C405 Arriving at Gold Tripod City
Although Song Zhiyuan, Yi Baixu, and Menluo were all Sect Master s on this trip, Zhang Hanyue had relied on his late stage Comprehension of the Dao cultivation to become the boss of this group of people. Regarding this matter, the three Sect Master s seemed to be very willing to accept it, and their hearts were not dissatisfied.
After all, this was a world where the strong were respected. Although Zhang Hanyue only had the identity of a Grand Elder, his cultivation was the strongest amongst this group.
"Everyone should be very curious. Why can't we fly in that area? And even if we are, we have to follow the established route. The requirements are very strict. Do you know why?" Zhang Hanyue smiled slightly, and asked the twelve disciples of the four sects amiably.
"I don't know!"
"I don't understand!"
"I don't understand."
All of the disciples replied in unison. All of them shook their heads like drums, unable to see through this matter.
When Zhang Hanyue saw it, the smile on his face immediately became wider, and then, as the image of an elder, he began to preach to everyone: "That area, is the teleportation location specially set by Chu Xiong Nation, and is the gateway for other countries in the South Vietnam to enter and exit Chu Xiong Nation.
Because the Chu Xiong Gate gathered ten super Teleportation Arrays, due to the power being transferred out, the space in that area became completely different from other places. When all the Teleportation Arrays were activated, there would often be huge vortexes that twisted space.
It was said that tens of thousands of years ago, the Chu Xiong Gate was just established at the beginning of its existence. At that time, the matter of the space-time distortion would cause a whirlpool to form, and before anyone noticed it, a lot of cultivators were swallowed up by the space-time vortex, and in the end, all of them died without a trace.
Later on, this problem gradually attracted everyone's attention, so the largest sect in Chu, and also the only sect - the Golden Cauldron Divine Sect, under the leadership of the first Sect Master, Golden Cicada, carried out repeated inspections of this area, but in the end, they could not find the source of the spatial and temporal whirlpool that caused the distortion.
However, they discovered that as long as they didn't fly in this area, as long as they walked on the ground, everything would be fine. However, later on, in order to make it convenient for the various countries of South Vietnam to participate in the trial, the Golden Cauldron Divine Sect had also built a special flying tunnel for the magical equipment in this teleportation circle known as Chu Xiong's Gate.
This is a void tunnel constructed with great magic power. Currently, you cannot see the ground at all. This is also the reason why those magic tools have to fly along the established route. "
So that was the case. When everyone heard it, they understood everything and felt that the feeling in Chu Xiong's heart became even more mysterious.
"This Chu Xiong Country doesn't have any royal power or sects, so there are no complicated and chaotic situation. The Golden Cauldron Divine Sect is the only sect in the entire country, and the cultivators with a golden cauldron on their chest are the disciples of their sect!" Zhang Hanyue explained once again carefully for everyone, allowing the group of disciples to gradually have a better understanding of Chu Xiong Nation through his introductions.
After that, the disciples looked at the beautiful scenery of the wasteland below while digesting some of their own words, Zhang Hanyue once again said: "It's still about half a day's journey to the Gold Tripod City here, and the distance to the trial grounds this time is getting closer. Once inside the city, I'm afraid that there won't be such a quiet environment anymore, so this old man has to inform the disciples who are sitting here participating in the trial in advance."
When Zhang Hanyue's words fell, the other elders also nodded their heads in agreement. Their opinions were of the highest order, and as soon as Lei Yang saw them, he immediately understood that these few old fellows had obviously discussed this matter in advance.
Then, Zhang Hanyue continued, "No matter what, we are all friends now that we are out of Qi. To tell you guys the truth, the difficulty of this South Vietnam's Ascendant tournament probably far surpasses your imagination.
As the proverb goes, "At home, we rely on our parents and friends. Although you are from different sects in the Qi, this time, your goals are the same, so as seniors in the sect, I hope that you can meet each other on the road of trials. We hope that you will help each other out and take care of each other, because only then will you be able to walk further on the road of trials and realize your grand dream of entering the top hundred!"
Most probably because of Zhang Hanyue's words, causing everyone to feel a little pressured, the entire atmosphere in the Cloud Boat suddenly became quiet.
However, how could the astute and scheming old men from the Comprehension of the Dao not see through them? Obviously, they had done this on purpose, to let them feel some pressure, and then give them some encouragement, their goal was to make all the disciples be careful, and not act rashly. Lei Yang saw through their plans with just a glance, and thought this in his heart.
Sure enough, after a short while, Zhang Hanyue waved his hand, and twelve finely crafted jade strips instantly flew out from his sleeves. He then unerringly flew in front of the twelve disciples, and said in a clear voice: "Of course, everyone does not need to be too anxious, that trial's path is actually a vast and boundless Secret Realm, named middle boundary of cauldron.
In this jade slip, there are a lot of records and introductions about the middle boundary of cauldron that my four sects have participated in before. These experiences are all very precious, real and reliable, and can be considered your bargaining chips.
"You must remember that during this period of time, the sea is relatively quiet. You must carefully digest the information recorded in this jade slip. Although the journey of the trial is filled with danger and challenges, if you are careful, you should be able to make it out alive."
Zhang Hanyue's words were relatively peaceful in the beginning, but when he finished speaking the last sentence, all the disciples on the Cloud Boat immediately went into an uproar.
"What does that mean? What do you mean, we can walk out of here alive? Don't tell me that a trial's road can lead us to safety?"
"That's right, why didn't the elders tell us?"
"?"
Regarding Zhang Hanyue's words, the disciples were all discussing and in the end, all looked at him with eager eyes, hoping that he would give a clear answer.
But the three Sect Master s and the two elders probably felt that the pressure was enough, so they did not continue with this topic. Instead, they let Azure Snow Sect Yi Baixu say, "Mn, that's right, besides recording the use of the content in this jade slip, it also has a special function, and that is to sense your comrades within a thousand miles radius of you. Furthermore, you can sound transmit and ask for help within this range, so when you enter, you must help each other.
"I'll remember it!" All the disciples answered in unison. At this moment, because of the introduction given by the elders, it seemed that the South Vietnam was fighting for the chance to get a trial, and the formless smell of blood was becoming denser and denser.
"Alright, let's use this time to see the contents of the jade slip. This can be considered preparing in advance!" After Zhang Hanyue finished speaking, the Cloud Boat quietened down once again, and all the disciples began to carefully read the contents of the jade strips.
Half a day passed in a flash in this silence. It was only when dusk was about to fall and a vast and boundless city appeared on the ground in front of the Cloud Boat that shocked gasps could be heard once again from atop the Cloud Boat.
Leaning on the edge of the Cloud Boat, Lei Yang withdrew himself from the contents of the jade scroll and looked down. That astonishing city that was as vast as a sea of smoke instantly entered his eyes.
Whether it was in depth or horizontally, one could not see the end of the city at a glance, even the largest city in the Qi, Fengdu, did not even reach a tenth of the city. At this moment, under the illumination of the setting sun, the entire city seemed to be dazzling in gold and jade, with a majestic aura, looking extraordinary.
