"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!!"

The sounds of water splashing and flesh exploding rose and fell, from near to far.

Xun Huai had a far-sighted vision.

"Over the past fifty years, in battles large and small, you've won eight out of ten. But the moments of exhilaration have become increasingly rare, Wei boy. Never forget why Shen Tu chose you. Sometimes you can compromise, sometimes you can even run away. But never let go of this pride in your heart."

Wei Tu, sitting on a piece of paper aboard a turbulent ship, smiled as he looked at Xun Huai.

"Senior, Wei Tu will remember this."

Xun Huai suddenly looked back, but the water dragon had already rushed off into the distance.

He looked at the boy's handsome face and suddenly asked in a loud voice.

"Wei Tu! Tell me, what is this anger in your chest?"

It's as if I have a feeling.

Wei Tu felt the Shen Tu in his hand buzzing, as if it were merging with Xun Huai's voice, resonating and vibrating.

A powerful surge of energy welled up in his chest.

He began to speak.

"I do not believe in fate, nor do I fear ghosts and gods. As long as I have a breath left, I will never put down my sword."

Xun Huai, however, frowned deeply.

"Not enough, think of something else."

Wei Tu took a deep breath and then closed his eyes.

Images flashed through my mind in an instant.

He heard the sound of rushing water.

He opened his eyes and smiled.

"Breaking through the heavens, opening the gates of Fengdu. Slaying immortals with my sword, drinking the blood of demons with my thirst, there is no one in the sky, only living beings beneath my feet!"

"enough."

Xun Huai said this.

Then, watching the young man beside him transform into a rainbow with a single sword strike, he sped away.

Blood shot into the sky in streams, as if red fountains had appeared on the surface of the river.

And one by one, heads drifted eastward with the surging river.

The sword's aura surged like a raging torrent, sweeping across a thousand miles, while the light boat glided leisurely past countless mountain mists. PS: I wanted to write this chapter a bit more traditional martial arts, it should be alright~~ Hope you enjoy reading it~

74 First Arrival in China - Light of China

The light boat drifted away with the waves.

Wei Tu is not on this ship for the time being.

He and Xun Huai were both on the riverbank, watching the once again calm and flowing Lijiang River.

The power of nature is indeed remarkable. The scene of bloodshed disappeared without a trace in such a short time, leaving only some small pieces of wood on the river surface, which were the remains of the boats.

Xun Huai had one hand behind his back.

"You have four more than me, so you should have lost, right?"

Wei Tu was stunned for a moment, "You said you'd give me five, are you going to renege on your promise?"

Xun Huai's eyes widened. "When did I say that? This is slander! I don't admit it."

"At your age, don't you have any shame? All you ever think about is how to cheat the younger generation out of their drinks?"

Xun Huai winked and said, "Where is there a rule that says you can't cheat your juniors out of their wine? There's only one rule in this world: the strong have the final say. I'm in the Divine Realm, so I'm in charge."

Wei Tu glanced at Xun Huai, "You don't actually think I can't reach the Divine Realm, do you?"

Xun Huai laughed loudly, "Why should I care if you suppress your cultivation level to participate in this stupid thing? It's settled then. At worst, I'll send you wine when you advance to the God-Gazing Realm."

Wei Tu sighed and shook his head. "It's because there are always unreliable seniors like you in the Immortal Continent, who are always thinking about suppressing the younger generation, that the atmosphere is getting worse and worse."

"Hahahaha... I do what I want, what's it to you?"

Wei Tu fell silent, and Xun Huai continued, "Alright, that's enough. You should catch up with them, or they'll think I've eaten you. Your harem is really something else."

"What harem? Senior Xun should be responsible for his words. They are my senior sister, two senior uncles, and a junior sister. The relationship is completely innocent."

"Ate!"

Xun Huai spat a mouthful of thick phlegm onto the ground.

"You bastard, you're getting a good deal and you're still acting innocent. You have so many good girls, you should keep them company and not let them down. This world seems vast, but once you lose someone, you'll find that you can't find a place to belong."

"Those words sound... Senior Xun, you have quite a story to tell."

"Heh, go to hell, get lost."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Wei Tu cupped his hands in greeting, and seeing the young man walk towards the shore, Xun Huai said in a deep voice.

"There are many divergent roads ahead, and one's life will be spent on the same journey."

Watching the young man nod and then disappear into the distance on the river in his white robes, Xun Huai stood on the bank, gazing at the rolling river, and lingered there for a long time.

The boat traveled up the Lijiang River for almost a day and a night without any other accidents.

Even the river water seemed to soften until the group finally reached the shore.

On this summer day, the willows along the riverbank swayed, creating a lively scene.

The coming and going of pedestrians, the drifting willow catkins, and the colorful and vibrant skirts create a bustling and prosperous scene.

"This is the most prosperous land of Guang Shenzhou..."

Qiao Zhiheng said this with great interest, appearing somewhat unsteady.

Wei Tu was used to it, because in his previous life, besides Nan Jianzhou, the place he came from the most was Guang Shenzhou.

As for why... the reason is quite simple.

"Don't miss out! Sword immortals and blade warriors, stop and take a look! Dragon-slaying swords and peerless blades are up for sale, I'll sell them for my entire fortune!!"

"A miraculous elixir comparable to a celestial treasure! It will make you an Immortal Emperor tomorrow! Take a look!"

"The wine gourd used by the Drunken Sword Immortal a hundred years ago!! A fire sale price! Selling at a huge loss!!"

"Please, everyone, have pity on me! I can't even afford a flying sword anymore. Here are a few Xuan-level cultivation manuals, the price is very reasonable, we can negotiate!"

Besides the towering buildings, there were also countless vendors.

However, unlike the human world, this place doesn't sell any human goods, nor does it offer firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, or tea. All the items here are necessities for cultivators.

Of course, some cultivators were already struggling to survive and were unwilling to resort to burning, killing, and looting, but they didn't know how to gather materials and craft their own items, so they resorted to bartering.

They're dumping some of their assets.

In Nan Jianzhou, they only exist in certain specific places, and most of the time they are used by sects for self-sufficiency or to meet their needs through trade between sects.

Several people were moving through the streets and alleys.

Lin Ruoyin walked ahead and slowly said, "This is Jiu'an City in Guang Shenzhou. The Dragon Slaying Tournament starts at the Cangqing Sect outside the city, so we'll rest inside the city."

The little fox lifted its head from Mu Xitong's ample bosom and asked like a curious child, "You're going outside the city... why are you staying inside? Isn't it troublesome to go back and forth?"

Wei Tu tugged at the little fox's ear and laughed, "It's probably because there are so many people participating in this Dragon Slaying Tournament, from all sorts of sects. It's obviously difficult for the Azure Sect to accommodate so many people on its own. Each Immortal Continent has at least one sect, while the Northern Profound Continent and the Light Divine Continent each have three slots. The Silver Bottle Continent has two, and although the Lion Camel Continent and we only have one sect each, we still have three participants. Add to that the accompanying personnel, and the number becomes quite large."

Lin Ruoyin glanced at Wei Tu and continued, "Furthermore, we need to guard against people with ill intentions who want to cause trouble entering the venue at will, so we simply arranged for everyone to enter the Cangqing Sect within Jiu'an City. They can then enter the Cangqing Sect with their participation qualification certificates, which will make it easier to manage."

Oh~~~

The little fox nodded as if it understood, looking utterly astonished.

Wei Tu chuckled and patted her head.

Did you understand?

The little fox blinked at Wei Tu, "We don't know, when are we going to eat? We're so hungry."

It's obviously impossible to expect this little fox to come in handy at any crucial moment, but thankfully, no one has any expectations of her anyway.

If you were to ask why she came here... it's probably to act as a mascot.

Wandering through the streets and alleys of Jiu'an City, the towering buildings here are different from those in the human world. In the human world, most houses are single-story buildings, and luxurious courtyards are clearly separated. It is clear where the rich area is and where the common people area is.

In Jiu'an City, things seemed to lack any order, much like the atmosphere of the Immortal Continent—chaotic and unpredictable.

Of course, one piece of basic information is quite certain: the more luxurious the building, the less you should touch it.

Soon the group passed through the streets and alleys and arrived at a secluded area. The entrance was filled with carriages, and people were coming and going.

Groups of three or five people dressed in the same clothes seemed to be having a lively conversation at the entrance, creating quite a scene.

The spacious courtyard seemed to be divided into different areas by the walls, and standing at the entrance was a middle-aged man wearing a turban, with a refined and scholarly air.

A few people approached and overheard their conversation.

"Your sect is so large and renowned throughout the Immortal Continent, is this how you arrange things? You insist that the two of us live in the same courtyard as others? What kind of logic is this!"

"Yes, what if we get ambushed or drugged? You'll have to take responsibility for that!"

The refined middle-aged man replied calmly and gently, “When we sent out the invitations, we already stated that the number of people should be limited to eight or less. Your Xuanling Sect has sent a total of ten people. You will either have to squeeze in, or you can only share a courtyard with fewer people, and that will require their consent. We cannot arrange a separate courtyard for you. You can either go and find one outside yourselves.”

The man's words clearly angered the proud and arrogant Xuanling Sect.

"The Xuanling Sect... is it in Beixuan Prefecture?"

Yuan Wei turned around and looked at Lin Ruoyin, asking softly.

Lin Ruoyin nodded.
