Cloud Soaring Flying Boat
Above the clouds, the enormous ship slowly turned its bow, left the port, and sailed into the sea of clouds. As it did so, the sides of the ship opened, and three pairs of horizontal sails slowly extended out, as if the ship had grown six wings, which were gently flapping in the Cloud Top.
Although it appeared slow, the ship moved incredibly fast Runes surrounding its hull. It broke the sound barrier, and its wooden hull carved a clear path through the sea of clouds.
"Finally, we're on board."
Leaning against a railing on the deck of the ship, Li Jinyao let out a long sigh.
"I swear, even within the most stingy Demon Sect in the Demonic Sect Alliance, I've never seen three toll booths set up on a one-kilometer stretch of road."
"I never imagined Immortals could be so greedy."
Tang Ruowei echoed this sentiment.
At this moment, an Old Man with white hair and a youthful face, dressed in the standard robes of a crew member on Cloud Soaring Flying Boat from the Eastern Immortal Realm, suddenly approached and asked Bai Qiuran and the other two, "Where are the three of you headed?"
"We're going to the Seventh Heaven, the Yang Heaven."
Bai Qiuran replied.
"Oh."
The Old Man nodded, and a shrewish smile suddenly appeared on his face. His eyelids twitched together and curved upwards, his mouth stretched wide, and his features were all squeezed together, making him look like a weasel that had spotted a chicken.
"Three people, a discount of 300 coins."
"That's not right."
Tang Ruowei pointed in the direction she came from and said, "I clearly saw that the sign on the platform said seventy per person... umm."
Bai Qiuran reached out and covered her mouth, then took out three hundred Immortal Realm Coin from her pocket and threw them to the Old Man.
"Sir, ignore her, here's the money."
"You've got some good taste, kid."
After receiving the money, the Old Man glanced at it briefly, counted the amount, and stuffed it into his pocket. Then he looked at Tang Ruowei and smiled, "Young lady, do you know what happened to the last female immortal who bargained with us?"
Tang Ruowei's mouth was covered by Bai Qiuran, preventing her from speaking, but her eyes still looked over.
"Ah, we introduced her to a decent job on Nether Heaven Nightless Street."
The Old Man gave Tang Ruowei a sinister look, then continued, "I'll let you go this time, but remember, this is the Eastern Immortal Realm, not the Cultivation World. You are no longer those powerful ancestors who could command the wind and rain; you are now just the lowest-ranking cultivators."
Only after the Old Man's figure disappeared behind the cabin door did Bai Qiuran release her hand from Tang Ruowei's mouth.
"Try to avoid trouble and keep a low profile."
Bai Qiuran said to her, "Money is not a necessity for us. Problems that can be solved with money are not problems."
"Knew."
Tang Ruowei lowered her head, looking somewhat dejected.
"However, I never expected the Immortal Realm to be like this."
Li Jinyao frowned and said, "If I had known this would happen, I would have been better off being a carefree immortal in the Mortal World Earth Immortal."
People always change.
Bai Qiuran sighed, "Immortals are the same."
"But are we just going to let that old geezer get away with this?"
Li Jinyao touched the hilt of the knife at her waist, watching the cabin where the Old Man had disappeared.
"You heard it too, Senior Bai. Those guys have persecuted newly Ascension cultivators more than once or twice. What's this 'Nether Heaven Nightless Street'? Isn't it just a place for the Joyful Realm? And they even force innocent women into prostitution."
Li Jinyao was, after all, Cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect. The Heavenly Demon Sect did not have any sayings like "endure a moment's anger and the sea and sky will be vast." The Old Man had just spoken rudely to her and her friends. If she did not avenge this, Miss Li might not be able to find peace of mind for a long time to come.
"Of course we have to deal with them, but there's a right and wrong way to do it."
Bai Qiuran and said, "It would be better if they died mysteriously, like it was an accident."
The Cloud Soaring Flying Boat sailed through the sea of clouds for more than a month, during which Immortals disembarked at their preferred stops and headed to new worlds.
More than a month later, the Cloud Soaring Flying Boat stopped at the platform of Yang Heaven, the Seventh Heaven of the Eastern Immortal Realm.
Bai Qiuran and the other two disembarked here. Before getting off the boat, Bai Qiuran paused for a moment and stomped her foot on the Cloud Soaring Flying Boat without making a sound.
After more than a month of observation, Bai Qiuran finally discovered with disappointment that the crew members on this ship were all scum among Immortals. Not to mention forcing women into prostitution, they had even committed murder and disposed of corpses.
Therefore, he left a Sword Qi inside the flying boat. To avoid harming innocent people, this Sword Qi would not detonate immediately. It would wait until the flying boat flew all the way to the Nine Heavens Cangtian then returned. On the way back to the Ascension Cloud Sea, it would explode and blow the flying boat into pieces.
After completing this arrangement, Bai Qiuran and her two companions left the Cloud Soaring Flying Boat and officially entered the Eastern Immortal Realm.
The world structures of the Fivefold Immortal Realm are all different. Among them, the structures of the Four Directions Immortal Realm of the east, west, south, and north are largely the same, all consisting of Nine Heavens, only the order is different.
For example, in the Northern Immortal Realm, the Northern Mysterious Heaven is the highest of the Nine Heavens, while in the Eastern Immortal Realm, the highest heaven is the Eastern Azure Heaven, where the Eastern Azure Emperor's Emperor City and his followers are basically located.
In the other heavens and the Heaven of the Book, there is an Immortal Venerable under the Eastern Azure Emperor who guards each of them. The Seventh Heaven, Yang Heaven, which Bai Qiuran and his group are about to go to, is the place that the Yang Immortal Venerable, whom he imprisoned in the Ghost Realm, once ruled and controlled.
The main structure of this realm is a continent suspended above a sea of clouds, where many exotic Immortal Beast also live, and some places are extremely dangerous.
Leaving the platform of the Cloud Soaring Flying Boat, outside lies the largest port Immortal City on the Seventh Heaven Continent. The buildings here are extremely luxurious, with gold, pearls, jade, and white jade as the basic building materials. Of course, this is because these materials are not of much practical value to Immortals.
Within this Immortal City, there are permanent introductory points for various sects of the Immortal Realm, as well as information merchants who cater specifically to novice Immortal Realm, making a living by selling basic knowledge about the Immortal Realm.
For just five Immortal Realm Coin, you can purchase a fairly comprehensive book introducing basic common knowledge of the Immortal Realm from them. Of course, if you want more advanced information, such as which City in which Immortal Realm is the easiest to navigate, which sect or force is the most dangerous to mess with, or tracking down someone's whereabouts, then you'll have to pay extra.
After some questioning, Bai Qiuran and his group arrived at the information-selling area in the Immortal City. These two rows of streets were basically all lined with information dealers.
Of course, some of these information brokers would definitely cheat people, and there are probably quite a few of them. After seeing the various behaviors of the Immortals in the Eastern Immortal Realm along the way, Bai Qiuran had long since given up any hope for their integrity.
He has to choose for himself.
After some investigation, he walked straight towards a thin, middle-aged man dressed in a simple robe in a corner of the street.
