Chapter 295: Chapter 295: Teleportation Sub-array Map
Facing Du Ying, Lin Yun couldn’t even fathom resisting. He wasn’t a match for a Celestial Spirit Realm expert like Tang Chenming, let alone Du Ying. The gap in their power was simply too vast.
"Fine, I agree. But you have to let me see my parents." With no way out, Lin Yun finally gave in to Du Ying. For his parents and friends, Lin Yun could only endure the humiliation to survive.
"I’ll arrange it. Alright, since that’s settled, you may go. Elder Tang will prepare a place for you to stay," Du Ying said.
However, just as Du Ying’s voice fell, Puzhu’s voice rang out from the entrance of the Main Hall. Several Celestial Eagle Valley Elders at the Ninth Layer of Primordial Ocean Realm were blocking his way.
But Puzhu, despite being heavily injured by Du Ying, showed no sign of panic. He walked into the Main Hall step by step. As a Celestial Spirit Realm expert, his innate Life Force was extremely potent. Coupled with the Healing Medicine he had taken, his injuries, though not healed, were now under control.
On his way to the Celestial Eagle Valley’s Main Hall, Puzhu, with his Celestial Spirit Realm cultivation, had already injured more than ten of their Primordial Ocean Realm Elders.
Although Celestial Eagle Valley had its own Main Seat Elders, even among the Six Great Forces, the number of Celestial Spirit Realm experts was small—only twenty or thirty in total. Naturally, people of their status wouldn’t be assigned to guard duty.
"Puzhu, how dare you barge into the Main Hall of my Celestial Eagle Valley! Utterly audacious!" Before Du Ying could even speak, Tang Chenming roared in anger.
Ignoring Tang Chenming’s shout, Puzhu slowly walked into the hall, surrounded by more than ten Primordial Ocean Realm Elders. As Puzhu drew near Tang Chenming and Lin Yun, several of Celestial Eagle Valley’s Main Seat Elders also appeared in the Main Hall.
Several Celestial Spirit Realm experts, more than a dozen Primordial Ocean Realm experts, and Du Ying—a figure whose power surpassed the Celestial Spirit Realm—Puzhu had, by all accounts, walked into a death trap.
Strangely, however, despite being surrounded, Puzhu showed no hint of panic. His eyes were fixed on Lin Yun as he asked softly.
"Lin Yun, let me ask you: where did you learn the Flawless Flesh Body?"
Hearing Puzhu’s question, Lin Yun didn’t hide anything. It was no longer a secret that he had entered the Thunder God Hall, so he told Puzhu right away.
After hearing Lin Yun’s answer, Puzhu nodded slightly. "I see. That was a long time ago... Good. In that case, Lin Yun, are you willing to join my Flawless Palace?"
Puzhu’s question left Lin Yun stunned. ’Is this guy alright? He’s completely surrounded by people from Celestial Eagle Valley. With several Celestial Spirit Realm experts here, Puzhu is doomed to die even without Du Ying making a move.’
The Main Seat Elders of Celestial Eagle Valley shared Lin Yun’s thoughts, all wondering if Puzhu had gone mad. In a situation like this, he was still thinking about recruiting Lin Yun into Flawless Palace?
"I have to save my parents." Though stunned, Lin Yun voiced his concern. He didn’t believe Puzhu could defeat the people of Celestial Eagle Valley; there wasn’t a sliver of hope.
Lin Yun had a favorable impression of Flawless Palace and Puzhu. After he spoke, Lin Yun looked at Du Ying, who had been silent all this time, and said, "I agree to join Celestial Eagle Valley. Let my parents and Elder Pu go."
"You are in no position to bargain. I could have crushed you like an ant. The only reason you’re alive is because of your talent. Don’t mistake your place," Du Ying said indifferently.
As one of the rulers of the Eastern Domain, in Du Ying’s eyes, both Lin Yun and Puzhu deserved to die today—especially Puzhu, who had dared to storm the Main Hall of Celestial Eagle Valley.
Finished with Lin Yun, Du Ying ignored him and turned directly to Puzhu. "Your Flawless Palace grows more audacious by the day. A mere Main Seat Elder dares to barge into the Main Hall of my Celestial Eagle Valley? Today, you will remain in Celestial Eagle Valley forever."
Du Ying’s words carried no threat; he spoke as if stating a simple fact. As he finished, the Celestial Eagle Valley Main Seat Elders surrounding Puzhu prepared to attack.
Facing several Main Seat Elders, Puzhu stood no chance of winning. But to everyone’s surprise, he suddenly burst into laughter.
"HAHA! Today, I, Puzhu, have truly witnessed the hypocrisy of your Celestial Eagle Valley—threatening a young man at the Qi Sea Realm with his parents’ lives."
As he laughed, the Space Ring on Puzhu’s hand flashed. A palm-sized array diagram instantly appeared in his grasp.
It was a circular object, made of an unknown material and covered in densely-packed arrays. Among those present, Du Ying and the Main Seat Elders knew exactly what it was.
A Teleportation Sub-array Map. The object in Puzhu’s hand was a Teleportation Sub-array Map. To put it simply, it was a sub-array of a Teleportation Array. Its advantage was its small size, allowing it to be carried on one’s person. Once activated, it could instantly construct a Teleportation Array linked to a main array.
It could be used to teleport back to the main array, or to allow people from the main array’s location to teleport to it.
Of course, due to its small size, each Teleportation Sub-array Map could only be used once, and only for a single person to teleport each time.
Even so, the cost of producing a Teleportation Sub-array Map was astronomical. In the entire Eastern Domain, only the Six Great Forces possessed them.
"A Teleportation Sub-array Map..." Muttering under his breath, Tang Chenming quickly moved to block Lin Yun behind him, afraid that Puzhu would throw the boy into the Teleportation Array.
Gazing at the Teleportation Sub-array Map in Puzhu’s hand, Du Ying’s expression darkened. "Do you think a single Teleportation Sub-array Map will do you any good? Puzhu, do not test my patience. My Celestial Eagle Valley is not afraid of your Flawless Palace."
This whole affair today was because of Lin Yun. As one of the masters of the Eastern Domain, how long had it been since Du Ying was defied by someone at the Celestial Spirit Realm?
Yet today, this insignificant Puzhu had dared to force his way into the Main Hall of Celestial Eagle Valley, showing him utter disrespect, and even publicly denouncing Celestial Eagle Valley as despicable. This had ignited a murderous intent in Du Ying’s heart. If not for his desire to avoid escalating the situation, Puzhu would already be dead.
Killing a Main Seat Elder would undoubtedly cause friction between the two great powers, and a single misstep could lead to all-out war. This was Du Ying’s sole reservation.
But Puzhu repeatedly failed to know his place, and now he had even produced a Teleportation Sub-array Map. Du Ying’s patience was reaching its limit. Given his status, when had anyone ever dared to provoke his authority?
But just as Du Ying’s voice fell, Puzhu activated the array on the Teleportation Sub-array Map. As for where the corresponding main array was located, it was obvious without even thinking: at Flawless Palace, of course.
The pattern on the Sub-array Map was activated, instantly forming a three-meter-wide glowing circle on the ground in front of Puzhu. A dazzling light shot out from within the Array Map.
The Teleportation Array activated, and an equally authoritative voice emanated from it. "Du Ying, the despicable nature of your Celestial Eagle Valley is well-known. What, you have the guts to do it, but not the guts to admit it?"
The authoritative voice was tinged with faint mockery. Upon hearing these words, however, Du Ying’s expression changed slightly.
