Mysterious forest

Sensing the huge disturbance, Huang Fu left the woman lying on the ground and went to Xindian city.

'I initially thought that with this power of mine, I can already live peacefully... But I've become too arrogant, just those powerful existences that are using teleportation through force can already beat me easily, not to mention the woman that fell down from the sky'

Huang Fu sighed as he thought of this, in just a few moments, he is already in front of the manor of his family.

Going inside the manor, Huang Fu saw servants cleaning the grounds and youths training within the training hall. His five year old clone is trading blows with his father using wooden swords while toning down his cultivation level down to body tempering level 6.

Outside the training hall, his grandfather, mother and Jinggou are all standing together while looking at the sight of Huang Fu training.

"Hahaha! My grandson is really talented! He is already at body tempering level 6 while only at five years old and can also defeat higher levels because of his skills in swords!" Zhou Deming is laughing out loud while praising his grandson.

Jinggou and Liu Huian only nodded with a smile on their faces knowing that they all have the same thoughts.

Inside the void, Huang Fu only watched silently at this sight. Despite having a new family, he never felt close to them, that's why he only left his clone. Maybe it's because he came from another world, or because his mentality from before still stayed...

Even if that is the case, he still decided to protect them, it was the least he can do for thanking them.

'Before finding a place to make myself stronger, I need to ensure my family's safety first. System is there anything I can use that can protect my family while I'm away?'

Ding!

Azure Tortoise Formation- Can protect a hundred kilometer area from Divine Saint level peak attacks. It also isolates the space within the formation from the outside world.

500,000 points

Purchase? yes/no

'Yes!'

Huang Fu purchased it without hesitation, even though he doesn't really know how strong divine saint levels are, it is still surely strong.

After purchasing it, he then summoned the formation above the city, formation flags appeared in front of him, it then went towards the hundred kilometer range around the city to position themselves. An illusory huge tortoise nearly invisible to the naked popped up surrounding the city before disappearing.

Finishing this, Huang Fu scanned for places where he can train using 'seeing through space.

30 minutes later, he found a couple of forests that includes spirit beasts that are mostly saint realms while there are also few that are stronger. Most of the forests are thousands of kilometers away while some are millions of kilometers away.

'Hmm? That forest over there is odd'

But there is one forest which is slightly special from the others that caught his attention. The size of the forest only reached up to a thousand kilometers which is very small compared to others. Despite that, he still felt that the space within that forest has much more density compared to what's outside of it, thousand times the difference. Even with his high comprehension on space, he still can't see what's inside using 'seeing through space' skill.

'I better go to that forest, in addition to leveling up, maybe I can even train my comprehension there'

Only a few minutes later of deciding where to go that he decided to go there. Now that he got the whole city protected even though he only intended it for his family, he have no more worries about going to improve his own power.

Walking inside the void, he then went towards the mysterious forest which has a very high density of space compared to others.

...

"What happened?..."

"I just suddenly fainted after I heard I roar, can anyone tell me what was that?"

Body tempering cultivators can be seen scattered around Xindian city waking up one by one with confusion in their faces while mortals are still unconscious. Foundation Establishments and above on the other hand are still trembling despite having the pressure from before already gone as if it was an illusion.

Outside the city gates, Feiyan and the army in front of her are also feeling fear and confusion about what happened. It's the same with General Wang but he still has a more composed expression than others.

'Someone must have placed a formation to protect this city, It's amazing that this city have someone powerful enough to make this kind of formation that can protect them from that pressure' Even though he cant fully sense the where the formation is being placed, he can at least sense when there's one appearing.

'I better inform the King about this' He then remembered about the talisman the king gave him in case of emergencies. He looked down on the talisman held within his hands, it is a rare communication talisman that can contact someone from millions of miles away. He only hesitated for a moment before using it since delivering the information is much more important.

Putting in a strand of his qi, the talisman puffed into smoke. General Wang waited, expecting the face of the king appearing on a fading magic screen.

Hardly a few seconds later, General Wang has a gloomy expression on his face while looking down at the ashes which just fell down on the ground before being carried away by the wind. His subordinate that's beside him smiled bitterly seeing the failed attempt of their leader to use the talisman.

"General, maybe it's the one that released the crushing pressure from a moment ago caused this, the talisman will fail to work if there's someone powerful is using their incredible amount of qi to block the space around them to prevent teleportation."

His subordinate slowly explained with a despaired appearance knowing that even their leader can't beat someone who has that capability since even their king can't teleport.

"Go inside the city! These are matters that only those powerful existences from the empire handle" General Wang sighed as he massaged his brows before ordering his army.

""Yes!""

His army answered in unison as they all hurriedly went inside the city... Behind them, Feiyan hesitated for a moment before following them since she doesn't have anywhere else to go to.

...

In front a forest, a cut in space appeared as Huang Fu came outside of it.

'I can't teleport inside as expected' He tried teleporting inside the forest but considering the density of space in it, it seems impossible with his current level.

Coming down from above, he then continued his way by walking towards the forest. Looking at the plants and trees around the forest, they were the same as the ones he saw from the other forests before, the only difference is that they look much denser and slightly smaller.

While Huang Fu is investigating the surroundings, he felt a strong gust of air that brushed the side of his body. As he turned towards what's behind him, he saw a 6 meter mantis watching him with a prepared battle stance.

'Only a nascent soul lvl 1' With a smirk on his face, he raised his right arm and clenched it as he said "Space Explosion"...

"What?"

Huang Fu was startled as he saw that his skill didn't work. The mantis then took advantage of his startled state and slashed his body with it's sharp blades. Huang Fu was thrown away as his robes were ripped apart but the body unharmed.

"It must be because of the high level grade of my body fortifying manual that I didn't get hurt. But why doesn't my skill work?"

The mantis then charged at him while he's deep in his thoughts.
