After standing by the side of the Crystal Coffin for three days, Yang Ling said nothing as he shifted the Crystal Coffin into the Wizard Pagoda’s Space. He instructed the group to build a Crystal Palace near the Wizard’s Pagoda as fast as possible. Then, he moved the Crystal Coffin into the palace and protected it with multiple layers of restrictions.
“Brother Yang, Sister Yuna, she…” Alice’s eyes turned red as she looked at the pale, motionless Yuna within the coffin. Her tears flowed like a spring. Sofia, the Corpse Wizard King, and the rest of the group, who were standing nearby, also had tears welling up in their eyes.
“Yuna’s asleep; she’s sleeping quietly alone!” Yang Ling stroked the ice-cold Crystal Coffin gently, feeling incredibly bad. He turned and said to the Corpse Wizard King, “Rodriguez, pass down the mantra of the Demon God Battle Formation, and get every Magical Beast above Divine level to learn it as soon as possible. Also, give out all of the divinities we’ve collected over the years and prepare the materials necessary to upgrade the Beast Soul Altar. Tell Augustus that I require a large number of Divine-level Magical Beasts. Use any method he has at his disposal, the sooner the better!”
“Yes, Lord!”
The Corpse Wizard King bowed as he received his order, his eyes red. The Magical Beasts who had just been inducted into the Magical Beast Army might not be familiar with Yuna, but the people who had been helping Yang Ling conquer new lands since the beginning would not be able to forget how capable, gentle, and kind the Fox Lady Yuna had been.
After gently kissing Sophia and Alice’s foreheads, Yang Ling left the Wizard Pagoda’s Space for the giant cave of the Mother Empress in silence. In order to facilitate communication, he subjugated the Mother Empress with his blood. She did not put up any resistance. After successfully subjugating the Mother Empress, the sense of familiarity between the two parties increased, and the connection between their souls became clearer.
Hng…
Sensing that Yang Ling was feeling down, then seeing the wound on Yang Ling’s chest, which had not fully healed, the Mother Empress let out a few soft cries, gently flapping her wings as she called for Yang Ling to ride on her back. Her tail flailed as if she was chasing off flies, continuously drawing circles in the air. She was as mischievous as a child.
“Little lass, you want me to follow you?”
Yang Ling rode on the Mother Empress, gently tapping on her head. He had not stabilized himself before the Mother Empress flew out of the cave. She stayed low in the air, speeding forward while flying close to the treetops. She was fast as lightning, but still slow compared to the Golden Roc. However, she had the advantage of being stealthy when she flew, not giving off any Energy Ripples. Under the thick cover of night, even a high-level Divine Duty Expert would not be able to detect their presence.
Powerful! It was no wonder that she could avoid the ambushes and pursuit of the major factions time and time again!
Yang Ling could not help but feel awed by the Mother Empress’s talent for hiding her aura while flying through the air. He admitted that he was not as powerful as the Mother Empress in that aspect. He gently stroked the tight-knit scales on her neck. She let out a few soft cries, then suddenly retracted her wings and descended at high speed, diving into a valley that was deep beyond comprehension.
The Mother Empress was incredibly fast. After flying at high speeds for three full days, they had made it deep into the Nine Phantom Mountain Range, several million miles away from the cave where they had been hiding.
At first, Yang Ling could not understand where the Mother Empress was bringing him; however, as they got further and further away from the cave, the sense of familiarity within him got stronger and stronger. It was as if something was calling for him from deep within the mountain range.
Could the Mother Empress know where the Skyreach Tower was?
Sensing the familiar ripples of energy in the air getting stronger and stronger, then recalling that the Skyreach Tower was said to have been built deep within the Nine Phantom Mountain Range, Yang Ling had a guess at the Mother Empress’s motives. He was elated despite being surprised, now filled with anticipation for this journey.
Over the years, Yang Ling had led the Corpse Wizard King and the rest of the group to every wanderers’ base and Wandering Castle in search of the Skyreach Tower, which was said to have been left behind by the Ancient Wizards. He had asked countless people and tried every means at his disposal. Unfortunately, neither the powerful fighters who had been training in seclusion nor the experienced Sound Demon Chakali had known just where the Skyreach Tower was. They had only heard about the legends surrounding the Skyreach Tower.
He had spent a great deal of time searching for the Skyreach Tower, only to suddenly obtain its whereabouts without any effort. Perhaps the Mother Empress would be able to give him an unexpected surprise!
After flying past a pine forest, the Mother Empress suddenly slowed down, descending into a secluded valley and seizing the time to rest. They only set off again after the sun had set, once the sky was so dark that one could not see anything in front of them. She stealthily flew toward a towering, fog-covered mountain peak. Along the way, she would sometimes fly close to the treetops, and sometimes she stopped suddenly and took the long way around, hiding with the help of the rocks nearby. It was as if there was a terrifying threat lying ahead.
Could the Skyreach Tower be right there?
Yang Ling became incredibly excited after sensing the tidal waves of familiar ripples. He quickly restrained his aura when he saw how cautious the Mother Empress was being. He could scan the nearby terrain rapidly with his massive Divine Knowledge, but it would be extremely easy to attract the attention of their enemies. In a situation this unclear, Yang Ling did not dare to use his Divine Knowledge to scout the nearby terrain, opting to have a dozen mutated Horned Bee Beasts fly out instead.
Whoosh…
The mutated Horned Bee Beasts were incredibly speedy, and they soon relayed a large amount of information back to Yang Ling. Indeed, on the treetops, within the bushes, between the rocks–motionless warriors were hiding in all of these places. Some were even equipped with small Magical Spell Formations for detection. Every warrior had abilities at the peak of the Divine level, some even reaching the level of high-level Divine Duty Expert. They were spaced ten steps apart. In addition to the motionless hidden scouts, there were also teams of patrolling warriors. Security was tight in this area.
Full Moon Scimitar, Heavy Cross Sword, Divine Earth Shield…
Yang Ling noticed something surprising after observing the situation closely for a moment. Among the warriors with powerful abilities, there were some who were high-level Divine Duty Experts from the Algernon Divine Branch, Titans who served under the Power King, as well as Great Twelve-winged Angels from the City Amongst the Clouds… There were powerful fighters from all of the major Divine Branches. These powerful fighters from the various Divine Branches would fight to the death if they saw each other anywhere else, but here they treated each other amicably, cooperating as they patrolled the area!
The various major factions are defending the Skyreach Tower together?
Yang Ling’s expression turned grave as he thought about the Sound Demon Chakali’s reminder to be cautious. At the same time, he was becoming more and more excited, realizing that the Skyreach Tower could be at the peak of the fog-covered mountain ahead.
There was a dense population of hidden scouts and tight security around the mountain. However, it seemed as though the Mother Empress had been here before and was very familiar with the terrain. She used her incredible speed, her powerful talent in hiding her aura, and her astute senses to avoid the hidden scouts time and time again while stealthily and rapidly advancing toward the fog-covered peak with Yang Ling on her back.
There were countless scouts, hidden or otherwise, on the ground. The sky was filled with an obscure ripple of energy which slowed down anything flying as if they were in a marsh. The further they got away from the ground, the stronger the restriction got. It was as if the entire sky was covered in a large-scale Magical Spell Formation.
In order to successfully fly forward, and to avoid being discovered by the scouts, even the Mother Empress did not dare to fly up too high in the air!
“Brother Dampier, I heard that the leader of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad, who had vanished for millions of years, has suddenly appeared once again…” a scout whispered to his partner as they leaned on a tree, perhaps out of boredom or gossip.
“That’s right. I heard that he even severely injured the heart of the Lord of the City Amongst the Clouds in one stroke, almost destroying his divinity. That battle was incredibly intense, with the ripples of the battle killing thousands of wanderers who couldn’t dodge the impact in time. No one knows why these two extreme powerhouses had such a deep animosity between them!” The warrior by the name of Dampier shook his head.
“The leader of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad is powerful indeed. Rumor has it that the Lord of the City Amongst the Clouds is already reaching the level of Creator. To think that he would still not be a match for the leader of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad! Legend has it that he was severely injured by a Creator in the past and will never be able to recover from his injury. If he is already this powerful now, how powerful would he have been when he was at his peak?”
“I heard that after receiving the news, unparalleled fighters who were once members of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad, such as the Wandering Sword Venerable and the Lightning Explosion Star Lord, all went in search of their leader. Well, those Birdmen in the City Amongst the Clouds have always been arrogant. I do want to see how they’ll die this time!”
The two scouts whispered to each other, completely oblivious to the fact that a massive dark figure had stealthily flown past them. Yang Ling, who had been trying his best to restrain his aura, only managed to hear a few snippets of their conversation. He had wanted to listen more closely to their conversation, but the Mother Empress, who was familiar with the terrain, suddenly accelerated. He hadn’t heard much before they arrived at a plot of barren land.
Roar…
After shaking her tail and signaling for Yang Ling to stabilize himself, the Mother Empress roared and suddenly accelerated once again. She charged straight for the fog-covered peak with blinding speed. She accelerated more and more, as if she were a rocket. She clenched her teeth as she used all of the strength in her body, causing deafening sonic booms!
“Darn it! Who’s causing trouble here again? Kill them, kill!”
There was nothing to hide them in the barren land, which spanned a dozen miles. Every few meters sat a black-robed man, and the ripples of energy coming from each were comparable to the Golden Roc’s. They all had at least the abilities of a Dimensional Wanderer.
Even a fly would not be able to get past a gathering of a dozen Dimensional Wanderers; how could the massive Mother Empress?
Creak…
A sharp icicle appeared out of thin air. It flew straight toward the center of the Mother Empress’s forehead, bringing with it a bone-piercing chill. A bearded black-robed man who specialized in the Law of Ice had teleported into the air and blocked off their path. Dashing at full speed, the Mother Empress had managed to escape from eight of the black-robed men, but the last three stopped her.
“First stroke of the Battle Soul, Ice Dispelling, go!”
Yang Ling grabbed onto the Mother Empress tightly with his thighs and instructed her to continue charging forward. He whipped out the Battle Soul Blade from his back and deflected the icicle that was flying toward the Mother Empress. Then, he flew up in the air and charged forward at lightning speed before cleaving the chest of the bearded man.
Ah…
The man let out a pathetic cry. Blood gushed from his chest as his flesh split open. The speed of the Mother Empress was just too fast. The bearded man, in his hurry, had not noticed that there was a person riding on it. Even more unfortunately, the indestructible Ice-sealing Armor did not seem to have any effect against Yang Ling’s Battle Soul Blade, making the man susceptible to Yang Ling’s surprise attack!
“Go, fast!” Yang Ling let out a violent cry. He formed a wind element Wizard Seal with his hands and teleported onto the body of the Mother Empress. Even though he could not teleport himself to the fog-covered peak under the massive resistance, he had no problem teleporting a short distance to the back of the Mother Empress!
“Hmph, stop right there!”
Taking advantage of the fact that the second to last black-robed man had been caught by surprise, the Mother Empress flew past him in an instant. However, her speed did not allow her to escape the last black-robed man, who was wielding a spear. In an instant, he appeared in the sky, his spear aimed straight at the Mother Empress’s head. His thrust brought about thin Space Cracks and a ferocious pressure! The ripples of energy coming from within his body were even stronger than those of the Core Deity Algernon!
“Continue charging!”
Yang Ling clenched his teeth and slashed at the long spear. He felt his hand go numb after the impact, almost dropping his Battle Soul Blade. What was even more terrifying was that an eerie black gas had entered his body through the Battle Soul Blade as if it was a venomous snake. It was bone-chillingly cold, almost freezing his blood. Luckily for him, the Mother Empress accelerated once again as she charged headfirst into the thick fog at the peak of the mountain.
Skyreach Tower!
After getting through the thick fog, Yang Ling saw a Wizard’s Pagoda that pierced the clouds. He saw the two large, elegant words on the top of the door to the Wizard’s Pagoda — Skyreach Tower!
