Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1404 Refining a Space Ring

"Huh?" Ye Qing looked at Cao Luo strangely and said, "Weren't you marked by them? What you did isn't considered disobeying them?"

Cao Luo shook his head and said, "Although I have been marked, the academy belongs to the Heavenly Evolution Civilization's Emperor of Cause and Effect. This mark was personally placed on me by Emperor of Cause and Effect. Even if I reach the Emperor realm, I cannot disobey him. He hopes that I can grow into an Emperor and be used by him."

At this point, Cao Luo gave a wry smile and said, "So he doesn't usually discipline me much and treats me as the Holy Son of this generation. My status in the academy is actually a few points higher than Chen Sixue's. He hasn't given me any orders. Of course, I can't do anything to the people from the Heavenly Court either!"

"So how exactly will we join forces?" Ye Qing asked.

Cao Luo looked up at Ye Qing, then took a deep breath and said, "You have planted a mark on me!"

"Hmm?" Ye Qing's expression shifted.

“Actually, there’s no need for all that trouble!” the big yellow dog said. “Let me smell your scent carefully. In this boundless world, no matter where you go, I can always find your scent.”

Cao Luo looked at the big yellow dog in surprise and said, "This emperor?"

"You disagree?" The big yellow dog raised an eyebrow at Cao Luo.

"No!" Cao Luo quickly said, "Then hurry up and smell it!"

"You can keep bragging, I'll listen!" the big yellow dog said, lying down on the ground.

Cao Luo was speechless, then he looked at Ye Qing and said, "Your progress is too fast. I really hope you can reach the Great Emperor realm soon and overthrow the Heavenly Court as soon as possible."

"I'd like to, but you have to take things one step at a time!" Ye Qing said. "Has the Heavenly Court made any moves?"

Cao Luo nodded and said, "After the battle of the Chaotic Star Sea, the Heavenly Court has focused its main efforts on the Chaotic Star Sea. It is said that it has formed a siege against the Chaotic Star Sea. However, for some reasons, the Heavenly Court is also hesitant to attack the Chaotic Star Sea. As for the specific reasons, I don't know. But it is said that Emperor Tianqi is already on his way back!"

"The rest is all about you," Cao Luo said. "The Heavenly Court has issued a warrant for your arrest throughout the universe and has already sent people to search for your homeland. Once someone discovers you, the Heavenly Court, to be on the safe side, may directly send a Saint with some Venerable-level beings to deal with you!"

Ye Qing: "...They're directly sending a Sage? The Heavenly Court really wants me dead. So, if that's the case, since we've been exposed here, there's a high probability that a Sage will intercept us?"

“Definitely, and I estimate there might be more than one person!” Cao Luo said, “You have deliberately exposed yourself near the Taixi Ancient Mine. The entire Taixi Ancient Mine will most likely be surrounded by layers of protection, making it extremely difficult for you to leave.”

Ye Qing rubbed his forehead. He had thought of that, and even Wang Xue and the others would have a very difficult time leaving!

They certainly couldn't leave the Taixi Ancient Mine before the end of the rockfall period. And now, the Heavenly Court has most likely already surrounded the entire Taixi Ancient Mine. If they manage to leave the Taixi Ancient Mine outside of the rockfall period, the Heavenly Court will definitely capture them and question them about how they managed to get out of the Taixi Ancient Mine.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing frowned deeply.

"At worst, we can just wait for the next rockfall!" the big yellow dog said, scoffing. "It's only a matter of a few decades!"

Ye Qing rolled his eyes. For the big yellow dog, who had lived for who knows how long, decades was indeed just a blink of an eye. But for Ye Qing, it felt like an eternity, perhaps even a lifetime!

"We'll talk about it later!" Ye Qing said. "We'll leave this place after we break through to the Venerable level."

"Anyway, be careful," Cao Luo said. "I plan to cultivate here until the next Falling Rocks stage, and try to raise my cultivation level to a higher level by then!"

“When you reach the Venerable One level, you will be automatically teleported out of this Boundless World!” Ye Qing said.

“I’ve heard them mention that too!” Cao Luo said. “But I have spatial abilities, so I should be able to hide here. At worst, I can just create my own space!”

Ye Qing's expression shifted, and he said, "By the way, you have spatial properties, so you can refine spatial rings, right?"

“Okay!” Cao Luo said, “However, my strength is not very strong right now, so the storage ring I make probably won’t be very big.”

"Is it troublesome to refine?" Ye Qing asked.

"I estimate it can be finished overnight!" Cao Luo said. "I also need to go back after dawn tomorrow! Shall I make you a spatial ring?"

"Okay!" Ye Qing chuckled and said.

Cao Luo sat down cross-legged, flipped his right hand and took out some silver metal, then asked, "What style do you want? Or can you draw me a blueprint?"

Ye Qing was speechless. He looked at the spatial ring on his hand and said, "Just refine it according to the method of this spatial ring!"

"Okay!" Cao Luo glanced at it, then nodded, and tossed the piece of silver metal in his hand into the air.

In the next instant, space began to distort, and along with this distortion, the silver metal seemed to be constantly shrinking and twisting!

It seemed as if he was using the surrounding space to constantly compress the ring.

As the space compressed, Ye Qing suddenly had a strange feeling, as if the surrounding space was distorting, as if the space was flowing towards the silver metal!

Time passed second by second, and the silver metal kept changing. After several hours, it became the exact same shape as the spatial ring on Ye Qing's hand.

Immediately afterwards, space seemed to become even more distorted.

The big yellow dog lay on the ground, sniffing incessantly.

Ye Qing simply watched silently, and before he knew it, a night had passed by quietly!

When dawn broke the next day, Cao Luo let out a sigh of relief!

Immediately afterwards, the ring that had been floating in the air suddenly fell to the ground.

Cao Luo wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Take a look, is it okay?"

"Is it finished?" Ye Qing picked up the spatial ring from the ground, and then his true energy surged.

"Buzz!"

In the next instant, a vast space appeared in front of Ye Qing!

"Hiss!" Ye Qing gasped, "So big?"
