Chapter 605: Departure
I only had about half an hour of free time.
Although Gu Heng tried to keep a low profile, people still came up to talk to him.
"Excuse me, sir, may I ask your name?"
The person who came to speak was a woman with an elegant and dashing demeanor. Although she was a woman, Gu Heng's perception of her was indeed somewhat fuzzy at first glance.
His clothes and appearance were very similar to those of a man, especially his strong heroic spirit between his brows. He also had short hair. If he didn't take a few more glances, he would really think that he was a handsome man.
Gu Heng stood up, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "My surname is Gu, and my given name is Heng. May I ask... how should I address you, fellow Daoist?"
"Haha, Brother Gu, you're too kind! My surname is Li, and my name is Li Feiyue."
The woman laughed heartily.
"Brother Gu doesn't seem to be part of a group, so he's probably not from a prestigious family, but rather a lone cultivator?"
"Fellow Daoist Li is right."
Upon hearing this, Li Feiyue felt relieved, as if she had found a kindred spirit.
"Hehe, all these people around us come from sects and aristocratic families. They banded together in the Holy Dragon Cave, which is why they're in groups. We lone cultivators can only do this."
She smiled bitterly.
Gu Heng nodded, indicating his understanding.
He had heard Bai Feier say that this secret realm was actually extremely dangerous and difficult to navigate. If they didn't stick together, they might all die. So, he had no choice but to stick together.
But then again, they could have easily qualified even without forming a alliance...
Isn't that even more powerful?
Although Gu Heng didn't want to boast about his abilities, he really did manage to obtain the qualification ticket to the Lesser Xuantian Realm all by himself. It was perfectly reasonable for others to want to flatter him!
Now it seems.
This fellow Daoist Li Feiyue is the same.
Upon thinking about it this way, Gu Heng immediately felt a deep sense of respect.
This is a powerful figure who, like himself, fights alone but is able to carve out a bloody path out of the Holy Dragon Cave!
That's definitely impressive.
and.
It seems that this fellow Daoist Li has been ostracized by those who stick together. Although he seems very talkative, he seems to lack people to chat with.
"Fellow Daoist Li seems quite excited?" Gu Heng looked at Li Feiyue, who seemed unable to contain her emotions and was very eager.
If she had a flask of wine in her hand right now, she would definitely drink it all up.
"Ah... I'm really curious about what the view is like up there."
Li Feiyue remained silent for a while before putting on a longing expression.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, are you not interested in that new world that's so far away?"
"I'm somewhat interested, but not really. If I'm not comfortable up there, I'll just go home and take a nap."
Gu Heng waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned.
He could be indifferent because of the confidence given by the system. If that place was really different from what he imagined, he could teleport away and escape, but others would probably be in trouble.
"Pfft... Hahaha, Brother Gu has a free and easy spirit, I am ashamed to admit that I am not as good as him!"
Li Feiyue couldn't help but laugh, though her smile was forced.
After chatting for a while, the two became acquainted with each other. Having waited there for quite some time, the atmosphere gradually warmed up as a treasure ship approached from the distant horizon, braving the blazing sun.
"Ah, the envoys who will escort us to the Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm have arrived."
Li Feiyue stared intently at the treasure ship.
Gu Heng felt that she had an unusual obsession and longing for that Little Xuantian Realm, as if she absolutely had to go there.
However, everyone was quite excited.
Looking around, he saw that many young cultivators present seemed to see a path leading to the highest realm, and they were eager to embark on it.
"I heard that if you are talented enough to meet their requirements after going to the Little Mystic Heaven Realm, you can be accepted as a disciple by the immortal forces there!" "Quite a few people have already gone up there. I think they all went for this, otherwise there wouldn't be such rumors."
Li Feiyue whispered to Gu Heng.
“But what about those who already belong to a sect? Are they just going to switch sides like that? Wouldn’t that be considered betraying their sect?” Gu Heng frowned.
It's only natural to switch jobs when you find a better opportunity.
However, a sect is not the same as a company in his previous life. Although he was not in the sect, he understood a little about how it operated. The disciples were mainly involved in personal relationships and favors, so it was difficult for them to leave whenever they wanted. However, it is possible that some people simply did not have this kind of psychological burden.
At least, Gu Heng didn't think Bai Feier could just leave the Myriad Swords Immortal Sect and follow someone else.
Bai Feier and the others should have gone up long ago.
Those disciples of the Myriad Swords Immortal Sect had been staying in the Holy Dragon Cave, and they would definitely have completed the trial earlier than him. Once they went up, Gu Heng felt that he would still be able to see her if given the chance.
"Hard to say."
"Ever since this Little Mystic Heaven Realm came out, the world has been in complete chaos, and those rules are no longer applicable."
"People's hearts are yearning for change."
Li Feiyue shrugged.
The treasure ship is already approaching.
Upon approaching, a cultivator slowly emerged from the treasure ship, his gaze sweeping downwards.
"Those who pass the test may board the ship."
"This ship will take you directly to the Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm. Once there, you will need to undergo the next stage of trials."
"Come up."
The cultivator didn't say much, probably because he had already received several people before, and could now announce things in a formulaic way.
The envoy spoke, and everyone followed and entered the treasure ship.
Immediately afterwards, the treasure ship set sail.
Gu Heng stood on the ship's side, watching the treasure boat rise smoothly into the clouds and then speed off in a certain direction.
He's here in the Lesser Mystic Realm!
That new world, we can finally see what it's like!
