That was where the dynasty’s luck gathered.
90% of the Central Continent Heaven Realm experts were in the Imperial City.
These experts were gathered in the Central Continent to condense the luck of the world.
Unlike the diffuse power of the cultivation sects in the Western Frontier, the great cultivators of the Central Continent had their own responsibilities.
There were great cultivators in the Central Continent, but they were rare. Most of them were gathered in the Imperial City, and there were not as many as he had imagined.
This made Mu Jin heave a sigh of relief.
“Let’s go,” Han Muye said calmly as he put away the fan in his hand.
At this moment, the spiritual light on his body dissipated, leaving only a faint golden aura circulating.
This trace of the Great Spirit was not dense, but it was extremely clear.
“There’s no one within a thousand miles of the Heaven and Earth Barrier. We have to travel a thousand miles and contact the guards.” Kong Chaode was familiar with the regional layout of the Central Continent.
He raised his hand, and the Great Spirit turned into a green crane.
The crane spread its wings and flew ahead.
The flying ship in Lin Shen’s hand appeared, carrying Han Muye and the others behind the green crane.
The Central Continent was vast. A county was comparable to most of the Western Frontier.
The entire Central Continent was as big as dozens of Western Frontiers!
A thousand miles later, a village with endless rows of houses indeed appeared in front of them.
The endless streets were filled with people.
The Central Continent was the Central Continent of the human race after all.
Before Han Muye and the others’ flying ship arrived, a green stream of light rose from the village below.
“This is the inquiry rune of the guards here. It’s to investigate our identities.” Kong Chaode put away the flying crane and turned to look at the great demon, Mu Jin.
Although Kong Chaode was a Confucian cultivator and passed through the Central Continent, he had offended the commander of the Mystic Sun Guards, Qian Yiming, in Heze County. He was found guilty.
If his identity was discovered, there would be trouble.
Among this group of people, the one with the official identity was Mu Jin.
The token in Mu Jin’s hand emitted a golden light that collided with the green light rising below.
The green light vibrated, then dissipated.
When the flying ship landed, there were three figures standing on the limestone square in front of them.
“Jiang Tong, the guardian of Xisai Town, greets the guardian of Green Wheat Mountain.”
The person who spoke looked to be in his sixties. He was wearing a green robe and had a faint Confucian aura circulating around him.
Elementary Scholar Realm.
Behind him, the two cultivators were both at the Earth Realm.
Although the Confucian Scholar Realm was not proficient, it was the orthodox lineage of the Central Continent.
The guard of the town did not have an official status and did not have the enhancement of the Heaven and Earth powers, but he had the protection of the treasure given by the county.
Even in the Earth Realm, as long as one wanted to cultivate in the Central Continent, they would be restricted by the Confucian Dao.
“Guardian, you’re going to the county to pay your annual tribute, right? The county governor has instructed you about this.”
Jiang Tong raised his hand and said, “Everyone, go to the town to rest first. Tomorrow, Xisai Town will send a flying ship to send you to the county city.”
Han Muye and the others did not refuse Jiang Tong’s invitation.
After all, they had just arrived in the Central Continent. It could be said that they were in the dark. It was better to be safe first.
Jiang Tong led Mu Jin and the others to the town.
Along the way, cultivators and mortals could be seen.
“Our Xisai Town is located at the edge of Shuxi county. There are forests around it. Mount Xisai is thousands of miles away and has many natural treasures.”
“Many cultivators come here to pick spiritual herbs and find mineral resources.”
Glancing at Mu Jin and the wood demons, Fey, and demonic spirits behind her, Jiang Tong said softly, “There are many demon beasts in the mountain. These cultivators also hunt them.”
Hunting demon beasts.
A complicated expression flashed across the faces of Mu Jin and the wood demons.
They were also demons and were naturally close to demonic beasts.
However, now that they had obtained the title of Central Continent, they were destined to befriend the human race.
Turning to look around, many cultivators looked at Mu Jin and the others strangely.
However, Mu Jin’s aura showed that she was a powerful demon. No one dared to provoke the low-level cultivators in this remote mountain pass.
“Guardian, don’t worry. There are also demons and humans living in the Central Continent. They get along well.”
“As long as you abide by the rules of the dynasty, everything will be fine.”
Jiang Tong, who was leading the way, turned around and smiled.
When he arrived at the guarding residence of Xisai Town, Jiang Tong instructed for a welcoming banquet and prepared a cultivation room.
At the banquet, the great demon, Mu Jin, naturally sat at the head of the table. Below, Han Muye and Kong Chaode were both refined and knowledgeable.
Although Han Muye had never been to the Central Continent, he had seen the rules of the Central Continent Confucian Dao from various swords and books.
Kong Chao’s cultivation level was much stronger than Jiang Tong’s. He had been a county clerk and was generous and appropriate.
Their behavior made Jiang Tong very curious.
There was actually such a person in the Western Frontier.
Didn’t they say that only the Central Continent had the inheritance of Confucianism?
As he toasted and served dishes, Jiang Tong indirectly asked about Han Muye and Kong Chaode’s identities.
According to the Confucian Dao rules of the Central Continent, Han Muye gave himself a single-word alias.
Kong Chaode introduced himself as Kong Rong.
Kong Rong, Kong Chaode.
According to the identity he mentioned, he was Han Muye’s follower and an inspector arranged by the family clan.
Lin Shen and Kong Chaode, who were following behind Han Muye, really looked like they were training the Young Masters.
However, Jiang Tong did not know where the Han family of the Central Continent was from.
With his limited experience as a guardian, it was normal for him not to know.
“Young Master Mu, our Mount Xisai doesn’t have any special produce. Only the spiritual heron and green perch are the most delicious.”
“Also, this peach blossom wine was brewed by the villagers in town.”
After finding out Han Muye’s identity, Jiang Tong became even more attentive.
He was even more eager to treat Han Muye than Mu Jin.
It was very simple. In his opinion, Han Muye was a disciple of a big clan in the Central Continent and cultivated the Confucian Dao. He was one of them.
Mu Jin was just a demon guarding the Green Wheat Mountain in the Western Frontier.
If not for the fact that the Heaven and Earth Barrier had shattered before the new year and spiritual energy had poured into the Western Frontier, creating the Green Wheat Mountain, such a great demon would never have the chance to see the prosperity of the Central Continent in her life.
Han Muye smiled and replied. He tasted the dishes and wine, then asked about the situation around Mount Xisai.
Jiang Tong told him everything he knew.
Xisai Town was at the edge of Shuxi County in the Central Continent. There were dozens of such streets and towns around it, and they were all under the jurisdiction of Xiyuan City.
The county magistrate of Xiyuan County, Shen Si, was a scholar of Confucianism. It was said that his cultivation was profound.
There were a total of 33 cities like Xiyuan City in Shuxi County.
“Among the cities, Jinchuan City is very prosperous.
“Young Master Mu, when you travel to Shuxi County, you must take a look at Jinchuan City, where the county’s system is located.”
Jiang Tong raised his glass as he spoke.
Of course, Han Muye would go to Jinchuan City.
That was the largest trading market in Shuxi County.
The next day, Jiang Tong prepared a 100-foot flying ship with the flag of Xisai Town on it. Then he delivered all kinds of specialties of Xisai Town, almost filling the cabin.
“It’s not worth a lot of spiritual rocks.
“Young Master Mu, it’s rare for you to come to Xisai Town.
“Please leave a copy of calligraphy treasure. In the future, my Xisai Town will benefit from Young Master’s literary influence.”
Jiang Tong smiled and waved his hand. A few maids behind him stepped forward with brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones.
The Confucian Dao of the Central Continent emphasized the pursuit of Dao and the harmony of heaven and earth. Many Confucian Daoists who traveled everywhere would leave behind literary writings when they had comprehension.
They were either poems or essays.
Those places where words were left behind could also obtain the favor of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
As the guardian, Jiang Tong would entertain all the traveling Confucian cultivators and ask them to leave behind their calligraphy treasures.
There were poems and essays engraved on the city walls of Xisai Town.
Among them, two of them were very literate and flashed with spiritual light.
Leave behind a calligraphy treasure?
Kong Chaode was stunned and prepared to step forward.
Han Muye was cultivating in the Western Frontier. Although he had the Great Spirit of Confucianism, he was not sure how much literary talent he had.
If he could not compose a good poem, it would be a small matter losing face. Losing the favor of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao would be a loss that he could not make up for.
Kong Chaode regretted not discussing more poetry with his Young Master.
“Okay.”
At this moment, Han Muye suddenly spoke, then walked forward and picked up the ink brush.
“The specialties of Xisai Town have left a deep impression on me. I’ll leave behind a few lines of poetry.”
