The teleportation array was completed, and on the same day, Taiqi Peak and Lu Ping began to discuss using this teleportation array.
During the final construction phase, several array masters had already conducted multiple verifications of the array.
Theoretically, it could be linked to the teleportation array at the Heaven Mending Saint Realmâs location.
Once the array is activated, one can be transported to the Central Ancestral Domain within Sumeru.
That is the location of the Heaven Mending Saint Realm.
"Letâs go take a look today!"
Taiqi Peak was itching to proceed, eager to visit the Central Ancestral Domain and take a good look at the Heaven Mending Saint Realm.
He harbored some yearning and anticipation for this sect.
He felt like a frog at the bottom of a well, needing to see higher, bigger, and broader worlds.
Having reached the Nascent Soul Stage, further cultivation in Lingxi State was already extremely difficult due to the restrictions of Heaven and Earth.
The sooner he travels to the Central Ancestral Domain, the sooner he can plan for his future cultivation.
Lu Ping nodded in agreement. They decided to use the teleportation array to travel to the Central Ancestral Domain in three days.
Back at Cyan Mountain Sect, Lu Ping convened with Li Zhilu, Lu Yuanshan, Lu Zhiwei, and Lu Changfeng to discuss his plan of action for the coming period.
This time, he was taking Taiqi Peak to the Central Ancestral Domain to prepare for breaking through to the Divinity Transformation Stage, needing to acquire cultivation resources there, followed by a long period of secluded cultivation.
The exact time of emerging from seclusion could be as short as three to five years, or as long as several decades.
Upon learning of Lu Pingâs plan, Lu Yuanshan nodded slowly and said with a serious expression, "Father wants to break through to the Divinity Transformation Stage, which is of utmost importance. We have over ten million spirit stones stored in the sect. Father, why not take some more?"
As soon as Lu Yuanshan finished speaking, Lu Changfeng nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, the resources needed to break through to the Divinity Transformation Stage surely wonât be cheap. Bringing more spirit stones would be wise."
Lu Zhiwei also nodded slightly.
The group chatted about this topic for a while.
Cyan Mountain Sect currently has a spirit stone reserve of nearly fifteen million, enough to purchase a set of resources for breaking through to the Divinity Transformation Stage.
However, Lu Ping didnât lack these spirit stones and didnât take any with him, reminding everyone to develop the sect well during his absence from Lingxi State.
If they encounter any problems, they could seek help from Elder Jiang; if Elder Jiang couldnât solve them, they could then look for him in the Central Ancestral Domain.
Now that there was a teleportation array, traveling to and from the Central Ancestral Domain was much more convenient.
Three days later.
Po Mo Ridge, where the teleportation array is located.
With the presence of the spirit vein of Po Mo Ridge, there was no need to use spirit stones to power the array.
Under the watchful gaze of Lu Changfeng and several elders of the Heaven-Facing Sect, Lu Ping and Taiqi Peak stepped into the teleportation array.
As the array activated, it began frantically absorbing the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi from the spirit vein, the array charged rapidly, and soon was excitedly activated.
Whoosh.
A strong glow erupted from the array, exuding a hazy brilliance as mysterious patterns surfaced, interweaving, causing both to feel enveloped by a force of time and space.
Under everyoneâs gaze, Taiqi Peak and Lu Pingâs forms began to change, becoming illusory.
Soon after, accompanied by the soaring array light, both disappeared in an instant, leaving only the mysterious powers within the array to start calming down.
"The ancestors have been teleported over."
"What a magical array."
"What do you think the other side of the Central Ancestral Domain is like?"
"..."
These few voices of discussion werenât heard by Lu Ping and Taiqi Peak; both only felt the change in scenery before them, and when their figures reappeared, they were already in another teleportation array.
"Welcome, Daoist companions."
A voice came from a cultivator smilingly watching them.
Judging by the attire, it was a cultivator from the Heaven Mending Saint Realm.
Next, they were invited to register and were asked a few simple questions, regarding their origin, cultivation level, age, and race.
Upon learning that both were from Lingxi State, the person asked with a smile, "Are the two of you from the Heaven-Facing Sect?"
Lu Ping and Taiqi Peak, when initially revealing their origins, didnât specify they were from Cyan Mountain Sect and Heaven-Facing Sect, merely from Lingxi State.
To be asked now and mentioned Heaven-Facing Sect, they couldnât help but wonder if the Heaven Mending Saint Master or this person had instructed the disciples guarding the teleportation array, telling them that any cultivators from Lingxi State were from Heaven-Facing Sect.
After all, the method for building the teleportation array, as well as the construction materials, were provided by the Heaven Mending Saint Realm.
Itâs not surprising they made arrangements to greet them in advance, and have their disciples be on alert.
Most likely it was this; Taiqi Peak responded with a slight smile, nodding, "Indeed."
Lu Ping didnât provide further explanation, only allowing them to know that both came via the Heaven-Facing Sectâs teleportation array.
"The Sect Leader instructed that if encountering Daoist companions from Heaven-Facing Sect, they must be reported immediately, hence the audacity to ask."
The disciple from the Heaven Mending Saint Realm said seriously.
As he spoke, he invited both out of the teleportation array to sit nearby, before taking out a communication talisman to report.
Soon, an elder arrived swiftly riding a silver-winged white tiger, gently landing.
"I am Xu Hailin, the Sixth Elder of Heaven Mending Saint Realm; you must be Lu Ping, Daoist Lu, correct?"
Xu Hailin said with a welcoming smile, his gaze first laying upon Lu Ping.
When the disciple reported to the Heaven Mending Saint Master, they were asked about Lu Ping and Taiqi Peakâs figures, appearances, cultivation levels, and backgrounds, making it easy to deduce which one was Lu Ping.
As for the other, possibly a cultivator from Heaven-Facing Sect, but they werenât sure who, unknown to her.
Upon Xu Hailinâs mission to greet them, naturally, Lu Pingâs identity was stated, to ensure proper hospitality.
After some pleasantries, Taiqi Peak also declared coming from Heaven-Facing Sect, being its Sect Leader, and both followed Xu Hailin to the Heaven Mending Saint Realmâs guest reception.
The Heaven Mending Saint Master, Shui Wuyue, was already waiting here, upon seeing Lu Ping, greeted him first.
"Lu Friend, what brings you to have a seat at my Heaven Mending Saint Realm?"
She said casually, "If not for the teleportation array here, Lu Friend would be a rare guest."
Lu Pingâs last visit to the Heaven Mending Saint Realm was to seek out his wife Li Zhilu.
About him being a disciple of the Void Celestial Extreme Saint with exceptionally great talent, now his cultivation has reached the Ninth-Layer Nascent Soul.
This kind of genius cultivator, a Divinity Transformation Dao Seed, she highly values, intending to win him over.
"This is Taiqi Peak, the Sect Master of Heaven-Facing Sect, with some connections to your sect."
Lu Ping didnât elaborate further, instead shifting the focus to introduce Taiqi Peak.
Taiqi Peak, being old and savvy, promptly continued Lu Pingâs words, introduced himself, and briefly summarized the construction and development history of Heaven-Facing Sect in a few sentences.
