All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes
Chapter 66 - 66 66 Divine Skill Tracking

66: Chapter 66 Divine Skill Tracking 66: Chapter 66 Divine Skill Tracking “Indeed.”

An Jing also agreed with the Sword Spirit’s caution, “One careless step and you could be led astray!”

He sensed the ‘Taibai Forbidden Seed’ within himself and found that it normally did not interact with the external Spirit Qi, it was purely an ‘Inner Cultivation method’.

With Spirit Qi, one could cultivate faster, but without it, one could still practice.

After all, the Sword Spirit was once a Sword Immortal, and there were some things it could instinctively avoid even if it did not consciously think of them, thereby evading a portion of the dangers.

The Taibai Luminous Godly Ban, a Body Refining Technique that could use external objects for cultivation, was exactly the kind that feared Demonic Qi contamination the least.

The superiority of Body Refining Techniques in resisting contamination by external Demonic Qi might also be why Embracing the Void world transitioned from a world of Cultivation to a world of Martial Arts.

“Whether it’s Spirit Qi or Five Metals, they’re resources from another world.”

An Jing shook his head in reflection, “It seems, if one wants to practice Qi Refining Cultivation, they must go to another world.”

Afterward, he leaped down from the tree trunk, prepared to continue on his way.

An Jing’s nature was such that he never dwelled on things he couldn’t solve.

Clearly, the Spirit Qi contamination in Embracing the Void was a world-level Calamity and aberration; if it couldn’t be resolved, it might as well be ignored.

Besides, while the Spirit Qi was contaminated, the natural produce of Embracing the Void was not.

On the contrary, it was extremely abundant!

As he sprinted through the jungle, An Jing casually gathered many seasonal berries.

Although mostly sour and slightly toxic, they were perfect for countering the greasiness of pig meat and toughening his Inner Breath within his organs.

In the other world, aside from the readily available Fanged Pigs, he had hardly seen any edible things in the forest—every bush and grass, even the trees themselves, were black and hard; most leaves were needle-shaped and difficult to eat.

For the second half of the day, An Jing sped through the wild mountains.

It had to be said that the world of Embracing the Void was incredibly vast.

Since starting his journey, An Jing had traveled over two thousand miles.

In his previous life, he would have crossed two or three provinces by now.

Yet in Embracing the Void, he had barely moved from the northwestern mountains to the somewhat populated foothills.

When An Jing emerged from the dense and ancient forest that blotted out the sky, it had changed from evening to the next evening, and he had finished all of his stored dried meat.

However, he didn’t need to worry about food sources, for from the top of these hills, he could faintly see several wisps of smoke rising from the villages along the Northern Border.

“At last, I’ve returned to the fringes of the human world.”

The dim twilight scattered through the mountains and forests, slipping through the gaps in the branches to shine upon the youth’s figure as An Jing looked toward the distant lights with a pensive expression and heaved a long sigh, “After a few more days of travel, I will likely arrive at the cities of the Northern Border.”

“The plan is going much smoother than I imagined, and it seems there’s no one pursuing me; do I still need to go to another world to evade the chase?”

According to An Jing’s original plan, after a day and night of full-speed travel, once the Sword Spirit’s gateway to the other world was fully energized, he would immediately hide there.

In this way, even if someone really followed his tracks, by the time they approached populated areas, they would suspect that he had concealed his identity and was hiding in the villages instead of thinking, ‘This person suddenly disappeared, they must have crossed over to another world!’ which would be beyond belief.

Consequently, no one would wait in one spot but would search the neighboring villages instead.

This was An Jing’s original plan.

But now, let’s not talk about whether someone is tracking me or not; even if there were someone pursuing, An Jing felt they could no longer catch up to him.

——He had run so far, would someone really chase him for such a long time just for him?

The answer is ‘yes’!

“Don’t underestimate your own worth.”

In response to An Jing’s doubt, the Sword Spirit reminded him, “You possess a ‘Strange Mandate’ and are a rare talent in martial arts, even acknowledged as the Eldest Senior by all the Children of Calamity…

You are not some ordinary martial artist of no particular note; you are a prodigy with boundless potential, even recognized by me as a ‘genius’!”

“Setting aside the myriad petty personal relationships, such as whether your companions would use their family connections to find you, just your talent alone means neither the Demon Sect nor Da Chen would ever give up on finding you, and would even resort to using divine magical arts!”

“Two thousand miles may seem long to ordinary folk, but didn’t you yourself cover that distance in just one day?

To cultivators, to those martial artists who possess divine powers related to their Fate Pattern, this is not considered ‘long’ at all.”

“Just like now, I can vaguely see that your body still bears a ‘Life Thread’ and ‘Calamity Qi’.

You are far from a time when you can be considered safe.”

“I have learned my lesson.”

An Jing listened intently to the Sword Spirit’s serious and detailed advice and then humbly acknowledged it.

He had indeed thought too simply…

Yes, two thousand miles might spell safety for an ordinary person, but for a martial artist, it probably didn’t count for much.

Moreover, the pursuer may not need to track him step by step—if there was some Fate Pattern that could calculate his final landing spot, and if they dispatched people from another direction to intercept him, then no matter how far he ran, it would be in vain!

And indeed, the Sword Spirit’s thoughts were not wrong.

Because just as An Jing was preparing to conceal his presence, ready to traverse to another world at any moment, his perception, far sharper than that of an ordinary martial artist, suddenly heard a faint buzzing from the distant sky.

A few moments later, the buzzing grew louder.

Hidden among the trees, An Jing, who was cautiously watching the sky, widened his eyes.

For he saw a ‘ship’ racing from the horizon, floating in mid-air!

A ‘Sky-crossing Flying Shuttle’!

This flying shuttle in the sky was not large, only about fifty to sixty feet long, resembling some kind of flat-bottomed boat with four spiral propellers on either side providing lift and thrust.

He saw no apparent steering mechanism, which must mean it was guided by some kind of art of magic.

Now, this flying shuttle hovered above the woods, and then seven or eight figures jumped straight down from hundreds of meters in the sky.

Their forms floated lightly through the air, dispersing in different directions and landing, kicking up large clouds of dust.

They immediately started searching rapidly.

“The Embracing the Void realm also has flying shuttle airships?

Coming for me?

Is it Da Chen or the Demon Sect?”

An Jing was startled, but he did not shrink back in fear; instead, he frowned and continued to observe carefully, “How exactly did they find me?”

He quickly learned the answer—it was the Demon Sect.

An Jing spotted two familiar figures on the flying shuttle.

By coincidence, these two were the very leaders who had once purchased his life in the Northern Border.

One was the one-eyed horseman, the deputy of the Master of Hanging Fate Manor and the Chief Instructor, Instructor Li.

The other was a Fate Pattern holder.

The White-robed Scholar of yesteryear was still dressed in white, with a light blue tattoo resembling an eye on the back of his head, constantly rotating to survey the surroundings.

He also seemed to be holding some object in his hand.

“It’s him.” The Sword Spirit affirmed, “It’s this man who is using a divine skill to track your location!”
