After flying for tens of thousands of miles, Han Li finally let out a long sigh.
From the information Fang Pan had given him, it was clear that he was not completely out of danger. However, the most troublesome threat had finally been eliminated.
He shook his head and released his Divine Sense to investigate his surroundings. Then, he changed his direction and sped off in a certain direction.
Not long after, he appeared in front of a sizable city.
At this time, he had changed his appearance again. He had transformed into a Young Confucian scholar who was around thirty years old. He restrained his aura and held a peach wood paper fan in his hand. He waved it slowly and followed the flow of people into the city.
This city was called "Discerning Moon City" and belonged to the eastern region of the Wasteland Continent.
During the chase with Fang Pan earlier, he had mostly headed east, so he did not waste his energy.
This city was very different from a desolate city like Waterfront City. It was not much less prosperous than Black Wind City. Of course, in terms of size, it could not compare to the latter.
What was different from Linhai City was that among the streams of people, most of them were mortals without any Fa Li or cultivation. There weren't many Immortal cultivators, and the highest cultivation level was at the Core Formation stage. There weren't many Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
Moreover, these Immortal cultivators, without exception, restrained their aura and mingled with the crowd like ordinary mortals.
Along the way, he had passed by many large and small cities. However, other than the first Waterfront City, most of the other cities basically belonged to the secular world and belonged to various countries.
In addition, in these cities, cultivators restrained their aura and were not allowed to fly. It seemed to be an unspoken rule.
This was all to maintain the order of the secular world.
The ones who maintained this order were naturally the Immortal cultivator forces behind the official forces.
Of course, in some of the larger cities, there would be some areas secretly set up as markets for cultivators to stay.
As the largest city in the surrounding tens of thousands of miles, Discerning Moon City naturally had its own market.
The market in the city was located in the southeastern region of the city, and the concealment restrictions here were completely useless to Han Li. He continued onward and arrived in front of a tall tower that had been constructed from massive white stones along the main street.
The pagoda was dozens of feet tall and looked quite majestic. Under the reflection of the sun, it emitted a layer of sparkling and translucent light, which was very eye-catching.
This was where the Discerning Moon City's Teleportation Array was located.
Near the white tower, there was a shining golden hall. That was where the Celestial Inn was located.
Han Li strode directly into the giant white pagoda, and the first thing that he saw on the first floor of the pagoda were five teleportation formations that were situated less than 1,000 feet away from each other. They were situated in a ring formation around the entire pagoda, and there was a golden-robed cultivator standing beside each formation.
From the golden dragon pattern embroidered on their robes, one could tell that these people belonged to the Immortal Palace.
Beside each teleportation formation stood a few cultivators, as if they were waiting for something.
Han Li glanced around before making his way directly toward the teleportation formation at the center of the room.
Before Han Li could say anything, the golden-robed young man smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, please go over there and pay your spirit stones to receive a teleportation talisman. Once we have enough people, we'll be able to teleport."
Han Li looked at where the Youth was pointing. There was a long stone table, and behind the table sat an old man in a golden robe. There were also several people lined up behind the table.
The person at the front of the line was taking out a golden token and a small bag of spirit stones and handing them over.
Seeing this, Han Li's heart moved. He immediately turned and left the teleportation hall.
He came to a secluded alley nearby and strolled around. When he came out, he had transformed into a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion. He then walked directly into the Celestial Inn and came to the place to apply for the Celestial Token.
"State your name and where you are from." A bald old man asked.
"Li Feiyu, from the Jade Mountain Range." Han Li said calmly.
Previously, he set off from Linhai City with the identity of Liu Shi. If someone deliberately wanted to investigate this matter, they might be able to. It was no longer safe to continue using this identity, so it was better to change.
After a while, Han Li came to the white stone tower again, and soon it was his turn.
"Where to?" The golden-robed old man took the Celestial Token from Han Li and asked expressionlessly.
"Red Lake City." Han Li's eyes flickered slightly and said so.
…
Thunder City was located on the easternmost coast of the Wasteland Continent. One step forward and it was the famous Thunderstorm Sea of the Northern Frost Celestial Realm.
The city covered a large area and was located at the hub of the coast. High-level cultivators who wanted to cross the Thunderstorm Sea to go to other continents would naturally gather here.
With such a geographical advantage, Thunder City was extremely prosperous. Although it was not the largest city in the Wasteland Continent, it could be ranked in the top five.
Due to the influence of the Thunderstorm Sea, the sky above the city was as dark as ink all year round. It was covered by thick layers of dark clouds and from time to time, giant bolts of lightning could be seen shuttling through the clouds.
In addition, there was a giant tree that reached into the sky every few kilometers in the city. Each tree was thousands of meters tall, and its entire body was dark purple in color. Lightning patterns could be seen on its leaves and trunk.
The branches of the giant purple trees were extremely lush, like an open giant purple umbrella. The branches resonated with each other and the entire city was covered by the purple leaves.
These giant purple trees were called Thunder Trees. They had the ability to absorb and store the power of lightning and were not afraid of being struck by lightning.
Above the Thunderstorm Sea, there were terrifying thunderstorms all year round. Thunder City was close to the Thunderstorm Sea and was often affected. Without these Thunder Trees, Thunder City would have been destroyed a long time ago.
Other than that, the trees could also store the power of lightning and transform it into lightning, providing the entire city with lightning day and night.
Therefore, in Thunder City, there was no day or night.
In the center of the city, on the first floor of a giant purple tower, more than ten Teleportation Formations were blinking, sending people to and fro.
The first floor of the tower was extremely large, hundreds of zhang wide. However, it was crowded with people.
At this moment, light flashed from one of the teleportation formations, following which a dozen or so humanoid figures emerged. One of them was a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion; it was none other than Han Li, who had disguised himself.
He followed the flow of people and walked out of the Teleportation Hall. Looking at the wide street in front of him, he exhaled in relief.
After several months of hurrying, he had finally reached this place. As long as he could cross the Thunderstorm Sea, he would reach the Ancient Cloud Continent where the Candle Dragon Taoist Path was located.
Although the Thunder Trees were covering the sky, people could still hear the rumbling of thunder from the Ninth Heaven from time to time.
However, most of the people on the streets had normal expressions. It was obvious that they were already used to this kind of situation. Only those who came to Thunder City for the first time would be shocked by the rising and falling sounds of thunder to the point that they felt uneasy.
Naturally, Han Li was not affected by the rumbling of thunder. However, he could not help but look at the cloud-like sea of trees that emitted white lightning.
At this moment, a young voice came into his ears.
"Senior, judging from your appearance, this should be your first time in Thunder City, right?"
When Han Li heard this, he turned to look at the source of the voice. Not far away, a charmingly naive youth cupped his hands in salute towards him.
Seeing that Han Li did not speak, the Youth continued.
"I am Gu Sanming.
The streets in the city are complicated, so it is not convenient to deal with many things. If you need to buy something or find a place, I can help you. "
"Feng Xinzi?
Alright.
Tell me, how can we safely pass through the Sea of Thunderstorms? "Han Li asked expressionlessly.
"Senior... you want to cross the sea?" The naive Youth was slightly surprised.
"Why, can't I?" Han Li frowned.
"No, no. If you want to cross the sea, you have found the right person!
Although my cultivation is low, I have worked for the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce a few years ago. If you want to cross the Thunderstorm Sea, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce's Sea-crossing Thunder Boat is the safest.
If I remember correctly, there will be a Sea-crossing Thunder Boat set sail in two months. There should be a quota now. "
Because Han Li's aura was restrained, the Youth thought that he was just a cultivator who came here to travel. However, after thinking about it, he immediately changed the topic.
"Sea-crossing Thunder Boat?" Han Li raised his eyebrows slightly.
"My apologies. Senior has just arrived in Thunder City, so you are not familiar with the situation here." The naive Youth hurriedly apologized.
"It's alright. Since you are so familiar with the place, tell me about the Sea-crossing Thunder Boat. The more detailed, the better.
If I am satisfied, I will reward you handsomely, "Han Li indifferently said.
Previously, he had learned about the method of crossing the Thunderstorm Sea from some channels. He had indeed heard about the extraordinariness of the Sea-crossing Thunder Boat. Now that he was here, he wanted to learn more about it.
After all, the sea was rumored to be dangerous. Naturally, he had to find a relatively safe way to cross the sea.
"Yes!
The so-called Sea-crossing Thunder Boat is a special flying boat specially made for crossing the Thunderstorm Sea.
The Thunderstorm Sea is full of extremely terrible thunder and lightning all year round. It often forms a huge Thunderstorm Tide, which is comparable to the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation … If an ordinary flying boat enters it, it will be quickly torn apart by the terrible power of the thunder and lightning. However, the Sea-crossing Thunder Boat is made of extremely special thunder-resistant materials. It is plated with a layer of Thunder Tree Membrane, which is a special membrane refined from the sap of the Thunder Tree. No matter how strong the thunderstorm is, it will not be damaged at all. It can safely cross the Thunderstorm Sea … "Hearing this, the naive Youth immediately spoke with confidence with a face full of smiles.
"I see. How many Spirit Stones does it cost to ride this boat?" Han Li nodded slightly and asked.
"Because the Sea-crossing Thunder Boat is the safest, it is naturally not cheap. It costs 500 Top Grade Spirit Stones."
The naive Youth rubbed his hands and said hesitantly. At the same time, he secretly looked at Han Li's face to see the changes in his expression.
"Take me to have a look." Han Li said expressionlessly.
Although he did not see anything from Han Li's expression, if Han Li really wanted to ride the boat, the Chamber of Commerce would give him a big reward because he was the one who made it happen.
(Because the following plot has encountered some bottlenecks, in order to ensure the quality of the manuscript, Wangyu needs to think about it carefully. I can only temporarily update for today and tomorrow!)
