Chapter 351 There is a sky outside the sky
Jinsha Island, located in the central and northern waters of Yunmeng Lake, belongs to the Thousand Islands Immortal Sect.

The island is a hundred miles in circumference. There is a town on the east side of the island where many people live all year round.

Several immortal sects chose Jinsha Island as the location for recruiting disciples, which resulted in the number of people coming here increasing several times recently.

The city is bustling with people coming and going.

On top of a pavilion, Bai Lu looked at the crowded town with a wandering gaze.

She arrived at Jinsha Island yesterday, but did not meet the so-called guests that the sect leader mentioned, so she has been waiting here.

Outside the island, several large ships came one after another and docked at the bay pier.

Qing Wan looked at the island right before her eyes and said excitedly, "We're finally there!"

We came here by boat, and after getting out of the fog, we didn't encounter any strong winds or waves, and finally arrived at our destination safely.

When the ship docked, many passengers couldn't wait to get off the ship.

Jing Wei also brought people to the Immortal Gate Assessment Office.

Before leaving, Jing Wei gave a few plaques, hoping that Lu Zheng and others would visit Yingdu in the future.

Qing Wan watched Jing Wei and the others walk away before she whispered, "Which immortal sect can that little girl join?"

Fang Jin, who was standing next to him, heard this and pondered, "I think that kid is okay. He has a good family background, so as long as there aren't many competitors, he shouldn't have any problems."

When a sect recruits disciples, they not only look at their qualifications but also their background.

After all, who wouldn't like a disciple with both family background and qualifications?

After most people on the boat had left, Lu Zheng and his companions slowly got off the boat.

Qingwan jumped and skipped on the soft golden beach. Looking at the fine sand emitting a golden luster, she couldn't help but grab a handful with her little hands and held it in her hands to look at it carefully.

"This sand contains copper, and..."

Qing Wan muttered softly, "This sand can be used to make gold."

She discovered that this gold sand was not ordinary sand, and she didn't know how much gold and silver could be produced by smelting it.

The immortal sect in Yunmengze is indeed a wealthy and powerful one, and they don’t take these gold sands seriously.

Qing Wan's eyes sparkled, and she felt deeply impressed by the rich heritage of the Immortal Sect.

Fang Jin couldn't help but say, "This is Qiandaomen's territory, we can't mess around."

Qing Wan waved her little hand, throwing the fine sand into the air, shaking her head and saying, "I'm just telling you."

This Jinsha Island is indeed a treasure land, but it is ultimately someone else's place.

Fang Jin looked at Lu Zheng and asked, "Are you planning to go and see the immortal sect recruiting disciples, or..."

Lu Zheng said slowly: "Let's ask someone who knows where the Yunmeng Sect is. The seniors from the immortal sects might know."

He came to Jinsha Island just to take a boat ride.

The major sects are recruiting disciples, so there will definitely be some high-level figures coming. If you ask them for directions, you should be able to get some clues.

When Lu Zheng met the great Jade Mirage Demon before, he did not ask about this matter because he was worried that the other party would find out that he didn't even know where the Yunmeng Sect was and might find various reasons to force him to stay.

Fang Jin touched his chin and said, "Well... the elders in our sect never told me about these things. You should ask the people in the immortal sect..."

Fang Jin paused, thinking that Lu Zheng's abilities were almost the same as those of the sect's elders.

He couldn't help but change the topic and said, "I'm quite familiar with these immortal sects and can introduce them to you. If they don't know, why don't you go visit the Xuanyang Sect? Our Sect Master might know... Since you're already here, it's actually not far from our Xuanyang Sect."

"Then I'll trouble you, Brother Fang." Lu Zheng said.

"No, no." Fang Jin said with a smile, "Thanks to your guidance along the way, I have gained new insights into the way of talismans."

The three of them walked slowly towards the town.

Suddenly, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.

The woman was wearing a blue-white robe, with delicate features and cold eyes, and she exuded an extraordinary temperament.

"Ok?"

When Fang Jin saw the woman suddenly appear, he was stunned for a moment, then his face changed slightly and he whispered, "Miss Bai?"

Bai Lu was originally sizing up Lu Zheng and Qing Wan. When she heard Fang Jin's words, she couldn't help but glance sideways, exhaling sweetly, "Who are you?"

Fang Jin's eyes lit up, and he said happily, "It's me, Fang Jin! The disciple of Elder Yang Hui of Xuanyang Sect. We've met before."

Fang Jin turned to look at Lu Zheng beside him and explained, "She is the one I told you about, Bai Lu who joined the Yunmeng Sect...Fellow Daoist."

Qing Wan, who was standing next to him, looked up at Bai Lu curiously and said in sudden realization, "Is this the one you were talking about, your uncle's nephew's cousin?"

After hearing what he said, Bai Lu thought about it and had some impression of the other party, but not much.

Originally, she and Fang Jin had no connection, and after joining the Yunmeng Sect, she became indifferent to the social etiquette she had previously known.

Bai Lu didn't react. She looked at Lu Zheng again and asked, "Do you two have any history with the Yunmeng Sect?"

When observing these new arrivals just now, Bai Lu immediately noticed that Lu Zheng and Qing Wan were a little different, but she couldn't tell the specific reason.

Hearing this, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "I once met Daoist Fellow Fuyao from your sect."

Fuyao... A strange light flashed in Bailu's eyes. In Yunmeng Sect, only the Sect Master was called by this title.

As he spoke, Lu Zheng took out the jade talisman of martial arts that Yun Fuyao had given him before as proof.

Seeing what Lu Zheng took out, Bai Lu confirmed that the two people in front of her were the guests the sect leader had mentioned.

She couldn't help but become more polite and asked, "Are you two free to visit Yunmeng Sect?"

"That's what I wish for." Lu Zheng said with a smile on his face.

Unexpectedly, the journey to Yunmeng Sect went much more smoothly than he had imagined. It was just that upon arriving, someone from Yunmeng Sect came looking for him. This was definitely not a coincidence.

Bai Lu nodded slightly and made some hand gestures.

Above the sky, a loud crane cry was heard.

But a streak of white light fell from the sky. In just a few blinks of an eye, the light hit the ground and a powerful momentum emerged.

It was a huge white crane with a wingspan of ten feet. It stood upright and its eyes were quite spiritual and proud.

The people nearby all heard the noise and saw the white crane. Their expressions changed, thinking that some master had arrived.

Bai Lu politely raised her hand and said, "Please come in, both of you."

Lu Zheng looked at Fang Jin, who was still in a daze, and said with a bow, "Brother Fang, goodbye."

"Goodbye." Qing Wan also bowed with her hands clasped in farewell.

Afterwards, the two of them boarded the white crane, and Bai Lu also boarded the white crane.

Immediately afterwards, the white crane soared into the sky and disappeared from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry.

"Hey, hey?"

Fang Jin still looked a little dazed. He just left like that?
There was a light breeze blowing on his face, making Fang Jin feel a little bit cool.

Fang Jin said with a gloomy look, "It's winter now..."

He was somewhat envious of Lu Zheng and the others for being able to go to Yunmeng Sect, but that was all he could do. With his status and abilities, he was not qualified to be invited to Yunmeng Sect.

In the town, several deep gazes were looking in the direction where the white crane was flying away.

"It's the Yunmeng Sect..."

"Could they have found some good immortal seedlings and taken the people away?"

"We can't keep the people that Yunmeng Sect has taken a fancy to, so let's just focus on our own business."

"Right……"

……

Qing Wan stood on the white crane's back and whispered, "It's true."

The white crane under their feet was real, and it was a spiritual crane from the fourth realm. Its flying speed was much faster than the painted objects they had ridden before.

Qingwan only saw Jinsha Island disappear in an instant.

Now flying above the clouds, the sky around me has become a blurry shadow, and I don’t know where I’m flying to.

Lu Zheng looked at Bai Lu and asked, "Miss Bai Lu, did you know we were coming?"

Bai Lu said softly, "Sect Master Feng is waiting for you two on Jinsha Island."

"Sect Master?" Lu Zheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Bai Lu explained: "It's the one you just mentioned."

Lu Zheng suddenly understood and was a little surprised when he heard this. Yun Fuyao was actually the leader of Yunmeng Sect?
Considering that the other party is the leader of the Yunmeng Sect, it is quite reasonable that he would send people to find their whereabouts.

Qing Wan also recalled it and asked curiously, "She is the sect leader! Is your sect leader a true immortal? I heard that your Yunmeng Sect has immortals."

Bai Lu couldn't help but say, "I'm just an ordinary disciple of the Yunmeng Sect. I don't know the sect's secrets."

Lu Zheng nodded slightly but didn't ask any more questions.

But a Qi Refiner who can enter the fourth realm in his early twenties is just an ordinary disciple of the Yunmeng Sect?
Even though it was just a humble statement, it also showed that the Yunmeng Sect had considerable background, and it was unknown how many masters there were.

After all, a Qi Refiner at the fourth level, if placed in other immortal sects, would either be considered an elder or a middle-level manager, not a disciple.

The white crane flew quickly all the way, crossing an unknown distance of water, and suddenly slowed down and hovered in the sky.

Seeing this, Bai Lu waved her jade hand and a palm-sized jade token flew out.

The jade token shone brightly and emitted a strange power.

A colorful gate formed by spiritual energy appeared in front.

The white crane gently spread its wings and disappeared into the gate in an instant.

The next moment, the portal in the sky disappeared.

In just a blink of an eye, Lu Zheng felt a new place.

The surroundings were filled with rich spiritual energy. The sky was still the same sky, but a vast land had appeared below, no longer an endless body of water.

Towering peaks rise into the clouds, with pavilions and towers vaguely visible among them.

Lu Zheng felt the specialness of this place. It was clearly another world, a small world.

The sky above is just a shadow projected by the outside world, not the real sky.

No wonder so many people can’t find the Yunmeng Sect, because the Yunmeng Sect is not located anywhere in the Yunmeng Lake, but in another world... Lu Zheng’s mind turned, and he sighed.

Qing Wan's eyes flickered as she looked at the endless Yunmeng Sect and exclaimed in surprise, "What a huge little world!"

Qing Wan has lived in Lu Zheng's little world for a long time and has discovered some abnormalities here.

When Bai Lu heard Qing Wan's exclamation, her expression couldn't help but change slightly.

When she came here, she thought that Yunmeng Sect was hidden in a large formation, but later she found out that it was not the case.

Unexpectedly, the little girl next to me saw it at a glance.
