Chapter 409 - 310: Changzhou Southern Wilderness, Former Domain of the Nine Rivers
"Terrifying beyond measure..."
Even Jiang Ming, upon seeing the contents, couldn’t help but gasp.
No wonder Jiang Ming had only seen the Great Wei capable of bearing the title of an Immortal Dynasty since he started simulating.
Especially within this Pocket World, the Imperial Capital of Great Wei was filled with countless strong practitioners.
Although the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance couldn’t interfere here, it didn’t mean Xiang Wuji was entirely safe.
"Since it’s the Great Wei Immortal Dynasty..."
"Then isn’t this place in..."
Jiang Ming’s eyes shone.
Changzhou!
If there was any place in Changzhou that Jiang Ming could truly understand...
Nine River Basin!
"Moreover... I want to know how the simulation times are arranged each time."
[You rely on the connections developed over the years, trying to leave the Imperial Capital.]
[However, Jiang Zhao is unwilling, choosing instead to join the Divine Strategy Mansion, one of the Nine Great Immortal Sects. You have no idea how she hid her identity, nor do you meddle in it.]
[You left the Imperial Capital...]
Divine Strategy Mansion, a branch of Nine Heavens Grotto Heaven within the Great Wei Imperial Capital.
"You are imbued with the power of Purple Dragon Smoke; your physique is very suitable for it. You are a great seedling for our sect."
A white-haired elder said gently.
Standing beside him was Jiang Zhao.
"Since you have joined our Divine Strategy Mansion, the past is wiped away; don’t dwell on it."
The elder seemed to perceive Jiang Zhao’s thoughts and spoke calmly.
"You come from another Great Wei, but the Purple Dragon Smoke there is essentially the same as ours, so you needn’t worry about anyone causing trouble over past matters."
"Since you are my disciple, you shall be a direct disciple of the Divine Strategy Mansion."
Jiang Zhao nodded.
She did not tell Xiang Wuji the specific details.
One day, this elder personally descended to accept her as a disciple, as if he had foreseen her arrival.
Jiang Zhao asked the elder: "Senior... Master, can you read a fortune for my friend..."
Before Jiang Zhao could finish speaking.
The elder shook his head and said: "It’s unclear."
Jiang Zhao was taken aback, "Why not?"
"Once you learn my Celestial Secret Skill, you will understand. It’s a pity; this one too should have been quite suitable for my teachings, but his path is already formed..."
The elder sighed.
His gaze penetrated countless scenes, looking at Xiang Wuji as he was leaving the Nine Heavens Grotto Heaven.
It seemed he could see countless figures emerging from Xiang Wuji.
[In the 11,728th year of the Changtian Calendar, after ten years of cultivation and travel, you finally left the core area of Great Wei.]
[You faintly feel an unknown place attracting you.]
This was Jiang Ming guiding Xiang Wuji.
Heading to the Nine Rivers, though without specific landmarks, Ningzhou was vast, and Jiang Ming only knew a general direction.
After all, Nine Rivers was too remote, nominally under Great Wei’s domain, but largely unmanaged.
In this current system, the Nine River Basin where Ouyang Yun once was could already be considered a large-scale Cultivation Realm. However, the resources were scarce, and stable Nascent Soul production was impossible.
But overall strength far exceeded ordinary medium-sized Cultivation Realms.
[Soon, you arrive at the extreme south of Changzhou, in the Southern Wilderness Realm.]
[This place lacks a true Overlord Sect, merely nominally a part of the Great Wei Immortal Dynasty, yet due to highly uneven distribution of Spiritual Qi, it remains neglected by the dynasty.]
[Throughout the Southern Wilderness Realm, numerous small and medium-sized Cultivation Realms exist, with wide expanses of buffer zones between them.]
[Mortal civilization is relatively advanced, entirely different from the situation in the Jinxia Domain of Ningzhou.]
In Jinxia Domain, large-scale Cultivation Realms were adjacent to each other, and the small and medium-sized ones were born due to special terrains, either reliant on these large-scale Cultivation Realms or existing as buffers.
The unique terrain of the Southern Wilderness Realm led to unusual Spirit Veins.
In Xiang Wuji’s view, Spiritual Qi distribution in this realm was somewhat chaotic.
In some places, the Spiritual Qi was extremely dense, leading to highly developed Cultivation Civilizations.
In others, the Spiritual Qi was so sparse it was almost spiritless, predominantly featuring mortal civilizations, with extensive distances between small Cultivation Realms.
Apart from the Southern Wilderness Domain Mansion set by Great Wei in the extreme north, overseen by the Lord of the Mansion, there was little other administration.
In Xiang Wuji’s perspective, this place was quite suitable.
Suitable for researching the Mortal Transformation Technique.
However, before that, Xiang Wuji needed to accumulate cultivation.
[In the 11,730th year of the Changtian Calendar, you arrive at a barren area within the Southern Wilderness Realm.]
[The Spiritual Qi here is sparse, with only three great rivers flowing tirelessly into the distant inland sea, Zeyun River.]
Jiang Ming’s brow furrowed intensely at this moment.
With a single thought, he had Xiang Wuji explore the surroundings again.
Only then could Jiang Ming be sure.
This place was indeed the Nine River Basin, or in other words...
It was the future Nine River Basin.
Xiang Wuji’s era was far before Li Jin, Zhu Chen, and Ouyang Yun!
As for Pei Min, Sword Spirit Heaven and Jiuzhou were not interconnected; Xiang Wuji only knew that Pei Min’s era was after the God-Demon List shattered.
From which the ’Immortals’ escaped, leading to the void insect disaster in Sword Spirit Heaven.
[You leave this barren land, following the most water-rich of the rivers, heading towards Zeyun River.]
[In the 11,731st year of the Changtian Calendar, you spend nearly a year mostly traveling, given the sparse infrastructure within the Southern Wilderness Realm, using void travel, rarely encountering major sects with Space Transmission Arrays.]
