Ten thousand meters in the air, Ling Yun and Ye Xingchen didn't fly directly west. Instead, they flew slightly northwest to Qingshui Wharf.
After all, Ling Yun's Qingshui Wharf mansion was on the southern shore of Qingshui Wharf, facing the sea. As long as they reached Qingshui Wharf, they would be home. That would save them a lot of trouble.
After Ye Xingchen reached the middle stage of the fifth layer of Qi Disciple, he could fly at a speed that was twice the speed of sound under normal circumstances. If he used the Meteor Moon Stride, he could reach exactly three times the speed of sound, which was about a kilometer per second.
The two of them flew at this speed. It was too fast. They only needed seven or eight minutes to reach the airspace above Qingshui Wharf.
"I think we should go into the sea. There are too many planes."
However, they only flew for two minutes before Ling Yun decisively decided to land in the sea. There were indeed too many planes. In just two minutes, they had already encountered five planes flying ten thousand meters in the air. Ling Yun had no choice but to use the Invisibility Technique continuously. It was too troublesome and exhausting.
"Swoosh swoosh!"
Ling Yun and Ye Xingchen landed like lightning and rushed directly into the sea. The Water Repellent Pearl once again opened up a blue space, enveloping the two of them.
"Who would've thought that humans would use such a method to take over the sky in this Age of Doom …"
Ling Yun frowned, shook his head, and sighed. He thought of the original Cultivation World. Those who flew in the sky were all great cultivators. There were humans and demons. Of course, most of them were birds that could blot out the sky with a flap of their wings. They would form groups of three to five, and if there was a disagreement, they would fight to the death. How carefree was that?
However, on Earth, the space of cultivators was obviously squeezed by the high-tech products developed by humans. There were planes in the sky, all kinds of ships on the sea, and cameras and electronic eyes everywhere on land.
This made Ling Yun, who had reached the peak of Qi Cultivation Stage Five and could fly again, very unhappy. He felt like he couldn't let loose and was restricted in every way.
In the short span of three days after the Demon Subduing Conference, Ling Yun had broken through two major realms. Now, he didn't need to use the Sword Kinesis Flight and could fly directly. He was in high spirits and really wanted to throw caution to the wind and roam the world to enjoy the feeling of freedom. However, his rationality repeatedly reminded him that he couldn't do that.
Because if that was the case, it would truly be too shocking.
"It's probably because we're flying at the wrong altitude."
Ye Xingchen could feel Ling Yun's depression. "As far as I know, most commercial flights are between seven to twelve thousand meters. We were flying at ten thousand meters just now, which happens to be the optimal altitude for most commercial flights. That's why we encountered more planes."
"If we fly at an altitude of 6,000 meters or above, we can completely avoid those planes."
"Bullshit!"
Ling Yun rolled his eyes and retorted, "Xing Chen, what kind of logic is that? Since we can fly, it's up to us to decide how high and how fast we can fly. Why should we hide from those planes? "
This was Ling Yun's logic. In his opinion, Ye Xingchen's reasoning was akin to someone punching him. Instead of thinking about how to retaliate, he stood there thinking about why the other party punched him, what he did wrong, and how he should correct himself next time.
Ye Xingchen's good intentions turned out to be malicious intent. She was also displeased with Ling Yun's rebuke. She immediately glared at him and exploded, "Fine, fine, fine! You're good! Then go out and fly. Don't go invisible, just fly close to the plane. That way, you can even chat directly with the beauties inside! "
"…"
Ling Yun's temper was instantly extinguished. He scratched his head in embarrassment and laughed sheepishly. "Hehe, Xing Chen, don't be angry. I'm just complaining …"
"Pfft!"
Ye Xingchen couldn't help but giggle at Ling Yun's teasing. Of course, she wasn't really angry. "Really, if you really want to fly to your heart's content, I'll accompany you to fly twenty thousand meters high next time. I guarantee no planes will disturb us!"
Twenty thousand meters high!
"No way."
It was Ling Yun's turn to shake his head. He was very serious. "Every thousand meters from the ground, the air temperature will drop by 0.6 degrees. The temperature at twenty thousand meters is about negative one hundred degrees, or even lower. Coupled with the strong winds, cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Cultivation won't be able to withstand it at all."
After explaining, Ling Yun's depression was more or less dispelled. It was just a small annoyance. It wasn't a big deal.
"Take it."
Ling Yun suddenly handed the Water Repellent Pearl to Ye Xingchen. Then, in a flash, he rushed out of the Water Repellent Pearl's space and directly into the deep sea.
"Where are you going? Uh … "
Ye Xingchen didn't know what Ling Yun was going to do suddenly, but she quickly understood.
Ling Yun was in the deep sea, using the Omnipotent Water Control Technique, shuttling back and forth like lightning. He was actually catching fish!
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Ling Yun's speed was really too fast. In the water, he used the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability. Sometimes, he directly used the Water Gate to traverse hundreds of meters in a breath. He shuttled between all kinds of fish, and in the blink of an eye, he caught dozens of fish. Each fish was more than half a meter long and lively when he caught them. However, in the blink of an eye, he used the Arctic Ice Technique to freeze them and put them in the Taixu Ring.
Ye Xingchen grabbed the Water Repellent Pearl and chased after Ling Yun's figure in the sea. She was dumbfounded!
"Swoosh!"
Ling Yun returned to the Water Repellent Space, finally satisfied. He winked at Ye Xingchen and said with a smile, "It wasn't easy to come to the East Sea. How could I not bring some seafood back?"
"…"
Ye Xingchen was completely speechless. Ling Yun's train of thought was really unparalleled. This guy was just complaining about the living space of cultivators, but in the blink of an eye, he rushed into the sea to catch seafood …
Was this … another way of venting?
"Come, let's go to the bottom of the sea and see if we can catch a big lobster or something …"
Ye Xingchen was stunned, but Ling Yun was in high spirits. He dragged Ye Xingchen directly to the bottom of the sea. The two of them expanded the Water Repellent Pearl to the limit, but they purposely didn't push away the water that was more than a meter deep from the seabed. Ling Yun swam around in the Water Repellent Space. As long as he saw a big lobster, he would raise his hand to freeze it and put it in the Taixu Ring. The two of them were having a lot of fun.
"I can reach up to the Nine Heavens and catch the Turtle in the Five Oceans …"
Ling Yun was very pleased. He was even muttering to himself. The joy in his heart was indescribable.
These were all real seafood. They were definitely fresh and delicious.
"Ling Yun, you've really played with this Water Repellent Pearl to perfection …"
Ye Xingchen was naturally very happy. She only caught a few lobsters and was too lazy to catch more because there were simply too many of them.
At the same time, Ye Xingchen was secretly shocked. She only realized at this moment that the Water Repellent Pearl in her hand was an incredible treasure!
"Hehe, this is nothing. In the future, when we go deep into the ocean to find the Eye of the Sea, we'll have to rely on this treasure."
Ling Yun didn't stop catching lobsters. He even caught a big turtle, but he wasn't interested in it. He weighed it in his hand a few times before throwing it back into the sea.
"Let's go, haha, we'll finally have seafood to eat in the future! There's no need to buy it! "
After a while, Ling Yun finally stopped. He stopped tormenting the fishes and prawns in the sea and focused on hurrying along.
Seeing that Ling Yun was finally focused on hurrying along, Ye Xingchen said coquettishly, "Look at how happy you are. Those who don't know would think that you've gotten some great benefits!"
Ling Yun straightened his face. "You don't understand!"
"Xingchen, we cultivators cultivate so hard and go against the heavens. What is it for? We seek immortality, but what do we seek for? "
"What we seek is definitely not a boring and tasteless immortality. It's what I said just now. You can reach up to the nine heavens to pluck the moon, and dive down to the five oceans to catch turtles!"
"First, there must be fun. Happiness is the most important. Everything else is secondary."
Ye Xingchen listened seriously. Her beautiful eyes sparkled as if she had understood something.
Just like that, the two chatted and played as they slowly hurried along the sea. After about ten minutes, they finally arrived at Qingshui Wharf.
"We've arrived at Qingshui Wharf. Let's go take a look near the water surface."
Ling Yun and Ye Xingchen found a secluded and quiet water area and gradually approached the surface. Then, Ling Yun released his divine sense to the limit!
A full eight thousand meter radius of his divine sense!
"Xingchen, do you see that? My Qingshui Wharf villa is on that mountain on the southern shore of Qingshui Wharf."
In the blue water-repellent space, Ling Yun raised his hand and pointed. Their gazes passed through the shallow seawater and landed on the mountain peak on the southern shore of Qingshui Wharf.
"Yes, I see it."
Ye Xingchen nodded. Then, she turned her head and said to Ling Yun, "Ling Yun, I won't be accompanying you back to Qingshui. Let's part ways here temporarily."
Ling Yun was stunned. "Part ways temporarily? Why? "
Ye Xingchen smiled sweetly. She raised her hand and pointed at the northern shore of Qingshui Wharf. "Anyway, I have nothing else to do when I return to Qingshui with you. Do you see that? Once we reach the northern shore, we'll reach Hudong. Our Hudong branch of the Assassins Organization is there. I'm going there to incorporate them. "
With that, Ye Xingchen looked deeply at Ling Yun and said faintly, "When you're done with your matters in Qingshui City, contact me again. I'll accompany you to the Heavenly Mountain Heavenly Sword Sect then."
Ye Xingchen's beautiful eyes clearly revealed her reluctance to part, but the meaning she expressed was very firm.
"Sigh …"
Ling Yun sighed in his heart. Xingchen was really too sensible!
Ye Xingchen obviously didn't want to be a third wheel and didn't want to make things difficult for him. That was why he chose to part ways with him here and let him return to Qingshui.
"Uh … Actually, the reason I'm going back to Qingshui City is to make arrangements for the two wyrms, treat Aunty's injuries, and settle down the disciples of the Tranquil Sect …"
"Shh …"
Ye Xingchen suddenly placed his index finger on Ling Yun's lips. "Stop! You don't have to explain anything to me. After returning to Qingshui City, you can do whatever you want, but you have to be quick. "
As she spoke, Ye Xingchen waved the Water Avoidance Pearl in her hand and said with a sweet smile, "But I'm taking this Water Avoidance Pearl with me! If you dare to do anything bad, I will never return it to you! "
"I'm leaving!"
After saying that, Ye Xingchen twisted her body and rushed into the deep waters of Qingshui Bay. She wanted to cross Qingshui Bay, which was more than a hundred kilometers wide from north to south, and go directly to Hudong.
Boom!
The moment Ye Xingchen left, Ling Yun activated the Mixed Elements Uniting Law Shield. He stood in the water and touched his lips.
The lingering fragrance was still there, but the fragrance was faintly discernible.
"Sigh, where else can I find such a good woman?"
Ling Yun was very touched and smiled knowingly. Then, he opened the Water Gate and quickly arrived at a remote cliff on the shore of the East Sea. Then, he flew ashore.
