Chapter 1347 Impatience
Chen Yang looked at Xiao Jin with a confused and vigilant expression.
Seeing that Chen Yang was just looking at him without speaking, Xiao Jin spoke on his own, "It's not a particularly troublesome matter. I just heard that you can repair spatial rifts."
"Help Kunlun Mountain repair one?"
Chen Yang immediately frowned.
Repairing a spatial rift?
When did Kunlun Mountain develop a spatial rift?
Chen Yang considered himself quite familiar with space. If there were any spatial fluctuations nearby, he would have surely noticed.
Xiao Jin led Chen Yang deeper into Kunlun Mountain. Soon, Chen Yang saw a wisp of mist. Although the fluctuations emanating from it were faint, Chen Yang recognized the aura.
It was indeed a spatial fluctuation.
Could it be that all the spatial rifts in the Netherworld had appeared in Kunlun Mountain?
Chen Yang walked towards the spatial rift with a sense of curiosity, wanting to see what lay on the other side.
However, he was astonished to find that he couldn't pass through it.
This spatial rift was vastly different from the ones he had encountered during patrols.
Xiao Jin came to Chen Yang's side and whispered, "I've tried several times before, but I couldn't get through. But this thing is indeed a spatial rift."
"My understanding of spatial arts is limited. Can this thing be cleared away?"
Although the spatial rift posed no immediate danger to Kunlun Mountain, that was only for now.
Who could tell what the future held?
Chen Yang pondered for a long time before slowly nodding, "I'll try first."
Just as Chen Yang gathered his spiritual energy, preparing to close the rift, he suddenly felt a powerful, mysterious force preventing him.
It was a power Chen Yang had never experienced before.
This power was so immense that Chen Yang dared not look directly at it.
Chen Yang did not force his way to close the rift. Instead, he turned to Xiao Jin and asked, "How many people know about this rift currently?"
Seeing that Chen Yang had stopped and his eyes held a trace of tension, Xiao Jin scratched his head and replied, "Only I know about it. I can travel deep into Kunlun Mountain, but other demons dare not come here."
"Is there something troublesome about it?"
Although Xiao Jin's spatial techniques were weak, he had sensed a strange power during his previous attempts.
He had thought Chen Yang could solve the problem, but it seemed even Chen Yang was unable to.
Chen Yang did not answer Xiao Jin's question, but instead shook his head, "I can't solve it at the moment. Let it be here for now. As long as it doesn't spread, there shouldn't be any danger."
Chen Yang wasn't refusing to help Xiao Jin; it was just that he was currently powerless.
Hearing this, Xiao Jin did not sigh but simply nodded, "Then let me know when you can resolve it."
As Chen Yang prepared to leave Kunlun Mountain, he surveyed the entire mountain range, gazing at the winding peaks, and felt a vague sense of unease.
After inquiring about many secrets of Kunlun Mountain from Xiao Jin, Chen Yang learned that Jiang Jiantao and Qin Yi had both visited Kunlun Mountain.
However, Xiao Jin had been too weak at the time, still in his golden egg state, so their interactions were not extensive.
...
After leaving, Chen Yang took the people from the Netherworld to many other places, even visiting the church.
The various sights and experiences of the mortal realm greatly satisfied the eyes of the cultivators at the Great Perfection of Core Formation in the Netherworld.
However, these cultivators also noticed the shortcomings of the mortal realm.
Even among cultivators, there were few who possessed a serene mind. Everyone carried a sense of restless worldly attachment.
While the Netherworld also had such tendencies, they were mostly found in the younger generation. These elders never acted impulsively to do things that would damage their cultivation.
The mortal realm was different. Perhaps due to its sparse spiritual energy and extremely slow cultivation speed, people were not as dedicated to their cultivation.
Only a very small fraction of people practiced diligently.
And among this fraction, very few persevered and achieved results.
Did this mortal realm truly hold what they needed?
No one could be sure, especially since the Lord of the Demon Prefecture was no longer present.
"From now on, if anyone wishes to visit the mortal realm, they only need to go to the Land of Hope, and the human race will arrange everything," Chen Yang said specially after escorting everyone back to the Netherworld.
There was no need for them to sneak in.
Of course, Chen Yang believed that some would still go secretly, but their numbers would be small, making it easier for the human race to handle.
After bidding farewell to the cultivators of the Netherworld, Chen Yang did not immediately arrange for Chen Shu and the others to cooperate with them.
If they wanted it, they would find him.
He arranged for Xiao Jin to stay with Chen Xing and then planned to enter seclusion.
After all, he had obtained the Heavenly Witch cultivation technique and needed to practice it as soon as possible.
However, just as Chen Yang was about to enter seclusion, the Lord of the Netherworld sought him out.
"What? You're leaving?"
Chen Yang's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at the Lord of the Netherworld.
The other party had just said they were going back... How long had it been since Chen Yang had left?
The Lord of the Netherworld chuckled, "I had originally planned to come out for a look and then return. I've had a very happy time in the Land of Hope recently."
"Besides, don't you need the Bronze Cauldron now?"
Chen Yang indeed needed the Bronze Cauldron, not just for cultivation but also to refine the Sacred Moon Divine Venerable.
Chen Yang needed the Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow within the Bronze Cauldron.
As for how the Lord of the Netherworld knew about this, Chen Yang was not surprised.
This person was the Lord of the Netherworld, and nothing in the Netherworld could be hidden from him.
"Is Fu Ling leaving with you?"
Chen Yang suddenly asked.
"No, she's not leaving. The Spiritual Domain will never be opened again, and she will remain here forever."
"Her origin has also been reinforced. Even if I'm not here, it doesn't matter. She is Fu Ling from now on, and her destiny is no longer tied to anyone."
Fu Ling, who was on the top floor at this moment, heard these words and her heart trembled.
For many years, Fu Ling had been looking for an opportunity to break free from the Spiritual Domain.
But she was born there, and her origin was always tied to the Spiritual Domain.
All she could do was leave the Spiritual Domain and live in the Spirit Town, returning periodically.
But now, things were different. The Lord of the Netherworld... had taken care of all her worries.
"Chen Yang, you and Fu Ling girl have a fated connection. If she encounters any trouble in the future, you cannot stand by and do nothing."
After saying this with a smile, the Lord of the Netherworld stood up and said, "Wait for me here for a moment. I'll go get the things for you."
At first, Chen Yang did not understand what the Lord of the Netherworld was going to retrieve. But after a few minutes, a spatial crack appeared before Chen Yang. The Bronze Cauldron, along with several strands of Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow, were pushed out by an immense force.
The Lord of the Netherworld himself did not appear.
Fu Ling, who had remained silent, transmitted a message to Chen Yang, "Put the items away. Fu Ling Restaurant is being targeted right now."
Putting aside the Bronze Cauldron, the mere aura of those few strands of Nascent Soul Spiritual Marrow was enough to attract attention.
