Chapter 1688: Towards Crimson Fire Desert
Qingfeng and the Second Prince then left with the ten or so men in black behind them, being the third to leave.
After they left the Imperial Capital, all three groups rushed towards the Crimson Fire Desert.
At the same time, the five kingdoms of the southern Crimson Fire Continent; Lingyun, Fiery-Sun, Gold-Arrow, Clear-Wood, Soil-Border, and all of their princes, princesses, lords, along with powerful talents and supreme level final sect disciples, all rushed into the Crimson Fire Desert.
Everyone ran at their fastest speeds, because they wanted to get to the Crimson Fire Desert sooner to obtain the monarch soul fruit.
Qingfeng's coach was very fast as it sped along the way like a ray of lightning, as a supreme level wind demonic leopard pulled on it.
This kind of demonic leopard was incredibly fast; it was creating gusts of mad wind and lightning as it ran, shaking the heaven and earth as its paws hit the ground like thunder.
Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Li Yang sat inside the coach with eyes closed in meditation.
Suddenly, Black Puppy frowned as worry appeared in its eyes. It waved its black tail as if it was anxious.
Qingfeng asked, "Puppy what's wrong, do you smell something familiar?"
Black Puppy nodded and said, "I just caught a hint of Sky-Devouring Snake's presence, it must be heavily wounded, weak, and being hunted. We must hurry to the Crimson Fire Desert to save it."
Qingfeng nodded. Of course, he knew that they had to get to Crimson Fire Desert soon, but the wind demonic leopard was already fast enough.
Qingfeng patted Black Puppy on its head and said, "Don't worry, Sky-Devouring Snake should be fine. It's the ancestor of all snakes, and the number one snake between the heavens and earth after all. We'll find it as soon as we get to the Crimson Fire Desert."
He would find the monarch soul fruit afterwards, because Sky-Devouring Snake was the top in his mind. The monarch soul fruit may be important, but not as important as Sky-Devouring Snake.
After traveling a thousand meters away from the Imperial Capital, the Crown Prince called out a massive spiritual ship from his interspatial ring that could seat ten or so people.
The Crown Prince shouted, "All those from the Crown Prince Palace jump into the spiritual ship, I'll take you into the Crimson Fire Desert with my supreme level vitality stones."
All those around the Crow Prince lit up with joy, as they happily jumped into the spiritual ship.
This spiritual ship was a fifth level supreme dharma treasure that could sore into the sky ten times faster than the speed of lightning.
However, the spiritual ship also uses a lot of energy, as it needed supreme level vitality stones to fly. The Crown Prince gave it his all just to reach the Crimson Fire Desert faster.
There must be no more than three of these treasures in the entire Royal Palace.
Of course, the Emperor didn't give this spiritual ship to the Crown Prince; instead the Empress secretly opened the Palace treasure chest to sneak the spiritual ship to the Crown Prince.
The Empress hoped that the Crown Prince would find the monarch soul fruit to prolong the Emperor's life, which would ensure that the Crown Prince becomes the future Emperor.
There were plenty of wind talisman scripts on the spiritual ship, which represented speed. As the talisman scripts lit up the space, a massive force of energy engulfed the space like a tornado.
The spiritual ship formed into a ray of black lightning that immediately disappeared from its position as it charged towards the Crimson Fire Desert.
The Third Princess frowned when she saw this as her eyes filled with surprise. She never thought the Crown Prince would have such a rare Royal Palace treasure.
The Third Princess has seen it before when the Emperor wanted to give it to her, but the Empress took it away. Who knew it would end up in the hands of the Crown Prince.
The Third Princess activated her mind, and called out a massive white crane from the sky.
This white crane looked like the mythical immortal crane with snow-white feathers, like the purest snow, it was incredibly graceful and beautiful.
There was no one else aside from a woman in green, the Crown Princess Red-swallow, who followed beside the Third Princess.
The Third Princess pulled on Princess Red-swallow to form a ray of lightning that soared into the sky and immediately landed on top of the white crane.
The Third Princess lightly patted the white crane's head.
The white crane formed a ray of white lightning that disappeared into the void as it charged towards the Crimson Fire Desert.
The Second Prince and Qingfeng were speechless as they looked from below. They both thought that their wind demonic leopards were already fast enough, but who knew the Crown Prince and Third Princess both had their tricks. Undoubtedly the two would be there before them.
Qingfeng frowned and said, "No, we have to increase the speed."
Qingfeng hopped out of the coach, told the horseman to ride another horse, and he heavily whipped onto the wind demonic leopard to increase its speed.
The wind demonic leopard was initially unwilling, but Qingfeng threatened to kill it if it didn't go faster.
Under Qingfeng's threat, the wind demonic leopard had to increase its speed. It used up all its energy to charge forward as it dripped with sweat and steam.
Of course, Qingfeng didn't torture the wind demonic leopard. Before it spent all of its energy; he fed the wind demonic leopard a supreme grade elixir for it to recover its demonic essence.
After it ate the supreme grade elixir, it ran faster like a streak of whirlwind that immediately outran the Second Prince, as it led Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Li Yang forward.
The Second Prince was speechless when he saw this. He had thought that he would go with Qingfeng, but now even Qingfeng had outran him.
The Second Prince bit down on his teeth and took out a dharma treasure. It was a piece of paper, but no normal paper, as it had three large lines of spiritual flight talisman.
Flight seal was incredibly rare in the self-cultivation world and could only be made with spiritual seals. Not many people could make this, as it was known for its great speed.
The Second Prince put the spiritual seal onto the wind demonic leopard's butt, as its speed increased by several times like a ray of lightning tornado.
It ran forward no less than Qingfeng's speed, as it immediately caught up beside Qingfeng.
However, the Second Prince's ten or so men in black ran behind with their black horses.
While Qingfeng sped forward, he saw some powerful supreme and spirit emperor realm powers fly past him from above.
