Void Corridors Appearing In The World

* Swoosh! *

"Hehehehe~!"

A small figure flew into the air at a very fast speed. Charming childish laughter spread across the sky, leaving a trail where the figure passed by.

"Zu'er! Be careful!"

Xuan Li appeared and called out to Lang Qingzu with a hint of worry as she watched the fluttering pirouettes and movements this little girl was doing in the air on her flying sword. She was also flying on her own flying sword, but more calmly and following Lang Qingzu.

"Ah? But big brother said it was fine! Then it's fine!" Lang Qingzu paused and tilted her head to the side, her index finger touching her small chin before smiling broadly.

"Zu'er! Have more respect for the Ancestor!" Xuan Li hastily scolded before shooting a quick sidelong glance at the person flying beside her as well.

"It's okay, don't worry."

Ling Tian smiled in amusement and waved his hand so that Xuan Li wouldn't worry. He was watching Lang Qingzu happily flying on her flying sword after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Estate. Although one could fly with a flying sword starting from the Fourth Stage of Chi Gathering, the energy consumption would be less the further one advanced and the speed and control when flying would increase by several layers, being able to fly much longer. Therefore, it was normal for Lang Qingzu to be so happy at this moment, especially since she had finally broken through to the Foundation Establishment.

"I'm sorry, Ancestor..." Xuan Li whispered, still feeling a sense of guilt upon seeing Lang Qingzu's behavior. She knew about the importance of Ling Tian's presence and identity, so she didn't dare to have the slightest disrespect towards him.

Ling Tian reached out and rubbed Xuan Li's small head with a smile. He was also on a flying sword, accompanying both girls.

"I told you before, I am not that kind of grumpy old man or angry with his descendants or juniors. I am young just like you, well though in appearance..." Ling Tian said this last with a slight whisper, smiling wryly in his heart. His appearance is very young, like around 20 to 25 years old, but his mental age was clearly thousands of years old, actually being a very old ancestor of these girls if they were really family.

"Umn..." Xuan Li nodded with a faint smile as she felt Ling Tian's hand on her head, closing her eyes placidly. The slight struggle and resistance in her heart about showing respect at all times and complying with her senior's words were fading away, leaving only a feeling of peace and warmth, feeling a bond almost like that of a very loving and trustworthy parent or older brother in Ling Tian.

"Besides, you are already about to break through and form your golden core, soon you will be able to fly without a flying sword." Ling Tian withdrew his hand and smiled.

Xuan Li is already Half Step to the Golden Core State!

Lang Qingzu had completely built her foundations, becoming an official cultivator of the Foundation Establishment state, while Xuan Li advanced from the Middle Stage of the Foundation Establishment State to reach the Half-Step Golden Core level.

The place where the divine garden was still contained enough aura, enough to support the advancement of these two girls and even manage to consolidate their newly advanced cultivations. Ling Tian helped gather the aura easily, causing both of them to make a breakthrough in their cultivation without any secondary problems.

"Yes, ancestor!" Xuan Li nodded with a smile. Although her stiff and formal demeanor disappeared, she still addressed Ling Tian as her Supreme Ancestor and her tone was still respectful although more informal and cheerful.

Lang Qingzu continued to fly in the sky, laughing happily as she circled and returned several times before Ling Tian and Xuan Li. Happiness was described very clearly in her expression.

Ling Tian smiled, remembering Qing Sha and Lan Yin. What would those two girls be doing? Knowing their personalities, they were most likely missing him, especially wanting to be stuck with him all the time...

"Big brother! Big sister! There's that ugly storm again!"

Suddenly, Lang Qingzu had stopped in mid-air and pointed off into the distance. Her happy expression changed to a frightened one, instantly trembling as her face gradually paled.

Ling Tian and Xuan Li flew towards her and looked into the distance. What looked like a dark and terrifying area like a whirlpool was several tens of meters away nearby.

"A Void Corridor..." Ling Tian frowned as he found a somewhat unstable Void Corridor apparently.

"Void Corridor? Ancestor, do you know what that is?" Xuan Li turned to look at Ling Tian and asked somewhat nervously. Her face was also tense and terrified when she saw this.

Lang Qingzu also turned to look at Ling Tian when she heard him say what it was.

"That black, chaotic and strange storm that you girls were caught in is a void corridor, a chaotic area of the same space that can teleport those who enter to different places in the world, even appearing in other states of the continent..." Ling Tian explained in a nutshell what the void corridor was to both girls.

Ling Tian had previously conversed with Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu about how it was that they had come in such a short time to the south state from the north state, especially because of their cultivation bases, so both girls explained that they had been trapped in a strange area before, almost dying inside it before being expelled and appearing in a different valley.

And through that place the elders of the Zue family would pass by, trapping them when they made sure they were helpless and had no real support, taking away their things and turning them into slaves who would carry their things and tend to their personal things, from washing and making food to becoming cannon fodder and shields in the face of strange and unfamiliar situations.

Listening to their explanations, Ling Tian knew that both girls must have been trapped in a void corridor. This event is the only way they could appear in the south state in such a short time. A trip from the north state to the south state with ordinary cultivators would take several centuries to travel, and mucho more with very low level cultivators.

And now it seemed that they had found another void corridor, causing fear and terror to both girls as they remembered almost dying because of it.

"That void corridor is very unstable. Even a Great Ascension state powerhouse would be seriously injured..." Ling Tian released his spirit sense and observed the void corridor. The laws and principles of space around the void corridor were completely unstable, causing a lot of turbulence and even expelling auras of the destructive force of the void.

Lang Qingzu and Xuan Li's expressions paled even more upon hearing Ling Tian, feeling terror in their hearts. They could not help but move much closer to Ling Tian, almost clinging to him. If a powerful Great Ascension state expert could be injured, they with low cultivation levels would die in less than a second if they were caught again.

It seemed that the void corridor that had trapped them earlier was very stable as Ling Tian had told them. They could even feel how terrifying the void corridor was in front of them, feeling chills and horror. And although they had increased their cultivation bases, the trauma they had was still profound.

"Come on. We still have a lot to explore and return to the sect."

Ling Tian's spirit sense scanned the place one last time, calculating that this void corridor would close soon. It wasn't strange for void corridors to appear in some places, even more so after all the changes happening in the world due to the destruction of the formation.

"Enm!"

"I already want to see my Master!"

Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu nodded happily once they heard Ling Tian's words. Both girls had learned that their Master had also returned and were once again taking back control of the sect, so they would have their home once again. Happiness and nostalgia couldn't help but surge to the face, wanting to return to the sect!

Ling Tian smiled softly before leading the way, his spirit sense scanning all the surroundings for hundreds of miles easily, while Xuan Li followed closely beside him and Lang Qingzu kept flying around them, laughing and even humming happily before coming up a few times and taking Ling Tian's hand, clinging to him like a very childish little girl.

Xuan Li saw Lang Qingzu's action before blushing slightly and after thinking several times, she shyly reached out her hand, taking part of Ling Tian's clothes.

Ling Tian laughed inwardly at the sight of both girls' behavior, shaking his head slightly.

However, he did not reject their actions and on the contrary took Lang Qingzu's small hand more firmly, while with his other hand he patted Xuan Li's head, resting his hand on her shoulder and holding her gently, carrying them as he even made his flying sword bigger for them to climb on.

In the end, the three of them flew quickly but smoothly on the flying sword, admiring the scenery with big smiles.

Suddenly, Ling Tian's spirit sense found several cultivators, surrounding and facing what appeared to be a strange beast exuding a dark black aura.
