Chapter 208: Chapter 142: Furious Celestial Sword Sect, Extremely Unlucky Tribulation Cultivator

This was the cruelty of the Cultivation Realm—forced partings beyond one’s control.

Without sufficient strength, even staying by the side of the people you cared about was a luxury.

As those words faded, the youth vanished into the sea of people in the blink of an eye. No one knew his destination or the direction he had flown. From now on, perhaps only he would know.

Meanwhile, in the boundless void outside the Nanling Realm.

Countless older Cultivators and Elders of the Celestial Sword Sect watched this scene, each of them fuming with uncontrollable rage.

"Damn it! Damn it all! Nanling, Jiang Renfeng, Yan Nantian... the Celestial Sword Sect will be your eternal enemy!

"Find him! Find that little bastard for me!"

As the tide of white-clad figures flew frantically in all directions across Nanling and escaped into the distance, all the powerful experts lying in ambush grew anxious. Their anxiety flared into burning panic the moment almost all the white-clad figures left the Nanling Realm, for they still couldn’t trace the youth’s whereabouts.

It was as if he had vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace right before their eyes.

Fifteen minutes passed.

Half an hour passed.

Soon, two hours went by.

Countless young prodigies of Nanling gradually returned. The powerful experts who had given chase also came back one after another, all shaking their heads in defeat.

In the void.

Seeing this, a white-haired Supreme Elder of the Celestial Sword Sect was consumed by blazing fury. When he realized that all the Elders and disciples had come up empty-handed, he furiously slashed his sword, shattering the void, and gritted his teeth.

"Search! Everyone, go out and search! The Golden Scale Dao has yet to begin. He won’t give up this opportunity, nor will he leave the Eastern Domain. All Cultivators of the Celestial Sword Sect, go find him!

"Even if you have to scour every inch of the Eastern Domain, you must find him for me!"

The youth’s disappearance had undeniably become a massive threat to the Celestial Sword Sect. If they couldn’t find him, even Master Cangchen wouldn’t be able to sleep peacefully. With such terrifying talent and potential, if he were given enough time to grow, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Outside the Nanling Realm at this moment, the older generation and terrifying Cultivators of the Celestial Sword Sect had turned out in full force. They had completely surrounded Nanling just to trap that youth inside.

This way, they wouldn’t even need the people from the Ten Great Daoist Lineages to arrive. The moment the second phase of the Prodigy Hegemony began, the older experts of the Celestial Sword Sect could capture him instantly.

Now, with the second phase of the Prodigy Hegemony about to start and the restrictions on the verge of being gradually lifted, that figure had vanished. How could the Celestial Sword Sect not go mad?

Unfortunately, despite all their calculations, they hadn’t anticipated that Jiang Renfeng and Yan Nantian would pull such a stunt. All the young prodigies of Nanling had mobilized, fleeing in all directions and instantly shattering the blockade.

If you saw a silhouette resembling Jiang Hao, would you chase after them or not? If you didn’t chase them, they might actually be the youth. If you did, the blockade would inevitably be broken.

"Search! Keep searching! All Cultivators of the Celestial Sword Sect, mobilize every force we have and find him!"

BOOM!

A Celestial Sword Sect Supreme Elder’s aura swept wildly in all directions; he wished he could hack everything in sight into a million pieces.

Yet, no matter how furious the people of the Celestial Sword Sect were, Jiang Hao had completely vanished from their sight.

Two hours later.

In a desolate stretch of the void.

Jiang Hao turned back and took a deep look in the direction of Nanling. After standing there for a moment, he turned around and plunged headfirst into this vast world.

Time flew by.

After leaving Nanling, Jiang Hao didn’t dare to linger, fleeing frantically and aimlessly. He fled non-stop for three days and three nights. It wasn’t until late on the third night that he finally dared to make a brief stop and take out the silk pouch Yan Nantian had given him.

Aside from a map of the Eastern Domain, a letter, and three tokens, the pouch contained nothing else.

Jiang Hao opened the letter. Faint traces of a familiar aura instantly wafted from it—it was left by Jiang Renfeng.

"Kid, are you feeling lost? The world is so vast; do you not know where to go?

"It’s fine. Your ancestor will point out three destinations for you. These three places are located in realms that the Celestial Sword Sect’s reach cannot temporarily extend to. As for where you decide to go, it’s entirely up to you. You don’t need to tell anyone. In fact, I don’t even want to know myself.

"However, you must remember that there is always a sky beyond the sky, and there are always people stronger than you. Even the Eastern Domain is broader than you can imagine. You must be cautious in everything you do. When it’s time to keep a low profile, you absolutely must. But when it’s time to be high-profile, don’t hide yourself either, lest you miss out on fortuitous encounters.

"I’m off to act like a mosquito around the Ten Great Daoist Lineages. Even if I can’t deal a crippling blow to them, I’ll annoy those hypocrites to death.

"Kid, we have to part ways so soon after our reunion, missing the chance to bond. But it doesn’t matter. I am your ancestor for a day, and I am your ancestor for a lifetime.

"Also, there are three tokens in the pouch, which correspond to specific factions and figures in the three respective realms.

"Once you arrive, if you encounter any difficulties, you can use the tokens to find these people. They will provide you with assistance.

"These are the connections I’ve accumulated over my lifetime. They are all trustworthy people, but you still need to keep your guard up. Do not use them lightly unless absolutely necessary.

"As for your father, I will search for him on my journey. Cultivate with peace of mind. If you encounter a powerful enemy in the future, don’t panic. Your ancestor is passing down a life-saving technique to you. Please see the back."

Reading this, Jiang Hao immediately flipped the letter over. On the back, several large characters were written.

"If you encounter a powerful enemy you cannot defeat, please use the technique your ancestor has passed down: RUN!"

Staring at that glaring word, Jiang Hao couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
