A Peaceful Journey of Sword Refinement, Qinggeng Commandery, Dangkang Commandery
Beep! Beep beep...
Kong Wenxuan sat cross-legged in his family's "Peacock Treasure Boat," with a jade bottle in front of him containing Fourth Tier spiritual water from the Sea Eye of his Lineage's "Peacock Secret Realm." The "Black Water Divine Sword Earth Sha Treasure Restriction," refining and enhancing the "Black Water Divine Sword."
Meanwhile, one could hear the calls of the Bifang coming from outside and into the distance.
He knew that this was the Bi Household's caravan, announcing their name to some forces along the original route and warning them not to easily block or disturb them.
Just like how a security escort agency calls out "He Wu" when delivering a shipment.
Of course, even though the Bi Household caravan had shouted slogans, they would occasionally encounter some audacious and persistent individuals along the way who would disregard the Bi Household Bi Household's reputation and risk attacking the caravan.
Among them are Bandit Cultivator and parasites who specialize in robbery, as well as some Demon Race and martial arts practitioners who were defeated and scattered in various places after the invasion, and there may even be some rivals and enemies of the Bi Household who deliberately disguised themselves.
In short, once the Bi Household caravan leaves Bifang Commandery and travels between the seven counties within Extended Net Moon Deer Prefecture, it is impossible to avoid setbacks, enemies, and various unexpected events along the way.
If it weren't for these dangers and unexpected events, only "Middle-Grade True Spirit" Lineage would be able to organize caravans to travel out of the prefecture and trade within a state to make a profit.
"Low-Grade True Spirit" Lineage are often limited to operating and trading within a single prefecture.
However, Kong Wenxuan naturally didn't need to worry about or intervene in the dangers, enemies, or setbacks along the way. The Bi Household's caravan was familiar with the trade routes and had skilled methods for handling such dangers and accidents.
Often, it's not even necessary for the cultivators of the Bi Household caravan to take action, nor for True Bi Yanyu True Lord to take action. The arrays and restrictions on the "Bifang Cloud Boat" and "Bifang Void Boat" are enough to unleash various Calamity Fire attacks, shattering and crushing most of those who block the way, enemies, and dangers.
If they encounter enemies or dangers that even weapons of war like the "Bifang Cloud Boat" and the "Bifang Void Boat" cannot handle, the True Lord Bi Yanyu True Lord, who is stationed in the caravan, will step in to resolve the situation.
Of course, there are very few enemies or problems that require the Bi Household; at least, Kong Wenxuan has not encountered any since he started traveling with the caravan.
Therefore, the Bi Household family was able to easily handle and suppress any problems, big or small, that occurred along the way, without Kong Wenxuan needing to intervene or having any opportunity to do so.
This was also the main reason why he chose to travel with the Bi Household caravan to "Zhuyan Commandery".
Not only is it safe, but it's also convenient. All he needs to do along the way is sit in his "Peacock Treasure Boat" at home, refining and enhancing the "Black Water Divine Sword," and he can safely and smoothly arrive at "Zhuyan Commandery." Why not?
If he were to travel alone to "Zhuyan Commandery," not to mention the dangers along the way, such as the hidden Bandit Cultivator, the scattered Demon Race and martial cultivators, although he had some strength and combat power, enough to dominate one or two among the Fourth Tier cultivators, he was not so arrogant as to think that he was invincible.
After all, even the "Bi Household Caravan" sometimes needed the Fifth Tier "Bifang Void Boat" to take action and launch attacks to deal with some enemies and dangers along the way, which is enough to show how high the level of enemies and dangers were on this journey!
Moreover, he was traveling alone, weary from the journey; where would he find the time or opportunity to cultivate and refine the "Black Water Divine Sword" along the way?

Therefore, traveling with the Bi Household caravan has many advantages.
The only downside is that the Bi Household caravan has its own route and order of action. They do not go to "Zhuyan Commandery" first, but to the nearest "Qinggeng Commandery". After that, they have to go north through Dangkang Commandery and Xuanniao Commandery before turning west through Chongming Commandery and finally arriving at Zhuyan Commandery.
Therefore, Kong Wenxuan also needed to follow the Bi Household caravan, detouring through Qinggeng Commandery, Dangkang Commandery, Xuanniao Commandery, and Chongming Commandery before arriving at Zhuyan Commandery, which would take a lot more time along the way.
However, he could spend all this time in his own "Peacock Treasure Boat" refining and upgrading the "Black Water Divine Sword" to improve his cultivation and strength, so he didn't have to worry about wasting time.
Moreover, the Bi Household caravan's method of traveling through space using the Fifth Tier "Bifang Void Boat" to carry a group of "Cloud Boats" and "Treasure Boats" is extremely fast, so there is no need to worry about wasting too much time on the road.
More time was wasted was spent in the various counties.
After all, the Bi Household caravan travels to various counties to do business, not just to check in. Naturally, they need to stay in each county along the way for a sufficient amount of time to sell their goods and purchase the supplies and spiritual items they need.
For example, the journey from "Bifang Commandery City" to "Qinggeng Commandery City" is hundreds of thousands of miles, but thanks to the "Bi Household Caravan's" ability to travel through space, they covered hundreds of thousands of miles in just over ten days and arrived at "Qinggeng Commandery City".
This wasn't Kong Wenxuan's first visit to Qinggeng Commandery, and he wasn't particularly interested in wandering around. As for the Lineage's trading activities, his fourth sister Kong Wenjun, was handling them herself, so Kong Wenxuan didn't need to worry about it.
Therefore, he stayed in Qinggeng Commandery City, at the Bi Household's camp, for the entire time, to cultivate and improve the "Black Water Divine Sword," thereby enhancing his cultivation and combat power.
During his two-plus months in Qinggeng Commandery City, apart from the Crested Ibis Kong Household, who were related to the Kong Huan Household by marriage, and his fourth sister Kong Wenjun and others who came to pay their respects, he was basically not disturbed by anyone else.
As for the Huan Household "Crested Ibis," their marriage ties with the Kong Household have become increasingly close over the years. Following Huan Qiyun's marriage to Kong Household Kong Huancai, more than ten women from the Huan Household have married into the Kong Household in the past ten years, further strengthening their Kong Household alliance.
It can be said that the Huan Household "Crested Ibis" clearly tasted the sweetness of the marriage alliance with the Kong Household, and felt the power and benefits of the two "divine swords" they obtained from the Kong Household. Therefore, they clung to the Kong Household more and more tightly.
Therefore, every time the Kong Household caravan followed the Bi Household caravan to Qinggeng Commandery for trade, they would receive great care from the Huan Household of the Crested Ibis. The Huan Household would even prepare in advance all kinds of pills, Spirit Plant, spiritual fruits, and spirit medicine medicines that the Kong Household needed to buy in Qinggeng Commandery, so that they could trade directly with the Huan Household after the Kong Household caravan arrived.
Therefore, after learning that Kong Wenxuan had come with a merchant caravan, the Huan Household made a special trip to pay their respects.
After staying in Qinggeng Commandery for two months, the Bi Household caravan set off again after completing its trade objectives.
Heading north, traversing space and traveling for over ten days, they finally arrived at the caravan's second stop after passing through Extended Net Moon Deer Extended Net Moon Deer Prefecture, directly controlled by the Lu Household. This stop was Dangkang Commandery, located northeast of Extended Net Moon Deer Prefecture.
