"Bzz—"
The moment Ning Wangshu's Immortal Force surged into the token, a brilliant, wondrous light burst from it and enveloped him.
Then, through the haze, Ning Wangshu saw that, just as Shen Chuxia had said, mysterious Array Markings had suddenly appeared beneath his feet. The scene before him wavered, and he felt an inexplicable force tugging at his body, as though it were trying to pull him into the void.
Ning Wangshu didn't resist. He let the force pull him away...
As for Lin Qingzhu, Shen Chuxia, and the others,
all they saw was Ning Wangshu enveloped in wondrous light. The next moment, Array Markings appeared, the light flashed, and Ning Wangshu vanished before their eyes, token and all.
Seeing this, Lin Qingzhu and the others, who had already prepared themselves, drew in a breath and looked at one another.
"It seems that token really did take Wangshu to the Cangyuan Realm..."
Lin Qingzhu let out a soft breath and spoke slowly.
Shen Chuxia nodded. "If nothing unexpected happened, it should have. What just happened was almost exactly the same as the two times I activated that token before."
"I wonder how long it'll take my brother to come back."
Ning Ruoxuan spoke up.
Shen Chuxia glanced at her. "If time in the Cangyuan Realm still passes at the same rate compared to Earth as it did when Wangshu and I were there, then he should be back before long, at least by our reckoning."
"Yeah. I hope everything goes as we expect, and nothing goes wrong!"
Ning Ruoxuan nodded gently.
Meanwhile,
deep in the Cangyuan Realm's Wan Beast Mountain Range, where towering peaks rose one after another and demonic beasts roamed, space suddenly twisted. A brilliant, multicolored radiance burst forth.
Gradually, a figure emerged from within...
"Phew. Is this...
