Chapter 371: Chapter 369 Heavenly Sword Sacred Land
"Shu’er, the journey to the Holy Land is long and you’re not to act willfully on the way. Make sure to listen to your second uncle, and do not..."
"Father, you’ve said it eight hundred times now, I really remember it."
Yu Shu stuck out her tongue, clearly impatient.
Thud!
Emperor Yu flicked his finger and hit Yu Shu right on the forehead.
"Ah! That hurts."
Yu Shu held her head, glaring at Emperor Yu.
"Let the pain remind you well. The Holy Land is not like Heavenly Sea Country; you have no status to rely upon there. The ancestor has been in seclusion for a long time and rarely comes out, so you must think thrice before acting." Emperor Yu admonished.
"Oh! I understand."
Yu Shu nodded, understanding the reasoning.
Emperor Yu turned to Zhong Lin and said, "Young friend Zhong, Shu’er’s nature is quite unruly and willful, so when you arrive at the Holy Land, I hope you could look after her."
"Your Majesty, there’s no need to worry. If there’s a need, I certainly won’t stand by idly," Zhong Lin replied respectfully.
"Thank you very much."
Emperor Yu gave a few more instructions to Yu Chi. Yu Shu then embraced and wept with the Empress for a full hour before the three eventually boarded the flying boat.
Many of the Imperial Family members had come to see them off, their faces a mix of emotions.
Some looked envious, some curious, and some eager to curry favor.
As for any overt hostility, there was none to speak of.
The news of Yu Shu reaching the Second Grade level in alchemy had long spread. She’s seen as someone with a hopeful future to enter the King Realm. Even if she couldn’t break through to the King Realm, achieving the Life and Death Realm would be a cinch. Facing such a gem of a potential sister, it’s only natural to want to befriend her instead of showing hostility.
With the flying boat shaking beneath, the three ascended into the clouds, transforming into a streak of purple light that vanished into the sky.
...
The Eastern Desolate is vast, and even just the Sword Domain of the Ten Domains would take a lifetime for ordinary people to traverse. Yu Chi piloted the flying boat and made use of the transmission arrays, and it still took them a good month.
The trio continuously moved eastward, taking five days to leave Heavenly Sea Country and enter Huayang Country. They then used Huayang Country’s transmission arrays to enter Taigu Country. Using the transmission stations three times, they spent nearly a month before arriving at the base of a sprawling mountain range.
"Ahead lies the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, Shu’er. With this token, you may directly enter the Inner Sect, but remember, the Holy Land is not like Heavenly Sea Country. Without sufficient power, don’t stir up trouble." Yu Chi spoke solemnly.
Yu Shu nodded, "Got it."
"However, if someone does provoke you, there’s no need to endure it meekly. Although our Heavenly Sea Country ranks low among the 136 countries within the Sword Domain, we can’t be bullied by just anyone. Many members from our Imperial Family are in the Holy Land and will certainly watch over you."
"Mm."
"Young friend Zhong, with this token, you can head to the city ahead for an assessment. I hope your martial journey prospers."
Yu Chi handed over a golden token.
Zhong Lin received it with both hands, bowed, and said, "Thank you, Yu Family’s great kindness will not be forgotten, and will surely be repaid handsomely in the future."
The flying boat stopped, and looking out, one could see countless towering peaks piercing the sky, arrow-straight, amidst the endless mountain range. Some peaks were blooming with flowers, and numerous palaces were built upon them.
Countless thousand-foot waterfalls cascaded down from the peaks, like countless jade dragons, flowing beautifully.
The sky was as blue as blue crystal, never a trace of dark clouds, with the bright and gentle sun shining down perfectly spotless.
The hundreds and thousands of peaks were covered with sprawling ancient pine trees, exuding a primordial aura.
In the deepest part of these peaks, amidst swirling mist and clouds, there seemed to be a gigantic floating city like a mirage, making one feel they had arrived in the Immortal Realm.
Zhong Lin was stunned as he gazed at the scene akin to a heavenly palace paradise, overwhelmed by an intrinsic sense of awe.
"So beautiful."
Yu Shu, too, looked in a daze at everything before her, momentarily lost in fascination.
"See this? This is the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land,"
Yu Chi, having seen this scene often, looked at Zhong Lin and Yu Shu’s awe-struck expressions with an air of amusement.
However, he said nothing more, recalling how the first time he came to the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, he was too astonished to know what to say, no better than Zhong Lin and Yu Shu.
"Let’s go! We should first pay our respects to the ancestor at Heavenly Sea Peak."
With that said, he steered the flying boat toward the mountain gate in the distance.
The so-called Heavenly Sea Peak is one of the many peaks in the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land and serves as the base for the Imperial Family of Heavenly Sea Country. Generally, those from the Imperial Family who come to apprentice would be part of this peak.
The strongest on this peak is the ancestor Yu Hong from the Yu family, with a Life and Death Realm cultivation.
Before even nearing the mountain gate, two figures descended from the clouds, both appearing no older than twenty-one or twenty-two, clad in white robes with treasure swords upon their backs. Most importantly, their presence indicated they were Transcendent Realm martial artists with Spiritual Body condensed.
"Who are you coming to the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land? State your name."
The young disciple on the left spoke.
"Disciples sent from the Yu family of Heavenly Sea Country under the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land, here to apprentice. Please, envoy, inspect."
Although the two before him were only Yunling Realm martial artists, Yu Chi approached them respectfully, presenting two tokens, not daring to show any arrogance.
"Alright, indeed the token of our Heavenly Sea Peak of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land. Once inside, head straight to Heavenly Sea Peak and do not wander elsewhere."
The young martial artist inspected slightly and nodded.
Then he turned his head to look at Zhong Lin and said, "As for you, I will take you to Heavenly Sword City for the assessment."
Their tokens were different; Yu Shu didn’t need to undergo an assessment and could directly enter the Inner Sect, whereas Zhong Lin needed to participate in the assessment. Even if he succeeded, he would still become an Outer Disciple.
After all, the Yu family is one of the 136 royal families under the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land rule, thus granting them special privileges.
"Shu’er, Zhong Lin, then off you go!"
Seeing this scene, Yu Chi finally felt assured.
Zhong Lin turned around and saluted Yu Chi once more, then stepped into the sky.
"Junior Brother Jin Bo, I’ll escort this junior sister to Heavenly Sea Peak. You take him to Heavenly Sword City."
The young man speaking addressed his partner.
"Sure, follow me."
The disciple called Jin Bo gestured for Zhong Lin to follow.
"Zhong Lin, once you pass the assessment, you must visit me at Heavenly Sea Peak!" Yu Shu shouted.
"Alright."
Zhong Lin nodded, then flew towards Jin Bo.
"Let’s go!"
Jin Bo flew ahead, controlling the wind, with Zhong Lin following closely.
The scenery of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land was fully revealed now with towering peaks, lush with ancient pines and cypresses, cascading waterfalls, and countless palaces perched along the mountainsides,
Along with various spiritual beasts roaming, with Immortal Cranes, Rocs, White Deer, Jade Rabbits, Peacocks...
Amidst the swirling clouds and mist, it truly felt like a fairyland, making it hard to leave.
