The Strongest Dandy in the City Chapter 2622 - 2611: Upper World! Soul Instrument Pavilion!

The South Mountain Old Demon looked at Ye Chenfeng with a determined tone, unsure of where Ye Chenfeng’s confidence came from.

The Guos in the Upper World, although just a second-rate power, had several strong leaders in the later stages of the Divine Emperor Realm, making it not easy to eliminate them.

How many years had the South Mountain Old Demon cultivated in the Middle Realm? He never had the courage to go to the Upper World, fearing that he wouldn’t be able to exact revenge. When he left the Upper World all those years ago, he was in his youth, and now with time long passed, he had become an old man, unclear about the current state of the Guos—were they stronger than before or had they declined?

The South Mountain Old Demon didn’t speak further; a wave of sadness filled him. Back then, he had been abandoned by his own father. No one believed his words, and he was helpless yet stubborn. Through the years, he held onto a resolve that had driven him this far.

After resting in the woods for a while, Ye Chenfeng and his group set out again. The head of the Skyhawk was re-wrapped in black cloth by him, and he hung it directly on his shoulder.

Ye Chenfeng slightly altered his appearance. After all, the Hes’ wanted posters extended throughout the Lower Realm, Middle Realm, and Upper Realm. As for Shen Xiutian and the South Mountain Old Demon, they didn’t need to change their appearances.

After Shen Xiutian went to the Upper World alone back then, he discovered the secret of the Sky Feather Sect and was later chased by three Divine Emperor Realm late-stage patriarchs of the Sky Feather Sect.

The Sky Feather Sect appeared to be a prestigious and upright sect but secretly collected the hearts of young boys and girls, and back then, the Sky Feather Sect discovered a relic from the Chaos Era.

Ye Chenfeng was quite interested in the Chaos Era ruins discovered by the Sky Feather Sect. There were three Divine Emperor Realm late-stage patriarchs in the Sky Feather Sect, and both Shen Xiutian and the South Mountain Old Demon on Ye Chenfeng’s side were at the late-stage of the Divine Emperor Realm, and his own battle prowess was not inferior. Thus, Shen Xiutian didn’t need to change his appearance. If the Sky Feather Sect approached them on its own, it would be just right.

As for the South Mountain Old Demon, it’s estimated that the Guos wouldn’t recognize him anymore since he was just a youth when he left the Upper World.

Fang Duo’er and Song Lanruo followed closely; Ye Chenfeng hadn’t brought them into the small world yet, planning to do so after reaching the Upper World.

The entrance from the Middle Realm to the Upper World was in the Extreme North Lands.

They only took occasional rests during the journey; the rest of the time was spent on traveling, sometimes making use of a Teleportation Array.

After traveling for over ten days, Ye Chenfeng and his group finally arrived at the Extreme North Lands of the Middle Realm.

The Extreme North Lands were exceedingly cold; no cultivators typically ventured there unless heading toward the Upper World.

Opening the entrance to the Upper World required at least a powerful person in the late-stage of the Divine Emperor Realm.

All that could be seen in the Extreme North Lands was a vast expanse of white, ice and snow covering everything between heaven and earth.

Shen Xiutian and the South Mountain Old Demon knew where the entrance to the Upper World was. They stepped into the air and headed to the right, and after about ten minutes, they landed on the ground.

The ground here was not covered by snow, nor were there any ice blocks; it was indistinguishable from ordinary ground outside, except for a gigantic Teleportation Array drawn upon it.

This enormous Teleportation Array was extremely complex. Even Ye Chenfeng, with a profound understanding of formations, frowned deeply upon seeing it. The complexity of this formation was beyond his imagination, and when it was set up, many formation grandmasters likely spent considerable time working together.

The South Mountain Old Demon and Shen Xiutian simultaneously activated the Teleportation Array, explaining to Ye Chenfeng as they did.

The Teleportation Array leading to the Upper World transported to different places each time it was activated.

However, everyone within the formation is sure to be transported to the same place.

In the Upper World, several different areas connect with this Teleportation Array. After someone in the Middle Realm activates it and gets transported, the corresponding place in the Upper Realm also consumes a significant amount of energy.

Therefore, all the places connected to this Teleportation Array are controlled by the major powers in the Upper World. Every time a Middle Realm cultivator is transported to the Upper World,

the forces managing the connected places require them to perform certain tasks in return due to the energy expenditure, which is an unwritten rule in the Upper World.

While the South Mountain Old Demon and Shen Xiutian explained, the Teleportation Array fully activated. Ye Chenfeng felt a blur before him, and a sensation of the world spinning.

Once his vision gradually recovered, he found himself in a vast room.

They were within a formation in the room, linked to the Teleportation Array from the Middle Realm. This formation was used for receiving, and each reception consumed a substantial amount of energy.

They were randomly transported here. Which power in the Upper World does this place belong to?

Shortly after Ye Chenfeng and his group were transported, a middle-aged man in a white robe appeared in the enormous room.

This middle-aged man had two small mustaches on his lips, with seven small white swords embroidered on his chest.

The small sword pattern symbolized the Soul Instrument Pavilion of the Upper World.

The Soul Instrument Pavilion was a refining power in the Upper World with significant influence.

A single small sword embroidered on the chest represented a First Grade Artifact Refiner, two swords for a Second Grade...

And so forth continuously.

This meant the middle-aged man was a Seventh Rank Artifact Refiner.

The South Mountain Old Demon and Shen Xiutian secretly transmitted explanations to Ye Chenfeng, indicating they had arrived at the Soul Instrument Pavilion of the Upper World.

This should be the headquarters of the Soul Instrument Pavilion, as only the headquarters would house a place connected to the Middle Realm Teleportation Array.

The aura from the middle-aged man wasn’t particularly strong, only Mid Divine Honor Realm, though he surely noticed that the South Mountain Old Demon and Shen Xiutian were late-stage Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses. However, his expression remained unchanged, as if he didn’t regard the late-stage Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses highly at all.

And justifiably so.

This was the headquarters of the Soul Instrument Pavilion, and the Soul Instrument Pavilion held a special status in the Upper World, naturally making these Artifact Refiners lofty.

Shen Xiutian again sent a voice transmission to Ye Chenfeng: "Benefactor, we cannot offend the Soul Instrument Pavilion. There are defenders with peak Divine Emperor Realm strength in the headquarters of the Soul Instrument Pavilion. If we offend them, leaving here might turn incredibly difficult for us."
