Chapter: 1097 (1/2)

AST 1097 Formation Immortal Sect, Barging through the Immortal Obstruction Formation

The Northern Sea City was very beautiful. The Northern Sea was located on the line separating regions of different temperatures. The places on the south side had four seasons, with periods of both hot and cold. On the other hand, on the north side, especially in the far north, the places would have cold winter days all year around.

“We’ll rest and reorganize ourselves here. Let’s stay here for two days before we continue on our way!” Qing Shui and the others landed in a huge square in Northern Sea City. There were many people and demonic beasts around.

The Northern Sacred Lu Continent was very big but the population wasn’t sparsely distributed. The World of the Nine Continents was very huge but it was segregated into cities and wilderness. The wilderness was the demonic beasts’ territories where countless of them would gather together in large groups. Other than some adventurers or people who were traveling, there were only demonic beasts.

In the wilderness, large cities would appear. Both the city itself and some of the wilderness around it would be within the city’s influence. Large reinforcing walls would be built around the city. This was primarily because there were countless cultivators in the cities. In order for them to protect their family and their own safety, they would fight against the demonic beasts outside that were thinking of entering the cities. Although they were on opposite sides with the demonic beasts, a lot of what they ate and wore came from demonic beasts.

Humans and demonic beasts had been engaged in battles for countless years and every day, there would be cities drowned by demonic beasts and some new ones created which wandering and homeless people would move into.

Things like these were very common in this world. The population in this world was immeasurable and there could be more than a billion people in each city. After all, the scale of the cities in this world was on an entirely different scale. There were over 100,000 cities in the world and there were also some unique cities which were extremely prosperous.

Although there were many people, the cities were spacious enough and thus the people’s standard of living rose gradually. Even ordinary people had strong physical bodies and had a strong value for manual labor.

“Father, let’s go take a look at the Northern Sea later!” Luan Luan was in a very good mood and said this the moment that they landed.

“We’ll have to find an inn first!” Qing Shui planned to stay here for two days, so it was better for them to find a place to settle down first.

“Since we’ll be taking a look at the Northern Sea, why don’t we just find an inn near there? If there really isn’t any there, it won’t be a bad idea to camp on the beach either.” Luan Luan gave it some thought and suggested.

“Alright, we’ll go with your plan.” Qing Shui smiled and answered.

Yiye Tian smiled as he looked at Qing Shui and Luan Luan, feeling very consoled. It was his daughter’s blessing to have met Qing Shui. Additionally, he was very clear about the relationship between Luan Luan and Qing Shui. Yiye Jiange had told him all about it previously. Moreover, he had also seen their interactions during the period they had been together. He felt very much at ease.

Parental love was very great, without any hint of selfishness to them. Therefore, seeing someone else treating his own daughter well made Yiye Tian truly feel happy and thankful. Moreover, the person in question was his own younger brother-in-law.

Qing Shui executed the Nine Continents Steps and the group had appeared in the north parts of the Northern Sea City. Of course, Qing Shui had to adjust the distance to travel or else they would arrive above the Northern Sea.

After arriving, they rented a huge and luxurious horse carriage and headed for the Northern Sea.

They could soon see the Northern Sea from a distance. Right now, they were traveling toward the coast. The coast was several kilometers away from the shores and they could see people along the shores.

“Brother, please stop here!” Qing Shui looked out of the carriage and saw that they had already arrived next to the coast, so he smiled and spoke to the middle-aged driver.

“Alright!”

After paying, the group alighted. The streets here were very curvy, giving rise to a whole different charm. There was a hint of a fishy odor coming from the sea breeze. It wasn’t a nice smell but it wasn’t disgusting either.

There were many inns in the area. Although they might not be directly situated next to each other, there would be one within a hundred meters of another. Because the place was situated next to the sea, many people would come here every day. This was why this line of work was extremely prosperous and would include providing both food and accommodations.

Deity’s Abode!

They hadn’t walked very far when they came across an inn which didn’t seem very big but was of a very high quality. Qing Shui memorized the name right away because it sounded too powerful. Deity’s Abode. Who would dare to use a name like this?

“Let’s see if they still have rooms available here. If there are, then let’s just stay here!” Qing Shui looked at the handwriting on the signboard and felt that the owner must be someone exceptional.

“There are words here?”

Before they reached the entrance, they saw a standing sign with some words written on them.

“This place is profound. Ordinary people shouldn’t enter. Enter at your own risk!”

These few simple words caused many people to depart after stopping only for a short moment. Just then, a voice rang out, “Trying to mislead people with strange ideas. I shall enter and take a look today.”

Qing Shui turned to see a handsome young man with dashing brows and bright eyes. He had a graceful disposition and his figure was slender. He was wearing a battle armor that looked a lot like a hauberk, which made him appear to be very valiant. However, his expression was too arrogant, making others feel uncomfortable.

“Yin`er, stop it. Don’t charge in recklessly. Some time ago, a Martial Emperor expert had attempted to enter. Guess what happened to him?”

A powerful voice rang out and a figure appeared next to the young man. This was an unflustered middle-aged man. He seemed mature and appeared to be gentle. Despite this, he seemed to have great authority and a hint of strictness. This combination made him appear to be very manly.

Some people in the surroundings stopped. After all, this was a prosperous region and many cultivators were very proud and did not know what fear was. However, when some weak cultivators attempted to enter, they would be sent flying out. They would end up being covered in dust, but they wouldn’t suffer any injuries.They would just look very pathetic.
