Chapter 309 Nine Heavens Mountain
Chapter 309 Nine Heavens Mountain
Yun Ci and Gu Yan went to meet up with Immortal Venerable Ji Qing.
Si Qingxuan, Su Mo, Long Li, and Shen Wenchun stood to the side, their backs straight, the hems of their robes embroidered with different patterns fluttering gently in the wind.
Several people, whose presence could dim the very heavens and earth, were watching in the direction of Yun Ci and Gu Yan, as if they were waiting specifically for Yun Ci.
It was Yun Ci's first time riding a flying boat. She ran over, her eyes filled with anticipation, and said impatiently,
"Master, let's go up quickly."
The Immortal Venerable Jiqing looked at his little disciple who was running over with doting eyes and stretched out his hand, "Let's go."
Yun Ci looked at Immortal Venerable Ji Qing's hand, then at Immortal Venerable Ji Qing again, recalling the scene in her memory of being led by her tall master.
He immediately said with a strange expression, "Master, you don't still think of me as a child, do you?"
As she spoke, Yun Ci noticed that everyone else had already boarded the flying boat, so she immediately ran up as well.
As the Immortal Venerable Jiqing watched his little disciple run off with a carefree air, he lowered his eyes, concealing the disappointment within them.
The man in white, his clothes as white as snow, felt a little melancholy. His little disciple had grown up and no longer needed his guidance.
......
Board the flying boat.
As Yun Ci had predicted, the place was indeed very large, and everyone was excitedly talking and searching for their rooms.
This reminded Yun Ci of modern cruise ships.
As direct disciples, they were naturally assigned the best rooms.
"Junior brother, this is your room," Gu Yan said with a smile as he opened the door.
Yun Ci went inside and took a walk around.
The room had a window, so it was very bright and there was no unpleasant odor.
Once you're airborne, you can also enjoy the scenery below.
Yun Ci liked it very much.
Yun Ci also saw a luminous pearl and a kerosene lamp by the bedside.
The room was fully furnished, so there was no need to tidy it up. Yun Ci, unable to stay idle, wandered around the rooms of his senior brothers and a few others.
When Yun Ci went to the Immortal Venerable and Shen Wenchun's room, she first knocked on the door and then skipped in.
When Yun Ci went to Gu Yan and Su Mo's room, she was pulled inside before she could even knock.
Hearing the voices from next door, Si Qingxuan glanced through the crack in the door, his palm swirling with spiritual energy.
The door suddenly swung wide open.
After visiting her fourth senior brother's room, Yun Ci passed by Si Qingxuan's room and found that her eldest senior brother had not closed the door.
Yun Ci walked over and knocked on the door.
Si Qingxuan turned his head to look at Yun Ci, who was clinging to the door frame with half her head sticking out and acting cute, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
Immediately, Si Qingxuan spoke expressionlessly, "What is it?"
Yun Ci blinked and pointed to the door, "Senior Brother, your door isn't closed."
Si Qingxuan glanced at the door and said, "Oh, I forgot. Come in."
Yun Ci walked in somewhat confused and saw Si Qingxuan packing his things, so she obediently found a place to sit down.
Later, Yun Ci got bored and, after a while, went to find Chu Ziming.
......
After everyone was settled, we watched the airship take off and fly into the distance.
After the initial excitement subsided, everyone returned to their rooms to meditate and consolidate the martial arts techniques they had learned over the past few months. Fortunately, they had made a name for themselves at the martial arts tournament.
The airship flew at a high speed, yet it didn't shake at all; it was very stable.
Yun Ci clung to the edge of the flying boat, looking at the distant scenery, and stretched out her hand.
White clouds drifted through my fingertips.
Chu Ziming was just called away by Elder Chengxuan.
Yun Ci wanted to play outside for a while, but Si Qingxuan called her to practice her swordsmanship.
......
"Look quickly, look quickly, where are we?"
"A disciple from the Beast Taming Peak urged."
Yun Ci and the others gathered around.
The disciple from Beast Taming Peak standing nearby held a leather map, frowned, and examined it carefully before saying,
"We just passed Tianyu Lake and are now on our way through Maple Leaf Valley."
As he spoke, his brows relaxed, and a pleasant expression appeared on his face.
"We're almost there! We'll be at our destination, Jiuxiao Mountain, after passing Maple Leaf Valley."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became excited.
"Great! I was about to throw up after flying for so long."
"Yeah, me too. Luckily, I had Yun Ci's lemonade and steamed buns."
Yun Ci blinked, took out several glasses of lemonade and orange juice from her storage ring, her clear eyes filled with 'I'm a money-grubber'.
"Selling lemonade and orange juice, one spirit stone for one bamboo tube, anyone interested?"
Yun Ci held up the juice.
"I want it! I want it!"
"I want some too, I'm dying of thirst."
"Don't move, let me buy first, I'm going to throw up."
"???"
"Yun Ci, are there any more steamed buns?" Ye Qingqing asked.
She was drawing talismans in her room this morning and didn't have time to come out.
Yun Ci nodded, "Yes, there are."
Ye Qingqing immediately beamed with joy.
Everyone drank refreshing juice and sat on the deck, laughing and talking.
He carried the carefree spirit and freedom of youth.
Several very diligent people were meditating and cultivating themselves in a corner.
The airship is still flying.
Two hours later, the flying boat passed through the Maple Leaf Valley area and through layers of clouds.
Clinging to the edge of the flying boat, the group looked down and saw Mount Jiuxiao below the clouds.
But once inside this area, the fog grew even thicker.
It’s hard to see clearly.
Because there is a secret realm here called "Nine Heavens Secret Realm", it is named Jiuxiao Mountain.
The flying boat, controlled by Elder Chengxuan, descended through layers of mist.
Yun Cicai finally saw the full view of Jiuxiao Mountain.
From a high vantage point, countless mountains encircle the open space in concentric circles, as if deliberately arranged by someone.
The airship flew downwards for a considerable distance.
Yun Ci discovered that the open space in the middle had been transformed into a fighting arena and a spectator area.
......
Several disciples dressed in the robes of different sects were flying downwards on their swords.
Some disciples' robes were spotless and clean, without a speck of dust, while others' robes were patched.
Some of them had a large bundle on their backs, and the spirit swords under their feet rose and fell, making them look like they were being weighed down and could hardly fly, yet they were still trying their best to fly.
Some people weren't even wearing disciple robes.
Compared to the people from the Xuanyuan Sect who were traveling in flying boats, they were clearly from a small sect.
When these people saw the flying boat, they couldn't help but widen their eyes.
"What...is that...?"
"My God, what kind of flying artifact is that? They seem to be from the Xuanyuan Sect."
The Xuanyuan Sect disciples noticed the envious looks and voices around them, so they asked a few people whose spiritual energy was almost exhausted to come up and give them a ride.
He didn't show it on his face, but he was incredibly proud inside!
Although it was their first time riding in a flying boat.
Seeing the Xuanyuan Sect members' calm and composed demeanor, the group felt even more admiration for them.
When the airship landed, it was met with gasps of amazement and envious glances.
The disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect still maintained a calm and composed demeanor (which was actually an act).
"Tch, they're quite the actor."
A cold laugh rang out, and the purple-clad youth, arms crossed, withdrew his gaze from the group of people from the Xuanyuan Sect.
"You agree, right, Ah Xiao?"
