Chu Tian frowned, he had forgotten about not having money.
"Then what do we do, fly back? Wouldn't that take a long time?"
"Not necessarily. If we go out from here and reach the border of the Tower Clan, there's a hidden teleportation array that can take us directly to the Yanhuang Great Domain. However, the problem is it's quite unstable!"
...
Swish, swish, swish...
Under the cover of night, Chu Tian and his group were traveling at high speed.
The night here was much more beautiful than on the Blue Star.
The moon was large, and there were countless stars.
They emitted different lights, and occasionally, colorful nebulae drifted across the sky.
In a single night, Chu Tian and the others passed through over a dozen cities.
Daybreak was beginning to break.
Sister Hong suggested they stop to rest.
Chu Tian had no objections, though he didn't feel any fatigue.
At their current speed, even if Chu Tian flew for ten to fifteen days, he wouldn't feel tired.
Finding a secluded mountain hollow to stop, two men went to search for food, but Chu Tian stopped them.
As for food, Chu Tian no longer had much need for it.
However, out of habit, he stored a lot of food in his spatial dimension.
He produced several self-heating hot pots.
Sister Hong and the others were dumbfounded.
They had never seen dried rations that could heat themselves just by adding some water.
And with soup and broth, the spicy flavor...
It was so good that a few of them almost bit off their tongues.
While eating, Qing Qing curiously asked Chu Tian why he could use the Tower Clan's divine abilities.
And it was a seven-story pagoda.
The reason they could leave the city was precisely because Chu Tian displayed the seven-story pagoda, which allowed them to pass unhindered.
Of course, the four of them had been tied up by Chu Tian.
When they decided to set off.
Chu Tian suddenly made a move and tied them up.
The group, who were chatting happily a moment before.
Were suddenly terrified. As Chu Tian dragged them towards the city gate.
Qing Qing cursed all the way.
Only after passing through layers of checkpoints and leaving the Tower City did Chu Tian release them.
This left the group utterly confused.
They found Chu Tian to be a very strange person.
He was a pure-blooded human yet could use the Tower Clan's divine abilities.
If it were a fake, a pure-blooded human couldn't possibly impersonate them. Taking a blood bead would inevitably result in a backlash.
And if he were impersonating a Tower Clan member.
That was also impossible.
Because the pagoda Chu Tian displayed did not appear to be a magical artifact.
It grew directly from his palm.
It was one with him.
The Tower Clan's divine abilities were just like this.
It was impossible to fool them with a pagoda-shaped magical artifact.
"Just good luck!" Chu Tian smiled and said to her.
"Luck?" The group was very surprised.
"Have you heard of the Nine-Story Qiankun Pagoda?" Chu Tian asked back.
"Nine-Story Qiankun Pagoda? A magical artifact?" Sister Hong and the others frowned.
Chu Tian shook his head.
"Does your dantian have no shape?" Chu Tian continued to ask.
"Dantian...! Ah?!"
The group was somewhat confused.
But after Qing Qing muttered something, she suddenly shouted.
"Qing Qing, what are you being so cunning and sneaky for? You scared me!" Sister Hong, sitting next to her, patted her chest in fright.
Qing Qing ignored her and pointed at Chu Tian.
"You... you're not saying your dantian is shaped like the Nine-Story Qiankun Pagoda, one of the Ten Supreme Heavenly Talents, are you?"
As soon as she said this, the other three were struck by lightning.
They all froze and looked at Chu Tian.
Seeing Chu Tian nod, the group looked at him with strange expressions.
Envy, disbelief, admiration...
Mixed emotions.
"What's wrong?" Chu Tian asked.
Sister Hong shook her head, remaining silent.
This time, even Qing Qing didn't speak.
Chu Tian found it even stranger, a bit abnormal!
However, since they didn't say anything, he couldn't just search their souls.
After resting, they set off again. The group traveled day and night.
Finally, Chu Tian noticed a change in the terrain.
Although it was still a plain, it felt like a gentle slope.
The terrain seemed to be sloping downwards.
"We're almost there!" Sister Hong said.
Soon, the downward slope leveled out, but Sister Hong and the others suddenly stopped.
Chu Tian had already noticed that the direction they were heading towards had a cliff-like precipice.
"Go down from here, enter that mountain range, and we'll be there!"
The cliff was not a problem for Chu Tian and the others.
However... as soon as they landed, Chu Tian frowned. In his divine sense, he detected a large camp in the direction Sister Hong had pointed.
From their previous vantage point, they were already above the clouds, so they hadn't noticed it.
Chu Tian was unfamiliar with the area but could tell that the camp was unusual.
Inside the camp, all the tents were of a simple, collapsible type.
Many people were active within, all wearing standard armor.
Sister Hong and the others were also stunned when they came down, their expressions changing.
"This is the Tower Clan's territory. Why are the Amo Clan's troops here?"
Chu Tian tilted his head and looked at her: "Amo Clan? Aren't they to the southeast of the Tower Clan? Why are they here? Are you sure?"
Sister Hong shook her head; they were definitely Amo Clan members.
Although they had ripped off their insignia and were not flying any banners, the cooking utensils they used were only used by the Amo Clan.
"Cooking utensils?" Chu Tian looked over. In the camp, the large pots were all made from the skulls of some creatures.
This immediately made Chu Tian feel a bit nauseous.
"Good thing we used that crevice to hide our presence when we came down, otherwise we would have been discovered by them," said Qing Qing.
"They could actually get to this side. Such a massive army... it looks like they're planning a surprise attack somewhere."
"Who cares? Those guys are just fighting amongst themselves. Let's go around them!"
This was the only way. Chu Tian didn't express any opinion.
He recalled Yue Shang's theft of the map.
For such a vast Great Domain, there must be some secret routes, but they would require a detailed map.
Could Yue Shang have sent the map back?
No...!
Even if he had sent it back, it was impossible for such a large force to travel halfway across the Great Domain in such a short time to get here.
"Let me ask, is it difficult to get a map?" Chu Tian said to Sister Hong ahead.
"Not difficult! What's wrong?" Qing Qing interjected first.
Chu Tian flicked his wrist, and a roll of parchment appeared.
"Someone gave me a map, and they said it's of the entire Tower Clan Great Domain!"
As he spoke, he unrolled the map.
Sister Hong and the others leaned in to look.
"A map of the Great Domain? Oh, if that's the case, it's indeed quite difficult to obtain! And this is a detailed map... the person who gave it to you is not simple!" Qing Qing said after a glance.
Sister Hong also chimed in.
"This map is a rare specimen even within the Tower Clan. Such maps are absolutely not allowed to be copied by others."
Chu Tian's eyes narrowed.
"The person who gave me the map is from the Amo Clan!"
