Chapter 473 - 473 Cross-Border Teleportation (2)
473 Cross-Border Teleportation (2)
It was said to be half-open because the upper part of the palace was empty. It was enveloped by a white pillar of light, and the space it was in was constantly distorted, containing powerful spatial fluctuations.
In the square in front of the Teleportation Hall, more than ten figures gathered together. Their auras were all above the Void Refinement Realm, and the one sitting at the head was a Great Sage.
When they landed, pairs of eyes looked over. Most of them were focused on the unfamiliar Song Shi with a sense of scrutiny.
The Supreme Saint in the lead stood up. His beard and hair were all white, and he was dressed in an ancient silver robe. He looked like a sage.
The old man’s voice was ancient. “Huo Yan, he must be the Black Tortoise Palace’s Heaven Patrolling Guard you talked about.”
“Yes, Supreme Saint Skysilver. He wants to accept the recruitment and meet up with the Black Tortoise Palace army.”
Huo Yan nodded and introduced him to Song Shi. “This is the Palace Masters of the Vermilion Bird Palace’s Heaven Patrolling Hall. They are here to assist in the recruitment of the Black Tortoise Palace. They are also the superiors who are investigating your identity.”
“Greetings, Supreme Saint Skysilver.”
The silver-robed elder instantly appeared beside Song Shi. His eyes flickered with silver light as he scanned Song Shi’s body. He said in surprise, “You’ve cultivated spatial cultivation techniques and a spatial physique.”
“Senior’s insight is very powerful. I indeed have these skills but I can’t compare to you.”
Song Shi smiled humbly. He vaguely sensed that the other party also had a physique similar to the Void Divine Body, or at least a related Talent.
“Not bad. At the Void Refinement Realm, these abilities are enough for you to be like a fish in water later.”
Supreme Saint Skysilver stroked his long silver-white beard and nodded at Huo Yan. “He’s fine.”
He continued to look at Song Shi. “If you agree to the recruitment, you can’t regret it midway. This is your last chance to quit.”
“I understand. There’s no need to quit.”
Song Shi looked at the other cultivators. “Are we leaving now?”
“There are two more people coming. We will teleport when they arrive.”
Supreme Saint Skysilver said to Huo Yan, “You can go back.”
Huo Yan cupped his fists. “Fellow Daoist Song, see you again.”
“See you later.”
Song Shi watched Huo Yan leave and was a little touched.
Although they had only known each other for a few months, this woman was not bad.
“Are you the guys who ate the dragon and phoenix in the Seven-colored Tower not long ago?”
One of the waiting cultivators walked over with a smile on his chubby face. “It must have tasted good.”
The last time Song Shi encountered such a fellow, he ended up being a spy. He learned from his mistakes. This time, he appeared much more indifferent, “Not bad.”
“I’m Han Dade, a commander of the Vermilion Bird Palace Hall. I was a little unlucky and was recruited to deal with the demon.”
“You know my name. This time, I’m participating in the recruitment on my own initiative. I consider it a free use of cross-border Teleportation.”
“Fellow Daoist Song, you’re too humble. You can even afford to eat dragon and phoenix meat. The cost of Teleportation is nothing to you.”
The two of them spoke one after another. Most of the other cultivators were resting with their eyes closed, as if they were not interested in getting to know Song Shi.
As for Han Dade, a few cultivators had mocking looks on their faces looking at them. It was unknown if they looked down on Han Dade or Song Shi.
After an hour, a green stream of light quickly approached. When it landed, it brought with it a phenomenon of clouds and mist. Then there was a faint dragon roar echoing.
Song Shi saw a familiar fellow and was stunned. “This place is really small.”
The second-to-last cultivator was none other than the Green Dragon Tribe cultivator who had a dispute with him at the Rainbow Pavilion.
Yan Donghao also saw Song Shi. He only smiled coldly and went to look for Supreme Saint Skysilver.
Zhao Dade muttered, “Fellow Daoist Song, your luck isn’t good either. You just ate the dragon meat and encountered a fellow from the Dragon Race. However, you don’t have to worry. He won’t dare to do anything to you during the Quests.”
“Isn’t he from the Vermilion Bird Palace? Why is he going?”
Song Shi asked casually.
“He might have been called to help break a specific Array Formation, but I think someone from the Green Dragon Palace has also gone over.”
Upon hearing this, Song Shi’s expectations for this mission increased significantly. If even the Black Tortoise Palace felt that it was troublesome to resolve it alone, it would definitely be very dangerous.
Yan Donghao and Supreme Saint Skysilver were chatting and laughing, as if they did not show any displeasure with Song Shi.
Another two hours passed before the last cultivator appeared at a moderate pace.
This cultivator wore a bamboo hat and a black robe that covered his face. Supreme Saint Skysilver checked him out and said, “The eight of you, follow me in.”
Just as Song Shi was wondering why there were eight of them, a portion of the cultivators took the initiative to turn around. They formed hand seals and released Nomological powers that landed around them, activating various Array Formations.
He had seen a few of the members in charge of the teleportation array here just now. He thought that they would go over together, but in fact, there were only eight of them.
There were not many of them, but their quality was relatively high. They were much stronger than the one hundred-man team he had patrolled the Demon Cave last time.
Following Supreme Saint Skysilver into the shop, bright flames surged into his eyes. In the empty hall, the array patterns engraved on the ground were emitting flames, constantly releasing power to support the operation of the Array Formation.
Supreme Saint Skysilver formed a seal, and a portion of the light changed. After condensing, it quickly formed a thick and vast Array Formation in the center.
Dense runes formed a circular and complicated Array Formation. With a bang, a scorching pillar of light soared into the sky. When it came into contact with the white pillar of light in the sky, it was as if a torch had been lit. Instantly, an even larger Array Formation was activated.
The entire Void was filled with Array Formations. Powerful spatial power converged in the Array Formation, forming a spinning second-level Array Formation platform.
Song Shi could tell that the crimson Array Formation at the bottom provided power. The silver-white Array Formation above was where Teleportation took place.
“Activate the Teleportation Talisman. This thing can protect you from being crushed by the extremely compressed space during long-distance Teleportation.”
Supreme Saint Skysilver took out eight silver talismans. After letting go, these talismans separated as if they were alive and found their owners.
Song Shi’s eyes lit up when he heard that he could be crushed by space.
He had experienced the crushing of the spatial power when he was teleported. This time, it was a cross-border Teleportation. The spatial power was probably terrifying to an unimaginable extent. At that time, he would die if he wanted to.
This was really an unexpected surprise. He could actually die a few times or even dozens of times in advance before reaching his destination.
He pretended to be like other cultivators and quietly activated the Teleportation Talisman. A unique spatial power landed on his body.
“Go on up.”
Following Supreme Saint Skysilver’s reminder, the eight cultivators hurriedly jumped up and landed in the Array Formation.
Song Shi deliberately stood at the edge. If he died like this, he would not attract anyone’s attention.
Seeing that Song Shi and the others had all stabilized themselves, Supreme Saint Skysilver continued, “This time, our destination is the Dian Cang Sword Sect in the North Mystic Continent. Due to the distance, just the teleportation time is very long. It will take about fifteen minutes. Be mentally prepared. If there are no problems, I will activate the teleportation array.”
Song Shi and the other cultivators nodded. They had already made preparations before coming, so there was nothing to say.
“Then I wish you a smooth trip.”
Supreme Saint Skysilver took out a token and chanted an incantation. A beam of light shot out and landed on the Array Formation.
Buzz!
The Array Formation was activated. As the light shone brightly, there was a buzzing sound. The surroundings were filled with pillars of light. Then, it turned dark. The surrounding scenery distorted and turned into a circle of flowing light.
In a daze, Song Shi was already in a seemingly endless Teleportation passageway. The surrounding light quickly circulated behind him and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
A circle of materialized silver light erupted from all the cultivators. This light came from the Teleportation Talisman and protected its owner tightly. From afar, it was very blurry.
Even so, the immense pressure of space and the vibration of the Primordial Spirit brought about by the Teleportation forced everyone except Song Shi to sit cross-legged and adjust their states.
Song Shi quickly looked around and saw that the other cultivators were all closing their eyes to resist the discomfort brought about by long-distance Teleportation. They did not have the time to pay attention to him, so he tore open the Teleportation Talisman on his body.
Previously, the surroundings looked quite beautiful. However, as soon as the Teleportation Talisman was torn open, Song Shi was crushed like an ant under the terrifying spatial power.
Every cultivator was isolated from a highly compressed space. It looked like they very close, but everyone was actually very far away. Song Shi’s death was not discovered by anyone.
“So fierce!”
After resurrecting on the spot, Song Shi was rather shocked. In front of this power, he was really too weak.
“As expected of a cross-border teleportation array!”
Song Shi thought excitedly as he was crushed by the spatial power again.
