Inside Martial Saint City

This move will buy the Dragon Kingdom considerable time to recover from the Great Invasion.

In this way, over a full half-day, Lin Yi entered and exited ten small Space Channel to clean up the Monster on the other side of the passages.

However, the other side of the small Space Channel is not only filled with ordinary Monster and Monster King, but also with Monster at the Demigod Level.

At 3 PM, Lin Yi arrived at a dock in Donghai City. Just as he crossed the boundary with his Supreme Spirit Crystal Fire Body, he saw a sharp demonic claw Void Breaking Domain.

The owner of that demonic claw was a massive crocodile dragon with a broad, flat head, resembling a small hill covered in sharp thorns, like fangs emerging from Hell.

His pair of emerald green eyes were filled with icy death intent.

After Lin Yi withstood one of its claws with his Spirit Crystal Fire Body, he completely crossed over to the other realm and engaged in a fierce battle with the Azure Crocodragon.

This Azure Crocodragon is on par with the Barbarian God in terms of combat power. It can breathe out a kind of Deep Blue Spirit Fire that specifically burns the soul, making it extremely powerful.

Lin Yi originally wanted to release the Blazing Flame Fire to solve the problem once and for all, but he was afraid that the little guy would leave him nothing. So he used his Supreme Spirit Crystal Fire Body to withstand the Deep Blue Spirit Fire. In the end, after some effort, he used Tong Pass to suppress the Azure Crocodragon.

Having defeated a Yao God whose combat power was similar to that of Barbarian God, Lin Yi decided to explore the surrounding area to find the Yao God's lair.

But at this moment, several Monster Demigod erupted from the distant mountains and approached this place. Lin Yi immediately returned to Blue Star along the Space Channel and was on high alert.

An hour later, the small Space Channel had not been attacked or torn apart by the Demigod Monster. Lin Yi crossed over to check again and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there were no Demigod Monster remaining on the other side.

If those Demigod Monster had attacked this small Space Channel, it would have been a huge disaster for Donghai City.

After reporting this small Space Channel to the authorities and having it designated as a priority monitoring channel, Lin Yi, seeing that it was getting late, prepared to return to the Heavenly Initiate World.

However, before leaving, he left the Witch Treasure with Elder Chen in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Although Witch Treasure is only a Demigod Monster, he is still a powerful Demigod capable of dealing with the great calamities of the Dragon Kingdom.

Unless it's Demigod- like Monster that controls Domain attacking, he doesn't need to worry about the Dragon Kingdom for the time being.

In a mountain range several dozen meters outside Seventeenth Tong Pass, the moonlight was bright and the insects and cicadas chirped softly.

Lin Yi quietly appeared inside Gu Tianxue's carriage.

The carriage was luxurious, the candlelight was bright, and the exquisite purple table was full of various pastries and Spiritual Fruit.

Gu Tianxue sensed Lin Yi's presence and slowly opened her eyes. "You're back? I had the caravan rest here earlier under the pretext of seeking enlightenment. Also, just now, Chen Muer's two half-step Martial Saint brothers also wanted to obtain the Martial Saint Pill and become your disciples."

Lin Yi nodded, picked out a few pastries to try, and said, "You are in charge of their affairs. If you think it's acceptable to accept them, then accept them; if you don't think it's acceptable, then refuse them."

Although Lin Yi had many Martial Saint Pill Martial Saint Pill, he would not waste them recklessly in order to recruit people.

Moreover, he looked down on some arrogant and self-important half-step Martial Saint.

Gu Tianxue smiled and said, "Ah, I'll keep watch for you. Are we still traveling tonight?"

"No need. My business is now settled, and I plan to head to Martial Saint City tonight. Tongguan Prefecture is pressing me urgently, and it would be inappropriate for me to linger for another two days."

"Ren, then I will accompany you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

Although Lin Yi knew the location of Martial Saint City from Qin Jian's memories, the memories were ultimately vague.

With Gu Tianxue leading the way, we might be able to save ourselves a lot of trouble.

Afterwards, Lin Yi summoned Zhuge Jiujian and Chen Muer, and had them guard the team to help Qin Hai escort the convoy to Martial Saint City.

Neither of them dared to disobey, and they readily agreed.

In the night sky, Lin Yi and Gu Tianxue became a streak of light and disappeared into the horizon.

The crowd below watched Lin Yi and his companion's departing figures with expressions of envy.

"Although there are many Martial Family in Martial Saint City, Tongguan Prefecture has great responsibilities and power. Even first-class Martial Family must obey the orders of Tongguan Prefecture on the surface."

"Within Tongguan Prefecture, besides the current Ten Garrison Commander, the highest-ranking official is the Prefect of Tong Pass. There are also several Deputy Prefect with varying degrees of authority and responsibility. If you make great contributions to the Ancient Domain and Tongguan Prefecture one day, you will have the opportunity to become a Deputy Prefect. Otherwise, once your term as garrison commander is over, you will automatically lose your status in Tongguan Prefecture."

During their journey, Gu Tianxue, fearing that Lin Yi might not have a clear understanding of the situation in Tongguan Prefecture, explained in detail the information she knew.

As Lin Yi listened, he asked, "What is the identity and strength of the Prefect of Tong Pass?"

"I am not sure about the strength of the Mansion Master, but his surname is also 'Gu'."

"Are you from your Gu Family?"

Gu Tianxue shook her head and clarified, "No, all the previous Prefect of Tong Pass had the surname 'Gu,' but they were not members of my Gu Family. I can only say that there is some connection between them."

Lin Yi nodded, deciding not to discuss the topic further.

Gu Tianxue's ability to send Qin Jian to the Twelfth Tong Pass as the Garrison Commander was clearly not solely due to some past connections.

Then, Lin Yi inquired about the situation at the Fifth Tong Pass.

Gu Tianxue frowned and said, "At noon today, I received information that several patriarchs from Martial Saint City personally came to the Fifth Tong Pass to join forces against the Yao God who controls the Domain. Now the demon scourge there has been suppressed, and all the Monster have been driven into the Lava Fire Domain."

"How is that Garrison Commander Li Family?"

"I heard that although the essence and blood were severely damaged and the vital energy was greatly depleted, the root cause was not damaged."

Lin Yi then asked, "Do you think the reason why Tongguan Prefecture suddenly summoned the twelve Tong Pass Guardian back is really related to the incident at the Fifth Tong Pass?"

Gu Tianxue seemed to have some guesses, but couldn't be sure.

He shook his head and said, "I don't know either. This matter might be a great opportunity for you... Oh, I forgot to mention, the Martial Saint Pill you traded with Shao Xing has taken effect. The Eleventh Tong Pass Garrison Commander, Shao Lian, also broke through to Martial Saint a few days ago..."

The Twelfth Tong Pass was far from Martial Saint City. Even though Lin Yi and his companion used all their Martial Saint powers to fly, it took them all night to reach Martial Saint City.

A dozen miles away, Lin Yi saw a majestic city come into view.

The entire Martial Saint City covers a vast area, stretching as far as the eye can see. From a distance, the Martial Saint City resembles a lurking giant beast, exuding a majestic and imposing aura.

The city walls were tall and thick, and the city gates were incredibly heavy, made of hard Darksteel and inlaid with sharp spikes.

Compared to the thousand-foot-high city wall of Tong Pass, the city wall of Martial Saint City is quite ordinary and does not surprise or impress anyone.

Gu Tianxue explained, "The Martial Saint City has developed and expanded over tens of thousands of years, so the city walls below were all expanded and rebuilt in the last few hundred years."

Soon, the two landed in front of the Martial Saint City.

The city's defenders were Four-star Martial Artist clad in martial arts Mystic Armor, numbering over ten. Their faces were resolute, and their bodies were filled with Blood Fiend Qi aura, suggesting that their external martial arts were quite unique.

Upon seeing that Lin Yi and Gu Tianxue were both Martial Saint, one of them stepped forward and said, "Martial Saint City is currently under martial law. Please state your identities, gentlemen."

Gu Tianxue took out a Jade Token pendant and said, "I am Gu Tianxue of the Gu Family. This gentleman next to me is my husband, Qin Jian, the Twelfth Town Guardian of Tong Pass."

Upon hearing Lin Yi's identity, the man's eyes lit up slightly. After bowing to Lin Yi, he opened the city gate.

"So it's you, Garrison Commander! We've been so rude!"

"No problem!"

Lin Yi nodded and stepped into the magnificent Martial Saint City with Gu Tianxue.

At this moment, in the center of Martial Saint City, a palace is located atop Cloud Mountain.

Inside the spacious hall, twelve stone chairs, seemingly scattered on the jade floor, actually echo the locations of the Twelve Tong Passes Ancient Domain Tongguan passes.

Among them, all eleven stone chairs were already occupied, and they all exuded the aura of Martial Saint. They were the Tong Pass Guardian, who were ranked among the top eleven in the Ancient Domain.

A dissatisfied voice came from the eighth seat. "We've been waiting all day, why is Qin Jian returning so slowly? I heard he also managed to break through to Martial Saint, but he can't even fly?"

He was tall and imposing, wearing a heavy set of black metal Spiritual Treasure, and his voice was as deep and resonant as thunder.

Yang Fan, the Tong Pass Guardian, woke up from his meditation with his eyes closed. He frowned and said, "Lei Buping, be patient. Even if all twelve of us are gathered here, it won't make a difference if the Mansion Master doesn't come."

The tenth Tong Pass Guardian was the youngest, around twenty years old, a prodigy among the younger generation of the Ancient Domain, named Kun Haotian. He chuckled and said, "Hehe, perhaps the Mansion Master hasn't shown up because not everyone is here. Why don't we wait a little longer? This stone chair is quite comfortable."

Shao Lian, who was last in line, was calm and composed. He spoke up, "I just saw the Mansion Master playing chess with a senior in the pavilion. They looked very relaxed, but the letter summoning us was so urgent. I wonder what it is about?"

"I thought it was Old Li's matter. Old Li, I heard that your Fifth Tong Pass was breached, with tens of thousands killed or wounded? This is truly a disgrace..."

On the fifth stone chair, You Huoli's face was still somewhat pale. He glanced at Lei Buping, who was speaking with a mocking tone, and said coldly, "Don't bother with me. One day, I will destroy the Fire Domain outside Tong Pass."

"Tsk tsk, Old Li, our Ancient Domain has been unable to destroy that Lava Demon Domain for so many years. What are you going to do about it? Even if you master the Li Family's ' Li Fire ' Domain, you're probably no match for that Heavenly Demon Dragon."

Yang Fan Fanyu: "Alright, Lei Buping, we are all Tong Pass Guardian, and we should help and encourage each other. Brother Li is injured now, so don't provoke him with your words."

"I, Lei Buping, have always liked to speak the truth. Not to mention you, Lao Li, even if Qin Jian came over, I would still make a few sarcastic remarks."

Lei Buping grumbled and said, "We've made him wait for so long. Even if it's the King of Heaven himself, he should apologize to me Lei Buping."

Just then, a deep, resonant voice came from outside the hall.

What do you want?

The person who spoke was Lin Yi, who was wearing Qin Jian's appearance, and next to Lin Yi was the white-haired Mansion Master.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, the Mansion Master, Lei Buping quickly suppressed the words he wanted to say.

His expression changed instantly, and he smiled broadly, "We are all brothers of the Garrison Commander, so what's wrong with waiting? There's no need for apologies."
