There are seventeen domains in the Immortal Gang Continent, and there are hundreds of mortal kingdoms in the thirty-nine territory. It can be said that every city in this territory is actually a country.
When there is a country, there will naturally be a monarch, and when there is a monarch... there will naturally be a prince.
It's just that compared to other countries, the 43rd city in the 39th territory, this country named Zhao, is different from other countries. Here... there is only one prince.
No matter how the years pass, no matter how the monarch changes, the prince has never changed. No matter which generation of monarchs ascends the throne, they will retain this tradition and be very polite to the prince.
Even if he is invaded by other countries and the royal bloodline is replaced, as long as he does not change the country's name on his own death and still chooses the name Zhao, then everything will remain as normal.
Therefore, there is an ancient saying circulating in these forty-three cities.
I would rather go against the royal family's authority than mess with the Situ Mansion.
This Prince's Mansion is Situ's residence. Although the area is not as large as that of the Imperial Palace, it is not much different. The interior is full of luxury with carved railings and jade, and there are many guards and even more maids.
Especially the singing and dancing girls. The prince of the mortal kingdom likes to watch dance music very much, so his number exceeds that of the guards and maids. Therefore, in this palace, beautiful women can be seen everywhere, and they are full of joy in the world.
Although the master was not here at the moment, the entire palace was still filled with laughter, singing and dancing, and the object of their dancing was none other than a young man sitting in the main hall.
This hall is like a palace, supported by ninety-nine huge dragon columns, each of which is golden in color. The dragons carved on them are lifelike, and even if you are close, you can faintly hear the roar of the dragon.
As for the ground, they are all made of top-quality immortal jade stone bricks. They are spread out, making the hall filled with immortal energy, not to mention the ninety-nine coiled dragon pillars and the light source in the mouth of the dragon head...
Those light sources are obviously orbs. These beads contain amazing aura. It is conceivable that if they were outside, any one of them would probably cause countless monks to go crazy.
But here, it's just a light source.
The entire hall looked vast and majestic. At the same time, the young man sitting at the top had a look of helplessness.
This young man was dressed in fine clothes, frowning as he sat on a luxurious meditating chair with gemstones. There were two rows of guards below him, each with a firm expression and good cultivation, with a cold and stern look in his eyes, killing decisively, but If you look carefully, you can see that they seem to be paying attention to the young man.
It seemed that as long as the young man said a word, they could draw their swords and kill him in all directions.
And between these two rows of guards, in the large palace, there are hundreds of singers and dancers dancing gracefully, and hundreds of musicians playing beautiful music. All of this makes this place the only word for luxury. , can be described.
However, no matter how moving the music and dance were, the young man's brows were always furrowed. Seeing this, the guard standing at the front turned to look at the singing and dancing girls and spoke calmly.
"Change!"
As soon as his words came out, these singing and dancing girls leaned back one after another, and then... another group came from outside like fairies descending to earth and continued to dance.
Seeing this, the young man sighed, he was Chen Qing.
After following Situ here, Situ taught him a magical power. This magical power has no name, but according to Situ, it needs to go through all the tests in the world before it can be cultivated into a positive result.
So, the test began on the second day after he arrived.
Rare wine in the world, the best food in the world, countless beauties in the world, wealth that can never be spent, and the power to decide the life or death of others with just one word.
Everything that countless people dream of is placed in front of him, waiting for him to practice...
At this moment, in his helpless practice, no one in the main hall noticed that two figures appeared at some point, a man and a woman, it was Wang Baole and Wang Yiyi.
The expressions of both of them were weird to varying degrees.
"Baole, your senior brother's practice... is a bit special."
"..." Wang Baole didn't know what to say. After thinking for a while, he reluctantly spoke.
"Senior Situ did this for some reason. Perhaps it was a test of Taoism."
"You seem envious?" Wang Yiyi asked seemingly casually.
"The clouds and smoke that pass by are all illusions." Wang Baole smiled lightly, looking past the singing and dancing girls, and looked at the young man sitting far away, his eyes showing softness.
After a while, he withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath, turned around and walked out.
"Let's go."
"Aren't you going to see me?" Wang Yiyi followed and asked.
"There will always be a time when we meet." Wang Baole smiled and walked out of the hall. Wang Yiyi also smiled, looked back at the young man sitting on the chair, turned around and left the place with Wang Baole.
And the moment they walked out of the hall, young Chen Qing suddenly raised his head and looked at the empty door of the hall. There was obviously nothing there, but for some reason, he had a vague feeling that there seemed to be something for him. A very important person is leaving now.
Wang Baole left. Accompanied by Wang Yiyi, they walked on the Xiangang Continent, went to the mountains in the far east, watched the sunrise there, and went to the sea in the far west, where they watched the sunset.
I went to the forest in the far north, where I picked a ivy called Hunlian, and I went to the plain in the far south, where I sown a flower seed called Menglao.
Finally, they returned to the starting point, which was under the first bridge in the Xiangang Continent. Here, Wang Baole wove the ivy that held the soul into a corolla and put it on Wang Yiyi's head.
"Take care of yourself, because my past, my future, is programmed with destiny in you."
Wang Yiyi was silent, staring at Wang Baole for a long time, nodded, and with Wang Baole's wave, turned and walked away into the distance. After walking for more than ten steps, she turned around and saw Wang Baole's back, sitting cross-legged and meditating.
After walking dozens of steps, looking back, it was the same.
Until she walked a hundred steps, a thousand steps, ten thousand steps... She looked back many times, until the figure in her eyes was blurred. Wang Yiyi sighed softly, touched the soul-linking ivy above her head, and gradually moved away.
Under the first bridge, Wang Baole was the only figure at the moment, sitting cross-legged. He held a jade slip in his hand, which recorded a magical power.
This method is called the Dream Way.
For monks in the third step of the realm, the method of dreaming is mysterious and difficult to understand, but for the fourth step, it is easier. As for the fifth step of cultivation, where all methods are available, practicing this way, It only takes a moment.
In an instant, Wang Baole realized clearly that a hazy feeling slowly appeared on his body, becoming unreal, as if he was sleeping, as if he had a dream.
The world of dreams is a starry sky. There is a red mist in the starry sky. There are one hundred and eight universes in the mist. One of them... is where his dream begins.
