Chapter 1161: Chapter 1139: The City of Siro - Finding the Barrier!
Beneath the Ancient Mountain, two figures stood side by side, and Jian Jinghong’s voice rang out, "I’m afraid that the Daluo King Clan has already made their move!"
"What do you mean, Senior Brother?"
At this moment, Huang Xiaotian put aside his careless nature and became formal.
"Who else but the King-level Tribe could mobilize such a massive number of citizens across the Wind Fire Area to reject our Gu Yuan Tribe’s migration almost simultaneously, especially with rumors abound in the Wind Fire Area."
For a powerful warrior, crossing millions of miles of forests might not be a difficult task, but for women, children, and the elderly, it was akin to a death sentence. The hardship of the journey aside, just the dangers en route, the diseases from water, and the miasma from the earth were enough to be fatal.
Even if one managed to traverse through the millions of miles of rugged Ancient Forest, the exhaustion from sleeping exposed to the elements along the way would take a significant toll on one’s body. A moment’s inattention could drain one’s entire body.
Such rumors had arisen within the Wind Fire Area, suggesting that while one could still survive with difficulty within the Wind Fire Area, leaving it would lead to certain death elsewhere.
"Let’s go. Let’s hurry on our way to the East Region. The Daluo King Clan will definitely act if they want to annex an entire region. We’ll make plans when the time comes," Jian Jinghong said, his eyes shooting out two sword beams.
"Let’s go!"
The next moment, a sword beam pierced through the Ancient Forest, the sharp aura creating countless dense sword holes in every ancient tree within several dozen zhang.
"You lazy bear, stop sleeping and get moving!" Huang Xiaotian kicked the Dragon-Bear lying next to him, which even while prostrate was taller than him, and cursed.
...
Half a month later, a Dragon-Bear, several zhang in size, carrying two people, stepped into the Daluo Region.
The Daluo Region bordered the Feng Luo Domain, located to the northeast of it. As they truly entered the East Region, Jian Jinghong and Huang Xiaotian felt a different kind of energy.
It was a stable energy!
Unlike the chaos and bloodshed that plagued the Border Wasteland due to ongoing turmoil, this place had a sense of peace!
This was the effect of the Supreme King Tribe—where all directions were submissive, and foreign races silent!
This sensation became increasingly clear as Jian Jinghong and Huang Xiaotian ventured deeper into the Daluo Region.
"In the future, our Gu Yuan Tribe will also oversee a realm like this."
Speaking softly to himself, Huang Xiaotian’s eyes were focused, but the next moment, he reverted to his usual self.
"Senior Brother, there’s a city ahead. We’ve been on the road for several days. Why don’t we rest in the city for a while and also inquire about the news of the Daluo Region?"
"That sounds good."
After pondering for a moment, Jian Jinghong nodded. They had spent the recent days traversing through deep mountains and old forests. Now that they had entered the Daluo Region, it was natural to go to a crowded place to gather information. The big city ahead was the first city they encountered upon entering the Daluo Region.
Silaro City!
The towering city walls were smooth and had turned a bit dark due to a glaze covering them. Scars could be faintly seen, and the entire city was bustling with people converging from all directions. Different looking Exotic Beasts carrying warriors with obscure auras entered the city.
Just being on the edge of the Daluo Region, the city was already comparable to the central Border Wasteland City of the Border Wasteland Region.
The many Exotic Beasts didn’t draw much attention to the Dragon-Bear that the two of them were riding, which quickly entered the city.
"Esteemed guests, please come this way!"
In front of a Food Pavilion located at the center of the city, a young servant greeted the two men.
"Heavenly Restaurant."
Looking at the stone plaque hanging above the Food Pavilion, Jian Jinghong and Huang Xiaotian couldn’t help but ponder over the bold name choice - ’Heavenly,’ suggesting inclusiveness of all things. Such a grand name for a mere food establishment.
"Do you have a separate Food Pavilion that is still close to the outside of the building?" Huang Xiaotian asked casually.
"Of course, gentlemen, please follow me inside!"
The Food Pavilion exuded an ancient aura, the accumulation of years. It was a well-aged sign that had long lost its ostentation.
"My brother and I have been traveling the Great Wasteland, and today is our first visit to the Daluo Region. This Silaro City, however, is unlike any other establishment with such an aura, we’ve ever seen," Huang Xiaotian asked nonchalantly.
Hearing this, the proud expression appeared on the young servant’s face, who then replied, "Replying to the gentlemen, our Heavenly Restaurant was established alongside Silaro City. Back in the day, the first Lord of Silaro City, following the command of the Daluo King, came here to build the city. Due to his reluctance to part with the delicious taste of the Qiong Luo Jade Fish Feast, he founded the Heavenly Restaurant, specially bringing in Qiong Luo Fish from the Daluo Lake where the Daluo King Clan resides."
Sharing a glance, Huang Xiaotian then spoke up again, "If the Qiong Luo Fish comes from Daluo Lake, and Daluo Lake is the inner lake of the Daluo King Clan, it wouldn’t be available to common folks."
"It seems the gentlemen truly have traveled from a distant land. Who in the entire Daluo Region doesn’t know that the first Lord of Silaro City was the second legitimate son of the old Daluo King? Nowadays, the person in charge of the City is the third generation direct descendant of the Daluo King," the young servant informed them.
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Jian Jinghong spontaneously replied, "No wonder when my brother and I entered the city, we saw several extremely strong auras entering the central City Lord’s Mansion. So it was the direct descendants of the Daluo royals. It’s normal for such a presence to carry weight."
"Exactly. Even I feel like my courage is tested when I see the auras emanating from those strong ones, which have been lingering around the City Lord’s Mansion for the past two years, not sure what they’re up to," the young servant said.
The young servant spoke with trepidation, obviously having encountered Jian Jinghong who whimsically made up stories about the Strong Ones. At that moment, the servant turned his head mysteriously and whispered with a certain pride of knowing everything, "The little one heard that these Strong Ones are from the Daluo King Clan."
Upon hearing this, Jian Jinghong and his companion chuckled lightly and quickly followed the young servant into a solitary Array Stone.
...
Meanwhile, Yun Wei and Tian Fang entered the Maple Blue Domain. The Maple Blue Domain was vast. Though it was not as boundless as the Central and Southern Domain, it was still much larger than the Border Wasteland and Ten Thousand Mountains Domain combined.
The Maple Blue Domain had two Legendary Marquis Departments, the Maple Leaf Marquis Department and the Blue Ship Marquis Department.
The influence of these two clans spread over more than sixty percent of the entire Maple Blue Domain, yet they had not touched the vast lands of the northern Maple Blue Domain at all.
Thus, the many clans in the north were allowed to flourish. The clans were all baffled by this, considering the rich mines on the vast lands of the north were completely ignored.
By the side of a great riverbank, a graceful figure materialized, her white gauzy dress fluttering. She was enveloped in a profoundly mysterious aura that made her seem ethereal, as if on the clouds.
"Senior brother, continuing like this won’t do. The Northern Territory of the Maple Blue Domain is too vast, filled with perilous mountains and rivers, and many Blessed Lands. To locate the exact position of the Nine Springs Family without anyone to lead us is easier said than done."
Suddenly, misty Cloud and Mists surged, and the voice of Yun Wei sounded.
For days on end, the two had traversed the mountains and rivers of the Northern Region, and even searched among many tribes, to no avail in locating the Nine Springs Family.
Even the tribes living in these areas were unaware of the existence of the Nine Springs Family, which shows just how silent this Bloodline Family must have been.
Tian Fang’s expression was also less than pleased. Hidden Families usually lived within Small Worlds or in certain enchantments. Without finding the real entrance and exit, even if one appeared right before their eyes, it would still be difficult to detect!
"Senior Chunmu mentioned that the Nine Springs Family was founded upon nine great springs. Clearly, they should not be living in a Small World but rather within some sort of enchantment," he said.
Suddenly, Yun Wei spoke again, "Enchantments are connected to Formation Methods. This should be senior brother’s forte, right?"
"Moreover, if they are founded upon nine great springs, where the water flows, there must be a dense network of water waves and rivers. It seems we have headed in the wrong direction from the very start by searching through the mountains and forests!"
"Junior sister has a keen insight."
Hearing Yun Wei’s words, Tian Fang’s eyes sparkled intensely, and his thoughts expanded dramatically.
Over the years, Tian Fang had been integrating more and more into the Dao of Formation Methods. Ever since the Gu Yuan Clan had acquired the Formation Method inheritance brought by the descendants of the Xuan Kong Marquis Department, he had taken to it like a fish to water.
The Jade Slips of Formation Way that had been silent in the Small World for a long time were now firmly within his heart!
"This is where all rivers in the Northern Territory converge," he observed.
Several hours later, the silhouettes of the two appeared above an immense marsh, with a Mysterious Yellow Array Plate appearing in Tian Fang’s hand.
However, this Array Plate was different, for in addition to inlaid spirit crystals and Array Stones, there were also eight purple and gold nebulous stones.
These eight purple and gold stones had naturally come from Yun Wei, and their use was clear.
Suddenly!
Amid a brilliance of Mysterious Yellow light, eight streams of purple and gold energy rose, and the Array Plate returned to Tian Fang’s hand.
"There are no fluctuations from enchantments in the surroundings; the Nine Springs Family is not here," he declared with a deep voice, as he prepared to retract the Array Plate.
"Since it’s not the convergence of many water systems, it must be at the source."
Quickly, the two figures disappeared from the surface of the water, following a river that was a thousand zhang wide upstream.
Finding the source of the Great River was troublesome because there were simply too many rivers in the northern Maple Blue Domain. Even when excluding the smaller tributaries, there were still dozens to consider.
Three days later, the two appeared at the source of a great river known as the Angry Spring River. It spanned thousands of miles and was teeming with spring eyes from which clear springs surged, converging to form the great river.
In three days, they had seen this scenario countless times; it seemed as if the Northern Territory was a spring forest where the source of every river was dotted with spring eyes.
Suddenly!
As the Array Plate hovered in the air, rays of Mysterious Yellow light scattered, sending invisible waves in all directions.
Still, there was no change in the surroundings, and on the distant water, people were catching fish and Evil Beasts from atop their rafts, gazing incessantly at the two.
"Still nothing," Tian Fang said with a hint of a sigh, ready to withdraw the Array Plate.
Wait!
Yet Yun Wei suddenly cried out!
The next moment, she cast a spell, and purple and gold mist infused the Array Plate. Instantly, the eight purple and gold stones on the Array Plate shone, stimulating the plate to its utmost limit.
Thrashing!
In that instant, over the spring eyes below, the sky was filled with sparkling water waves, and an azure water curtain rose, obscuring the heavens and the earth!
