The Divine Dynasty's Gate Guardians, Immortal Artifact Avatars?
Chen Changqing remained calm and composed.
Just then, he suddenly realized...
In the void, countless bubbles of varying sizes suddenly appeared.
The aura emanating from those bubbles was terrifying and intimidating, as if they possessed the World Power.
Besides that, what's even stranger is...
Inside those bubbles, one could even vaguely make out mountains and rivers.
"Um?"
"What are these bubbles...?"
Chen Changqing stared in astonishment at the strange sight before him, unable to stop himself from asking questions.
I originally thought we had entered the territory of the Maple Leaf Dynasty, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Hearing Chen Changqing's question, Liu Ruyan remained calm and composed, smiling slightly as she explained:
"Changqing Brother Changqing."
"Each bubble you see is a self-contained Minor World."
"Or rather, it was a dynasty."
As she spoke, Liu Ruyan gently raised her hand, pointed to a small bubble, and said:
"A tiny bubble like this contains a typical dynasty."
"And the slightly larger ones, like that one."
Liu Ruyan raised her jade-like hand, pointed to another slightly larger bubble, and added:
"That's the Imperial Dynasty!"
One Imperial Dynasty ruled over ten ordinary dynasties.
"So around that slightly larger bubble, you can see ten smaller bubbles surrounding it."
At this point, Liu Ruyan paused, her gaze sharpening as she looked towards the very center.
There, suspended in mid-air, was an enormous bubble, surrounded by countless other bubbles, like stars orbiting the moon.
Chen Changqing also looked over, and before Liu Ruyan could speak, he said:
"Could that giant bubble in the very center be the Nine Provinces Divine Dynasty?"
Earlier, when Liu Ruyan was talking to him about the Hundred Dynasties War, she had mentioned the Nine Provinces Divine Dynasty.
"Um!"
Liu Ruyan nodded, a hint of awe flashing in her eyes, and said:
"That's right, that's the Nine Provinces Divine Dynasty."
"The supreme being who rules over all dynasties and Imperial Dynasty."
After Liu Ruyan's explanation, Chen Changqing finally understood.
"That's really amazing!"
"Who would have thought that those things that looked like bubbles were actually a dynasty world?"
"Then what place is this?"
"Or is it just a transit station within the teleportation array?"
Chen Changqing hesitated to himself.
Before he could think any further, a sudden change occurred.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, two towering figures appeared in the void ahead.
The moment these two figures appeared, an overwhelming and terrifying aura of pressure emanated from them.
Upon sensing this, Chen Changqing couldn't help but feel a jolt of fear.
They quickly looked over!
Upon closer inspection, the two figures were over a thousand feet tall, their golden armor gleaming, like ancient war gods!
"Stop!!"
Upon appearing, a colossal figure spoke, ordering them to stop.
The sound was like a thunderclap from the heavens, rolling and resounding, making Chen Changqing's heart tremble.
What Chen Changqing found even more unbelievable was that the pressure emanating from these two figures actually surpassed that of Tribulation Transcendence expert.
"Hiss!"
Chen Changqing gasped, secretly amazed:
"This aura... surpasses even the Tribulation Transcendence?"
Chen Changqing was deeply moved.
It should be noted that, so far, the strongest Cultivator he has encountered in reality is only at the Tribulation Transcendence level.
In the Shu Mountain Sacred Land, the Sect Master Chen Yuan is at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, the ancestors behind the Seven Main Peaks are also at the Tribulation Transcendence, and the two old men guarding the forbidden area, the Shu Mountain Sword Graveyard, are also at this level.
But right now, these two figures' cultivation levels have actually surpassed the Tribulation Transcendence.
Just as Chen Changqing was shocked, Liu Ruyan quickly stopped the Maple Splendor Boat, and with a light wave of her hand, a Token of the Maple Leaf Dynasty appeared in her hand.
"Reporting to the Immortal."
"I am the Ninth Princess of the Maple Leaf Dynasty."
"I have returned to participate in the upcoming Hundred Dynasties War."
"We hope the passage can be opened!"
With that, Liu Ruyan waved her hand lightly, and the Token she was holding immediately rose into the void.
Upon seeing this, a figure reached out and took the Token. After confirming that it was correct, the figure raised its hand and drew Dao Gold in the void.
"Boom..."
Randomly, a channel appears, directly connecting to a medium-sized bubble.
After completing this task, the figure returned Liu Ruyan's Token and then disappeared into the void along with another figure.
"Call!"
Liu Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief after getting the Token back.
My gaze shifted, and I saw that Chen Changqing was still in a state of shock.
"Changqing Brother Changqing?"
Liu Ruyan called out softly, with some hesitation.
Upon hearing this, Chen Changqing couldn't help but tremble, finally snapping out of his daze.
"Senior Sister Ruyan."
Who were those two seniors just now?
Hearing Chen Changqing's question, Liu Ruyan smiled and explained:
"Junior brother, those two figures are the Gate Guardians of the Nine Provinces Divine Dynasty!"
"However... they are not Cultivators in reality, but rather manifestations of an Immortal Artifact in the hands of the Divine Dynasty."
"They are specifically responsible for guarding this entrance."
"Foreign Cultivators will find it very difficult to enter without Token from this realm's dynasty!"
"At best, you'll be banished from this realm; at worst, you'll be killed on the spot!"
Upon hearing Liu Ruyan's words, Chen Changqing was greatly surprised.
"Does Senior Sister mean that those two figures are Avatar of Immortal Artifacts?"
Liu Ruyan nodded and murmured an "Mmm":
"That's one way to understand it!"
Chen Changqing understood immediately and sighed inwardly:
"So it's because of the Immortal Artifact! No wonder it's so powerful!"
"His aura surpasses that of Tribulation Transcendence expert."
Thinking about it, he glanced down at the index finger of his right hand, where he wore an inconspicuous ring.
Others might not know, but Chen Changqing himself knew it all too well.
The ring on his hand was also of the Immortal Artifact level; it was the Heaven-Stepping Ring left behind by the Heaven-Stepping Immortal Emperor.
"It's also Immortal Artifact."
"Why can't my Heaven-Stepping Ring do that?"
Chen Changqing hesitated secretly.
So far, the Heaven-Stepping Ring on his hand has been used for storage, and no other function has been discovered.
"Changqing Brother Changqing, don't think too much about it. Come with me to the Maple Leaf Dynasty!"
Just as Chen Changqing was lost in thought, Liu Ruyan's voice came over.
Upon hearing this, Chen Changqing snapped out of his reverie and stopped thinking about it.
Then, led by Liu Ruyan, he stepped directly onto that passage.
Before long, the two passed through the Golden Light passage, and the view before them suddenly opened up.
Although from the outside, Maple Leaf Dynasty appears to be nothing more than a bubble, its internal space is vast and boundless.
The mountains and rivers are magnificent.
The Spiritual Qi in some of these Cave Heaven is in no way inferior to that of the Shu Mountain Sacred Land.
After traveling for some time, the Maple Splendor Boat finally stopped in front of a magnificent Imperial City.
The city walls of this Imperial City are hundreds of feet high, and are made entirely of Spirit Jade. The two characters "Maple Leaf" engraved above the city gate shine brightly.
This is the location of the Maple Leaf Dynasty's Imperial City!
"Ninth Princess, you're back!"
As soon as they arrived, a gasp of surprise came from not far away.
