The other eight people jumped out of the wormhole.

Then, a massive demonic beast that resembled a deep-sea whale flew toward them. It was a demonic beast in the Spirit Devour Realm, a Cloud Whale. It had a spacious back, and, apart from a strong offensive, it also flew very fast.

On top of the demonic beast was a young man, seated cross-legged at the head of the whale.

“Visitors, you must have arrived from a different region,” the young man on the Cloud Whale said with a smile on his face. “Which city do you wish to visit? I can bring you there, for a fee.”

Although this Cloud Whale isn’t particularly powerful, it’s still in the Spirit Devour Realm, Ye Mo thought. He’s really using such a beast as a bus?

Ye Mo was astonished. But there was a type of sealing artist known as a beast control sealing artist. They specialized in controlling demonic beasts, and perhaps the young man before them was one such sealing artist.

“Who are you?” Nangong Wushang asked.

“I am but an ordinary sealing artist,” the young man said. “My name is Qing Tai, I ferry customers around here to make a living. Even the nearest city is about a thousand miles away from here. Even Transcendence Realm experts would need to fly half a month without rest or sleep to reach it. But, by taking a ride on my Cloud Whale, you could reach the city in half a day.”

“We’re all new here,” Ye Mo said. “We won’t be going onto your Cloud Whale just because you said so.”

“Is that so?” Qing Tai said. “You guys sure are cautious.”

He smiled before taking out a token. The token emanated an odd aura, and it had a diagram of an azure dragon on it. “This is the Azure Dragon Token, a symbol of identity for beast control sealing artists. Anyone with this token is authorized to make a living as a beast control sealing artist. Do you trust me now?”

“Azure Dragon Token? You have an Azure Dragon Token?” Dongfang Hong said with shock. “It’s said that sealing artists with the Azure Dragon Token are all geniuses who have became high leveled sealing artists before 20 years old.

He spoke in a lower voice, so Qing Tai couldn’t here. “In the Zone of Desolation, a genius like him would be a target many organizations will fight wildly to recruit.”

There were nine realms for sealing artists corresponding to the nine realms of cultivation. The realms began from beginner sealing artist, low leveled sealing artist, middle leveled sealing artist, to high leveled sealing artist. This high leveled sealing artist was the equivalent of a Transcendence Realm warrior in strength.

“Ye Mo, you’re too cautious,” Wenren Yixiang said. “Look at this handsome man, he doesn’t look like a bad person at all. In any case, there are so many of us. Do we need to fear a lone person like him?”

Wenren Yixiang smiled seductively at Qing Tai before saying, “Alright. Handsome, we’re heading to the Spirit Seal City. What’s your price?”

“To take all of you to the Spirit Seal City?” Qing Tai asked. “That’d be 100 Transcendence Pills.”

“What? 100 Transcendence Pills? Is this a robbery?”

“Country bumpkins are country bumpkins after all,” Qing Tai said calmly. “Don’t tell me you don’t even have 100 Transcendence Pills. When you arrive at the Spirit Seal City later, just ask any random person the standard fee. My Cloud Whale has a big appetite. At least 80 of the 100 Transcendence Pills will be spent to feed him.”

“Fine, 100 Transcendence Pills it is then,” Nangong Wushang said expressionlessly. “Let’s get on the whale.”

After saying that, they all jumped onto the spacious back of the Cloud Whale and sat down cross-legged. Qing Tai started controlling the Cloud Whale, which took off.

The Cloud Whale was several times faster than even the Golden Goose Soaring Cloud Ship.

“Everyone, where did you come from?” Qing Tai asked. Zone of Chaos? Zone of Lingwu? I can see from your auras that each of you is an extraordinary individual, especially you guys. At such a young age, you’re already Transcendence Realm experts. Are you here for training or a vacation?”

“Just focus on controlling your Cloud Whale,” Ye Mo said gruffly. “Although demonic beasts will fully obey the beast control sealing artist after the sealing artist obtain full control over the beast, the beast’s consciousness has been completely wiped out as well. When encountering sudden changes, these beasts would not be able to respond accordingly. They will only move according to the sealing artist’s commands. We are high up in the air at a remote location. Powerful flying beasts are very common in places like this.”

“Huh?” Qing Tai cried out in astonishment, “You know the sealing arts as well?”

“A bit,” Ye Mo replied expressionlessly.

Ling’er used to teach him about the sealing arts every day. Ye Mo knew a lot of basic information. He could go to the Spirit Seal City and, with the knowledge he had, he could make people believe he was, in fact, a sealing artist expert if he wanted to.

The two continued their idle chatter for a bit before Ye Mo completely lost interest in talking to him. He couldn’t shake off the feeling that something wasn’t right, but he couldn’t figure out what it was that felt wrong.

“Hopefully it’s just a misconception on my part.” Ye Mo sighed and sat down cross-legged in cultivation. He shut his eyes and started contemplating the natural laws of this region, slowly gaining a grasp on the natural laws here.

“Are we heading to the Spirit Seal City right now?” Li Tianqiong asked. He could also feel that something was off.

“That’s right,” Qing Tai said. “We’ll arrive at the Spirit Seal City in less time than it takes for incense to burn.”

Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, a massive clump of darkness came from nowhere and surrounded them. Qing Tai’s expression shifted as he quickly stopped his Cloud Whale and said, “It’s over. We’ve encountered robbers, a very powerful group of robbers at that.”

“Keh, keh.”

They heard sounds of laughter from the distance. Everyone saw a dozen flying demonic beasts appear before them. There was even a Transcendence Realm demonic beast among them, and a man was standing on each of the demonic beasts.

The man in the lead was a young man emanating a devilish aura that was sinister and ruthless. The other men also looked incredibly ferocious.

“Seven Transcendence Realm experts and one Spirit Devour Realm expert,” the lead man said. “Looks like they’re not locals of the Zone of Seals. Look, they even have such a pretty girl among them.”

He looked around while radiating a powerful and oppressive might that caused people to shudder when looking at him. When his gaze landed on Wenren Yixiang, his eyes lit up.

“Everyone, you have to be careful.” Qing Tai’s face fell. “These robbers are infamous around here. They’re known as the Space Plundering Raiders. They specialize in robbing passengers traveling in the air, and their leader is Lue Kong, a high-level beast control sealing artist. His sealing skills have reached the fourth-order eighth tier, and the demonic beast he’s riding is the Blood Ghost Double-Winged Crocodile, a beast in the Transcendence Eight Realm.”

“I reckon you’re one of them too, right?” Ye Mo asked aggressively.

Facing all these people, Ye Mo showed no fear at all. Rather, a faint smile appeared on his face as he started questioning Qing Tai instead.

“What do you mean, friend?” Qing Tai’s face fell as he said, “Since you refuse to trust me, erect your own defenses and ride my Cloud Whale to the Spirit Seal City. I’ll stay behind to stop Lue Kong.”

At his words, the eight of them revealed different expressions. Qing Tai unfurled his energy wings and flew out suddenly, a treacherous and sinister smile on his face. It was the smile of success. He formed a hand seal with his hands before shouting loudly, “Explode!”

Boom!

Right as he said the word, the true energy within the massive Cloud Whale turned chaotic as the Cloud Whale initiated its self explosion process. A berserk force spread from the eight and formed a field of destruction, with the eight instantly submerged within the field of destruction.
