Chapter 1805: Chapter 21: Wind-Calming Stone

Although Daoist Yuanci had never come into contact with the Wind-Driving Staff, he and Wang Ba were mentally connected; as long as the distance was slightly close, they could exchange each other’s insights in a very short time.

Thus, seeing the jade-like stone that Yu Wuheng tossed, the more he looked, the more familiar it seemed.

“I call it the ‘Wind-Calming Stone,’ but it seems you’ve seen this thing before?”

Although Yu Wuheng’s speech was straightforward, his eyes were extremely meticulous and keen, noticing the surprise in Daoist Yuanci’s eyes, he maintained an unperturbed demeanor.

Daoist Yuanci pondered for a moment and then spoke deliberately: “Senior Sister, may I borrow this item for a look?”

Yu Wuheng said casually:

“I’ve already thrown it to you, just look at it yourself, why be so verbose?”

Daoist Yuanci wore a wry smile on his face, thinking it was because of his cautious nature towards men.

At this moment, he remained polite:

“Without Senior Sister’s verbal consent, how dare I be presumptuous.”

Yu Wuheng slightly furrowed her brow and snorted lightly, seemingly disdainful:

“Pedantic.”

However, the jade-like stone gently moved of its own accord, proactively falling into Daoist Yuanci’s hand.

Naturally, this was not because the stone had a spirit to choose its master, but according to Yu Wuheng’s intention.

Seeing this, Daoist Yuanci said no more and carefully held the jade-like stone with a layer of Mana.

Seeing Daoist Yuanci being so tactful, Yu Wuheng’s previously furrowed brow smoothed out quietly.

But Daoist Yuanci soon had a jolt in his heart.

His spirit entered the stone and astonishingly saw two Innate Cloud Bans extremely similar to those within the Wind-Driving Staff!

“Also the Wind Path!”

Daoist Yuanci saw at a glance what these two Innate Cloud Bans represented.

At that instant, he also understood that Yu Wuheng did not deceive him; she indeed relied on this jade stone to migrate through the Wind Disaster Area.

Just like in Little Cang World.

With a quick turn of his mind, his expression slightly condensed as he confirmed with Yu Wuheng again:

“Senior Sister, where did you get this stone?”

Yu Wuheng noticed something unusual but did not hide it and said with a look of reminiscence:

“After coming out of that Boundary Sea Vortex, I encountered a black embryo enveloped by Chaos Origin Substance, much like a living creature. Curiosity got the better of me, so I sliced it open and found this stone…”

“A Realm Embryo?”

Listening to Yu Wuheng’s description, Daoist Yuanci immediately thought of this.

Dao intertwining with Chaos Origin Substance, thereby breeding all kinds of Innate divine objects.

They could range from a large Domain to a Dao Treasure or divine beast.

This information came from Cang Fuzi, and judging from Yu Wuheng’s description, it seemed to be the only possibility.

“Senior Sister indeed is blessed with good fortune.”

Daoist Yuanci sincerely exclaimed as he handed the Wind-Calming Stone back to her.

Amidst the many people in Little Cang World, after traveling such a great distance, apart from some minor achievements at Guantao Realm, there was virtually little gain.

Yet Yu Wuheng, alone, could encounter a Realm Embryo, and one she could use at that; it could only be described as having fortune on her side.

Yu Wuheng did not mind.

Since shortly after her birth, her mother, Li Yuehua, rapidly rose to power and eventually took command of the entire Zhongsheng Continent.

Under such circumstances, as Li Yuehua’s sole daughter, she was naturally perceived as a favored figure, accustomed to the so-called blessings and fates others longed for but couldn’t obtain.

She was merely curious about the ‘Realm Embryo’ mentioned by Daoist Yuanci.

Daoist Yuanci then recounted all he knew, making Yu Wuheng’s eyes light up and her cold, beautiful face gain added luster:

“Before it is activated, no one knows what it holds, only after activation can one find out… this indeed is extremely interesting!”

“Interesting…”

Daoist Yuanci was momentarily speechless.

He only felt constant danger, yet this Senior Sister found it interesting. However, considering her late-stage Integration Dao Domain Realm, even if she encountered the Six-fingered Innate Divine Demon that once forced Little Cang World into the Wind Disaster Area, although she might not be an opponent, she would likely not find it difficult to escape.

Thinking this way, places considered dangerous by them might not be so for her.

Inspired by this thought, he recalled the purpose for which the main body specifically summoned him.

Nevertheless, he did not express his purpose outright but asked curiously:

“Senior Sister, your cultivation is thick, and you should have already achieved Cultivation Ascension, yet it seems from your words you’ve stayed here all along.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Wuheng’s gaze flickered momentarily, appearing to ponder Daoist Yuanci’s intentions behind his words. However, she then slightly turned her head to look towards the perpetually rolling white mist above, her gaze icy:

“This place is a bit strange… I can’t achieve Cultivation Ascension.”

“Cannot ascend?”

Daoist Yuanci’s expression showed surprise.

“It might be because of those white mists, or perhaps this entire area, it’s just not possible.”

Yu Wuheng spoke with a slightly heavy tone:

“All these years I’ve been here, after achieving my cultivation base, I took the opportunity when the wind settled to search for an exit. However, I wandered for a long time, sometimes even flying continuously for a hundred years or two, without finding a way out, and could only return here the way I came.”

“Not a single living soul… or else I wouldn’t have just saved you all.”

Saying this, her tone carried a hint of schadenfreude:

“You all came here, haha, you probably won’t have much of a chance to leave.”

Upon hearing this, Daoist Yuanci’s heart sank.

However, he wouldn’t be so easily defeated by words and instead shook his head, saying:

“As the saying goes, two heads are better than one. With so many people in Little Cang World, working together to devise plans, perhaps there will be a chance to leave… Senior Sister, why not join us?”

“Ha!”
