Amidst the starlight that filled the sky, a quaint and huge mansion appeared before Cheng Hao and the others.
"Congratulations, generals. If there's nothing else, why don't we go in and get our rewards?" Fushe hurriedly walked out of the Starlord's estate, then smiled towards Cheng Hao and Lin Xi. Gongsun Waner was behind him as well.
"Let's go in, then." Cheng Hao nodded. He was quite eager to receive the rewards of the Fogstone Army.
"Ordinary Elder God soldiers wouldn't be able to acquire the treasures and techniques you just received, even if they spent an entire chaos cycle trying to acquire them." Fushe was rather envious. He immediately led Cheng Hao and the others into the estate.
.....
The first thing they did was collect their battle armor. As generals, Cheng Hao and Lin Xi were given suits of armor that were known as top-grade chaos armors in this plane. They were forged from strange stones found within the primordial chaos, and in terms of toughness, they were even tougher than Cheng Hao's own body.
Cheng Hao and Lin Xi naturally wouldn't let treasures like these go to waste. They immediately transformed the armor into long robes and put them on.
Gongsun Waner's armor was quite a bit weaker, but despite that, she was still much more powerful. So long as she didn't run into any World-level experts, she would be able to stay alive.
"These are jade talismans containing the various techniques of our Fogstone lineage." One jade talisman after another was floating within a dark hall. Thousands upon thousands of them glowed with light, and Fushe pointed at the jade talismans as he explained, "The ones with the weakest glow are ordinary techniques, the ones with the strongest glow are top-tier techniques, and the ones with the brightest glow are supreme techniques that cannot be taught to outsiders."
"There are a total of twelve supreme techniques that cannot be taught to outsiders. Only the generals of the Fogstone Army and the disciples of our Fogstone lineage are qualified to learn them," Fushe said.
"Choose carefully." By the side, Fushe Island Master said, "The general can choose ten ordinary techniques, or just one peak technique, or a portion of the absolute arts. As for Miss Gongsun, she can only choose one ordinary technique."
Cheng Hao nodded and finally chose a method called "Fantasy World Post".
Originally, the most powerful technique of the Fogstone lineage should have been the [Fogstone Apocalypse] technique. This was a technique that could train one's physical body and divine power. If one's physical body was fogstone, it would dramatically increase the toughness of one's body and allow one's physical strength to skyrocket.
However, after pondering for a moment, Cheng Hao did not choose this seemingly powerful cultivation method in the end.
This cultivation method had a fatal flaw, which was that once the divine power was exhausted, the physical body would completely turn into fogstone, and even the Yuan Spirit would turn into fogstone as well. The person would completely die, and no matter how much vitality they had, they would not be able to revive.
To Cheng Hao, who was so powerful that he could even revive from a single drop of blood, this was a rather weak technique.
As for the [Fantasy World Post] technique, it was a cultivation method for illusions. Once it was mastered, one would be able to create an illusory world of illusions. It was a bit similar to Wang Lin's Dream-Dao technique back in the Renegade Immortal World!
Given that Cheng Hao's Yuan Spirit had reached the Yang God level, this technique would definitely allow him to advance by leaps and bounds. There would be virtually no bottlenecks at all, and so it was very suitable for him.
As for Lin Xi, she chose a sword technique known as the [Fantasy World Sword Manual]. She trained in many different techniques, and she was very skilled in all sorts of divine abilities and secret arts. She also had a very deep understanding of the Dao of the sword. Most likely, she chose this sword technique because she wanted to use it as a reference to improve her own Dao of the sword.
As for Gongsun Waner, she chose an ordinary divine ability with limited power. Cheng Hao and the others naturally didn't think much of it, so they didn't pay much attention to it.
After receiving the armor technique, Cheng Hao and the others were led by Island Master Fushe to receive some chaos nectar. Thus far, Cheng Hao and the others had successfully accomplished their goal on this trip to Fogstone.
.....
Half a year later, Cheng Hao and the others had rested for a while on Fogstone before once more embarking on a new journey.
Cheng Hao and the others were riding the lizard warship through the gray sea of chaos. Using the excuse that they were going out for an adventure, they gradually left Fogstone and headed toward the legendary core region of the Grand Desert Realm.
"Young master, isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to run away after taking all the benefits?" Gongsun Waner giggled as she changed the armor she was wearing. She didn't seem to feel any guilt at all.
"What are you talking about? We're just going out for an adventure. How is that inappropriate?" Cheng Hao began to laugh as well. This trip to Fogstone had truly been a fruitful one. It truly was a joyous occasion.
Whoosh ….
Just as they were chatting and laughing, suddenly, deep within the depths of the sea of chaos, a pitch-black hole that was a million kilometers in size suddenly appeared. An enormous head slowly stretched out from within the hole, and the two blazing stars atop the head stared downwards at Cheng Hao and the others.
"Young master, could it be that the people of Fogstone have caught up to us?" Gongsun Waner swallowed nervously. She was truly frightened by the enormous head above them.
Cheng Hao didn't dare to be overconfident. Just as he was about to activate his divine ability and take Lin Xi and the others away from this world, the enormous head in the depths of the sea of chaos gently opened its mouth and inhaled. A pitch-black spacetime tunnel appeared, and Cheng Hao and the others were completely unable to resist it. They were sucked into the spacetime tunnel, and even the lizard warship was sucked into it.
Crunch. In the air above the sea of chaos, the enormous mouth closed, and the enormous head retracted back into the hole. The pitch-black hole closed once more. Everything was silent.
.....
Within the mysterious spacetime tunnel, spacetime was twisting and distorting. Cheng Hao and the others felt as though they were riding a teleportation array.
"Young master, this world is too dangerous. Let's hurry up and leave!" They had only just left Fogstone, but they had already encountered something so terrifying. Gongsun Waner didn't want to stay in this world for even a moment longer.
Whoosh!
With a wave of his sleeve, Cheng Hao pulled Gongsun Waner into Haotian Tower. Cheng Hao now understood what was going on. It seemed as though they had run into the Hegemon of the Vast Cliff Kingdom, and from the looks of it, the Hegemon was planning to kidnap them and take them to the Vast Cliff Kingdom.
Given the current situation, Gongsun Waner was no longer strong enough to follow them.
Whoosh!
After what seemed like an instant, spacetime suddenly stabilized. Ripples of spacetime spread out, and Cheng Hao and Lin Xi appeared at the peak of a towering mountain.
The mountain peak was extremely vast, and there were already many living creatures gathered here. The majority of them were cultivators, and at a glance, there were more than a thousand cultivators gathered here.
Cheng Hao put away the lizard warship, then cautiously scanned the surrounding area with Lin Xi. They found a secluded corner and waited quietly off to the side.
A short while later, space above them began to twist and distort, and yet another hundred cultivators appeared out of nowhere. These cultivators all looked quite confused and uneasy. Some hid off to the side vigilantly after appearing, while others formed cliques and began to converse with each other, as though they were trying to figure out what was going on.
