Teng Snake Remnant Soul

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

The airship weaved through the clouds, Ye Ling looked around curiously, even flying outside to touch it.

The Demon City also has flying Law Treasure, but they are all things like phoenix carriages or clouds; I've never seen an airship like this before.

In fact, not only in the Demon City, but other sects also hardly have this kind of product. It is a specialty of the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace. Even if other sects have it, they mostly obtain it through trade with the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace.

Qin Yi lay on the deck watching Ye Ling drift around like a curious child, not bothering to stop her. Since she was a silly snake that could fly, there was no problem with her falling down, so he didn't care how she played.

He was quite amazed by the extraordinary bloodline talent of this stupid snake. He had already set the airship to its maximum speed. If he were to fly at this speed, he could manage a short-term rampage, but he would definitely not be able to keep up in the long run. However, Ye Ling was able to fly with ease.

Judging from the looks of it, Ye Ling's limit is actually faster than this airship, but she would get exhausted after a while.

The distance from the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace to Transverse Rift Valley is tens of thousands of miles, which was clearly marked on the map given by Minghe at the time.

Heading south from the Immortal Palace, one must first traverse countless miles of uninhabited land, then cross the entire Da Qian Kingdom. Jing Ze, already a cultivator with a heart for music, has been painting his way here for two years since starting from a southern city of the Great Qian Kingdom, and still doesn't know where he's reached. Add to that the mountain ranges separating the Great Southern Li, and the vast territory of Southern Li itself, and it truly is a very long journey.

Ye Ling sped at top speed to call for help; no wonder she was exhausted.

"What injured your master? Were you by his side at the time?" Qin Yi finally asked.

Ye Ling flew back and sat down beside him. "It's a very strange place, gloomy and foggy everywhere. Master said there might be the Teng Snake Corpse inside, and that she would go in first to investigate before we went in together. But she only lasted a few breaths before collapsing out, only telling us to retreat quickly before fainting."

Qin Yi remained silent. Although Cheng Cheng's actions were ostensibly for the sake of expanding the Demon City, in this specific matter, it could be said that she was injured because of Ye Ling. It was perfectly normal for Ye Ling's heart to be completely devoted to her master...

My feelings towards Cheng Cheng are really complicated. I don't know if she is a ruthless emperor, a decisive and ruthless demon, or... a mute girl with a gentle smile like in a misty painting.

"She's fainted. Won't the Demon City, which was only recently unified, be thrown into chaos? With your strength, you should be able to keep things under control. Won't it cause problems if you run out like this?"

"No, Master usually cultivates on her own while issuing commands through her Human Avatar. This time, she's still sitting in the hall as her Human Avatar, so no one knows her real body is in trouble," Ye Ling said. "But this won't last long. If Master's real body doesn't appear for a long time, it will definitely cause confusion."

Qin Yi glanced at him sideways. "You seem to know quite a bit."

Although spending so much time in the palace should make her understand a little bit, and she should at least understand a little bit to avoid being so naive, Ye Ling becomes unlovable once she truly understands politics... It's such a contradiction.

Ye Ling said, "It was Sand Sculpture who told me... The Gang Jing even argued with it, saying it wouldn't matter if it didn't show up, and then Pigeon told me Sand Sculpture was right. Oh right, I also recruited a stone monster called Echo Monster, and it repeated Sand Sculpture's words. Three to one, the Gang Jing lost. Yingying said, the Gang Jing isn't even as smart as Sand Sculpture."

Qin Yi was Celestial Person astonished. Even a broken record like that? He couldn't possibly imagine the daily life of this Eastern Palace Guard... but why did he feel a little flutter in his heart? Oh no...

Ye Ling continued, "Even if Master doesn't reveal his true form, I still have to save him. After thinking it over, the only person I can turn to is my brother..."

A Little Ghost suddenly emerged from Qin Yi's ring and said, "I've been listening for a while. In that place you mentioned where the Teng Snake Corpse are, is the mist so tangible that you can hear ghostly wails outside, feel your soul tremble, as if your heart is contracting, and find it extremely terrifying?"

Ye Ling stared wide-eyed at the Little Ghost, her eyes growing brighter and brighter. Suddenly, she opened her little arms to hug it. "So cute!"

"Bang!" Ye Ling was pushed far away by an invisible force and sat down on the edge of the ship with a thud, her little mouth pouting, looking aggrieved.

The Little Ghost stood with its hands on its hips. "Don't touch me! You're too stupid, I'm afraid I'll catch your crap!"

Qin Yi said helplessly, "Why are you bullying Ye Ling? What do you mean by asking these questions? What do you know about this situation?"

Liusu snorted twice, "I'm checking if there's any Teng Snake Remnant Soul. If there is... how dare a mere Myriad Manifestations Demon venture in? They're truly courting death. You're lucky you didn't die on the spot."

Ye Ling: "???"

So what if it's Teng Snake Remnant Soul? A complete Soaring Serpent soul here is quite adorable too!

The air became quiet for a moment.

Qin Yi recalled that Ye Ling had been "rehabilitated," which was most likely due to the Enlightenment Pill that Liusu had taught him to make, so Ye Ling "forgot something" after that.

Liusu didn't admit it at the time.

Its initial attitude towards Ye Ling was very bad, and it was very wary of her. I thought it was because it was wary of the Soaring Serpent's ferocity... But now it seems that it really dislikes the Soaring Serpent... It may very well have been a mortal enemy back then...

Ye Ling asked tremblingly, "Brother... who is this Little Ghost? It looks like Yingying, but why is it so fierce?"

Liusu retorted angrily, "Your whole family looks like Yingying!"

Ye Ling, with her head bowed, felt that she didn't look like Yingying.

"Alright, alright." Qin Yi stepped between the two, somewhat helplessly. Liusu is becoming increasingly unreserved these days; perhaps she feels her recovery is enough to sweep through the Demon City, and it doesn't matter if Ye Ling finds out?

He didn't explain, only saying, "That's my brother's friend. Just think of it as an oddball Whining Creature... Anyway, did it ask you if the scene you just described was true?"

Ye Ling said, "I don't know. I didn't feel scared at all when I was standing outside."

Qin Yi shook his head. Logically speaking, if even this cowardly snake wasn't afraid, then it certainly wasn't scary. The problem was that it might be due to her bloodline that she wasn't affected, so it couldn't be taken as fact.

Most likely, Liusu tassel was right.

Cheng Cheng is already a powerful demon of all forms, also known as Huiyang. As the lord of the Demon City, she possesses many treasures and is not some miserable Rogue Cultivator. What could severely injure her within a few breaths is very likely indeed an ancient remnant soul of this kind.

However, Qin Yi was somewhat confused at this moment.

Beneath the rift should lie countless remains of these strange beasts, containing secrets of the ancient war and likely containing numerous treasures and cultivation Cultivation Method. Not to mention, the remains themselves are excellent materials for alchemy. Why don't powerful humans explore and clean up this place, leaving them at the bottom of the rift?

Minghe's master had obviously been here before and even marked the map. She was a powerful being, yet she didn't do anything about it.

The chess fanatic's tone suggested he had been there before... but they all ignored him.

Then there are the ancestors of the Demon Race, who were once very powerful, right? They even invaded the human world and caused Demon Calamity. They never even touched the surrounding areas right under their noses? That's strange.

There must be some secret here; we might need to ask Cheng Cheng to find out the whole story.

As they were pondering this, the airship had already passed Southern Li south, and the shape of a rift valley could be seen in the distance.

A distance of tens of thousands of miles is covered in a day and a night under the airship.

This is the story of traveling to the North Sea in the morning and Cangwu in the evening; the initial wish of cultivating immortality has long been fulfilled.

The Transverse Rift Valley remains as shrouded in mist as I remember, with a strange, inexplicable force enveloping the space. The rift is so wide that even birds cannot cross it.

Qin Yi's understanding of the place had changed drastically since then; he could now sense the Demon Power contained within the mist. It wasn't that birds couldn't cross it, but rather that any bird encountering the mist of this ravine would transform into a demon.

Human cultivators can't just fly in there carelessly; they need to take multiple precautions, otherwise their blood vessels can easily become disordered and cause problems. The fact that I was completely unharmed back then... was it because of the Liusu?

No, at that time, Liusu herself was also weak and did not have such protective power. It could make Kunpeng's breath instinctively retreat towards it, but that was for Kunpeng and could not possibly deal with the strange Demon Power of this entire rift valley.

Why is that?

The more knowledgeable I become, the less naive I am; ironically, the less I understand many things...
