In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed since they arrived in the West Yong City. With the combined efforts of everyone, the reconstruction of the city outside the West Yong City was progressing very smoothly. At present, the entire West Harmony City had already taken shape. It was much more majestic and sturdy than its original form. The marble that was transported from the distant Wasteland constituted the entire stone that was used to construct the outer city. After the outer city was completely constructed, in Jade Wall, Lang Xie, Xi Yong City, and Yi City, West Yong City would become the most solid and unbreakable city, as well as the most expensive city wall. After all, the city was made entirely out of marble, and as far as the human world was concerned, it was only West Yong City.
Looking at the long, sturdy outer city, Yun Jiuchang sometimes wondered if if if all the cities in the human world were built with marble as the walls, then perhaps every city would be safer? However, this was just an extravagant hope. If it really was like this, then the Grand Mysterious Technique would exhaust almost all of the human world's marble. Obviously, this kind of construction price was extremely expensive. To defend against natural and man-made disasters, not only did they need solid fortifications, but most of the time, they also needed people's actions.
With the refurbishment coming to an end, Yun Jiuchang felt that it was time to leave. So where was the next stop? Are we really going to the Eastern Wasteland Penglai? Yun Jiu Tang was still conflicted. Was this too hasty, too rushed? Vaguely, he felt that he was still lacking something.
For the past few days, Yun Jiu Tang's black sword had undergone some subtle changes: in the dead of night, the sword's blade constantly trembled; the dark color on the sword scabbard was slowly fading, bit by bit turning gray; during the day, when he tightly gripped the black sword, he could still feel the sword's body trembling, and sometimes even emitted a slight "dang dang" sound. At that time, in order to quickly subdue Qiong Qi, he had leaped onto Qiong Qi's back and stabbed his black xuan iron sword into the hard and hard horn on Qiong Qi's head. The Qilin horn contained the Qiong Qi Body's poison and raging flames, it had a large amount of penetrative and corrosive properties, able to corrode all fine steel treasured swords. Fortunately, the xuan iron black sword had been used by Yun Jiu Tang the entire time, it absorbed the inner strength from his body, thus it was not completely corroded. But now, the Qiong Qi poison that permeated into the black blade was gradually being exposed. If it was not removed quickly, it would corrode the sword's body until it turned into a pile of scrap metal.
Yun Jiuchang glanced at Murong Yu, "Mayor Murong, you've been travelling all year round and have seen a lot. Where would you find a place to wash your sword?"
"Ha, you really can't make this difficult for me," Murong Ming said complacently. "Of course it's to wash the sword, it's Feng Lin Zhou's Three Thousand Waters. I heard that as long as you forge a treasured sword, it will be tempered with water and become extremely powerful, with years of sharpness." Murong Ming moved closer with an unfathomable expression, "What, you want to wash the sword?"
"I was just casually asking." Yun Jiuchang said.
"That is Miss Xue Luo's territory," Murong Dawn laughed heartily. "It's very easy to go there. She has the final say."
Inadvertently, Gu Xueluo had already arrived by his side. "I'm perfectly fine, why did I suddenly think of Feng Lin Zhou?" Gu Xueluo asked curiously. "Which one of you wants to go to Feng Lin Zhou?"
"You've stayed in the Green Hill's Realm for too long," Yun Jiuchang teased, "You can go take a look at your Feng Lin Zhou any time you want." He chose to speak half-jokingly, and did not directly say that his black xuan iron sword had changed and was about to be in danger.
Yun Jiu Tang was still looking at the black blade in his hand. The mottled sword sheath emitted a dark and deep luster, giving off a sense of time and texture. He recalled how this black xuan iron sword followed him all the way to the demon realm. Back then, the sword that was trapped in the cave of the dead in the depths, buried in the undead in the undead holes, appeared unremarkable and ordinary. Inside the undead cave, his own undead soul had been frozen, but this sword was always by his side, as if it had a mind of its own, knowing how to follow its master, silently protecting the undead cave. Until that year, when Zhu Jiuyin brought his undead to the Infernal Realm. This sword was also possessed by the devil along with him. After entering the Demonic World, the dark blue sword's body gradually faded and became darker. Not long after, it became a dark color, from the sword hilt to the sword blade and then to the sword sheath. He did not know the history of this sword, nor did he know its name, so he named it the Black Iron Sword.
Gu Xueluo looked at Yun Jiuchang. It was rare for him to have the mood to joke around like this. Recently, Xi Yong City's reconstruction was going smoothly, so it should be completed by the deadline. That was why Gu Xueluo was in high spirits. Jiu Tang, you can't really be thinking of going to the Phoenix Kylin Continent, right? "
"Of course, what's there to joke about. Moreover, it's not like Feng Lin Zhou is as scary as the Great Wastelands or Great Wastelands. Could there be any other traps or dangers?" Yun Jiu Tang thought to himself, she should do her best to not let Gu Xueluo know about the Black Iron Sword, otherwise it would scare her again.
Gu Xueluo walked in front of Yun Jiu Tang, "There must be a reason why you want to go to the so-called Feng Lin Continent, right?" Gu Xue Luo looked at the familiar face of Yun Jiu Tang, "Although the Immortal World isn't as dangerous as the Great Wastelands and Wastelands, it isn't as ethereal as you think it is. It is exactly the same as the scenery of the human world, but it is much more inferior compared to the magnificent life of the human world."
Murong Dawn came closer and blinked his eyes. "Sigh, don't lie to us. We're only going to the Feng Lin Continent, not the Kunlun Ruins where Li Daohuan is. What is there to forbid about …"
Yun Jiu Tang pretended to be mysterious as he stopped and muttered, "I heard that the Immortal World is very hospitable, right?"
In response to Yun Jiu Tang's baffling question, Gu Xue Luo and Murong Ming looked at each other and nodded, almost at the same time saying, "That's right!" That gaze seemed to be saying, "What does it have to do with being a hospitable guest of the Immortal World?"
Of course …" Yun Jiuchang smiled, his valiant features flaring up at the touch. "Of course I have one …" "He looked at Gu Xueluo with joy in his eyes, and was slightly surprised." Could it be that you don't know?
"What do I know?" Gu Xueluo was completely confused by his words. "Jiu Tang, what's wrong with you? Your words are really confusing." Gu Xueluo looked at him in astonishment, and thought that his mind had gone into disorder.
Anxiety appeared on Yun Jiuchang's face as he frowned, "Why are all of you so stubborn? You don't even know such a big thing," Yun Jiuchang knocked on the table forcefully, "At the end of the month, Jade Lake, in the Immortal World, is going to gather together …" His eyes slightly raised up, as if he was reminding the two of them.
Murong Ming's mouth was wide open as he slapped his thigh. "That's right, why didn't I think of it? As a person gets old, so are my memories …"
Yun Jiu Tang and Gu Xue Luo looked at Murong Yu's exaggerated expression and asked in confusion, "You've never participated in it before, right? It's normal for you not to know!"
As if he had been exposed, Murong Ming's face stiffened as his eyes widened. The cheeks on both sides swelled up as he said, "Can you not always expose my secrets, please?"
Gu Xueluo's expression turned solemn. Only after what Yun Jiu Tang said, did she remember that it was indeed the end of the month. She hadn't returned to the Immortal World for so many years, so how could she have forgotten such an important event?
Yun Jiu Tang saw Gu Xueluo's dejection and softly said: "Xueluo, you haven't stepped into the Immortal World for 12 years, right? You haven't even been to Feng Lin Zhou, so it's normal for you to not remember that Jade Dragon Pool's Sage Gathering. "I think that we should go take a look this time. After all, that is the Immortal World that you have stayed in for many years. It would be good if we could return to your Feng Lin Zhou and take a look …"
Yun Jiuchang remembered that this Heavenly Jade Lake Conference of the Immortal World would be held every 12 years, meaning it would be held once a year. Back then, when Nuwa had founded the Immortal World, she had prayed to the heavens for the grace of the Heavenly Mother, who had given birth to her life in that pool. This sort of pious, pious worship had lasted for many years. Later on, as the Immortal World grew more and more powerful, Nuwa invited the Supreme Elders of the Six Realms to come to the Immortal World to discuss meetings every year. In terms of form, they were no longer restricted to worshiping the heavens, but had instead increased the number of important matters discussed by the leaders of the six realms, enjoying the night scenery of Bi Yao, drinking the Bi Yao Immortal Water, and so on. In terms of convening time, it was changed from once a year to once every twelve years, corresponding to a rotating year. This year, it had just been 12 years, and this gathering of sages was the largest in history. For this reason, the Immortal World had sent a wide range of invitations to the six realms.
Yun Jiu Tang knew that the Immortal World had organized such a great gathering of sages, but he didn't inform Gu Xue Luo, the carefree Heavenly Immortal of the Immortal World. The gap between Gu Xue Luo and the Immortal World was growing deeper. After all, Gu Xueluo had isolated herself in the Spirit World for ten years because of the fifth hidden spirit. After leaving the valley, she had also entered the Immortal World for the past two years, but she hadn't even gone back to visit the Feng Lin Continent that she lived in. Even though Li Jiuhuan, the leader of the Immortal Realm, had also requested for Gu Xueluo to return to the Immortal World several times, Gu Xueluo had never given him an answer. In her heart, her feelings for Li Jiuhuan's unwillingness to save the fifth hidden spirit were gradually fading away from her concern and yearning for the Immortal World. In the two years since he had left the valley, Yun Jiu Tang had always been by Gu Xue Luo's side. He knew that the word 'Immortal Realm' was a deeply mixed knot in Gu Xue Luo's heart and it was still messy.
In Yun Jiu Tang's view, this Jadeite Lake Gathering was extraordinary. Over the past twelve years, the Six Realms had undergone a subtle and bizarre transformation. Each of them had their own thoughts and contradictions, and conflicts of interest were unceasing. Therefore, this time, the gathering of the six realms would definitely bring all sorts of conflicts to the table. As a result, the conflicts between the various realms would inevitably become clear. Yun Jiu Tang thought that it was not just the contradictions between different realms, but the Six Realms Federation's attitude towards Qiong Qi, the pursuit of the Twilight Jade Flower, the injection of true essence into the Six Realms and other major matters was clear and unified. Regardless of whether they had ulterior motives, it was at the very least an overt unity and approval. Therefore, regardless of the reason, this Sage Gathering could not be left out.
Gu Xueluo thought for a moment, and also considered the strong relationship between them. Her brows slightly raised, "Of course we're going, how can we miss the once every 12 years Immortal World Meet?" She suddenly turned serious, "We not only want to go, but we also want to actively make noise. We want to expose the dirty work done in other worlds …"
Seeing Gu Xueluo's righteous indignation, Murong Ming hurriedly explained, "Ah, let's just go out and play. If it's better to avoid trouble, then it's not a quarrel assembly. People with status and position are gathered together, so it's not proper to argue." Murong Mingtian's teasing made the two of them laugh.
As expected by Yun Jiu Tang, the Immortal World had sent a large number of messengers over the past few days to gather in various realms. All of a sudden, the six realms were in an uproar. Everyone was in high spirits as they looked forward to this grand event.
Soon, it was the end of spring.
The capital of the Immortal World, the Kunlun Ruins, was bustling with noise and excitement. The fairyland that used to be ethereal, cold and distant had now become bustling with noise and bustle. This time, Li Juehuan had invited the leaders of the demon realm, devil realm, spirit realm, and spirit realm as well as a few famous disciples from different realms. Thus, the number of people participating in this meeting was the highest among all the previous sessions.
This was also Yun Jiu Tang's first time coming to the Immortal World. Before this, he had only entered and exited the Demonic World's Heavenly Mu Ye, QIng Qiu Mountain, and Spirit Realm's Spirit Chuan. Only when he was in the Immortal World's Kunlun Ruins could he truly feel that ethereal, boundless, and primal feeling. This place seemed to be shrouded in a drifting mist all year round, and the air was filled with crystal and glistening dewdrops. The sunlight here never got too far or too close, and always stayed at the same distance, warm and normal all year round.
All the heroes of the Six Realms gathered outside the shrine in the Kunlun Ruins. They were enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Immortal World as they chatted and laughed merrily. While Yun Jiu Tang was shuttling back and forth with Murong Twilight, he would stop and take the fruit plates that the fairies brought over. The immortal fruits within were all things that Murong Yu had never heard of before. He looked at them and savored them curiously.
From time to time, Yun Jiuchang would turn his head and berate in a low voice, "Hurry up, don't be greedy anymore …" We still have big things to do? " After saying that, he pulled on Murong Ming's arm and quickly walked out.
"It's rare to see so many delicious immortal fruits, but you're not going to taste them?" Murong Ming's mouth was filled with fruits, and his cheeks were puffed up, but he continued to stuff grapes into his mouth. "Shall we go to the weak water now?"
"Shh!" Keep it down! " Yun Jiuchang covered Murong Dawn's mouth with his hand, and after looking left and right, he walked out of the hall in a hurry.
The two finally escaped from the crowded shrine, but they bumped into Gu Xueluo. She stood quietly on the path that the two had to take, "You two are in such a hurry, where are you going?" Gu Xueluo asked with deep meaning in her voice.
In the end, Murong Dawn's reaction was still fast. He rolled his eyes and said, "Aiya, it's hurting again." He took the opportunity to hold onto Yun Jiuchang's shoulder, "I say why does the taste of this fruit seem so weird? Why does it make my stomach ache just from eating it? Hurry …" Fast... "I can't hold it in anymore …" He had a pained expression on his face, as if he was suffering from diarrhea.
At first, Yun Jiu Tang didn't react, but she quickly supported Murong Ming, "That's right, I said the immortal fruits aren't fresh, yet you still want to eat more? You must have eaten a bad stomach …"
Murong Dawn looked at Gu Xueluo and frowned. "Miss Xueluo, really …" "He really has diarrhea …"
Gu Xueluo pursed her lips and giggled, "Alright, you two stop pretending, you don't even know how to lie," she sauntered over to the two, "How can you say that the immortal fruits aren't fresh? These are all top quality products from the Immortal World, harvested once every hundred years." "Then, what are you planning to do?"
Seeing that Gu Xueluo was serious, Murong Ming quickly turned his head to the side. Helpless, Yun Jiuchang braced himself, "We're going to the weak waters of the Phoenix Kylin Continent!"
"Weak water?!" Gu Xueluo was surprised. "What are you guys doing there!"
"Wash the sword!"
Gu Xueluo looked at the black blade held tightly in Yun Jiu Tang's hand. "Why didn't you say so earlier!?" Quick, follow me! "
