Cultivation Begins with Skill Points-Chapter 202: Transmission Array

A violent force of flames swept everything around away, and Zhong Lin soared into the air, disappearing into the void in an instant.

"Flying... flew away."

Sitting on the ground with no semblance of grace, Jiang Yuan was staring blankly at the void, not paying any heed to the dirt on the ground.

In the sky, a flame surged straight towards the horizon, distinctly forming two massive wings, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes in myth and legend.

"Is this what an Innate Martial Artist is?" Jiang Yuan muttered dumbfoundedly.

Zhong Lin, in the void, was filled with ecstasy, looking at the city below shrinking away and letting out a long howling cry.

"Red Flames Wings, this is the Red Flames Wings, haha."

Zhong Lin could feel two ethereal meridians extending from the scapulas on both sides of his back, with Innate True Qi circulating within, manifesting externally as two Flame Wings.

The wings spread out, stretching over ten meters, with feathers clearly visible, vivid, and composed of flames, emanating intense heat, resembling phoenix wings from afar.

With a thought, the Red Flames Wings moved at his command, flapping gently twice, transforming into a streak of fire and shooting into the distance.

"Haha, I can fly now."

Zhong Lin shouted with excitement in the air, flying up, down, left, right, ascending into the Qingming, chasing azure clouds, or dispersing the wings and free-falling.

In the sky, forming an S-shape at times, a B-shape at others, though, unfortunately, no one understood his humor.

An hour later, Zhong Lin suddenly retracted his wings and landed on a mountaintop, feeling no exhaustion but rather some surplus of Innate True Qi, a surge of excitement filling his heart.

"What great Red Flames Wings, able to absorb Heaven and Earth Essence Qi while flying, for a whole hour, with True Qi not depleted at all, but instead having increased significantly."

Zhong Lin was full of joy, the Red Flames Wings somewhat akin to the techniques in novels from his past life.

With marvelous step techniques, keeping himself safe and evading enemies, accumulating Inner Strength, and then taking their lives.

"Zhong Lin, how does it feel to fly?"

Chen Jia’s voice suddenly echoed in Zhong Li’s mind.

Zhong Lin smiled broadly, joyfully replying, "It feels wonderful, a sense of freedom, unrestrained and unshackled."

"Remember this feeling well, to truly achieve freedom and be unrestrained, cultivate diligently. When you reach the summit, everything in the world is but ants beneath your feet, unable to hinder your steps, that’s when you’re truly free." Chen Jia said.

"Yes, disciple will remember Master’s teaching."

"You are teachable, fly towards the southeast."

Zhong Lin didn’t hesitate, spreading his Red Flames Wings once more, with a powerful flap, transforming into a streak of fire heading southeast.

Crossing rivers and passing through mountain ranges, the speed of his flight was far beyond that of riding a horse, as one path was straight while the other required constant detours due to the terrain, making their speeds different as well.

Even so, Zhong Lin flew for a full three days before landing in a deserted deep valley.

"It’s right here. Truly, changes of time and circumstances, a thousand years ago this was a lake, but now it’s turned into a forest."

Chen Jia’s figure emerged from the Black Iron Ring, his face filled with emotion as he looked at the vast forest in front of him.

"Master, is this the location of the Transmission Array?" Zhong Lin asked curiously.

"Yes, within that deep valley is a hidden chamber, inside of which resides the Stone Tablet Array, go on in!"

This time Zhong Lin didn’t fly again, instead employing Qinggong, gliding into the valley like a large bird.

Fortunately, the valley hadn’t changed much, and under Chen Jia’s guidance, Zhong Lin easily found the hidden chamber.

He stepped in without hesitation, walking several hundred steps, and suddenly it opened up, revealing a massive cave in front of him, with dozens of towering stone tablets being the most eye-catching.

These stone tablets were extremely tall, each standing several tens of meters high, inscribed with some unknown patterns that appeared quite mystical.

The stone tablets were arranged in a mysterious formation, but no matter how long Zhong Lin observed, he couldn’t discern anything special about it, though a few stones caught his attention.

"Master, what are these? Why are they placed on the altar?"

Zhong Lin asked about some milky white stones. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

"These are Spirit Stones, stones infused with Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, used for cultivation and as currency on the Luoxing Islands. Activating the Transmission Array requires these Spirit Stones; they vanished from the Xuan Gui Continent long ago, these I brought from the Luoxing Islands." Chen Jia explained.

Zhong Lin raised an eyebrow, they truly were Spirit Stones! Naturally, if a Transmission Array exists, Spirit Stones are indispensable, otherwise, how could it be activated?

"Stand in the center of the Stone Tablet and use True Qi to activate the Spirit Stones, then the Transmission Array will open. The other end of the Transmission Array is also within a cave, extremely secluded."

"Mm."

After Chen Jia retracted into the Soul Nourishing Ring, Zhong Lin nodded, following Chen Jia’s guidance into the center of the stone tablets, flicking his right hand as a stream of True Qi surged into the Spirit Stones, activating the energy within.

As the energy within the Spirit Stones surged, the inscriptions on the stone tablets glowed faintly, accompanied by a spatial fluctuation, and Zhong Lin vanished from within the stone tablets in an instant.

Feeling a sensation like a roller coaster, Zhong Lin experienced an upheaval, briefly glimpsing nothingness around him, but this lasted only a moment. As his vision cleared, he found himself in another Stone Tablet Array, though in a different cave.

"Quantum teleportation? Spatial transference? I should study this in the future; with the System Panel, I don’t have to worry about not learning it, then I can set one up in the Sword Cauldron Sect." Zhong Lin pondered.

Stepping out of the Transmission Array, he headed towards the nearby cave entrance.

Upon exiting the cave, Zhong Lin instinctively closed his eyes, feeling a surge of dense Heaven and Earth Essence Qi crashing against him, even feeling like he could roll in its tide.

"Gasp! Such dense Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, dozens of times richer than on the Xuan Gui Continent. Cultivating in such an environment is twice as effective with half the effort. Even without the aid of Spiritual Liquid, I could fill the Innate Acupoints within less than ten years." Zhong Lin exclaimed in shock.

On the Xuan Gui Continent, Heaven and Earth Essence Qi was sparse, and cultivation in the Innate Realm required painstaking effort, taking a hundred years. On the Luoxing Islands, a single breath absorbed more Heaven and Earth Essence Qi than meditating for a entire Circulation, it was outrageous.

Chen Jia’s figure emerged from the Soul Nourishing Realm, smiling as he said, "This is just the beginning. As the name suggests, Luoxing Islands are merely remote islands; reaching the Sword Domain reveals a true cultivation Holy Land."
