Jiang Yuebai learned a lot about Ao Juan from Zheng Yougong. He originally wanted to go to the West Sea, but Zheng Yougong said that the area west of the Qinglong Realm was bounded by the Fulong Mountains and outsiders were not allowed to enter.
Even cultivators who want to help fight against the dragon clan cannot enter and leave freely. They must undergo identity verification by the Biyou Palace and the Fulong Sect.
And once you enter, you have to stay for at least ten years before you can apply to leave.
He also said that this rule did not exist before and was only implemented five years ago because of Yinglong.
It is said that Yinglong once brought several dragon masters, disguised as human monks, and tried to sneak through the Fulong Mountains to harm other areas of the Qinglong Realm.
It had all been successful, but fortunately, the powerful Wuchang Xingjun from the Fulong Sect was on patrol here and saw through Yinglong's disguise.
On that occasion, the God of Impermanence wanted to capture Yinglong with force, but was suppressed by the laws of the Azure Dragon Realm. He only seriously injured Yinglong, but still let it escape.
It was after that that the wars in the areas and seas west of the Fulong Mountains slightly decreased during the five years, allowing the monks of the Mulong and Mulong sects to catch their breath.
Zheng Yougong gave the map of Qinglong Realm to Jiang Yuebai. Jiang Yuebai and Lu Nanzhi checked it together. At this time, Xie Jingshan came over shamelessly.
"The land of the Azure Dragon Realm was transformed by the Great Immortal Lord with his Taoist magical powers, so it looks like a entrenched Azure Dragon. The inland sea in the middle is the Guixu Sea. The three top sects of the Azure Dragon Realm, the Zhenwu Immortal Sect, the Biyou Palace, and the Fulong Sect, are located on three sides of the Guixu Sea."
"Under the Guixu Sea is the Dragon Palace. The spiritual veins of the entire Qinglong Realm all converge here. So from the Guixu Sea outward, the concentration of spiritual energy decreases as you go outward. The spiritual energy in the four seas of southeast, northwest, and northeast is only enough for cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage to survive. I guess that Yinglong wants to lead the dragon clan to seize the Guixu Sea, so he has been trying to advance through the Fulong Mountains..."
Zheng Yougong explained that the regional divisions of the Qinglong Realm were mainly based on the living environments of the various dragon tribes. Just like the stone dragon they had just encountered, and all the dragon tribes that were good at harnessing the power of the earth, they all lived in the Jieshi Ridge in the east with Shimen City as the center.
"… Among the three major forces in the Azure Dragon Realm, the Zhenwu Immortal Sect is neutral, the Fulong Sect's forces are mainly distributed in the west, and the Biyou Palace is in the east. In fact, the battle with Yinglong was mainly fought by the Fulong Sect. The Biyou Palace has always wanted to make peace and coexist with Yinglong. This is also related to the different methods and purposes of Biyou Palace and Fulong Sect in herding dragons. You will understand after you spend more time here."
"Where is this black land?" Lu Nanzhi noticed that there was a black mountain range facing the sea northeast of Jieshi Ridge.
Zheng Yougong glanced at it and said, "The territory of the demon dragon is the Black Demon Mountain. There is demonic energy everywhere and evil spirits appear frequently. If you need anything from the ghost market, you can go there and take a look. But be careful, because there are many demon cultivators there and the demon dragons are brutal and bloodthirsty, so they are not easy to deal with."
Lu Nanzhi's eyes lit up slightly, and he exchanged a glance with Jiang Yuebai, already planning to go over and take a look.
Jiang Yuebai was wondering where to find the ghost market so that she could buy Yellow Spring Flowers and Sandu River Water. It turned out that they were available in Qinglong Realm, which was indeed a big realm.
Judging from Zheng Yougong's attitude, they don't seem to be so averse to the evil cultivators. Maybe Lu Nanzhi won't have to hide it anymore in the future.
Xie Jingshan was measuring the map with his hands, muttering to himself for a while before exclaiming, "Wow, the area of this Jieshi Ridge is almost as big as our entire Central Plains. If we want to travel all over the Qinglong Realm, it will take at least 10 to 20 years, right?"
Hearing this, Zheng Yougong glanced at Xie Jingshan, raised his chin slightly, and said with a sense of superiority as a cultivator from a great realm, "Don't worry, there are teleportation arrays everywhere in the Azure Dragon Realm. As long as you have a Star Alliance identity token, you can use it. It's very convenient."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yuebai tentatively asked, "We lost our master on the way and haven't had time to register with the Big Dipper Alliance. I wonder if we can register in the Azure Dragon Realm?"
"This..." Zheng Yougong hesitated, then looked at Jiang Yuebai's lively smile, and immediately patted his chest and said, "It's okay. I have a good brother in the Eastern Star Alliance. You rescued me, and I should repay you. I will ask him to guarantee you. As long as you have the identity certificate of your senior master, you can register."
"That's great! Brother Zheng is really a kind-hearted person who is eager to help others. I would like to thank you!"
Jiang Yuebai bowed his hands in thanks, Lu Nanzhi also nodded slightly, Zheng Yougong's cheeks turned slightly red, and he was very pleased.
Xie Jingshan rolled his eyes to the sky. Jiang Yuebai has been using these words since she was six years old, and she still doesn't know how to change them. Do you believe her lies
"We have arrived at Shimen City."
From far in the air, one can see the two main roads in the city crisscrossing and dividing Shimen City into four parts. One of the areas alone is almost as big as Kongfang City in the Earth Spirit Realm.
The dragon-shaped treasure boat landed outside Shimen City, and Jiang Yuebai and the other three followed Zheng Yougong into the city.
There were no guards at the city gate to check identities, but Jiang Yuebai could feel that there was a large formation protecting the city. Most of the cultivators coming and going were in the Foundation Establishment stage, and there were also quite a few Golden Core stage cultivators. Occasionally, one or two Nascent Soul cultivators could be seen flashing by in the crowd.
There were many shops and stalls on both sides of the road. Jiang Yuebai took a rough look and saw that most of them were rare treasures related to the dragon clan, such as dragon scales, dragon skin, dragon blood, etc. However, those were not the scales of real dragons, but the products of low-level dragons.
A female cultivator who had reached the Jindan stage riding a lion-like spirit beast walked past Jiang Yuebai and the others. Her clothes had dragon patterns on them, and she looked very majestic.
"What kind of spiritual beast is that?" Xie Jingshan asked curiously.
Zheng Yougong glanced back and said, "Suan Ni (suān ní), the fifth of the nine sons of the dragon, is a very common spiritual beast in the Azure Dragon Realm."
Jiang Yuebai also looked back. She had seen in the classics in the Dragon Palace before that a dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of them was different. She had seen the portraits of the nine sons, but it was also the first time she saw a real Suanni.
The three of them were dazzled by all the new things, and even Lu Nanzhi often couldn't help but stop at the roadside stalls to check.
"Let's find a place to stay and take our time to explore."
Jiang Yuebai pulled Lu Nanzhi and followed Zheng Yougong, and they came to the Eastern Star Alliance headquarters in the center of Shimen City. The entire headquarters covers a very large area and is protected by a powerful formation inside, so outsiders are not allowed to go deep.
The three of them waited in the outer main hall for a while, and then they saw Zheng Yougong talking to a male cultivator wearing clothes decorated with a blue dragon pattern for a long time. Finally, the man nodded.
Jiang Yuebai and the other two had identification certificates given by Wen Miao. These certificates were genuine and registering their identities was just a matter of formalities.
Once the identity token is registered, it cannot be changed. The three of them can only register with their real names and leave a spiritual mark and a photo of their appearance as required by the Eastern Star Alliance. This information is locked inside the token. Once the token is generated, no one can change the internal information. Forced changes will cause the token to break.
The Eastern Star Alliance can communicate with other star alliances. The principle is similar to that of the Hongyan Tower in the Earth Spirit Realm, except that star alliances can communicate across boundaries. The formation used involves the laws of space and is more advanced and expensive.
Even though Xie Jingshan was there, Jiang Yuebai still pulled Lu Nanzhi along, and pretended that the three of them had searched their bodies thoroughly, and were still missing a top-grade spirit stone, and reluctantly got the man to agree to leave a letter for Wen Miao.
They told Wen Miao that they were in the Qinglong Realm and everything was fine, and asked Wen Miao to find a way to get them out.
After finishing the chores, the three of them finally felt relieved.
Even though Jieshi Ridge is on the outskirts of the Qinglong Realm, the concentration of spiritual energy there has far exceeded that of the Earth Spirit Realm. The Qinglong Realm is an eternal realm, so there is no need to worry about its destruction. It has vast territory and abundant resources, and there are many opportunities.
Jiang Yuebai and the other two decided to stay here for a while to practice and travel, and when the time was right, they would find a way to infiltrate the Mulong and Long sects and then go find Ao Juan.
Jiang Yuebai had a premonition that she could only rely on Ao Juan to help her form a baby and protect the Dharma.
