The ice pathway was a trap, the insect gods were already there waiting for them. Heading for the ice pathway was no different than dying.
But if they couldnât escape from there, then they could only fly out of the insect planet.
However, to fly out of the insect planet, they would to face directly with the Pure Yang lightning zone in the atmosphere. But without cultivating the Yuan Shen into a Pure Yang state, none of them would ever survive through the lightning zone.
When Zhong Yue was breaking through the Heavenly Dharma level, his Yuan Shen flew into the Pure Yang lightning zone and played the lightnings before. However, that didnât mean he could survive through the Pure Yang lightning zone; his mortal body surely wouldnât be able to endure the lightning strikes.
If the only two ways to leave wouldnât work, they could only remain on the insect planet.
Even if they could hide from the insect experts now, could they ever hide forever?
The insect raceâs main focus now was the Ancestral Star gods, and after the gods were all killed, the insect gods would then turn their attentions to them. Even if they hid in the insect magnatesâ Yuan Shen secret realms, the mother insect gods would still be able to sense them.
Zhong Yue calmed himself. He communicated with Qiu Jinâer and they agreed on a meeting spot, he said, âBrother Canghai, do you want to come along with me?â
Bai Canghai nodded.
The two of them then walked for over 10 days to exit the godly battlefield. Zhong Yue released a few insect magnates and entered one of the insect magnatesâ Yuan Shen secret realms with Bai Canghai on his side.
Another seven days passed before Zhong Yue and Bai Canghai reached the meeting point. There, over 30 insect Qi Practitioners were waiting on the spot. In the insect magnateâs Yuan Shen secret realms, Zhong Yue surged his psyche out and touched the incoming psyche from the other insect magnates. As the two psyches came in contact with one another, they knew exactly who the other party was.
Zhong Yue and Bai Canghai flew out from the Yuan Shen secret realms while Fang Jiange, Qiu Jinâer, and the others also appeared beside the insect Qi Practitioners.
Fang Jiangeâs eyes were shining with bright rays as he stared intently at the two of them, Gu Hongzi also sent out the insect Qi Practitioners to smell on Zhong Yue and Bai Canghai.
Zhong Yue also opened his divine third eye, inspecting in every single one of them so as to ensure that none of them were infected by the insect experts.
âThey are clean," Gu Hongzi looked at Fang Jiange and nodded.
The experts then let their guards down. Tian Mo Concubine asked curiously, âDarling, where is the other darling?â
âDead, killed in battle," Zhong Yue knew she was referring to his demon incarnation, Bo Xun.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The demon ladies were immediately unsatisfied, they kicked up a fuss and interrogated, âHow could you let that happen? Quick, return our Mister Bo Xun to us!â
Zhong Yue was annoyed, he thought puzzlingly, Bo Xun is also me, but these demon ladies donât seem to be amazed by me, instead they are more concerned about Bo Xun. Could it be⦠that they really fallen in love with this demon incarnation of mine?
He couldnât really understand the mentality of Tian Mo Concubine and the other demon ladies. Although Bo Xun was his demon incarnation and had many beauties around him, Zhong Yue had always kept himself from crossing the line with the demon ladies.
But from the reaction of the demon ladies, they seemed to be more fond of Bo Xun than him. This was really intriguing.
Qiu Jinâer looked at Bai Canghai and asked, âSenior Martial Brother Bai, where is Senior Bai Yuncang?â
âHe ⦠he died!" the question hit right on Bai Canghaiâs soft spot, he burst into tears as he answered.
Qiu Jinâer was shocked, she exclaimed, âSenior Bai have the divine weapons of Lord Bai, how can he die?â
Bai Canghai calmed his sorrowing heart, he hesitated and said, âThere were a few insect gods that surrounded him. Although he was able to fight them off, he suffered grave injuries. Seeing that he was suppressing the insect gods, I praised him and ⦠andâ¦â
Qiu Jinâer sighed and comforted him, âSenior Martial Brother Bai, itâs not your fault. Senior Bai was only able to suppress the insect gods because he burnt all of his life force, it is his decision to do so. It is the only way to protect you.â
Bai Canghai gave a wry smile, his eyes were dead blank.
Suddenly, Xin Huo furtively said in Zhong Yueâs psyche ocean, âBrat Yue, keep a distance away from him. This Bai Zhe really has the mouth of crow. You need to be cautious, donât ever let him praise you, the more he praises someone, the faster that person will die!â
Zhong Yue was between laughter and tears, he shook his head and said, âHow is it possible? Jinâer already explained it all, Senior Bai burnt his life force to protect Senior Martial Brother Bai, this nothing to do the mouth of a crow.â
All of a sudden, Qiu Jinâer secretly conducted her voice to Zhong Yue, she said, âSenior martial brother, please donât let Senior Martial Brother Bai praise you anymore! Itâs better to be a little more cautious, whether or not it is true, we should be more careful. After all, every time Senior Martial Brother Bai gives his praises to someone, something bad will always happens to said person.â
Upon hearing her, Zhong Yue became lost for words.
âThis is not a place to linger long, we need to move now," Fang Jiange abruptly said, âLetâs get back to the dark side of the insect planet where we can further discuss our next move.â
The crowd hid in one of the insect magnatesâ Yuan Shen secret realms and Zhong Yue asked, âAre there any Ancestral Star gods that survived until now?â
Fang Jiange shook his head as he answered, âAlong the way here, we witnessed a total of two godly battles, both of which the two Ancestral Star gods were captured. These insect gods and mother godsâ main targets are to capture our Ancestral Star gods and blood sacrifice them to the mother queen. Thus, these Ancestral Star gods mostly arenât going to survive.â
Gu Hongzi continued, âThe insect gods settled around the ice pathway, we saw some battles ongoing there but didnât dare to get any closer. Now, our concern is how can we leave this insect planet and return to Ancestral Star!â
He raised his head and looked at the high sky, the Pure Yang lightning zone was their biggest obstacle. Staying in the insect planet was the last choice they would make.
flying through the Pure Yang lightning zone and or passing through the ice pathway were like roads to death as well.
Suddenly, Zhong Yue thought and said, âI have a plan, we might be able to make it out from the insect planet.â
Zhong Yue took out Yu Wenjuâs corpse and said, âWe can hide in this monster godâs corpse and cast it up. With it, we might just be able to fly through the Pure Yang lightning zone into space, what do you all think?â
The experts looked at one another, they all nodded and said, âIt might work! The gods can pass through the Pure Yang lighting zone. With this monster god corpse protecting us on the outside, we might be able to pass through the Pure Yang lightning zone as well!â
Zhong Yue thought and he asked Bai Canghai, âSenior Martial Brother Bai, do you think itâll work?â
Bai Canghai nodded and said, âYes, I do!â
Immediately, Zhong Yue hesitated, he quickly turned to the little flame in his psyche and asked, âXin Huo, what do you think about this plan?â
Xin Huo was insouciant as he answered, âYou will all die, no doubt about it.â
Zhong Yueâs scalps tingled, âWhy?â
âThe gods are only able to fly through the Pure Yang lightning zone because of their Pure Yang Yuan Shen, not their prowess. Itâs only because their Yuan Shen are in the Pure Yang state that the Pure Yang lightnings donât strike them.â
Xin Huo explained, âEven if you all hide in the monster godâs body, the Pure Yang lightning zone can still sense your Yuan Shen as they are still in the Yin state. Thus, the Pure Yang lightning will still come at you.â
Zhong Yue was puzzled, âThatâs why the monster god mortal body can help to protect us from the Pure Yang lightning.â
âNo it wonât. This big snakeâs mortal body will surely be struck into pieces by the lightning." Xin Huo gave a cold sneer and said, âDonât think too lightly of the Pure Yang lightning zone. At the center of the Pure Yang lightning zone, the lightning will manifest into innate dragon gods. This big snakeâs mortal body wouldnât stand a chance in the face of these lightning-formed Leize dragons, two strikes at most and it will shatter. Then, itâll be your turn to die.â
A cold chill traveled down Zhong Yueâs spine, and he secretly glanced over at Bai Canghai and thought, Could Brother Canghai really possess the legendary Comet Innate Spirit Body? His crow mouth⦠truly is powerfulâ¦
Zhong Yue thought and suddenly, he had another idea. He looked the experts and said, âItâs unlikely we will be able to make it through, but we can place a teleportation portal that sends us out from the insect planet!â
The experts exchanged a look, Fang Jiange shook his head and replied, âI donât know anything about setting up teleportation portals.â
Gu Hongzi shook his head and said, âI donât know either. The teleportation portals are all god-leveled array formations. If there are array charts that we can follow step by step, it might be possible. Butâ¦â
The demon ladies, Zuo Xiangsheng, Tian Yanzhong and the others nodded as well. But suddenly, Zhong Yue smiled and said, âI know.â
The experts were shocked, their eyes were filled with disbelief as they look at him. Zhong Yue was pleading in his psyche ocean, âXin Huo, quick, teach me the teleportation arrays!â
Xin Huo was surprised, he said puzzlingly, âDidnât you say you knew them already?â
â⦠Haha, what I meant was, you know," Zhong Yue compliment, âXin Huo the Great Preceptor, he who knows it all, can do anything he wants. How would the teleportation arrays be any issues to him?â
Xin Huo laughed loudly, he placed his hands on the waist and said, âYou, I like your words! Yes, yes, you are quite right! The great Xin Huo knows it all and does it all! This teleportation array, itâs not even an issue to me! Come, come, I will teach it to you! Of course, to have such a great teacher like me teaching you, if you canât grasp it, then you can only blame yourself for being too stupid. This teleportation array formation is a god-level array formation, without a year or two, thereâll no way you can finish learning it.â
âWhat? It takes such a long time?" Zhong Yue was shocked.
Xin Huo gave a cold sneer, he said, âOf course! This one or two years can only allow you to grasp its surface. If you want to master it, itâll take even longer, up to hundreds of years! This teleportation array Iâm going to teach you is no ordinary teleportation array formation. This is a teleportation portal, but at the same time is also a cultivation art. It was created by the ninth Fuxi Earthly Sovereign, Xi Hao. This cultivation art is called the ãTime Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scriptureã, at its extreme state, it allows the cultivator to be anywhere at anytime in the universe. It consists of two types of totem patterns, the first being related to space with the other related to the mystical time laws. If you can grasp even the surface of the art within a year or two, you can already be considered a great talent!â
As he finished talking, Xin Huo casually waved his hand and the space totem patterns and time totem patterns flew into Zhong Yueâs psyche ocean. Zhong Yue looked over and couldnât move his eyes away from the totem patterns.
Xin Huo said, âYou need to understand what time and space are, what use they have, why they exist, what meanings do they carry and why they matter. The universe is boundless in terms of space, but time also played a huge role in it. In the universe, you will see various manifestations of time and also the differences in the flow of time, some quicker, some slower and some donât even exist. Things you see now may appeared to be absurd and utterly beyond imagination, but they do exist for a reason. This is an art that only the inheritors can learn, but as the condition is pressing against you, I will make an exception in this case.â
Zhong Yue stared at the space and time totem patterns, and he submerged himself in attaining them. These totem patterns were far too complex, beyond the level of any other totem patterns he ever come across.
These totem patterns could allow one to travel everywhere in the universe if the cultivator mastered them!
Xin Huo was right, this art is hard to attain, a year or two to grasp a brief understanding of it is already a great achievement. But this is an art that even allows one to travel intergalactically. But in my case now, I donât need to teleport so far, I only need to get out from the insect planet, just a million miles far at the most.
Zhong Yue thought, Which means all I need to grasp is the most primitive teleportation array from it, and we will be able to teleport out of this insect planet.
He took out the divine golds and started sculpting them, attaining the abstrusities of the ãTime Light Spatial Crystal Mystic Scriptureã. A month later, the divine golds around him piled up like a mountain.
Another month passed and they reached to the dark side of the insect planet. Zhong Yue cleared the divine golds around him and started a sculpting frenzy. A few days later, he built an incredibly primitive and shabby teleportation portal.
Needless to say, Xin Huo was bewildered. In just two months of time, Zhong Yue had really built a rudimentary teleportation array formation!
This teleportation portal is missing so many crucial totem patterns. Probably not even gods would know where you guys will be teleported to⦠the little flame was speechless as he thought.
âLetâs go!" Zhong Yue, on the other hand, was confident and confidently asked the experts to enter the array formation.
