A group of people set off the next morning.
This time, the escort team was especially huge, it included ten inner-elders and fifty outer-elders, all of them riding on eight Wind Vultures.
Three days later, the group left the Windy Nation.
“Outside the Windy Nation, danger can be found everywhere, we all have to be extra careful.” The Head Elder let out a resonating voice using his Zhen Qi.
“Yes!”
Some elders who have been to the South Zhuo Region understood this more than the others.
Wind Vultures were amazingly strong and powerful. They were each carrying eight people as easily as carrying air, and still maintained supersonic speed all the way. However, any living creature would eventually get tired, therefore, the Head Elder would usually find a place to take a rest every two days, and then they would continue on their journey.
Dazzling lightning bolts flashed across the air while ear-piercing thunder resounded throughout the sky, but the group of Wind Vultures maintained their perfectly stable flight. They were fifth-grade demonic flying beasts, which could fly under any sort of weather.
Luo Hanshan raised his head, he took a glance at the sky and then said as he grinned, “I heard that there are three layers of sky above our world, the first one is called Amazing Sky, it contains the four natural elements, which are lightning, fire, water and the wind, the inner space is extremely violent, any martial artist under the Astral Reaching Realm would be completely crushed in there; the second layer of the sky is called Extreme Void, not even Astral Reaching Realm martial artists could survive there; the top layer is called Above Heaven, where any human being, except the Life and Death Realm martial artists, would absolutely die, even their souls would vanish.”
Amazing Sky, Extreme Void, Above Heaven!
Ye Chen glanced at Xu Jing and said, “Senior sister, your Golden Three Realm Art was created based upon these three layers of sky, wasn’t it?”
Xu Jing responded blandly, “How can the Golden Three Realm Art even be compared with the three layers of the sky? It’s far from being comparable to them.”
Followed by a sudden and thunderous sizzling noise, a lightning bolt abruptly struck towards Ye Chen and the others standing around him. The Head Elder raised his hand and snuffed the lightning bolt and said, “As long as we’re not in the Amazing Sky layer, these lightning bolts can do us no harm, so don’t worry.”
“The True Spirit Continent is indeed interesting, there are too many things that I don’t know about yet.” Exclaimed Ye Chen in his mind. In the world where he came from, almost anyone could be killed by a slight strike from lightning, and the lighting in that world was far less powerful than the lightning found in the True Spirit Continent. After all, that world barely contained any natural Yuan Qi, while this world was filled with dense and pure natural Yuan Qi, these two worlds were not even on the same level. Just now, a fierce lightning bolt had been snuffed out by the Head Elder so easily, that it had seriously shocked Ye Chen.
As the thick layer of clouds was blown away, it started to rain. Fortunately, the Wind Vultures had been flying above the layers of clouds, this allowed the group of people to not have to worry about the rain.
A while later, the air in front of the group suddenly became violent.
Visibly, a huge, hazy, grey gale swooshed straight down from the top. Inside of it, there were dazzling lightning bolts and electric currents surrounding a faint silhouette of a human.
“Astral Reaching Realm martial artist! Let’s take a detour!” The Head Elder’s expression instantly changed, as he said while he directed the Windy Vulture to turn in the air, it seemed that he did not dare to go straight towards that place.
The gale suddenly dissipated as all those lightning bolts also dimmed down, then a human silhouette suddenly appeared right in front of the troops. It was a middle-aged man of an average height, he had pale skin, and was wearing a large blue cloak with small lightning bolts sparkling on his hair. He was giving off a pressure that directly reached their souls, this made all of them not even dare to think about resisting.
“Who are you?”
“Sorry for the disturbance,” said the Head Elder with a pale look, he cupped his hands and politely greeted the man, “I am the Head Elder of the Windy Nation’s Sky Cloud Martial School.”
“Sky Cloud Martial School!” The middle-aged man laughed out and said, “So you’re from Xian Yunzi, the old bastard’s school, ha, him and me, we're old friends, you can just call me Thunder Freer.”
‘Thunder Freer! What a potent name!’ thought Ye Chen.
