Chapter 1378 - 252: Dragon City

Chapter 1378: Chapter 252: Dragon City

"Is this Dragon City?"

Shen Changqing looked at the scene before him, his face involuntarily revealing shock.

Ten-thousand-foot-high walls, towering into the clouds.

An ancient, austere aura that strikes one’s heart.

Before entering Dragon City, he thought that the so-called Dragon City was just a city existing on the continent.

But upon truly seeing Dragon City, Shen Changqing suddenly realized he was too naive.

The entire continent.

Exists as the foundation of the city.

Simply put.

The continent is Dragon City, and Dragon City is the continent.

And in the middle of Dragon City, there is a nine-foot platform built up, the platform alone is as big as the entire Heavenly Dao City.

"Building a city on the remnants of a Twelfth Grade Dao Weapon, what a grand masterpiece!"

Shen Changqing stepped onto Dragon City’s ground, deeply feeling the heaviness of the earth below.

In the view of the Heavens.

Being able to build a city with the remnants of a Twelfth Grade Dao Weapon, probably no other race can achieve.

After all, using such Dao Weapons for city building is complete waste; if nurtured with full effort, it might even be repaired.

However.

The approach of the Five Sects was something his heart understood.

The remnants of the Twelfth Grade Dao Weapon are not private property of any sect, but jointly controlled by the Five Sects.

Someday.

Even if the Dao Weapon is fully repaired, to whom will it belong?

Additionally.

To repair a Twelfth Grade Dao Weapon, the resources consumed must be astronomical, even the foundation of the Five Sects might struggle to bear it.

Qingyi’s face lacked an expression of shock, yet his eyes showed his heart was not calm.

As for Ji Ying.

His heart is now completely occupied by shock.

It’s his first time in Dragon City, the first time seeing such a vast, boundless city.

In front of Dragon City, the main city of Heavenly Dao Sect is akin to a child’s toy, utterly insignificant.

It’s hard to imagine.

How much resources the Five Sects had spent to create such a magnificent Dragon City.

"That must be the place for the Proud Heaven competition!"

Ji Ying’s final gaze landed on the platform.

He understands.

That should be the place for the Proud Heaven competition.

If he truly becomes the Holy Son of Heavenly Dao Sect, then he will have the chance to stand there and gain worldwide fame.

However—

Thinking of this matter, Ji Ying’s mood became somewhat gloomy.

At this moment.

Cultivators broke through Dragon City’s pressure blockade and entered inside.

Ten-thousand-foot-high walls!

An endless city that can’t be seen at a glance.

The impact of the ancient, austere aura, the shock it gives is imaginable.

"Is this the legendary Dragon City?"

The young man looked at the majestic city before him, the shock in his heart was indescribable.

Beside him.

The elder from Transference Divine Palace appeared calm, his originally dim eyes turning bright: "Indeed, this is Dragon City, the place where all the Proud Heaven compete. If you can stand out in the Qianlong Conference, you can achieve fame across the world."

Fame across the world!

These four words made the young man’s eyes gleam sharply.

What is the purpose of painstaking cultivation?

Isn’t it for restoring Transference Divine Palace, isn’t it for achieving fame across the world?

As long as one shines brightly in the Qianlong Conference now, whether the former can be achieved is uncertain, but the latter certainly won’t be an issue.

Just then.

Suddenly, a void explosion occurred, causing the massive Dragon City to tremble violently, as if it was the Earth Dragon’s Turnover.

Amidst everyone’s shock, something like a canvas began to unfold in the void.

The canvas is blank.

No writing of any kind.

Suddenly.

Countless golden lights emerged from the canvas, shooting towards everyone inside Dragon City.

"What is this?"

Shen Changqing reached out and grabbed the golden light that shot in front of him; the golden light dissipated, transforming into a golden token.

The front of the token was engraved with the words Dragon City, the back depicting a vividly lifelike Golden Dragon.

Not only he obtained it.

Beside him, Ji Ying also got a token.

Only Qingyi stood there without any harvest, as if the canvas could sense that Qingyi was different from ordinary people.

While everyone was puzzled.

The void shook.

An imposing figure stepped through the air, emanating an unparalleled aura that made hearts race.

"Divine King!"

"That’s the Heavenly Dao Sect Master!"

"Ah!"

Seeing the imposing figure, most people’s faces changed, showing expressions of awe and respect.

Heavenly Dao Sect Master!

That is a formidable figure who shakes the world, though not of the Fourth Realm of God King, his strength is unquestionable.

Not to mention, behind him stands the great Heavenly Dao Sect.

This identity alone is enough to make everyone fear and revere.

"This Qianlong Conference is initiated by my Heavenly Dao Sect, your presence is deeply appreciated. Anyone who enters Dragon City, if not a Divine King Realm, will receive a Dragon City Order to participate in the Qianlong Conference."

Shenxu’s voice was loud, echoing in everyone’s ears.

After speaking.

He waved his hand, and countless divine lights rose from all around Dragon City.

The divine lights formed, turning into seats that stood in the void, surrounding a central high platform.

In front of these seats, seventeen golden thrones were set up additionally, as if suppressing everything.

"Everyone, please be seated!"

After Shenxu finished speaking, he was the first to sit on one of the seventeen golden thrones.

Upon hearing.

The people below hesitated slightly, then rushed towards the void seats.

Soon.

The void seats were mostly occupied.

But no matter what, no one dared to take those seventeen golden thrones.

Everyone understood.

The seventeen golden thrones represented the Five Sects and Twelve Palaces.

If anyone who was not a representative of the Five Sects and Twelve Palaces dared to sit there, it was courting death.

While everyone was seated in the void seats, Shen Changqing absorbed Qingyi into his body, then found a seat casually with Ji Ying.

Boom——

With a vast and imposing presence, one after another figure emitting a formidable aura tore through the void, landing directly on the golden thrones.

"That one is the Palace Master of Biyun Palace!"

"That one, if I’m not mistaken, should be the Palace Master of Zihong Palace."

"That one..."

Whenever a Divine King descended, Ji Ying would softly introduce the identity of the newcomer to Shen Changqing.

He was quite knowledgeable about the leaders of the Five Sects and Twelve Palaces.

Even if not familiar, recognizing their identity was not a difficult task.

Listening to Ji Ying’s words, Shen Changqing silently remembered the identities of these people.

"Huh?"

Shen Changqing let out a soft sound.

In his sight, an old man in a worn-out Daoist robe was leisurely walking through the void, casually sitting on a golden throne.

Shen Changqing hadn’t sensed the old man’s appearance at all; it was only when he appeared within sight that he noticed him.

This situation made Shen Changqing think of a phrase.

Unity of Heaven and Human (Heaven Being Oneness)!

The old man’s Qi Mechanism was in complete harmony with the Heaven and Earth, indistinguishable, and thus able to evade his senses.

"Who is that Daoist?"

Shen Changqing became interested.

Despite not having faced him, he could tell the old Daoist was undoubtedly stronger than Gong Xuantian.

"Daoist?"

Ji Ying followed Shen Changqing’s gaze, only then noticing the additional old Daoist on the golden throne.

"That one, if I’m not mistaken, should be Taoist Qing Wei, Sect Master of Kunlun Sect!"

"Kunlun Sect Master!"

Shen Changqing’s eyes flickered.

One of the Five Sect Masters, Kunlun Sect.

For Shenxu, whom he deemed weaker in comparison, the feeling was much diminished.

"How does this Kunlun Sect Master’s strength compare to Gong Xuantian?"

"Taoist Qing Wei is always low-key; there aren’t many rumors outside. But according to current information, he should not be superior to the Supreme Elder."

Ji Ying provided a not entirely certain answer.

Not as strong as Gong Xuantian?

Shen Changqing shook his head slightly, smiling: "In my view, this person’s strength is far superior to Gong Xuantian, and if they were to clash, Gong Xuantian would surely lose."

"Impossible!"

Ji Ying was shocked.

He couldn’t believe a low-key Kunlun Sect Master could match the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dao Sect.

If anyone else had spoken these words, he would have scoffed.

But when coming from Shen Changqing, Ji Ying had to believe it.

After all.

This person may be stronger than Slaughter Immortal God; his words wouldn’t be incorrect.

While the two were conversing, the rest of the Five Sects and Twelve Palaces dominators arrived sequentially.

When the last one appeared, Shen Changqing’s eyes flickered again.

He didn’t ask Ji Ying about the person’s identity.

But just from the terrifying aura emanating from the person, combined with the sharpness that made his heart tremble.

Undoubtedly.

Only the Immortal Ascension Sect Master could possess such majesty.

If someone with such aura wasn’t the world’s number one Slaughter Immortal God, then what kind of strength would the true Slaughter Immortal God possess?

If that were true.

Shen Changqing would need to seriously consider how to seek a path of retreat for the Imperial Court.

Indeed.

As he silently contemplated matters, Ji Ying’s voice came from the side.

"The last one to arrive is the Immortal Ascension Sect Master, Slaughter Immortal God, acclaimed as the strongest in the world!"

"He truly deserves to be called the strongest in the world!"

Shen Changqing nodded, but silently added the three words Central Profound Realm in his mind.

Based on his senses, Slaughter Immortal God’s strength was indeed powerful, not at all weaker than his own Four-Zhang Cave Heaven, even slightly surpassing it.

Even the feeling he got from the Kunlun Sect Master wasn’t as intense as that from the Immortal Ascension Sect Master.

When he was at the Four-Zhang Cave Heaven, Shen Changqing would turn away without a word.

But now, having expanded to the Five-Zhang Cave Heaven, a Slaughter Immortal God posed little threat.

At this moment

With all the dominators from the Five Sects and Twelve Palaces present, and the pressure from top Divine Kings filling Dragon City, everyone seated in the void seats instinctively shut their mouths, not daring to speak.

For a moment.

The scene became completely silent, not a sound to be heard.
