Seeing Dongfang Xiao's smug look, Wutian couldn't help but shake his head. If the little guy was here, the two of them would definitely hit it off and become close friends.
As the saying goes, it's hard to refuse hospitality! Under Dongfang Xiao's persuasion, Wutian drank a lot of hard liquor that night. However, the alcohol was evaporated by the elemental energy, so he didn't get drunk.
The banquet only ended at midnight. Dongfang Xiao and Shi Jiaoyun both left, while Wutian stayed at the Fengyue Brothel. As for the expenses, Shi Jiaoyun took the initiative to pay for it. It could be considered a way of repaying his kindness!
A bright moon hung in the sky, sprinkling down rays of moonlight, covering Fengyang City with a layer of silver. The night sky was dotted with stars, twinkling with starlight. It was a dazzling and somewhat lonely scene.
In the sky above Fengyang City, Wutian stood quietly in the air, looking down at the vast land below. It was as if he was watching Ruchen fight with the heroes.
Half a month of fighting to the death was not only physically exhausting for anyone, but it was also mentally tormenting. One could imagine what sort of situation Confucian had been in at the time. Facing an endless stream of enemies, he had been struggling between despair and hope.
"Desire, treasures, status, and power, are they really more important than family?"
Thinking of Ruchen's experience, Wutian couldn't help but think of Longhe. For his own selfishness, he plunged the Dragon Village into eternal damnation. He thought of Huoshi. For his own desires, he led the Fire Cloud Sect to destruction.
He also thought of the Asura Palace Lord and Kong Lingzi. For their own desires, they didn't hesitate to harm the most outstanding disciples of their sects, robbing them of their bodies and talents.
Perhaps in their eyes, they were the most important. However, in Wutian's eyes, all of these were just worldly possessions. Compared to family and friendship, they were insignificant.
After an unknown period of time, Wutian withdrew his gaze and sat cross-legged in the air. His hands began to slowly form seals.
He was using the art of fortune-telling. After all these years, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Hundred Dynasties Stage. He wanted to see if he could see further and clearer in that ethereal world and find the mystery of his birth.
The familiar heaven and earth, the familiar towering mountain, soon appeared in front of his eyes, and the power of his bloodline, which was thicker than water, also appeared spontaneously.
Drawing his line of sight closer, Wutian finally saw two blurry figures in the palace atop the giant peak. From their silhouettes, it was a man and a woman, but he couldn't see their faces clearly because they were covered by mist.
Between the two of them, there was a baby that looked like it had just been born. Similarly, it was hard to see clearly, but when Wutian's gaze came into contact with the baby, his heart suddenly trembled.
An incomparably real and intimate feeling rushed into his heart like a tide. It was as if the baby was him, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"Is that baby really me? If so, could those two figures be my parents? "
Wutian was anxious. He quickly drew his line of sight closer, but even though he clearly felt that they were right in front of him, even though he clearly felt that they were right in front of him, even though he clearly felt that they were right in front of him, he just couldn't see their faces clearly.
In fact, Wutian could even feel the joy, love, and kindness of the two as they looked at the baby in their arms …
The intimate feelings and the power of his bloodline flooded Wutian's entire soul. He was like a helpless child, reaching out with his hands to desperately grab at the two figures. He madly shouted, but it was as if there was a barrier separating him and he couldn't transmit his voice.
It was unknown whether it was because of the connection between their bloodlines, or whether it was by accident, but the two figures holding the baby suddenly looked over. He still couldn't see their faces clearly, and it was like looking at flowers in the mist, ethereal and illusory.
"Are they looking at me?"
Wutian was a little lost in thought. He wasn't sure if the two of them had sensed his existence and thus looked at him, or if it was purely by accident.
Rumble rumble rumble!
Suddenly, wild winds rose up, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled. That all-too-familiar hand that covered the heavens shattered the dome of heaven and came crashing down!
Everything in front of him instantly shattered. Wutian wanted to save him, but he was drowned by a deep sense of helplessness. He could only watch on helplessly as everything disappeared.
"Puff!"
In reality, Wutian spat out a mouthful of blood, but he didn't immediately open his eyes. It was as if he was still immersed in that feeling, or as if he wanted to imprint that feeling deeply in his heart.
Unknowingly, the sun slowly rose, dyeing the horizon with layers of red clouds. It was a beautiful sight.
Only at this moment did Wutian open his eyes and let out a long breath of turbid air. Then, he sighed softly and turned into a ray of light that flew towards Phoenix City.
…
When Wutian arrived at the Wanbao Pavilion, Dongfang Xiao was already waiting there.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Dongfang Xiao took out an animal skin scroll and tossed it to Wutian.
"This is a detailed map of the Forbidden Sect. With it, entering the depths of the Forbidden Sect will be as easy as flipping your hand. However, how to rob the Forbidden Stone and the Forbidden Stone Mine will depend on you."
Opening the animal skin scroll, Wutian took a closer look and couldn't help but nod his head in satisfaction. It was indeed as Dongfang Xiao said, the markings on it were very detailed.
"By the way, according to my spies in the Forbidden Sect, the Forbidden Stone Quarry is protected by an emperor-level restriction. Do you have the ability to break it?" Dongfang Xiao leaned back in his chair and slowly fanned himself as he asked lazily.
Wutian rolled his eyes and stretched out his hand. He said expressionlessly, "Give it to me!"
"Give what to me?" Dongfang Xiao pretended to be confused and asked doubtfully.
"You're not giving it to me?" Wutian lifted the corner of his mouth and a dangerous signal flashed in his eyes.
"Hey hey, you're the one begging me now, not the other way around. You have to understand the situation," Dongfang Xiao clamored and then laughed, "As long as you say a few nice words and flatter me, maybe I'll be in a good mood and lend you the Emperor Rank Restriction Unsealing Talisman."
"It doesn't matter. At worst, it'll just be a little hard. However, when the time comes, some people won't even be able to get a single Forbidden Stone, let alone the mine," Wutian said and didn't say anything else. He brewed a cup of fragrant tea and enjoyed it.
"Damn, I'm afraid of you."
Dongfang Xiao cursed and took out a palm-sized black Forbidden Talisman. He threw it on the tea table and warned, "I'll tell you in advance that there are only a few of these in the five continents. If you dare to take it for yourself, I won't let you go even if I have to go to heaven or hell."
"Please believe in my character," Wutian smiled faintly and picked up the black Forbidden Talisman. His soul power surged and he found that it really was an Emperor Rank Restriction Unsealing Talisman.
"Good treasure!" Wutian thought and began to plan in his heart.
"Character?"
Dongfang Xiao heard this and poked his nose. If it was someone else's character, he might believe it, but what kind of character could Wutian have? If he had any character, he wouldn't have robbed the Young Pavilion Master's mustard seed bag while he was unconscious.
"Maybe you still don't understand the importance of an Emperor Rank Restriction Unsealing Talisman. I have to explain it to you," Dongfang Xiao was really worried and even began to regret giving the Restriction Unsealing Talisman to Wutian.
However, before he could explain, Wutian waved his hand and a realm gate quickly opened. Then, with a whoosh, he shot in and quickly disappeared in front of Dongfang Xiao.
"Bastard!" Seeing this, Dongfang Xiao was furious on the spot. His eyes flashed and he disappeared from where he stood.
Dongfang Xiao naturally went to the Forbidden Sect because he was really worried.
However, he wouldn't go deep into the Forbidden Sect. Instead, he would wait outside the Forbidden Sect. When Wutian came out, he would stop him on the spot and give him what he needed to give and what he needed to return. Only then would he let him leave.
…
The Forbidden Sect was located in the Floating City.
The Floating City was very famous in the Zhongyao Continent and almost everyone knew about it. The reason was that there were two giants in the city, the Forbidden Sect and the Tool Sect!
If the Wanbao Pavilion was the ruler of the Million Jun City, then in the Floating City, the Tool Sect and the Forbidden Sect were the kings.
Moreover, the Floating City had a world-famous characteristic, which was that the entire city was floating in the air.
It was said that the ancestors of the two sects had a very good relationship. When they first established the sects, they couldn't find a suitable place in the Zhongyao Continent.
Later on, the two of them worked together to refine a huge mountain range and raised it into the sky. From then on, the Forbidden Sect and Artefact Sect were born here. Over time, a huge city with a population of over a million was formed.
"What a majestic city. It's hard to imagine just how strong the ancestors of the Forbidden Sect and the Tool Sect were."
On the peak of a mountain below the Floating City, Wutian looked up at the huge city above. A sense of grandeur and grandeur arose from his heart.
"They're obviously showing off." The little guy pursed his lips. Then, his eyes lit up and he urged, "Son Of Heaven, why don't we think of a way to take the Floating City for ourselves?"
In the Star Realm, Han Tian and the others had entered a deep state of cultivation. Only the active little guy was bored. Therefore, he ignored Wutian's objection and insisted on coming out.
"You have a hole in your head." Wutian rolled his eyes at him.
To be honest, this idea was a little tempting. However, he knew his own limits. With his current strength, as long as his identity was exposed, he might not be able to walk out alive, let alone have any ideas about the Floating City.
Whoosh whoosh!
At this moment, a few young men and women in black rushed over from afar. Soon, they arrived at the edge of the Floating City.
As soon as they arrived, a white-robed old man appeared out of nowhere. When he looked at them, his turbid eyes flashed with a shocking light.
Seeing the white-robed old man, the young men and women weren't surprised at all. It was as if they had already known. They each took out a token and held it out.
The old man's gaze swept across the tokens one by one. Only then did the light in his eyes recede like the tide. A smile appeared on his old face.
With a flip of his hand, a pitch-black Unlocking Talisman appeared in the old man's hand. Then, he pressed it toward the seemingly empty void. Immediately, the place flashed with a hazy light. Then, a door big enough for one person to pass through quickly appeared.
After they entered one after another, the white-robed old man waved his hand and the Unlocking Talisman shot back into his hand. The door in the void quickly closed and the light gradually dimmed. Everything looked the same as before.
"City Defense Restriction."
Seeing this, Wutian wasn't surprised.
As the base of the Forbidden Sect, it was expected that there would be a City Defense Restriction. The reason why he didn't rashly enter was because he wanted to see if he would need other things, such as the things inside the identity token.
As expected, everyone in Floating City had their own identity medallion. However, the appearance of the white-robed old man was a little unexpected.
"Looks like I have to think of a way to get an identity token." Wutian muttered.
