Lin Yuan City, the Envy Fish Court is filled with unparalleled beauty!
After the battle at the Blood River Spirit Mine, more than twenty Nascent Soul Cultivators emerged, creating a monstrous wave in the Eastern Region that swept across all directions.
At the Misty Immortal Sect, the light barrier of the Sect-protecting Formation was pushed to its limit. From the Elders down to the handymen, everyone looked terrified. The Sect, which usually exuded Immortal Qi, now had an atmosphere so oppressive it was suffocating. Yue Qingyao, who was in secluded Cultivation healing her injuries, heard news of Lin Yuan again. The hatred in her eyes had vanished, replaced by a deep sense of powerlessness: "The Sect is about to be destroyed. I must find a way... to preserve the Sect. I cannot let the foundation of my Sect be ruined in my hands..."
The situation at Hundred Beasts Mountain was the same. The Grand Elder Xiong Haishan's Dharma Body had been destroyed, and the Late Nascent Soul Stage Senior Ice Phoenix had gone to assist but also met with disaster. The Sect was in a state of panic, and many low-level Disciples had already begun secretly packing their belongings, preparing to run away.
It was not just the four major Sects; the several major powers adjacent to the Eastern Region were the same. For instance, the Vast Cold Domain adjacent to Hundred Beasts Mountain and the Azure Wolf Grassland to the west had both sent envoys, traveling through the night to the Eastern Region to gather intelligence. After all, once the six Sects of the Eastern Region were unified, it was self-evident who the next target would be.
Unlike the panic in the outside world, the Blood River Spirit Mine was currently a scene of bustling activity.
More than twenty Nascent Soul Old Ancestors were personally acting as "foremen." What kind of terrifying efficiency was that?
One Elder waved his large sleeve, and the thousand-foot-high mountain blocking the view crumbled, turning into dust that filled the sky. Another Old Ancestor pointed his finger, and the earth cracked open, revealing a bottomless ravine, drawing water from a distant river; a brand-new moat was formed in an instant. Moving mountains and filling seas, opening river channels—in the hands of this group of top combat forces of the Eastern Region, it was nothing more than a game played by turning their palms.
A magnificent and grand giant city rose from the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Lin Yuan stood with his hands behind his back in the Void Realm, overlooking his masterpiece, and nodded with satisfaction.
He acted personally, using the underground Spiritual Vein and the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array as a foundation to set up a super Formation that gathered Spiritual Qi from thousands of miles around. The moment the Formation was activated, the entire new city was shrouded in Spiritual mist so dense it turned into substance. The concentration of Spiritual Qi in the city was several times higher than that of the core Immortal Caves of the four major Sects.
Lin Yuan gave this new city a resounding name—Linyuan City.
In the very center of Linyuan City was a huge residence covering nearly a thousand acres, named "Xianyuting." This was where the Formation Eye was located; the Spiritual Qi had almost condensed into liquid. An ordinary Cultivator breathing here for one breath was worth several days of hard Cultivation.
Inside Xianyuting, there were pavilions and towers, winding streams, and flowing wine cups. According to Lin Yuan's tastes, it was divided into multiple independent courtyards with different styles, each with its own hot spring and herbal garden. Gu Zheng, Ye Youmeng, Su Meiniang, Lan Caier, Xue Linglong... every woman who had an intimate relationship with him had one reserved for her. He even reserved spots for Han Shuang, Su Qingyan, and Mu Wanrou, who were far away in their Sects.
"Alliance Leader! Divine Might! Divine Might indeed!" Old Monster Xuanyin rubbed his hands, approached with a flattering face, his old eyes staring intently at Xianyuting, drool almost flowing out. "Alliance Leader, look... I have worked hard for the Alliance, running around for you. Even if there is no credit, there is hard work. The Spiritual Qi inside this Xianyuting is abundant, which is of great benefit to my old bones. I wonder if... if you could leave a small corner for me too?"
Lin Yuan glanced at him sideways, a playful smile curling at the corner of his mouth: "You don't even look at who lives in this Xianyuting; they are all peerless beauties. If an old geezer like you moves in, wouldn't it spoil the scenery? We are all our own people, so don't cause trouble..."
"Uh..." Old Monster Xuanyin was speechless, his old face flushed red. After holding back for a long time, he muttered unconvinced: "Fellow Daoist Ye can stay, why can't I? Aren't we all our own people?"
Lin Yuan couldn't be bothered to explain the difference between this "own people" and that "own people." He waved his hand speechlessly and changed the subject: "Is there any news from the people sent out?"
Mentioning serious business, Old Monster Xuanyin immediately put away his embarrassment, his expression turning solemn: "Eighteen Nascent Soul Fellow Daoists have divided into four groups and headed to the four major Sects. Calculating the time, news should be sent back very soon."
Lin Yuan nodded and was about to speak when he saw Lan Caier flying over with light steps, followed by a woman with disheveled clothes but who could not hide her heroic spirit. Although the woman was disheveled, her eyes were still as sharp as an eagle's. It was the Thirteenth Princess of the Yan Yang Kingdom, Ji Hanyou.
"Brother Yuan, look who's here?" Lan Caier said with a smile.
When Ji Hanyou saw Lin Yuan, her delicate body trembled violently, and her eyes instantly became incomparably complex. There was terror, humiliation, and a trace of irresistible awe originating from the depths of her Soul. Her legs went soft, and she uncontrollably wanted to kneel down: "Mas... ter..."
Initially, Lin Yuan had planted a Soul Slave Seal on this woman in the Demon Falling Valley. Once this mark was planted, it would produce absolute servility, and as time went on, the servility would only grow heavier. After such a long time, the effect of this slave seal had long since penetrated into her bone marrow.
Seeing this, Old Monster Xuanyin's eyelids twitched, and he left very tactfully.
"Why are you here?" Lin Yuan lifted his hand, a gentle force supporting her, not letting her actually kneel down.
"I... I followed my big sister to the Blood River Spirit Mine. I had long heard of Master's mighty name and wanted to find you, but I was afraid of being discovered by my big sister..." Ji Hanyou's voice was filled with grievance and lingering fear. "Two days ago, when we were retreating, I got separated from the main force. On the way, I was besieged by Disciples of the Yin Corpse Sect, and then I was captured here... If Sister Caier hadn't recognized me, I'm afraid..."
Lin Yuan nodded and said to Lan Caier: "Caier, arrange a courtyard for her and let her wash up first. I have some things to ask her alone."
"Okay, leave it to me. Little Sister Hanyou, come with me." Lan Caier affectionately took Ji Hanyou's hand and took her to choose an elegant place to stay within Xianyuting.
Once inside the small courtyard, feeling the rich Spiritual Qi that was almost dripping with water, Ji Hanyou was completely stunned.
"You... you came too late. Look at me." Lan Caier proudly puffed out her chest, and the aura of the Foundation Establishment Mid Stage was revealed without reservation. "Back in the Demon Falling Valley, we were on par. But now, I am about to charge into the Late Foundation Establishment Stage Perfection! This is all thanks to Brother Yuan!"
Ji Hanyou was full of disbelief: "How can... your Cultivation progress so fast! Since I left the Demon Falling Valley last time, although I have improved, but..."
"Improved my foot!" Lan Caier curled her lips, pulled her to sit on a stone stool, lowered her voice, and her eyes flashed with fanaticism and worship. "Little sister, you still don't know what you missed! What does my little bit of Cultivation count for? Two major Sects, twenty more Nascent Soul Old Ancestors appeared out of thin air! My Master Ye Youmeng, and Senior Martial Uncle Xuan Yin, all successfully advanced to the Late Nascent Soul Stage with his help! Do you understand what this concept is?"
"And your sister is Ji Wushuang, right?" Lan Caier said.
