2509 Planet Shu Tang

"Duan Ling Tian did not obtain the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial?!" Shi Zhong exclaimed in shock when he heard Zhang Yi's words. He was certain in his belief that Duan Ling Tian had obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial. Otherwise, Duan Ling Tian would not be so strong. He muttered to himself after recovering from the shock, "To be this powerful even without the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial… Is he even human?"

Zhang Yi explained, "Duan Ling Tian might not have obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, but he's closely connected to the last person who obtained the inheritance in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone."

"No wonder," Shi Zhong exclaimed, "This would explain it! However, I didn't think that one would be able to pass on the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial to another person." After a pause, his eyes brightened as he said, "Then, this means the person who obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial this time around can also teach it to someone else if he's willing? Didn't you mention he's Duan Ling Tian's friend?"

"Lord Guardian, I advise you from having any thoughts involving that person," Zhang Yi replied, well aware of Shi Zhong's thought, "That person is now with Senior Xuan Yuan Zhi of Yellow Thearch Mansion. Moreover, he has been made a guest elder of the Yellow Thearch Mansion. I assume he'll be returning to the Yellow Thearch Mansion with Senior Xuan Yuan Zhi after leaving the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone."

Shi Zhong said with a sigh, "I can't believe Yellow Thearch Mansion is one step ahead of us." He silently dismissed his plan of convincing the person who obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial to join their sect. Since he was with Yellow Thearch Mansion, the Celestial Masters Sect would not stand a chance.

"Let's return," Shi Zhong said, looking at Zhang Yi meaningfully, "Who would have thought the opening of the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone this time would improve your life so much? From now on, as long as you work diligently, you'll definitely surpass Zhang Yun Teng soon. I can already imagine how wide your master's grin would be when he learns about this."

Zhang Yi chuckled shyly, making him look timid.



Meanwhile, under Tang Xiao Xiao's lead, Duan Ling Tian arrived at a Transportation Formation that was located near the entrance of the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone.

"Is that a Transportation Formation?" Duan Ling Tian was amazed when he saw an enormous and intricate design etched on the vast land. It was his first time seeing such a grand Transportation Formation.

"Yes," Tang Xiao Xiao replied, nodding, "This is known as an Interstellar Transportation Formation. The macro-formation is divided into 81 micro-formations. Come with me."

With Tang Xiao Xiao in the lead, Duan Ling Tian approached one of the micro-formations. It was much smaller than the macro-formation, but it was still big enough to hold about seven to eight people. It was located next to a stone slab with an opening at the top.

"Place a Saint Stone here, and choose the galaxy you want to go to. It'll transport you to the home planet of that galaxy. Look here, this Teleportation Formation is linked to the home planets of nine different galaxies…" Tang Xiao Xiao began to explain as she pointed at the stone slab.

Duan Ling Tian examined it and found recognizable writings engraved at the side of the slab. "Cloudhaze Galaxy, Boulder Galaxy, Pathwest Galaxy…"

A button was located next to a galaxy. The entire contraception seemed very user-friendly.

Tang Xiao Xiao brought out a huge number of Saint Stones and placed them in the opening on the stone slab. "Now, let's bring you to the galaxy where Tang Sect is." After that, she pressed the button that corresponded with the Cloudhaze Galaxy. She explained, "We'll need to pass three transfer points before we arrive in the galaxy where Tang Sect is located…"

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian discovered the huge number of Saint Stones that had been put into the opening had been consumed by an unseen energy the moment Tang Xiao Xiao pressed the button. Shortly after that, the micro-formation that both of them were standing on began to shine brightly

In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian saw the bright light engulfed them before everything turned dark suddenly. In just a short moment, light returned to his eyes. He discovered he was in an unfamiliar place. He was at a different Interstellar Transportation Formation, and both he and Tang Xiao Xiao were standing in the middle of another micro-formation.

They traveled twice again before they finally arrived at the galaxy where Tang Sect was located.

"This is a home planet in this galaxy where Tang Sect is located. It's called Planet Shu Tang!" Tang Xiao Xiao explained.

"Planet Shu Tang, huh?" Duan Ling Tian nodded to himself. He deduced that the one who named this planet was the Grand Master of Tang Sect from earth, his old home. After all, the Tang Sect was also known as the Tang Clan from Shu. He asked, "So, what should I do if I want to go to Planet Yan Huang?" At this moment, this was his greatest wish.

"Since Planet Yan Huang doesn't have any Transportation Formation, the only way to get there is to travel to the galaxy closest to Planet Yan Huang's galaxy. After that, you'll have to cross the stellar province physically to reach the planet," Tang Xiao Xiao replied.

Duan Ling Tian had informed Tang Xiao Xiao why he had decided to come to Yan Huang Realm. He had told her about his wish to go to Planet Yan Huang. This was also the reason why she had brought him here since it would make his trip much more convenient.

"If that's the case, please send me to the galaxy closest to Planet Yan Huang!" Duan Ling Tian said with a hint of excitement. His eyes were bright.

Tang Xiao Xiao shook her head. "I wish things are that easy."

Duan Ling Tian felt his heart skip a beat. He furrowed his brow and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Well, it's easy to send you to Planet Yan Huang's neighboring galaxy, but you'll need to ascertain the location of Planet Yan Huang's galaxy first before hurrying there, right?" Tang Xiao Xiao explained.

"Can't the natives in those planets tell me where to go?" Duan Ling Tian was confused. He thought asking around for directions to Planet Yan Huang or its galaxy would do.

"It's not simple!" Tang Xiao Xiao remarked, shaking her head, "From what I heard, fewer and fewer people care about that planet as time went on. Unless you can find a star chart of the stellar province around Planet Yan Huang's galaxy, it'll be incredibly difficult to locate that galaxy even if you're in its neighboring galaxy."

"A star… chart?" Duan Ling Tian froze. This was the first time he had heard of such a term.

After listening to Tang Xiao Xiao's explanation, Duan Ling Tian discovered the star chart was similar to a map. With it, one would be able to find the places they needed to go

"Do you… do you know how to get the star chart I need?" Duan Ling Tian asked, a hint of desperation could be heard in his voice. He needed a star chart to make his way to Planet Yan Huang. Going to Planet Yan Huang was his main objective of coming here after all.

"Well, currently, the star charts depicting the stellar province around Planet Yan Huang's galaxy is the rarest object in Yan Huang realm…" Tang Xiao Xiao said.

Duan Ling Tian's face fell. It seemed like he would be fighting an uphill battle just to find and obtain the star chart!

"What's with that face?" Tang Xiao Xiao suddenly grinned when she saw the change in Duan Ling Tian's expression. However, since her face was hidden, he did not see her smile. "I said those star charts are extremely rare, but I didn't say I don't know how to find them. You see, my ancestor has a hobby of collecting star charts. Based on my knowledge, he should have the star chart you're looking for."

Duan Ling Tian looked at Tang Xiao Xiao, clearly miffed. "You should've said so earlier!"

"No, you were too impatient," Tang Xiao Xiao said in between chuckles, "C'mon, let's go to Tang Sect. I'll take you to my ancestor. However, you'll have to depend on yourself to obtain the star chart."

Duan Ling Tian asked with a frown, "He's your ancestor! Can't you just ask for it on my behalf?"

"Oh, it's not that simple." Tang Xiao Xiao shook her head. "My ancestor is quite… eccentric. As long as I ask for it, he'll give me anything I want, except for the star charts. He treats them like his treasure.."

"Alright, alright. Just bring me to him first." Based on Tang Xiao Xiao's words, he knew her ancestor had to be a difficult person. However, the old man's eccentricity would not stop him from meeting him. After all, his return to earth now hinged on the old man lending him the star chart.
