Chapter 881: Chapter 866: The Transformation of the Mysterious Spirit, Sightings in the City!

[The chief seeks recommendation tickets, today’s recommendation tickets are a bit tragic!]

Several hours later, the chief of the Mountain and Sea War Division, Shan Yue, left the courtyard in a hurry, yet his eyes sparkled with excitement, clearly satisfied with the outcomes from his visit to Xuanling City.

In the Stone Courtyard, Jian Jinghong sat cross-legged beneath an ancient tree, with an iron sword lying across his knees, emitting an intense sharpness. He had not yet fully mastered the essence of Sword Dao Sharpness, thus unable to control it freely. At this moment, he resembled an unsheathed sharp sword.

Although Sword Dao Sharpness is straight and unbending, it doesn’t mean he is inflexible. Ordered by his teacher to come to Xuanling City, he brought more than ten followers. Even though they were all Heavy Tower Realm Warriors, they were insufficient for the current situation in Xuanling City, not to mention the rampaging exotic clan outside the city.

Xuanling City was a melting pot of various forces and intricate power struggles, involving many battle divisions from nearby human race territories.

Top-tier battle divisions and those of Divine Marquis were present. Perhaps the number of Heavy Tower Realm Warriors was not fewer than these forces, but in Xuanling City, which power did not number from tens to over a hundred thousand members?

Beyond that, the survivors of the exotic clan were also gathering in the Xuanling Mountains. Casually recruiting warriors from the city was likely to alarm others. Thus, gathering a tribe to pledge allegiance was much more preferable.

"Shan Chuan, once the warriors from the Mountain and Sea Tribe arrive, sweep through the weaker forces in the city, clip their wings, and with the Mountain and Sea Tribe’s warriors as the backbone, absorb the scattered rogue warriors to expand our strength," he commanded.

"Yes, young master!"

Shan Chuan respectfully responded. Being under Jian Jinghong’s command gave him significantly more authority than other followers. Of course, he understood that this was just the first step; to earn Jian Jinghong’s favor, he naturally had to successfully complete the tasks given to him.

With Jian Jinghong’s talent, and the backing of the Gu Yuan Clan, more tribes and warriors would pledge allegiance in the future. Seizing this early advantage, it was crucial to firmly grasp the opportunity.

Five days later.

In Xuanling City, the sounds of killing arose as 5,000 War Masters, of unknown origin, led by over ten Heavy Tower Realm Warriors, burst from the Desolate Wilds straight into Xuanling City, sweeping through and crushing some of the lower-ranked powers.

These minor forces represented nearby tribes, but within a day, aside from the six major ranger forces originally in the city, the rest were all obliterated, their scattered warriors swiftly absorbed and integrated by this suddenly emerged force.

By the next day, news spread that this newly appeared force was known as Sword Pavilion.

Eastern Emperor Domain.

Xiao Chen stepped onto the Void Teleportation Array from the Eastern Emperor’s Palace Void Formation Platform and, in a mere three breaths, opened his eyes only to find himself already within Eastern Emperor City.

Next, Xiao Chen felt his eyes once again insufficient; in a nutshell, Eastern Emperor City truly lived up to its name as the largest city in the Eastern Wasteland.

Descending from the Void Array Platform, Xiao Chen’s figure was quickly swallowed by the crowd, as the number of warriors here was simply too many. Around hundreds of miles of the Void Array Platforms were constantly operational, shining with silver brilliance.

They were non-stop transporting warriors in and out, warriors of all shapes and colors, all manners of exotic beasts, even dragon-kind beasts, in countless numbers, too vast to describe.

The rumbling roar!

Not far away, a thunderous noise burst out—it was a gigantic Void Teleportation Array spanning a hundred miles, with four corners topped by silver pillars thick as heavenly columns reaching into the sky, firmly anchoring the entire Void Array Platform, with a blinding silver light that eclipsed the sun.

Amidst the roaring sound, a fearsome beast head made of bronze divine material appeared, just materialized from the Void Array, still wrapped with streams of silver spatial ripples.

Soon, Xiao Chen saw the complete scene: it was a Void Battleship, accurately a transport ship carrying resources. Its huge and bulky hull, losing its streamlined shape, was piled high like small hills with various casting and spirit materials, just scattered on top of the hull.

The bulky battleship emerged from the Void Array, the entire hull shook violently, creating waves of void ripples as it rushed towards the distance.

The roar!

However, it wasn’t over yet. As the massive ship moved away, the gigantic Void Array Platform erupted again with thick silver divine brilliance and an earth-shattering roar, instantly drawing the attention of countless warriors.

Bang!

Like the sound of a heavenly drum, thick silver brilliance on the Void Array Platform stretched out an enormously huge beast foot, the sound precisely that of the beast’s foot stepping on the ground.

"Make way quickly, or else if you get crushed by old Turtle, it’s not my responsibility," a voice boomed the next moment, yet as loud as thunder.

"Move away, it’s the Turtle Head Trade Guild’s Starry Sky Giant Tortoise returning from the Central Land, everyone make sure to avoid!"

"Get out of the way, or being flattened into a meat pancake under the giant tortoise’s foot is the same as dying in vain!"

"It’s a pity that we, with our low martial arts cultivation, cannot participate in the upcoming Turtle Head trade meetings. I wonder what fine items they have brought back from the central lands this time."

"Every time the Starry Sky Giant Tortoise returns from the central lands, an internal trade meeting is held atop the Turtle Head Floating Island. Only the strong, significant figures within our Human Race attend these meetings, and perhaps even our Human Race kings are among them."

...

Soon, the warriors who had been around the Void Formation Platform began to disperse outward, and the bustling voices suddenly piqued Xiao Chen’s interest.

At that moment, the true form of the Starry Sky Giant Tortoise was revealed.

Huge!

This was the only feeling Xiao Chen had, and at the same time, the giant tortoise before his eyes was the largest exotic beast he had encountered over the years, truly resembling an Ancient Mountain.

The giant tortoise’s high head was surrounded by a hazy cloud and mist, seeming to probe into the clouds. Its massive shell, spanning ten miles in diameter, astonishingly carried an ancient city on its back.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Finally, the giant tortoise fully stepped off the Void Formation Platform, its pitch-black scale armor seeming to absorb the surrounding reflected light.

Just like that, the giant tortoise slowly moved forward. Although its movements appeared slow, each step it took covered more than ten miles.

Xiao Chen continued to gather information exchanged by the nearby warriors, deepening his understanding of the Eastern Emperor City.

This Starry Sky Giant Tortoise belonged to the supremely powerful Turtle Head King Division of the Human Race, a king-level tribe with two supreme kings seated within it, and even had two Divine Marquises among its members.

This massive Void Formation Platform was the Void Array that connected the central lands of the Human Race to the Eastern Wasteland, separated by countless miles of the Boundless Void. Even through a Void Teleportation Array, ordinary warriors still struggled to withstand the infinite pressure of the Void.

Just like Xiao Chen’s travel to the Eastern Emperor Domain, the pressure in the Void was immensely high for warriors. However, if one were aboard a specially made Void Battleship or mounted on a giant beast like this tortoise, even ordinary warriors could cross the Boundless Void and travel between the five great regions of the Human Realm.

Do not underestimate that giant tortoise. The city on its immense back has a special Formation Method that blocks the erosion of void energy, naturally, such a method requires deep resources to support.

Xiao Chen also realized that his original idea to activate the Void Array required perfection, and it might not be as simple as just obtaining Void Crystals. However, this thought flashed by and he pushed it to the back of his mind. For now, his priority was to find the Void Crystals first.

Seeing the enormity of the Starry Sky Giant Tortoise, and the myriad of exotic beasts streaking across the sky above, Xiao Chen felt much more ordinary. No wonder countless warriors from the East Desolate Land yearned for the Eastern Emperor Domain. Without reaching the Eastern Emperor Domain, one could never realize how ignorant they truly were.

Just like Xiao Chen, who initially thought Border Wasteland City was grand and ancient, but now understood the difference between Border Wasteland City and Eastern Emperor City was like that between a thatched hut and the Heavenly Palace.

Xiao Chen no longer delayed and left the Void Formation Platform, starting his journey toward Eastern Emperor City, but at the moment, he was only in the outskirts of East Emperor Outer City.

The Eastern Emperor City Palace is divided into four major parts: Outer City, Inner City, Palace City, and Floating Island. But even just the Outer City, as far as Xiao Chen’s eyes could see, seemed boundless, to say nothing of using his spiritual sense, which he did not dare use in fear of disturbing the numerous powerful beings.

The warriors from countless Human Race tribes of the East Desolate Land had congregated, and it was common knowledge that revered beings walked everywhere, and even legendary figures were spotted by Xiao Chen at the Void Formation Platform, though they were all hurriedly passing through and flying into the Void.

Roar!

At that moment, a sound akin to a dragon’s roar and a tiger’s howl echoed; a golden figure ablaze with golden dragon flames appeared—it was Little Tianma, released by Xiao Chen from the Mountain River Seal.

Feeling the environment around, Little Tianma couldn’t restrain itself and issued a roar. Although still slightly immature, its voice was like a dragon’s roar, rumbling like thunder. Its body, forged like gold, and its golden wings sparkled brilliantly, finally revealing its powerful bloodline.

"A Four-star Sky-treading Colt!"

Suddenly, this scene was witnessed by the surrounding warriors, prompting exclamations.

"Wait!"

"This is an unfully-grown Five-star Sun Chaser Colt, a naturally born Five-star dragon-type exotic beast!"

Of course, some of the stronger individuals noticed Little Tianma’s distinction; next to the four golden stars on its forehead, there was also a golden whirlpool, faintly taking the shape of a star.

But they could not know that Little Tianma was not a naturally born Five-star exotic beast, but rather had advanced its bloodline.

The next moment, Xiao Chen mounted Little Tianma, its golden wings spread out, turning into a streak of light, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from everyone’s sight, leaving many warriors behind continuously guessing which region’s warrior he was.
