Linhai City Became a Cultivation Paradise
Eastern Region.
In mid-air.
Gu Chen boarded the flying boat and headed east.
Linhai City is located on the edge of the Eastern Region, almost at the easternmost point of the continent.
Fortunately, it's not too far from the Five Symbols Sect.
"Are all these people heading to Linhai City?"
Looking at the surrounding sky, a hint of uncertainty flashed across Gu Chen's face.
According to relevant information, Linhai City is just a small city. It has nothing special about it, whether in terms of cultivation or resources, and not many people go there on weekdays.
Now, as they get closer, they see more and more flying boats all around, heading in almost the same direction.
Controlling the airship, it approached the nearest one. Before it could even ask anything, the people on the other airship spoke first, saying:
"This young man is also heading to Linhai City, right?"
Gu Chen was taken aback, looked at the other person, and asked:
"The others must also be going to Linhai City. May I ask what their purpose is?"
"You didn't know?" The man was clearly surprised.
Gu Chen smiled:
"I went to Linhai City to visit a friend, so I don't know the specifics of what happened."
"I see." The other party nodded, pondered for a moment, and said:
"You'll find out when you get there anyway, so I'll just tell you."
"In the past two days, for some unknown reason, Linhai City has suddenly become a treasure trove for cultivation. It's said that even the spiritual energy there has changed, and many people say that cultivating there can significantly improve one's strength."
"Many powerful forces in the vicinity had already sent people there. We were the ones who got the news late. Now we're rushing over to see if we can still find a good spot."
"It's become a treasure land for cultivation?" Gu Chen said softly, a thoughtful expression on his face.
Based on his previous check-in experiences, he probably had a guess in mind.
Perhaps something happened at the city lord's mansion in Linhai City.
"I see, no wonder so many people have come. Thank you for informing me."
After thanking him, Gu Chen looked into the distance.
This place is not far from Linhai City.
Now, from this vantage point, looking out into the distance, the view of the distant sea is within sight.
The Linhai City was named so because it faces the Endless Sea.
The Endless Sea, as its name suggests, stretches as far as the eye can see, seemingly without end, until the horizon meets the sea, where the other continent on the other side cannot be seen.
Legend has it that a powerful individual, well-prepared, attempted to cross the Endless Sea in a flying boat, but after a long time, returned empty-handed.
What lies on the other side of the Endless Sea? No one knows.
Some have attempted to explore the depths of the Endless Sea in search of hidden treasures, but have found nothing.
The Endless Sea is vast, but it doesn't harbor any powerful marine creatures, so it's not even worth hunting.
A short while later, Gu Chen withdrew his gaze.
At this moment, we were closer to Linhai City.
The general outline of Linhai City also came into view.
It is indeed not a large city, and its size is limited, but it looks somewhat crowded now.
Flying boats hovered above or near Linhai City, while large numbers of figures were immersed in the Endless Sea near the Linhai City, creating a lively scene.
Gu Chen glanced at it twice, then suddenly closed his eyes, a look of surprise on his face.
Brush.
With a flash of light, an Origin Spirit Stone appeared in his hand.
"Is it really Origin Spiritual Power?"
What permeated the void nearby was none other than Origin Spiritual Power. Although its concentration was relatively weak, it was not difficult for him to distinguish it, given his contact with it.
"According to the records of the sect and the world, there is almost no Origin Spiritual Power left in the Land of the Four Directions. What remains is controlled by various major forces. Now, there is actually Origin Spiritual Power emanating here. This..."
With that, Gu Chen took a deep breath and took out the communication stone.
This matter is of great importance and should be reported to the sect!
At this moment, the flying boat had arrived above Linhai City.
The allure of this cultivation paradise is truly astonishing.
Everywhere you look, you'll see a large number of flying boats parked.
The surrounding area was bustling with noise, like being in a lively marketplace.
"More and more people are coming. Damn it, we can't let too many people know. With so many people, it feels like there's not enough spiritual energy to go around."
"Exactly, exactly. There are too many monks and not enough meat. If this continues, no one will benefit. It would be better for more people to leave so I can enjoy the training environment here more."
"Big brother, they said staying in the sea is almost the same as staying here, why don't we go and give it a try?"
"No, we're not going. They might be lying on purpose. We worked so hard to get these good spots; we can't just throw them away."
Gu Chen listened briefly but didn't get any useful information, so he withdrew his attention and began searching for the location of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Found it."
Soon, amidst the layers of flying boats and figures, Gu Chen saw the city lord's mansion, which was filled with people.
At that moment, they put away the flying boat and headed down.
Suddenly, a voice shouted:
"Look, there are waves!"
"Waves?"
Gu Chen stopped what he was doing and looked toward the Endless Sea.
Several miles offshore, the once flat sea surface now showed varying elevations.
From a distance, it looks like an extended arc, approaching the shore.
The arc moves very quickly, and as it moves, its height gradually increases.
Is this what ocean waves are?
Gu Chen stared intently, a hint of curiosity on his face.
"That's strange. There wasn't much wind, so how did waves appear?"
Nearby, someone frowned in confusion.
"What's so strange about that? The waves are just waves, the ocean wants to have some fun," someone said with a laugh.
Someone raised their hand and gestured, saying:
"It's already this high up, it feels like it'll rush over here. No, we can't stay here."
In an instant, not only in the city lord's mansion, but also in the waters near the shore, people began to leave.
However, this is ultimately only a small minority.
The vast majority of people showed excitement as they watched the waves gradually approach and rise; some even immediately set off towards the sea.
"I never expected to encounter such a good thing. I've never seen anything like it before. Now I can experience what the waves feel like."
"Why are you running away? You're such a coward. It's just a wave. No matter how scary it looks, it's just a pile of water. We're cultivators, not ordinary people. What are you afraid of?"
"We can just stay in the city. This distance should be quite safe, and we can experience things up close. It's perfect."
As the waves approached, the crowd's reaction resembled a carnival.
At this point, the waves had reached a height of nearly four people.
On the Linhai City, Gu Chen frowned, took a deep breath, and immediately retreated.
