Outside Of Time Chapter 1146 Journey, the Path Is as Enduring as the Sun and the Moon

Chapter 1146 Journey, the Path Is as Enduring as the Sun and the Moon

?Xu Qing had finished meeting his old acquaintances of the Nanhuang Continent.

As he returned to Fenghai County, a month pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye.

In this month, under the strategic planning of Marquis Yao and Old Master Seventh, the handover of half of the Black Spirit Region to the Holy Wave Large Region was completed, essentially becoming a unified ent.i.ty.

Under the governance of Fenghai County, seventeen magnificent bridges were built on the Sacrificial Yin River that bordered the Moon Offering Region.

These bridges spanned the long river, closely connecting the Holy Wave and the Moon Offering.

From then on, trade caravans from both regions had land transportation as well as the existing river transport.

This would be more convenient for some low-level cultivators.

Teleportation arrays were also built, connecting the two regions.

Hence, to a certain extent, in the south of the w.a.n.ggu Continent, the territories Xu Qing directly and indirectly controlled were already two and a half large regions.

Such a force was rare among the myriad races in the w.a.n.ggu Continent.

To the current human race, it had already surpa.s.sed the scope of the va.s.sals and caused many commotions among the nonhuman races.

At the same time, the expansion of territories led to new divisions of rights in various provinces, with most of the major personnel changes originating from the original personnel of Fenghai County.

Grand Duke Holy Wave cooperated fully, so the unification went smoothly.

In the end, a regional residence was established.

Xu Qing's election as the Region Lord didn't have much to do with his cultivation. It was because only he could connect to the Moon Offering, suppress Grand Duke Holy Wave, and simultaneously gain the fervent support of the Black Heaven priests.

If it was anyone else, it would be very difficult for the Moon Offering, Holy Wave, and Black Spirit to become one.

The governance of a large region wasn't a single person's affair, and many times it couldn't be dominated by individual will. Therefore, a council was established in the regional residence for decision-making.

Marquis Yao, Holy Wave's three dynasty's monarchs, the pontiff Yousang, the representative of the Moon Offering, and some powerful races in the region were the members of the council.

They formulated resolutions concerning all matters related to these two and a half large regions and then sent them for review to the higher-level council of elders.

There weren't many members in the council of elders. There were Grand Duke Holy Wave, Old Ninth, and a high priest of Black Heaven whose entire body was wrapped in cloth. In addition, Old Master Seventh was also chosen to become a member.

After the four of them was the heir and Xu Qing.

Under this structure, the Holy Wave Large Region, the Moon Offering Region, and half of the Black Spirit Region began to truly rest and recuperate. The strength they possessed when they joined forces was enough to protect themselves.

Now, a long journey was about to begin.

Xu Qing and Ning Yan would head to the human race's Grand Imperial Capital Region where they would be received by the Human Emperor.

This trip was different from before when Xu Qing and the captain secretly ran to the Moon Offering. At that time, they needed to hide and their statuses were far inferior to now.

However, now, Xu Qing's ident.i.ty and the forces he represented made it impossible for him to head there secretly and alone.

Hence, his journey required escorts.

30,000 Sword Holders from Fenghai County who had experienced many battles would follow him to the Grand Imperial Capital Region. The leader of the troops was the Sword Holding Palace's Palace Master, Li Yunshan.

Kong Xianglong was among them.

Zi Xuan was also accompanying him, and Wu Jianwu originally didn't want to go, but he couldn't withstand Ning Yan's enthusiasm, so he reluctantly agreed to follow.

Of course, there was one person who couldn't be missing.

That was the captain.

Just like that, as everything in the Holy Wave Large Region proceeded in an orderly manner, the group embarked on their journey to the Grand Imperial Capital Region.

The Grand Imperial Capital Region was extremely far from the Holy Wave Large Region. Its location was located in the center of the w.a.n.ggu Continent because the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether had unified w.a.n.ggu Continent.

In the past, that place was wors.h.i.+ped by all races. It was the peak of the w.a.n.ggu Continent and also a holy land.

Not only did its territory have a special meaning, but its terrain was also different.

If one wanted to head there normally, they would need a long time and would have to pa.s.s through the sphere of influence of countless races.

Hence, if one wanted to reach the Grand Imperial Capital Region, not only did they need to use many super-long-distance teleportations, but they also needed a fixed route.

This path had existed during the ancient sovereign's era. It was the ancient path.

The seven enclaves of the human race were built on this ancient path. This was also the reason why the Seventh Prince and King Tian Lan's army could arrive at Holy Wave from the Imperial City in a short period of time.

However, the super teleportation arrays in the seven enclaves required mutual agreement from both ends to activate.

Unilateral operation was not possible.

Hence, the usage of teleportation arrays was different when coming from the Imperial Capital and when heading towards it.

For the former, it was powerful and could facilitate the teleportation of all territories along the way, allowing for rapid preparation and activation. Moreover, it had the authority to ignore the two-way control.

However, the latter didn't have the right.

Such a super teleportation that crossed regions required a long time of preparation to be activated, and the consumption was also terrifying. Xu Qing and the others had to bear the full expenses.

Fortunately, they had the imperial edict and the status of the Holy Wave Large Region was extraordinary now, so it could be much more convenient for communication.

There was naturally such a teleportation array in the Holy Wave Large Region. It was originally built in the Anping province of Fenghai County and occupied almost half of the province's territory.

In all these years, it had only been activated once.

That was when the Seventh Prince arrived back then. Only he had the authority at that time.

After that, this super teleportation array was abandoned. The Seventh Prince wasn't willing to go either, so he built a second one.

King Tian Lan had used the teleportation array built by the Seventh Prince.

At that moment, Xu Qing and the others were standing on the vast teleportation array built by the Seventh Prince.

This array formation covered about half of the province and the boundary couldn't be seen at a glance. The ground was completely paved with green jade and there were countless runes engraved on it.

As the green jade shone and the runes shone, rumbling sounds shook the world and echoed in all directions like thunder. This vast array formation was enveloped by a piercing light.

Its light was as strong as the sun. As the formation shone, it operated at an accelerated speed.

When the array formation was about to be activated, the captain's face was filled with antic.i.p.ation. He had his own plan and arrangements for this trip to the Grand Imperial Capital Region.

"The Grand Imperial Capital Region. I haven't been there in this life. Although I went there a few times in my previous lives, I failed to rob the tombs."

"Let's see if I can succeed this time."

The captain licked his lips and a hint of madness appeared in his eyes.

Wu Jianwu stood beside the captain. When he saw the glint in the captain's eyes, he let out a cold snort and lifted his head proudly.

"In the boiling sea of fire, the heroic spirit surges in my heart. I'm heading to the Imperial Capital to pay homage to the ancient heroes!"

The main reason why he agreed to go with Ning Yan this time was because he wanted to take a look at the palace of the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether and see if there were any poems of the ancient sovereign there.

He felt that his creativity regarding poems had reached a bottleneck. He needed to pursue more traces of the ancient sovereign so that he could truly walk the path of the ancient sovereign.

At the thought of this, Wu Jianwu's eyes lit up.

Ning Yan noticed the glint in the captain's and Wu Jianwu's eyes but didn't mind. At that moment, his emotions were in turmoil and he sighed with emotion.

He thought of the reason why he had secretly escaped back then and the cold Imperial City. Actually, he didn't really want to return, but it was clearly unrealistic.

"With Boss around, I should be fine."

Ning Yan drew in a deep breath and instinctively looked at Xu Qing, who was standing in the distance.

Beside Xu Qing, other than Zi Xuan and Kong Xianglong, the Sword Holding Palace Master, Li Yunshan, was also there. He was speaking to Xu Qing.

"Region Lord, to head to the Grand Imperial Capital Region, you have to undergo seven super teleportations and pa.s.s by the other six human counties until you finally teleport into the Grand Imperial Capital Region."

"This kind of super teleportation will cause a lot of discomfort. Hence, after every teleportation, we will have to rest a little."

"The end point of our first teleportation is Tai'an County. It's located in the Ordon Region. There's a lot of conflict between this region and our human race, so in reality, this Tai'an County hasn't ever truly been peaceful for many years."

After Li Yunshan found out that he was in charge of the security along the way, he had researched the route for a long time. At this moment, his words and expressions were calm.

"However, Tai'an County and Fenghai County have occasional dealings, so the communication has been smooth. They have already activated their authority, allowing us to teleport over."

"The teleportation array will be activated now."

"To be safe, we will teleport in three batches this time. The first group will be led by this old man and the Sword Holders. The second group will be the people around the Region Lord, and lastly, the Region Lord."

Xu Qing nodded politely. He had no objections to Li Yunshan's arrangements. At that moment, he looked at this familiar world from afar and antic.i.p.ation rose for his trip to the Imperial Capital.

Zi Xuan, who was beside him, smiled and grabbed Xu Qing's hand.

Xu Qing retracted his gaze. When he looked at Zi Xuan, green light erupted into the sky from the array formation. The rumbling sounds were even more intense than before. The first batch of teleportation had been activated.

The wind from the teleportation stirred up Zi Xuan's hair, causing her peerlessly beautiful face to be reflected clearly in Xu Qing's eyes.

After a long time, the storm weakened and Zi Xuan's voice rang out softly.

"Xu Qing, I have a feeling that this trip to the Imperial Capital will be of extraordinary significance to you."

Zi Xuan looked into Xu Qing's eyes and smiled gently. The figures of the captain, Ning Yan, and the others disappeared from the array formation under the second flicker of the green light.

In the end, only Xu Qing stood there.

He took a deep breath and looked at the sky.

In this sky, Old Ninth walked out and stared at Xu Qing.

He didn't follow Xu Qing to the imperial capital. If the baby eagle wanted to grow, it couldn't follow its elder forever. Sometimes, only by letting go would there be another level of sublimation.

He had told Xu Qing this before.

Xu Qing understood. He cupped his fists and bowed toward the sky before bowing in the direction of Fenghai County.

Green light flickered and transformed into a sea of light that drowned everything.

After a long time, as this sea of light dissipated and the array formation calmed down, Xu Qing's figure had already disappeared from the array formation.

Old Ninth turned and walked toward Moon Offering.

At the same time, in the pavilion of the capital city of Fenghai County, Old Master Seventh stood there and looked in the direction of the teleportation array. The feeling of watching his children travel far led to him to have a melancholic expression.

"Eldest courted death in his previous lives and should know this depths of the Imperial Capital, so there's no need to bother with him. If he continues to court death, it's fine if he dies."

"Fourtha?| should indeed make a trip to this Imperial Capital."

"There is some history about this w.a.n.ggu Continent that I should inform him about. It will be more profound than what he sees in the Imperial Capital."

"Especially about this Summer Immortal."

Old Master Seventh mumbled and closed his eyes.
