The Ancient Teleportation Formation was the core of a city. If the city was under attack, the city could use the Teleportation Formation to quickly evacuate. Secondly, reinforcements could arrive in time.
Therefore, the City Lord's Mansion of every city was located not far from the Teleportation Formation. The City Lord would personally guard the formation.
"Stop."
When Fenghao approached, two guards with extraordinary auras blocked his way and coldly shouted at him to stop.
Fenghao knitted his brows. He had a bad premonition in his heart. Although he was separated by the army, he could see that there seemed to be a problem in the teleportation ancient formation.
"Leave quickly."
Seeing that Fenghao did not move, several guards immediately pointed their cold spear tips at him. It seemed that if Fenghao made the slightest movement, they would launch a fierce attack.
"I just want to use the Teleportation Formation to go somewhere."
Feng Hao glanced at them indifferently and said without any anger.
Although the guards in front of him were all at the Martial King Realm and there were even some at the Martial Royal Realm, they were not enough to catch his attention.
"The Teleportation Formation is temporarily suspended."
The guard standing at the front, who was obviously at the peak of the Wu Huang Realm, said coldly. His aura slowly gathered, as if he was going to attack at any time.
Hearing this, Feng Hao frowned and asked. "What happened there?"
"This is not something you can ask. Leave quickly."
The tone of the guard at the peak of the Wu Huang Realm was very cold. His sharp aura spread out, as if he was trying to force Feng Hao to retreat.
"Oh."
Feng Hao looked at him in surprise.
Although he did not release his aura, the guard would not be able to see through his cultivation. Facing someone stronger than him, he did not have the slightest intention of retreating. This alone was enough to prove that he was a very qualified soldier.
He would carry out his mission unconditionally. Even if he knew he would die, he would stick to it.
Slowly, a pressure spread out from Fenghao's body. Immediately, an old man on the teleportation array turned around and looked at Fenghao, who was faintly smiling at him. After hesitating for a little, he still walked over.
"Who are you?"
Seeing how young Feng Hao was, a look of astonishment flashed across the old man's eyes.
"Kid, Feng Hao."
Feng Hao's lips curled into a faint smile as he cupped his hands towards him.
He could sense a powerful pressure coming from the old man. If he wasn't mistaken, this old man could very well be the City Lord of the Sealed Dark City.
As he spoke, Feng Hao directly handed over his Heavenly Academy jade token to the old man.
"Oh, so you're a Sacred Palace student."
There was a flash of surprise in the old man's eyes, but he soon came to a realization.
Being able to advance to the Saint realm at such a young age, it wasn't impossible for him to enter the Heavenly Academy.
Hearing his words, the eyes of the surrounding guards instantly revealed a trace of fanaticism.
The Heavenly Academy was undoubtedly the protector of the Human Race. It was also because of the existence of the Heavenly Academy that the other races didn't dare to act recklessly and the Human Race was able to maintain peace.
Without a doubt, those who could enter the Heavenly Academy were all experts.
"Follow me."
After the old man returned the jade token to Feng Hao, he brought him to the City Lord's Mansion.
"This old man is Yan Hetai. Speaking of which, I'm also from the Human Emperor's Mansion. It's just that my aptitude is limited, so I can only guard a small city."
After the two sat down, Yan Hetai's tone was a little lonely. His eyes were a little dim.
The Great Saint and Mortal Saint were two different existences. If one couldn't advance to the Great Saint realm, then their status wouldn't be high.
"So it's Senior Brother Yan."
Feng Hao bowed again. The smile at the corner of his mouth was much wider.
After all, they were both from the Human Emperor's Mansion. Outside, they were one and the same.
"Haha, what's the matter, Junior Brother?"
Seeing that he was so polite, Yan Hetai smiled and asked politely.
"To be honest, Senior Brother Yan, I came here because of the incident in the Mysterious Underworld Sky. Now, the Newcomer Grand Competition will start in a month, so I want to use the teleportation array to return to the Heavenly Academy."
Fenghao said with a half-truth and half-lie.
"Newcomer Grand Competition."
Hearing this, the smile on Yan Hetai's face stiffened. Then, he shook his head and said, "If Junior Brother wants to rush back to participate in the Newcomer Grand Competition, it's probably too late."
"Why?"
The bad premonition in Feng Hao's heart was on the verge of erupting. Thinking about the abnormality of the teleportation array, he blurted out, "Senior Brother Yan, could it be that something happened to the teleportation array?"
"Yes."
Yan Hetai's eyes flashed with resentment. He gritted his teeth and said, "A few days ago, it was destroyed by a Great Saint from the Shaman Spirit Clan."
"What? The teleportation array was destroyed?"
After confirming the speculation in his heart, Feng Hao's face instantly turned ashen.
"The Shaman Spirit Clan."
His eyes flashed fiercely.
It was conceivable that the Shaman Spirit Clan was in such a state because he had killed Wu Neng.
"Now, if I want to repair the teleportation array, I'll have to wait for the people from the Sacred Prefecture to come here. I'm afraid it'll take several months to repair it. I'm afraid it won't be able to operate for a few years …"
Speaking of which, this was also his dereliction of duty. However, how could a Mortal Saint like him stop an expert in the Great Saint Realm?
If it wasn't for the fact that a Great Saint of the Human Clan was stationed in the Sealed Underworld City, the entire Sealed Underworld City would have been destroyed by him.
"Several months …"
Hearing this, Feng Hao's eyebrows knitted tightly.
The Newcomer Grand Competition would start in a month. After a few months, it would be too late. It would be useless for him to rush back.
"Senior Brother Yan, how long will it take to get to the nearest city with a teleportation array?"
He asked, full of hope.
"Sigh …"
Seeing Fenghao's anxious appearance, Yan Hetai sighed softly. "My Sealed Nether City is located in a very remote area. It was only established because of the existence of the Mysterious Underworld Sky. With my speed, it will take me at least a month or so … It's already too late."
His words directly cut off Feng Hao's last ray of hope.
He was powerless to reverse the situation.
"Little Junior Brother, if you don't mind, you can stay here. More than a year will pass very quickly."
Yan Hetai tried to persuade him.
In his opinion, Feng Hao was only a First Stage Mortal Saint with the Lightning Pole Attribute. Although it was already very extraordinary for Feng Hao to reach this level at his age, he would not be able to play a big role in the Newcomer Grand Competition.
