Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation In the dark universe, the distance between the Earth and the Moon was actually very close. It only took a second for light to travel from the Earth to the Moon.
However, for the Obsidian Airship and the airship assembly traveling between the Earth and the Moon, this was a long journey.
The Obsidian Airship dragged the airship assembly through space for about a month, slowly approaching the Earth.
The blue planet grew larger and larger in everyone's field of vision until it completely occupied their entire field of vision. Only the huge arc in the distance could vaguely make out the outline of the Earth.
On the way, everyone took turns to be on duty and cultivate in an orderly manner.
Musk's Dragon Airship and the airship assembly were also very capable and did not have any malfunctions.
Therefore, although the journey was lonely and boring, it was still relatively smooth.
At this time, the Obsidian Airship and the airship assembly were close to the Earth's orbit. According to the plan, everyone should transfer to the Obsidian Airship.
Xia Ruofei controlled the Obsidian Airship to draw an arc while slowly slowing down. The airship and the airship were not rigidly connected. If they directly decelerated, the airship assembly would definitely crash into them.
Finally, everyone put on their spacesuits and orderly exited the airship.
Xia Ruofei was still the first to return to the Obsidian Airship.
Chen Xuan was the last to exit the airship. After closing the hatch, he untied all the cables and returned to the Obsidian Airship.
Xia Ruofei's mind moved, and the airship assembly was stored in the Ring-Tu space. Although the airship assembly was useless, it could not be allowed to float in low-Earth orbit for a long time. There were spacecraft, satellites, and the like from various countries everywhere. If it was photographed, it would definitely cause a huge uproar. Moreover, if the airship assembly's orbit was not fine-tuned for a long time, it would eventually fall into the atmosphere. If it really landed on the Earth, it would cause a lot of trouble.
Musk risked his life to provide Xia Ruofei with a spacesuit and a spacesuit, so Xia Ruofei did not want to cause trouble for others.
After everyone returned to the Obsidian Airship, Xia Ruofei controlled the airship to start directly and continued to head towards Earth.
Soon, the flying ship entered the atmosphere and flew high in the sky.
When the altitude dropped to about three thousand meters, everyone took off their spacesuits. At this altitude, the oxygen content was relatively sufficient. Even ordinary people could survive, let alone these cultivators.
Everyone took a deep breath at the same time. They had breathed in the air on Earth for decades, and this was the first time they felt that the air was so familiar.
Everyone left their cabins and stood on the deck of the Obsidian Airship, looking down.
At this time, the flying boat was sweeping across the sea at high speed, and below it was the Pacific Ocean.
When Xia Ruofei piloted the Obsidian Airship, he deliberately avoided the traditional flight routes. Additionally, even if a plane passed through this area, the cruising altitude of transoceanic flights was above 10,000 m. Therefore, the altitude of 3,000 m was very safe. At this altitude and in this area, the probability of colliding with other aircraft was much lower than winning the first prize in the lottery.
Moreover, Xia Ruofei had been releasing his mental power to explore ahead. If there was a very small probability of an accident, with Xia Ruofei's current mental power and reaction speed, he could completely avoid it in advance.
Xia Ruofei said while piloting the Obsidian Airship, "Fellow Daoists, after crossing this sea, we can return to Huaxia. Everyone has worked hard!"
"Brother Ruofei, the one who has worked the hardest is you!" Chen Xuan said, "If it weren't for you piloting the Obsidian Airship, we wouldn't have been able to reach that secret realm no matter what!"
Yangliu also said with a smile, "Yes! Fellow Daoist Xia also deserves great credit for cracking the Rising Dragon Token. Speaking of which, we all benefited from it! "
Xia Ruofei smiled slightly and said, "Without the tokens provided by everyone, we wouldn't have been able to crack anything at all, so you don't have to be so polite. We have experienced life and death together, and this is not something an ordinary friendship can compare to! "
Everyone chatted while admiring the scenery below the airship.
In fact, it was night now, and below them was the unchanging sea, so there was really nothing to see. However, everyone had been away from home for more than two months, and most of the time was sailing in the dark space, so even if it was a monotonous sea, everyone still enjoyed watching it.
The Obsidian Airship flew extremely fast, and soon crossed the Pacific Ocean. Xia Ruofei controlled the Obsidian Airship to lower its altitude again, and at the same time, to fly south.
Soon, the Obsidian Airship arrived in the sky above Nanhai Province.
Xia Ruofei scanned with his mental power, roughly determined the direction, and then controlled the Obsidian Airship to fly toward the resort they had set off from.
...
Nanhai Province, Qiongya City suburb, Coconut Charm Resort.
It was now close to midnight, and there was silence everywhere.
More than two months ago, Coconut Charm Resort closed for business in the name of renovation. There was not a single tourist in the huge resort, so it seemed even more deserted.
This resort was one of the properties of the Tianyi Sect in the secular world. In order to receive Chen Nanfeng, Mu Sheng, Liu Mansha, and the others, the entire resort was cleared, and no guests were received.
Xia Ruofei and the others' expedition team took off on the Obsidian Airship and went straight to the moon. Chen Nanfeng and the others did not leave, and directly stayed here.
Chen Nanfeng and the others had high hopes for this exploration of the secret realm.
Complicated encryption methods, magical music selection, a secret realm hundreds of thousands of miles away...
All of this meant that the secret realm they explored this time was of a higher level than all the secret realms they had explored before, and most of them contained great opportunities.
Two to three months was nothing to Golden Core cultivators like Chen Nanfeng. Sometimes, they could go into seclusion for more than that, so the three sect masters stayed in the Coconut Charm Resort, waiting for Xia Ruofei and the others to return.
Therefore, the date of the resort's reopening was far away.
In such a large manor, only the three leaders and some disciples in the Refinement Stage who were in charge of security work were living there. The staff in the original resort had been temporarily dismissed, but they were not fired and their salaries were still paid. However, during the period when Chen Nanfeng and the others were staying in the resort, the ordinary staff were not allowed to enter the manor.
At this time, the empty resort was very quiet. In the three small single-family villas, Chen Nanfeng, Mu Sheng, and Liu Mansha were cultivating cross-legged.
In the secular world, the spiritual energy was very heterogeneous. Only at midnight and noon could one barely cultivate. At other times, one could only cultivate with the help of spirit crystals and origin crystals. It was impossible to absorb the spiritual energy in the air.
Therefore, in order to save cultivation resources, the three sect masters would start cultivating every time at midnight or noon. This way, they could more or less increase their cultivation base a little, and they did not need to consume spirit crystals or origin crystals.
Chen Nanfeng was the first to notice the Obsidian Airship.
He, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes and released his mental power to investigate. Then, he stood up and walked out of the villa.
Chen Nanfeng's face showed a trace of excitement and anticipation as he looked up at the sky.
A few seconds later, Liu Mansha and Mu Sheng flew over on their swords from two different directions.
"Sect Master Chen!" The two of them greeted.
"You guys noticed it too?" Chen Nanfeng asked.
Mu Sheng nodded with a smile and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Little Brother Xia and the others."
Liu Mansha's expression was a little cold. She said indifferently, "It's the Obsidian Airship. I can feel the airflow of the airship during its flight, so I'm very sure!"
After about half a minute, the Obsidian Airship finally flew above the Coconut Charm Resort.
Xia Ruofei had already discovered Chen Nanfeng and the others, so he directly controlled the Obsidian Airship to fly to the small villa.
At this time, there was no need for mental power detection. Chen Nanfeng and the other two could clearly see the Obsidian Airship slowly approaching in the sky with their naked eyes.
Soon, the airship hovered about eight meters above the ground. It was not that Xia Ruofei wanted to stop at such a high altitude, but the resort villa's greenery was too good. There were trees and turf everywhere. If they flew a little lower, they might rub against the trees in the yard.
Moreover, to a cultivator, such a height was naturally nothing when they had the support of the cable.
"Fellow Daoists! We're here! " Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Next is the Coconut Charm Resort. Sect Master Chen, Sect Master Mu, and Valley Master Liu are all waiting for us below!"
Chen Xuan, Yang Liu, and the others were also looking down from the deck of the Obsidian Airship, so they naturally saw that their Sect Master or Valley Master were already waiting here.
As soon as the airship stopped, everyone jumped down one after another.
The Qi Refinement Stage cultivators with weaker cultivation bases used the cable to borrow a little force and landed steadily on the ground.
Xia Ruofei was the last to leave the Obsidian Airship. He left with Ling Qingxue on the Blue Touring Immortal Sword. At the same time, he put away the airship with a thought.
Chen Nanfeng and the other two hurriedly greeted them.
"Xuan 'er! You're back! It's good that you're back! It's good that you're back! "Chen Nanfeng said with a trace of excitement on his face.
However, when he glanced around, his expression changed slightly. An ominous premonition arose in his heart. He asked with a slightly trembling voice, "Xuan 'er, where's your Martial Uncle Shen?"
Chen Xuan's face was a little gloomy. He lowered his head and said, "Father, Elder Shen … has fallen in the secret realm …"
On the other side, Mu Sheng also noticed that Elder Muhua of the Surging Waves Sect was missing from the team. He could not help but change his expression slightly.
Without waiting for him to ask, Mu Jianfei said with grief, "Father, Third Uncle, he … has fallen …"
Muhua was the third in this generation of disciples in the family, so Mu Jianfei called him Third Uncle.
This news was like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads. Chen Nanfeng and Muhua were stunned.
A mid-Jindan Stage elder and an early-Jindan Stage elder had fallen in the secret realm just like that. To their respective sects, this was an extremely heavy blow.
Especially since the cultivation environment on Earth was deteriorating. It could be said that it was extremely difficult for a Qi Refinement Stage cultivator to break through to the Golden Core Stage in such an environment. Therefore, every Golden Core Stage elder was extremely important to their respective sects.
Liu Mansha was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the two cultivators from the Soaring Flower Valley had returned safely. She did not expect the secret realm to be so dangerous, so she was also scared.
Chen Nanfeng frowned slightly. He was mentally prepared. After all, this secret realm was far above the moon. It was definitely not simple. Moreover, it would take about two months to travel back and forth in the vast universe. There were all kinds of possibilities for danger.
However, Chen Nanfeng, Mu Sheng, and Liu Mansha all considered the possibility of losing disciples in the Qi Refinement Stage. After all, their cultivation levels were very low. They thought that even if the exploration of the secret realm did not go smoothly, the Golden Core Stage elders should be able to survive.
In particular, Shen Tianfang was definitely the one with the highest cultivation level in the exploration team. He was the one who was least likely to die. In the end, he really died.
Chen Nanfeng was indeed a veteran Golden Core Stage cultivator. He had been in charge of the Tianyi Sect for a long time, so after hearing the bad news, he did not lose his mind for too long.
Soon, he frowned slightly and asked, "What happened? Why did Elder Shen and Elder Mu die? "
Chen Xuan said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, father. I don't know the reason for the death of the two elders …"
"You don't know?" Chen Nanfeng couldn't help but raise his voice. "Your Shishu Shen has died. You can't even find out the reason?"
Seeing this, Xia Ruofei stepped forward and said, "Sect Leaders, our experience in the secret realm this time is a bit special. Everyone was transmitted to different small spaces, and the process of breaking through was done alone. Therefore, we only know that the two elders have died, but we don't know what they experienced and why they suddenly died …"
Hearing this, Chen Nanfeng nodded slightly and said, "This is not the place to talk. Let's go back to my residence first. You can talk about it in detail!"
In fact, after Xia Ruofei sent Chen Xuan and the others to this resort, he planned to leave. However, since Chen Nanfeng said so, he would definitely not insist on leaving immediately. What if Chen Nanfeng began to suspect that he had something to do with the deaths of Shen Tianfang and Muhua?
"Okay!" Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Let's go then!"
The group soon arrived at the small villa where Chen Nanfeng lived. Everyone came to the villa's living room and sat down one by one.
Chen Nanfeng said in a deep voice, "Xuan 'er, tell me about your exploration of the secret realm. Be careful not to leave out anything. Tell me all the details you can think of!"
"Okay, father!" Chen Xuan said, "According to the information on the token that we deciphered before, we found the entrance to the secret realm on the back of the moon. Then, we came to a magnificent tower called the Training Tower. All our tasks were completed in the Training Tower …"
Chen Xuan continued to recount his experience in the Tower of Trials without leaving out any details.
