The journey back to the Zhong clan was relatively uneventful. Although it had taken Shun Long and the rest almost three months to cross the ocean, there weren't any powerful magic beasts that blocked their way.
Even the strongest beast they encountered had only been a middle rank 6 magic beast that resembled a mix between a shark and a snail, which Liu Mei ended up effortlessly disposing of before they continued.
In fact, the only difficulty they faced on the way back was Shun Long running out of energy after opening more than a dozen space rifts in a day.
Even though the reserves of his 'Monarch's Eternal body' were far beyond any other peak sixth-stage body refiner, they weren't endless either. Considering how much energy his space rifts required, even Shun Long had to rest for a while before he continued.
