Chapter 1835: Chapter 29: The Road to Departure (Part 2)

Even after accepting this reality, he couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

In the past, within the Little Cang World, the Nine Continents couldn’t even gather nine Refining Void cultivators.

This was accumulated over ten thousand years.

But now, the Wanxiang Sect alone has gathered far more than nine Refining Void cultivators. Such speed indeed makes it somewhat hard to adapt at once.

Wang Ba, on the other hand, was quite calm:

“The Little Cang World previously devoured the Outer Realm Eater, Guantao Realm, and quite a bit of Chaos Origin Substance, also extracting nearly all the spiritual energy inside, solely supplying the Taoist Field. Coupled with the enlightenment treasures, such speed is not surprising. According to Senior Jiang, inside the Cloud Sky Realm, in those major sects with Taoist Fields, the cultivators’ cultivation speed is not slow either…”

Zhao Feng nodded upon hearing this, but he immediately felt puzzled:

“So, saying this, Tribulation Crossing and Mahayana cultivators should be easily produced. But why, according to Senior Jiang, are there so few Tribulation Crossing practitioners inside the Cloud Sky Realm?”

Hearing Zhao Feng’s words, Wang Ba was also taken aback, and then a bit puzzled as well.

Indeed, according to their experience, ever since the Little Cang World began wandering within the Realm Sea, everyone’s cultivation speed has been like riding the wind and breaking the waves, advancing thousands of miles in a single day. Actually, sometimes when thinking about it, even they are a bit scared.

And the conditions in the Little Cang World are extremely limited. If even the Little Cang World is like this, the conditions in the Cloud Sky Realm should be much better. Powerful cultivators should be as numerous as carp in the river, and according to this, Tribulation Crossing practitioners should not be as scarce as Jiang Yi says.

Wang Ba pondered for a while and speculated:

“Either Senior Jiang is weak in the Cloud Sky Realm and doesn’t know the true strength of the Cloud Sky Realm, or there are unknown obstacles on the path to Tribulation Crossing… but it’s hard to say these things, and we also have no time to care about them now. Just as our senior brother is exiting seclusion, I’m thinking of taking the Little Cang World away from here.”

Zhao Feng had just learned about the current situation the Little Cang World is facing from Wang Ba’s mouth.

Slightly frowning, he then asked:

“The wind outside is so fierce, how do you plan to deal with it?”

Wang Ba hesitated, then looked intently in a certain direction through Chunyang Palace, and said in a deep voice:

“Now I can only go find Yu Wuheng again.”

“Yu Wuheng?”

Zhao Feng slightly frowned, then said, “Shall I and Junior Brother go take a look together?”

Wang Ba shook his head:

“This Senior Sister does not like men.”

Zhao Feng glanced at Wang Ba, falling into a slight silence.

Seeing this, Wang Ba immediately realized and helplessly let out a bitter smile:

“Senior Brother, don’t overthink, alright, I’ll just go take a look!”

Zhao Feng nodded, having no time to say more. He had just exited seclusion; although major matters in the Sect were being managed by Elders like Ji Ying, as the Sect Master, he naturally had to conduct a thorough patrol to be reassured.

Wang Ba took the Wind-Driving Staff and immediately flew out of the Taoist Field and through the realm membrane.

Just as he was about to go find Yu Wuheng, he noticed within the protection barrier, the faint shimmering golden Buddha’s Light in the depths of the white mist.

Compared to last time, it seemed to have changed quite a bit.

A slight feeling arose in his heart.

His figure flickered, and when he reappeared, he was between the protection barrier and the white mist.

Upon reappearing there, he hesitated slightly and then gradually reduced the effect of the Wind-Driving Staff.

Whoosh—

The violent winds wrapped in white mist instantly crashed onto him!

The protective treasure light shattered almost instantly without the slightest pause.

In just an instant, it directly triggered the Yellow Dao Domain.

On the Yellow Dao Domain, the ripples caused by the wind blew strong, but compared to the initial entry into Refining Void when there was no resistance at all, this time, although constantly shaking, on the verge of breaking, it ultimately managed to hold on stubbornly.

He didn’t even use the Dragon Elephant Dao Soldier.

“Self-improvement is indeed the most fundamental.”

Such a realization spontaneously arose in Wang Ba’s heart.

With this confidence, he once again wielded the Wind-Driving Staff to protect himself, then carefully walked into the depths of the white mist.

As he ventured deeper, the surrounding winds also obviously became much stronger.

However, with the Wind-Driving Staff and the enhancement of his own Dao Domain, combined, although he still couldn’t fully control the surroundings, he could barely avoid the winds that could harm him.

The white mist, like sand, struck around, producing dense sounds.

However, the Buddha’s Light within the white mist also became more and more apparent.

Until he crossed through a layer of dense fog, he finally saw a short gray figure, sitting cross-legged within the white mist.

Without the slightest protection, letting countless winds beat against its body.

The skin was cracked, exposing deep bones.

As the white mist contacted its wounds, it quickly merged into its wounds, healing rapidly…

The golden light emanated from its body, presenting a sacred aura.

Wang Ba couldn’t help but show shock in his eyes!

The wind in the depths of this white fog, without the Wind-Driving Staff smoothing the surrounding air currents and reducing their force, even if he relied on the Class V Dragon Elephant Dao Soldier, he wouldn’t dare to rashly enter this place alone.

Yet he hadn’t expected that Wu Monkey King’s body had already been honed to such a level.

“This white fog… can it also be integrated into the flesh?”

Wang Ba didn’t disturb the Wu Monkey King, though he knew that the Wu Monkey King must have already sensed his arrival, but it was also clearly in a state of cultivation.

He simply raised his hand and grabbed a handful of the white fog in front of him.

The Wind-Driving Staff barely kept the wind in his palm calm, allowing him to more carefully observe the white fog.

It was no different from what he had seen before; this white fog was actually tiny grains of fine sand blown smooth by the wind.

These grains of fine sand were so small that if pinched with fingers, they would just slip through his fingers.

Thus, Wang Ba directly employed his Dao Domain to crush them at a microscopic level.

But to his surprise, these seemingly ordinary white sands remained completely unchanged under the crushing of the Dao Domain!

“This thing… it should be a treasure too!”

Wang Ba instantly concluded this idea in his heart.

Even though he didn’t know what these white sands were exactly or where they came from, anything that could exist in this wind was not simple.

He grabbed some, yet felt that it seemed to have no impact on the wind outside.

After pondering for a moment, he glanced at Wu Monkey King, then turned and withdrew from the white fog, flying directly toward where Yu Wuheng was.

The wild winds howled around.

Amidst the layers of dark stone piles, the figure in red clothes, white hair, and white skin remained motionless.

Sitting cross-legged, eyes half-closed.

Sensing Wang Ba’s arrival, they did not open their eyes but spoke in a slightly cold tone:

“How rare, why have you decided to come to me today?”

Wang Ba’s expression was calm, unconcerned by the emotions Yu Wuheng displayed.

He simply spoke sincerely:

“Junior Brother encountered some difficulties, I’m here hoping that Senior Sister could kindly offer guidance.”

“Heh, why would I tell you?”

Yu Wuheng still kept her eyes closed, but sneered.

Wang Ba, unfazed, remained calm:

“This matter naturally benefits Senior Sister as well… To be honest, we have already prepared to leave this place.”

“Leave?”

Yu Wuheng’s voice finally carried a hint of surprise.

Her eyes quickly opened, examining Wang Ba, with a look of solemnity and doubt flashing through her eyes:

“Are you confident?”

Seeing this, Wang Ba felt more assured in his heart, but still shook his head and said:

“No, and that’s precisely why I’m here this time, hoping to consult with Senior Sister about when the surrounding wind might cease or slow down? Senior Sister, having been here, even if there’s no pattern, must have gleaned some insight…”

Upon hearing this, Yu Wuheng immediately shook her head, somewhat disappointed:

“I thought you already had a method…”

But seeming to sense Wang Ba’s seriousness this time, she hesitated for a moment before speaking:

“To say there’s no pattern isn’t entirely true… This wind is quite peculiar, it either blows for a long time or suddenly stops, I’ve never encountered it slowing down; perhaps it does, but in my thousands of years here, I haven’t seen it. If you truly wish to leave, alone there might be a chance, but taking a world with you, heh…”

She didn’t specify, but Wang Ba understood her meaning.

“Isn’t there any other way?”

Wang Ba frowned slightly, pondered a bit, and didn’t hide anything:

“The Little Cang World can’t hold out much longer, at most several decades before it perishes.”

“Only a few decades left?”

Yu Wuheng’s expression also turned solemn.

After hesitating, she finally spoke:

“I also previously observed the stars outside and, based on these stars, have found a route. It’s just that, going alone, I can’t make it, unsure whether it can succeed, and the wind is indeed no small matter; the deeper you go, the more astounding it becomes. You won’t hold on for long, unless the wind stops or slows down, but it seems unlikely in the short term…”

Upon hearing this, Wang Ba couldn’t conceal his disappointment.

Nevertheless, he still sought this route from Yu Wuheng.

This time, Yu Wuheng did not mock or taunt but straightforwardly handed over the route.
