Chapter 2222: Old Acquaintances 

Chapter 2222 Old Acquaintances 

The two of them were standing atop a towering cliff, and their light-red robes fluttered along with the wind.

Hu!

All of a sudden, the two of them moved simultaneously. Flitting from one point to another with incredible nimbleness, they traded heavy blows with one another.

Luo Qiqi moved over to Zhang Xuan’s side, and it did not take her too long to notice the two ladies as well. Her eyes lit up in excitement as she exclaimed, “It’s Yu Fei-er and Hu Yaoyao!”

Yu Fei-er had been her closest friend ever since their time on the Master Teacher Continent, but when she left for the Firmament, Luo Qiqi had never expected to see her ever again. She never would have thought that the other party would ascend to the Azure, and on top of that…

Both Yu Fei-er and Hu Yaoyao had become Semi-Divinities!

“Yes, they are sparring with one another,” Du Qingyuan said. “The two of them are very hardworking. They’ve spent practically every single day over the past decade cultivating, and it’s due to their diligence that they’ve been able to grow so much stronger within such a short period!”

There was no cultivator in the world who could rise to the top without working hard.

Even for someone like Zhang Xuan, he had still put a great deal of time and effort into cultivating in order to get to where he currently was.

…

After sparring for a moment, the two red-robed ladies finally concluded the duel and rested by the side of the cliff. Their beautiful faces were marred with a hint of dejection.

“Don’t bother wasting your effort. Without the Aura of Divinity, we won’t be able to overcome our bottleneck and ascend to the Firmament!” someone said.

Following that, a thirty-year-old man leaped to the top of the cliff as well.

Luo Xuanqing!

The current Luo Xuanqing had also reached the Semi-Divinity realm, and he was no weaker than the two ladies.

“I know, but… is there really no way?” Yu Fei-er clenched her fists tightly in indignation.

“That’s why I said that we should just forcefully barge our way through. It might be dangerous, but at least there’s still a sliver of hope. If we just continue waiting here, it’ll really be an eternal farewell!” Luo Xuanqing said.

“Eternal farewell…” Yu Fei-er muttered in desolation.

The gap between the Azure and Firmament was unlike that between the Azure and the Master Teacher Continent, which one could cross with a little bit of effort. Furthermore, even if they successfully reached the Firmament, there was no saying whether they could endure the hundred times increase in spatial pressure.

“I don’t know the cultivation realms in the Firmament, but those who are in that world are all the most talented cultivators and geniuses of the myriad worlds. Despite so, we don’t see any cultivators from the Firmament here, which only goes to show how difficult it is to breach the dimension barrier from the Firmament. No matter how talented my younger sister or Zhang shi are, they will need at least hundreds or even a thousand years to reach that level,” Luo Xuanqing said. “And a hundred years in the Firmament is already equivalent to ten thousand years in the Azure. We will have long passed away by then!”

Even Semi-Divinities were only able to live for a thousand years in the Azure. Any longer than that would really be pushing the limits.

The darned difference in time meant that their paths would never cross ever again. By the time those who had gone up to the Firmament were strong enough to head down to meet them, they would have already turned to ash.

“I understand as much as well,” Yu Fei-er said with a conflicted expression, “but…”

“Why are you hesitating?” Luo Xuanqing exclaimed. “We are in the same position as one another, and you and I both know that it’s impossible to advance any further than Semi-Divinity realm pinnacle. The only choice we have is to forcefully attempt to enter the Firmament. No matter how dangerous it is, we have to give it a try!”

Yu Fei-er was quiet for a long while before nodding slightly. “Let’s do it then…”

“Fei-er, Palace Master Du has told us that we have to reach the level of the gods in order to enter the Firmament, or else we’ll face certain death!” Hu Yaoyao interjected with a frown.

Ever since the three of them reached Semi-Divinity realm pinnacle, their cultivation had simply refused to advance any further. They had tried everything that they could, but soon, they realized that they would not be able to take the final step forward without the Aura of Divinity.

If they could not become gods, they would not be able to enter the Firmament. This was the paradox that chained down all cultivators in the Azure, preventing them from reaching greater heights.

“I missed him once back then. If I can’t even follow him now, I don’t see much point in living any further,” Yu Fei-er muttered with gritted teeth.

If she had chosen the same footsteps as Zhao Ya and the others, she might have been in the Firmament right now. She would not have been left there, working in futility for a possibility that was just so, so far away. Even meeting that fellow once more seemed nothing more than a dream.

“Since you two have made up your minds, I’ll join you. I must say that the horrible fellow has a bizarre charm that really draws people in,” Hu Yaoyao said with a smile.

Back then, Zhang Xuan had been far weaker than her in terms of cultivation. She could still remember how she had tried to tease the young man back then, only to have the tables turned on her.

She had been so infuriated, but thinking about it brought a smile to her lips.

There had never been a deep tie between the two of them, but for some reason, she could remember her every encounter with him extremely clearly. It was as if he was deeply imprinted in her mind, and she simply could not shake free of him no matter what she did.

If it had been in the past, she could not have imagined that she would go so far for someone.

“Since we have come to a decision, let’s choose a day and get to it!”

Seeing how he had finally managed to convince these two, Luo Xuanqing heaved a sigh of relief.

All of a sudden, someone stepped onto the peak of the mountain.

It was none other than Wu Chen.

“Someone asked me to pass this to you,” he said as he threw three jade bottles to them.

“For us?” Luo Xuanqing asked doubtfully as he caught the jade bottle, only to nearly drop it due to its sheer weight.

The jade bottle was far heavier than he had expected!

He was a Semi-Divinity realm pinnacle cultivator, one of the strongest experts of an Azure, and yet, he had nearly failed to catch a bottle…

This was more than enough to show that there was something special about the jade bottle.

With a perplexed look on his face, Luo Xuanqing uncorked the bottle and looked at its contents. Lying quietly within the bottle was a droplet of blood.

“A droplet of blood can actually weigh that much? Wait a moment… is this the blood droplet of a god?” Luo Xuanqing narrowed his eyes in bewilderment.

It would make perfect sense if the droplet of blood within the jade bottle belonged to a god. Infused with great amount of vitality and power, the blood of a god was far heavier than that of ordinary cultivators. This was known within the upper echelons of the Azure.

“The blood droplet contains the Aura of Divinity. We’ll be able to rise to the levels of the gods right after consuming it,” Luo Xuanqing remarked as his body began trembling in agitation.

Yu Fei-er and Hu Yaoyao were also taken aback by this abrupt gift, and they swiftly came to a realization.

Only a god could possibly gift them the droplet of a god, which meant that…

Yu Fei-er immediately turned to Wu Chen and asked anxiously, “This is his blood, isn’t it? Where is he?”

She could sense it. Her intuition was telling her that it was so. The blood droplet within the jade bottle belonged to that man whom she was looking for!

“He has already left,” Wu Chen replied. “He instructed me to relay this message to you. ‘See you in the Firmament’.”

“See you in the Firmament?”

The three of them shuddered.

That meant that he had descended to the Azure from the Firmament.

They had thought that it would be impossible for them to meet each other again after hearing that they had already ascended to the Firmament, but who could have known that their paths would cross like that?

In just ten short years, no, it would only be a single month in the Firmament, they had grown strong enough to breach the dimension barrier and travel back to the Azure.

“Xuanqing, this is a gift that a person told me to relay to you. He also left a message for you,” Wu Chen said as he passed an object over.

Perplexed, Luo Xuanqing took the object from Wu Chen’s hand, and with just a look at it, his body immediately jolted in astonishment. “This is Qiqi’s possession… Where is she?”

The object that he had just been given was nothing more than a cheap, light-blue hairclip. It was a gift that he had prepared for his little sister back when they were younger.

Holding the hairclip tightly, Luo Xuanqing asked anxiously, “What did she say?”

“He said that he has already accomplished what you entrusted to him, and if you wish to see him or your little sister, you should quickly make a breakthrough and head over to the Firmament!” Wu Chen said.

“The Firmament, is it? Hahaha! Very well, let’s meet one another in the Firmament. He seems to have grown a little stronger over the past month, but I’ll catch up to him soon enough. When we finally meet again, I’ll make sure to punch all of the teeth out of his mouth!” Luo Xuanqing burst into hearty laughter as his eyes reddened a little.

“We’ll be meeting each other very soon…”

Yu Fei-er and Hu Yaoyao glanced at one another before lowering their gazes to the jade bottles in their hands. Clutching onto them tightly, the excitement and anticipation on their faces could hardly be concealed.

Just you wait, Zhang Xuan! We are coming right after you!
