Chapter 533: Rest

"Let's go!"

After everyone had entered the flying boat, Xue Yu stepped into it, piloting the vessel as it sped off in the direction of the Eastern Extreme Province.

Watching the flying boat disappear into the distance, many sentimental cultivators in Dongxuan City began to discuss the matter:

"Alas! What an eventful autumn!"

"A branch city has just been destroyed so suddenly? I fear many people fell this time, right? I wonder if our applications to transfer to the various branch cities for development were the right choice or not?"

"Branch cities are certainly dangerous, but Star Fall Continent no longer has any potential for development. If we don't want to fall behind others, applying to transfer out of Star Fall Continent is an inevitable choice."

"But why have those core members remained completely unmoved, without the slightest intention of transferring out of Star Fall Continent?"

"Perhaps the City Lord has his own considerations! In any case, the City Lord allowing us to transfer out of Star Fall Continent to develop in the various branch cities at least gave us the right to choose."

"That is indeed true. I am just worried that the destruction of the Eastern Extreme Dongxuan City was not an accident, but that other forces are specifically targeting our Dongxuan City."

"If that is truly the case, I fear the crisis for the other branch cities will also greatly increase, right?"

"Stop scaring yourself. How vast is the Eastern Extreme Domain? Which force could spread across the entire Eastern Extreme Domain and threaten all of our Dongxuan City's branch cities?"

"Besides, with the City Lord and the several Dongxuan Envoys present, who would dare to target our Dongxuan City so unscrupulously?"

"That is also true. Thinking so much is useless. Now that Dongxuan Envoy Xue Yu and Senior Li have set out, we will see the final result when the time comes!"

Amidst the discussions, the many cultivators in the center of the Dongxuan City plaza began to slowly disperse.

As these cultivators gathered in the central plaza dispersed.

Not long after, the news that the branch city established by Dongxuan City in the Eastern Extreme Province had been destroyed began to spread across the entire Star Fall Continent at an extremely fast speed, transmitted by spies from other forces remaining in Dongxuan City.

Moreover, after a day of brewing, guided by certain people with ulterior motives, Dongxuan City began to feel like a storm was coming in the eyes of other cultivators in Star Fall Continent.

This eerie atmosphere even began to affect the many cultivators under Dongxuan City, causing quite a few to develop an inexplicable sense of crisis.

On Mount Wanling, Ye Qingxuan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the world outside Dongxuan City, and smiled slightly:

"Interesting!"

He was naturally aware of the various changes in the outside world, and he could even clearly sense that a Void Penetration Realm aura had begun to spread within the Star Fall Continent, which had been gradually calming down over these years.

Ye Qingxuan guessed that either a Void Penetration Realm powerhouse from the Gui Sect in the Eastern Extreme Province had come to Star Fall Continent, preparing to find a suitable opportunity to strike at Dongxuan City.

Or, Void Penetration Realm powerhouses from the other major forces of Star Fall Continent had returned to Star Fall Continent ahead of schedule.

After learning that the Eastern Extreme Dongxuan City had been destroyed, they wanted to use this opportunity to stir up trouble, suppress Dongxuan City's prestige in Star Fall Continent, and incidentally disturb the minds of the cultivators under Dongxuan City.

"I would like to see what tricks you want to play."

After discerning the current situation, a playful look appeared in Ye Qingxuan's eyes, and he had no intention of taking the initiative to strike.

He wanted to see to what extent these clowns hiding in the shadows could go, and whether they would ultimately have the guts to strike directly at Dongxuan City.

Subsequently, Ye Qingxuan lowered his gaze slightly, scanning the many restless cultivators in Dongxuan City.

After shaking his head slightly, Ye Qingxuan did not step in to intervene.

Once the clowns in the shadows were dealt with by him, or after Xue Yu destroyed the Gui Sect and returned to Dongxuan City, all of this would naturally subside.

Thinking of this, Ye Qingxuan withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention to these trivial matters, waiting quietly on Mount Wanling for the next move from those clowns in the shadows.

These restless cultivators were basically all peripheral members of Dongxuan City.

As for those core members of Dongxuan City, after initially learning about some of Ye Qingxuan's foundations, they were not panicked in the slightest, and did not believe that any force in the Eastern Extreme Domain could threaten their Dongxuan City.

These core members had no heart to empathize with the worries of these peripheral members right now; they were busy preparing their own trump cards, getting ready to teleport to other great domains for training in the near future.

Two days later, the core members of Dongxuan City flew toward Mount Wanling in a grand, unanimous procession.

At the very front of the crowd, Jiang Yinyin excitedly pulled her helpless-looking Master, taking the lead in flying toward Mount Wanling.

"Master, hurry up, we are going to be the first cultivators from Dongxuan City to teleport."

This time, Jiang Yinyin and Liu Feifeng were mainly traveling, so the two of them did not summon the Demon Hunting Army under their command.

Moreover, only core members of Dongxuan City could teleport to other great domains through the 'Qingxuan Cave Heaven', and only about half of the Demon Hunting Army under their command were core members of Dongxuan City.

Jiang Yinyin and Liu Feifeng had already decided to temporarily split their Demon Hunting Army into two parts.

The Demon Hunting Army consisting of Dongxuan City core members would be retained, while the other members would be arranged in a Dongxuan City branch city to develop as a branch.

Soon, the actions of the core members of Dongxuan City attracted the attention of other cultivators in Dongxuan City.

Watching the endless stream of cultivators flying toward Mount Wanling, those peripheral members of Dongxuan City who did not know the inside story could not help but discuss it in confusion.

"What is going on? Why are they all going to Mount Wanling? Isn't that the City Lord's place of cultivation?"

"No, they are all core members of Dongxuan City, and several of them are my former friends."

"There must be a great secret hidden on this Mount Wanling."

"No, I have to go up and see!"

Quite a few cultivators weighed the matter for a moment, then gritted their teeth and attempted to mingle with the core members, wanting to follow them to Mount Wanling to get to the bottom of it.

It was a pity that when these cultivators flew to the waist of Mount Wanling, they were blocked by an invisible barrier.

They could only watch helplessly as the core members beside them continued to fly toward the top of Mount Wanling.

At this time, on Mount Wanling, a massive, open spatial gate was already suspended.

Jiang Yinyin, Liu Feifeng, Jiang Wen, and others who had already entered the 'Qingxuan Cave Heaven' flew directly into the spatial gate.

And the other core members who flew to Mount Wanling, upon seeing this spatial gate, received a detailed introductory message out of thin air.

Guided by the information, they also excitedly and eagerly flew into the spatial gate.

"Wow, is this really the Qingxuan Cave Heaven? The changes are so huge?"

Jiang Yinyin, who entered the Qingxuan Cave Heaven first, was instantly shocked by the environment of the Qingxuan Cave Heaven at this moment, and even Liu Feifeng and Jiang Wen beside her could not help but reveal looks of surprise. "Could it be that this Qingxuan Cave Heaven can continue to grow?"

Thinking of this, Liu Feifeng and Jiang Wen looked at each other, both seeing the look of disbelief in the other's eyes.

Compared to last time, the Qingxuan Cave Heaven, with its soaring spiritual energy density and purity, and its sudden flashes of spiritual inspiration, could be called a holy land for the few of them.

If the Qingxuan Cave Heaven continued to grow, Liu Feifeng and Jiang Wen dared not imagine what the future Qingxuan Cave Heaven would look like.

Just as Liu Feifeng and Jiang Wen were envisioning the future Qingxuan Cave Heaven in their minds, Dongxuan City cultivators had already begun to enter the Qingxuan Cave Heaven one after another in this area.

After entering the Qingxuan Cave Heaven and formally observing its environment.

These Dongxuan City cultivators were instantly stunned on the spot. These Dongxuan City cultivators who were entering the Qingxuan Cave Heaven for the first time looked at this world in disbelief and said in shock:

"Holy crap, is this the Qingxuan Cave Heaven? Am I dreaming?"

"The City Lord is awesome! If it were before, as long as I could cultivate in the Qingxuan Cave Heaven forever, I would be willing even if it meant cutting my lifespan in half."

"No, after Old Man Liu and the others became Blessed Land cultivators, the cultivation environment is actually this good? If I had known, I would have applied to become a Blessed Land cultivator too."

"It's not too late for you to apply to become a Blessed Land cultivator now, is it?"

"Now? Now that the Great Era of the Di Xuan Realm has arrived, how can a mere Blessed Land cultivator satisfy anyone?"

"Let's go, stop talking nonsense. Let's contact Old Man Liu first and go see what this so-called Blessed Land is actually like."

"Master, stop spacing out, let's go quickly!"

Seeing more and more cultivators entering the Qingxuan Cave Heaven, Jiang Yinyin, taking advantage of the fact that others were still in shock at the Qingxuan Cave Heaven, hurriedly pulled Liu Feifeng beside her and flew toward the place where four spatial gates stood in the distance.

She, Jiang Yinyin, was determined to be the first person to teleport.

Even though it had no special significance.

After arriving before the four spatial gates, Jiang Yinyin looked them over, then pulled Liu Feifeng and stepped into the spatial gate inscribed with the three large characters 'Southern Barbarian Domain', disappearing from sight.

Jiang Wen, who followed closely behind, also flew into this spatial gate and left the Qingxuan Cave Heaven.

On the four spatial gates, the characters "Eastern Extreme Domain", "Southern Barbarian Domain", "Western Desolation Domain", and "Northern Departure Domain" were written respectively.

Among them, the spatial gates inscribed with "Southern Barbarian Domain", "Western Desolation Domain", and "Northern Departure Domain" could teleport to the spatial gates already established in these three major domains, and one could travel back and forth to the Qingxuan Cave Heaven through the spatial gates on the other side.

And the spatial gate inscribed with "Eastern Extreme Domain" could return to Mount Wanling in Star Fall Dongxuan City.

Not long after Jiang Yinyin and the others flew into the "Southern Barbarian Domain" spatial gate, other Dongxuan City cultivators also began to choose the corresponding spatial gates to teleport one after another.

At the same time, on the highest mountain peaks in the core areas of the Southern Xuan City established by Ye Qingxuan in the Southern Barbarian Domain, the Western Xuan City in the Western Desolation Domain, and the Northern Xuan City in the Northern Departure Domain.

Figures of Dongxuan City cultivators began to appear one after another from an open spatial gate.

As soon as these Dongxuan City cultivators appeared, they were moved by the teleportation arrays already set up on the mountain peaks of the three major cities to secluded courtyards that had been cleared out in their respective cities, quietly blending into the three major cities.

However, among the three major cities, Southern Xuan City received the most Dongxuan City cultivators.

Because it was the first teleportation, the majority of these Dongxuan City cultivators chose the "Southern Barbarian Domain".

After all, the Southern Barbarian Domain was where the human border was located. As human cultivators, how many people did not want to witness the style of the human border with their own eyes? On Mount Wanling, Ye Qingxuan, who was hiding his figure, watched the core members of Dongxuan City teleporting to the three major domains one after another, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

Opening the Qingxuan Cave Heaven to the outside world this time, although it was only open to the core members of Dongxuan City for the time being, was also a big step in the layout of the forces under his command in the Di Xuan Realm.

Only by breaking free from the shackles of geography could the cultivators under his command have the opportunity to come into contact with more opportunities, and only then could they grow up faster.

Ye Qingxuan did not intend to deliberately conceal the actions of the core members this time.

At his current level, there was no need to act as cautiously as before in this Eastern Extreme Domain.

After today, even if rumors spread in the outside world that a great secret was hidden on his Mount Wanling, what could the cultivators in this Eastern Extreme Domain do to him? Ye Qingxuan actually hoped that some ignorant and fearless powerhouses would come to force their way into his Mount Wanling out of curiosity, adding a little fun to his dull life.

To this end, Ye Qingxuan had set up quite a few arrays and barriers on Mount Wanling during this period.

Ye Qingxuan was very much looking forward to some stubborn cultivators coming to Star Fall Dongxuan City to break into the mountain in the future.

After going through all kinds of hardships, finally reaching the top of Mount Wanling, only to find that there was only a bare mountaintop and a powerhouse they could not match.

I wonder what they would think when that time comes? On the other side, on the way to the Eastern Extreme Province.

On the open-air platform at the top of the flying boat, Xue Yu and Li Dachui stood facing the wind.

Gazing at the scenery ahead, a look of contemplation appeared on Li Dachui's rugged face, his mouth slightly open as if he wanted to speak but hesitated.

Xue Yu, who was on the side, noticed the slight movement on Li Dachui's face and, without turning his head, said indifferently:

"If you want to ask something, just say it!"

Seeing Xue Yu take the initiative to open the topic, Li Dachui pondered for a moment before finally asking the doubt that had been weighing on his heart for some time and which he had been unable to figure out:

"Star Fall Continent no longer has any potential for development. Why do the City Lord and you Dongxuan Envoys still have no intention of leaving Star Fall Continent?"

"Moreover, most of the core members of Dongxuan City are to be left behind in Star Fall Continent. Why do they have no complaints?"

These doubts had been buried in Li Dachui's heart for a long time.

If it were said that Ye Qingxuan and Dongxuan Envoys like Xue Yu stayed behind to guard the foundation of Dongxuan City in Star Fall Continent, he could barely understand it.

But why did those core members of Dongxuan City have no complaints after being left behind, and were even somewhat excited and thrilled instead? This abnormal performance of the core members of Dongxuan City made Li Dachui's confusion grow more intense.

Taking advantage of this mission with Xue Yu, Li Dachui finally could not help but ask the doubt in his heart.

However, after hearing Li Dachui's inquiry, Xue Yu did not answer directly.

Turning his head slightly to meet Li Dachui's burning gaze of inquiry, a rare smile appeared on Xue Yu's face:

"The day you become a core member of Dongxuan City, you will naturally be able to know everything you want to know!"

After speaking, Xue Yu turned and left, walking toward the inside of the flying boat; leaving only a thoughtful Li Dachui, who muttered to himself on the spot:

"Core member? City Lord, what kind of secret are you hiding?"
