Chapter 5018

“Where is this? Why are there so many immortal stones?”
Mo Qingyun asked in disbelief.

“This is the Demon Suppression Tower. I obtained all these immortal stones from a treasure trove,” Kai replied.

“Just focus on your recovery. Inside the Demon Suppression Tower, time flows differently—much faster.”
“One year outside equals a hundred years in here.”

“What?” Mo Qingyun looked at Kai in shock. “You’re not lying to me, are you?”

“Why would I lie to you? It’s true. Just cultivate properly—once you leave, you’ll see for yourself.”
With that, Kai stopped speaking and quietly began to cultivate.

Seeing this, Mo Qingyun also sat down cross-legged and began her recovery.

While Kai and Mo Qingyun were cultivating, Huo Zhao led the Eight Palaces’ forces to the Cangxuan Continent.

He had two goals—first, to meet with the Great Elder, and second, to find a new place to settle.

Because in the First Heaven, there was no place for the Eight Palaces anymore.

Even their usual speed and dominance had no meaning here.

Huo Zhao’s soul was injured, so he brought the Eight Palaces to the First Heaven to recuperate, taking control of Feihu City to plunder resources at will.

Originally, they believed that with the power of the Eight Palaces, they would be unmatched in the First Heaven.

But no one had expected Kai to show up and stir things up so drastically.

Now, Huo Zhao had to find a new base of operations.

After some thought, the Cangxuan Continent seemed like the ideal choice.

It was vast—over ten times the size of Feihu City—with hundreds of cities. It was also the largest stronghold of the human race.

However, the humans there were generally weak. The ruler of the entire continent was only at the third-grade scattered Immortal level.

With that advantage, the Eight Palaces, along with Feihu City’s troops, began plundering the Cangxuan Continent’s resources and capturing its people as slaves.

The law of the jungle never changes.

Three days later, Kai had fully recovered, and Mo Qingyun had also regained her strength.

However, her Mo Family Spear was lost forever.

“How do you feel?” Kai asked.
“It’s been nearly a year since I started recovering,” Mo Qingyun said with a smile.

Kai simply smiled and said nothing as he led Mo Qingyun out of the Demon Suppression Tower.

As soon as they exited, Mo Qingyun was stunned—everything around them looked exactly the same as it had a year ago.

At that moment, Hu Mazi glanced over and casually asked, “You’ve both recovered?”

“Yes, fully recovered. Do you want to go in and cultivate for a while?” Kai asked.

“No need, I’m doing fine. But I’m running low on talismans—I’ll need to gather materials and make more,” Hu Mazi replied.

“Fellow Daoist, how long have we been cultivating?” Mo Qingyun asked Hu Mazi.

“Three days. It’s only been three days outside,” Hu Mazi answered.

“Three days?” Mo Qingyun was shocked. She turned to Kai in disbelief. Now she fully believed what he had said before.

Three days in the outside world had passed, but inside the tower, they had cultivated for nearly a year.

If they continued training in the Demon Suppression Tower, their cultivation speed would be a hundred times faster than others.

Mo Qingyun looked excited at the thought.

But suddenly, her expression changed. “This is bad…”

“What’s wrong?” Kai asked, confused.

“The Cangxuan Continent is in trouble. Someone is trying to forcibly seize control of the entire continent,” Mo Qingyun said anxiously.

“How do you know that? Are you from the Cangxuan Continent?” Kai asked.

Mo Qingyun shook her head. “No, I’m not originally from there, but I’ve lived in the Cangxuan Continent for many years.”

“I’m the eldest daughter of the Mo family. Our family is based in the Second Heaven, but something happened back then, and I ended up in the First Heaven, living on the Cangxuan Continent for a long time.”
