In Fan Jing's hand was a rudimentary map of the Tomb of the Gods, which marked several spatial tunnels leading back to the Pan Emperor Continent.
The nearest spatial tunnel was not far from the exit where they entered the Tomb of the Gods, so they simply returned the way they came, which reduced the danger considerably.
After Fan Jing retrieved the relic, his strength increased significantly, and his speed also increased considerably. Chen Mu had to exert all his strength to keep up with him.
" Chen Mu, to be honest, although you are not the strongest talisman master I have ever seen, you are the one with the strongest learning ability I have ever seen."
Other talisman masters who come here wouldn't dare leave for at least ten days or half a month, but you were able to send out puppets to scout in just one day. It's truly unheard of.
Based on your example, I can foresee that the Chen Kingdom will soon become a dominant power.
Therefore, I hope to have a long-term partnership with you in the future. I can offer you a 20% discount on services such as pursuit, assassination, escort, and intelligence gathering. I hope you will contact us first if you have any needs.
On the way, Fan Jing couldn't help but start promoting Listening Wind Tower to Chen Mu, which showed that he had indeed put a lot of effort into it.
"No problem, I hope to have a pleasant cooperation in the future!"
Although Chen Mu was a little uncomfortable with Listening Wind Tower's cooperation with the Otherworldly Demon, he believed that business is business, and such profit-driven businessmen were often easier to deal with than those with ambiguous stances.
In less than three days, they finally arrived at the space tunnel leading back to the Pan Emperor Continent.
" Chen Mu, the exit of the space tunnel from the Tomb of the Gods back to the Pan Emperor Continent is random, meaning it could potentially teleport you to any location on the Pan Emperor Continent."
That's why the spatial coordinate stone I gave you earlier came in very handy. When you're in the spatial tunnel, take out the spatial coordinate stone and try to fly in the direction indicated by the coordinate stone. That way, we can return to the vicinity of Guangling City.
Otherwise, if you were teleported to some remote place, it would take years just to fly back to the city, and you'd be furious by then.
Standing in front of the space tunnel, Fan Jing explained some key points about traveling back to Chen Mu.
"Okay, I understand! Thank you for your help, Brother Fan Jing."
Chen Mu understood that if it weren't for Fan Jing leading the way, he didn't know how much trouble he would have encountered if he had come to the Tomb of the Gods alone.
"By the way! There's something I don't understand, and I hope Brother Fan Jing can enlighten me."
"Oh, what's the problem?"
"Brother Fan Jing, since this tunnel can lead back to the Pan Emperor Continent, why don't the creatures of the Tomb of the Gods use this tunnel to travel to the Pan Emperor Continent?"
The environment here is so harsh that I imagine every living thing would want to escape.
Fan Jing laughed upon hearing this.
"Do you think the Heavenly Dao of the Pan Emperor Continent is just sitting around doing nothing? If any creature from outside the Pan Emperor Continent went there, it would be Heavenly Tribulation blasted into dust by the Heavenly Tribulation and die even faster. The creatures here aren't stupid."
Chen Mu frowned.
"Since Heavenly Dao rejects beings from other realms, why doesn't it expel the Otherworldly Demon?"
"Hehe, the Abyss Devil Race naturally have their own methods. Don't bother asking me about it. I'm not entirely sure either; I only have some guesses."
"You'll understand when you get the information about the Abyss Devil Realm later."
"Alright! Thank you, Brother Fan Jing."
After they were ready, the two stepped into the space tunnel one after the other, returning to the Pan Emperor Continent.
Yang Province, a city with thriving commerce and entertainment, has been a place where talented men and beautiful women have emerged since ancient times.
After Chen Mu emerged from the space tunnel, he found himself in mid-air.
"How did someone suddenly appear? And can even fly?"
He looked down and saw a lake below, with a phoenix boat slowly gliding by. Many people were standing on the deck, looking at him with curiosity.
" Guangling City... is just over there!"
He quickly determined the direction based on the magnetic poles of the Pan Emperor Continent.
"This young master..."
A richly dressed man stepped out from the crowd aboard the sailboat, intending to greet Chen Mu, but Chen Mu ignored them and vanished in a flash.
"An immortal! A divine being..."
The ordinary people on the ship all stared wide-eyed, knowing they were about to meet someone extraordinary.
The wealthy man looked around and, seeing that Chen Mu was indeed gone, sighed helplessly.
"Alas! I wonder when I will have the honor of becoming such a person."
About half an hour later, Chen Mu arrived in Guangling City and went directly into the courtyard where the Listening Wind Tower was staying.
"Master Chen Kingdom, the host has just returned. He asked me to tell you to wait a moment in the tea room."
He'll come to see you once he's packed what you asked for.
As soon as Chen Mu entered the courtyard, the obese old man who had greeted him before came out to greet him.
"Alright! Then I'll take my leave."
Chen Mu also knew that Fan Jing wouldn't entrust such important intelligence to his subordinates; it was normal for it to take some time to organize it.
He followed the obese old man into the tea room and began to drink tea.
" Zi'an, did anything happen while I was away?"
Although he had only been gone for a day according to the timeline of the Pan Emperor Continent, he was still a little worried and used ultra-long-distance communication technology to establish contact with Gu Zi'an.
"Everything is going well! Proceeding as planned."
After receiving Gu Zi'an's reply, Chen Mu felt relieved and waited patiently.
He waited for more than an hour before Fan Jing finally came to see him.
" Chen Mu, this is all the information I have about the Heavenly Court and the Abyss Devil Race. I'm giving it all to you now."
Fan Jing acted swiftly, immediately handing two scrolls to Chen Mu.
"The scroll is sealed; anyone whose spiritual sense sweeps over it will be automatically incinerated. This is the method by which Listening Wind Tower controls information; please understand."
"Understood! This information is only known to my people; it won't be shared with anyone else."
If you trade with Listening Wind Tower, you must abide by Listening Wind Tower's rules. The intelligence purchased from Listening Wind Tower can only be used internally by that organization. If you resell this intelligence to other organizations, you are making an enemy of Listening Wind Tower and will be held accountable by Listening Wind Tower.
Of course, it's fine to just reveal some information. The key is not to openly steal Listening Wind Tower's business. Otherwise, if anyone buys the information and resells it on the street at a low price, Listening Wind Tower will have no business.
"Of course I trust Brother Chen, it's just a formality."
Fan Jing smiled; finding the Śarīra was extremely important to him.
Chen Mu examined the scroll, which contained a brief overview of its contents. After confirming that it was the information he needed, he nodded.
"Then I'll be going now. Thank you for the tea, Brother Fan!"
Chen Mu picked up the teacup on the table and drank it all in one gulp.
"It's a pleasure doing business with you!"
Fan Jing also picked up a cup of tea and drank it.
After leaving the courtyard, Chen Mu released his Rune Puppet Flying Car, which transformed into a streak of flame and flew towards the public teleportation array.
