Chapter 654: Chapter 649: Amnesia, Teleportation Array

"Ying..."

The Little White Fox let out a soft cry, sweet and child-like. Her lively, black-gem eyes held a trace of confusion, as if the name Ning Jiang had spoken was completely unfamiliar.

"You don’t remember your own name?" Ning Jiang asked, surprised.

Generally, it was indeed possible to lose one’s memory from grievous injuries, but the chances of that were incredibly slim—perhaps one in ten thousand.

The Little White Fox tilted her head, her fluffy tail swaying from side to side. The confusion in her eyes deepened, as if she were trying hard to recall who Princess Consort Xia Yan was.

"Fine, if you don’t remember, then you don’t remember."

Ning Jiang smiled faintly, unconcerned whether she truly couldn’t recall or was just pretending. "Until you remember your own name, I’ll call you Feifei."

"Chiu, chiu!"

The Little White Fox nodded, her beautiful eyes curving into crescents. She was clearly pleased with the name "Feifei."

Ning Jiang gently rubbed her head with a doting fondness. "Stay with me until your injuries are healed. I’ll take care of you and find a way to help you recover. But before that, I must first go to Qiong Province to meet someone."

The Little White Fox understood his words and nodded obediently.

Ning Jiang teased the Little White Fox he had just named "Feifei" for a little while. Before long, Feifei fell asleep in his arms again, looking quite content.

...

"From here to Qiong Province would take at least three months, even at the Cyan-Scaled Eagle’s top speed. It seems I’ll have to find a Teleportation Array."

The Celestial Domain’s one thousand provinces were immeasurably vast.

The Ninety-nine Provinces occupied by the Human Race alone were over a hundred times the size of the Six Eastern Provinces.

Ning Jiang’s current location was Xun Province, one of the territories of the Great Xia Dynasty, situated on the edge of the Human Race’s Ninety-nine Provinces. Qiong Province, on the other hand, was in the center. Getting there from here meant crossing more than thirty provinces.

At the Cyan-Scaled Eagle’s speed, crossing even a single province would take at least three days.

Flying there would not only take a long time, but he might also run into unexpected trouble.

Fortunately, the Celestial Domain was different from other places; various Teleportation Arrays had been constructed throughout its provinces. If one wanted to go somewhere, they simply needed to use an array.

Using a map purchased from the Qibao Shop, Ning Jiang quickly found the location of Xun Province’s Teleportation Array.

It was located in Ancient Cloud City.

Under Ning Jiang’s guidance, the Cyan-Scaled Eagle flew for three hours. Finally, a prosperous city appeared before them.

Looking down from the sky, one could see wide streets bustling with traffic.

The Teleportation Array was situated in the center of Ancient Cloud City, and Ning Jiang located it quickly.

"Let’s go down."

Receiving his command, the Cyan-Scaled Eagle slowly descended from the sky.

"Which family’s young master is this? What a magnificent eagle."

Ning Jiang’s arrival attracted some attention, mainly because the Cyan-Scaled Eagle he was riding was simply too eye-catching. In a place like the Celestial Domain, many major powers domesticated Demon Beasts as mounts. Therefore, upon seeing Ning Jiang, many people guessed that he came from a powerful faction.

Ning Jiang directly ignored the murmurs of discussion that reached his ears.

Looking around, he saw a massive, expansive stone platform. The platform was forged entirely from snow-white jade. What was astonishing was that this platform stood nearly a hundred zhang high, supported at such a height by a dozen giant stone pillars beneath it!

The stone pillars supported the platform like columns holding up the sky, looking incredibly majestic and spectacular from a distance.

Intricate runes were carved upon the surface of this stone platform, forming what looked like a circular array. Embedded in the ground around this array were purple Crystal Stones, each one emitting exceedingly powerful fluctuations.

These were Celestial Spirit Stones!

Celestial Spirit Stones did not contain ordinary Spiritual Qi, but Magical Power. Only Celestial Martial Realm Kings could use such stones.

Activating a Teleportation Array required an immense amount of Energy, which was why these Celestial Spirit Stones were indispensable.

More than ten powerful experts stood guard around the stone platform. The strongest aura among them had already reached the Supreme Celestial Rank, only a single step away from the Celestial Martial Realm.

A Teleportation Array was a place of critical importance!

Usually, the local major powers controlled Teleportation Arrays because they could be used to earn vast quantities of Spirit Stones. A place like this had to be guarded by strong experts to prevent anyone from causing trouble.

At this moment, a large crowd had gathered around the Teleportation Array, buzzing with incessant chatter.

"What rotten luck. The Teleportation Array is actually broken."

"These Teleportation Arrays are from an era long past. They were all handed down from the Late Ancient Era, which was at least ten thousand years ago. It’s understandable that they might break down."

Teleportation Arrays involved Space Power.

And such power could only be wielded by Saint Martial Realm experts.

Back in the Late Ancient Era, ten thousand years ago, before the Great Thousand Realms underwent their great changes, these Teleportation Arrays were laid down by the Saints of that time.

"I heard the Lin Family is searching everywhere for an Array Master to figure out how to repair this array. I hope they find someone soon."

"Array Masters who understand Teleportation Arrays are few and far between, even in the entire Celestial Domain. Who knows how long the Lin Family will have to waste searching. I heard that when the Teleportation Array in Feng Province broke a few years ago, it took them more than three years to find someone to fix it."

"Forget it. The only option now is to go to the neighboring provinces and use their Teleportation Arrays."

Hearing the surrounding discussion, Ning Jiang couldn’t help but frown.

A broken Teleportation Array—this was a turn of events he hadn’t anticipated. If he went to the neighboring provinces, he would waste several more days.

He was going to Qiong Province this time to see Ye Chenyu.

When they parted at the East Sea, he had made a promise to Ye Chenyu that he would find her the moment he arrived in the Celestial Domain. Now, he had to fulfill that promise.

"Fine. It seems I’ll have to lend a hand."

Ning Jiang didn’t want to waste any more time searching for other Teleportation Arrays.

He walked toward the Lin Family experts guarding the edge of the array. Seeing him approach, one of the guards stepped forward. "I’m sorry, the Teleportation Array is damaged and will not be operating for the time being. Please turn back."

"I know. I can repair the Teleportation Array," Ning Jiang said, getting straight to the point.

"You can repair the Teleportation Array?"

The guard was stunned. He looked at Ning Jiang with suspicion; after all, Ning Jiang was far too young to seem like someone who understood Teleportation Arrays.

"Please wait a moment while I report this." The guard returned to the side of an old man in grey robes and whispered a few words in his ear.

After listening, the grey-robed old man walked over and said, half-believing and half-doubting, "Young man, you say you can repair the Teleportation Array? You’re not joking, are you?"
