In the void, the space transport ship turned around and hovered at the edge of the wormhole, next to a huge silver metal ring.
Chen Mu's interdimensional teleportation array was set up inside this silver metal circle. Rather than calling it a teleportation array, it would be more accurate to call it a locator.
In fact, Chen Mu had never seen an interdimensional teleportation array before, nor had he obtained the complete inheritance for constructing one. The reason he was able to construct this teleportation array was because he relied on the basic knowledge that the Rune Ancestor had imparted to him within the inheritance light point, and then, through his own understanding, he finally succeeded in creating it.
Therefore, the interdimensional teleportation array he constructed was full of Earth's technological features, and was completely different from the traditional teleportation arrays of this world.
In legends, only gods can construct interdimensional teleportation arrays, and there has never been a precedent of a cultivator below the God Level constructing one.
This demonstrates just how terrifyingly advanced Chen Mu's skills in Dao of Talismans have become.
The space transport ship extended two mechanical arms and inserted them into the connectors on the metal ring. Chen Mu followed the channels of the mechanical arms and entered the interior of the metal ring directly.
Inside the metal ring, the walls were covered with densely packed runes. In Chen Mu's eyes, most of these runes were useless. The first-generation product always had many imperfections and needed rounds of iteration to become more and more perfect.
Chen Mu quickly arrived at the center of the interdimensional teleportation array. He sat down cross-legged, connected his Divine Soul with the array spirit, and slowly transmitted the latest data.
He used his Dharma Power to adjust the array base structure inside the metal ring to enhance the effect of the interdimensional teleportation array.
Soon, an hour passed, and Chen Mu had basically finished. He withdrew his Dharma Power and left the metal circle.
This interdimensional teleportation metal ring requires maintenance and Spirit Stone replacement every year or so. The next maintenance will likely be handled by other staff at the Rune Research Institute, so Chen Mu shouldn't be coming again.
"Let's go! Let's set off now and head into the Netherworld!"
Chen Mu waved his hand, activated the space transport ship, and sailed into the Netherworld.
When the space transport ship emerged from the backyard of the Manju Imperial Palace, it startled many people.
Fortunately, Mingye arrived from the temple in time and quelled the commotion among the soldiers around the palace.
" Mingye, I'm back!"
Chen Mu parked the transport ship in an open area, then ran out with a smile to greet Mingye.
Having not seen Mingye for more than half a year, he always felt a little empty inside. Now that he had finally met him in person, he was naturally happy.
"So you finally decided to come back? Why didn't you stay on the Pan Emperor Continent for a few more years?"
Mingye smiled slightly, but everyone could feel the sharp killing intent emanating from her face.
"Hey! Don't be angry. A lot has happened in the Chen Kingdom recently. They've even been attacked by the Heavenly Puppet Sect right at their doorstep."
If I hadn't happened to be back then, the consequences would have been unimaginable...
Chen Mu quickly explained to Mingye.
"I'm not angry! What do I have to be angry about?"
Mingye turned her head away from Chen Mu, but noticed Chen Duo walking out of the transport ship in the open space in the distance.
" Duoduo."
Mingye and Chen Duo have always had a good relationship, so she immediately flew towards Chen Duo, completely leaving Chen Mu standing there.
Chen Mu could only awkwardly touch his nose, turn around and follow Mingye back to the outside of the transport ship.
"You..."
Mingye noticed that Chen Duo and the dozen or so talisman masters that Chen Mu had brought all looked listless. She immediately realized that it was due to the rejection of the Heavenly Dao, so she opened her arms and summoned the Netherworld Pearl.
"Untie!"
A beam of purple light shot out from the Netherworld Pearl, enveloping Chen Duo and the dozen or so talisman masters, whose expressions immediately relaxed.
"Sister Ming, it's been a long time."
As a body cultivator, Chen Duo recovered the fastest among the others. Once she felt fine, she immediately greeted Mingye with a smile.
"Haha, I didn't expect you to come too. Come on, let me show you around the Netherworld."
Although this place isn't as large as the Pan Emperor Continent, it has its own unique features and will surely give you a great time.
Since having her mother's company, Mingye's personality has become more and more cheerful, and she even took the initiative to take Chen Duo shopping.
Chen Duo had no choice but to look at Chen Mu. She was much more composed now and would consult Chen Mu for advice whenever she encountered a problem.
"Go ahead! Leave the unloading to me, have some fun."
Chen Mu naturally wouldn't object to Mingye's idea and immediately let Chen Duo leave.
Whoosh! A small white warship flew over to Mingye's palace. This was naturally Mingye's vehicle. After Mingye and Chen Duo entered, it flew away from the palace with a whoosh.
"Let's go! You all go back to the transport ship, we're heading to Iron Soul City."
Chen Mu stopped here so that Mingye could help these talisman masters break free from the Heavenly Dao Dao's rejection of the Netherworld. Now that they had broken free, Chen Mu naturally wouldn't linger here. They restarted the transport ship and headed towards Iron Soul City.
Relying on the Spirit Network, Chen Mu quickly learned what had happened to the Manju Imperial Court during his absence.
Over the past six months, the Manju Imperial Court's war has been very successful, steadily advancing and occupying more and more territory in the Netherworld.
To this day, excluding those desolate, forbidden human territories, two-thirds of the Netherworld's territory has submitted to the Manju Imperial Court.
During the past six months, the Asura Sacred King had gathered seven Sage and plotted a sneak attack on Mingye.
However, thanks to the extraordinary abilities of the Netherworld Pearl and the small porcelain bottle, Mingye not only avoided defeat in that battle, but also joined forces with the Manju Sacred King to kill three Sage and injure the Asura Sacred King.
Although she ultimately failed to capture the Asura Sacred King, after that battle, the Asura Imperial Court began to retreat into a defensive posture and could no longer cause any trouble.
More than an hour later, Chen Mu docked the transport ship in Iron Soul City and then ordered his men to unload the cargo and send it to the Rune Research Institute, Netherworld Branch.
" Taiping, these are all outstanding talisman masters from the Pan Emperor Continent headquarters. Please greet them."
I will have them stay here for about six months, so that you can all master the excellent technology at headquarters.
In addition, I plan to select ten outstanding talisman masters from here to go to the Pan Emperor Continent for an exchange. They will depart in about ten days. Please help me choose the candidates later. Everything is voluntary, so please don't force anyone.
After Chen Mu arrived at the Netherworld branch, he handed over more than a dozen talisman masters to Li Taiping, while Li Wei reunited with Shi Xing's soul. He was too embarrassed to disturb Li Wei.
