Chapter 75 A Hundred Million Miles Away

The Free and Unfettered Sect is one of the most powerful forces in the Southern Region. Within the sect, there is a super domain gate that is open year-round, allowing one to travel directly over tens of millions of miles.

However, even a super domain gate of this level is not enough to reach the Northern Region; only a domain gate that can teleport hundreds of millions of miles away can do so.

This distance is terrifyingly far, spanning hundreds of millions of miles. In the Southern Region, apart from the holy lands and aristocratic families, only a few major powers can manage to cross it in one go.

After arriving at the Xiaoyao Sect, one must pass through the Central Region to reach the Northern Region. Fortunately, this route has already been opened, and the Purple Mansion Holy Land in the Central Region is the place to pass through.

Qi Zhe and Duan De have now left the Yao Guang Holy Land and are heading towards the Xiaoyao Sect. They have changed their appearances along the way and are safe and sound.

On his way to the Free and Unfettered Sect, Qi Zhe was also studying the wondrous techniques of the Ruthless Great Emperor. The Myriad Transformations Sacred Technique and the Flying Immortal Technique truly broadened his horizons.

"The unparalleled secret technique, the Flying Immortal Technique, is truly astonishing in its offensive power!" Qi Zhe was shocked even just by touching it.

The Ruthless Immortal's Flying Immortal Technique is a top-ranking offensive divine art under this starry sky. Its attack power is unparalleled in the world, and even a saintly body at the same realm would find it difficult to withstand!

Hua Yunfei once used the Flying Immortal Technique to severely injure Ye Fan, who had just achieved the minor perfection of the Sacred Body. Ye Fan's internal organs were shattered, his bones were broken, and his sacred blood splattered everywhere.

It should be noted that Ye Fan had already stepped into the Dragon Transformation stage at that time, and could fight against the peak of the Dragon Transformation realm under the Eight Forbidden Domains. His physical body could even injure a half-step Great Power.

This indirectly proves the offensive power of the Flying Immortal Technique. It would be difficult to find a secret technique in the world that can compare with it, and even the Fighting Secret Technique might not be feasible.

The Myriad Transformations Sacred Technique was designed to counter the Fighting Secret Technique, and it is said to turn divine techniques into useless ones. Even the ever-changing Fighting Secret Technique is not immune to its effects.

If combined with the All-Encompassing Secret, Qi Zhe estimated that few of the world's geniuses could withstand him, allowing him to stand out among the younger generation.

Duan De's mastery of Dao patterns also greatly benefited him. The Dao patterns he obtained from the Celestial Venerable had endless uses and were far more profound than Qi Zhe had imagined.

However, Duan De was not as happy as him. He kept cursing and grumbling every day because Qi Zhe refused to pass on the other three volumes of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art to him.

The small town outside Xiaoyao Gate was filled with cultivators heading to the Northern Region. Qi Zhe and Duan De, whose expression was icy, walked among them.

"The opening time of the Xiaoyao Sect's grand formation is uncertain. It won't open until there are enough cultivators. I think we'll have to wait a few more days," Qi Zhe said.

Having been here for only half a day, he had already learned a lot of information, including quite a bit about the great formation. According to the people around him, it would not be activated for another three days.

Duan De nodded solemnly upon hearing this. Ever since he arrived here, he had been acting aloof and rarely spoke, leaving Qi Zhe speechless.

However, Qi Zhe was too lazy to pay attention to him at this time and wandered around the city on his own. It was a very prosperous place with many cultivators bartering.

"Come and see! This freshly unearthed Bauhinia Bronze can be forged into an unparalleled divine weapon!"

"Does anyone want to refine medicine? A 1,400-year-old herb, an essential ingredient for refining longevity elixirs!"

"."

The small town was filled with vendors selling their wares, and although none of the items were particularly valuable, they added a lively and bustling atmosphere to the place.

Qi Zhe lingered in front of the various stalls, looking for any bargains to be found, while Duan De, who had been following him, scoffed at this.

"Boy, if there were any treasures, they would have been taken long ago. How could it be your turn?" Duan De, who had transformed into a bearded man, was trembling with his full beard.

Qi Zhe didn't care and said without turning his head, "What do you know? There are often rare treasures hidden in these kinds of stalls, just waiting for a destined person to take them away."

Duan De rolled his eyes as he listened, and not far away a group of young people in fine clothes were passing by. Someone heard this and cursed, "Another idiot!"

This group of people were all dressed in fine clothes, clearly indicating their extraordinary origins. Qi Zhe only needed to glance at them briefly to discover that they came from the Northern Region, and were cultivators from there. The people of the Northern Region were very different from those of the Southern Region; it was a place with an extremely fierce and ruthless culture, where almost all cultivators had murderous intent in their eyes.

The Southern Region is full of deep mountains and forests, and the cultivators there, regardless of whether they have blood on their hands, will always try to appear ethereal and otherworldly.

This group of people may be from those major sects in the Northern Region. They may have lingered outside the Demon Emperor's tomb for a long time and are now stuck here.

Qi Zhe stood there, looking at the cultivator who had spoken earlier, and said with a slight smile, "Fellow Daoist, are you perhaps referring to me?"

The man was taken aback for a moment, then his face turned fierce as he said, "That's exactly what I'm talking about."

But before he could finish speaking, Qi Zhe had already made his move, sending his opponent flying with a single palm strike from a distance, leaving him lying on the ground coughing up blood.

"We cultivators should be more careful in our words and actions." Qi Zhe smiled and strode past the group.

"Damn it, you!" With the angry expressions of the crowd, Qi Zhe revealed his powerful aura, instantly silencing the entire street.

"How can I establish myself in the Eastern Wilderness when I haven't even reached the Four Extremes Secret Realm?" Qi Zhe's lips curled up, thinking to himself that he could finally hold his head high after cultivating for so long.

Duan De silently followed Qi Zhe, watching the boy's arrogant demeanor, and couldn't help but whisper in a secluded spot, "Your ability to stir up trouble has improved."

Qi Zhe shook his head upon hearing this and said, "It's not that I caused trouble, but that these people provoked me first. I was just retaliating."

Duan De did not argue with him, but whispered, "Your cultivation has reached a certain level, and you are now beginning to harbor murderous intent. The future may not be peaceful."

Qi Zhe remained silent upon hearing this. He couldn't really call himself a good person, and Ming Wu wouldn't argue with him. He simply said softly, "You're right."

After the minor incident, Qi Zhe waited in the small town for three days and finally witnessed the opening of the Xiaoyao Sect's grand formation. He then followed the flow of people into the sect's gate.

As they ventured deeper, the cultivators of the Free and Unfettered Sect led them to a valley. There, on a flat area in the valley, stood a huge altar inscribed with intricate Daoist patterns, and Free and Unfettered Sect disciples were guarding the area closely.

The two had already expended a considerable amount of resources and were quietly waiting for the domain gate to open, while all around them were rogue cultivators with various expressions.

"Alright! Today I will take you all to the holy land in the Central Region. There are already people waiting there, and you will arrive in the Northern Region in less than half a day!"

As a cultivator from the Free and Unfettered Sect shouted from mid-air, at least four or five hundred people stepped onto the domain gate, among whom Qi Zhe and Duan De were hiding.

"Sizzle."

The grand formation of the Xiaoyao Sect was frantically absorbing the essence of heaven and earth. It revealed an astonishing phenomenon as soon as it was slightly activated, tearing a hundred-zhang-long rift in the void.

Then countless Dao patterns began to fly up, enveloping the many cultivators on the altar into the void, leaving Qi Zhe in a daze.

“It is indeed a huge drain on resources. I just saw them burning their source energy.” Qi Zhe’s eyes shone with silver light as he saw through the domain gate arrangement of the Xiaoyao Sect.

Duan De nodded upon hearing this and said in a low voice, "Even if Dao patterns can condense the power of heaven and earth to traverse the void, without a certain level of cultivation, one cannot support the completion of the Heavenly Force."

As soon as the words fell, the endless Dao patterns tore through the void once more, instantly teleporting tens of millions of miles to the Central Region.

"This is the Purple Mansion Holy Land." Qi Zhe stared blankly at the continuous palaces that suddenly appeared before him.
