Celestial Peak 300 Detour

Traveling to the Fleeting Wing City, w.a.n.g Ling will take a lot of time. But it mattered not for his speed was faster than normal and although he can't use his bloodlines so blatantly, minor augmentations are enough.

According to the Gray Figure, w.a.n.g Ling can activate his bloodline but he cannot ignite it. But to be completely sure that he will not be facing any trouble, w.a.n.g Ling decided not to activate his bloodline, his speed was already apt for the job so why bother?

He would be on the road for a couple of weeks but w.a.n.g Ling will not waste his time, if he can, he would gain knowledge from the Gray Figure to understand what he should keep in mind when he is in the Lower Heaven.

"Just remember that this world is different from the Celestial Spirit Realm. You heard what the Elves have said correct? The Heaven Realm is filled with 'n.o.bles' the culture and tradition here are ruled by an aristocracy, the influence of the Primordial times runs deep in this one. Though there are still sects in these worlds, it is but a minority, but it is also possible that there are Sects that are as strong or even stronger than a Kingdom or Empire. Kill a n.o.ble, then you must be ready to fight an entire bloodline. To be short, it is no different than the world below this one."

When w.a.n.g Ling went to Dark Elf tribe last night, he had already killed the Nightshade Panther. The Chief of the village wanted to pay him with 'brides' but he refused, he doesn't have time to take care of them, so he took the currency/cultivation resources of this world — Meteor Stones.

Meteor Stones are the same as Stellar Stones. The only difference being the density it carried, the Meteor Stone has denser qi within making it the perfect kind of resources an Immortal should use.

Aside from earning a total of 10,000 Meteor Stones, he also learned a lot of information from the chief that Gabu didn't bother explaining. The Lower Heaven has different places and worlds that have connections to ruins that have a history of millions of years ago.

The continents have no official name, the name that a certain part of the land is the name of its conqueror. To be exact, the thing that is used would be the moniker of the conqueror.

The Azure Light State is a state of the [Heavenly Dragon Empire]. The Heavenly Dragon Empire is not ruled by one of the Four Deities as the Heavenly Dragon being referred to here is the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, a part of the Beastman Race who cultivated a unique set of cultivation method known as Heaven Dragon Ascension.

w.a.n.g Ling was left in amazement upon learning of this fact, but he had to accept it because this was his world now.

"Figure, do you know of a way to return to the Celestial Spirit World? I wish to return because my sword is yet to be completed." w.a.n.g Ling asked.

"You need to wait, you did not come here of your own volition so that means you did not come here through the proper method of entering what I call [Cosmic Road]. You don't know it, I will explain it to you. The Cosmic Road is not an actual road that can be touched but a connection to all the Realms. Only by having the ability to control s.p.a.ce or having someone bring you to the Higher World will you only be able to travel through the Cosmic Road. But as we have traveled through the tribulation, we are left to wait until you become capable of controlling s.p.a.ce.

"Enough of that, your sword will be reforged one day, but right now we need to worry over how we are going to raise your cultivation. I also need to return to the Celestial Spirit Realm, most of my memories is stuck in my tombs after all."

w.a.n.g Ling was left to agree with the words of the Gray Figure and with a sigh he continued with his path. To reach the Fleeting Cloud City one must pa.s.s through three smaller towns and w.a.n.g Ling didn't want to pay anything so he avoided towns.

He was an Immortal now, he need not sleep nor does he need to eat, he can live without those s.h.i.+t. w.a.n.g Ling went and flew to the west before returning to his original direction. Having an inexhaustible amount of qi was truly a magnificent thing to have.

But upon avoiding the first town, w.a.n.g Ling will also end up avoiding the other two. However, there is another thing he will be meeting. In a weeks' time of w.a.n.g Ling's journey, he avoided a lot of people on the way, and before long he reached the infamous place the Dark Elves called [Fire Emperor's Garden].

A land filled with flames, flowing lava, and fire stones. In the Lower Heavens only a few cultivator ventures into it as it was a very dangerous area for Celestials and Immortals alike. Only those who are attuned with Flames dares to enter in search of treasures.

w.a.n.g Ling was one such cultivator. With a body trained under rigorous conditions of the Hel Flames, he slowly adapt to corrosive kinds of qi and poison. The h.e.l.l Flames was a potent poison so it was an effective training against it.

The Fire Emperor's Garden was a good place to be in, he needed a suitable place for where he should have the h.e.l.l Flames reach the next level of mastery. He need the h.e.l.l Flames to become stronger and have a mind of its own, its use is already limited as it is, he now need to improve it in order for him to have more cards on his hands.

It wasn't him who decided this action, it was the Gray Figure who convinced him to do this.But he argued that the presence of the h.e.l.l Flames may cause outrage in the Lower Heaven but the Gray Figure a.s.sured him that it will be fine.

'The pure form of the Flames of Destruction is much more dangerous. Oh, the Flames of Destruction is the other name of the one you call h.e.l.l Flames, as a bonus the Heavenly Flames is called the Flames of Creation. I have been meaning to ask you, did the True Chaos Flames technique used by other people before you?"

"Yes, in the previous era the people who uncovered the True Chaos Flames cultivated it. But those who cultivated it can only pa.s.s reach the second level and those who reached the third level can be counted by one hand though those people died in a few years' time shortly thereafter."

"I see, you see the True Chaos Flames is one of the few techniques I left in the entrance of my Tomb. I consider it the strongest flame cultivation technique as it allows the user to control flames of chaos. But the flames of Chaos alone is dangerous and would devour the people who dare control it. That is why those who cultivated it wrongly all died. The correct method of cultivating the True Chaos Flames is having the essence of Chaos in one's body. Angelic Qi, and h.e.l.lish Qi is one of this Chaotic Fragments, the True Chaos Flames would devour the essence and would show its true form."

"What does that have anything to do with avoiding detection?"

"Simple, the Flames of Chaos is sacred the Flames of Chaos and Destruction changes the more you train it. The more you train it the more it returns to their purest forms hence thinning the aura of h.e.l.l and Heaven to it. A great example of it is the avatar of the Flames of Creation, it had come alive and is slowly becoming a true creature, its characteristics as the Flames of Creation dwindles the stronger it becomes."

And with that, w.a.n.g Ling learned of the truth and he hurried over to the Fire Emperor's Garden.

But then, he remembered something that almost made his blood become cold.

"If the True Chaos Flames devour its user, does that mean Renhuo will also be devoured?"

The Gray Figure who seemed to have noticed his reaction and heard his words shook its head and said confidently, "Worry not, that companion of yours is fine, she should have devoured the Flames of Tribulation, either that or she gave the technique to someone else and that person proceeded to devour the essence of tribulation."

w.a.n.g Ling remembered something important from the past and then heaved a sigh of relief. The incident in Invincible City when the lightning tribulation was devoured by flames clearly circulated in his mind.

After some time, w.a.n.g Ling reached the Fire Emperor's Garden. But even from afar, he noticed that there was something wrong. A crowd was formed outside the Fire Emperor's Garden.

w.a.n.g Ling landed on the ground and with his curiosity reaching its peak, he asked one of the people to explain to him what is going on.

"The people of the Red Flame Sect is blocking the path to the entire Fire Emperor's Garden. They claim that it is now their territory and is having their juniors cultivate inside."

"And who are the people saying that we cannot enter?"

"Those three in front. They are people of the First Meridian Immortal Spirit Foundation stage, we cannot touch them because of the sect behind them… so hateful."

One of them cursed and w.a.n.g Ling sighed at the sight of these people. In the Lower Heaven, Immortals are not as many as the clouds, only a few ever ascends and become an expert of such level.

And seeing them act like these made w.a.n.g Ling feel embarra.s.sed for them.

And because w.a.n.g Ling does not have time to deal with such people, he whispered, "Suzhen, come out."

A little white snake appeared on his palms. It was the size of his pinky, and without anyone noticing w.a.n.g Ling waved his hands and pretended to turn around and leave, he even said, "How unlucky, for us to miss such a thing because of greed…:"

But as he was about to leave, a Blazing White Serpent appeared from thin air right above the three disciples of the Red Flame Sect.

"What kind of beast is that!?"

It was Suzhen and without a warning, she devoured the three Immortals in mere seconds. Suzhen thrashed the area. She eyed the people present and with speed as quick as lightning, she went ahead and put w.a.n.g Ling in her mouth before fleeing to the Flame Emperor's Garden.

Inside her, w.a.n.g Ling sat thinking, [It is rather enjoyable here.]
