A life of clearness

Chapter 49 Dasi
Rong Qing flew through the clouds with her sword. Although she would slightly adjust the flying state of the sword according to the wind pressure, the overall flight path was still straight and smooth. She liked it this way.

As far as the eye can see, there are large patches of clouds. Just as you pass through one, you will be trapped in another the next moment.

The cloud was so dense that it felt like being in another dimension, but Rong Qing felt at ease in it, like a fish in water.

Just like a cat would crawl into a small box to feel safe, Rong Qing was the same. In the cloud, she also felt an indescribable sense of freedom.

Following the route given by Yun Tong, it was indeed fast. There was no need to bother exploring the periphery of many forces, and one could fly freely with the sword. Rong Qing couldn't help but ponder Yun Tong's expression and words just now.

"Originally, the three-day deadline made him a little anxious, but the mention of Wuwang Sea made him calm down. Could it be that he thought that he would have a better chance of turning the tables in Wuwang Sea?" Rong Qing narrowed her eyes, "Interesting, it seems that he got more than just a sea chart, maybe some notes from the original owner of the sea chart. In any case, he has confidence, which is a good thing for me."

Rong Qing was most worried that Yun Tong would retreat to Cangliuzhou. She was alone and didn't want to face two Jindan and one foundation-building cultivator. Therefore, she did not lie to Yun Tong, but she also concealed some things.

For example, why did she just talk about the place and day of the tribulation when she and Zhong Qiu were in sympathy through the restriction? In just four sentences, what Rong Qing and others wanted to know was clearly stated.

Just right? I'm afraid not.

Rong Qing felt that she had just attached her five senses to Zhong Qiu and was discovered by him. This judgment made her feel cold after she regained her mind, and she was still frightened until now. This restriction used for backtracking was rare, so Rong Qing was full of confidence at the beginning. But now it was like a blow to the head, telling her not to underestimate the monks outside the Arctic Snow Mountain. The strength of the ghost-faced monk and his group became more and more unfathomable in her eyes.

She needed the help of Yun Tong and others, so she had to conceal her judgment and prevent Yun Tong from backing down.

Thinking more deeply about the conversation between the barefoot man and Zhong Qiu, since it was said deliberately for her to hear, it must be true.

"We want to take advantage of the situation, but the other side also wants to lure us out and catch us all in one fell swoop." Rong Qing felt that the situation was random. With her experience of cultivating to the half-step transformation of the spirit, the barefoot man's condition had indeed reached the critical point, plus the huge amount of life energy he was absorbing all the time... "The time is not false, and as for the location, it is likely that it will not be changed for our group of people. Well, since there is no way to take shortcuts, we will just fight."

Thinking more deeply, Rong Qing's current judgment was probably within their expectations. Whether she and Yun Tong went or not, they had already set up their formations... In terms of both intelligence and force, in Rong Qing's opinion, they had reached the peak of their Golden Core Stage.

No matter how turbulent her heart was, Rong Qing's expression did not change, but she flew the sword faster and faster. The huge sound of breaking wind was suppressed by the formation surrounding the flying sword under her feet into a buzzing sound. A white line was clearly drawn in the undulating clouds.

As the tall city gate gradually appeared in her field of vision, she leaned forward slightly, and followed the sword down, slanting down like a falling star. But unlike a meteor, this falling momentum was completely under Rong Qing's control. Originally, it was fierce, but under her control from time to time, the sword suddenly paused, and with each pause, the falling speed suddenly decreased, until finally, it landed like a feather.

There was a monument in front of the city gate, with golden threads extending from the monument and surrounding the city wall. Anyone who entered the range of this monument could no longer fly, regardless of whether they were minor cultivators who used flying tools or Nascent Soul cultivators who could fly in the air.

This rule must be followed by everyone. Rong Qing also retracted the flying sword early and walked calmly into the scope of this monument.

Most of the forces outside the city were developed out of necessity by cultivators who could not afford to supply the cave dwellings in the city. Rong Qing took a quick look and saw that the highest level of cultivation was only at the early stage of the Golden Core.

They were in groups of three or four. If they were close, they would talk to each other. If they were not on good terms, they would avoid each other from a distance. Rong Qing saw that when they entered the city gate, they all threw their certificates into the suspended formation, and followed suit, taking out her own certificate from the storage bag.

The location of the suspended formation was not crowded, and Rong Qing did not rush ahead. She waited until there was no one else in front of her, then threw the scarlet talisman paper folded into a triangle into the formation.

To her, this formation was quite similar to the vertical vortex that appeared with the inspector when she entered the continent. The difference was that this formation was more like a mirror, lacking the ability of the vortex to attract the line of sight.

As soon as the certificate fell into the formation, it melted and disappeared. Rong Qing followed closely behind and stepped into the formation.

As if she had penetrated a layer of water curtain, Rong Qing's vision changed drastically. Noisy voices came from all directions. Although it was not the secular world, she felt a little noisy in the world of mortals.

The scarlet talisman paper fell from her eyes. She caught it and it was her entry certificate.

"Don't block the exit." Someone behind said. Rong Qing smiled, turned aside and said sorry. Without stopping, she stepped into the crowd coming and going.

There is more than one entrance, and the residents in the city didn't even glance at the people who suddenly appeared at this entrance.

The wide streets were crowded with people, and Jindan and foundation-building cultivators were everywhere. Tall buildings stood on both sides. The huge fireflies outside the city were domesticated by cultivators, and at this moment, they were floating above the head. They were the size of a fingernail, very round and cute.

"No wonder Yun Tong is so proud of his identity as a cultivator from Cangliuzhou." Rong Qing thought to himself, "He is indeed worthy of pride."

From what Rong Qing had seen, there were very few cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. According to the map Yun Tong had given her, there were many markets in the city. If we calculated based on the current flow of people, the number of cultivators in the Golden Core Stage alone in Cangliuzhou would be extremely terrifying. Although we hadn't seen any Yuanying Zhenjun at the moment, we could calculate based on the ratio, and there should be quite a few.

"If I were to say which city I've been to is comparable to this place, it would be the Tianyin Division." Rong Qing compared silently, "But the quality of the cultivators here is not as good as this one, and there are still many in the Qi Refining Stage."

Although Rong Qing spent most of the year in the Arctic Snow Mountain, she had also trained in the secret realm twice. Not only did she know about the forces outside of the Liuguang Sword Sect, she had even been there in person. The Tianyin Division was well-known in the North, and the name of the city where it was located was diluted by its fame. Ordinary people only needed to say Tianyin Division to refer to the place where it was located.

The Tianyin Division has existed for a very long time. When the Ji Dynasty in the north still existed, it was already famous in the imperial capital. Even though the previous leader of the Liuguang Sword Sect destroyed the Ji Dynasty with one sword, the Tianyin Division has never fallen until today.

"It is said that the master of Tianyin Division has reached more than the level of Divine Transformation, which is the only way that Tianyin Division has been able to stand firm. But this... is complete nonsense. There are quite a few Divine Transformation cultivators in Liuguang Sword Sect." As for the information above, because of the limitations of Rong Qing's cultivation, she knew very little.

There was nothing she could do about it. Sometimes she would envy others for learning great arts early on, but she hadn't even finished deconstructing the arts in her hands, so she was just envious.

When it comes to spiritual practice, everyone is on their own and you have to take one step at a time. There is no other way.

"Think of it in a positive way. Maybe the training in the Sword Sect is more systematic and correct than what others learn." Rong Qing encouraged herself silently, but she did not stop and walked towards the market where she was going.

At this moment, a louder noise suddenly came from the distance, and even spread towards Rong Qing.

At first, she didn't understand, but soon, Rong Qing understood what others were talking about.

It is more intuitive to see.

The huge palace floated in from afar, as slow as it could go, with pavilions and ponds all around it, all glittering. Even the huge bands of fireflies gathered together did not dare to compete with it.

This scene... Rong Qing was a little puzzled, and raised her hand to catch the petals floating down from above. These petals were transformed by magic, and although they were beautiful, they had no offensive power. When she touched them with her hand, she touched nothing.

Rong Qing had never seen anyone in her life who loved to make a big show and had to have a large crowd of people watching.

"How many spirit stones did it cost to come here?" The people around were talking about it.

“At least it’s based on top-grade spirit stones. However, the one who can fly in the city is at least a Nascent Soul True Lord, we can’t compare with them.” Someone replied sourly.

"With this style, even if he is a Yuanying Zhenjun, the power behind him is very powerful. But I haven't heard of any Zhenjun like this in the continent?"

"It is said that," the person who spoke was cautious and spoke in a low voice. He was unwilling to even transmit his voice, and it seemed that he really wanted to share it with everyone. "The visitor is the chief of the Tianyin Division, a big shot specially received by the inspectors."

Tianyinsi Dashi? Rong Qing looked strange when she heard this. It really was her...
