Chapter 217: Chapter 10 Maggot Baby, Go for it! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]_1

A dark space.

Chu Liang and Yang Yuhu found themselves in a room, feeling as if the air was about to solidify.

Hearing Yang Yuhu suddenly break the silence, Chu Liang didn’t pursue further. With a light laugh, he said, "No worries."

Those who’ve met Empress Feng weren’t favourably impressed by the disciples of the Shu Mountain Sect, so it wasn’t something to be blamed for.

"Thank you for stepping in to save me just now, otherwise, I would’ve been in some trouble," said Yang Yuhu again.

As a core disciple of the Penglai Upper Sect, he wouldn’t be instantly killed by the fire dragon, but it would’ve been a hassle for him to pull out some life-saving cards.

Fortunately, Chu Liang had relieved him.

Chu Liang again laughed lightly and said, "We’re all on a mission to exorcise demons and guard the Dao, so it’s only right."

After a while, both of them recovered their energy and stood up to inspect the black iron bowl.

Yang Yuhu drew his sword forward, the sword aura shining brilliantly. With a clang, there was not even a trace left on the iron wall.

"So hard," he said, frowning.

Chu Liang also tried to stab the ground with his sword in an attempt to burrow his way out, but to no avail.

With a clanging sound, the Dustless Sword left a scratch on the ground.

The suppression of this black iron bowl is likely due to the array rune engraved here, which naturally wouldn’t leave such a loophole. The area below is likely all covered by its array rune, extremely robust.

"It seems we can only wait to be rescued," Yang Yuhu said. "The City Warden official and others should be arriving soon."

"Haven’t you realized that this place is air-tight?" Chu Liang asked.

Yang Yuhu was also shocked, sensing the problem.

Unless a cultivator has reached the Seventh Realm and gained the ability to create their own heavens and earth, they still need to breathe. Although some divine skills can help to hold one’s breath, the precondition is to store enough air within a breath.

Normally, the air they need to breathe is not less than that of ordinary people, even several times more. Because the breath of cultivators is longer and stronger, the amount of air in a breath is larger.

If Chu Liang were running at full capacity with his Golden Core, he could swallow up all the air in this place in one breath!

How long can such a small space provide air for the two of them to breathe?

An hour? Or even half an hour...

Moreover, the strongest force in Yanbo City was only at the Fifth Stage, and it was uncertain whether it could open this bowl. Suddenly, were the two of them facing a life-and-death crisis?

Yang Yuhu had just thought of this, but Chu Liang had noticed this problem long ago, yet he still remained calm.

"Do you have any ideas?" Yang Yuhu couldn’t help but ask.

"Not yet," Chu Liang said.

Why was he so calm...

After pondering for a while, Yang Yuhu suddenly said, "I’ve come up with a method."

"Oh?" Chu Liang looked at him.

"I can use the Immortal Law to travel around the world and return to Penglai to seek help from the elders in our sect," said Yang Yuhu.

"That’s great," Chu Liang nodded.

But Yang Yuhu hesitated slightly because while using Immortal Law to travel around the world, his physical body would be completely unprotected here.

Although Chu Liang had no reason to harm him, what if... After all, they were only incidental acquaintances. Could he really trust him so much?

However, these thoughts only lasted for a moment before he threw them out of his mind.

This was the only possible way out at the moment. If not, were they supposed to wait here to die together?

Yang Yuhu decided to trust this disciple from Shu Mountain Sect once.

He sat cross-legged, forming a seal with both hands. Immediately, an ethereal shadow separated from his body and returned to Penglai Upper Sect in the Eastern Sea.

...

Watching Yang Yuhu use his "Flying Above the Realm" skill, Chu Liang couldn’t help but feel some envy. Having Immortal Law is really nice.

If he knew the Immortal Law of Shrinkage, he could’ve directly teleported out and wouldn’t have to suffer here. Even the person who saved the demonic cultivator previously relied upon the Immortal Law to escape his fatal attack.

When he returned, he needed to speed up his learning.

With its profound heritage, the number of Immortal Laws stored in Shu Mountain Sect was considered one of the top in the Immortal Cultivation World. He had some ability to spare, so there was no reason not to delve more into it.

He touched the iron wall again. Apart from its hardness, this black iron had no other characteristics, hence only one suppression array was engraved into it.

But he had to admit that it was very effective.

Huh?

After touching it a couple of times, he suddenly recalled something.

The hard-headed Maggot Baby in his White Pagoda space was still hibernating. If it took a shot, could it burrow through this iron wall?

Upon this thought, Chu Liang summoned the Maggot Baby out with a wave of his hand.

Peep.

Maggot Baby stretched out in Chu Liang’s palm, shaking its milky white head, looking somewhat groggy from sleep.

Chu Liang looked at it for a while and actually found this little creature to be somewhat cute.

Maggot Baby usually dug everywhere, but it was always obedient in Chu Liang’s palm, never biting him... I wonder if it really sees him as his mother.

Chu Liang gently placed it on the sturdy iron wall of the giant bowl and murmured, "Time to eat."

Chirp, chirp, chirp.

Maggot Baby wriggled on the spot for a few times, and then immediately started head down, undulating its body.

In the blink of an eye, half of its body had drilled into the iron wall, looking as if it was as simple as drilling through tofu.

As expected!

Maggot Baby did not disappoint Chu Liang.

Furthermore, it seemed quite excited, its tiny body rolled and turned, impatiently burrowing into it, and gold lines were continuously excreted.

During this feeding and excreting process, its body was slowly growing. It only grows in size when it eats materials with spirituality.

If it were Chu Liang’s resources, he honestly wouldn’t want to feed spiritual materials to Maggot Baby like this, which is why he has had it in hibernation for so long. This time, he could feed his Spirit Pet and find a way out of his predicament, killing two birds with one stone.

Maggot Baby, eat up!

...

To the east of Yanbo City, beyond Black Whale Mountain, is the vast ocean.

Within the depths of the Eastern Sea lie the Penglai Three Islands, shrouded in mist, hailed as the first blessed land in the mortal realm.

All thanks to the abundant spiritual energy on the Penglai Three Islands, a vast region grows countless Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, enough to support a large number of cultivators.

As early as the ancient times, the indigenous inhabitants of the islands in the Eastern Sea discovered this place, and people gradually settled here. These indigenous inhabitants also had their own cultivators, of a variety of types, but none were systematic.

During the chaotic era of the Demon God, a group of cultivators from the Nine States fled to the eastern sea for refuge and discovered the magical Penglai Three Islands and the native cultivators in this place.

The native cultivators warmly accepted them, hoping to learn powerful Divine Skills from these cultivators of the Nine States. These cultivators from the Nine States could exchange small Divine Skills or Magic Artifacts for the invaluable Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.

They fell in love with this land, and lived here ever since, integrating with the native cultivators.

But despite their small numbers, these cultivators from the Nine States were strong and ambitious. They gathered everyone to establish a large sect named "Penglai" under the pretext of conveniently imparting Divine Skills.

The Penglai was divided into the Upper Sect and the Lower Sect. The Upper Sect held most of the power, residing on Mirage Mountain, monopolizing the best resources. The Lower Sect was scattered amongst the Three Islands under Mirage Mountain, subject to the appointment of the Upper Sect.

The Penglai Upper Sect was basically occupied by the Nine States cultivators, while most of the numerous native cultivators were in the Lower Sect, losing the dominance of the Penglai Three Islands.

During this time, some of the people of the Lower Sect realized that something was wrong and wanted to unite the native cultivators to drive away these outsiders and restore their paradise-like life. But the people of the Upper Sect were strong and cracked down hard on the rebels, thus firmly establishing the structure of the Upper and Lower Sects of Penglai.

After thousands of years, people only know about the Penglai Upper Sect.

And many inheritors of the Penglai Lower Sect are also working hard to cultivate, hoping to stand out one day and earn a spot in the Upper Sect.

Mirage Mountain stood tall and majestic amidst the mist, seeming both real and illusory. The countless magnificent palaces on the sprawling mountain peak seemed like a mortal fairyland.

Yang Yuhu’s astral projection appeared directly before a main hall, shouting, "Master, save me!"

"Hmm?" A bearded Daoist inside the hall opened his eyes.

He had golden hair and eyebrows since childhood, differing from ordinary people, so he called himself the Yellow Dragon Daoist, and was a rather high-ranking elder of the current Penglai Upper Sect.

Seeing Yang Yuhu hastily arrive in his astral projection body, the Yellow Dragon Daoist suddenly stood up, looking concerned as he asked, "What’s wrong?"

"I was pursuing a Demonic cultivator in Yanbo City when an expert suddenly appeared and suppressed me under a Magic Artifact. I’m suffocating and will die in an hour!" Yang Yuhu said urgently.

Hearing this, the Yellow Dragon Daoist’s face turned serious, and he waved his large sleeves, "Yanbo City?"

He reached out and seized Yang Yuhu’s astral projection, held it in his hand, and took off into the air! His body instantly turned into a golden light!

Immortal Law, Vertical Golden Light!

Out of all known Divine Skills in the world, when it comes purely to flying speed, Vertical Golden Light is without a doubt the fastest!

The Shrinkage can be used for short distance teleportation but can’t be used continuously for long distances. Some teleportation type Divine Skills can directly cross over large mountains and seas, but they must have a target.

Whoosh—

With a sudden flash of the golden light, it had already passed through the vast ocean, arriving outside Yanbo City. The Yellow Dragon Daoist revealed his form, and with a slight adjustment under Yang Yuhu’s direction, he found the location outside the city.

His Divine Sense swept past, he queried lightly, "Where is this Black Iron Bowl?"

"It’s right there!" Yang Yuhu’s astral projection pointed to a direction, but then he himself also exclaimed, "Eh?"

The Yellow Dragon Daoist landed with him, and indeed saw Yang Yuhu’s physical body sitting in the wilderness, guarded by a young man in handsome brocade clothes.

Yang Yuhu’s astral projection returned to his body, opening his eyes.

Chu Liang immediately greeted him with a smile, "Brother Yang, you’re awake."

Seeing the Yellow Dragon Daoist land, he also stood up to greet him, giving a slight bow.

Yang Yuhu looked around in confusion and asked, "Where’s the Black Iron Bowl?"

Chu Liang lifted his head, "Huh?"
