The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Han Li fell silent upon hearing Lu Yao's words.

Lu Yao was right. He was only at the lower level of the Foundation Establishment stage in Huangfeng Valley, which was insignificant. If a dangerous mission came, he probably wouldn't even have the right to refuse.

With the rebellion at Spirit Beast Mountain, the six factions are already showing signs of decline, and their future is uncertain.

"How about we flee to another country? Even if we become rogue cultivators again, we can still live a carefree life."

Han Li thought about it and had already decided to leave Yue Kingdom. Since Lu Yao had taken him away again, there was no way he would return to Huangfeng Valley.

"Many countries in the south are also constantly embroiled in conflict, probably no better than the Yue Kingdom. The best course of action now is to stay away from this troublesome place."

Lu Yao remained calm and composed as he spoke.

Seeing Lu Yao's expression, Han Li realized that he had made plans in advance, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

"Brother Yao, do you have any plans?"

Han Li's expression shifted slightly, and he asked curiously.

Lu Yao smiled slightly, knowing it was time to bring up the matter of the ancient teleportation array.

"I recently stumbled upon an ancient teleportation array, which should be able to teleport to extremely distant places. Brother Han, would you be willing to come with me?"

Lu Yao looked at Han Li and extended a team invitation to him.

"An ancient teleportation array?! The Yue Kingdom actually possesses such a thing!"

Han Li gasped. He had seen teleportation arrays in the ancient books of Huangfeng Valley and knew how powerful they were.

Small teleportation arrays can travel hundreds of miles, while large teleportation arrays can travel thousands or even tens of thousands of miles. And an ancient teleportation array must be a large teleportation array.

"Brother Yao was able to tell me such important news, I..."

Han Li felt a little touched, not expecting that Lu Yao had not forgotten him at this time.

"Since we brothers have said all this, it seems you've already made your choice. Let's hurry on our way."

Lu Yao smiled and said casually.

Han Li nodded, and then the two of them transformed into streaks of light and carefully headed towards the ancient teleportation array's mine.

……

Meanwhile, in the distant Tianluo Kingdom, the Ghost Spirit Sect experienced the same situation as the Hehuan Sect.

Wang Chan's father, Wang Tiansheng, flew into a rage and immediately led a squad of Ghost Guards toward the Yue Kingdom.

He was just one of the high-ranking members of the Ghost Spirit Sect, and his brother was the sect leader. So he disregarded the agreement with the seven major sects of Yue Kingdom and chose to go out alone to hunt down Lu Yao.

Furthermore, Wang Tiansheng paid a huge price and used a forbidden technique of the Ghost Spirit Sect to finally track down Lu Yao's approximate location.

Meanwhile, the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect also heard the news of Wang Chan's death and immediately contacted Wang Tiansheng.

Both the Hehuan Sect and the Guiling Sect are demonic sects, and since they are both located in the Tianluo Kingdom, the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect and Wang Tiansheng know each other.

After sensing the killer's aura, the two realized it was the same person and immediately decided to attack Lu Yao's location together.

……

A day later, Lu Yao and Han Li lay in ambush outside the mine, watching the demonic cultivators patrolling back and forth with great caution.

In fact, this mine is neither very big nor very small. In addition, the demonic path is short-handed, so the only ones left here are Foundation Establishment cultivators, who are not a threat to Lu Yao.

However, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be bad if the message were leaked by the demonic disciples guarding the mine.

So Lu Yao and Han Li discussed it and decided to sneak in.

Because the demonic path had only recently occupied this place, and the surrounding area was also occupied by the demonic path, no formations were set up, which conveniently made things easier for Lu Yao and Han Li.

The two concealed themselves, avoiding several patrolling groups of demonic cultivators, and entered the mine directly.

Inside the mine, the passageways stretched and twisted. After spending an hour, the two finally arrived at the location of the ancient teleportation array.

"I never expected that this formation would be buried in this mine. It is truly a rare sight in the world."

Han Li glanced at the ancient teleportation array a few times, his eyes showing amazement.

"I discovered this by accident while carrying out a sect mission. I never expected it to become our escape route."

Lu Yao smiled faintly, took out the ancient teleportation array base that Xin Ruyin had repaired from his primordial space, and went to the damaged array base stone.

Following the repair method taught to him by Xin Ruyin, Lu Yao quickly replaced the array base, making it indistinguishable from the other array bases around it.

"This formation is actually damaged? Brother Yao, were you prepared for this all along?"

Han Li was slightly taken aback when he saw Lu Yao's actions.

"Haha, only with the help of a master of array formations could this array be repaired."

Lu Yao smiled slightly as he thought of Xin Ruyin.

"Let's teleport away as soon as possible without delay."

Lu Yao then inserted mid-grade spirit stones into all the spirit stone slots, took out the Great Teleportation Token, and prepared to begin the teleportation.

At that moment, the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect and Wang Tiansheng also arrived near the mine.

"Is this person really here? Brother, are you sure your secret technique is working correctly?"

The sect leader of the Hehuan Sect frowned slightly, looking at the demonic disciples patrolling the mine below, and asked with some uncertainty.

"This is our sect's forbidden technique—the Soul-Searching and Soul-Fixing Technique. It uses the souls of a hundred spirit children as sacrifices, along with that person's magical aura, to successfully locate the target. It is absolutely correct."

Wang Tiansheng held an exquisite compass in his hand, staring intently at the mineral vein below.

"In that case, we must set up a great formation and absolutely not let this person escape!"

The Hehuan Sect Master's eyes flickered slightly, clearly indicating that he did not intend to give the enemy who killed his son any chance to escape.

The fact that two Nascent Soul cultivators had to make a move and set up a large formation to surround them showed that they were being extremely cautious.

With a command from the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, the other demonic disciples who had followed quickly took their positions and began setting up the grand formation.

Meanwhile, the Hehuan Sect Master and Wang Tiansheng were not idle either. They directly released the pressure of Nascent Soul cultivators to suppress the entire mine and began to use their divine sense to explore according to Lu Yao's aura.

……

The sudden appearance of oppressive force on the ancient teleportation array caused both Lu Yao and Han Li to change their expressions.

"Oh no! A powerful cultivator is coming!"

Lu Yao was aware of Qiong Laoguai's aura. The two auras felt different, but the one above Qiong Laoguai was definitely not from a Core Formation cultivator.

A Nascent Soul cultivator has arrived at the mine!

"They're not here to see me, are they?"

Lu Yao was shocked. He was the only one who could offend a Nascent Soul cultivator. Han Li was not that powerful yet.

Moreover, this suddenly appearing Nascent Soul immediately released its oppressive aura, clearly indicating it wasn't just passing by.

"Brother Han, get ready, I'm about to activate the grand formation!"

Lu Yao gave a soft shout and immediately activated the Great Teleportation Token in his hand.

Under the divine sense of a Nascent Soul cultivator, the presence of cultivators underground in the mine is not difficult to detect.

It was only a matter of time before he was discovered. Lu Yao knew he had to hurry. Once he was discovered by a Nascent Soul cultivator, his only option would be to escape into the Origin World.
