After Miao Yi greeted her, Cheng Aofang asked, "Speak. You don't come to me for no reason. Why are you looking for me?"
Previously, Miao Yi wasn't confident that the Sorcerer would fulfill his promise. That was why he only fooled Yue Tianbo with the Hive Gang incident, and didn't go around fooling everyone else. Now that the Sorcerer was here, he had to make up for it with Cheng Aofang.
"I might have to go on a long journey. I don't know when I can return. I'm afraid I won't be able to return in time for the year-end tribute. When the time comes, I'm afraid I'll have to find someone to replace me. I've come to apologize to the Palace Lord." Miao Yi cupped his fists.
Cheng Aofang raised her brows slightly. "Deacon Miao, you've just finished paying the annual tribute, and you're already thinking about the next one. Aren't you worrying a little too much? Where are you going on a long journey?! No matter how low your cultivation is, you should be able to circle around the small world in a year's time, right? "
Miao Yi pointed upwards and smiled bitterly. "I can't tell you! Actually, I don't want to be burdened either, but I have no other choice! "
Cheng Aofang looked at his hand gesture and understood that it was a secret mission from above. He was the Golden Palace Deacon after all, and had the authority to order him around. Since it was an order from above, she wouldn't ask too much. She only reminded him, "It's fine for me to be absent for a while, but you have to inform the Overlord."
Miao Yi said, "Rest assured, Palace Lord. The Overlord knows about it."
With that, Cheng Aofang was even more certain that the Overlord had assigned him some secret mission. She nodded and said, "Since the Overlord has no objections, there's nothing much for me to do. Go early and return early!"
"Thank you, Palace Lord!"
Miao Yi turned around and chatted with Cheng Aofang for a while. The topic inevitably drifted to the matter of Su Li complaining to the capital city. That incident had alarmed the Overlord, and Cheng Aofang had long wanted to ask about it. However, she didn't say anything before, wanting to see how the Overlord would handle it.
Now, she couldn't help but ask, "Deacon Miao seems to be taking good care of Wu Fei!"
Miao Yi smiled bitterly. "It's not convenient for me to talk about Wu Fei. The Overlord knows best."
Yue Tianbo had warned him, but he still tried to implicate Yue Tianbo in the matter, making it seem like he was being wronged. On one hand, Yue Tianbo wanted to take advantage of Miao Yi, but on the other hand, he wanted to stay out of this matter. On the other hand, Miao Yi couldn't wait to drag him down with him. Yue Tianbo's method of scaring him was useless against him. He, the Great Palace Lord, would not do anything. Once he decided to take the risk, he would not be afraid of scaring him.
Cheng Aofang replied with an "Oh." No wonder she hadn't seen any reaction from the Overlord. As it turned out, the Overlord had something to do with this matter in the first place. In that case, it would be inconvenient for her to probe further.
After leaving the Wood Traversing Palace, Miao Yi looked for a quiet mountain forest to descend. He took out the Star Bell and invoked his arts to shake it, then held it in his hand.
Very soon, the bell in his hand began to ring. It was the signal he had agreed upon with Qian'Er and Xue'Er.
Miao Yi put away the Star Bell and hurried back to Suppressing Ninth Hall. He explained a few things to the two ladies, and left quite a few things for them. Then, the two ladies were reluctant to part with him, and Miao Yi flew away resolutely.
The Wizard descended from the sky and arrived at the peak of the mountain that he had decided on with the Wizard. The Wizard, who was sitting cross-legged under a big tree, slowly stood up and asked, "Almsgiver, are you ready?"
Miao Yi cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Great Master!"
The Wizard said, "The journey to the outside world will take more than ten days. With your cultivation, it is not enough for you to not breathe for a long time. You must prepare yourself first."
Miao Yi nodded and quickly invoked his arts. His fingers formed into a claw, and he grabbed at the air. The plants in front of him suddenly moved despite the absence of wind, and an indescribable flow of air gathered towards Miao Yi's hand. Soon, a ball of light blue water appeared out of thin air, and gradually grew larger.
Seeing Miao Yi invoke his arts and forcefully compress the air into a few large balls of water, storing them in his storage ring, the Wizard nodded and said, "Let's go!" As soon as he finished speaking, he took to the skies and headed straight for the sky.
'Whoosh!' Miao Yi also took to the skies, and chased after the Wizard.
After flying for a while, Miao Yi felt that something was amiss. He shouted from below, "Great Master, are we not going to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea?"
The Wizard lowered his head and smiled. "You will know soon enough."
Miao Yi had no choice but to continue flying with the Wizard. However, the higher they flew, the harder it became for him to endure. Looking at the Wizard, it seemed like he was preparing to fly out of the small world. However, with Miao Yi's cultivation, his flying speed was not fast enough. There was no way he could escape the restraints of the small world's gravity. Only by flying fast enough could he escape the restraints of the small world. This was also the reason why one's cultivation had to be at the Golden Lotus realm in order to reach the realm of Soaring Heavens.
The Wizard naturally understood this. He slowed down and waited for Miao Yi to catch up. He grabbed Miao Yi's arm and invoked his arts, and the two of them flew even faster.
'Swoosh!' The moment they left the small world, Miao Yi immediately realized that he was as light as a feather.
The Wizard dragged him and continued to fly towards the depths of the vast starry sky. Miao Yi turned around to look at the small world, and saw that it was a magnificent and beautiful sphere. The vastness of the starry sky was mesmerizing.
About an hour later, the two of them stopped in midair, and quietly floated in space.
Miao Yi didn't understand what was going on. He watched as the Wizard waved his hand, and a streak of light shot out from his hand. It quickly expanded into a massive white ship. If it wasn't the Netherdragon Ship, what else could it be?
Miao Yi was shocked. He transmitted his voice to the Wizard, "Great Master! The Netherdragon Ship is with you? "
The Wizard smiled and said, "This old monk has already subdued the Netherdragon Ship. It will temporarily be used to travel through the vast starry sky."
'Subdued the Netherdragon Ship?' Miao Yi was shocked beyond words. The Netherdragon Ship that the Six Sages coveted had actually been subdued by the Wizard.
The Wizard had already left in a flash, and landed on the deck of the Netherdragon Ship. He held the staff in his hand and waved, saying, "Benefactor, please board the ship!"
Miao Yi, on the other hand, was a little apprehensive as he looked at the densely packed zombies quietly floating by the side of the ship.
The Wizard saw through his apprehension, and smiled to ease his worries. "Benefactor, you don't have to worry too much. This ship is already under my control. These dragon ship protectors are also under my command. Without my permission, they will not harm anyone."
As he said this, Miao Yi left in a flash, and landed on the deck as well. He looked around at the magnificent and exquisite ship, and let out a sigh of relief.
Standing on the deck, the Wizard suddenly waved his staff, as though giving an order.
The massive Netherdragon Ship slowly adjusted its direction in the starry sky. After the majestic dragon head at the bow of the ship had given its direction, the entire ship began to move forward. Under the pull of the zombies with profound transcendence energy, the ship's speed gradually increased as it soared through the starry sky.
Looking at the vast sea of stars around him, Miao Yi felt an indescribable sense of excitement. He never thought that he would have the chance to travel to the greater world that all cultivators dreamed of.
He was very thankful that he had gone to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea to see the Lady Boss. He couldn't help but pat the railing on the deck and sigh, "Thank goodness I went to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea. If I hadn't met the Great Master, how would I have had this chance?!"
Wearing a bamboo hat and holding a staff, the Wizard tilted his head to look at Miao Yi. He smiled meaningfully, but didn't reply.
"Eh …" Miao Yi, who was holding the railing, suddenly let out a cry of surprise. He lowered his head to look at the railing, and stroked it repeatedly. Then, he turned around and touched the doors, windows, and pillars behind him. Suddenly, his face paled as he exclaimed, "Orbs of Will! Great Master, could it be that this entire Netherdragon Ship is formed from Orbs of Will? "
The Wizard nodded and said, "Indeed. This ship is a special transcendent artifact formed from the will of all living beings. Furthermore, it has removed the emotions and desires from the will of all living beings. That's why it's simple and unadorned. You won't be able to see the brilliance of an ordinary Orb of Will."
'Heavens!' Miao Yi was shocked. A low-grade Orb of Will was only the size of a grain of rice. Even a high-grade Orb of Will was only the size of a quail's egg. Meanwhile, the length of this giant ship was easily a thousand zhang. Just how many Orbs of Will were needed to form this ship? Furthermore, it had removed the emotions and desires from the Orbs of Will. Even if all the Orbs of Will in the entire Lesser World were added together, they still wouldn't be able to form this ship!
Miao Yi was truly shocked. He affectionately stroked the ship. He now believed that the cultivation resources in the greater world were limitless. Bloody hell, just a single ship was already this extravagant. What a joke!
After a long while, he finally recovered from his shock. His blood began to boil again as he looked towards the depths of the starry sky with a brilliant gleam in his eyes. He shouted, "Greater World, here I come!"
The Sorcerer smiled and said, "Perhaps it might not be as beautiful as you think!" He raised his hand and pointed at the zombies pulling the ship. "Just look at what happened to them. Which one of them was weaker than the Six Sages when they were alive?"
"..." Miao Yi was stunned.
"Where there are people, there will be grudges. Where there are benefits, there will be competition." The Sorcerer reminded him out of goodwill.
Miao Yi nodded slightly and asked, "These people were so powerful when they were alive. Why did they all turn into zombies and appear in the lesser world?"
The Sorcerer asked in return, "Almsgiver, you obtained a great opportunity in the Boundless Secular World. Could it be that you have never heard of the origins of the Boundless Secular World?"
Miao Yi nodded and said, "Of course I have. Rumor has it that a hundred thousand celestial soldiers and generals came from this vast starry sky to pursue a great demon from the greater world. Later on, they perished together with the great demon in the Boundless Secular World."
"Great demon …" The Sorcerer chuckled and slowly turned his head to look at the top of the ship.
Lao Bai, dressed in a snow-white long gown with a plain green cloak on his shoulders, stood at the very top of the ship with his hands behind his back. His peerless figure and aura were still breathtaking. His white hair fluttered even though there was no wind, and his gaze silently looked towards the depths of the vast starry sky.
After hearing Miao Yi's words, he indifferently glanced downwards. Unconsciously, he still exuded an aura of disdain, looking down on all living things!
Miao Yi subconsciously followed the Sorcerer's gaze and looked up. Lao Bai was clearly standing there, but he didn't see anything.
The Sorcerer then pointed at the zombies pulling the ship and said, "After this old monk carefully studied this ship, I discovered that these people are the so-called hundred thousand celestial soldiers and generals you spoke of."
"Ah!" Miao Yi was shocked again. "Didn't they all perish together with the great demon?"
