Chapter 1148: Chapter 1168: Constantly Running Around, It’s Too Tiring!_1

"It’s true that commercial flying boats are convenient, but the journey takes too long."

Lin Chen was lying in a lounge chair, holding a book to pass the time.

When one is bored, cultivation is the best way to pass the time. With two people on a journey, there is naturally no boredom, so Lin Chen wouldn’t cultivate.

As for normal cultivation, the speed of strength improvement is too slow. Without elixirs or miraculous encounters, it would take at least a hundred or eighty years for Lin Chen to reach the Transforming Spirit Peak from the Late Nascent Soul stage, or even longer.

All along the way, Lin Chen encountered various adventures, gains, as well as the Blood of the True Dragon, Spiritual Essence, Immortal Spirit Qi and so on. Without these, how could he have improved so quickly?

Qiao Wei was lying on a chair next to him, leisurely eating melon seeds, with a steaming pot of Spiritual Tea on a small table beside her.

She had already reached the Divinity Great Perfection and needed comprehension and breakthroughs.

"You must be very unaccustomed to the Barren Wilderness after having lived in the Human World, right?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Yeah, in the Human World, people can’t fly, but they have airplanes. Basically, a day’s flight can take you to any part of the world. In the Barren Wilderness, it takes at least a month or two to travel across a state. All that time is wasted on the journey."

Pondering for a moment, Lin Chen asked, "Aren’t there any teleportation gates or something like that? Like the ones where you enter from Xixi State and in a flash, you arrive in East Emperor State..."

Qiao Wei laughed, "I heard that there were some in ancient times, built with the help of immortals, but they were all destroyed in wars."

Lin Chen looked up and said, "Fairy, are there any teleportation gates in the Immortal Realm?"

"Yes."

Xuanji Fairy’s voice resounded, "The Immortal Realm is vast and infinite, divided into many domains. There are teleportation arrays between domains and some important cities also have teleportation arrays. However, those are only for ultra-long-distance teleportation. The distance you mentioned, like traveling for a month or two, is not considered far at all..."

Lin Chen teased, "I can see why immortals have such long lives. After all, running around like that is so exhausting!"

Xuanji Fairy’s voice contained a hint of laughter, "No one knows how big the Immortal Realm really is because the wastelands are too vast. The areas where humans live only occupy a small part."

"Teleportation gates require a huge amount of immortal stones to maintain, which ordinary sects cannot afford. Only the top-tier sects can have teleportation gates, so there aren’t many."

"In addition to these gates, there are some special teleportation methods in the Immortal Realm. Although they also consume a lot of resources, they are more convenient, less costly, and more flexible than fixed teleportation gates."

Lin Chen asked, "Was Elder Jiang using the Method of Transcending the Void that day?"

Xuanji Fairy nodded, "Yes, but the Array Plate he used that day was for directional movement, not fixed-point movement. For fixed-point movement, you need two Array Plates, which you can think of as Mother and Sub-disk."

"When the Sub-disk is activated, the Mother Disk will sense it and then activate the Mother Disk to form a one-way teleportation gate. People can be teleported from the Mother Disk to the Sub-disk."

Hearing this, Lin Chen said, "If the person carrying the Mother Disk also carries another Mother Disk when leaving, and leaves a Sub-disk at home, wouldn’t it be possible to teleport there and back quickly?"

"Indeed, it is possible."

Xuanji Fairy explained, "But there are some limitations, such as the distance you can use it. The farther the distance, the greater the consumption of Immortal Spiritual Power, and the Array Plate can only withstand a limited amount of Immortal Spiritual Power. In other words, there is a distance limit for the Mother-Sub transmission disk. If the distance is exceeded, even if the Sub-disk emits a signal, the Mother Disk will not respond at all."

Lin Chen laughed, "Even with the distance limitations, it’s still better than here. Whoever encounters danger, being a little bit farther away, there is no way to ask for help. Even if the rescuers know about it, they can’t help in time. By the time they arrive, I’m afraid it’s too late."

Xuanji Fairy replied, "The greater your abilities, the more convenient it is. It’s the same everywhere."

Lin Chen looked at the time, and it was almost time for dinner. He laughed, "It’s time to eat. Let’s go have dinner."

Xuanji Fairy asked, "Are you hungry?"

Lin Chen replied, "Eat when you should eat, sleep when you should sleep. Maintaining a normal life is the best way for a cultivator to retain their humanity, isn’t it? If one cultivates all day and all night just to live longer, what’s the point of such a life as a cultivation machine?"

Xuanji Fairy laughed gently, "You seem to have a clear understanding of this."

Lin Chen said with a smile, "I said to Qi in the Ghost Tower that the purpose of cultivation is to live well and freely, not to live for thousands of years like an old tortoise..."

The two went to the flying boat’s restaurant, sat down in a corner, and ordered food.

Soon, the food was served, and they ate and chatted just like a vacationing couple.

The man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful and charming, attracting many guests to sneak glances at them.

As they were eating, the light in front of them dimmed, and a man sat down in front of the two of them.
