1664 Early Month (1/2)
After Leng Manxue had one deacon bring the map of Motian Realm to Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie spent a day studying it. As a result, the day had quickly passed.
The information about the map was stored in the jade slip. Zhang Tie admitted that the map in the jade slip was much more advanced than the map that he bought in Heavenly Square City on both quality and precision. In the map collected by the immortal palace, beside the 9 big domains, 64 middle domains and 360 small domains, even tens of thousands of regions were marked clearly. Additionally, the sphere of influence of humans, demons and clans as well as mines were also marked on the map. It was completely a military map of Motian Realm, which helped Zhang Tie a lot.
By visualizing the map of Motian Realm completely, Zhang Tie also gained an increase in spiritual energy.
What surprised Zhang Tie was that although Motian Realm was large, it didn't produce element crystals except for one place, namely Mountain Ruins at the highest, ethereal part of Motian Realm. By contrast, air floating metal which was rarely seen in Taixia Country spread everywhere in Motian Realm as each domain contained mines of air floating metal.
On the map, Mountain Ruins' space was many times greater than that of the entire domains. However, Zhang Tie didn't see any introduction of the terrain of Mountain Ruins on the map; instead, Mountain Ruins was just open land. A space between Mountain Ruins and domains was marked as Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer with a special line of annotation below——Danger, only wind immortal generals are allowed in.
Feeling mysterious about Mountain Ruins, Zhang Tie bore it in mind as he thought about further learning it when there was a chance.
...
On the second day, precisely March 1st, the 3584th year of the fourth Hui of the ninth Yuan of the third Ji of Emperor NvWo Calendar, the monthly big trade fair kicked off. One Hui contained 10,800 years; one Yuan contained 108 Huis; one Ji contained 108 Yuans. These figures aroused Zhang Tie's illusions. To put it simply, people in Motian Realm used to say Year, Month and Day while ignoring those time units Ji, Yuan and Hui.
Therefore, the second day, also the sixth day since Zhang Tie entered Motian Realm, was March 1 of the 3584th year of Emperor NvWo Calendar.
Before daybreak, Zhang Tie had woken up and cleansed himself. No sooner had he put on his clothes than he heard knocks at the door. After opening the door, he saw Liu Meng and Liu Yong who were still knocking at the door while looking left and right like thieves.
Zhang Tie let them in.
After coming in, the two brothers exchanged a glance with each other. Liu Yong rubbed his hands and licked his lips as he watched Zhang Tie, saying, ”The big trade fair kicks off today. We could use space-teleportation equipment now; did we get those items of Zi Clan Castle back?”
”Where did you hide them?”
”Right in a lotus flower pond inside Zi Clan Castle!”
”Weren't they discovered?”
”Not yet. Zi Clan Castle has been sealed. Many good items over there had been transferred to the warehouse of our immortal palace. We've checked the warehouse and didn't see those items that we buried in the pond!” Liu Meng said with a smirk as his eyes flickered.
