Chapter 516: Chapter 221: Qingdan Valley, Yuan Zhao’s Past, Tao Family’s Foundation Establishment !
“Is the Yuanzhao Kingdom up ahead?”
Luo Chen asked in surprise.
Tao Yisheng nodded, “Indeed, this kingdom has been under the jurisdiction of Qingdan Valley for four hundred years. Friend Luo, do you have any doubts?
“Ha-ha!”
Luo Chen laughed heartily, “It’s a coincidence, my hometown is in Yuanzhao
Kingdom.”
“Huh?”
Tao Yisheng looked at him with a mix of belief and doubt.
He came from Yuanzhao Kingdom, but he did not recognize the way home?
Luo Chen waved his hand, “I set foot on the Path of Immortal by chance and went far away to The Great River District. I was young and didn’t remember the way home.”
“Really?”
“No lies, Bai Xiu District of Yuanzhao Kingdom is my hometown.”
There indeed is a place called Bai Xiu District in Yuanzhao Kingdom.
It’s adjacent to Thousand Mountain District, with an extremely remote location, quite literally a wilderness.
“May I request Friend Tao to allow me to return home for a visit?
“This…” Tao Yisheng was somewhat conflicted.
Or rather, not just him.
Li Yixian and Nangong Jin also showed expressions of hesitation.
However, when Luo Chen’s calm gaze swept over them, both of them remained silent.
Perhaps it was the pressure from three Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators, or perhaps Luo Chen had simply been persuasive.
The thin-skinned Tao Yisheng finally agreed to Luo Chen’s request.
However, he asked that their flying boats remain hidden and not disturb the ordinary people.
Luo Chen and the others had no objections.
They used the Cloud Riding Technique to conceal the three flying boats.
And so, they slowly flew into Yuanzhao Kingdom.
On the flying boat.
Nangong Jin looked at Luo Chen in confusion.
“Why not go around Yuanzhao Kingdom and head straight for Tian Lan
Immortal City?”
Li Yixian was also puzzled, “If we delay any longer, Huo Quan might catch up. Friend, do you miss your hometown that urgently?
In response to their doubts,
Luo Chen calmly said: “If Huo Quan wanted to pursue, he could have caught up three to four days ago with his power.”
“Uh…”
Li Yixian wanted to argue that perhaps Huo Quan was still in closed-door
cultivation.
But it felt wrong.
Huo Quan was only breaking through from the sixth to the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, not a breakthrough of a significant realm.
If he wanted to come out, he would have done so long ago.
Despite their non-stop journey day and night and the flying boats speeding at full tilt,
they were still slower than the flight speed of an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator, let alone throwing off a long-established Foundation Establishment practitioner?
Not catching up was odd, but it wasn’t that urgent anymore.
Maybe he was delayed by something!
Luo Chen simply remarked and turned to Nangong Jin.
“Going to Tian Lan Immortal City is a must, but we can’t just rush in blindly!” Nangong Jin hesitated to ask, “What do you mean?
“Tian Lan Immortal City is not far from here, it’s just a day’s journey for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. With the speed of our flying boat, it will only take a few days.”
“There’s no need to rush.”
“Instead, getting a good understanding of the situation there is the most important thing!”
These words resonated with Li Yixian.
Indeed!
Going there blindly could easily lead to trouble.
It’s just like their visit to Taishan District, where they based their expectations on the Kang Family’s impression.
As a result, they encountered the situation of the Huo Family’s rise to power.
Even worse, they attracted the attention of people like Huo Hu.
“Are you asking Tao Yisheng for information?” Li Yixian caught on quickly and figured it out.
Luo Chen nodded, “Indeed!”
“This place is not far from Tian Lan Immortal City, and he should have been dispatched by Qingdan Valley to perform the regular tasks of the Foundation Establishment Stage.”
“Under such circumstances, he must need cultivation resources. The nearest Tian Lan Immortal City would be his frequent destination.”
Nangong Jin frowned, “Would he tell us?”
Luo Chen smiled.
“For someone who can’t even refuse others’ requests, wouldn’t extracting information from him be easy?”
Half a day later, the flying boat landed within the forbidden area of the palace.
ZhaiXing Tower!
“This is the temporary cultivation place for the disciples of Qingdan Valley. Generally, members of the Yuanzhao royal family do not dare to disturb us here.”
When the flying boat landed, it attracted the attention of those in nearby tall buildings.
Most of them were Qi Refinement Cultivators.
Looking at the buildings around them, Luo Chen and the others couldn’t help but sigh at the sight.
They considered themselves to be cultivators of immortality, but they always preferred tranquility and simplicity in their dwellings.
Unlike this worldly palace with its flying eaves and splendid adornments, small bridges over streaming water, and a riot of colorful flowers.
Even though it was just a dwelling place for Qingdan Valley disciples, designed to emphasize the tranquility of the Path of Immortal, it still exuded an aura of wealth and grandeur.
“Yuanzhao Kingdom is the only mortal kingdom under Qingdan Valley, thus Qi Refinement Cultivators are permanently stationed here.”
“Those few at the initial Qi Refinement Stage are promising disciples we recently discovered. We taught them the basic Qi induction technique, with plans to bring them back to Qingdan Valley later.”
“You can stay here for a while…”
Tao Yisheng gave a brief introduction and then planned to leave.
But he was stopped by Luo Chen.
“Friend Tao, you must have established your foundation not long ago, right? Tao Yisheng looked at Luo Chen in astonishment, “You certainly have keen eyes. You’re right, I’ve built my foundation just ten years ago. After stabilizing my realm, I was dispatched here to perform garrison duties.”
Luo Chen smiled brightly.
“In that case, how about the four of us sit down and exchange some cultivation insights?”
“Good, good!”
Tao Yisheng happily agreed.
Although he was a distinguished disciple within his sect, Li Yixian and Nangong Jin were obviously seasoned Foundation Establishment Cultivators with rich experience.
Even Luo Chen had a stern demeanor and exhibited an air of enlightenment.
If he could exchange cultivation insights with them, he would surely gain a lot. Nangong Jin and Li Yixian exchanged glances when they saw this.
