Constructing a Spatial Wormhole requires the simultaneous mobilization of Dou Qi and Spatial Power. This is also the primary reason why one can only construct a Spatial Wormhole after reaching the Dou Zun realm.
Although Xiao Lin had already promoted to the Dou Zun realm, he was, after all, only a One-Star. Compared to those high-level Dou Zun, the time Xiao Lin needed to spend constructing a Spatial Wormhole now was clearly much longer.
Furthermore, this was Xiao Lin's first time constructing a Spatial Wormhole. Therefore, at the very beginning, Xiao Lin failed several times in a row. However, with the passage of time and continuous experimentation, Xiao Lin gradually grasped that specific rhythm.
Finally, under Xiao Lin's constant trials, a Spatial Wormhole—one that looked as if it could suck in one's very soul at a single glance—was successfully constructed by him.
Because it was his first time successfully constructing a Spatial Wormhole, it was clearly much cruder compared to the one Xiao Lin had seen at the Black Stone Plaza in the Imperial Capital of the Sky Serpent Empire.
To be honest, with such a Spatial Wormhole, it was believed that most people would not dare to easily enter it to try it out. Of course, the constructor of the Spatial Wormhole was an exception.
A Dou Zun was already capable of skillfully utilizing Spatial Power; even if this Spatial Wormhole looked crude, it clearly could not threaten its creator.
"Hmm, looks passable, not too bad!"
Regarding his masterpiece, Xiao Lin was still relatively satisfied.
Although people below the Dou Zun level might encounter accidents upon entering this crudely constructed Spatial Wormhole, he hadn't built it for others to use anyway!
Since he was using it himself, why have so many requirements?
Besides, if Xiao Lin wanted to construct a Spatial Wormhole to transport others in the future, he would naturally wait until his technique was more mature and his strength higher before doing so. For now, he would just make do with it himself!
So, after constructing the Spatial Wormhole, Xiao Lin did not hesitate and stepped directly into it.
By the time Xiao Lin emerged from the other end of the Spatial Wormhole, he had already appeared at the border of the Jia Ma Empire from the territory he had just left in the Black-Corner Region.
It wasn't that Xiao Lin didn't want to open the other end of the Spatial Wormhole directly inside the Jia Ma Imperial Capital, but that would be far too conspicuous, which was not something Xiao Lin wished to see.
Thus, after a moment of thought, Xiao Lin simply stepped into the Spatial Wormhole from the exit of the Black-Corner Region and arrived at the Jia Ma Empire's border.
"Is this the way a Dou Zun realm powerhouse travels? I love it! At this speed, even going to the Central Plains wouldn't take much time, right!"
Experiencing this traveling speed that surpassed flight, Xiao Lin only felt refreshed in mind and body. It had to be said that the difference between the Dou Zun realm and the Dou Zong realm was indeed difficult to put into words.
One should know that if one relied solely on flying, it would likely take a Dou Zong at least several months to fly from the Northwestern Region to the Central Plains.
Therefore, at the borders of the Northwestern Region, factions with relatively solid foundations would generally invite powerhouses of the Dou Zun level or higher from the Central Plains to help construct Spatial Wormholes.
People from the Northwestern Region who wanted to go to the Central Plains would generally use the Spatial Wormholes of these factions. Of course, this was limited to those below the Dou Zun level.
After all, once you reached the Dou Zun realm, you could construct a Spatial Wormhole leading to the Central Plains yourself; why would you need to use someone else's?
"Six years, I've finally returned! I wonder how Zhan'er, the Clan Leader, and the rest of the clansmen are doing now?" Gazing at the great border pass of the Jia Ma Empire not far away, Xiao Lin couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Afterward, Xiao Lin casually erased the Spatial Wormhole he had constructed, and he himself landed on the ground, walking step by step toward the border gate of the Jia Ma Empire.
There was naturally no need to leave behind this kind of one-time Spatial Wormhole.
If it were the kind of Spatial Wormhole that could be preserved for a long time, Xiao Lin naturally wouldn't be so casual about it. However, constructing that kind of Spatial Wormhole was not something that could be completed in a short amount of time.
Furthermore, even if Xiao Lin were to construct one, he would certainly choose a suitable location. At this time, since Xiao Lin was returning to the Jia Ma Empire, his identity naturally needed to undergo a transformation.
So, as Xiao Lin walked step by step toward the Jia Ma Empire's border gate, the starlight on his body flashed and vanished. At the same time, Xiao Lin's appearance also underwent a change.
Before long, Xiao Lin had restored his original appearance. However, compared to six years ago, he looked a tiny bit older. After all, no matter how you sliced it, he was approaching forty now. Of course, this was merely something Xiao Lin did intentionally.
In reality, Xiao Lin's true appearance had long been maintained at the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight. Everything he was doing now was merely to mask himself. In addition, Xiao Lin's Dou Qi realm, in this instant, also plummeted.
His original One-Star Dou Zun Dou Qi cultivation dropped through the levels of Dou Zong and Dou Huang in the blink of an eye, and only finally came to a stop when it reached the realm of a Four-Star Dou Wang.
"Hmm, promoting to a Four-Star Dou Wang in six years... this should be considered relatively normal within the borders of the Jia Ma Empire, right?"
Xiao Lin muttered to himself somewhat uncertainly.
However, when he thought about how Nalan Jie, who was Xiao Lin's close friend after the original plot began, seemed to only be at the realm of a four or five-star Dou Wang, the fact that he had reached it now didn't seem too outrageous.
No matter how you put it, he had been out tempering himself for so long; it wouldn't be excessive for his Dou Qi realm to be a little bit higher than Nalan Jie's, right?
With such a mood, Xiao Lin stepped back into the territory of the Jia Ma Empire.
Xiao Lin might not have much of a reputation abroad, but within the borders of the Jia Ma Empire, he was actually considered a figure of some standing.
And so, the moment Xiao Lin returned to the Jia Ma Empire, the various factions within the empire basically all obtained this news.
Of course, this was mainly because Xiao Lin did not hide his tracks, allowing him to be known by all parties. If he were willing, he could probably have returned to the Xiao Clan without anyone being able to catch a trace of him!
And the moment Xiao Lin stepped into the Jia Ma Empire, some factions that had originally developed small schemes against the Xiao Clan because Xiao Lin hadn't shown his face for six years instantly retracted all their inappropriate thoughts!
As for some of the Xiao Clan's allies, they were naturally happy about Xiao Lin's return.
Similarly, at the moment Xiao Lin returned to the Jia Ma Empire, the Xiao Clan Leader, Xiao Dongcheng, who was far away in the Imperial Capital, also received this message immediately.
"Wonderful! Ancestors protect us, they didn't let anything happen to Xiao Lin!"
And so, Clan Leader Xiao Dongcheng was already kneeling and bowing to the ancestors in the Ancestral Hall.
In this manner, starting from the moment he stepped into the border pass, Xiao Lin made no attempt to hide himself and high-profile returned to the Jia Ma Imperial Capital!
"Six years, I've finally returned!"
As he stepped into the Imperial Capital of the Jia Ma Empire, Xiao Lin couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.
