianming’s words.
After quite a while, he confirmed that the two had no reason to deceive him about such matters.
Moreover, given his own capabilities, if these two truly were on the Infinite Continent, he would likely have heard of them.
Tang Yunqi scratched his head, "The Infinite Continent is connected to a dozen or so Lower Realms, but those who ascend each year are as rare as phoenix feathers."
"Too few. The divine power in the Lower Realm is meager; achieving the Martial God Realm through personal cultivation is near impossible."
"Demigods might be possible, but many spend their whole lives unable to break through to Martial God."
"Those who do manage to become Martial Gods and ascend usually end up as slaves to the Four Great Clans, which discourages people from wanting to ascend."
"Initially, some people from the Four Great Clans would descend to capture some slaves, but with the growing number of loose cultivators around, no one bothers anymore."
"Not to mention, these days something is wrong with the Divine Domain. The space barriers grow thicker, making it somewhat easier to reach other Divine Domains, but getting to the Lower Realm is increasingly difficult."
Xia Tianming only half-understood what he was hearing, but he listened intently when it came to the space barriers around them.
Since he mainly cultivated in the Great Dao of Space, thicker space barriers were both good and bad for him.
In front, Xia Feng, who was controlling the Control Treasure Pearl of the Spirit Light Flying Boat to forge ahead, suddenly spoke, "Did you just say going to other Divine Domains is somewhat easier?"
Tang Yunqi replied instinctively, "Relatively speaking, it’s slightly easier, but still rather difficult."
"However, with that space-type Ancient Divine Artifact you possess, it shouldn’t be that hard, right?"
After saying that, it occurred to him that with Xia Feng’s newly ascended status, how could he possibly know about other Divine Domains?
Even though Tang Yunqi had asked about their identities, it seemed not only did he not get answers to his curiosity, but his curiosity about Xia Feng and Xia Tianming grew even more intense.
They seemed to be shrouded in a thick layer of mystery, which made Tang Yunqi feel uneasy.
After a while, Xia Feng’s brow twitched slightly, "Get ready, I can vaguely sense the position of the exit ahead."
The two behind him also grew vigilant, looking ahead into the invisible void.
Tang Yunqi’s voice was light and rapid, "Young man, once we’re done with matters in the Infinite Secret Realm, you must come visit my family."
"We’re a merchant clan, and might have quite a few things that the young master would be interested in."
Xia Feng didn’t respond, instead focusing fully on the Control Treasure Pearl in his hands.
Soon, Tang Yunqi and Xia Tianming could also sense severe changes outside, as the Spirit Light Flying Boat broke free from the feeling of being grabbed by the tail, suddenly accelerating.
However, it hadn’t accelerated for long before it crashed into a dense array spread out like a spider web.
In the eyes of the core disciples from the Four Great Clans outside, this black beam of light quickly darted into the trap they had set up in advance.
It pierced through seven or eight layers of protection before finally being stopped by the strongest barriers at the back.
Even though it was halted, it traveled some distance along the intercepting array before coming to a stop.
All the core disciples’ eyes lit up; achieving such a feat could only mean this Ancient Divine Artifact was both strong and exceptionally potent.
Some of the more cunning core disciples were already quietly making their own plans.
Dongfang Baiyu’s gaze narrowed as he spoke in a deep voice, "Thank you all for your efforts today."
"The Dongfang Family will surely pay a visit to express our gratitude in the future."
His words, though framed as gratitude, sounded more like a threat. Though his face bore a smile, there was not a hint of softness in his tone.
Clearly, he was saying that this thing belonged to the Dongfang Family, and anyone daring to lay a hand on it should be prepared for the Dongfang Family to come knocking.
