When Ji Yuan returned to the courtyard, it had already returned to silence, and the small characters had returned to the "Sword Intent Post". However, not all the ink on the inkstone on the table had been consumed, and there was still a trace of ink left in the inkstone pool.
"Sir, are you leaving?"
Zao Niang stood up from the table and asked this question on behalf of everyone. Ji Yuan had nothing to hide, so he gestured with the wooden sword in his hand.
"Fellow Daoist Lian is indeed very anxious. The higher-ups said that the fairy port in Yuhuai Mountain is well built. This was not mentioned last time. It's a good opportunity to go and take a look."
Before some people in the courtyard could show a disappointed expression, Ji Yuan immediately smiled.
"Yuhuai Mountain is also a nearby area. If you are interested, we can go and have a look together."
This proposal was mainly made for Zao Niang. Not only had this girl never left Ju'an Xiaoge, but Ji Yuan discovered that she really didn't even have the idea of leaving Ju'an Xiaoge. Even though it was not difficult for her to go out now, she had never done so. It was not that she didn't dare, but she really didn't have this idea.
Maybe this is the tree. Ji Yuan doesn’t object to Zao Niang staying at home, but he thinks she should move around occasionally.
Sure enough, everyone readily accepted Ji Yuan's proposal, especially Hu Yun, who was the happiest. Although he was content with his spiritual practice, he was still quite active at heart, and it would be great to have the opportunity to go out and play with Mr. Ji.
…
Yuhuai Mountain is hidden in the continuous Yucui Mountain in Jizhou, and Xiangang will naturally not be built within the Yuhuai Holy Land, but will look for a suitable peak in Yucui Mountain, and at most be closer to Yuhuai Mountain.
At noon that day, Ji Yuan and others were already strolling in the mountains.
Ji Yuan did not tell the people of Yuhuai Mountain when he would go there, only saying that he would be there soon. In fact, he took Zao Niang and others to fly to the foot of Yucui Mountain, and then found a mountain road with flowing spiritual energy to walk on.
"Sir, why don't we fly directly to Yuhuai Mountain? I heard that the scenery of Yuhuai Holy Land is very beautiful."
The young man transformed by Hu Yun asked this, but Ji Yuan was not in a hurry to answer and pointed to the front.
"Go and have a look."
The group of people were not ordinary people. They walked on the mountain path as if they were walking on flat ground. Needless to say, they were fast. They crossed the mountains and ridges easily and swiftly. After crossing a small hill, the originally dense forest became a little looser. From afar, they saw a group of people carrying large and small bags and hurrying on their way. Some were even carrying large boxes.
"Hey, in this desolate mountain, there are people traveling with their families and luggage? The further we go, the deeper into Yucui Mountain we will go, right?"
"Yeah, so it's obvious that he's not an ordinary person."
Hu Yun and Sun Yaya said something each, looked at Ji Yuan, and seeing no reaction, they walked forward together and soon caught up with the people in front.
If you look closely, you will find that the people in front of you are carrying their families and a lot of luggage, but their clothes are still clean and they are not sweating much. When they hear the movement behind them and see Ji Yuan and others coming out, they all turn their attention to them.
One of them, an old man who looked older but stood straight, put down the carrying pole in his hand, took a few steps back and bowed to Ji Yuan and others.
"We are moving to Yuling Peak. There is a letter and jade seal left by Yu Huaishan. I don't know who you are. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Ji Yuan returned the greeting lightly.
"I heard that Yu Huaishan will open a fairy port. We have some friendship with Yu Huaishan, so we came to take a look first, and then visit Yu Huaishan."
The old man suddenly perked up and bowed again.
"So it's the Immortals. Excuse me, please pay your respects to them."
"Greetings, Immortal!"
The seven or eight people, young and old, behind the old man put down what they were holding and saluted Ji Yuan and others together. Yucui Mountain is Yuhuaishan’s own garden, so it is unlikely that Ji Yuan was lying.
"We are all practitioners, there is no need to be polite. If it is convenient, would you mind if we go together?"
"Oh, I hope you don't mind me walking slowly!"
The old man smiled, returned to his original position, took out a few large pear-like fruits from the basket he had carried, and placed them in front of Ji Yuan and others.
"Please enjoy it, it's not some extraordinary spiritual fruit, but it's sweet."
After Ji Yuan and the others took the food and expressed their gratitude, the two sides continued on their journey together, chatting about the fairy ferry at Yuhuai Mountain and Yuling Peak.
"A few years ago, I heard that Yu Huai Mountain was planning to build a fairy port, and the news spread early on. Immortal Wei, who is in charge of this matter at Yu Huai Mountain, is very open-minded. As long as the well-known cultivation forces in Dazhen and its surrounding areas are notified, even though we are the voice of monsters, we have the recommendation of the Tongjiang Water God and directly obtained a jade seal, so we can go to Yuling Peak to choose a site to build a building!"
The old man's eyes sparkled as he spoke, and everyone could hear the longing in his words.
“Hehehe, it’s already extremely rare to be able to occupy a place in the Immortal Port. And now that many practitioners have spread the word, it’s a foregone conclusion that Zu Yue will be destroyed by Da Zhen. Yu Huai Immortal Port will definitely be able to benefit from the spiritual beauty of the new world!”
"Yes, Dad brought our whole family here." "I have never walked such a long way in my life. We walked tens of thousands of miles to get here. With the jade seal, the gods of various places checked and finally made it convenient."
Hu Yun looked excited.
"Is that jade seal so powerful that even the gods won't make things difficult for you if you have it? Sir, do you think that if I have that jade seal, I can go out for a walk even if I don't really transform?"
Ji Yuan smiled but said nothing, but the old man on the side interrupted with a smile.
"Yes, yes, that's true! The premise is that you haven't done anything wrong. But seeing that you have a clear and refreshing breath, you should be fine."
"Chirp..."
The little paper crane flew to Hu Yun's head and pecked him twice.
"Hey, why are you pecking me?"
Hu Yun complained and waved his hands to grab the top of his head.
"Chiu~"
The little paper crane dodged nimbly and flew to Ji Yuan's shoulder, but seeing that Ji Yuan didn't say anything, it just flapped its wings towards Hu Yun.
Sun Yaya also seemed extremely curious about the jade seal and couldn't help but speak.
"That's true. If we have this jade seal, it should be much more convenient. I want it too. Sir, what is your relationship with Yu Huaishan? If it's convenient, can you help Hu Yun get one?"
"Chirp~~~"
The little paper crane flew over Sun Yaya's head again, pecked the girl's head, and quickly flew away.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
However, the little paper crane had returned to Ji Yuan's shoulder again. Ji Yuan just smiled and shook his head. Zao Niang on the side also covered her mouth and smiled. She already knew why the little paper crane pecked Hu Yun and Sun Yaya.
Although the man in golden armor behind him saw everything, he remained silent and expressionless. He just looked a little disdainful at the so-called token and jade seal that the old man had taken out when he was showing off. Of course, he kept the same expression throughout, so others couldn't see it.
Ji Yuan knew very well why the little paper crane pecked people, but he would not write a note to Hu Yun. The little fox was now very intelligent and had calmed down. The most important thing was to let him cultivate himself peacefully and accumulate enough skills. If Ji Yuan wrote a note, given Hu Yun's personality, he would definitely not be able to resist wandering around.
It gets dark quickly in the mountains. The further you go in, the more "people" you encounter in the mountains. Some are like the old man walking with their luggage, some are like floating immortals, and some have no human form at all. Of course, there are also serious cultivators, most of whom are independent cultivators or families that have some relationship with Yu Huaishan.
These people have one thing in common, that is, almost all of them have the jade seal issued by Yu Huaishan. Even if they don't know each other, most of them will travel together after saying hello. For those who can reap the first wave of dividends from Xiangang, everyone is very happy.
This is not only about material benefits, but more importantly, it is a chance to broaden one's affinity with the immortal path. The blessings on the path of cultivation can be increased, and sometimes it just depends on whether one can seize the opportunity.
"Lie—"
A crane's cry was heard in the sky, and everyone became alert. The crane's cry had a strong penetrating power, and one could tell at the first glance that it was not an ordinary creature. Ji Yuan and the others also understood that it must be the magical crane from Yu Huai Mountain.
"Yuling Peak is 20 miles north of here. There is a thick fog. You must hold the Jade Seal and walk along it. The number of people you can protect is limited to those listed in the Jade Seal!"
The crane circled in the air for a few times, and after transmitting the message, it flew away into the distance. It was obvious that it also needed to transmit the message in other directions.
Regardless of whether the travelers in the mountains below were sincere or not, they all bowed slightly towards the sky before continuing on their way. Sure enough, after more than ten miles, a thin mist had already appeared in the mountains, and the fog became thicker and thicker afterwards.
"My Immortal, you don't have a jade seal, uh..."
The old man at the beginning turned around and wanted to say something to Ji Yuan and others, but found that Ji Yuan and others were no longer around.
Behind the thick fog, Wei Wuwei followed Ji Yuan respectfully.
"Sir, you didn't inform me of your coming today. I have to prepare early."
"No, we just came here to take a look, and then we have to go to Yuhuai Holy Land."
"Yes, sir, there are a few more. The Yuling Peak is in front. It is not the original peak of Yucui Mountain, but it was formed by the immortal in the mountain who used his great magic power to merge the five mountains into one. Please take a look, sir."
At this moment, a group of people passed through the fog, and a huge mountain appeared before their eyes. It was the Yuling Peak of Xiangang. The mountain was covered with clouds and looked majestic and mysterious. A huge monster with fins lay across the top of the mountain, looming in the clouds.
“Mmmmm~~~~~~~~~~”
The loud cries were heard, causing the surrounding clouds and mist to roll slightly.
"Weimeishi Sect, the Heaven-Devouring Beast? This fairy port hasn't even been fully built yet, but there are already ferries coming?"
Wei Wuwei had a smile on his fat face.
"Sir, it's not that we have business so soon. This Sky Devouring Beast is waiting for you. The Tianji Pavilion is so respectful that it has borrowed the most famous boundary ferry to wait for you here."
'My train?'
Ji Yuan was stunned for a moment.
