Three years later, a few ships anchored at the port of Six Blessings Island.
When Zhang Liang saw the young man and guards disembarking, he quickly bowed, "Your Highness."
"No need to be so courteous, Mister."
Liu Heng helped Zhang Liang up, "You are an enlightened immortal, no need to bow to me."
Zhang Liang smiled, "You are the son of Great Ancestor, you should receive my greetings."
Liu Heng was a prince from the Toad Continent. The purpose of his trip was to welcome the Hundred Herb Classic.
After many years, the Hundred Herb Classic was completed. The South Toad Continent immediately sent Liu Heng to welcome the Hundred Herb Classic.
The Hundred Herb Classic was a medical book of great significance. Lv Zhi hoped to win the hearts of the people by sending someone to welcome the Hundred Herb Classic.
"Empress Lv wanted to come personally, but the journey was too long, so she ordered me to come."
Liu Heng said to Zhang Liang.
Zhang Liang knew why Lv Zhi sent Liu Heng over.
When Great Ancestor destroyed the Wei Palace, Liu Heng was born by chance.
This Prince had always been estranged from the court and had no ambition. His mother was also a simple and kind person. Both mother and son would not be a threat to Empress Lv.
Empress Lv sent Liu Heng for the Hundred Herb Classic to show her respect to the Monkey King and also to show that Liu Heng could not threaten her.
"Mister, has the Monkey King agreed to see me?"
Liu Heng asked Zhang Liang.
They had come in a rush and it was all Lv Zhi's idea. They did not inform the Monkey King in advance, so Liu Heng was not sure if they would succeed.
Zhang Liang couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, the King is polite. Since you are here, why would he not see you?"
Liu Heng was overjoyed.
Zhang Liang continued, "But you have to come with me first. You can go after the King is done with the guests."
Liu Heng immediately remembered that there were a few ships with dragon flags at the port.
"Other countries have come to learn from the Hundred Herb Classic?"
Liu Heng asked. He did not expect someone to do the same thing as Lv Zhi.
"There are many more."
Zhang Liang smiled. "More than a dozen countries in the four continents have sent people to learn from us."
Liu Heng's eyes widened in shock. Zhang Liang continued, "But you guys came early, so you're the second."
Liu Heng immediately relaxed. "Who was the first?"
"King Ao Lai."
Zhang Liang took Liu Heng on a tour of Six Blessings Island while explaining to him.
Ao Lai had a close relationship with Mount Huaguo. The King even regarded the Monkey King as his teacher. When the news of the Book of Herbs was spread, he led a team over.
Liu Heng was amazed.
He toured the Six Blessings Island with Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang brought him to the bustling places, which was too much for Liu Heng to take in.
"The Flowerfruit Mountain is indeed a land of treasures."
Liu Heng thought to himself that the scene he saw was even more prosperous than Chang 'an.
Human-shaped monsters filled the streets. They were well-dressed and their expressions were lively.
The streets here surprised him even more. They were very clean. No one cast any spells, and the brooms would avoid pedestrians, sweeping the streets clean.
There were also two rows of lanterns floating neatly above the streets, not obstructing pedestrians. According to Zhang Liang, these lanterns would light up at night, brightly decorating the entire Six Blessings Island.
After all, Liu Heng had heard of them before. However, he also saw many spirit items that he had never heard of before.
What shocked him the most was that some human children were flying around on the rooftops.
"Are those humans?"
Liu Heng pointed at the children and asked.
Zhang Liang looked up. These children didn't have the characteristics of monsters. They were obviously humans. There were some human craftsmen living in Mount Huaguo, so their children naturally grew up here.
"They are humans."
Zhang Liang waved his hand and pulled the children to the ground.
"This is the market. Don't play around. Be careful that the Bear Demon King takes you away."
Zhang Liang warned in a deep voice. The children immediately ran away in panic.
Liu Heng was dumbfounded. "Sir, they are all mortals. How can they fly?"
"They wear Sky Clothes."
Zhang Liang replied. "The Flowerfruit Mountain wants to build a floating city. In order to adapt to life above, the weavers weaved floating talismans on their clothes and called them Sky Clothes."
These Sky Clothes weren't mature yet, but they could already be used on children.
The technology of Mount Huaguo had improved rapidly in recent years. Some spiritual objects were hidden very well and could no longer be seen from the outside.
Liu Heng was surprised. "Why haven't I heard of such magical clothes outside?"
Zhang Liang smiled and shook his head. "Your Highness, did you notice anything strange when you came to Mount Huaguo?"
"Strange?"
Liu Heng thought for a moment. "Speaking of which, the air here seems different."
"That's Spiritual Qi."
Zhang Liang replied. He knew that Liu Heng had learned some Daoist techniques to strengthen his body. He could definitely feel the Spiritual Qi of Mount Huaguo.
After three years of accumulation, the Spiritual Qi of Mount Huaguo had become much thicker. It could support some phenomena that couldn't be done in the past.
"Sky Clothes can only be used in Mount Huaguo."
Zhang Liang said, "It's useless once it leaves Mount Huaguo. Of course, no one will buy it back."
The monsters of Mount Huaguo became more and more aware that the Spiritual Nexus was a treasure.
Monkey King defined it as a basic facility, and it had indeed achieved that effect. With the help of the Spiritual Nexus, the monsters could create spiritual objects at will.
The Spiritual Nexus brought endless possibilities. Even the capital was no longer a dream. It was a goal that could be achieved. All the monsters worked hard to create the capital and let Monkey King praise them.
Liu Heng was filled with emotions. "If only we humans had such technology."
Zhang Liang shook his head. It was impossible. The Spiritual Nexus and technology of Mount Huaguo were all created by Monkey King. Without him, there would be no Mount Huaguo.
However, it was impossible to find someone like Sun Wukong in the entire Three Realms.
"Your Highness."
Zhang Liang's ears twitched. He heard the summons.
He said to Liu Heng, "King Ao Lai has left the Water Curtain Cave. His Majesty asked me to take you there."
"Okay."
Liu Heng adjusted his clothes.
He took the guards and followed Zhang Liang out of Everlasting Blessing Island and into the territory of Mount Huaguo.
As soon as they entered the territory, the surrounding environment immediately became beautiful. It was completely different from Six Blessings Island.
Liu Heng enjoyed the beautiful scenery. He was more and more curious about Monkey King.
"Why didn't Monkey King build a city here?"
He was about to ask Zhang Liang when he suddenly heard the cry of a phoenix. He looked up and was shocked.
A phoenix pulling a carriage suddenly flew across the sky, leaving behind only two glowing wheel imprints. It was brilliant and incomparably gorgeous.
"What is that?"
Liu Heng asked.
Why was there a monk's portrait hanging behind the carriage?
"Elder Golden Cicada must have lost his way."
Zhang Liang stroked his beard and sighed. "Zhen Yuan Daisen is looking for him."
That Golden Cicada was famous for having no sense of direction. When he traveled around Mount Huaguo, he would always get lost.
