Chapter 112: Arriving at the Border, an Acquaintance from the Xiaotian Sect!
"Time to start traveling by train again; once this trip ends, I'm afraid I'll have a few more underlings by my side..."
Jiang Che glanced outside at the rapidly receding scenery and sighed softly.
Since he arrived in this world and met Luo Shuiyan, these journeys had truly been colorful.
Every time, it meant crossing distances of tens of thousands of miles at the drop of a hat.
From Jianghai City to Xi'an Ancient City, and from Xi'an Ancient City to the Imperial Capital.
Now, they were even heading to the border of the Da Jin, the Spirit Beast kingdom of Canglan Mountain.
However, Jiang Che did not dislike this life, not to mention being surrounded by a group of beauties.
Every one of them was a stunning beauty with a very enchanting figure.
In any case, he was not originally from this world, so he did not have a strong sense of belonging to any particular place.
Therefore, there was no such thing as homesickness.
This other world had different customs and cultures; in his past life, Jiang Che was too busy working overtime to have any time for travel.
Now, he could take this opportunity to travel far and wide, experience the scenery of different regions, and relax his mind along the way.
Little Tiger and Cailin felt the same way as Jiang Che.
Both of them were also enjoying the surrounding scenery quite relaxedly, without the slightest bit of tension.
In their view, no matter what, they were absolutely the bosses.
Any Spirit Beast that signed a contract later could only act as an underling and obey their orders.
Only Yindiao felt slightly lacking in confidence; after all, the gap in bloodline made it impossible for her to truly relax...
She only hoped that the Spirit Beast that came later would not bully her...
The quotas for entering the Canglan Mountain Range had been decided many years ago.
As one of the three pillar dynasties of the Human Race, the Da Jin, together with the other two dynasties, occupied ninety quotas.
As for those other small countries, most could only be allocated a few quotas.
And for some super sects, the quotas obtained by just one sect were already comparable to a small country.
Within the Da Jin, most of the quotas were held by the powerful and noble.
The seven quotas released were nominally to give the talents of the world a chance.
In reality, it was just a pretext; after going around in circles, they would still end up in the hands of the powerful and noble.
After all, the cultivation resources of the Da Jin were all in the hands of these aristocratic families.
Ordinary Beast Tamers simply could not get their hands on these.
This time, the fact that Luo Shuiyan and the other three were able to obtain quotas was because of the existence of Jiang Che, who was extremely heaven-defying.
Otherwise, they would have had no chance at all...
"Everyone, you are all the elite of the younger generation of our Great Jin."
"This trip to the Canglan Mountain Range is long, so I, this old man, will escort you all for a leg of the journey."
There was an empty carriage on the train, and at this moment, forty or fifty Beast Tamers were all gathered here.
And Marshal Wei Long, who had been stern and unsmiling on the high platform at the Hundred Schools League, was also in this carriage, speaking to the crowd in a deep voice.
This person was originally stationed at the border and was a powerful expert in the Da Jin with significant military achievements.
Back at the Hundred Schools League, the distance was relatively far, so everyone didn't feel much.
Now, at close range, everyone could feel that obvious sense of oppression.
As well as the fierce killing intent on the other party, characteristic of a border Marshal!
It was as if a ten-thousand-ton mountain was standing in front of them, pressing down so hard that everyone felt breathless for a moment.
Immediately after, under the arrangements of Marshal Wei Long, everyone was assigned their respective sleeper carriages.
This train was traveling from the Imperial Capital to the border.
Along the way, it crossed mountains and ridges, traversing much scenery; Jiang Che would turn his head to look out the window from time to time, admiring the unique views.
This time, under Jiang Che's Holographic Perspective sensing, he did not capture the figure of Elder Guo.
From Luo Shuiyan, Jiang Che learned that Saint-level experts were not allowed to accompany them to Canglan Mountain.
"My current strength allows me to sense the scenery within a three-kilometer radius." "I didn't see Elder Guo accompanying us even at such a distance; it seems he really didn't follow. This time going to Canglan Mountain, only that old man Li Yan will be covering us..."
For some reason, with only Li Yan around, Jiang Che always felt a bit insecure.
During the journey, the little Princess of the royal family also came to the carriage of Luo Shuiyan and her group.
Her interest in Luo Shuiyan and the others was unusually high.
"Big sisters, after we arrive at Canglan Mountain, can I be with you?"
The little Princess asked very politely, her smile very sweet.
She naturally saw the extraordinary potential of the four, especially Luo Shuiyan, who served as the captain.
This time, the Rose Team being able to advance was all thanks to Luo Shuiyan and Jiang Che.
In the eyes of the little Princess Sima Wei, by following Luo Shuiyan and the others, she might even have a big harvest for her own Contracted Spirit Beast.
"Princess, you joke; Canglan Mountain is not our territory, so if you want to follow, then follow."
"However, I hope you remember, Princess, that if we encounter a suitable Spirit Beast, don't blame us for competing for it."
Luo Shuiyan knew what the other party was thinking, and she also knew that this little Princess had no ill intentions.
Plus, with a royal Princess accompanying them on this trip to Canglan Mountain, their safety would also be increased significantly.
So this time, she did not refuse again.
After four days, the Intercity Train finally stopped at a station in a border city.
The group did not have time to rest before they transferred to flying Spirit Beasts to continue their journey.
Their destination was Canglan Mountain, and there was still a distance to go.
Not long after, everyone saw a massive fortress appear on the horizon!
The endless high walls were covered in black-red bloodstains, clearly having experienced many great battles.
The city walls were towering and thick, covered in all sorts of trenches, clearly the marks left behind by countless battles.
Stationed atop the city walls were a large number of soldiers.
They wore stern armor, their blades and spears glinting with cold light, their bodies filled with a murderous aura.
Clearly, these people were all battle-hardened frontier troops with formidable combat power! The Spirit Beasts stopped in mid-air before reaching the fortress.
There was an airspace restriction around this frontier fortress.
Ordinary Spirit Beasts and Beast Tamers were not allowed to intrude into the airspace at will.
If they forced their way in, it would be considered an invasion and they would be attacked directly.
Marshal Wei Long stood at the very front of the formation, and only then were they granted passage by the guards in the fortress, allowing the many flying Spirit Beasts to continue forward.
After flying for another hour.
Everyone arrived at a zone a thousand miles outside the border and stopped at a small town.
This small town was a stronghold of the Da Jin.
For those wanting to head to the Canglan Mountain Range, this small town was an excellent transit station.
Beast Tamers gathering from all directions within the Da Jin would all meet here.
Only then would they set off together to head to the Canglan Mountain Range to obtain Spirit Beasts.
This small town was very close to the Canglan Mountain Range, almost right at the foot of the mountain.
Standing in the small town, one could see the magnificent and vast mountain range in the distance! That was the kingdom of Spirit Beasts, the very famous Canglan Mountain Range.
At this moment in the small town, besides Luo Shuiyan and those who set out from the Imperial Capital.
There were also Beast Tamers from other regions, most of whom came from various major sects.
"Xiaoxiao!"
Just as everyone's flying Spirit Beasts landed, a resonant male voice came from nearby.
One could see the young man speaking was wearing a black martial outfit, his build very burly and robust.
On his chest, a fierce tiger head was embroidered with golden thread, looking extremely imposing!
