Chapter 2168 Great Displacement Teleportation Formation 

Zhang Xuan did not rush into action after Fu Jiangchen left. Instead, he fell into deep thought.

There were two paths right before him at this very moment.

First, he could head to the Sky of Spirit Origin to find Luo Ruoxin and tell her that he was in the Firmament and that his cultivation had already reached high-tier Celestial God. Even though he was still a long way off from becoming a God Monarch, as long as he persevered, with the cheat code known as the Library of Heaven’s Path, he was confident that he could narrow the gap between the two of them.

Second, he could stay there and continue selling his Breakthrough Pills and Beauty Pills. Through this, he could expand his influence and gather more Anima of Yearning. In the future, he could push for a breakthrough to God King, Conferred God King, and possibly, just like Kong shi, reach God Monarch too!

He could only become worthy of Luo Ruoxin by reaching the same place where she was.

Otherwise, with his current cultivation realm, even if he found Luo Ruoxin, they still would not be able to make their relationship public.

But there was a problem with that.

“After the huge event that was just held, it doesn’t seem likely that I can spread my name any further any time soon…”

The Anima of Yearning that he received ever since he announced the release of the three pills had been increasing nonstop, but the rate of increase was slowly decreasing. Furthermore, after his cultivation reached high-tier Celestial God realm, the amount of soul energy that he needed to make a breakthrough became much higher.

At the very least, it would take a month or two before he was ready to attempt a breakthrough to become a God King.

Furthermore, he had not found any inspiration for his advancement to the God King realm yet. All of this meant that it was unlikely for him to make a breakthrough anytime soon.

If it was already that difficult for him to become a God King, did that not mean that it would at least take him several years before he could become a God Monarch?

That was too slow!

Zhang Xuan sighed once more.

It was one thing when he did not know where Luo Ruoxin was, but now that he knew where he could find her, there was no way he could hold himself back.

“Forget it, I’ll head to the Sky of Spirit Origin first. I’ll decide what to do next after meeting her…” Zhang Xuan solemnly made up his mind.

He had no idea why the old Deathless Monarch had passed away, but if Luo Ruoxin had taken over his position, it was unlikely that she would be in a comfortable position at the moment. Her strength likely paled in comparison to the rest of the God Monarchs, and that would mean that she was in a precarious situation.

If she was facing any difficulties, it was only right for him to stand by her side and face them together.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Xuan stood up and began walking out of the main hall. However, Qi Ling-er suddenly walked in at this moment.

“Young Master Zhang, the one hundred Breakthrough Pills and three thousand Beauty Pills have been sold. As for the Spirit Channeling Tablets, we’re still waiting for Zhang Xuan’s Pills to officially open for business in three days before putting them on sale.”

As the Spirit Channeling Tablets were aimed at normal cultivators, it was best to let the anticipation ripen a bit before selling them. Otherwise, if everyone got their hands on them right away, the sense of accomplishment upon obtaining one would be greatly reduced.

That would reduce the amount of Anima of Yearning that he received considerably.

“You have done well.” Zhang Xuan nodded. “I am planning to head over to the Sky of Spirit Origin to handle some matters. I’ll be counting on you and Sun Qiang to handle the business.”

With these two sharp-witted businessmen holding the fort, there was nothing he needed to worry about. His time would be much better spent on trying to find Luo Ruoxin.

“You are heading to the Sky of Spirit Origin?” Qi Ling-er was taken aback. “Young Master, how are you planning on heading there? Given the distance, even if you fly there on an aerial celestial beast, it’ll take you several years at the very minimum!”

The Sky of Drifting Specter was located in the northeast whereas the Sky of Spirit Origin was situated in the south. Given how large the Firmament was, the distance between these two places was frighteningly great!

“Aren’t there Teleportation Formations that connecting the Sky of Drifting Specter to the Sky of Spirit Origin?” Zhang Xuan asked.

Qi Ling-er was the one who had suggested that they use the Teleportation Formation to reach Royal City from Twilight City. Why would she suddenly ask such an obvious question?

“That Teleportation Formation, also known as the Minor Displacement Teleportation Formation, only allows you to teleport within the boundaries of the Sky of Drifting Specter. If you wish to transcend boundaries and teleport straight to the Sky of Spirit Origin, you’ll need the Great Displacement Teleportation Formation. However, it won’t be easy to use it,” Qi Ling-er explained.

“Great Displacement Teleportation Formation?”

This time, Zhang Xuan was the one who was confused.

Qi Ling-er shook her head helplessly at Zhang Xuan’s incomprehension. It was really amazing how the young man was so knowledgeable about all sorts of stuff, only to be utterly ignorant about some of the most basic things.

The Nine Skies Nine Monarchs are basically nine different countries. Each country has its own borders, so there’s no way outsiders would be allowed to cross the borders easily, not to mention using Teleportation Formations. If it was that easy to move from one Sky to the other, the major powers would have to constantly guard against one another, and chaos would ensue as soon as any power displayed the slightest hint of weakness!” Qi Ling-er explained.

It would not pose a problem if a cultivator wanted to move within the boundaries of the country that they belonged to, but of course, that could not be allowed when it came to other countries. If each of the Skies allowed outsiders to freely teleport into their own land, that would be pretty much giving them the ability to launch an invasion as and when they liked!

“I see… What’s the criteria required in order to use the Great Displacement Teleportation Formation?” Zhang Xuan asked.

“As far as I know, there are three ways in which you can use that formation,” Qi Ling-er replied. “First, if you become a God King or get into the top thirty of the Board of Potential God Kings and are highly skilled in a non-combat occupation, similar to Master Fu Jiangchen, you will be able to use the Teleportation Formations to travel around the Firmament without any restrictions!

“Alternatively, you could become an envoy of the Sky of Drifting Specter! However, the minimum rank requirement for becoming an envoy is to be a Golden Armored General in the military. Furthermore, you must accumulate sufficient contribution and receive a mandate straight from the Qiankun Demon Monarch.

“Last but not least, you can also receive a special permit from the Sky of Freedom. The Sky of Freedom is viewed to be the de facto leader of the Nine Skies, so their special permit will allow you to freely use the Teleportation Formations around the Firmament. However, the criteria for receiving the special permit are the same as the first option. You must be a God King or get into the top thirty of the Board of Potential God Kings. Otherwise, you’ll be crushed by the distortion in spatial laws when attempting to travel through the Great Displacement Teleportation Formation.

“No matter which way it is, you’ll need to have the cultivation of a high-tier Celestial God at the very minimum. However, Young Master Zhang’s current cultivation is…”

Feeling that she had gotten the point across, Qi Ling-er stopped her words right there.

She had seen how the young man’s cultivation rose from low-tier God to middle-tier Celestial God within the span of a few days.

There was no way she would not have been triggered after seeing something like this. So, she had begun to focus her effort on cultivating as well.

Fortunately, with the rise in her standing in the Qi Clan, she was provided with everything she needed in her cultivation. But even with ample resources and unyielding diligence, she had only managed to reinforce her low-tier Celestial God realm cultivation over the past week. It would still be a long time before she could make a breakthrough to middle-tier Celestial God realm.

Since this was the case for her, surely it would be the same for the young man.

The advancement in every single cultivation stage for a Celestial God was many times harder than that of a God.

Given so, there was no way Zhang Xuan would be able to withstand the pressure on his body from going through the Great Displacement Teleportation Formation.

The Minor Displacement Teleportation Formation was so frightening that one would require the protection of the City Lord Token, so the Major Displacement Teleportation Formation was bound to be even more fearsome. It was not a facility that anyone could use easily.

“Ah, are you worrying about my cultivation? You don’t need to. My cultivation has already reached high-tier Celestial God!”

As Zhang Xuan spoke, he revealed his cultivation to Qi Ling-er.

As a humble and low-profile person, there was no way he would brag about his breakthrough to others for no reason. A God King might still be able to see through his cultivation, but it was perfectly normal that a low-tier Celestial God could not do so.

You…”

The great pressure coming from Zhang Xuan made Qi Ling-er unwittingly take a step back. Her eyes widened in shock as her mouth fell agape.

Trembling nonstop, she slowly raised her right hand to clutch her chest so as to soothe her twitching heart.

This was too much!

It had only been ten or so days since they first met, but the young man had managed to raise his cultivation from a low-tier God all the way to a high-tier Celestial God, becoming a figure far beyond her reach.

Was it even possible for a human to cultivate that quickly?

It was at this moment that Qi Ling-er swore to the heavens that she would avoid talking about cultivation or the like before Zhang Xuan. Otherwise, she felt like her heart might really cave in one of these days…
