After a few hours, the patriarch of the Mountain Sea Army, Shan Yue, left the courtyard. He seemed to be in a hurry, but there was a hint of excitement in his eyes. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with the results of this trip to Xuanling City.
In the stone courtyard, Jian Jinghong sat cross-legged under an ancient tree. The iron sword was placed horizontally in front of his knees. There was a sharp aura emanating from his body. He had not fully comprehended the sharpness of the way of the sword, so he could not control it freely. At this moment, he was like an unsheathed sword.
Although the sharpness of the way of the sword was better to be straight than to bend, it did not mean that he did not know how to be flexible. He had come to Xuanling City under the orders of his master. Although they were all Heaven Building Realm warriors, they were still not enough to deal with the current situation of Xuanling City, not to mention the foreign races that were wreaking havoc outside the city.
Xuanling City was a mix of good and bad people. The forces were intertwined, and many army divisions from the nearby human territories were involved.
There were high-rank army divisions and Marquis Army divisions. Perhaps the number of Heaven Building Realm warriors was not less than these forces, but which force in Xuanling City did not have tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people?
In addition, the remnants of the foreign races were also gathering in the Xuanling Mountain Range. If they rashly took in too many warriors from the city, it would be easy to alert the enemy. Therefore, it was better to take in a tribe.
"Shan Chuan, when the warriors of the Mountain Sea Tribe arrive, wipe out the weaker forces in the city and cut off their wings. With the warriors of the Mountain Sea Tribe as the backbone, we will take in the scattered warriors to expand our strength."
"Yes, Young Master!"
Shan Chuan replied respectfully. Now that the Mountain and Sea Army had joined Jian Jinghong's faction, his authority was much greater than that of his other followers. Of course, he also understood that this was only the first step. If he wanted to gain Jian Jinghong's attention, he would have to complete the mission he had given him.
With Jian Jinghong's talent and the Gu Yuan Tribe behind him, there would be more tribes and warriors who would submit to him in the future. Now that he had the upper hand, he naturally had to make good use of it.
Five days later.
In Xuanling City, there were sounds of battle. Five thousand combat masters of unknown origin directly killed their way into Xuanling City. Under the leadership of more than ten Heaven Floor Realm martial artists, they defeated some of the lower ranked forces in Xuanling City.
Behind these small forces were some nearby tribes. However, within a day, apart from the six great forces of Wanderers in the city, the rest were all wiped out. The scattered warriors were quickly absorbed by this force that had suddenly appeared.
It wasn't until the next day that news finally came out that the power that had suddenly appeared was called the Sword Pavilion.
Eastern Emperor Region.
Xiao Chen stepped onto the Void-shifting Matrix from the Void Matrix of Emperor Dong's Palace to the Void-shifting Matrix of East Royal Palace. It only took him three breaths to open his eyes, and he was already in East Royal Palace.
Then, Xiao Chen felt that his eyes were not enough to see everything. In short, East Royal Palace was worthy of its name, the largest city in the Eastern Barren Territory.
Walking down from the Void Matrix, Xiao Chen's figure was drowned in the crowd. Because there were so many warriors here, the Void Matrix of a hundred miles around was constantly operating, shining with silver light.
There were all sorts of cultivators and mutated beasts. There were even dragon-type mutated beasts and Desolate Wasteland mutated beasts. There were so many of them that it was hard to describe.
Rumble!
Not far away, there was a roar. It was a huge Void Teleportation Matrix, about a hundred miles in size. On its four corners, there was a silver base that was as thick as the pillars of the sky, rising into the sky and firmly holding the entire Void Matrix in place. The silver light shone all over the sky, blocking out the sun.
In the roar, the head of a ferocious and terrifying Exotic Beast appeared. The head was made of bronze and had just appeared in the Void Matrix, with silver space ripples twining around it.
Soon, Xiao Chen saw the whole scene. It was a Void Battleship. To be precise, it was a ship used to transport resources. The huge and bloated body of the ship had lost its streamlined shape, but it was piled with all kinds of casting materials and spiritual materials, scattered on the body of the ship.
The bloated battleship came out of the Void Matrix, and the whole body shook violently, creating ripples in the Void as it swept into the distance.
Roar!
However, all of this was not over. When the huge warship left, the huge array platform in the void once again exploded with a dense silver light. There was also a deafening roar that immediately attracted the attention of countless cultivators.
Dong!
Like the sound of a heavenly drum, above the void platform, amidst the rich silver brilliance, an incomparably huge beast foot stretched out. The sound of the heavenly drum was precisely produced by this beast foot stomping on the ground.
"Get out of the way. Otherwise, I won't be responsible if I, this old tortoise, trample on you." In the next moment, a low and muffled voice rang out. However, the voice was still like thunder.
"Hurry up and leave, the Giant Tortoise of the Vanguard Chamber of Commerce has returned from the Middle Earth, you must avoid it!"
"Get out of the way! Otherwise, you'll die for nothing if you become a meat patty under the giant tortoise's feet!"
"I wonder what kind of good things the Champion Chamber of Commerce has brought back from the Central Plains. It's a pity that our martial arts cultivation is not high enough, so we can't participate in the following trade fair."
"Every time the giant space turtle returns from the Middle Earth, the Turtle Head Floating Island will hold an internal trading fair. Those who can participate are all powerful beings, important figures of the human race. Maybe even kings of the human race will participate."
…
Soon, the cultivators around the Void Platform began to disperse, and the noise immediately aroused Xiao Chen's interest.
At this moment, the Giant Galactic Tortoise revealed its true appearance.
Big!
This was the only feeling that Xiao Chen had. Similarly, the giant tortoise in front of him was the largest beast Xiao Chen had seen in all these years. This was the true size of an ancient mountain.
The giant tortoise's tall head was surrounded by hazy clouds, and it could be said to have reached into the clouds. The giant tortoise's shell was ten miles wide, and on its back was an ancient city.
Dong!
Dong!
Dong!
Finally, the giant tortoise stepped out of the Void Platform. Its pitch-black scales seemed to be able to absorb the surrounding light.
Just like that, the giant tortoise slowly stepped forward. However, the giant tortoise's body was just too big. Even though it seemed to be moving slowly, each step it took covered over ten miles.
Xiao Chen constantly understood the information exchanged by the surrounding cultivators, deepening his understanding of the East Imperial Kingdom.
This Giant Galactic Tortoise belonged to the supreme Turtle Head King Tribe of the human race. It was an extremely powerful king tribe of the human race, with two supreme kings presiding over it. There were even two Titled Marquis in the tribe.
And this huge Void Platform was connected to the Void Grand Array of the human race's Middle Earth. The Middle Earth and the East Wilderness were separated by hundreds of millions of miles of void. Even through the Void Grand Array, ordinary cultivators would still find it difficult to withstand the endless void pressure.
Just like when Xiao Chen was teleported to the East Imperial Domain, the void pressure was too great for cultivators. However, if they rode a special void warship or rode a giant beast like the giant tortoise, even ordinary cultivators could cross the endless void and travel between the five major regions of the human world.
The giant tortoise shouldn't be underestimated. The city on the back of this giant tortoise had a special formation that could isolate the void energy from the erosion. Naturally, such a method required the support of a strong foundation.
At the same time, Xiao Chen also understood that his original idea of opening the Void Grand Array still needed to be perfected. Perhaps it wasn't as simple as obtaining the Void Crystals. However, this thought flashed past his mind and he quickly threw it to the back of his mind. The most important thing now was to find the Void Crystals.
When Xiao Chen saw how huge the Starry Sky Tortoise was, he calmed down a lot when he saw the densely packed mutated beasts in the surrounding sky. No wonder countless cultivators in the Eastern Wasteland yearned for the Eastern Royal Region. Without reaching the Eastern Royal Region, there was no way to know how ignorant they were.
Just like Xiao Chen, he originally thought that the desolate border city was grand and ancient enough. However, at this moment, he understood that the difference between the desolate border city and the East Imperial Domain was like the difference between a thatched cottage and a heavenly palace.
And Xiao Chen didn't delay any longer. He left the void formation platform and began to move towards the East Imperial Domain. However, at this moment, he was just in the outer city of the East Imperial Domain.
The East Imperial Palace was divided into four parts: the outer city, the inner city, the palace city, and the floating island. However, it was only the outer city. Xiao Chen couldn't see the end of it with his naked eyes. As for the spirit perception, he didn't dare to use it. He was afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble because there were too many experts.
Countless cultivators from the East Wilderness had gathered here. Experts were everywhere. Venerables were everywhere. There were even Legendary experts. Xiao Chen found a few of them in the void formation platform. However, they were all in a hurry and flew away from the void formation platform.
Roar!
At this moment, a sound that sounded like a dragon's roar and a tiger's roar resounded. A golden figure was covered with golden dragon flames. It was the young celestial horse. It was released from the Seal of Mountains and Rivers by Xiao Chen.
Feeling the surrounding environment, the young celestial horse couldn't help but let out a roar. Although it was still a little immature, its roar sounded like a dragon's roar. Its body seemed to be made of gold. The golden wings on its back shone brightly. It had finally revealed its powerful bloodline.
"Four Star Sky Stepping Horse!"
When the surrounding cultivators saw this scene, they cried out in surprise.
"Wait!"
"This is a Five Star Sky Chasing Horse that hasn't fully matured yet. It's an innate Five Star Sky Chasing Horse!"
Of course, there were also experts who noticed that the young celestial horse was different. Next to the four golden stars on its forehead, there was a golden vortex that seemed to be condensing into the shape of a star.
However, they didn't know that the young celestial horse wasn't an innate Five Star Sky Chasing Horse. Instead, it was an evolution of its bloodline.
The next moment, Xiao Chen jumped on the young celestial horse. He spread his golden wings and turned into a beam of light. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone's sight. Many cultivators kept guessing which region this young celestial horse was from.
