[The city walls of Great Yan City are going to be built in front of the city gates of other cities.]
[Age 84, Chen Qianxue finally has some free time. She and Qin Jiao came to Savage Mountain together.]
“Why is it so difficult to gather the spiritual power to break through to the first level of the Golden Core stage?”
On a flying ship that was flying through the air, Qin Jiao could not help but complain, “I spent a lot of time breathing in and out the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth every day, and I even chewed on piles and piles of medicinal pills. I even went into seclusion for a long time…”
“In the end, the Dantian and meridians in my body were like a bottomless pit. It seemed that no matter how much spiritual power I poured in, I couldn’t fill it up.”
“Damn it! If this continues, when will I be able to break through to the Golden Core stage?!”
“It can’t be that I’ll only break through when I’m a hundred years old, right?”
When her words fell into the ears of the old lady, they somehow became somewhat ear-piercing.
The old lady in the simple pendant said speechlessly, “Little Doll, do you know that if these words of yours were to be spread out, who knows how many Immortal cultivators would wish to slap you to death?”
“You broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage before the age of 20, and reached the tenth level of the Foundation Establishment stage before the age of 90. When you break through, you don’t even have any bottlenecks to speak of.”
“Do you still think that your cultivation speed is slow? Do you know that breaking through to the Golden Core stage at the age of 100 is enough to shock the entire Immortal cultivation world?”
“If you break through to the Golden Core stage before the age of 100, then other Immortal cultivators would probably suspect that in the past two to three hundred years, or even four to five hundred years, they have been wasting their time.”
At this point, the old Granny added in her heart, ‘I was also a Proud Daughter of Heaven back then, but it took me 300 years to break through to the first level of the Golden Core!’
Of course… if this kind of words were to be said, it would obviously not be good, so she would not say it out loud.
She also did not know how Qin Jiao did it.
Why could she break through so quickly? Why could she ignore the bottleneck of breaking through?
In the end, she could only attribute these two doubts to Qin Jiao’s extraordinary talent!
It seemed that this was the only explanation that made sense.
Following the Granny’s words, Qin Jiao did not feel any comfort.
On the contrary, it made Qin Jiao a little anxious. She mumbled, “But if I wait a little longer, what if Chen Qianxue breaks through to the first level of the Golden Core before me? What should I do?”
Yes, that was what Qin Jiao was worried about!
It was not easy for her to surpass Chen Qianxue in the cultivation simulation this time.
What if Chen Qianxue overtook her?
“No!” Qin Jiao shook her head abruptly. Her tone was extremely firm as she said, “If Chen Qianxue overtook me, she would definitely find an opportunity to spar with me. She would definitely look for an opportunity to take revenge on me!”
“Yeah! She must be such a villain!”
“… are you sure there’s no problem with you standing next to me and speaking ill of me openly?” A voice suddenly interrupted.
Qin Jiao turned her head and saw the speechless expression on Chen Qianxue’s face.
Qin Jiao did not have any shame of being exposed.
She was very thick-skinned and did not feel embarrassed at all. She coughed and said, “This is called preparing for a rainy day and reasonably predicting the future crisis. This is also called being cautious and taking precautions in case of a crisis.”
Chen Qianxue had long been used to her thick-skinned face, so she did not continue to tangle with her.
At this moment.
A Secret Guard who was responsible for protecting Chen Qianxue suddenly stepped forward and said respectfully, “Your Highness, we have arrived at Savage Mountain!”
This Secret Guard’s words made Chen Qianxue put her attention at the bottom of the flying ship.
She stood up.
When she came to the edge of the flying ship and looked down, she saw a large piece of barren land. It was different from her impression of Savage Mountain.
Chen Qianxue was a little surprised at first, but she quickly reacted.
Back then, the Immortal cultivators of the Great Wei Dynasty had lured Daoist Blood Lotus into the Demon-sealing Formation. It was impossible for Daoist Blood Lotus to enter the Demon-sealing Formation in an instant. There had to be a path.
ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ꜰʀᴇᴇᴡᴇʙɴ(ᴏ)ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄoᴍ ᴏɴʟʏ.
In other words, they fought until the sky and earth turned dark while they lured Daoist Blood Lotus into the Demon-sealing Formation.
In this way, they had formed an endless stretch of barren land.
This was all caused by the great battle back then.
The flying ship flew very fast, and it did not take long for the barren land to disappear.
What replaced it was a towering tree.
Furthermore, when Chen Qianxue looked into the distance, she could already vaguely see the outline of a city!
“Have we arrived?!” Qin Jiao had unknowingly stood beside Chen Qianxue. She was also looking into the distance and said, “It looks like we will arrive in another five minutes. However, is that city really Great Yan City?”
Chen Qianxue said, “Even if it’s not Great Yan City, it’s still very close to Great Yan City. When Fu Shuangni built these cities, she didn’t make them too far away from each other.”
“After all, if every city was so far away, it would take a lot of time just to travel back and forth.”
The flying ship that was 10,000 meters high quickly crossed the city below.
They did not know the name of the city, but when you look at this city, it looks like it can only hold a million people.
They knew this was not Great Yan City.
The real Great Yan City is a big city that can hold millions of people.
Such a city, in the mountains, can be said to be very conspicuous.
Chen Qianxue and the others continued to fly for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Not far away, they saw an endless towering city wall!
Qin Jiao narrowed her eyes. A glimmer of light flashed in her eyes.
In her line of sight, on the endless towering city wall, a translucent barrier actually appeared!
“It’s a high-level city defense array,” Qin Jiao said. “This should be the rebuilt Great Yan City. If our flying ship barges into it, this city defense array will probably attack our flying ship on its own.”
“Then let’s go in,” Chen Qianxue said.
In fact, they were not afraid of this city defense array. After all, as the Crown Princess of the Great Wei Dynasty, how could Chen Qianxue not have a large number of guards when she went out?
Right now, there were five or six people in the Golden Core stage who were protecting her on the surface.
And the people who were secretly protecting her were not only five or six in the Golden Core stage.
There were even two Nascent Soul stage cultivators!
The emperor of the Great Wei could be said to have fully learned the lesson from the last time.
Therefore, he specially sent such a powerful camp to protect Chen Qianxue.
After all, the Crown Prince of Great Wei died because of the people protecting him. There were not enough of them, and they were not strong enough.
That was why he was killed by the ancient demon without any ability to resist.
Chen Fengyin did not want his daughter to follow in the footsteps of his eldest son.
The ancient demon had dealt a heavy blow to the upper echelons of Great Wei, it had caused the Great Wei dynasty to not recover until now.
However, Chen Fengyin still gritted his teeth and used the highest standards he could to protect his little daughter.
The flying ship landed. It attracted the attention of many people outside the city walls.
Flying ships were considered rare, but they were even rarer in Great Yan City.
The appearance of Chen Qianxue and the others naturally attracted the attention of a group of people.
Towards these gazes… Chen Qianxue ignored them.
She did not feel anything.
Qin Jiao, who was at the side, was rather interested. Her gaze kept on sizing up the surrounding crowd, sizing up a few large demonic beasts that occasionally passed by. She muttered, “How long has it been? Fu Shuangni has already developed Great Yan City this much?”
“From a glance, there are at least dozens of Immortal cultivators… although they are all at the Qi Refinement stage, to attract so many Immortal cultivators here, it can only mean that Great Yan City has its own uniqueness.”
“To be able to build such a city from scratch, and to go through a second reconstruction, it’s a pity that Fu Shuangni doesn’t want to be the Emperor!”
Her words made the eyes of the Secret Guards protecting Chen Qianxue twitch.
These words were a little rebellious.
