The Demon King is back, leading adorable kids on an adventure around the world!

After flying along the coastline for a distance, Luo Tian and his group gradually slowed down.

He glanced back at Niannian, then at the disappearing coastline in the distance, signaling everyone to stop.

Niannian caught up from behind, tilting her head to look at him, thinking there was someone else waiting.

Luo Tian spoke more slowly than usual:

"Niannian, take out the Taiyi Sword and release it from its master-recognition state. Mid-grade spiritual weapons are no longer needed in the cultivation world; leave them to your senior sisters."

Niannian looked down at the sword hanging at her waist and reached out to touch the hilt.

She looked up at Luo Tian again, then obediently drew her sword from its sheath.

The sword gleamed silvery-white in the morning light, with a fine shimmering pattern along its edges.

She placed her hand on the sword and closed her eyes briefly.

A moment later, the light patterns on the sword dimmed, as if its essence and spirit had been drained.

Niannian handed the sword to Luo Tian, ​​who took it, weighed it in his palm, and then put it into his storage ring.

He also took the Xuanyuan Sword off his waist.

As the sword was drawn, the golden light flashed briefly in the morning mist before dimming again, and the sun, moon, and star patterns on the sword were fading one by one.

He also broke the bond with the master and put the Xuanyuan Sword into his storage ring.

Then he took out three jade talismans from his storage ring. The jade talismans were pure white and had fine patterns engraved on their edges.

He forced out three drops of Emperor-level essence blood. The blood beads floated above his palm for a moment, then slowly sank into the surface of the jade talisman and were completely absorbed by it.

The three jade talismans simultaneously emitted a dazzling golden light, which lasted for a few breaths before subsiding.

A faint golden line appeared on the surface of the jade talisman, like a thin line embedded inside the jade.

Luo Tian tore open a spatial rift, the edges of which gleamed with dazzling white light.

He placed the Xuanyuan Sword and the Taiyi Sword into the crevice, his voice carrying to the other side:

"Qianxue, Mengmeng, we can't use these two spiritual artifacts anymore. We'll leave them to you as tokens of inheritance for the sect leader and deputy sect leader."

There was no response from the other side of the crack, but he knew they had received it.

He took out the first jade talisman and placed it into the crack as well:

"This jade talisman can summon one of my clones, which can exert the cultivation of an early-stage Earth Immortal, but can only be maintained for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

Do not use this unless it is a crisis concerning the survival of the sect or the nation.

Take care, and I will come back to pick you up after I have settled in over there.

"The outer sect is counting on you. If you encounter any problems you can't solve, go find the Grand Elder of the Three Mountains first."

The crack slowly closed until it disappeared.

When the Xuanyuan Sword and the Taiyi Sword fell into the hands of Ye Qianxue and Li Mengmeng, the two of them stood in front of the Zhantian Sect's mountain gate and were stunned at the same time.

Ye Qianxue caught the scabbard of the Xuanyuan Sword, while Li Mengmeng gripped the hilt of the Taiyi Sword. The two exchanged a glance.

Ye Qianxue looked down at the golden sword blade, while Li Mengmeng glanced at the hilt in her palm. Neither of them spoke.

Luo Tian's voice rang out again:

"Your Majesty, I entrust this jade talisman to you for safekeeping. Consider it the last thing I will do for China before I leave."

The second jade talisman passed through space and landed on the sage's table.

The sage was reviewing documents when a very light breeze blew a page of paper off his desk.

He put down his pen, reached for the jade talisman, and before he could examine it closely, Luo Tian's voice reached his ears:

"It can unleash the true power of an immortal; it is one of my avatars, lasting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."

If China faces a life-or-death crisis, simply crush it.

"If you retire, you can go and visit Ye Qianxue and the others, and settle down there. Their elders also live there in their old age. Take care."

The sage held the jade talisman and slowly ran his fingertips along the patterns on its edge.

He faced the direction from which the sound came and bowed deeply.

The third jade talisman was delivered to True Person Tianxuan, and Luo Tian said the same thing:

"I'm leaving the Battle God Sect to you from now on. I'll come down to pick you up after I've settled things over there."

Master Tianxuan accepted the jade talisman with both hands, asked no further questions, and simply said, "Sect Master, take care."

Luo Tian withdrew his hand, and the crack completely closed, as if it had never existed.

He stood in mid-air, facing the direction of the earth, and remained silent for a moment.

After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, turned to face the crowd, and said, "Let's go."

The next direction was the Western Sea. Luo Tian didn't explain much, only saying that he was going to find the ancient teleportation array that led to the cultivation world.

The group followed his lead, adjusted their course, and flew westward.

After flying for most of the day, a very faint distortion appeared above the sea at the edge of the horizon, as if something was continuously moving in the air.

"arrive."

Luo Tian slowed down and descended slowly. When he landed on the sea, he didn't step on water, but on solid ground covered by an array.

The distortion began to dissipate after they landed, revealing a huge stone platform underneath.

There are broken stone pillars along the edge of the platform, some lying on the ground, and some stuck at an angle in the pile of rubble.

The ground in the center of the platform is engraved with intricate patterns. Some of the patterns have been filled in by wind and sand, but the overall outline can still be seen.

There are no buildings around, only this solitary platform standing above the sea, like a station forgotten at the entrance.

Luo Tian walked around the platform, squatted down, wiped the surface of a few pebbles clean, and examined them.

He stood up and walked to the area with the densest patterns, took out high-grade spirit stones from his storage ring, and embedded them one by one into the grooves left in the ground.

The spirit stone made a slight clicking sound as it was inserted, as if something had been inserted into a position that was originally reserved for it.

When the last one was inlaid, the patterns on the ground began to light up one by one, starting from the area under Luo Tian's feet and spreading outwards until they covered the entire platform.

"Come up here, stand closer."

Luo Tian turned to the crowd and said.

Niannian was the first to jump onto the platform and stand next to him, with Xiaoxiao following behind her.

The others came up one after another, standing a few steps behind Luo Tian, ​​each finding a place to stand.

Qiqi stood next to Niannian, holding the ant box, with Qianqian behind her. Xiaojin and Luo Nannan stood on either side, and the withered tree lord stood at the back.

Luo Tian cast the activation seal, and beams of light rose from the array's core, lighting up along the patterns one by one, enveloping everyone in the light.

Niannian felt a continuous vibration coming from the soles of her feet, followed by a feeling of tilting as she was propelled upwards. The patterns on the ground were almost invisible, and the surroundings were filled with light, leaving her with no sense of direction.

She reached out and grabbed Xiaoxiao's hand, and Xiaoxiao grasped hers in return. Their hands clasped tightly together in the light.

The light lasted for an unknown amount of time. She felt herself being stretched and flattened, with only light flowing in her vision, and then she felt a real impact beneath her feet.

The light dispersed much faster than it had gathered, like a layer of fog suddenly blown away. The moment their vision returned, they were already standing on a barren ground.

Underfoot was yellow sand and gravel, and in the distance stretched a continuous, whitish mountain ridgeline, with no trees between the ridges.

The air was dry, carrying a slight dusty smell, but also an aura of spirituality far richer than that of Earth.

Luo Tian stood at the front, first looking up to sense the concentration of spiritual energy in the air, and then looking down to examine his palms.

The spiritual energy flowed smoothly, but it was indeed suppressed.

He muttered, "Peak Earth Immortal."

He turned to look at Xiao Jin and Luo Nannan, and the two of them checked and nodded.

Niannian stood up from the ground, dusted off her hands, and looked around:

"Is this the cultivation world? It's all sand."

"This is just the edge of the area, let's find a place with people first."

Luo Tian pointed to the southwest, "There's a city over there."

As everyone looked in that direction, a light gray outline did indeed appear on the horizon, floating between the dust and the shadows of the mountains, like a flattened line with a faint halo around its edges.

Niannian squinted at it for a while, then said, "Is that a city?"

"Go and see for yourself."

The group set off again, flying in the direction of that light gray outline.

Luo Tian, ​​Xiao Jin, and Luo Nannan all suppressed their cultivation levels, appearing to have only the aura of the peak of the Integration Realm.

Niannian flew in the middle of the group. The wind carried the smell of sand and dust as it passed by her ears, cleaner than the earth itself.

She looked back and saw that on the horizon, all that remained was a vast desert stretching in all directions.

"The cultivation world? I've finally arrived! Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, we'll definitely meet again..."

Niannian's big eyes shone brightly, revealing a firmness and persistence beyond her years.
