251: To the Far East

After Feng Xi left Four Seas Sect, he temporarily settled down in Changgan City.

In the past, Feng Xi always cultivated in seclusion on the Wutong Tree in the Far East, rarely venturing out. Arriving in Changgan City, he felt quite at ease and comfortable; the prosperity and beautiful scenery of the human world were very captivating.

Every day, he would use the Phoenix Lord's golden feather to sense Li Qi's movements. When he discovered Li Qi heading west, he was startled, thinking Li Qi had left without saying goodbye and was preparing to flee.

Feng Xi initially wanted to give chase, but since the agreed-upon time had not yet arrived, and he couldn't be certain that Li Qi was truly fleeing, Feng Xi found it inconvenient to act and could only suppress his impatience and continue to wait in place.

Fortunately, Li Qi returned along the same path a few days later, re-entering Four Seas Sect, and Feng Xi's hanging heart finally settled.

Today, when Li Qi left Four Seas Sect, Feng Xi immediately sensed it. When he discovered Li Qi entering Changgan City, he rushed over without delay.

Looking at Li Qi, who was currently devouring food, and the two sets of chopsticks already prepared, Feng Xi also smiled.

"You're here..."

"Come, sit. I don't know if you'll like the dishes I ordered, but have a few bites first."

Li Qi's arrival indicated his attitude; the other party was willing to go to the Far East with him, and Feng Xi was very happy: "Good, let's eat together."

Feng Xi is from the Phoenix Clan, with golden robes and golden eyes. Such physical characteristics are very distinct and would likely cause quite a stir.

Therefore, Feng Xi disguised his appearance, with black hair and black eyes, appearing at first glance as just an ordinary big man.

On the table were four dishes and one soup, all signature dishes of this restaurant. The taste was acceptable, and the two chatted while eating.

"Brother Feng Xi, you said the Phoenix Lord traveled thousands of miles to find me... What exactly is the matter?"

Li Qi probed the other party, trying to elicit some information from Feng Xi.

Although he knew this journey would be auspicious, it would still be good to learn some information in advance.

But Feng Xi still shook his head and said, "I don't know either... The Phoenix Lord's intentions are not something I can presume to guess."

Seeing that Feng Xi wouldn't speak, Li Qi stopped asking and instead chatted about other unrelated things.

Feng Xi also spoke to Li Qi about the Phoenix Clan, giving Li Qi some understanding of this group.

"Are there many people in the Phoenix Clan?"

"Less than a hundred."

"So few?"

"Mm."

"Alright, let's go. We've already lingered outside for a month."

Li Qi didn't object. After placing a primeval stone on the table, two figures flashed and instantly disappeared from their original spot...

...

The Far East is very distant...

It is in the easternmost part of the Immortal Martial World.

Two figures traveled through the high sky, flying eastward.

The air was rapidly broken open, and layers of Qi currents, like strong winds, blew against the two of them, while Feng Xi looked at Li Qi in surprise.

"Such fast speed!"

Although Li Qi used a secret technique to conceal his true Realm, appearing on the surface to be only at the "Two Realms" level, Li Qi's flying speed... was not something a "Two Realms" person could achieve.

"Seven Realms?"

"Or... Eight Realms?"

Feng Xi was astonished in his heart.

He constantly speculated about Li Qi's true strength. Although a World King Realm in his eyes was not worth mentioning, if it were "Seven Realms" or "Eight Realms"... that would be different.

To be able to open so many worlds already represented extraordinary potential. Such a person, as long as he had even a little time to grow... would surely reach an unimaginable height!

Standing above all living beings!

Li Qi was very mysterious. Feng Xi constantly speculated about Li Qi's affairs, and he was also very puzzled about the true reason for the Phoenix Lord's meeting with Li Qi.

The journey was tedious. Neither of them was talkative, and there was little communication on the way. When they got tired of flying, they would find a place to rest, and then continue their journey.

After about ten days, after a full-speed journey, Li Qi and the other person crossed a vast distance and finally arrived at the Far East.

This was a magical land.

The heavens and earth were filled with a faint golden glow, and even the earth beneath their feet contained rich Yang Qi.

This was the birthplace of the sun, where all evil was repelled, and it was the habitat of Auspicious Beasts.

Just ahead in Li Qi's line of sight, a massive ancient tree stood between heaven and earth, and this was the Wutong Tree, the habitat of the Phoenix Clan.

Li Qi's eyes narrowed. He could feel powerful auras emanating from this massive ancient tree.

"We've arrived. Ahead is the habitat of my Phoenix Clan," Feng Xi also said to Li Qi at the opportune moment.

As the two approached, Li Qi saw golden figures on the canopy of the Wutong Tree. The higher up they were, the stronger the auras emanating from these figures.

Li Qi looked closely and saw that at the bottom of the Wutong Tree were golden giant birds!

Faint flames burned on their feathers, their long tail feathers floated in the air, and their entire bodies exuded a scorching aura. This was the true appearance of the Phoenix.

For the Phoenix Clan, if one could complete a Nirvana, they could shed their bird body and transform into a human form, just like Feng Xi.

Because humans are the spirits of all things, and the human body shape is also the most suitable for cultivation. If one could transform into a human body... the speed of cultivation would greatly increase!

And these Phoenixes who had not yet transformed into human form were the juniors of this clan, still lacking in strength, and they resided at the very bottom of the Wutong Tree.

When Li Qi saw these Phoenixes, they also saw Li Qi, which immediately caused quite a stir.

"Lord Feng Xi is back."

"Why did Lord Feng Xi bring someone back?"

"I don't know, very few people come here."

"They flew to the top of the tree! Could it be Lord Phoenix Lord's intention?"

"I'll go ask later."

Led by Feng Xi, Li Qi arrived at the top of the Wutong Tree, and he also saw a powerful golden figure.

This was a woman in golden robes.

Her golden eyes quietly watched Li Qi's arrival, and the moment Li Qi saw those eyes, he knew the other party's identity... the Phoenix Lord!

"Li Qi... we meet again."
