Chapter 832: Head for the Secluded Springs!

“Xia Fei, I’m afraid that we must make a trip to the Demon Race territory as soon as possible,” Oro said grimly.

Xia Fei was taken aback, and so he asked, “A trip to Demon Race territory? Why?”

Oro very mysteriously replied, “It’s easy to understand what Fig and the Hall Of Valor mean, as they are just obviously there, but the name ‘Ark’ got me thinking about a legend I heard a very long time ago. Because of how long it’s been, I already forgot the general details about it. That’s why I want us to head to a place and investigate the matter personally.”

Xia Fei lit a cigarette and took a drag.

Given how mysterious the existence of the Cosmic Gate was, as if it were shrouded in a thick fog, Xia Fei felt that it was hardly just a simple gate; it was even highly probable that the symbolic meaning behind it was presently undecipherable. Otherwise, the Black and White Gods would not have wasted their breath in asking Xia Fei to take a good look at the true face of the Law Realm.

“Okay, let’s head to the place you want to go right away,” Xia Fei said.

The demon lord nodded. “I want to try and recall some details first. I’ll inform you once I’ve sorted things out clearly.”

…

Xia Fei returned to the Wind Garden. He did not mention the matter regarding Wu Yuming to Xia Wuye.

The Skywing Clan not having enough manpower was just one of its downsides. Wuye and the information department subordinate to him failed to uncover the true cultivation of Wu Yuming not because they were unconscientious with their work, but due to the urgency of the situation and Wu Yuming keeping his true strength deeply hidden.

Xia Wuye looked like he had been strolling about the courtyard every day when, actually, he was just extremely busy. There were plenty of things that the old man had to decide, and given his loyalty to the clan, he would definitely blame himself if he learned he had made any mistake with his work, so Xia Fei decided not to say a word regarding Wu Yuming in order to avoid such a situation.

He concocted a couple of medicine back in his room and applied it all over his body so as to recover from the burns he received from the Rending Yang Fire. It was all thanks to the defensive capabilities of the war armor, Monohorn Ogre, that Xia Fei had managed to avoid being burned too badly. As such, he only needed three days at most to recover.

After that was done, Xia Fei resumed his training to be an artificer. Xia Fei benefited greatly from Laoshi’s teachings, and so he made remarkable progress in the field.

Xia Laoshi was quite speechless after seeing Xia Fei’s performance. Legends existed about people who could learn anything they put their mind to, and Xia Fei was precisely one such person.

In just a week’s time, Xia Fei had actually reached the precipice of level 4 in the Law of Artificing!

This was a completely shocking improvement!

Once he crossed this threshold, Xia Fei would become a master of dual professions just like Xia Laoshi!

It was unfortunate that Xia Fei had no way of deciphering the profound and complex Thousand Shapes Painting; Xia Fei was truly disappointed over this.

Deep at night.

Xia Fei was working hard in the training room when Oro, who had not spoken for some time, suddenly told Xia Fei, “It’s about time. Get ready. We’ll be heading to the Demon Race territory early tomorrow morning.”

Slightly surprised, Xia Fei ended his training.

“Where to?” he asked.

“The Ark that Hua Hei and Hua Bai mentioned, what’s the first question that comes to mind when you think about it?” Oro asked.

“I wanna know just what the Ark is,” Xia Fei answered. “The Hall Of Valor and Fig are a shrine and the high-tech corporation respectively, while the Ark sounds like the name of a warship. I checked the databases of both the Skywing Clan and the Law Enforcement Board, but the word ‘Ark’ didn’t turn up at all. I suppose that Ark may not just be a warship but a very secret warship, too.”

Oro nodded with a smile. “There’s someone who can help us find the answer to what the Ark is, and I’m taking you to see him right now.”

The Black and White Gods would not tell Xia Fei these three names for no rhyme or reason. They must have some secret and special connection to the Cosmic Gate, and in order to solve this mystery behind the ‘Ark’, which in turn would help Xia Fei learn the truth about the Cosmic Gate, he was of course more than willing to go on this trip.

The old demon lord took off from his finger a ring carved with a golden lion and said in a deep voice, “Take this. It’ll be useful.”

Xia Fei nodded. He injected Law of Primal Chaos power to his right arm and passed through the boundary made up of the Law of Ternary Spectrum before opening the coffi
