Chills ran down Chui Yim’s spine at how the other stared at him, thus he pulled out a jug of alcohol from his Divine Bracelet of Five Elements427Please respect copyright.PENANAFNd88TTv3O
Hui Sai Cheong’s eyes lit up the moment he saw the jug and started chugging it, not even minding that it had leaked on his protruding belly. He only looked up in satisfaction after some time, but it worried Chui Yim because half of the jug was already finished!427Please respect copyright.PENANAtTY4uuUWOD
Hui Sai Cheong waved his right hand and drew a gliph in mid-air, and a cotton-candy-like golden cloud formed in front of both of them. It was the Floating Cloud gliph, the symbol of Cloud Palace.427Please respect copyright.PENANARNLOTShPOS
“Let’s go, Little Junior Brother!”

Where there’s light in the world, there’s darkness.427Please respect copyright.PENANAOvATCzAZJ1
Two figures walked into the light from the darkness.427Please respect copyright.PENANAb6lIvradUS
The teen squinted his eyes like a ferocious tiger. He gave off vibes of a dangerous and hardworking teen, but this was only a subconscious action because of the striking sunlight…427Please respect copyright.PENANAghutya1Ppm
It had been more than five years since he saw the sun, which had him reminiscing about the past.427Please respect copyright.PENANAsqzsR3aOMF
“Sacred son-” Behind him stood a man looking at him with respect.427Please respect copyright.PENANAq3L3HsixyD
“Just address me as Young Master outside.”427Please respect copyright.PENANAjUR03pyRA3
“Where are we heading? Young Master?” The man nodded.427Please respect copyright.PENANAxDOAEqXlaY
The teenager looked towards the sun with his hands behind his back, slowly opening his eyes. It took him some time to get used to the sun once again. “I’ve heard that the West’s Red Rampart Desert is a famous attraction of the world. We definitely must head over for a look.”427Please respect copyright.PENANAmE5yOZyVOp
“Yes, Young Master.” The man bowed slightly.427Please respect copyright.PENANAaWwnlDSeLP
With that, the man stood behind the teenager in the sand under the sunlight; they did not seem shady in the slightest.

Chui Yim stood on the golden cloud, riding it peacefully.427Please respect copyright.PENANASF7xDKcDus
The Floating Cloud gliph was the symbol of a Cloud Palace disciple, as well as a secret gliph of theirs. Chui Yim and Kam Chin Kee had already picked it up, but due to their cultivation, they could not fly for long distances.
What worried Chui Yim most was Hui Sai Cheong continuously drinking.427Please respect copyright.PENANAnr5CvoFjy7
It was at this moment that Chui Yim realised he was an idiot.427Please respect copyright.PENANAlXKJ0l1q8G
He gave Hui Sai Cheong the Drunken Year, a cooking wine Yeung Chun created.427Please respect copyright.PENANA8BSk9QLs6s
With that as a base, Chui Yim improvised the recipe and treated it like a drinking wine. Adding top-notch glutinous rice wine and about twenty other ingredients, he made this wine that had a great alcohol percentage, but the great aroma and texture made it one of Chui Yim’s favourites.427Please respect copyright.PENANAAjLLoR3WeI
But due to its high alcohol percentage, he would only drink one small glass at a time.427Please respect copyright.PENANAjicU5tApaG
Yet Hui Sai Cheong had downed half a jug…427Please respect copyright.PENANAnz8LvYJa44
“Hahaha, I’m a bird!” Hui Sai Cheong flapped his arms like a bird. Honestly, he looked more like a fat chicken to Chui Yim…427Please respect copyright.PENANAdcCFyDvC6i
“Erm… Senior Brother, keep an eye on the gliph control…”427Please respect copyright.PENANA9DxQChfT7N
“Tell me, who am I?” Hui Sai Cheong glared at him. “I’m the third teacher! I’ve used this gliph at least a thousand times! How could anything go wrong!?”427Please respect copyright.PENANA2gJJUn1ZvH
“Erm… Senior Brother! We are falling down! Senior Brother!”427Please respect copyright.PENANAMuJnwGwqwg
“Bullshit, we are going forward!”427Please respect copyright.PENANA8bHXbNS9xx
“Huh!? Senior Brother! There’s a tree… eh? Senior Brother? Have you fallen asleep?!”427Please respect copyright.PENANApxqRUXPlye
Boom!! A ball of golden light passed the sky and landed in the woods.427Please respect copyright.PENANAfpYxWFhg70
Dust flew everywhere and they even knocked a few trees down, scaring the resting beasts away.427Please respect copyright.PENANAK5eYRJAngz
Chui Yim climbed out of the huge hole in the ground speechlessly.427Please respect copyright.PENANAInNNp1RiHZ
Amongst the Cloud Palace disciples, Hui Sai Cheong had the best physical body, followed by himself. If it were any of the others, they would have become a pile of minced meat after falling from the sky! Even so, Chui Yim’s body hurt greatly, and he still had to pull a huge man who was snoring like thunder. He couldn’t understand how the other could still be asleep after falling from the skies.427Please respect copyright.PENANAwhklH80qgg
“I’m defeated. How can he still remain asleep?” Chui Yim complained while thinking to himself if this was Great Senior Brother’s punishment to him. Third Senior Brother is a living joke…427Please respect copyright.PENANAIEYRorFCGA
With a sigh, he pulled Hui Sai Cheong out of the forest further west.

The South and the North were the most mentioned, but that didn’t mean that they made up the whole world.427Please respect copyright.PENANAkuhRr1AyR3
It was just a boundary that separated the Southern side with the Lam dynasty in control and the Northern side controlled by the large tribes.427Please respect copyright.PENANAyts4XS83cw
However, that wasn’t all parts of the world.427Please respect copyright.PENANAFjFRTYXBXs
The East consisted of a vast ocean, and only birds were found on what little land there was. It was filled with aquatic gliphic beasts that were even stronger than land gliphic beasts of the same state. Due to it being unsuitable for human survival, not many would fight for territory in the Eastern Sea.427Please respect copyright.PENANArquIz8Dg2d
The West was a dry desert.427Please respect copyright.PENANABCNwYxeEQ7
It was deserted in the West, and unlike the North’s cold temperature throughout the year, the West suffered from unbearable heat. Nobody could explain why the weather in the West was hot all year round, just like how the reason North had to suffer from winter’s icy breath most of the time remains unknown.427Please respect copyright.PENANA9rM0xrUt20
Compared to the North where humans could at least hide in their warm residences, the West was more unfit for living. The blazing weather caused humans' energy to drain quickly, and it was difficult for plants to survive. The few plants that could be found were inedible.427Please respect copyright.PENANAnBDWtK1HqQ
Beasts that could live in such an environment were obviously stronger than other gliphic beasts.427Please respect copyright.PENANArfkUlOTWjc
In the far reaches of the West, there was a forbidden area called the Red Rampart Desert.427Please respect copyright.PENANAg5fYXXRF5r
The Red Rampart Desert was a dangerous place. It was said to house a powerful sect a thousand years ago, but one day, the entire sect disappeared into thin air, leaving only the buildings behind. As time passed, the West became a desolate area.427Please respect copyright.PENANA0WlJRPOIl8
The sect was then buried by quicksand and became a place for cultivators to search for treasure. Cultivators left with treasure every decade or so and gained huge wealth in a single night. But after a thousand years, the easily obtained treasures were all taken away, leaving only those buried extremely well, so the area was mostly a place for clan disciples to have their adventures at now. Thus, cultivators could be spotted in the area from time to time.427Please respect copyright.PENANAbpuLMiSEgj
With that, the West became a forbidden area, meant only for cultivators to train themselves.427Please respect copyright.PENANARo2Pu7gTXA
Many years ago, Chui Yim bought a nameless fire bead at the Black Tortoise auction house.427Please respect copyright.PENANAPS6bOEIzyg
During his time at Cloud Palace, he broke the restriction on the fire bead and discovered a flame inside of it. He sought advice from Sung Tsz Hin who told him that it was a key to the actual flame.427Please respect copyright.PENANAK8SOIGkdnj
Sung Tsz Hin went to Cheuk Kwun, and with his Spirit Roaming and Celestial Pearl, they figured that the key pointed towards the Red Rampart Desert.
