C46 Depart Central Plains!
The next day, before dawn, Mingsi walked alone on the streets that were still dark. He had finished tidying up. At this moment, he was preparing to gather at the Wind Spirit Courtyard.
The courtyard road was quiet and cool. Only Mingsi's soft footsteps could be heard all around. As he walked, Mingsi suddenly noticed a figure standing quietly under a big tree by the road in front of him.
A cool breeze blew past, and a faint fragrance hit his face. Mingsi remembered this smell. He whispered to the person in front of him, "Silly?"
"Yes, I do. " A figure walked out from under the tree. It passed through the shadow of the tree and revealed Yem Yutine.
"Why are you here?" Mingsi walked closer and asked curiously.
"I'll see you out. " Yem Yutine blinked her big eyes and said with a smile.
Mingsi looked at Yem Yutine's slightly raised face. It was chubby and he could not help but stretch his finger over and rub it on her face. "Wow, like a baby!"
Yem Yutine's originally smiling face suddenly became angry. She grabbed Mingsi's hand and pressed down hard. "You idiot, I already told you not to touch my face!" Immediately, Yem Yutine waved her small hand and small bubbles appeared one after another, about to hit Mingsi.
At this time, Mingsi, who was prepared, had already used Light Spirit Arts to escape far away. He smiled and shouted behind him, "Thank you, idiot, for sending me off! Hahaha. . . "
After climbing up the mountain peak of the Wind Spirit Courtyard, Mingsi arrived at the square on top of the mountain peak. At this moment, a few people had already arrived. Mingsi found a place to sit and began to meditate, quietly adjusting his breathing.
"These few days, I was so busy that I didn't have time to cultivate! Looks like I'll have to find time to break through to the spirit realm in a few days! Hmph hmph, I don't believe that this Heavenly Tower Assembly really doesn't need to test my own abilities! Furthermore, an extra portion of strength will give me an extra layer of protection. In that case, breaking through must be done!" Mingsi made up his mind.
Not long after, the twenty people who were participating in the assembly had all arrived. After that, three figures flew over from the horizon. Feng Zizai was on the left, and Hei Yu was on the right. One of them was Yun Tian and Dean Ye.
The three of them slowly landed on the platform. Ye Yuntian looked around at the crowd with appreciation in his eyes. When he swept his gaze across Mingsi, Ye Yuntian paused for a moment. After a while, he shifted his gaze away.
After a while, Ye Yuntian said, "Little guys, it has been hard on you these few days. This trip to the Central Plains, you have to work hard and not lose the reputation of our Southern Pearl. As for honor, that is useless. You don't have to force it. All you need to do is come back safely. "
" Yes! We will do our best!" Everyone shouted in unison.
Ye Yuntian's eyes lit up and said: "This trip to the Central Plains will be led by Elder Black Feather. Besides Director Feng, there are two other instructors who will go with you. You have to listen to your advisors on the way, and you are not allowed to act on your own. Do you remember?"
" I remember! " Everyone answered in unison.
"Alright! Then there's no time to lose. Let's set off now!" Ye Yuntian waved his hand and Hei Yu and Feng Zizai walked out. They rolled up the twenty students and flew into the distance.
Mingsi looked down at the academy from the sky and asked curiously, "Are we going to fly to the Central Plains just like that?"
"Of course not. We are going to the Chang'an City now because the nearest teleportation portal is there. " Feng Zizai turned his head and said.
"Chang'an City!" Mingsi immediately became excited when he heard this. He was looking forward to it in his heart, "I wonder if father is at home right now. . . "
After leaving the academy, they crossed the Little Spirit Mountain. Beyond that was a vast expanse of wilderness. This route had been taken by Mingsi when school started. However, his mood at this moment was different when he took it for the second time.
The first time he took an aircraft to fly in the sky, the scenery he could see was very blurry. He could only see a rough outline of the mountain forest and clouds. This time, Mingsi looked down from the sky and found that he could see a lot of things. His vision was also much clearer.
"After training, my eyesight has changed so much!" Mingsi could not help but sigh. In the sky, Mingsi was flying as he constantly turned his head to look at his surroundings. The forest, plants, and wild beasts, as well as the strange cultivators that occasionally flew by in the sky, all of these made Mingsi feel very curious.
Ever since he entered the academy to cultivate, this was the first time he was discharged from the hospital. After being sealed for half a year, just a little thing in the outside world was enough to arouse his interest.
Mingsi looked at the students beside him, then turned to look at Elder Black Feather who was waving his sleeves in front of him. He sighed and said, "Elder is indeed worthy of being an elder. The chivalrous realm is indeed worthy of being called the chivalrous realm!" With a wave of his hand, he could fly with so many people. This was already very impressive in Mingsi's eyes.
Along the way, everyone whispered to each other in twos and threes, whispering to the people beside them. Unknowingly, everyone discovered that the mountain peak in front of them had become low and the ground had become empty. Not long after, the outline of a huge city appeared in front of them.
It was a huge monster that could not be seen with a single glance. The tall border sentries were lined up hundreds of miles in front of the city. After passing through these checkpoints, it was the entrance to the west gate of Chang'an City.
Being swept across the west gate, Mingsi looked at the familiar western suburbs and houses. His heart throbbed inexplicably. His gaze was fixed on a small courtyard in the distance.
There was a human-height Dragoneye Tree in the courtyard. There were some yellow leaves on the ground at the bottom of the tree. Further in the courtyard were tightly shut doors and windows.
"It seems that there is no one. . . " Mingsi looked at the scene and knew that there was no one at home. He sighed in disappointment. It would be great if his father was here. He could call him and tell him that he was going to the Central Plains to participate in the Heavenly Tower Conference!
Mingsi's line of sight stayed on the small courtyard until he flew very far away before he turned his head back.
"That's your home, right?" Ye Qingyun said faintly.
"Yes," Ye Qingyun said. Mingsi nodded in a low voice.
"Sometimes, there is no concept of home in the true path of cultivation. " Ye Qingyun's indifferent voice sounded again.
"Why?" Mingsi was puzzled.
"You will know when you walk down this path. " Ye Qingyun looked into the distance and said with a cold tone.
"This is really strange. . . "Mingsi muttered softly when he saw that Ye Qingyun did not intend to speak anymore.
Very quickly, everyone flew over the western suburbs and arrived at the center of the city. There was a wide white stone platform there. In the center of the platform, there was a circular area surrounded by dozens of long stone pillars. Between each stone pillar, there was a distortion. Those were spatial teleportation portals that led to different places.
Elder Black Feather dragged everyone and landed on the platform. At this time, outside the circular entrance, there were two women dressed in Southern Pearl Institute instructors' robes walking towards them.
When they approached, Feng Zizai introduced them, "These two are instructors of the Water Wood Spiritual Academy. "
Feng Zizai pointed at the girl on the left and said, "This is Instructor Mu Xinmei. " Mingsi looked over and saw that Mentor Mu Xinmei was really too young. She was about twenty-five years old and had a slim body. If it were not for the mentors' robe, Mingsi would not think she was a mentor.
Mu Xinmei smiled and greeted everyone.
Feng Zizai pointed at another teacher and said, "This is Mentor Ho Yanshen. "
Hearing this, Ho Yanshen smiled and greeted everyone, "Students, do your best. " She was slightly older than Mu Xinmei, but she gave off a more intimate feeling.
"If I, Director Feng, am not around, you will have to listen to their commands when we go out this time. " He looked at the towering stone pillars in front of him and said slowly, "Let's go, let's go in. "
There was a gap in the circular area formed by the stone pillars. That was the entrance to the teleportation formation.
When Black Feather led the group through the entrance, he took out a bag of heavy coins from his portal bag and handed it to the person in charge of the entrance. The person counted the number of people and tossed the money bag. He then nodded and waved his hand, indicating for everyone to hurry in.
Mingsi turned his head as he walked and sighed, "That's a lot of money!"
"That's of course. Activating the Space Gate once requires consumption, and long-distance teleportation consumes even more. " Guu Yulou, who was standing to the side, explained, "The price of the Space Gate under the name of the Sacred Knight Hall is considered fair. If it is some private Space Gate, you will have to pay an extremely terrifying price if you wish to use it once. "
"I see. . . " Mingsi seemed to be deep in thought as he nodded his head and said. After that, he asked, "Doesn't that mean that it will take a lot of energy for a spatial cultivator to travel through space? Then how are they going to fight?"
"Space teleportation in battle doesn't consume much energy. Besides, spatial cultivators mainly train in battle techniques. The more familiar they are with spatial abilities, the more powerful they will be " Guu Yulou said slowly.
"How do you know so much?" Mingsi looked up and asked.
"Cultivation is to gain knowledge and experience. In the future, you will also understand these things. Right now. . . You are just a little devil. " Guu Yulou said in a mocking tone.
Mingsi pursed his lips and thought for a while, then refuted, "Aren't you also a little devil in front of Elder Black Feather?"
"Guu Yulou was speechless.
"Haha. . . "
While everyone was talking and laughing, they had already arrived in front of a spatial door between two of the stone pillars. Mingsi, who was standing behind the crowd, stopped in his tracks. He raised his head and looked at the top of the twisted Space Gate, where. . . There were two huge golden words floating in the air - Central Plains. Mingsi turned his head and looked around. He also saw a lot of Space Gate, but the different words on it indicated that they were transported to different places.
"Tianling Plain, Qingzang Plain, Rainforest Plain, Sun Moon Island. . . Tsk tsk, when can I go to these places. . . " Mingsi looked at the names of the places on the spatial gates and sighed.
Hei Yu glanced at everyone, then turned towards the Space Gate that led to the Central Plains. He patted the spatial bag again, then a bright light flashed in front of him, and in the next moment. . . Mingsi and the others saw that there was suddenly an extra Space Gate in front of them. It was a light boat.
It was called a small boat because its structure was simple. However, the entire boat was huge, and it could accommodate forty to fifty people.
"This is the Spiritual Ferry, it can reduce the damage caused by long-distance teleportation to the human body. Let's go. " Hei Yu waved his hand and jumped onto the boat. "
" Spiritual Ferry. . . "Mingsi muttered and also jumped onto the boat with the others.
Hei Yu extended both of his hands after everyone had boarded the Spiritual Ferry. With a flip of his hand, a distorted light curtain slowly covered the entire Spiritual Ferry, including everyone else. After doing all of this, he once again activated his Spiritual Qi. Immediately, the Spiritual Ferry seemed to have sensed something. It actually started to move forward slowly. After which, it accelerated and plunged into the distorted Space Gate.
