Chapter 280: Tianqing Mountain Range

Chapter 280: Tianqing Mountain Range

In the vast sky, a huge gryphon flapped its wings, and a faint light shield emanated from its body, resisting the oncoming gusts of wind.

Xiao Ming stood on the back of the gryphon with his hands behind his back, his gaze slowly retracting from the direction of the Inner Academy that had disappeared from his sight, with a hint of sadness in his expression.

However, this emotion was quickly dispelled.

"Xiao Ming, where are we headed next?" Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Zi Yan didn't seem to have any sadness on her face, and her little face was full of excitement.

"You're always so full of energy," said Xiao Ming, chuckling as he ruffled her hair

"We're headed to Horizon City in the Tianqing Mountain Range. From there, we'll use a spatial wormhole to travel to Central Plains."

"Spatial wormhole?" The three women were a bit confused when they heard this name for the first time.

"A spatial wormhole is a connection between two spatial points created by a Dou Venerate powerhouse using spatial power. If we travel through the spatial wormhole from the Black-Corner Region to the Central Plains, it will only take us a month to arrive."

"That a Dou Venerate powerhouse can wield such power is truly terrifying." Xiao Yi Xian said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Xiao Ming smiled and said, "Dou Venerate is not a difficult feat for you three. Alright, let's sit down and rest. There is still a long way to go, and we need to build up our strength."

With that, Xiao Ming sat down and began to meditate, the girls following suit. The gryphon continued its flight, carving a path through the endless expanse of sky.

...

Horizon City was located in the Tianqing Mountain Range, thousands of miles away from the Black-Corner Region. As the only city within a thousand miles with a spatial wormhole leading to the Central Plains, Horizon City was also one of the most prosperous cities in the area.

To travel from the Black-Corner Region to Horizon City at the speed of a gryphon beast would take almost half a month. During this half-month journey, Xiao Ming's realm broke through to two-star Dou Ancestor, and Xiao Yi Xian's strength reached the four-star Dou Ancestor.

On the gryphon, Zi Yan was playing with the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python when she suddenly stopped moving and pointed to the distant spot where a range of mountains suddenly protruded from the ground, exclaiming, "Xiao Ming, have we arrived?!"

Coming out of their meditation, Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian slowly opened their eyes and looked towards the distance.

He slightly stepped on his right foot, and invisible space ripples scattered outward.

Bang!

The purple serpent exploded directly in the air, like a gorgeous firework.

The man in purple saw the situation and his pupils shrank. He had been too distracted looking at the beauties and only now realized that Xiao Ming's strength was extraordinary. Quickly forming hand seals with both hands, he tried to retaliate.

"Brat, what's the use of having some strength? Today, this grandpa-"

Before the purple figure could finish his sentence, a loud noise rang out. Xiao Ming's shadow kicked him into the air, leaving Xiao Ming's afterimage in his original spot.

Bang!

After flying ten or thirteen meters, the purple figure was kicked back.

Bang!

Flying another ten meters, the figure was kicked back again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In this space of ten to thirteen meters, Xiao Ming seemed to be playing a one-man game, passing the hapless purple figure back and forth like a soccer ball.

Xiao Ming's speed was so fast that even his afterimage left behind at the handoff point could not dissipate in time, giving people the impression that he had used a clone.

Bang!

With a final kick to the man's forehead, he was sent flying to the bottom of the Tianqing Mountain Range, completely unconscious.

Xiao Ming caught him with one hand, stopping his falling body.

After examining the man to confirm his unconscious state, Xiao Ming slowly flew back onto the gryphon.
