The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 3476 The mountaintop is certainly the destination, but the scenery along the way should not be missed.
"According to the map, this city is called Cloud Sky City. It's the largest city of cultivators in a vast area, gathering a large number of powerful Celestial Clan members. We can go and take a look..."

Ning Hesheng held the map, looked at the Sky City floating in mid-air ahead, and explained the situation in a low voice.

Lin Chen nodded: "Then let's go take a look."

Two years have passed since the ambush on Zhou Yunfei. During these two years, Ning Hesheng led Lin Chen westward to inquire about the spirit of the Great Dao.

Two months after Zhou Yunfei's accident, Zhou Hao wanted to check on his grandson's progress in absorbing the spirit of the Great Dao. He entered Wuxin Valley and then discovered that Zhou Yunfei had disappeared.

The truth came out.

Zhou Hao was furious. A living quasi-saint had actually vanished into thin air in the Enlightenment Valley, which was sealed by an array.

Zhou Yunfei couldn't have disappeared without a reason. Thinking of the Dao Spirit on his body, Zhou Hao naturally guessed the truth.

Someone risked everything to attack Zhou Yunfei in Wuxin Valley for the Dao Spirit within him, and succeeded!
check!
Everyone entering and leaving Wuxin Valley is recorded. Not many core disciples of the sect entered Wuxin Valley in the past two months. Everyone was gathered together and questioned one by one, and then it was discovered that An Miaomeng could not be contacted.

Upon further investigation, all suspicions were placed on An Miaomeng.

She returned in a hurry, entered Wuxin Valley ahead of time, and left shortly after Zhou Yunfei entered. Then she left the sect and disappeared.

The three saints of Qiyun Sect gathered together and used various methods. The only thing they could confirm was that An Miaomeng was still alive, but they still could not find her.

Zhou Hao was unwilling to give up. Thinking of the conflict between Ning Hesheng and Zhou Yunfei, he asked the sect leader to take out the token left by Lin Chen and summon the two back.

After some questioning, Ning Hesheng looked confused and ultimately didn't get any results.

Ning Hesheng has no connection to this matter. He is the most powerful sub-saint in the Qiyun Sect, so it is impossible for him to use soul-searching or other methods against Zhou Yunfei just because Zhou Yunfei is missing and because he had a conflict with Zhou Yunfei.

After finishing the questioning, Lin Chen led Ning Hesheng away from the sect via a star jump to continue their journey.

The Zhou Yunfei incident has now come to a complete end.

For two years, the two traveled westward, covering a great distance and witnessing many wonders of the Celestial Realm, such as the giant race whose bodies were over a hundred meters tall and whose skin was like stone, the Celestial Craftsmen race whose bodies were about one meter tall and who were skilled in crafting various magical treasures, and the half-human, half-beast orc race.

Aside from races, there are all sorts of cities, some floating in the sky, some perched atop cliffs, some at the bottom of abysses, and some even underwater—they are all incredibly magical.

The Cloud City before us is a giant cone-shaped city suspended in the sky. According to the introduction, this city is a city for cultivators, providing them with all kinds of necessities, not only the purchase or exchange of cultivation resources, but also many other aspects.

For example, eating rare delicacies from all over the world, drinking fine wines, sleeping with beauties from all ethnic groups, and purchasing slaves of varying abilities, etc.

Of course, this also includes gathering information about the celestial realm.

Such a city of monks does not allow other races to enter freely, except, of course, for slaves who follow their masters.

At the entrance of Yuntian City, Ning Hesheng paid the entrance fee for two people.

"Remember, slaves must follow their masters. If a slave appears alone, they will be considered ownerless and will be arrested or killed by the city guards." Ning Hesheng led Lin Chen into Yuntian City and found an inn.

Ning Hesheng asked the shop assistants to order a table of delicious food from a restaurant outside, and then he and Lin Chen had a big meal in the room.

The reason they don't eat at restaurants is that if the Celestials dine at the same table as their slaves, it would be considered a loss of dignity for the Celestials and would invite retaliation from others.

Therefore, if the two wanted to eat something delicious, they would first stay at a hotel and have the waiter order the food and have it delivered to their room, thus avoiding any trouble.

This is the world of the Celestials. When one has no power to overturn or resist the existing rules, one can only accept the rules and avoid conflict.

After eating, drinking, and resting well, the two left the hotel and began to stroll around.

Although Lin Chen had a clear goal, which was to find the spirit of the Great Dao, he was not in a hurry.

The Celestial Realm has many mysteries, and he needs to slow down and experience them properly.

Advancing is important, but living is not just about cultivation.

When people climb to the top, they do so to reach the highest point and have a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains, but the scenery along the way is equally wonderful and worth seeing.

Although the realms of immortals and demons are currently under attack from the Lord of the Abyss, Lin Chen entrusted the kryptonite to Zhuang Susu to take back when he left. The demon lords will inevitably be cautious, and the Lord of the Abyss will not dare to descend at any time. Their advance will inevitably be very slow, or even stagnant.

When the Lord of the Abyss was dealing with the Five Saints, he happened to be swept by the divine sense of the Heavenly God, who seemed to be searching for him. This would obviously put him under great psychological pressure, and he would probably not dare to show his face again for a short period of time.

Devouring both the immortal and demon realms is important, but if he were captured by the gods, he would be doomed and die. Given the choice between gaining something and dying completely, he would inevitably choose to hide safely.

For beings of the Abyss Lord's level, time is negligible. They can easily meditate, gain insights, or even slumber for decades or even centuries. So, while the situation in the Immortal Realm may seem urgent, it is actually not that urgent.

Ning Hesheng led Lin Chen into the Heavenly God Alliance building.

The Celestial Alliance is essentially a cultivator alliance, open to all members of the Celestial race. Within the Celestial Alliance, there are numerous sub-systems, including a mission system, an information trading system, a resource trading system, an alchemy system, a weapon crafting system, and so on, making it a very comprehensive organization.

After two years of travel, Lin Chen has gained a deeper understanding of the Celestial Realm.

For example, the magical artifacts used by the trial participants we encountered before—each powerful artifact was imbued with the spirit of a demon beast, and the concept of the spirit of a demon beast is actually the same as the spirit of an artifact.

Having a magical artifact fused with the spirit of a demon beast will greatly enhance its power. In battle, the artifact's power equals its original power plus the power of the demon beast's spirit, resulting in an astonishing effect.

For example, Zhu Qidong of the Qiyun Sect, whose flying sword was originally known for its speed, and when the flying sword was fused with the demonic beast Silent Bat, its speed was increased even further. Moreover, it was special in breaking through barriers, making it difficult for opponents to keep up in battle.

The magic treasures on Lin Chen's body, the Linglong Pagoda, possessed a spirit, and its power was naturally no less than these magic treasures that fused with the spirits of demonic beasts. However, although the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp was an innate spiritual treasure, it did not have a spirit, which made Lin Chen have some thoughts.

If we find a powerful demon beast spirit and fuse it with the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp, wouldn't the power of the Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Lamp be even greater?
