Chapter 841 The Ancient Mirror Departs
Chen Yunhao stayed in Yunhuang Immortal City for half a year before he learned about some things that crossed the two worlds.
It was a large merchant guild that spanned two major immortal domains in the Immortal Realm. It came from the other immortal domain, which was closest to the northern border of Yunhuang, and was called the Southern Domain of Xuhai.
It means that in the Immortal Realm south of the Chaotic Void Sea, there is an Immortal Realm that is no smaller than the northern border of the Cloud Wilderness, but it is more prosperous and has more human cultivators. It is also one of the regions controlled by the human race.
Any cultivator with ambitions who wants to escape the northern border of Yunhuang and pursue a higher realm will first choose to go to the southern region of Xuhai.
Because the northern border of Yunhuang has no rainbow bridges or immortal vines connecting it to other immortal realms, or even any illusory veins.
Therefore, the only way to leave the northern border of Yunhuang is through the merchant guild's immortal ship.
Those large immortal ships are said to be seventh-grade immortal artifacts, capable of withstanding the full force of a Golden Immortal's attack, and naturally, they can also withstand the Chaos Beasts in the Void Sea.
However, that chamber of commerce is a large chamber of commerce belonging to the Southern Region of the Void, and it only comes once every thirty years.
It's not that those chambers of commerce don't want to increase the frequency of exchanges, but even with large immortal ships, it would still take more than ten years to cross the chaotic void sea between the two realms.
Chen Yunhao had already found out that the last time the chamber of commerce left, it had only been three years, so it would be more than ten years before they left again.
Then he wasn't in a hurry. Right now, he would take this opportunity to improve the ancient mirror's strength so that it could be of more help to him.
In addition, he also needs to find a way to accumulate more immortal stones, because it will cost one million immortal stones to buy a spot on the boat.
Even immortals would find this number somewhat overwhelming.
Even with such a high amount, every time the ship sets sail, many people still scramble to sign up, which shows how many immortals want to leave the northern border of Yunhuang.
There's nothing we can do about it. Resources are scarce in the northern part of Yunhuang, and the immortal mountains and caves are all controlled by powerful forces. Even so, the highest cultivation level in the northern part of Yunhuang is only at the late Golden Immortal stage.
Once you leave the northern border of Yunhuang and go to other immortal realms, your cultivation will be limitless. It is said that there are Great Luo Golden Immortals in the southern region of Xuhai.
Chen Yunhao spent several days packing. Time was of the essence, as it was still unknown when Gu Jing would return, so he had to act quickly.
Chen Yunhao took out the map, examined it carefully, chose a direction, and headed straight out of the city.
Heading south-northwest out of the city, taking a straight line is obviously the shortest route, even though it's only a long distance of ten thousand miles, because Chen Yunhao wants to go to a remote place.
The edge of the Chaotic Void Sea isn't entirely deserted; some cultivators and immortals also venture to the continent's borders in search of opportunities.
Because the Chaotic Void Sea is actually a huge treasure trove, as long as you don't go deep into it, there is generally no great danger.
Of course, occasionally some Chaos Beasts will rush to the shore, and if they encounter ordinary cultivators with weak strength, they will only die.
If you encounter a strong one, you can capture a Chaos Beast, which can fetch a good price in Cloud Wasteland Immortal City.
Some lucky ones might even find treasures dropped from the Chaotic Void Sea on the edge of the continent, which they can exchange for a considerable number of immortal stones in the Cloud Sea Immortal City.
Many immortal cultivators would also make appointments to briefly enter the Chaotic Void Sea to hunt Chaotic Beasts. In short, the Chaotic Void Sea near the continent's border was not a peaceful place.
Since Chen Yunhao wanted to send the ancient mirror into the chaotic void sea, he naturally couldn't do it in a crowded place; the more remote the better.
He had looked at the map. If he left the city in the direction of the Chaotic Void Sea and headed south or north, there would be a desolate mountain range right at the edge of the continental shelf.
The area was sparsely populated and thousands of miles away, but Chen Yunhao arrived quickly.
Standing atop a mountain range, gazing into the distance thousands of feet ahead, the sky appears exceptionally deep, like a starry expanse, yet it is not pitch black.
The entire world before us was shrouded in mist, like a sea of clouds.
But those weren't white clouds in the sky; they were all dark gray, not pitch black, but with a faint fluorescent glow emanating from the sea of clouds.
Although it wasn't completely dark, the field of vision wasn't very far, and even divine sense could only penetrate to a distance of about three to five miles.
Standing a thousand feet away, Chen Yunhao always felt that there was danger in the chaotic void sea, and his heart was filled with unease.
This is a unique six-sense divine awareness possessed by immortals, allowing them to sense dangers ahead and in the future.
Chen Yunhao observed the chaotic void sea for a while, looking at this place of natural creation.
Then he released his divine sense and scanned the area within dozens of miles, but found no trace of anyone else.
"Senior, do you think this location is suitable?"
Chen Yunhao's consciousness communicated with the spirit of the artifact.
"It's the same wherever you are, here is fine too. Go back to Cloud Wasteland Immortal City on your own later, you don't need to wait for me here. I will let you know in advance when I am about to return, then you can come over...!"
"Please be careful, senior!"
Chen Yunhao repeatedly warned that the ancient mirror must not be lost, as it was his lifeline.
"Don't worry, I haven't lived enough yet!"
The spirit chuckled, and as soon as it finished speaking, Chen Yunhao felt a barely perceptible flash of light disappear, falling straight into the chaotic void sea.
At that moment, Chen Yunhao felt an emptiness in his heart, as if he had lost something.
He stood atop the mountain peak, gazing at the chaotic void sea, for a full hour before returning to Cloud Wasteland Immortal City.
These days, his vast space filled with mustard seeds has been crammed full again.
This was the only storage space he had left. When the ancient mirror left, it took the floating island and the Qiankun Tree space with it.
His current strength does not allow him to create a space within his own body. If he wanted to create a space, he could only merge the Qiankun Tree space with himself.
But that was a long process. He was no longer a novice in the immortal realm. Even a terrestrial immortal like him still used spatial treasures.
It couldn't be a storage ring or bracelet, but rather a celestial artifact that could be refined within the body.
Of course, Chen Yunhao didn't need it. His Mustard Pearl Space was already quite large, although it couldn't compare to some immortal artifacts, it was enough for his current needs.
Moreover, his confidence stemmed from the ancient mirror, which contained a whole world within it—it could hold anything!
Back in Yunhuang Immortal City, Chen Yunhao continued his cultivation routine, but he dared not go all out to purchase various supplies.
Because he only has low-level resources, even if he clears out the entire Mustard Pearl, he probably won't be able to gather a million immortal stones, so he has to be careful with his resources.
As for earning immortal stones through other means, that is still quite difficult.
Previously, because he had the ancient mirror with him, which allowed him to infinitely replicate resources, his alchemy and weapon crafting skills were not actually that proficient.
At least for now, he can't refine elixirs or magical artifacts, so he can't expect to earn immortal stones through the various arts of cultivation.
