Shun Long smiled lightly when he heard Chen Yan's offer but he didn't even consider it before he shook his head in response.

Return to the Heaven's Dome city?

He and Liu Mei had left the city because they weren't strong enough.

Although their cultivation had definitely advanced a lot since then, but in front of the strongest people of the younger generation of the 'Night star continent', they would be unable to even put up a fight.

''Forget about the strongest people of the continent, even Chen Yan's cultivation is more than 5 minor ranks above mine and Mei'er's.

Don't even mention those who have already reached the Nascent Soul stage like the third princess of the dark elves or the blue-haired young master of the 'Golden Exchange firm', Hu Liu, as well as the rest of the people at the top of the rankings!''

As this thought flashed through Shun Long's mind, he was even more determined to become stronger.

Seeing that Liu Mei had also stayed silent, obviously agreeing with Shun Long's decision, Chen Yan sighed before he shook his head and cupped his hands in response.

Then, with a smile on his face, he first turned his eyes to look at his sister, before he looked at Shun Long and said with a light smile on his face

''In that case brother Shun, let's part ways here. If we are lucky enough to meet in the future, then let's have drinks together!''

Shun Long nodded his head at the smiling Chen Yan and Chen Wuying who was actually pouting her lips as she looked at him.

As the 2 siblings left, Liu Mei turned her head to look at Shun Long, and after a moment's hesitation, she asked seriously

''Long-ge, do you want to join the 'Holy sect'?''

After she had seen the eager look in Chen Yan's face once he received the 'icicle soul grass', Liu Mei understood that practically everyone from the younger generation of the 'Night star continent' would be willing to join the 'Holy sect' or the 'Demon Emperor palace' and go to the central region.

Shun Long thought seriously for a moment after hearing Liu Mei's question, before he shook his head and said

''That will depend on what kind of sect it really is.

If it's a sect that restricts its disciples from even leaving the sect's premises like the 'Floating Cloud sect', then of course there is no reason for us to join.

At the same time, it doesn't make much of a difference whether we join the 'Holy sect' or the 'Demon Emperor palace'.

However, if this is the only way to leave the 'Night star continent', then we will most likely have to join one of these powers in the future.''

After a moment of deliberation, Shun Long had a mocking smile on his face as he continued

''Of course, if they are sects like the 'Floating Cloud sect', then I don't mind using them until we arrive at the central region before I leave.''

Liu Mei nodded her head with a serious look in her eyes when she heard Shun Long's words.

Indeed, if they didn't want to stay confined in the 'Night star continent' forever, then they had to go towards the central region if they wanted to become stronger.

After all, Liu Mei already knew that Shun Long had certain things that he had to do in the future.

She also knew that Shun Long had some kind of secret inside his body, even if he hadn't explicitly explained what it was, so if he suddenly ended up disappearing again just like the last time in the 'City of Sin', he needed to be strong enough in order to stay alive the next time!

Of course, it wasn't that Shun Long didn't trust Liu Mei which was why he didn't tell her about the 'Stone of Time', but because he knew, that the mental burden from a secret like this would definitely pressure Liu Mei a lot.

At the same time, Liu Mei didn't care too much about what kind of secret Shun Long had in his body either.

As long as he was safe and they continued to stay together, then this was enough for her.

Seeing that Liu Mei had understood his intentions, Shun Long smiled at her before he held her hand and said seriously

''Mei'er, let's look for a place to rest for the next few days.''

Seeing Liu Mei nod her head, Shun Long took a look around their surroundings, before they actually left the snow mountain behind them.

Of course, the environment around the mountain's peak was actually very good for Shun Long and Liu Mei to stay in this place, but considering that the disappearance of the 2 'snow apes' would soon attract the attention of the powerful rank 5 magic beasts from nearby, made Shun Long's plans of staying here nothing but a fleeting thought that was soon extinguished.

At the same time, Shun Long didn't forget that the middle-aged man named Hao Chin would sooner or later come to this place to obtain the stalks of 'icicle soul grass'.

Although Shun Long had the poison from the 'Soul poisoning hell grass', there was no reason to put himself in an unfavorable situation to fight against the peak rank 9 Spirit realm expert.

At the same time, if the man brought a group of more than 6 people, among of which there were even a few Nascent Soul stage experts, Shun Long knew that after exposing the 'Soul poisoning hell grass' poison to kill the first few people, the rest of them would be on their guards against it making the rest of the fight even harder.

As for summoning Little Silver to take care of these people, unless absolutely necessary, Shun Long wasn't willing to expose the black panther in this den of magic beasts.

He didn't know if there were any peak rank 9 Dao Kings hidden at the depths of the 'Ten thousand beasts' mountain range' looking for rank 6 medicinal herbs or magic beasts, who could actually be attracted by the panther's aura and would try to 'tame' Little Silver for themselves.

If Little Silver really exposed its aura, although a peak rank 9 Dao King wouldn't be able to necessarily notice it, Shun Long wasn't willing to take this risk without any reason.

A couple of hours later, Shun Long and Liu Mei arrived at a small, isolated mountain a few tens of miles from the north of the 'snow apes' snowy mountain.

Seeing that there was a relatively small but comfortable cave near the center of the mountain, Shun Long led Liu Mei as they both entered inside it, before Liu Mei summoned a group of her skeletons to guard the surroundings of the mountain instead.

Seeing that Liu Mei had started to practice her swordsmanship, tacitly giving Shun Long time to do what he wanted, Shun Long first had Little Silver completely retract its aura and guard the entrance of the cave, before he sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes, as he returned inside the foggy space in the 'Stone of Time'.

Looking at the bodies of the 2 rank 5 'snow apes' that were sprawled in front of him, an excited look flashed through Shun Long's eyes, as he was ready to finally advance to the middle of the fourth stage in the 'Monarch's Eternal body'!
