In the darkness, someone whispered in the shadows.
Mechanical Taoist's Flying Boat was extremely fast. After a little over an hour, Bai Zhi and the others spotted the "Millennial Dao Sect" he had mentioned from afar.
What surprised them was that, unlike what they had imagined, what stood before them was an exceptionally prosperous city. A Fiery Azure energy barrier covered the surrounding land, while countless neon beams blazed brilliantly through the high altitude.
—This was an unprecedented Super City.
"This is... the Millennial Dao Sect?"
Looking at the Super City below, Butterfly Orchid was clearly stunned.
"Such a prosperous city..."
Previously, they had thought that the people of the Shan Hai Realm all lived in dire circumstances. But judging from what they saw now, things seemed completely different from what they had imagined.
Compared to this Super City, the Tian Qiu Valley they had visited before was like a tiny Mountain Village hidden deep in some remote mountains...
Honestly, if the others had not been standing beside her, she would have almost thought she had wandered onto the wrong set and entered some Cyberpunk-like Cultivation World.
"..."
The old Taoist glanced at her but said nothing.
Very soon, however, the Flying Boat rapidly descended. Under Butterfly Orchid's expectant gaze, it swept past the side of the Super City before coming to a stop in a nearby wilderness.
Just as Butterfly Orchid was feeling puzzled, the wilderness shook without end. Amid sky-filling yellow sand, a colossal object slowly revealed itself.
Looking down from the high altitude, they could vaguely make out that this colossal thing resembled a turtle shell. It was several thousand meters long—hard to imagine that such an enormous turtle could exist in the world.
Yet despite its massive size, it looked remarkably insignificant beside the Super City.
