"Good, it's a deal. I'll definitely visit Immortal Herb Palace another day, Fellow Daoist Shi, and we can continue discussing the art of artifact refining. To be honest, I've gained a great deal from speaking with you." Yang Zongyue spoke sincerely.
After seeing Yang Zongyue off, dusk had already fallen.
Over the next few days, with Shangguan Yan accompanying them, Shi Yue and the other Spirit Transmutation cultivators toured Nine Flames Sect's scenic spots.
To be honest, there wasn't much to do. At their level, cultivation was what mattered most, so they could advance to the next realm as soon as possible.
Shi Yue got along well with Zhuge Bingyun and Yang Zongyue. He sought Zhuge Bingyun's advice on alchemy and discussed artifact refining with Yang Zongyue.
Anyone with a keen eye could tell that Shi Yue had good relations with both Xuanxue Palace and the Yang Family.
Five days later, Shi Yue bid Ouyang Ming farewell. Ouyang Ming had wanted to send someone to protect him, but Shi Yue politely declined.
After leaving Nine Flames Sect, Shi Yue summoned his Flying Magic Treasure and flew southeast with Xiaoyaozi.
Shi Yue planned to buy some things. Now that Xiaoyaozi was traveling with him, he no longer needed to keep his actions under wraps.
As long as no Body Integration cultivator made a move, he believed he'd be safe. Those old monsters in the Body Integration Realm shouldn't target someone as young as him.
Three days later, on a boundless grassland, Shi Yue and Xiaoyaozi stood aboard a Red Flying Boat as it sped through the air.
The area was rather desolate, with only a handful of cultivators within a thousand-mile radius.
Shi Yue formed a hand seal, and the Red Flying Boat came to a halt.
