Chapter 178.2
A few months later, Tan Eyu also completely recovered. As soon as her soul was raised, she no longer wanted to stay in the Soul-nurturing Wood. However, when people knew about the Tianlong Royal Family, she couldn’t bear to go out and set up a stall.
Cheng Qi, who had just come out of the Qiankun Realm with Li Tianyan, saw Tan Eyu standing upright in the room and finally remembered something. “Tan Eyu, why did you seem so surprised when you saw my flames that day?”
“It wasn’t the first time I had seen your flames. When had you ever seen me surprised?” Tan Eyu was confused by the question. Even back then, when it was her first time seeing the brat grilling meat with Yin Fire, she wasn’t so surprised.
“On that day when you were struck by lightning, you became a different person,” Cheng Qi reminded.
Hearing that she had been struck by lightning, Tan Eyu trembled with lingering fear and then said angrily, “How would I know about her?”
“Why don’t you call her out and ask her?” Li Tianyan had clearly seen Tan Eyu’s reaction that day.
“That Tianlong’s spiritual energy had been exhausted. I’m afraid I won’t be able to summon her for a while.” Tan Eyu yawned, then changed her position and continued to lay down.
“That’s it.” Cheng Qi smiled sheepishly when he heard that her energy had been exhausted.
Since they couldn’t figure out the reason, the two of them put the matter aside and went about other things.
After Li Tianyan finished what he had to do and made all the arrangements, they went back to live with the Cheng family for a few months and then decided to leave Hengwu Continent.
Li Tianyan kept a low profile, and no one knew about it except the Supreme Elder of the Tianfan Immortal Sect, Cheng Yi, his wife, and Cheng Yu.
Even Huo Xing and others, Li Tianyan only met with them once before leaving, but didn’t mention their departure.
“Young master, are we going down there?” Cheng Qi vaguely saw a huge grey vortex in the clouds and mist under the cliff and couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
According to Tian Min’s instructions, Li Tianyan had finally found the boundary of the continent and entrance into Infinite Island, but he discovered that the boundary only had one cliff, which looked more like the end of Hengwu Continent.
The whirlpool in the clouds and mist should have been the passage to other continents.
“Well, are you afraid?” Li Tianyan touched Cheng Qi’s cheek. Across the passage laid a strange world.
“Not afraid,” Cheng Qi shook his head firmly and said, as long as he was with Li Tianyan, it would be the same no matter where he went.
“Let’s go then.” Li Tianyan took a step forward and reached out to hug Cheng Qi tightly.
Cheng Qi almost wrapped his arms and legs around Li Tianyan, fearing that he might be separated accidentally.
Li Tianyan couldn’t help but smile when he saw this and spawned dozens of vines. He simply tied Cheng Qi to his body, then jumped off the cliff with him and submerged into the whirlpool.
As soon as they entered the whirlpool, Cheng Qi felt a strong force pulling them, he hugged Li Tianyan’s body tighter.
Immediately afterward, another sharp object scraped past him, and Cheng Qi had the feeling that if he were stabbed, the object would immediately penetrate his body.
Just as he was about to release the nether fire, the discomfort suddenly disappeared. It turned out that Li Tianyan had used earth element energy to condense a thick protective layer around the two of them, blocking the strong wind in the whirlpool.
Cheng Qi wanted to open his eyes to check, but suddenly there was a sharp pain in his sea of consciousness, so he could only close his eyes and hide in Li Tianyan’s arms.
The bodies of the two were pulled by the force of the whirlpool. The deeper they went, the denser and stronger it became, and the protective layer covering the two of them grew thicker and thicker.
The two of them could only hear the sound of the whistling wind and the strong wind hitting the protective layer. This whirlpool passage seemed to have no end. Fortunately, Li Tianyan’s true spiritual energy was strong and kept the two of them airtight.
Cheng Qi felt a little bored, so he simply released the Nether Fire to cover Li Tianyan’s protective layer. The Nether Fire was his natal magical power, and when it was simply released, it didn’t need to consume much energy.
The strong wind in the whirlpool had no chance to touch the protective layer. As soon as it got close, it was burned by Cheng Qi’s Nether Fire. He simply used these gale winds to continue honing his Nether Fire Burning Life Technique.
Seeing him like this, Li Tianyan withdrew his true spiritual energy slightly, leaving only a thin layer covering the two of them.
.
“Since you can’t let them go, why don’t you give them a ride in person?” Su Yu had come to Qingdan Palace and saw Tian Min standing on the field outside the hall, looking a little lonely.
“The cultivators don’t need to be like mother hen, why should I tag along everywhere?” Tian Min turned around and looked at the visitor, saying.
“That’s true. Why don’t we have a few drinks together today?” Su Yu suggested.
“You can have a few drinks, but you’ll have to take care of the drinks,” Tian Min said with a cheerful smile.
But Su Yu couldn’t help frowning and complaining, “You are so stingy. We’ve been friends for many years, and you’re not even willing to buy me a glass of spiritual wine.”
“It’s not that I’m unwilling, it’s just that all the spiritual wine I saved was emptied by two disciples,” Tian Min explained with a smile.
Su Yu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and laughed, “Okay, wait, I’ll go back and get it.”
.
They didn’t know how much time had passed, but Li Tianyan and Cheng Qi, who were trapped in the vortex of the passage, simultaneously discovered that something was spying on them.
The feeling was very strong, as if everything about the two of them was visible to the other party, and even Li Tianyan’s Sea of Consciousness seemed to have been searched.
Li Tianyan thought to himself that it was fortunate that he hadn’t entered the passage rashly before Cheng Qi had formed the core, otherwise, the two of them might not have been able to reach the other side.
When the sense of spying disappeared, the whirlpool channel also threw the two of them out. Before Li Tianyan could stand firm while holding Cheng Qi, he sensed danger coming and immediately dodged to the side.
The vines tied to his body disappeared, and Cheng Qi quickly jumped off Li Tianyan and used the fire whip to be on guard.
But after seeing the scene clearly, Cheng Qi’s scalp suddenly went numb. “Young master, we seem to have fallen into a snake’s nest.”
