Once Yuan and w.a.n.g Xiuying disappeared from the tenth floor in the Mystic PaG.o.da, the building itself began to glow a bright azure-colored light before shooting a ma.s.sive beam into the sky for everyone in the Mystic Realm to see.

At the Divine Forest, Lan Yingying was floating on top of the water at the waterfall where Yuan impregnated her with a dazed expression on her face when she first noticed the azure-colored pillar of light in the distance that pierced the heavens.

"W-What is that?"

For some reason, Lan Yingying felt an urge to approach that light.

A few moments later, her grandparents could be seen flying in her direction in the sky.

"Grandfather! What is going on?" She asked him.

"I also have no idea, but it seems to be coming from the Mystic PaG.o.da! Something must have happened there! We must see what's happening!" Grandpa Lan said to her in an urgent manner.

Lan Yingying quickly left the water to put on her clothes.

A few moments later, Grandpa Lan transformed into his beast form before carrying the other two into the skies, flying towards the direction of the beam.

Meanwhile, outside the Mystic Realm, the spectators were shocked when they saw this azure-colored beam in the sky.

However, they were not shocked because of the light itself. They were shocked because the pillar of light had somehow managed to penetrate the Mystic Realm and appear in their world, piercing their heavens as well!

"Heavens! What is happening this time?!"

The voices from the crystal b.a.l.l.s were greatly shocked by this phenomenon.

"This is also my first time seeing this… I have no idea what is going on…" Senior Nie shook his head with a nervous frown on his face.

There have been too many unexplainable events happening in the Mystic Realm this year. Just what on earth is happening?

"Wait a second… This feeling I am getting from that pillar of light… It's a transportation formation? It's something similar to when I came down to the Lower Heavens from the Spirit Heavens!" Senior Nie suddenly realized this.

"What does that mean?" One of the voices asked.

"Either somebody is going inside the Mystic Realm through a formation or the other way around— someone is leaving the Mystic Realm!" Senior Nie said.

"That's…"

The spectators were speechless. Who could be doing such a thing? And for what reason?

Sometime later, one of the crystal b.a.l.l.s cried out loud, "Ah! I can also see the pillar of light here!"

"What?!" Senior Nie exclaimed.

Another voice followed, "It's true! I can see it as well! Look outside!"

The people living at Spirit Heavens immediately looked outside their window, and to their surprise, the pillar of light had somehow managed to appear in the Spirit Heavens as well.

"Heavens! Don't tell me this is the same pillar of light from the Mystic Realm?"

"What else could it be?! How did this happen?!"

The people from the Spirit Heavens were greatly bewildered by this unknown pillar of light, especially the people that had no idea about what was happening in the Mystic Realm.

The powerful backgrounds from the Spirit Heavens were also alerted by this pillar of light, and people from all over the world were immediately sent to investigate it.

Meanwhile, after disappearing from the Mystic PaG.o.da, Yuan and w.a.n.g Xiuying found themselves on this small platform that was surrounded by clouds, almost like they were somewhere in the sky.

There was a path made from the same material as the platform in front of them, and at the end of this path was a tall wall that resembled city walls.

"Where are we?" w.a.n.g Xiuying asked while she was still hugging Yuan's body tightly.

Ding!

[You have discovered Ancient Dragon City]

[Fame +1,000]

"Ancient Dragon City…? Were we teleported to this place by that formation? Just what is this place?" Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice.

However, Yuan was quickly snapped out of his daze when he heard a shouting voice resound in his ears.

"Who are you people?! How did you activate the teleport formation?!"

Before Yuan could even react, a dozen people with weapons in their grasp surrounded him and w.a.n.g Xiuying, and they were all emitting the power of a Spirit Grandmaster!

"Y-Yuan…" w.a.n.g Xiuying's grasp on him tightened even more after feeling their unfriendly atmosphere.

"h.e.l.lo, I'm sorry if we're not supposed to be here, but we were brought to this place against our will by accident through a formation… I think." Yuan said to them.

"Impossible! n.o.body has used this teleport formation for hundreds of thousands of years!" One of the figures said.

"What is your purpose for coming here?!" Another one asked.

"I already told you guys— I don't know how we got here. We also don't have any reason to be here, so I'd appreciate it if you tell us how we can go back." Yuan said to them.

The group of people turned to look at each other.

After a moment of silence, one of them said, "That's impossible. We also don't know how to activate that formation."

"What?! We can't go back?! What about the Mystic Realm?!" w.a.n.g Xiuying exclaimed.

"Mystic Realm…? Don't tell me you're from the Lower Heavens…" One of them recognized the Mystic Realm and asked.

"That's right. We came from the Lower Heavens." Yuan confirmed.

After another moment of silence, the one leading them spoke, "Regardless of your situation, we are going to bring you in for further questioning. If you resist, we'll kill you right here."

In their eyes, neither w.a.n.g Xiuying and Yuan were powerful enough to threaten them— especially not w.a.n.g Xiuying, who was a mere Spirit Apprentice, so they lowered their guard a little bit.

"There's nothing we can do now but listen to them, Yuan." w.a.n.g Xiuying said to him.

Yuan nodded, "Okay, we'll cooperate."

Thus, the group of Spirit Grandmasters began escorting Yuan and w.a.n.g Xiuying towards the city walls in the distance.
