Chapter 5347: Borrowing A Pair Of Wings?

"Still, with all due respect, I don’t think this mission is worthy enough for me to be bestowed the World Hegemon Grade Treasure. What else is there in store for me, like something that would make me want to abandon this place and run?"

Lest Mistwalker wryly chuckled.

"Perceptive, but indeed." Davis chuckled, "I’m not just thinking of having a flying continent for my family. That would be ridiculous since we would be easily caught. I want this flying continent to blip across space- like it teleported."

"..."

The hall went silent while Mingzhi nodded with amusement as she turned to look at Lest Mistwalker, then suddenly shot back a look at Davis, her expression full of disbelief.

"Huh!?"

Davis nodded to Mingzhi, calmly explaining, "Stella already has the power to transport people or whatever it is inside her spatial realm to another spatial realm located in another location using her ability to shift space. It already allows us greater escape means, but the Upper Realm Space is incredibly vast, so her range could not cover the entirety of the Upper Realms, much less half of it. I feel it would be the same even if she reaches the Exalt Stage."

"Hence, I arrived at the conclusion that we don’t need to trouble her with planting mini realms all over the Upper Realm Space. Instead, we’ll have one powerful sanctuary that’s the size of a Minor Realm, but with the extreme defenses of an Upper Realm. Stella had told me she had learned her mother’s ability to sling people through space. The only difference now is that we’ll have her sling the flying continent as we blip across space."

"How can that even be done!? To compress an entire continent and send it flying across space like it’s placed on a catapult, is that even possible?"

"Stella should become powerful enough to hurl a continent once she steps into the Exalt Stage and has enough energy. However, I’m not planning to rely on her alone. This is where I need Fairy Divinacia’s help."

"Me?" Fairy Divinacia looked perplexed.

How could she possibly help here? As a Seraphic Azure Tree, she was capable of fast flight, but she didn’t see how that could accomplish something like a spatial blip travel that was nearly comparable to teleportation.

"Fairy Divinacia, your true body is truly resilient and powerful, capable of withstanding tremendous forces, even frightening enough to withstand the backlash from the heavens when we dealt with the Desolate Era together. Stella probably will not allow you to root yourself in her world deeply, so what I’m about to say cannot be accomplished in just the sanctuary alone. That’s why we need the Golden Radiance Continent as well."

"My plan is for you to root your true body in the central continent of the Golden Radiance Continent as you settle yourself in one of the five important spatial nodes that will be specifically created for the Azure Tree Race. You, the Six-Winged Seraphic Azure Tree, will be in the center, and four of your juniors, as Four-Winged Seraphic Azure Trees, will cover the four corners. This constitutes a natural formation to allow a floating continent to fly even without any propulsion formations. However, we aren’t going to be satisfied with this natural formation, as we’ll have Lest superimpose a spatial-wind formation that replicates Karyot’s Warping Gust Wings."

"Ah!" Mingzhi suddenly cried out.

Lest Mistwalker’s eyes also suddenly brightened, while Fairy Divinacia still looked clueless but intrigued.

Davis smiled as he saw them come to a gradual understanding, "Yes, the Warping Gust Wings is a physique that allows Karyot to warp through space, travel extremely long distances with extreme speed. His wings entwines with winds that bend even spacetime, allowing him to create a vacuum that acts like a spatial bubble which allows him to breeze through spatial layers as he pleases. Although it isn’t as fast as teleportation, he could undoubtedly traverse half of the Upper Realm Space if he could become a Peak Alpha Exalt and still have energy to spare. If he could become an Omega Exalt, damn- I assure you no one could catch up in the Upper Realm Space. Sometimes, I feel envious of those wings-"

"Really!?"

Abruptly, a voice echoed from above as Karyot descended.

He had also been invited, and he had just heard his name and physique come up.

"Yes, brother Karyot," Davis laughed, "All you need to do is let me and Lest borrow your wings for some time, allow us to research it."

"Haha, bye!"

Karyot turned around to instantly flee. How could he allow others to examine and decipher the secrets of his physique?

But Davis was already prepared.

He appeared in front of Karyot and dropped something the latter wanted, "One World Hegemon Grade resource that allows you to enter Omega Exalt Stage after you regress, and we’ll promise to never leak your secrets. Heaven promise, we swear. Ah- wait, no, we’ll form a True Soul Contract...!"

"Noooooo...!"

Karyot cried out, "Help, I’m being stripped!"

"Haha, this fucker..."

Davis had no choice but to come to a stop.

He didn’t know how this shameless person ended up as Saintess Lunaria’s disciple, but it gave him a good laugh.

He let Karyot leave as he returned to the others and sat down, making himself comfortable before he asked, "Did you all understand how it’s possible to slingshot an entire continent across space now and arrive without any turbulence?"

Lest Mistwalker wryly smiled.

The scale of the continent-wide formations was indeed massive.

He was already thinking of doing one continent-wide formation to re-anchor all the veins, then he needed to do another one to form a spatial barrier that protected it from spatial turbulence during movement. The third was the propulsion formation. He was already thinking of superimposing these three formations into one or two for greater synchronization, so when the continent moved using propulsion, all the energy was being diverted to the spatial barrier to defend against the turbulence, and when the continent came to a stop or drifted along with the spatial current, then the veins would become more fertile.

But now, on top of these three continent-wide formations, he would have to do a special five spatial-node continent-wide formation that hosts the Seraphic Azure Trees, allowing them to control the movement of the flying continent with their massive wings! This could be its own defense too, so he might need to replace or strengthen the second and third formation.

And then somehow add the insights to the fourth formation in order to blip across space after he managed to decipher Karyot’s physique and connect it with Stella’s ability to throw mini-realms like rocks hurtling across and landing on the water surface, barely causing a ripple or damage to both the surroundings and the realm.

Lest Mistwalker leaned back and truly thought to himself, ’This is... a mission beyond my ability, but that’s what makes my blood boil with excitement all year round.’

Seeing him go silent for quite some time, Davis added, "Naturally, this will be a long-term project of three to five years, perhaps more, as I’m not sure of the formation construction time, but even if you failed, you would have still learned a lot while losing nearly no wealth. A Peak Exalt Grade Primary Law Treasure of your wish is still promised to you regardless of the result. Not a bad idea, right?"

"..."

Lest Mistwalker listened and still stayed silent, contemplating.

During this time, Karyot already returned, his Warping Gust Wings displaying their power as he warped back as if nothing had happened.

He combed his hair back as he ran his fingers across his head coolly, "It’s been many years. I thought about it and felt that to help a brother protect his family would indeed be one of my life’s greatest achievements. This mission, I’ll accept, and reluctantly take the World Hegemon Grade Treasure. Otherwise, I’m afraid my brother over here will feel angry."

’Shameless!’

Mingzhi and the others cursed under their breath while Davis laughed and personally invited him in.

"Come, come. Sit here. I’ll go over it again after everyone arrives. Oh, and what about you, Fairy Divinacia? This is undoubtedly unfair to your Seraphic Azure Tree Race since rooting in this continent means staying in one place without being able to quickly escape if needed, and when attacks fall, the first to get hit would be your juniors in the corners of the continent. I do not intend to force a single one of you, so please mention if there is something bothering you or if you need more compensation for your race’s growth to equalize the risk."
