Lao Qi suddenly felt that his mind was filled with much more information, some about his master's Cave Heaven, and some about the practice of cultivation. This greatly alleviated his sadness from parting, as knowing where his master resided meant he needn't fear not seeing him again in the future.
Seeing that Lao Qi's emotions had calmed down, Lu Yu then left the Western Sea on a cloud mist. He had already delayed a great deal of time in the Western Sea, and if he lingered further, he feared he might not catch up with the monkey escaping his confines.
Calculating the time, Tang Monk estimated that he would soon arrive at Two Realms Mountain. He dared not delay at all and flew directly towards Five Elements Mountain. At these times, Lu Yu especially envied the Monkey's Somersault Cloud—comparing his own skill of riding the clouds to the Somersault Cloud felt like comparing a bicycle to a racing car, the gap was simply too large.
