She read through the other unimportant messages, most of which were Liu Shinian's complaints. Perhaps because Li Xingkong was in seclusion and wouldn't reply to messages, she simply treated Li Xingkong as her diary.
All the messages that came in were trivial matters.
It was like a daily record, detailing everything that had happened during that time, from meeting new friends at the tavern to learning new spells from the old man.
Li Xingkong only glanced at it before setting the news aside for the time being.
Peeping into a young girl's thoughts is never a good habit, although whether Liu Shinian can still be considered a young girl is another matter entirely.
Never mind, after looking around and finding nothing important, Li Xingkong quickly gathered the information aside and then took the warrant to find the acting steward.
When Li Xingkong arrived at the camp, the acting steward was already waiting for him.
With the entire Flying Cloud Pass under the control of the army, Li Xingkong's actions were naturally discovered immediately.
Just by observing the direction he's heading, you can tell he's coming to this camp.
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Li. My name is Kong Ren."
When the acting steward in the tent saw Li Xingkong, he first gave him a deep bow.
"There's no need for that, no need for that."
Li Xingkong had heard of Kong Ren before. Whether it was on Earth Star, in the Investiture of the Gods, or when he first Jade Void Base, he saw this person's name on the Concept Pearl in the warehouse.
Putting everything else aside, the bead that's Traversal on my body was personally struck by this person.
The descriptions of this person's appearance in the Myth were too bizarre, so Li Xingkong was quite curious after seeing him in person.
A novice may see the hand, but a master may know the palm.
Anyone would be curious about such an appearance.
However, when Li Xingkong met him in person, he suddenly realized the truth.
The ancients' descriptions are too abstract.
Kong Ren's eyes are indeed peculiar, but they are not unheard of; they are like the antennae of crabs and snails.
Moreover, after cultivating into human form, he could control these physical features at will; however, in his Dharma Aspect, his eyes remained unique.
"I've long heard of your reputation, my junior disciple. And this Traversal I possess was something you personally obtained from Dijiang."
Li Xingkong revealed his skills.
"Really? What a coincidence! This Dijiang is quite a troublesome character, but unfortunately, his ability to Traversal time is my natural counter. It's truly a stroke of luck, a stroke of luck indeed."
Kong Ren acted quite modestly, but Li Xingkong had already grasped the concept of Traversal, and he knew how troublesome it would be to use Traversal to escape.
"If it weren't for my keen eyesight, I really wouldn't have been able to win him over."
"Oh? Junior nephew, could you possibly see through the location of the Traversal?"
Li Xingkong was a little curious. Even if their location was traced, it shouldn't be impossible to escape.
"That's not true. Although my eyes have some ability, they're not that insightful."
Kong Ren explained with a smile.
" Dijiang's ability to Traversal is indeed useful for escaping, but I can see the location of the Traversal gate the moment he activates his concept, and then destroy that gate."
"It was also thanks to the Nine Dragon Divine Fire Fan in my hand, and the 'first- One Step Ahead of Others' granted by my sect, that I had the opportunity to take him down."
"These are all minor matters, not worth mentioning. It seems you're here to go to the front lines as well?"
Li Xingkong heard him speak so lightly, but he imagined the risks behind it were enormous.
"That's right. After so many years of seclusion, I've gained some insights, and it's a good opportunity to verify them on the front lines."
"Uncle-Master Huang had anticipated this. These are the coordinates of the front lines. I will then send a squad of soldiers to accompany you there."
Kong Ren sent the coordinates he had to Li Xingkong. After Li Xingkong, he glanced at them and immediately located the front-line position.
The effect of a large-scale military campaign is indeed different from that of a small-scale skirmish. Li Xingkong vaguely remembered that when he went out before, the area around the Blade Flower Sea was already the front line of the battle between the two armies. But now, the coordinates were much further forward than before.
Even Li Xingkong, using his Traversal abilities, had to jump several times to get there.
"Securing the position is enough; as for soldiers, there's no need, no need."
Li Xingkong knew that Huang Feihu was worried that he would crash, but Li Xingkong was completely different from before, so there was no reason for him to crash.
Once again, after leaving Flying Cloud Pass, the scene before me was vastly different.
The vast wasteland outside Flying Cloud Pass, which was originally covered by the Calamity Ash, has disappeared, and instead, many small settlements have appeared.
The checkpoints were too cumbersome, so some cultivators set up stalls outside the pass to exchange goods. Over time, the area outside Flying Cloud Pass became less desolate and gained some human activity.
As for the Calamity Ash, long after Li Xingkong obtained the Dao Calamity Pill, this thing had already become a strategic resource and was completely collected.
Small settlements, scattered here and there, had spread all the way to the vicinity of the original Blade Flower Sea, but now, the so-called Blade Flower Sea has long since disappeared.
Since the last great battle, the sword energy and Limsa Lominsa here have been blown outside Flying Cloud Pass by the aftershocks and landed on the iron wall of Flying Cloud Pass, without even causing a ripple.
Instead, clusters of petals formed from Sword Qi bloomed across the entire land.
Every battle between immortals causes changes in the heavens and earth; the place names in this Primordial World are changed far too frequently.
Li Xingkong didn't linger there; he had to catch up with the front lines.
In a flash, Li Xingkong returned to the place where he and Liu Shinian were refining concepts. This place had been incorporated into the control of Jade Void and had become a popular destination for cultivators.
When Li Xingkong appeared, he saw several cultivators taking photos in front of the giant flower.
The flower remains in its original place, its body imbued with the Qingjue, Li Xingkong, Liu Shinian, and even the concept of the Yiying. So many immortals have collectively "constructed" this flower, a rare sight even outside Flying Cloud Pass.
Well, at least I've left a trace of my existence in this Era of Chaos.
Li Xingkong got up again and jumped once more.
The place they arrived at was deserted. In an area where space was shattered like a kaleidoscope, a particularly prominent and orderly passage "crashed" straight in.
Li Xingkong only needed to investigate briefly before drawing a conclusion.
This kaleidoscope-like area must be the result of a battle between two cultivators who had mastered spatial concepts, and that passage must have been created by the expeditionary army.
