Chapter 773: Accident

Xiao Fan's face was livid…

Hou Wanli had just explained to him that the temple had not moved for countless years.

Moving it twice suddenly had consumed a massive amount of the temple's energy, so it required recharging to recover…

The temple's recovery meant consuming countless Spirit Stones to recharge it…

Previously, there had been no movement through the Void Realm, so recharging was never an issue, and Hou Wanli had simply forgotten about it.

Now, they were still one major province away from Tianshen Prefecture…

"How long will it take if we move it again?" Xiao Fan asked, looking at Hou Wanli.

"Uh… it will take about three years," Hou Wanli said awkwardly.

"Three years!"

Hearing this answer, Xiao Fan could not remain calm. Was he joking? Did he expect him to wait in the temple for three years?

The amount of Spirit Stones the temple required was enormous; this recharge could potentially consume more than half of the vast reserves in the storehouse!

Hou Wanli had also reported this to Xiao Fan…

Hearing this, Xiao Fan felt as if his heart were being sliced by knives… All those Spirit Stones were going to be gone?!

"Your Majesty… the temple's displacement occurs within a black hole, so the consumption is immense…"

Hou Wanli was very embarrassed; he hadn't expected that his mistake would lead to such consequences!

Xiao Fan was speechless. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Then which part of the Nine Provinces does the outside world connect to now?"

"Uh… Youming Prefecture. This major province is also the one where the previous Human Emperor had the weakest control… The Human Race forces in that province are weak," Hou Wanli said.

Youming Prefecture.

It was an existence second only to Tianshen Prefecture in the Nine Provinces.

There were countless experts here, but the Human Race's ruling power was much weaker.

In this major province, the Demon Race and Yao Race were rampant.

It was also a place that people from all other major provinces in the Nine Provinces, except for the Waste Province known as Wuhuang Province, avoided at all costs!

"The Human Race is weak?" Xiao Fan wondered, why did this phenomenon exist?

"Yes, Your Majesty… because in the past, the passages between the Nine Provinces and the outside world still existed, so they were all interconnected… Therefore, experts from other realms would come, and their gathering place was this Youming Prefecture…"

Hou Wanli explained that the general environment was different back then, and there were spatial passages between the Nine Provinces and the outside world.

And for the sake of easy management, the Human Emperor had let these people gather in Youming Prefecture!

Xiao Fan nodded. That Qing Cang from back then was from the Qingling Clan, right? The other party didn't belong to the creatures of the Nine Provinces; it was possible he was left behind from that time.

"If we leave from Youming Prefecture and head to Tianshen Prefecture, how long will it take?" Xiao Fan asked.

"If we use the teleportation array… it should take a few days."

Xiao Fan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's enter Youming Prefecture directly and head to Tianshen Prefecture from there."

"Your Majesty, might this be dangerous?" Hou Wanli asked worriedly.

"The temple doesn't have the power to move, but the spatial passage can still be opened, right?"

"That can be done, Your Majesty."

"Alright, that's settled. We will head to Youming Prefecture first and go to Tianshen Prefecture directly from there. If we encounter danger that we cannot resist while in Youming Prefecture, I will come back in." Xiao Fan said. Entering Youming Prefecture was dangerous, but where in this world was there something without danger?

Moreover, entering Tianshen Prefecture would undoubtedly be even more dangerous!

"Zhongshan, are you coming with me, or staying here?" Xiao Fan looked at Wei Zhongshan.

"I am willing to go with Big Brother!" Wei Zhongshan said respectfully, looking very serious and earnest. Now, he was willing to die in battle for Xiao Fan!

"Very good." Xiao Fan smiled and then looked at Wei Lingxue: "It is too dangerous outside; stay here and Cultivate properly."

"Yes." Wei Lingxue was equally respectful to Xiao Fan and bowed slightly in salute.

Xiao Fan exchanged some other matters with Hou Wanli, then took Wei Zhongshan and left the temple.

The immeasurable divine pearl possessed the ability to communicate.

While in the temple, Xiao Fan could communicate with the temple through the immeasurable divine pearl.

Later, if Hou Wanli arrived at Tianshen Prefecture, Xiao Fan would also sense it.

Youming Prefecture.

The spiritual energy of this major province was dense and violent, and it was also filled with the stench of blood.

In the Void Realm, a spatial rift appeared.

Xiao Fan and Wei Zhongshan appeared…

They had come here with only one purpose: to use the teleportation array and then head to Tianshen Prefecture…

At the same time, Xiao Fan was also somewhat curious about what this major province, where the Human Emperor's control was previously the weakest, would look like.

Xiao Fan took a breath of the air here, which was even accompanied by a faint scent of blood.

"This major province has heavy slaughter," Xiao Fan said, gazing into the distance, where a powerful Yao Beast was battling a Demon Race monster.

The Yao Race here were not Yao cultivators, but true Yao Race…

"A Yao Race that can take human form… that requires at least Grade 7 to achieve."

A Grade 7 Demonic Beast was equivalent to the strength of a Human Race practitioner in the Yuding Realm; upon reaching this stage, they could take human form.

At this moment, several dozen miles in front of Xiao Fan and the other.

A humanoid Yao Beast and a Demon Race creature covered in black-red patterns were fighting!

"This is the Demon Race…"

Xiao Fan muttered to himself; this was his first time seeing the Demon Race.

"Big Brother…" Wei Zhongshan was by his side, and he naturally saw the battle in the distance too.

Who would have thought that they would see a Grade 7 Demonic Beast just after arriving in Youming Prefecture!

And… the Demon Race creature on the other side was not to be trifled with either!

Being able to fight a Yuding Realm Yao Beast, the Demon Race creature on the other side must be at least in the Yuding Realm!

"Let's go, let's not get close for now." Xiao Fan said; he definitely didn't want to get into a fight just after arriving!

However, Xiao Fan wanted to leave… but the Grade 7 Demonic Beast and the Demon Race creature in the distance did not want to let him leave!

"Human Race, meat."
