Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

From the Dan Dao Sect to Nantian Ghost Kingdom, according to the speed of Xu Fengsheng’s flying magical treasure, it should take at least five days. However, Xu Fengsheng is worried about his disciples, so he keeps accelerating along the way.

A flying magical treasure consumes spiritual energy even for a meter, and the faster it flies, the greater the consumption. Thus, most people travel at a more leisurely pace to save spirit stones, even if it’s slower.

But now Xu Fengsheng only seeks speed, not saving, and he even uses top-grade spirit stones in the flying magical treasure to ensure it is fast enough.

This tireless rush to shorten the five-day journey forced it down to just two days to reach the destination. Fortunately, everyone is in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, even Ruoyang is in the Out-of-Body Stage, so this speed doesn’t cause any discomfort.

The flying ship hovers over Nantian Ghost Kingdom, and looking down, it’s the location of the Nantian Ghost Kingdom, entirely enveloped in dark mist, vast and boundless.

This was once a huge mortal kingdom, prosperous with nations coming to pay homage, but now it’s become a Ghost Realm, with no grass growing and no life.

Only the resentful souls of evil ghosts unwilling to rest roam within, wailing day and night, continually spawning heaps of ghost demons.

The entire Nantian Ghost Kingdom is surrounded by a huge barrier, with the only entrance guarded by cultivators from the Hundred Ghosts Alliance.

Though there is no Yin Miasma around Nantian Ghost Kingdom, the spiritual energy is sparse, and Yin Qi is dense, making it entirely unsuitable for cultivators to practice.

The disciples from the Hundred Ghosts Alliance are ghost cultivators who can practice with Yin Qi, hence the guardianship of Nantian Ghost Kingdom has always been the responsibility of the Hundred Ghosts Alliance.

No checks are needed to enter Nantian Ghost Kingdom; the guarding cultivators only check those coming out to ensure they’re not possessed by ghost demons or evil ghosts escaping.

Nie Shuangshuang and her companions clearly are Great Cultivators, so the guarding cultivators didn’t even dare to glance at them, not because Great Cultivators are particularly ruthless, but a natural reaction under the suppression of power.

Once inside the barrier, it felt as if they’ve entered a realm of eternal night, where everything around turns dark, making it accurate to say one cannot see their own hand.

All they heard at the ear were piercing, eerie ghostly wails, the sound drilling into the brain, causing Nie Shuangshuang to frown, and the oppressive force of a Tribulation Crossing Cultivator instantly spread out.

At the same time, Yun Jue, Beichen Ran, and Gong Ziyun spread their Tribulation Crossing Stage pressure, causing the annoying ghostly wails to instantly disappear, bringing peace to their ears.

The eyes of Tribulation Crossing Cultivators have night vision ability, yet in this Nantian Ghost Kingdom, it still feels like a mortal can’t see a thing.

Even Ruoyang, a Shadow Cat with innate night vision ability, feels the vision is poor here, poking its little head out of Nie Shuangshuang’s embrace looking around.

”Ruoyang doesn’t like it here, meow, it’s pitch black and uncomfortable, meow.” Nie Shuangshuang pats Ruoyang’s head soothing it, while channeling spiritual power to her eyes, instantly seeing the surroundings clearly.

Their current location should be on the borders of Nantian Ghost Kingdom, as it is quite open around with faint shadows appearing to be a city ahead.

Besides darkness, Nantian Ghost Kingdom is also terribly cold, and it’s not the normal chill of weather but a cold that pierces into one’s body, omnipresent.

Staying a little longer, one can feel, apart from coldness and darkness, there’s a breath-stifling suffocation, a feeling caused by the omnipresent Yin Miasma in Nantian Ghost Kingdom.

Once entering Nantian Ghost Kingdom, Xu Fengsheng took out five Qiankun Bags, distributing them to Nie Shuangshuang, Yun Jue, Beichen Ran, Gong Ziyun, and Ruoyang, ensuring everyone has a share.

”Inside are spirit stones I’ve prepared for absorbing spiritual energy. If they’re used up, don’t hesitate to speak up, I’ll replenish them.”

Xu Fengsheng’s words were pure courtesy, each Qiankun Bag holds a full two hundred pieces of top-grade spirit stones.

A single top-grade spirit stone is sufficient to supply a Tribulation Crossing Cultivator for one month’s spiritual energy, even under constant consumption.

Xu Fengsheng spared nothing to find his beloved disciple, offering spirit stones that certainly won’t be depleted, and he won’t take back any remaining stones.

Just entering the fringe of Nantian Ghost Kingdom, before starting the search, Xu Fengsheng offered such great benefits, clearly hoping everyone would put in their best effort and not slack off.

Nie Shuangshuang placed the top-grade spirit stones from two Qiankun Bags into Ruoyang’s Heaven and Earth Ring on its paw, having a mountain of top-grade spirit stones in her possession, never wanting for them.

Ruoyang squinted its violet eyes, joyfully nuzzling Nie Shuangshuang’s palm, hugging a top-grade spirit stone to absorb the spiritual energy within.

Due to the deliberate pressure exerted by the Tribulation Crossing Stage earlier, surrounding evil ghosts and ghost demons sensing their cultivation have retreated, keeping the surroundings peaceful for a while.

Nie Shuangshuang released her Divine Sense to scan the surroundings, only to feel as if diving into viscous water, heavy and sluggish.

Beichen Ran, after releasing Divine Sense, also frowned, holding Gong Ziyun’s hand: ”Here, the obstruction to a cultivator’s Divine Sense seems stronger than when we visited before.

Yun, be cautious, don’t extend your Divine Sense too far. I’m concerned there are high-level ghost demons capable of attacking a cultivator’s Divine Sense. I’ll take care of the inspection; my Divine Sense is robust.”

Gong Ziyun tightened her hold on Beichen Ran’s hand: ”Don’t worry Ran, I’m not a weak girl unable to defend myself, I’ll keep myself safe, and Ran should be careful too.”

Yun Jue hugged the treasure sword and sidled up to Xu Fengsheng, adopting a protective stance.

Though Xu Fengsheng is a Tribulation Crossing cultivator, his combat ability is even weaker than those in the Out-of-Body Stage.

Even though this is just Nantian Ghost Kingdom’s entrance, where strong ghost demons and evil ghosts shouldn’t be present, being cautious is better than regretting it later, as Yun Jue felt.

Among them, Ruoyang has the weakest cultivation, with its Divine Sense being the most heavily suppressed, a feeling making Ruoyang very unhappy, pressing its head into Nie Shuangshuang’s palm, nudging and acting spoiled.

Nie Shuangshuang smooths its fur with one hand while taking out two pieces of dried fish from space with the other, placing them on her palm to feed it. Smelling the fish, Ruoyang promptly retracts its Divine Sense, obediently nestling in Nie Shuangshuang’s palm to eat.

This dried fish was custom-made by Ten Thousand Flavors Inn specifically for Ruoyang’s taste, for which Nie Shuangshuang paid thrice the price to rush it out, exquisite in flavor.

Coaxing Ruoyang with food, Nie Shuangshuang carries Ruoyang and begins using Divine Sense to scan around for traces of Guo Mingxin while slowly moving forward.
