Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies Chapter 425 Returning to the Red Sea

It was time to leave. These were the words Lin Feilin had told him when he informed her of his intentions. She decided to leave the Mystic Yin Sect, departing with Yan Zaizen, and exploring the world beside him. She had lived in a small world for too long.
While that was one reason, another was that Yan Zaizen and Shin Xuanji would definitely meet. She prayed that they wouldn't descend into a destructive fallout. Even though Yan Zaizen had comforted and assured her that he wouldn't take action based on spontaneous emotions, how could she relax?
Therefore, she would not dare to linger behind.
Yan Zaizen was more than happy to have her come along. Moreover, when he regained his Soul Cultivation, he could correct the inconsistencies in her soul aura, segregating Yao Wuhen from her.
They soon left as a four-man group, if the snow-white puppy was included.
Lin Feilin hadn't wasted the thousands of years that had passed doing absolutely nothing. She had a skyship. It reminded him of his old skyship, but it was a tad bit larger and colored cerulean, like the boundless ocean with the faint shine of sunlight, highlighting its glamorous aura.
With his hand on his chin, one hand behind his back, he put on a dignified expression and said: "Good, good, good ship!" He complimented it constantly, roaming its deck and rooms with eyes of sharp inspection. Lin Feilin followed, her eyes somewhat nervous when she saw Yan Zaizen checking out her core vehicle. For some unknown reason, she wanted everything to be satisfactory, so when Yan Zaizen gave his evaluation, a surge of relief and excitement entered her heart and eyes.
She was particularly cute, causing Yan Zaizen to keep his expression as he turned to her. With three nods, he said: "Good, good, good girl!"
Lin Feilin immediately blushed, becoming shy at Yan Zaizen's piercing gaze and words. As a beauty already, her shy appearance only highlighted her looks and could invoke all sorts of emotions within men.
Yan Zaizen laughed. Teasing Lin Feilin was fun.
After this brief interlude, they departed into the skies. The world became their road as they blazed through the skies with zero impediments. The skyship had capabilities where even True Essence Realm cultivators would find it difficult to catch. Furthermore, the offensive formations were impressive, capable of eradicating Origin Core Realm experts with ease.
At the speed they were traveling, they arrived at their destination in three days.
The capital of Presba, Star Night Royal City!
Numerous years ago, Yan Zaizen had arrived here with Tao and Bai Lufeng and used their teleportation formation to leave the Fallen Stars Continent and arrive at the Xiantu Continent. It was the start of his adventure into the Heavenly Path. It marked a huge shift in his life.
There were also other incidents. When he arrived, he met a guard who decided to frame him for the defiling of the Princess. He had squashed the royal elites in the Asura Phantom Realm, revealing that, if he had actually done the deed, he had no reason to deny it. In fact, he would do it openly.
That was when he comprehended what it meant when people said that might makes right. Even if he had committed the act, they could do nothing but accept that it wasn't him. He had the larger fist, therefore his words carried the truth. This was one of the fundamental basis of the cultivation world.
While he tried to not indulge in that lifestyle, it had always followed him.
Due to this incident, he found his Ancestor's Regalia of the Heavens, harnessing the Imperial Law of Mimicry within. To be honest, even now, he found it to be an incredible coincidence that the person would impersonate him out of all people.
Maybe fate did exist.
Regardless, their arrival this time didn't come with outlandish schemes. They stored the skyship, paid the entrance fee, and entered Star Night Royal City.
Yan Zaizen was briefly taken aback, as he found himself shocked by what he saw. The streets, buildings, lampposts, and even the population within the city were nearly the exact same as before.
Lin Feilin explained, "During the…incident, the Capital Was nearly razed completely to the ground. The Imperial Clan retained its ruling rights and rebuilt everything as it once was. They want to relive their former glory, and so they constantly carry out maintenance." At the end, she scoffed slightly. A twitch at the side of her delicate nose and lips betrayed the disgust she felt towards
Ah.
In that case, its been over a thousand years since then. If so, then it made sense that the buildings seemed both old and newer than the ones he saw before. The buildings he saw in the past weren't present for as long as these have, but the ones now had no cracks or imperfections, as if they were newly built.
Yan Zaizen took a glance and directly ignored everything else. They walked to the teleportation platform. Even this was the same as before. These people were incredibly accurate in their reconstruction.
"What?" Lin Feilin was startled when she realized that, besides the guards that had accepted their payment, no one else even noticed their existence. In fact, the citizens would act as if they didn't even exist. This was a terrifying thing to realize, nearly causing her to smack into someone in disbelief.
However, that person didn't react to her presence. They just moved out of the way, not interacting or looking at her in the slightest. No, they were looking in her direction, but it was as if they were peering through her instead.
"Is this how the 'look at someone as if they were dead' actually looks like?' Lin Feilin started to panic somewhat.
Yan Zaizen immediately had to explain, ridding her of her unease. He was radiating a faint soul to conceal their presence from registering in people's Soul Flames. It was as she had thought, they couldn't actually register them, but they were 'aware' of them. They couldn't remember or place them, and even if they did interact, those people wouldn't remember their interaction.
He had used this little trick to avoid detection and the scouring of elites trying to find him, ridding himself of any troubles. In fact, when Lin Feilin asked what he meant, he pointed towards one of the plaza boards beside the Teleportation Platform.
There he was, his devilishly handsome mug was drawn and posted on the board. Beneath it was an outrageous reward for information and an even greater reward for his capture or death.
Lin Feilin had been cultivating for far too long in seclusion, unaware of this hunt going on for Yan Zaizen. Fortunately, she reacted calmly, especially since Yan Zaizen had effortlessly executed a workaround.
Of course, what she didn't know, was that this aura was only effective against those without a certain degree of soul cultivation. Luckily, Soul Cultivation, specifically the Soul Source Path, was an unpopular path before and now.
They walked onto the platform.
"Let's go!" Yan Zaizen smiled. Lin Feilin was confused. Didn't they need to wait for a certain date to use the platform, otherwise it'll be inactive?
Zoom!
Just as she thought this, the spatial platform activated. Her pretty gaze shifted, noticing a middle-aged man had already executed the procedure to activate the platform. His eyes were listless and unfocused, as if he was being controlled.
Yan Zaizen's smile never faded. The Soul Source Path was centered around excavating the soul's innate potential and then transforming it. It had the ability to interact with other souls as well, influencing them, or even invading others. It wasn't only the Heavenly World Law of Soul that could bewitch others. Yan Zaizen was quite adept at it.
The snow-white puppy jumped out of Old Man Bo's arms and into Lin Feilin. She was shocked as she held it. It revealed its pure black eyes and seemed to be asking for permission to remain, a hint of fear within. It was as if it was scared by the noise and sought proper protection.
Lin Feilin was immediately defeated by its charms as it hugged the snow-white into her bosom. They were encapsulated by spatial energy.
Yan Zaizen turned to see the snow-white puppy snuggling the two mounds of prideful, alluring flesh with a pleased smile. His left eye twitched, a hint of envy in his eyes. Such a smart puppy!
Before he could give up a thumbs-up that originated from his heart, they were shot through the spatial void and left the city, Presba, and the Fallen Stars Continent.
A silver beam of coruscating light penetrated the sky of the Xiantu Continent and violently entered deep into a sea of red sand. The red sand was disintegrated by the beam of light, clearing the area to reveal a white platform radiating faint silver light. This was the spatial platform located in the Dead Soul Desert!
Yan Zaizen immediately gathered his bearings.
His return to the peak and plan to save his original body truly starts here!
