"By the way, have you heard that the Young Master of this family will be arriving tomorrow apparently?"
Feng Ye asked after Ling Tian nodded for him to sit down. Feng Xiao also took a seat.
"Something like that I heard." Ling Tian nodded indifferently. He doesn't care about this family, let alone its Young Master. Once Xuanyuan Ling and Shin Wei recover from their injuries in the majority, they will leave this place to go to a place with higher spiritual energy to recover and increase strength faster.
"I also heard that in addition to returning from the Profound Sky Academy, he will also participate in the city's Young Genius Tournament." This time, Feng Xiao spoke up, saying what he knew thanks to Feng Rao telling him almost everything that was important.
"Tournament?" Ling Tian raised his eyebrow slightly before lowering it again.
"Yes. Almost all of the youths in this city return from that academy to participate in the tournament and show off their current strengths. Although that's on the surface, I understand that it also has some sort of relationship with the Profound Sky Academy." Feng Xiao said.
"Do you know this academy?" Ling Tian asked, wanting to know a little about this academy. This city's tournament clearly did not enter their eyes; it would only be children and youths trying to show off and gain reputation through these battles.
Ling Tian is sure that youths from the Chi Gathering Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage would participate, based on the average strength here.
"We have had some contacts in the past with this academy, but nothing more. My grandfather knows more about it than I do." Feng Xiao shrugged his shoulders, showing that he did not attach so much importance to this academy.
"This academy is in the imperial capital of this territory, and is run mainly by the Ji family. Although we have had some contacts in the past with the leader of this family and thus the Academy when they requested our help, we don't have a relationship per se." Feng Ye spoke when he saw the slight curiosity in Ling Tian. Even he did not put this academy or prestigious family in his eyes.
"Being an imperial family should have some strong Masters." Ling Tian lifted the cup gently.
"It has several Masters in the Nascent Soul realm, while the head of this family is in the Body Condensation realm." Feng Ye nodded and immediately added, "Although it still could not be considered a superpower, it is still a powerful family in this territory."
Feng Ye's voice was calm, speaking as if this family was not of much importance...
"Wasn't it better to ask this Ji family to help you guys look for what you need?" Ling Tian smirked faintly.
With such strength and power of this imperial family, it would be much easier to search for the herbs than using the help of the Feng family, who didn't even have cultivators in the Golden Core realm.
"We thought so at first, but somehow we arrived at this place first, with the patriarch of this family meeting us by chance and ending up here." Feng Ye spoke and drank some tea Shin Wei had given them.
"Did you guys travel in a teleportation formation?" Ling Tian's expression finally revealed mild expectation.
On cultivation worlds, it was normal for there to be all sorts of formations, arrays and arrays to move around, especially between far-flung territories that would take decades to reach. These types of formations were of a high level and only grandmasters who had reached the pinnacle of knowledge and understanding could do so.
If they could reach the territory of Heaven's realm in a short time using these formations, it would be better for them.
"We were planning to travel in a formation, but we ended up using a rune." Feng Ye did not hide it.
"Teleportation rune?" Ling Tian was slightly surprised to see that they had this type of rune. It wasn't very easy to get this kind of powerful tool, let alone make it.
"Yes. This way we shorten the time to move faster and find the medicinal herbs." Feng Ye nodded.
"I see." Ling Tian nodded quietly and then asked, "Any news of this Grass?"
"None. We have investigated around the city this day and found nothing." Feng Xiao replied with a bitter expression. They really needed to find that medicinal flower!
"Why don't you go to the Nightmare Valley? You can probably find something there." Ling Tian recalled the place where he had first arrived, encountering the Celestial Tiger and killing it with a slash easily. On his tour, he had seen the vast and lush fauna and flora, so there would be various kinds of medicinal and spiritual grass.
Ling Tian had also not forgotten the mysterious place that was apparently the Celestial Tiger's home, the cave where he left the formation flags to hide it.
"With your current levels, you wouldn't have any problems."
Ling Tian had only encountered a few spirit beasts at the Golden Core level. The other beasts were below this realm, so it would be like a leisurely stroll for both of them.
"That we heard from the patriarch, that there seems to be a lot of medicinal and spiritual grasses in that place." Feng Xiao remembered what Feng Rao had said. He also knew that with his current level, he would have no problem entering this dangerous place.
"In fact, I was planning to go to this place and meanwhile Xiao'er would stay here in case of any news." Feng Ye added at once and asked Ling Tian, "I don't know if little brother needs any medicinal plants as well." His gaze swept over both Shin Wei and Xuanyuan Ling, realizing that both of them should have injuries and have not fully recovered. The pallor on their faces confirmed that.
"Thank you for the consideration, but we have what we need to recover. We simply need time for the recovery of our aura and strength." Shin Wei nodded gratefully. Both he and Xuanyuan Ling had medicinal pills to recover.
The essence burning of both their cultivation strength and blood would slowly recover. Their arriving at a place with vast spiritual energy would also speed up their recovery.
"I see." Feng Ye nodded and did not pursue the matter. If they needed help, he could provide some medicinal pills if he could.
"Then we'll be retiring. Anything can tell Xiao'er if I can't be found." Feng Ye took his leave together with Feng Xiao and they went to their personal courtyard.
"Looks like they have a big background."
Shortly after the two of them left, Shin Wei said with some surprise. That a Great Ascension expert and a young man of the same generation as Xuanyuan Ling with such a level of cultivation would appear here was really unusual.
"According to them they come from the Heaven realm." Ling Tian replied, reminding them both about the territories of this world and where the two of them came from.
"Ling'er, don't you want to participate in this tournament? It would be a good way to compare your combat experience and even have some small enlightenment."
Soon after explaining, Ling Tian changed the topic and asked Xuanyuan Ling with a small smile. He too wanted to see the style and experience of this grand disciple of his.
"The grandmaster wants me to participate in this tournament?" Xuanyuan Ling asked while blinking in surprise.
With her current cultivation level and experience, it would be like child's play to participate in this tournament.
"Besides, you could restrict some of your cultivation to push yourself a bit. It's not a bad thing at all to participate in these kinds of battles. Sure, if you're willing, if not, there's no problem at all." Ling Tian smiled without any coercion. He wasn't going to force anyone into something they didn't want to do.
"Mmmh, I'll think about it." Xuanyuan Ling nodded her head after a few seconds. Although she herself had received training from all of her Masters, especially the women, she still lacked a bit of confrontation with those of her generation.
Xuanyuan Ling is smart after all and she partly understood Ling Tian's intention.
"Going somewhere, Master?" Shin Wei asked when he saw Ling Tian stand up.
"I'm going to the Nightmare Valley, I need to check something." Ling Tian affirmed. After thinking about it, it would be better if he checked that strange cave as soon as possible. Ling Tian was only waiting for Shin Wei to wake up and that way, he could take care of Xuanyuan Ling in the meantime.
"Do you need us to accompany you, master?" Shin Wei asked. Xuanyuan Ling also had that expression to know.
Ling Tian calmly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'll just check something that caught my eye and hurry back if I finish early. You two take care of healing and regaining energy. Once you feel better, we'll leave for the territory of the Heaven realm."
"Understood, Master." Shin Wei nodded as did Xuanyuan Ling. They were at ease as Ling Tian would have no trouble in this place thanks to his current strength.
Ling Tian patted Shin Wei's shoulder before disappearing in front of the two of them, creating a few small ripples in the air.
His path, the Nightmare Valley.
