Chapter 597: Enters the city

With Jin Li True Monarch's strength, many forces want to win her over. She could easily capitalize on this and strive for the greatest benefit. Though doing so might be a bit unscrupulous and even betray the True Monarch Azure Mist, who once helped her out of a predicament, such behavior is the norm in the Cultivation World.

No matter how high one's Cultivation Base is, to survive for long, they must learn to weigh the pros and cons and adapt to changing circumstances. Of course, no matter how long the road, there will be an end to it. Even if one intentionally delays, by early March, everyone still arrives at Jiuqu City.

Standing at the bow of the flying boat, looking at the forward Jiuqu City, the members of Taiyi Sect, who are here for the first time, are all shocked. Some of the lower-level disciples are even stunned. Jiuqu City appears like an endless mountain, towering on the northern bank of Jiuqu River.

The entire city rises and falls, with its highest point exceeding a thousand zhang. In the sky above the city, flying boats are almost constantly taking off or descending from high altitudes. Great Wind City, a bustling commercial city, is already prosperous enough. However, compared to Jiuqu City, it seems like a small rural town.

As they approach Jiuqu City, all flying boats must slow down and proceed carefully according to regulations. The Taiyi Sect's flying boat, following behind the Lu Family and Gu Yue Family Cloud Boat, approaches Jiuqu City slowly. The cultivators on the flying boat have enough time to admire the magnificent scenery surrounding Jiuqu City.

In the nearby sky of Jiuqu City, teams of patrol flying boats occasionally pass by, carefully inspecting the incoming and outgoing boats. Within Jiuqu City, there is a Primordial Spirit True Monarch who usually resides, and the city is also concentrated with the elite cultivators of the entire Jiuqu League.

For many years, there have been very few cultivators daring to cause trouble in the vicinity of Jiuqu City. These patrol cultivators mainly maintain order and security, and they don't intentionally trouble the normal incoming and outgoing flying boats.

Great Wind City is a well-known commercial city within the entire Jiuqu League, and the Lu Family and Gu Yue Family that hold power in Great Wind City are even more renowned. After all, there are only a limited number of Primordial Spirit True Monarchs in the Jiuqu League, and the Gold Core families and sects are the backbone of the league.

The patrol cultivators around recognize the banners of Great Wind City's Lu Family and Gu Yue Family, and they signal from afar without coming to inspect.

Such treatment is entirely normal for these long-established cultivation families.

Meng Zhang didn't expect Taiyi Sect, an outsider, to make a big impact in Jiuqu City. His plan was to secure a storefront to serve as a base for Taiyi Sect, which would be satisfactory.

The members of Taiyi Sect were well-received and arranged in a separate courtyard by Gu Yue Family. Additionally, Gu Yue Huaidie assigned some of the tribe members familiar with Jiuqu City to act as their guides.

Over a year ago, Azure Origin Sect had actively spread news of the upcoming grand ceremony and invited various influential forces to attend. To be qualified to participate in the Primordial Spirit True Monarch's grand ceremony, cultivators had to be either prominent figures within their factions or loose cultivators with formidable cultivation bases. These cultivators often lived scattered across different regions, and it wasn't always possible for them to gather together.

Jiuqu City was already a bustling metropolis, and this event brought together numerous visiting cultivators, including many high-ranking ones. The various Shang Families from Great Wind City seized this rare opportunity to conduct numerous commercial activities. Especially the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, a top-notch business guild within the Jiuqu League, prepared many events, including high-level auctions.

Under the guidance of certain individuals, countless private trading events were held among the cultivators from different regions.

As a secluded sect in Demon Wind Gobi, Taiyi Sect would naturally not miss this opportunity. Before sending a message to Jin Li True Monarch in Great Wind City regarding the details of the grand ceremony, Gu Yue Huaidie had also warned Meng Zhang about the upcoming trading extravaganza.

Meng Zhang had prepared a large number of spirit stones in advance for shopping in Great Wind City. On the flying boat, they had also loaded plenty of spirit materials, including some unique ones from Demon Wind Gobi and Endless Sea of Sand, to participate in the barter-based trading events.

Shortly after settling down, Meng Zhang and the other cultivators from Taiyi Sect left the mansion in Great Wind City and began strolling around Jiuqu City.
