When system cheat becomes rampant!-Chapter 1227 - 803: Returning to Bone Mountain Desert Stone Cave

When returning to the Great Desolate Realm, everything seemed familiar.

Familiar mountains, familiar primitive aura, familiar roars of desolate beasts.

But it was different from the last time Xiang Beifei was in the Great Desolate Realm, because this time he clearly felt a powerful force permeating all around.

This force seemed elusive; if one tried to sense it carefully, it couldn’t be pinpointed, but it was there—like a tiger watching intently from afar, ready to pounce and annihilate with lightning speed if anyone showed a weakness!

"Such a powerful force."

Xiang Beifei was now quite familiar with Heavenly Dao’s power, so sensing this aura also made him involuntarily serious.

Heavenly Dao’s power was indeed strong, and even he didn’t dare to confront it head-on. Previously, when he was in the Great Desolate Realm, his cultivation hadn’t reached that level, and he couldn’t sense this force, but now it was different.

Fortunately, the people here basically have the ability to protect themselves. He could protect himself using Yin-Yang energy, Feng and Zhai Kong crammed their rough and tough thousand-meter bodies into a small stature, and Hai Fuyu turned himself into a divine pattern to avoid suspicion, returning to the Yu Divine Stele.

As for Qian Qingbo, he was currently relying on the Mustard Seed in Palm to protect himself. For additional safety, Xiang Beifei also covered him with Yin-Yang energy and used special methods to allow Qian Qingbo to temporarily use this Yin-Yang energy, which could help conceal his aura in times of danger.

Because Xiang Beifei was flying all the way north, naturally, on the way back, he flew all the way south. They hurried south at the fastest speed, not bothering with desolate beasts in their path, sweeping them aside. The power of the Heavenly Connection realm allowed them to travel almost unhindered in the Great Desolate Realm.

However, their speed also slowed significantly, lacking the enchanting sensation of the ascension realm’s ability to cover a thousand miles with every step. According to Erha’s description, the current flying speed was like that of a turtle, similar to Youmong, which did not please Youmong much.

"I also have the initial strength of the Heavenly Connection!", Youmong protested.

"So you’re like a little turtle, what’s wrong with that?", Erha smirked. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"I’m much faster than a turtle!", Youmong retorted angrily.

"Erha, your speed isn’t much better," Xiaohei chimed in, unimpressed.

"At least I’m not the slowest. Whoever among us is the slowest is the fool," Erha boasted.

Youmong rolled his eyes: "Brother Beifei really should have left you at the Congji abyss."

"The Congji abyss doesn’t need me either, hehe."

Ever since the Human Race reclaimed the Mustard Seed in Palm that had been sealed, they could be self-reliant, resisting the devouring force of the void with the Mustard Seed in Palm. Of course, the foundation was still reliant on Jianmu, but once Erha established the basics, everything else could be maintained with the Mustard Seed in Palm.

With the three youngsters bickering, the group flew tirelessly forward. This time, Xiang Beifei did not need to detour to Changpan Valley or the territory of the Moon God Race, nor did he need to go to Changpan Valley to gather information as he did the last time, so their speed was relatively faster.

After about five days of flying, they reached the vicinity of Bone Mountain Desert Stone Cave. This area was a wilderness where towering forests were shrouded in mist. One could faintly see birds taking off and landing, and occasionally hear the echoing roars of desolate beasts.

Here was where he needed to part ways with Qian Qingbo.

Xiang Beifei handed the mound mark to Qian Qingbo. With the mound spirit’s presence, he could smoothly return to Jiuzhou.

"I have placed a mark on you. If that side’s Heavenly Spear can be managed in time, I will teleport to you immediately and then take you to Jiuzhou. But if the Heavenly Spear’s teleportation array does not work, you will have to endure about a year of traveling," Xiang Beifei explained.

"Rest assured, Human King, I will accomplish this task!" Qian Qingbo assured, cupping his hands.

"That’s good. The items I’ve given you, whether you use them yourself or give them to my mentors, it’s all fine. Once you return to Jiuzhou, just assist my mentors for the time being."

Xiang Beifei had gathered numerous powerful treasures in the Edge Corner Airspace and left them for Qian Qingbo to take back to Jiuzhou.

"Understood."

Qian Qingbo was well aware of his mission.

Xiang Beifei searched and handed a seed to Qian Qingbo.

This seed was given by Elder Luo, which Xiang Beifei hadn’t used since stepping into the Heavenly Connection realm, kept back as it contained his aura and was sufficient as a token.

Qian Qingbo did not linger further and immediately headed in the direction of Si Hou. The Great Desolate Realm was quite treacherous; without the mound spirit’s guidance, it was easy to lose one’s way.

After Qian Qingbo disappeared at the horizon, Xiang Beifei turned around and said, "We need to visit Elder Giant Spirit."

"This way."

Feng and Zhai Kong navigated confidently forward, then flew toward the top of a high mountain cliff. Landing at the top, they saw a crooked-neck tree, which at a glance seemed no different from other ordinary trees, surrounded by similar foliage that would cause ordinary people not to give it a second look.

But Feng walked up to this tree, placed his hand on the trunk, and the tree immediately lit up with a golden pattern. The entire tree was covered with golden lines, like countless golden chains wrapped around it.

Then, at the place where Feng’s hand touched, a golden chain broke, falling away as if a crack had appeared in the air.

"You guys go inside first," Feng said.

"I’ll go first, I’m about to burst!"

Zhai Kong dashed forward eagerly, rushing in first. As soon as his body entered the crack, it rapidly grew at an observable speed until it was no longer visible, only that the crack was blocked by a bronze-colored wall.
