Lucius looked around on the map but could not see Qi You anywhere.
"Huh… so he had a teleportation talisman. No wonder he was able to cover such as long distance so quickly, he and his kingdom have a fixed location teleportation talisman…" Lin Wu understood.
"System, check if the man is anywhere just in case?" Lin Wu ordered.

"So he really did travel quite far. Well… I guess I can just let it be for now since it doesn''t really cause me any problems." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
''At least I got to learn of the situation of the kingdoms a bit more and even who has Dao Shell realm cultivators. Plus I got to know of how the cultivators of these ces teach about the Dao Treading realm.'' Lin Wu thought to himself.
He turned around and made his way to the smallke where he had hidden the tform. Theke was just slightly bigger than the tform and managed to amodate itpletely. Though it wasn''t as if the tform was too deep in theke either.
Due to the sides of theke being shallower than the middle, the tform inadvertence stayed close to the surface of the water due to being prevented from going any deeper. Right now, the tform was not directly visible from the outside, but if one got closer to theke and looked into the water, they would find the t tform just at a two meter depth.
Still, to Lin Wu, this didn''t really matter as it was far unlikely for anyone to find it. And even if they did there was little they could honestly do with the tform. Its main purpose which was to take the inheritor of the Vermillion bird to different sites was already fulfilled.
Originally this tform was not even supposed to leave its intended paths. It was only able to move on those paths because of the invisible spirit Qi channels that had been set up. These were hidden to most people and would not even be sensed by a formation master.
The spirit Qi was kept at a frequency that only the tform could sense and it would then absorb that while traveling. It was simr to how there were power lines at the top of a train from which it absorbed electricity to run the engine.
But Lin Wu here had modified that with the help of the system to make it so that the tform could operate independently without the need of those channels. There were already spirit Qi absorbing formations on it, which the system modified to take spirit Qi from the air.
This way the tform had changed from a train that could only move on a specific path to an aircraft that could go anywhere as long as it got fuel. Of course, the efficiency was far lower in the case of the tform since it did not have the concentrated supply like before.
Though this was something that could be changedter on since the only change that happened due to that was the lowered speed. No longer could the tform move at sub-sonic speeds.
In fact, its speed was actually a bit slower than Lin Wu''s full flying speed. But the tform was still something Lin Wu wanted to keep as it was just too cool and coulde in handyter.
<em>~shua~</em>
<em>~drip~drip~drip~</em>
The sound of water parting was heard as the tform started to rise up from theke. The water on it slid off and dripped from the side as the sound of a waterfall was created temporarily.
<em>~THUD~</em>
Lin Wu jumped onto the tform and let it rise up into the sky. A few beasts that were nearby were startled but it caused no problem for Lin Wu. Once the tform reached the maximum height it could for now, which was just slightly more than two hundred meters, it started to move.
<em>~shua~</em>
The tform sped through the sky and started moving towards the east.
"Hmm… at this speed I should reach the Ling Kingdom in less than a month and the forest a couple of days after that." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
He checked the map and zoomed out to see the distance which was of several thousand kilometers. The Ling kingdom was on the eastern side of the continent, while the Ivory Heron kingdom was on the western side.
''I guess I can just cultivate here while the system carries me there.'' Lin Wu thought to himself.
"No wait, I may as well just switch to my main body and let this wine cultivate on autopilot." Lin Wu decided.
With that done, he gave the system some instructions on how to travel. He wanted the system to avoid the main popted areas so that the tform would not be seen. The tform originally had an illusory formation that could hide itpletely but the Skull god had damaged that as well.
Plus the spirit Qi needed to run all of those formation arrays at once was far higher than what the tform could absorb right now. Thus Lin Wu had no choice but to take a detour.
He could technically just store the tform in the storage of the system and travel on his own, but that would mean that he would have to actively travel there. This would end up wasting some time which Lin Wu reckoned he could use much better.
The trade-off was obvious. On one side he would reach the millennium forest in what would be perhaps less than fifteen days, but this would leave him exhausted and tired when he reached the forest.
And on the second side, he could use the tform to travel which would use up no spirit Qi of his own and even give him time to cultivate. By the time he would reach the millennium forest, Lin Wu would be even more stronger than he was right now.
