The mountains rise and fall like huge waves, the rivers roll like soaring dragons, the mountains are full of colorful flowers, and the fields are full of fragrant grass.
Jiang Yuebai stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the earth, watching the white clouds, the strange peaks, and the magnificent waves, which made people feel open-minded and relaxed.
"Old man, if there are no immortals here, why have you been guarding here for twenty years?"
The old man in white paused holding the chess piece and looked towards the cliff ahead, where a sea of clouds was surging.
"Twenty years ago, I traveled all over the world, and my footprints covered three continents. I thought I had seen everything in the vast world, but I met a master on Chaotian Peak. He said that what I had seen was just a tiny part of the world."
"What happens next?" Jiang Yuebai walked over, sat down on the stone bench opposite the old man, and watched the chess game.
The old man recalled, "Then he said, the road leads to heaven, each of us walks on one side, and it only takes a thought to enter the mortal world and see the immortal."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Yuebai asked again, "Can you give me a cup of your tea?"
The old man handed the teapot to Jiang Yuebai and asked her to pour it herself.
"He wants me to jump off this cliff so that I can see the blessed land of the immortals. Otherwise, I should go down the mountain from the side path and return to the mortal world!"
Jiang Yuebai drank tea, "Why don't you jump down and give it a try? What if that person is not lying to you, but a real immortal?"
The old man glared, "Haven't I thought about it yet?"
Jiang Yuebai stood up and said, "You haven't figured it out in twenty years. You really don't have the fate of being an immortal."
Jiang Yuebai bowed and walked straight to the edge of the cliff.
The old man's heart tightened and he looked over with bright eyes.
The wind was strong in the mountains, Jiang Yuebai's hair was flying, and her clothes were fluttering. She turned around and smiled at the old man.
He stepped back and stepped into empty air.
"Little Heroine!!"
The old man opened his eyes in horror and watched Jiang Yuebai fall. He dropped the chess piece and ran quickly to the edge of the cliff.
A sword rises into the sky, and the beautiful girl rides the sword on the wind, freely traveling across the world.
The wind was blowing hard, the clouds were flying, and in the old man's violently shaken eyes, he saw the sudden change of wind and clouds, and the wonder of the fairyland suddenly appearing.
Behind the mountains and valleys, there are endless palaces in heaven, and floating waterfalls shrouded in mist, like the fairyland of Penglai, magnificent and dreamlike.
The sword-riding girl flew freely and disappeared in the rolling sea of clouds.
The old man slumped to the ground, his heart shaken beyond words. He staggered back to the chess table, grabbed the teapot and took a big gulp.
Little did they know that Jiang Yuebai had added Forget-Sorrow Powder into it.
Recalling the fairy scene just now, he suddenly felt dizzy. He stretched out his hand to grab it, but the fairy scene became more and more scattered, and the old man fainted on the ground.
After a while, the old man woke up and looked around in confusion.
"Why did I fall asleep for no reason again?"
Shaking his head, the old man stood up and returned to the chess table, continuing to sit alone, waiting for the immortal.
"There is no such thing as a fairyland in this world..."
＊
Jiang Yuebai flew on his sword for half a day before the huge city floating in the air gradually emerged from the clouds.
The golden city stretches for thousands of miles and is majestic and imposing.
The side of the city wall that Jiang Yuebai saw had nine huge dragon heads embedded in it, with water spewing out of their mouths.
The waterfall drops three thousand feet, as if the Milky Way is falling from the sky.
Water mist rose up amid the roar, adding a bit of immortal aura to Chaotianque.
The surrounding mountains are stacked one after another. Xuanxiao Danque, except for the caves of powerful monks, are the residences of some small sects and small families of Chaotianque. They are hidden in various colors of rainbow light and cannot be seen.
A bird cries.
I saw the arrogant monk sitting on the back of a majestic golden eagle and walking straight into the gate of Chaotianque Palace.
There are many such cultivators around, riding various spirit beasts and flying magical instruments, some traveling alone, some in groups, and bursts of laughter can be heard from all directions.
There was also a giant floating boat with fluttering sails and shining lights, parked outside Chaotianque like a small mountain. The three words "Bai Yang Sect" were written on the sail, making it impossible for the surrounding cultivators to avoid it.
Jiang Yuebai found the entrance to the palace and lined up in a long queue with those monks who had just entered Chaotianque, waiting to enter the city.
As she was a foundation-building cultivator, she could fly directly to the palace gate on her sword. If she were a Qi-cultivating cultivator, she could only go to the Guantian River under the Chaotian Palace, pay a spiritual stone, and board the sky-flying boat to enter the city.
The procedures for entering the city are not complicated. You just need to report your identity, pay an entry fee of one hundred low-grade spirit stones, and receive the Chaotianque token.
When Jiang Yuebai was queuing, he saw the cultivator in front of him said that he was a casual cultivator. The guarding disciple of Baiyang Sect did not ask too many questions, but took the spirit stones and let him go.
She rolled her eyes, and when it came to her, she said decisively: "A wandering cultivator in the mountains, a wanderer in a sinking boat."
Thousands of ships pass by the sunken boat, and thousands of trees bloom in front of the dead tree.
When traveling abroad this time, please use a pseudonym unless necessary.
After handing over a medium-grade spirit stone, Jiang Yuebai got the token and entered the city smoothly.
The city was not much different from the market town Jiang Yuebai had visited, except that it was more grand, prosperous and lively.
Jiang Yuebai had just walked a short distance out of the palace gate when three children, about six or seven years old, who were in the early stages of Qi training, rushed up to him.
"Senior, is this your first time in Chaotian Territory? I have a detailed map of Chaotian Territory here. Would you like to take a look?"
"Senior, whether you need to stay in a hotel or buy or sell something, there is no place in Chaotianque that I don't know. I can take you there."
"Senior, is there anything you need to know? Don't look down on me because I'm young. I know all the trivial matters of Chaotianque."
Jiang Yuebai stopped and asked the leading girl first, "Let me see the map."
The little girl quickly took out a scroll and opened a small part of it in front of Jiang Yuebai. It clearly marked the ownership of the caves in Chaotian Domain, the names of the sects, and a corner of Chaotian Palace, as well as the names of streets and shops. "
"Senior, you only need to invest a divine consciousness to mark your current location on the map, which will facilitate your way finding. My map is a fine product and only costs ten low-grade spirit stones."
Jiang Yuebai nodded, and then asked the tall and thin boy, "I want to find out about a person named Mo Baichun, whose Taoist name is Wu Chen San Ren. She is a female puppeteer with leg problems and is about the initial stage of Jin Dan cultivation. Can you find out about her?"
The tall and thin boy's eyes were bright. He nodded first, then said, "There are not as many Jindan Zhenren coming in and out of Chaotianque. As long as she has been here, I will definitely be able to find out. It will just take a few days and three... five low-grade spirit stones."
Jiang Yuebai didn't want to haggle over a few spirit stones with these kids who were trying to make a living, so he smiled and said, "Okay, take me to the Shanhai Tower first, and I'll pay you after I've exchanged the spirit stones."
After finding Shanhai Tower, Jiang Yuebai exchanged some low-grade spirit stones and asked the staff of Shanhai Tower about the various inns and cave rental shops in Xiachaotianque.
Finally, they chose an inn with a reasonable price and good security, and asked the three children to take her there.
After paying thirteen spirit stones and getting the map, Jiang Yuebai agreed with the child in charge of finding out more that he would pay the spirit stones after getting some news.
"Senior Chen Zhou, three months ago, a strange phenomenon appeared in the sky over the Ten Thousand Poison Forest, saying that an ancient cultivator's cave had appeared. Many Jindan Zhenren and foundation-building cultivators went to investigate, but there is still no news."
"If the Wu Chen San Ren you are inquiring about has also gone to the Ten Thousand Poison Forest, I am afraid I will not be able to find out about him for a while, so please be patient, senior."
"Got it. I'll pay you a low-grade spirit stone as a deposit first, and I'll be here waiting for your news within a month."
"Thank you, Senior Chen Zhou. You are the most generous and best senior we have met here."
The three children left happily, and Jiang Yuebai rented a room in the inn.
In the room, Jiang Yuebai unfolded the map of Chaotian Territory and found that the place was vast, with countless mountains and dense forests, and some small secret realms scattered everywhere.
The Ten Thousand Poison Forest that the child mentioned is the largest swamp rainforest in Chaotian Domain. It is filled with poisonous miasma and poisonous creatures. It is marked as extremely dangerous on the map, and it is recommended to enter only when you are in the middle stage of foundation building or above.
"I'll go around for a few days and wait for news from Mo Baichun. Then I'll go to Hongyan Tower to see if Master has written to me. Then I'll write to Master to let him know I'm safe. I also wonder how Anan is doing with his foundation building."
