132: Chapter 132 Taking advantage of the chaos, he quietly departed and went to Tianya City to seek a new path.

The deafening sounds of battle cries and Spell explosions thundered through the night sky over the western side of Zhenbei City.

The entire city trembled slightly under the impact of that violent Yao energy and spiritual power.

It has begun.

Ye Qing stood in his courtyard, looking up at the western horizon where the sky was illuminated as bright as day by firelight and the glow of Spells, feeling the increasingly intense energy fluctuations emanating through the air.

"The full-scale attack has begun. That 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' really is impatient; he couldn't even wait one night."

He muttered to himself, but there was no expression of tension or worry on his face; instead, he looked somewhat relaxed.

He had been waiting for this moment for three days.

Three days ago, he had observed that the Yao Race army had completed its encirclement, making the fall of Zhenbei City only a matter of time, so he had made up his mind to leave. The reason he hadn't left immediately was that he was waiting for the right opportunity—an opportunity that would allow him to leave unnoticed while drawing all attention to the battlefield.

And now, that opportunity had arrived.

Without the slightest hesitation, he turned and returned to the room, putting all of his few packed personal belongings into his Cave Heaven World.

Then, he walked into the courtyard and took one last look at the small courtyard where he had lived for half a month, as well as the direction of the city walls where fire blazed into the sky.

"Zhenbei City... I suppose we shall not meet again. I hope you can hold on."

He said softly, and then, his figure flickered like a ghost, merging into the shadows of the inn, sneaking away in the direction opposite to the battlefield—the east side of Zhenbei City.

At this moment, Zhenbei City had descended into chaos.

Most Cultivators were attracted by the intense fighting on the western wall and were rushing to the west city to provide support. The streets were filled with rushing Cultivators, supply convoys, and shouting messengers.

No one noticed a figure like a ghost moving quickly and silently along the shadows of the eastern city wall.

Ye Qing activated the effects of the "void concealment pill" to the extreme, making his entire person seem to merge with the surrounding darkness, not even a trace of his aura leaking out.

He arrived at a relatively remote corner of the eastern wall with weak defenses, climbed up the wall silently like a gecko, and then flipped over to jump down.

The entire process did not alert any guards.

After exiting Zhenbei City, he immediately lowered his escape light to the lowest altitude, almost skimming the ground, and sped off toward the east.

He did not choose to fly, as that would make him too large a target, making it easy to be discovered by the Yao Race or Human Race patrols.

He chose a more covert method—traveling at low altitude close to the ground.

His figure, moving like a nimble fish between the hills and woodlands under the moonlight, darted quickly and disappeared into the vast night in the blink of an eye.

He traveled eastward without stopping for the entire night.

When the golden sun rose from the horizon again, he was already thousands of miles away from Zhenbei City, having entered a more vast and desolate plain region.

Only then did he slow down, finding a hidden mountain hollow to land his escape light and rest for a while.

"Having flown thousands of miles in one breath, I should be safe. Even if that 'Iron-Winged Eagle King' has heaven-reaching and earth-shattering abilities, it is impossible for him to catch up here so quickly."

He sat cross-legged on a bluestone, regulating his breathing to restore his consumed mana.

At the same time, he probed his Divine Sense into the Cave Heaven World to check its condition.

The Cave Heaven World was still operating slowly and steadily.

The earth was thicker, the sea of stars more brilliant, and the spiritual plants on the Floating Landmass were growing more lush after absorbing the vitality emitted by that mutated ancient tree.

Near the Poison Source Land, the mutated ancient tree had grown significantly taller, and many dark green buds had sprouted on its branches, emitting a strange aura mixed with wood attributes and toxicity.

"At this rate of development, it won't be long before the sapling of this 'ten thousand poison soul-eating wood' takes initial shape. By then, using it to refine a set of 'Green Wood Poison Emperor Needles' should yield quite good power."

He nodded with satisfaction and exited the Cave Heaven World.

He took out the "Detailed Map of the Great Wilderness Region and Surrounding Ten Thousand Miles of Territory" and began to study it carefully.

"My current position should be about five thousand miles east of Zhenbei City. I have already left the range of the Canglang Mountain Range and entered the edge of the 'Sunset Plains'."

"According to the map, as long as I continue heading east, cross the Sunset Plains, and then traverse an area called the 'Hengduan Mountains', I will be able to reach 'Tianya City' on the edge of the Endless Sea."

"This journey is over thirty thousand miles long. Not only must I pass through the Sunset Plains, a focal area of conflict between the Human Race and the Yao Race, but I must also cross the Hengduan Mountains, a dangerous region said to be occupied by powerful Yao Beasts. At my current speed, if I travel with full effort, it will take about half a month."

He calculated the distance and time in his heart and formulated his next action plan.

"Half a month... not too long, not too short. I hope there won't be any more unexpected trouble along the way."

He put away the map, rose again, turned into a barely perceptible streak of escape light, and continued flying eastward.

Three moons of different colors rose slowly once again, casting fantastic brilliance and illuminating his lonely yet determined journey.
