╠ Land of Luminous Essence ╣
_Yellow Dusk City, Central Region_
Xuan Yun was keeping an eye on Ling Xiaolong but in a carefree manner so as not to alert him.
Not long after, his expression froze. After a while, he muttered, "Damn... Five Masters of Chaos are coming just to subdue a single Celestial Sovereign of Chaos!"
Xuan Yun could not be more shocked. He was stunned and thought that the Tower of Wisdom was overreacting.
However, he was completely unaware that it was him underestimating Ling Xiaolong, not the Tower of Wisdom overestimating Ling Xiaolong's strength. He doesn't know the terror Ling Xiaolong's name once possessed.
It was clear that the Tower of Wisdom used some sort of trick to inform Xuan Yun what to do next.
Xuan Yun's job was simple, he just had to stay far from Ling Xiaolong and keep an eye on him.
.....
For the next two days, Ling Xiaolong and Hou Fei went to the Dark Forest Mountain Valley and looked around.
Ling Xiaolong had his suspicion at first but now he was sure that the pure energy found in the air of Dark Forest Mountain Valley belonged to him.
Hou Fei showed interest. He wanted to stay here and absorb the pure energy. This was an opportunity and he must obtain benefits from it.
Ling Xiaolong, on the other hand, had no interest in this pure energy. Since Hou Fei wanted to stay here and cultivate, he said goodbye and left.
After that, he spent a few days exploring various ruins and even a Mystic Realm. When he was certain there was nothing left for him to explore in this land, he decided to depart from this Land.
Upon asking around, he discovered a market where he could board a merchant flying ship to visit other lands. However, the earliest flying ship was set to depart in a month.
With nothing here to capture Ling Xiaolong's interest, he found it challenging to endure a month of inactivity.
Ultimately, he decided to enter the void on his own and keep teleporting. There would undoubtedly come a day when he would encounter a flying ship or a new land.
Thus, on this day, he suddenly disappeared from the Land of Luminous Essence.
When Ling Xiaolong suddenly disappeared, Xuan Yun was astonished. He had no idea why Ling Xiaolong suddenly disappeared or where he went. He panicked. If he could not find Ling Xiaolong's whereabouts, he was afraid he'd be severely punished by the Tower of Wisdom.
After all, he was given a simple task—to keep an eye on Ling Xiaolong. But now, Ling Xiaolong was nowhere to be seen.
Frustrated, he spent an entire day contemplating what to convey to those five Masters of Chaos who would arrive in this land in the next two days at most.
In the end, he decided to fabricate an excuse. He chose to inform those Masters of Chaos that Ling Xiaolong had left the Land of Luminous Essence. He couldn't pursue Ling Xiaolong because he was waiting for their arrival; the five Masters of Chaos.
Xuan Yun had no inkling that his seemingly random excuse was, in fact, the truth.
.....
It has been three days since Ling Xiaolong left the Land of Luminous Essence.
The void of chaos was filled with violent Chaos Energy, however, they had no effect on Ling Xiaolong anymore because he was already a Celestial Sovereign of Chaos now.
Teleporting in the void continuously for three days, it wasn't as if Ling Xiaolong hadn't encountered any Land, but those were all either low-leveled Lands or Lifeless Lands. With Ling Xiaolong's current strength, there was no need for him to enter either of these Lands.
He had never encountered a single high-leveled Land with Masters of Chaos being a native.
In the void, Ling Xiaolong had also encountered many Void Beasts. Some of these beasts were powerful, some were weak, while the rest were only equivalent to warriors below the Celestial Awakening Realm.
Ling Xiaolong could easily kill these beasts, however, what was the point in doing so?
There was no need for him to attack Void Beasts. All he did was take a close look at them and teleport away.
But it was not like Ling Xiaolong did not face any danger in the void.
Among the dangers he came across, Ling Xiaolong had encountered a fatal Master of Chaos-leveled Void Beasts. He had no choice but to quickly teleport away at that time.
.....
Another few days passed as he kept teleporting in the void.
On this day, Ling Xiaolong suddenly saw a source of light not far away where he appeared. It was a huge ship sailing in the void like a prehistoric giant.
"That... Could it be a merchant ship?"
Ling Xiaolong was overjoyed.
The distance between each Land is very far and coupled with the dangers of Void Beasts, unless one's strength reached the realm of Master of Chaos, no one would dare to step into the void alone, without flying ship.
"If I can board this merchant ship, I will naturally be able to find a Land with life."
"But I wonder if the Land of Celestial Glory is on the voyage route of this merchant ship or not?"
It was only a matter of time before Ling Xiaolong would visit the Land of Celestial Glory. After all, Ling Xiaolong #1 had told him to go to this Land and meet a Divine Weapon Craftsman, and make him fuse the Infinity Edge Blade and Celestial Glory Blade into one, upgrading it.
With the intention to board the ancient merchant ship, Ling Xiaolong instantly flew towards it at an incredible speed. This time, he did not use teleportation skill, afraid that it would startle the warriors on that merchant ship.
.....
_Sun Family's Merchant Ship_
In the first cabin of the ship...
One of the warriors suddenly exclaimed, "Someone is approaching. Their speed is very fast!"
Behind the man, a woman raised her eyebrows. "Someone's coming? Are you sure it's a person and not a Void Beats?"
That man stopped for a few seconds, and then nodded his head, saying, "Yes, I'm sure."
Before the woman could say anything, the old man in white sitting next to her suddenly pointed his finger in front of him. In an instant, a light screen appeared in front of the old man.
On that layer of light, a huge white dot was flickering, and within a certain range of the white dot, there was a blue dot rapidly approaching.
Seeing this, The old man nodded: "It is indeed a person approaching. If it's a Void Beast, then it shouldn't be a blue dot, but a red dot."
"A person, huh? How dare they roam around in the void? Looks like that person has quite confidence in his strength. But... Why is he suddenly approaching our merchant ship? Could that person be a Space Pirate?"
The woman frowned slightly. She did not know why a person was approaching after all.
The white-robed old man laughed heartily. "Don't worry, Miss. I am a Peak Celestial Sovereign of Chaos, after all. As long as that warrior is not a Master of Chaos, if they show any ill intentions, I will definitely teach them a lesson. Furthermore, our Sun Family's Merchant Ship isn't something to be trifled with. It has a very strong defense. Even a Master of Chaos below the Tenth Level would find it difficult to break its defenses. Unless a large number of Masters of Chaos below the Tenth Level attack, the defense of our Sun Family's Merchant Ship won't break."
This was clearly the first time the woman had left her Land, and that's why she instinctively felt uneasy about being in this void for a few months straight and suddenly finding a person approaching.
Hearing the white-robed elder's words, she let out a sigh of relief.
The white-robed old man noticed the expression on the woman's face and nodded in satisfaction.
The Sun Family's Merchant Ship discovered Ling Xiaolong approaching, and its speed suddenly decreased.
When Ling Xiaolong approached the Sun Family's Merchant Ship, an aged voice sounded out from within the ship and entered Ling Xiaolong's ears.
"Stop right there. May I know what business you have with my merchant ship?"
Ling Xiaolong's expression did not change, and he spoke with a mild tone, "I was lost in the void, so I wanted to board the Merchant Ship and return to a Land. I wonder if it's possible?"
"Lost?" Inside the merchant ship, the white-robed old man raised his eyebrows, and said to the woman beside him, "Miss, what do you think?"
The woman thought for a few seconds and said lightly, "Although the other party is only one person, we can't be careless."
"If the pirates specifically arranged for him to be a spy on our merchant ship, then our merchant ship will be in danger very soon."
The old man nodded approvingly. He said, "That's right. We can't be careless."
