Chapter 796: 795. The Puzzling World Chapter 796: 795. The Puzzling World “`
In the vast expanse of space, suddenly a green vortex-like portal appeared.

Three Spiritual Falcon Maidens, Er Ya, Ali, and the two fox ladies, Xin Mei and Xin Ning, the entirety of the Infinite Squad, emerged one after the other.

Although it was a cosmic environment, everyone was more than mere mortals, so they didn’t feel any discomfort.

At this moment, they all turned their gaze toward a bright blue planet not far away.

The planet looked strikingly familiar, 90% similar to Blue Star, but its surface was shrouded in a thin layer of yellow fog, the solid manifestation of a rich spiritual energy.

Ping An was the first to speak, “This world is very similar to ours.”

Er Ya took up the conversation voluntarily, “This is our first time out, and after studying the material Uncle Master gave us, I deliberately chose a world we’re familiar with.”

“Since it’s a world originating from the same realm, we shouldn’t be too harsh in extracting its spiritual energy.”

“It doesn’t matter, this trip is meant for team bonding and practice, and besides, we can bring back some natural treasures.”

The Spiritual Falcon Maidens and Er Ya had not only learned knowledge on Blue Star but had also greatly broadened their horizons. At this moment, they spoke with ease and confidence.

By contrast, Xin Mei, Xin Ning, and Ali were a bit less composed, their tails wagging rapidly, a look of sheer amazement indicating their widened worldviews:
“Have we just arrived in another universe?”

“So this is what it’s like to traverse the myriad realms of the cosmos… truly magical…”

After the initial shock, it was time to get down to business.

However, the seven young ladies naturally split into three groups according to their factions.

The Spiritual Falcon Maidens and Er Ya had always been at odds and jointly viewed the newly arrived fox ladies with hostility, while Ali was close friends with the fox ladies… the relationships were intricately complex.

The team couldn’t go on looking like something out of a “palace drama” series, so Er Ya took the initiative to speak up:
“On this mission, we must unite to relieve the Immortal Venerable of worries. If there have been any offenses on normal days, I hope everyone can forgive and not let it affect the Immortal Venerable’s important matters.”

Her speech was logical and well-founded, and in the end, she even reached out her hand sincerely, looking at the other ladies.

Ping An, always calm and steady, was the first to reach out and shake hands with her, and the other ladies extended their hands as well.

Thus, the Infinite Squad had come to an agreement… at least on the surface, it appeared so.

After that, the three Spiritual Falcon Maidens manifested their demon aspects, carrying everyone silently into the planet’s atmosphere.

~~~~~~~~~~
As soon as they entered this world, a strong spiritual energy greeted them, invigorating the ladies.

But what they saw next was astonishing.

Looking down from high above, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, the Five Great Mountains… familiar scenes unfolded before their eyes.

Although they knew from space that the two worlds were very similar, such identicality could only mean one thing–
Ping An and Er Ya looked at each other and simultaneously said, “Parallel universe!”

At that time, the Spiritual Falcon Maidens were soaring above the clouds, and beneath them lay a city, with the words “Fengtian” written on the city gate.

The familiar square script, the people of the same race, further confirmed the reality of the parallel universe.

“It’s a parallel universe like Uncle Master’s hometown. No… even closer to Divine Land.”

Having projected her spirit for the first time, Er Ya observed the world with a unique perspective and saw many different sights.

Martial artists fighting with firearms and fists, spirit refiners riding on flying swords… This world had the martial path, spirit refinement, and guns, much more like Divine Land.

Er Ya quickly decided, “In that case, it’s even more convenient for us to act. Let’s first set up the magic artifacts necessary for extracting the spiritual energy.”

The remote and unpopulated mountain forests of the Northern Lands were perfect for setting up the magic artifacts. The difficult and distant journey was not a problem at all.

All it took was a single flap of the Spiritual Falcon Maidens’ wings and they sped up to three times supersonic speed, promptly bringing everyone to their destination in no time.

With them present, Infinite Squad’s mobility was incredibly strong; there was no place too far to reach.

The setup of the magic artifacts was rather simple,
The ladies took out metal pillars one by one and drove them into the ground, and Xin Mei even set up a warning spell to guard against any accidents.

“`
The Magic Artifact immediately began to work upon being buried in the ground, slowly extracting the essence of this world’s spirit.

Such smooth progress was indeed a good start, and Er Ya nodded in satisfaction. She then said,
“It’s estimated to take a week’s time. Next, let’s go to the major cities and try to search for genius treasures.”

~~~~~~~~~~
To stimulate the Spirit Domain, it must be the top-tier Innate treasures that would suffice.

Finding such things on one’s own was like looking for a needle in a haystack; the fastest ways were to buy them or seize them by force.

Thus, the “Infinite Squad” came to the largest city in the Northern Lands, which was also the first one they had encountered–Fengtian.

Before entering the city, there was another issue to address.

The group was simply too eye-catching, being composed entirely of pretty young girls, including a few with fluffy tails and ears; it was hard not to attract attention.

At this time, the two fox ladies from the Xin family proved to be of great use again.

Xin Mei and Xin Ning shook their fluffy tails, and a few fox hairs fell upon everyone.

The next second, the 7 young ladies transformed into 7 handsome “young masters.”

Er Ya exclaimed in surprise, “An illusion spell?”

Xin Mei responded with a smile, “Just a little trick, nothing to laugh at.”

“Can it be seen through?”

“Absolutely not by anyone below Divine Manifestation.”

Er Ya opened her Heavenly Eye to check and, indeed, found no abnormalities, internally admiring the fox ladies’ rare divine skills.

In the end, she summoned the Star Key to change everyone into men’s attire, thus eliminating the biggest giveaway.

~~~~~~~~~~
The group swaggered up to the gates of Fengtian City, where the city walls were adorned with the Five-Colored Flag, and soldiers in black military uniforms were checking “Good Citizen Certificates.”

The name sounded eerily familiar, and Er Ya wore a strange expression on her face…

Xin Mei casually picked up a few leaves and handed them to the soldiers
The soldiers scrutinized them as if they were serious, then waved them through without realizing they had been duped.

Their colleagues nearby, along with other civilians, failed to notice anything amiss as well.

Xin Mei, letting her fox nature emerge, covered her mouth and giggled triumphantly.

However, Er Ya, Ali, and the Spiritual Falcon Maiden, the young girls who had joined the campaign against Izumo, could not find it funny.

All around inside Fengtian City were Izumo’s script on the signs, Izumo Warriors arguing in the streets, and even Izumo women in kimonos and carrying paper umbrellas strutting around!

Such a sight made Er Ya recall the “Izumo Concession” she had seen as a child.

“Why are there so many Izumo people?”

“The development of this world is indeed strange…”

Back home, Izumo had become an overseas colony, and nearly everyone had almost forgotten that such a country existed.

So to the young ladies, the scenes in this world truly defied all norms!

But they did not know that had it not been for Lu Yao, some things would have been even more outlandish.

Er Ya went to buy many newspapers at the roadside and, along with Ping An, quickly read through them like human scanners.

“Are we in Jinzhou Province?”

“Has Izumo completely occupied the Northern Lands!?”

“What are the Martial Artists of this world doing? Aren’t there the ‘Top Ten Experts of the Heavenly List’? A full 10 Great Grandmasters, how could they let Izumo run rampant!”

“Wait a second! This ‘Sect Master of Joyful Sect,’ ranked second on the Heavenly List, the present-day ‘Joyful Bodhisattva’… doesn’t this seem a lot like Liao Ya!?”

Upon just a brief contact with this world, a plethora of doubts assailed them.
