Dragon City at Sea

The jade boat flew swiftly over the East China Sea.

After the revival of the Immortal Dao Dragon Vein, this once extremely dangerous and vast sea area has become much safer due to the influx of martial artists from all realms. The sea monsters no longer dare to attack passing humans at will, for fear of provoking powerful figures they cannot afford to offend.

Meanwhile, the Du'e Temple, Dao Palace, and Lei Xiao Sect, which occupy the three islands, are also reshaping the maritime order. The East China Sea and the surrounding land are evolving into a large habitat; it's only a matter of time and the division of internal power.

The premise is that the Netherworld of the Departed will allow them to carve up its territory without doing anything in return.

Tang Wanzhou sat on the ship's railing, holding the Divine Snow Sword horizontally, wiping it repeatedly, then staring intently at the cold glint of its blade, her eyes filled with fighting spirit and killing intent. Suddenly she said, "I cannot cross a realm to fight against the Son of Heaven's Disciple; my Strongest Sword Strike only left a bloody mark. Qin Zhengyang's strength is not much weaker than Wenren Tinghai's."

Li Weiyi stood at the bow of the ship, glanced back at her, and knew that she must be torn between advancing and retreating at this moment. "That is the Son of Heaven's Disciple, the most outstanding genius in the world. You injured him with a single sword strike that was beyond his realm. Do you know how much of a blow he felt? Do you know how disgraced the Devil Lord of the Demon Kingdom was? Besides, how old are you, and how old is he?"

"Besides, the Deputy Sentinel Lord has given us twenty years, there's no need to rush things. This trip to Dragon City with me is like a nostalgic return, let's relax and have some fun."

She remained noncommittal and continued to observe the sword's edge from various angles.

After a while.

"I've made up my mind!"

Tang Wanzhou suddenly stood up. In the sunlight, the Divine Snow Sword gleamed, and his eyes looked down at the vast blue waves. "On this journey to Dragon City, I will surely slay Qin Zhengyang."

"This will be an unprecedented spiritual journey for me. If I succeed, my mind will be as firm as a rock, and no one can shake it. My confidence and vigor will not be interrupted here; on the contrary, my morale will be even higher, helping me break through the seven Longevity Lock with overwhelming speed and reach the other shore."

Li Weiyi looked at her beautiful profile with its distinct features. Her hair was half black and half gold in the sunlight, and her posture was very proud and beautiful.

She took a deep breath. "Don't think I'm just being stubborn. I'm genuinely more confident. Firstly, Qin Zhengyang would never expect that the Dongxu Camp, after three crushing defeats, would still dare to take such action."

"Secondly, Qin Zhengyang could not possibly be stronger than Wenren Tinghai. If I could break through Wenren Tinghai's defense with a single sword strike, I can certainly injure him as well."

"Third, I'm not going to duel him, but to assassinate him. I'll catch him off guard and kill him with a single sword strike."

"Fourth, your Immobilization Talisman is quite impressive; it actually froze Wenren Tinghai for a moment. That moment was crucial! I don't need your help, but how about giving me a talisman instead?"

Li Weiyi, who had been watching her expression, smiled and said, "Do you know? Without you, Lingxiao Shengjing would, in my eyes, be nothing more than a desolate land ravaged by war for over a decade, where people trampled each other, ate each other, and everyone was crying, struggling, suffering, and compromising. Those with ability became thieves, drifting with the tide, plundering in the chaos. Even the most responsible people were pessimistic and filled with uncertainty about the future. Because of you, I saw a vibrant spirit, the intense warmth of the sun shining on the earth, making the divine snow of the Northern Realm golden, beautiful and majestic. The snow lies on the mountaintop under the sunlight, but it never melts, standing alone in the world."

Tang Wanzhou felt that Li Weiyi was both flattering and mocking him, so he sheathed his sword and returned to Zutian: "Well said. Say the same thing in front of Zuoqiu Hongting in the future."

Li Weiyi's smile vanished. Knowing that Tang Wanzhou was making a life-or-death decision, he said seriously, "With my current mental power, the immobilization Immobilization Talisman I can create isn't powerful enough. I'll try my best to break through to the Saint Mind Master realm before the Lantern Festival and create a stronger Immobilization Talisman. If everything goes smoothly!"

Next, Tang Wanzhou propelled the jade boat, while Li Weiyi wove Time Cocoon, striving to condense the Tian Chong Soul within every minute.

She stood at the bow of the boat, her gaze growing increasingly calm, a smile appearing on her lips.

Using his Longevity Realm cultivation to propel the jade boat, he traversed 30,000 li in two days and arrived at Dragon City.

The Ancient Immortal Burial Ground, once located on the seabed, was vast, with more than three thousand miles of it rising high above the sea surface to form the largest island in the East China Sea.

This land, rising above the sea, is comparable to an ancient immortal realm. In many places, the soil possesses 30% of the spiritual essence of sacred land, surpassing even the Cloud Heaven Immortal Plain.

It can be described as "Infertile Spirit Soil".

On such a vast island, countless Medicinal Field can be cultivated, and countless sects can be established.

Li Weiyi and Tang Wanzhou were also greatly shocked when they arrived at Dragon Island, which had only been formed a few months prior. How could a space deep beneath the East China Sea have surfaced?

What kind of sacred power could accomplish this?

"Such dense Heaven and Earth Mana Qi! This place must be the core area of the revival of the Immortal Dao Dragon Vein. The Infertile Spirit Soil on the island will probably be able to nurture true spiritual soil in a thousand years, and this place will be transformed into a spiritual realm," Tang Wanzhou said.

Li Weiyi discovered that there were many ships coming and going around Dragon Island, and that many places on the island were under construction, with formations being set up and large numbers of demonic beasts or martial arts practitioners guarding them.

The two had already put away the jade boat and were driving on their way.

From afar, Li Weiyi spotted the Nine Ring Reef.

The nine islands and reefs that once barely emerged from the sea have now transformed into nine towering peaks, each ten thousand meters high, standing on the horizon like Celestial Pillar, shrouded in clouds and mist.

At the foot of the nine peaks stands a huge rock.

The sword is engraved with four large, elegant characters. "Dragon Island Crossing the Calamity."

According to past martial arts practitioners, this stele was personally inscribed and transported by the Martial Path Son of Heaven of the Du'e Temple. From then on, those nine mountain peaks became the Du'e Temple's training grounds on Dragon Island.

The Immortal Tomb, Ancient Immortal Dragon Skeleton were once buried, is now occupied by the Dao Palace, and often looks like a volcano with a depression on its mountaintop.

The martial arts practitioners of the Bright Dao Realm number in the tens of thousands, driving millions of laborers and spirits to continuously transport supplies up the mountain.

It is said that the "Dao Mother Pagoda" will be built on the foundation of the Immortal Tomb.

This is the fifth altar of the Dao Palace.

The towering city walls of Longcheng, as high as mountains, appeared on the horizon.

Countless demonic beasts are repairing the breach in the city wall day and night.

Like the Ancient Immortal Burial Ground, only a small part of Dragon City rises above the water; the majority extends into the sea. The underwater portion is where the monsters of the East Sea reside.

Urban areas on land are primarily inhabited by humans.

The soldiers guarding the city gate came from Zuoqiu Courtyard known as the Lingxiao Shengjing.

Li Weiyi handed over the Jiu Li Tribe's waist token, and they let him pass without paying any money. Moreover, he learned from them that the Dragon City Heavenly Pavilion was under construction in Thousand Mile Mountain.

Several months have passed, and although most of Longcheng is still deserted, the area closer to the city gate is beginning to show signs of life, with some streets bustling with people.

The area is primarily decorated with religious artifacts, and all kinds of shops are already open for business.

"Have you heard? The Sword Dao Imperial Court has officially entered the fray, using extraordinary methods in the northeast of Lingxiao Shengjing to restore light to three former prefectures swallowed by darkness in one fell swoop. The Xue Jian Tang Ting's army has already clashed with the undead evil spirits of those three prefectures."

"The Sword Dao Imperial Court is trying to interfere in the East Sea and meddle in the Immortal Dao Dragon Vein."

"It is said that Meng Quyi unearthed a small section of the root of a phoenix tree in an underground space somewhere in the East China Sea."

"Wenren Tinghai seems to have made a great discovery as well, heading to some underground space."

"Beneath this sea area where the Immortal Dao Dragon Vein has revived, there seem to be many opportunities, but unfortunately, it's too dangerous. Without the cultivation of the Longevity Realm, going down there is simply courting death."

Various opinions and discussions followed.

Li Weiyi and Tang Wanzhou listened as they walked.

The Dragon City Heavenly Pavilion built on Thousand Mile Mountain is a Myriad-character Artifact that was directly forged. It consists of ten halls and ten pavilions, covering a vast area, with a magnificent and resplendent appearance and a forest of dragon pillars.

At this moment, countless skilled craftsmen gathered from the Lingxiao Shengjing and Rainforest Realm are busy with interior decoration, planting spirit trees, digging lakes, and meticulously crafting every detail.

Li Weiyi gave Tang Wanzhou a look, signaling her to wait outside.

If any unforeseen circumstances arise, provide immediate assistance as a precaution.

He then strode forward, displaying the aura of Nine-Star Mind Master, and successfully met with the head of the Dragon City Heavenly Pavilion. His powerful cultivation was the key to gaining the other party's attention and served as a pass to resolve the issue.

The person in charge was also a powerful expert at the level of Nine-Star Mind Master. He had white hair and beard, and a friendly smile. He told Li Weiyi Heavenly Pavilion had not yet opened for business.

"I'm here to see Young Master Lu," Li Weiyi said.

The elderly Old Man in charge froze, scrutinizing Li Weiyi from head to toe. "May I ask how you knew that Young Master Lu was in Dragon City?"

"We made this arrangement more than three months ago," Li Weiyi said.

"So this is the distinguished guest specially invited by the Third Young Master. Please come in."

The Old Man in charge became even more respectful, bowing slightly as he led Li Weiyi into the Heavenly Pavilion. At the same time, he transmitted a thought to Lu Jingshen.

One of the ten halls and pavilions of Longcheng Heavenly Pavilion has been completed, with exotic flowers and rare herbs planted and a spirit-gathering array set up. The plants grow extremely fast and the air is fresh.

The maids who came and went were all exceptionally beautiful and graceful.

Lu Jingshen hurried over, glancing at Li Weiyi's appearance, which appeared to be in her thirties. He hesitated slightly, but once their eyes met, he immediately broke into a wide smile, "Old Xia, you may leave now. Tell the servants to bring out the best dishes and the finest wine. I'm hosting a banquet for distinguished guests."

After the Old Man in charge withdrew, Lu Jingshen and Li Weiyi embraced deeply, and then Lu Jingshen complained, "You, I've been waiting so long! I thought I wouldn't be able to deliver this Holy Spirit Pill!"

"I had some things to take care of, that's why I'm delayed!" Li Weiyi said with a smile.

Lu Jingshen chuckled cautiously in a low voice, "I didn't know until I investigated, and what I found out is quite shocking. I already know who you are, but what shocks me even more is that Yu'er has quite a background, doesn't she? Was it her doing that we were able to escape from Xie Wumian and Luo Pingdan?"

"You didn't leak this information, did you?" Li Weiyi asked.

Lu Jingshen said, "I've lived for decades, and I still can't figure this out? If I offend her, I'll never be allowed to appear in Thousand Mile Mountain Lingxiao Shengjing or the East Sea again, and no one can save my life. But if I can seize this rare opportunity, the benefits will be immeasurable. I've told one person about your matter. As for Yu'er's matter, I'll keep it all a secret. Speaking of Yu'er?"

Li Weiyi deliberately threatened, "How dare you call her that?"
