Chapter 377: Departure
Li Qiye’s words left the old daoist with a sad face. Then, Li Qiye looked at him and continued on: “It might seem that you are firm, but your heart has been wavering. If you continue on like this, when will you ever finish cultivating the Eternal Physique?”
The old face of the daoist became hot as he forced a wry smile: “Hehehe, it is only a little trip to the outside. Cultivating day after day is very boring. Taking in some fresh air will help my cultivation.”
“If that is the case, then you should take a trip to the Grand Middle Territory.” Li Qiye became serious and said: “There are a few secret realms in that region. I can tell you some of the locations, so you can try to find some supreme delicacies. And since you will already be in the region, you can just stay at the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect for around ten years as a guest elder. It would not be a bad choice.”
“Hah, you want to drag me into a pit of fire!” Old Daoist Peng was not willing to do so and replied: “This would be a laborious trip…” The old daoist was as cunning as a devil.
Li Qiye glanced at him and leisurely said with a smile: “If you don’t want to go, then I won’t force you. However, I think there really are ruins from the Legendary Era that had not been visited by anyone for a long long time. The divine carp in that sacred lake might have become a G.o.d… Buzhou Mountain’s Snapper… This must be the most delicious thing in this world, something that only belongs in the land of fairies…” [1. Buzhou Mountain is a mythical mountain.]
Li Qiye then swayed his head around as if he was imagining this unique and extremely delicious fish.
“Buzhou Mountain’s Snapper…” After hearing these words, the old daoist couldn’t help but swallow his saliva several times before asking: “Where are these ruins located?”
“Oh?” Li Qiye stretched his words a lot and said: “Such a good location... I could only let the guest elders of my sect know. How could I possibly tell an outsider about it?”
“Hehehe, I will go discuss it with my little brothers. If they give me permission, then I will go to the Grand Middle Territory!” The old daoist quickly rubbed his hands together and eagerly spoke.
Li Qiye laughed and told him the location of several places. After listening, the old daoist crazily gulped several times as if the delicacies were right before his eyes. He then loudly exclaimed before disappearing like a bolt of lightning: “I will go and discuss it with my little brothers!”
Li Qiye couldn’t help but smile as he watched the speeding figure of the old daoist. If the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect had an expert like the old daoist as a guest, then it would become even more powerful!
Before leaving, Li Qiye went to see Chi Xiaodie and said: “Return to the Lion’s Roar Gate. And if you want to stay at the academy, then just stay for one to two more years. Staying any longer would be unnecessary.”
Chi Xiaodie looked at him with rampant and indescribable emotions. She wanted to say something, but the words wouldn’t come out. In the end, she could only put on a dejected look.
“Silly girl.” Li Qiye gently stroked her hair and said: “I will one day come back to the Eastern Hundred Cities. Of course, the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect will always welcome you as well.”
She finally relaxed with a smile after hearing this, but she still didn’t say anything in the end.
The day of the trip had finally arrived, and Li Qiye was well prepared. He immediately went to the Realm G.o.d’s dwelling with Li Shuangyan and the other girls sending him off; Old Daoist Peng tagged along as well.
As they pa.s.sed by the Elegant Peak, Li Qiye couldn’t help but look at it from the distance. Being aware of this, the old daoist quietly whispered: “Do you want to say goodbye to the Matriarch?”
Li Qiye shook his head while gazing at the peak and replied: “No need, there will be another meeting eventually!” Having said that, he withdrew his gaze and left!
In the depths of the Heavenly Dao Academy, there was an ancient pine tree as majestic as a dragon. This was the first time Li Shuangyan and the others saw the Realm G.o.d. After realizing that the Realm G.o.d was only a pine tree, they couldn’t help but become astonished. An invincible existence was a mere pine tree, how could anyone believe this?
“Are you ready?” The Realm G.o.d’s old voice appeared.
Li Qiye took in a deep breath and said: “I’m ready, take me to that place!”
“I want to check the spatial walls. I’m not quite sure if I can take you to your desired location, but regardless of whether the spatial turbulence will happen or not, I can still take you to the Sacred Nether World.” The Realm G.o.d said.
Li Qiye solemnly nodded and said: “This is not an issue. Even if it is another location, I have other means of entering.”
“Begin!” The Realm G.o.d didn’t say anything else as a branch slowly reached forward. This branch had the thickness of a thumb, but its bark was like the scales of dragons; it was seemingly very tough like the spear of a G.o.d. Li Qiye waved goodbye to the group of Li Shuangyan, then he jumped on top of this branch and said with a serious tone: “Take me there!”
“Go!” The Realm G.o.d lightly shouted as the pine branch raised Li Qiye and then disappeared in the horizon in just a mere second. This pine branch from the depths of the academy stretched all the way to the firmament.
The pine branch used an unimaginable speed to take Li Qiye, who was standing on top of it, all the way out to s.p.a.ce as it headed towards a certain location. Its speed was comparable to traveling via dao portals.
