Chapter 721: Heading to Guangyun Immortal City

Seeing the token offered by Feng Yunhao, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not refuse.

They could see that the other party clearly wanted to form a good relationship with them.

At the same time, they had a rough guess in their hearts about the matter of having a strong backing that Feng Yunhao had just mentioned.

Then, Jiang Chengxuan smiled and said,

“Fellow Daoist Feng, I wonder if you have a general introduction of the various sects and families?

If so, could you provide us with some information or introduce some to us?

Feng Yunhao certainly would not refuse Jiang Chengxuan’s request.

He took out a jade slip from his possession and handed it to Jiang Chengxuan with a smile,

“Here, this jade slip contains information on many sects and families in our Celestial Floodgate Realm. You can take a look.

Also, if you don’t have any other matters now, you might as well head to Guangyun Immortal City first. I happen to be free and can take you there.”

Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan agreed to Feng Yunhao’s suggestion after some thought.

Having just arrived in Celestial Floodgate Realm, they were unfamiliar with the place and indeed needed someone like Feng Yunhao to guide them, which would save them a lot of energy and time.

Soon, the three of them, led by Feng Yunhao, headed towards Guangyun

Immortal City.

Along the way, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan observed their surroundings.

It had to be said that the difference between the Spiritual Realm and the lower realm was huge, be it in terms of environment or other things.

Take the mountain ranges around them, for example – their scope, height, scale, and the creatures living within them were not something that the lower realm’s mountain ranges could compare to.

And this was still just a relatively remote area of the entire Celestial Floodgate Realm.

It was hard to imagine how majestic and lofty the mountains in the center of the Celestial Floodgate Realm would be.

“Fellow Daoists, the area where our Eastern Sky Ascension Platform is located belongs to the jurisdiction of the State of Lingji.

From here to Guangyun Immortal City, with our speed, it will take about a month,” Feng Yunhao explained to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.

Hearing this, both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were somewhat surprised.

It would take a month to reach Guangyun Immortal City at their speed, which spoke to the vast distance involved.

This distance was probably equivalent to flying from the northern border to the central plain of their Nine Essences cultivation world, and then from the central plain to the western desert, back and forth.

This suggested that just one state in the Celestial Floodgate Realm might be larger than the entirety of the Nine Essences cultivation world.

However, this seemed reasonable.

If the Spiritual Realm did not have such a vast area and extensive resources, how could it support the cultivation needs of so many cultivators above Soul Formation?

As Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, accompanied by Feng Yunhao, made their way to Guangyun Immortal City, the news of their ascension from the Nine Essences cultivation world in the Dustless Lower Realm also spread among certain cultivators tasked with such matters.

Suddenly, many who received this news started heading towards Guangyun Immortal City.

Obviously, these people all knew that cultivators who ascended to the Eastern Sky Ascension Platform from the lower realm would generally first head to Guangyun Immortal City.

Especially cultivators like Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who didn’t belong to any sect or family in the Celestial Floodgate Realm.

It was even less likely for them to head directly to other places.

That’s because only there would they find people specifically responsible for recruiting disciples for their sects.

As for newly ascended cultivators not planning to join any sect or power, this possibility was unlikely.

It’s not that there were no independent cultivators in the Spiritual Realm, but even among them, there’s almost always a powerful master or elder backing them.

Truly independent cultivators without any support were rare because, without such backing, their potential down the cultivation path was limited.

After all, the Spiritual Realm was far more brutal and challenging than the lower realms by hundreds or even thousands of times.

During their subsequent conversation with Feng Yunhao, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan gradually understood this point.

So.

They didn’t plan to wander the Spiritual Realm as independent cultivators but intended to follow Feng Yunhao’s advice and seek a sect to join first.

As for which sect to join, they had several ideas in mind, but the final decision would still depend on the actual situation at the time.

A month quickly passed.

On this day.

As Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Feng Yunhao flew over another plain, a towering city loomed ahead, its walls reaching into the clouds.

The height of the walls alone seemed to stretch thousands of feet, standing like a colossal giant, exuding an overwhelmingly majestic aura.

The entire surface of the city walls was engraved with intricate and mysterious runes, shimmering with a beautiful yet dangerous presence.

It was clear that any unwise attackers would instantly face the wrath of those runes.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

With the sound of whooshing through the air, the trio finally approached the magnificent city.

Feng Yunhao casually produced a token engraved with the character “Huang”, and the Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the city gate immediately bowed and stepped aside.

After they entered the city, one of the mid-stage Nascent Soul men said, “If I’m not mistaken, that should be Elder Feng from the Huangji Sect who just went in, right?

I heard the Eastern Sky Ascension Platform he’s in charge of had two rather special ascendants.

This news has already alarmed many seniors within the city.

It seems those two ascendants will receive numerous invitations from large sects this time.”

Abearded late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator added,

“That’s for sure. Haven’t you seen that all the ascendants who managed to ascend to our Celestial Floodgate Realm have always been sought after by many large sects and families?

Not to mention those two seem to be quite unique.

I guess even the overlord level sects might be tempted to recruit them this time.”

“How could this be…?”

Hearing the bearded man’s words, the other Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the gate were somewhat surprised.

The mid-stage Nascent Soul man then asked, “Brother Zhao, do you know why?

Why are those ascendants from the lower realm so highly valued by the large sects, even by the super sects? What’s the reason behind this?”
