Chapter 331: First Arrival in Great Jin
After a dizzying, earth-shattering daze.
Qin Ming's eyes brightened, and when he opened them again, he was already in an Array Formation within a Cave Grotto.
He had used the Intermediate Teleportation Array for Long-Distance Teleportation, and with his Mid-True Core Stage body refinement Cultivation Level, his body felt no discomfort.
Looking back at the others, they were all swaying unsteadily as if drunk, even Han Yuan and the other two were the same.
It was half a cup of tea later before they returned to normal.
This kind of Long-Distance Teleportation, for those below the Golden Core Stage in Cultivation Level, would more or less cause some adverse reactions.
"Fellow Daoists, welcome to the Great Jin Cultivation World!"
Following this, a middle-aged Cultivator wearing red and purple robes, leading a team of Li Fire Palace disciples, appeared before everyone.
He wore a smiling expression on his face, welcoming these Cultivators who had come from afar.
"Virtuous Steward Liang, long time no see!"
Han Yuan and the others were clearly quite familiar with the Cultivators stationed here, and they exchanged greetings with each other.
Afterwards, under the lead of Virtuous Steward Liang, they walked out of the Cave Grotto.
It was not until they reached the outside that Qin Ming realized that the Li Fire Palace's Teleportation Array was hidden within the mountain body of a canyon, and it was heavily guarded, very secretive.
"Finally arrived? Great Jin Cultivation World."
Qin Ming took a deep breath, his heart and mind swaying, and a smile rose to the corner of his mouth.
He could clearly feel that the Rich Spiritual Qi here was indeed better than the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World.
"Hehe! Fellow Daoist Lu, speaking of which, the Mirror Snow Pavilion branch you are going to is in 'Spirit Ruins Market City' not far from here, which is quite close."
Han Yuan said with a smile.
"Oh? Is that so? Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist Han." Qin Ming thanked him.
"Here is a simplified Map of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, I will give it to Fellow Daoist Lu as a gift."
Gao Feng, who was beside him, took out a light yellow Jade Scroll and handed it to Qin Ming.
Qin Ming took the Jade Scroll and thanked him again. This complete Map of Great Jin, although a simplified version, was still a rare item.
It was generally only held by Great Powers, because it was quite difficult to draw.
After Qin Ming put away the Map, he took the opportunity to inquire with the others, "I heard that Li Fire Palace was previously at War with another Great Enemy, although the War has ended, I do not know what the final result was?"
"Hehehe! I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Lu to be so well-informed even in the Southern Wilderness." Gao Feng said with some Unexpected Event, and then explained to Qin Ming, "Fellow Daoist Lu, the other side that Li Fire Palace fought against was the newly promoted Nascent Soul Level Faction 'Divine Path Mountain'."
"The Great War between the two superpowers ended two years ago, and both sides reached an agreement to cease fighting with the Five Elements Mountain area as the boundary, and not interfere with each other."
Qin Ming couldn't help but ask in confusion when he heard this, "This Divine Path Mountain... is actually a newly promoted Nascent Soul Level Faction in Great Jin?"
"Exactly, Divine Path Mountain is located in the Southern Region of Great Jin, occupying a vast territory. Decades ago, the Grand Elder of Divine Path Mountain secretly succeeded in Nascent Soul Formation, and then the Great War began..."
"In the War that lasted for decades, even Golden Core Cultivators suffered countless casualties, and in the end, the situation... even developed to the point of being irreconcilable."
"Fortunately, two years ago, the high-level Cultivators of both sides started several rounds of negotiations at Five Elements Mountain, and finally reached a ceasefire agreement." Gao Feng said patiently.
Qin Ming's eyes lit up, "Oh? Then I wonder what the war losses were for both sides?"
"In this War, the number of low-level Cultivators killed and injured is naturally countless, and even the Golden Core True Persons who were famous in the Great Jin Cultivation World have fallen in large numbers, it was truly tragic."
"It is said that even the Nascent Soul True Lord of Li Fire Palace and the Nascent Soul Ancestor of Divine Path Mountain had a Great War, and neither side gained any Benefits."
"On the contrary, they both suffered serious internal injuries, and now they are all in Secluded Cultivation to heal their injuries. The injuries suffered by such Great Power Cultivators, I am afraid it will take decades to recover."
"Therefore, as soon as the agreement was signed, the War ended."
Qin Ming was secretly delighted when he heard this, which was exactly what he wanted. Now, apart from Nascent Soul Great Power Cultivators, basically no one could pose a Threat to him.
However, he still had many questions at the moment.
For example, why was the Grand Elder of Divine Path Mountain able to suddenly succeed in Nascent Soul Formation?
And Divine Path Mountain, after all, is only a newly promoted Nascent Soul Sect, so why was it able to confront Li Fire Palace, an old Nascent Soul Sect that had been entrenched in Great Jin for thousands of years, and not be at a disadvantage in the War?
Their Foundations were vastly different, there must be other hidden Information in this.
In addition, why did the two Sects suddenly start War without a word, what was the cause?
However, this Information belonged to high-level intelligence of the Cultivation World, and Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators like Han Yuan probably could not access it.
Qin Ming planned to find an opportunity to properly collect this Information, after all, it was related to his Safety in Great Jin in the future.
At any Time, being able to grasp Information that others do not know in advance is extremely helpful for assessing the situation.
After all, Qin Ming was cautious and prudent, if he saw that the situation was not right, he would prepare to run away at any Time. 'Fortunately, I have come to Great Jin, I am a peace envoy of the Cultivation World.'
'The peace and stability of the two factions should be maintained for a long Time.'
Qin Ming thought to himself, and followed the three of them flying out of the Mountain Valley.
However, halfway there.
When he opened the Map Jade Scroll, he was stunned.
The location where Qin Ming and the others were now was in the Southern Region of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, not particularly far from Five Elements Mountain.
It was only half a month's journey.
In addition, the Identity of Shopkeeper Lu that Gu Qingzhao had arranged for Qin Ming, his destination for this trip was 'Spirit Ruins Market City', which was not far from here.
In order not to attract the attention of others, Qin Ming planned to use this Identity to inquire about Information for a while, to do as the Romans do, familiarize himself with this Cultivation World, and then make specific plans.
Otherwise, if Shopkeeper Lu disappeared inexplicably as soon as he arrived in Great Jin, the move would be too abnormal, and it would inevitably attract the attention of those who were interested.
'Since even a Sect like Divine Path Mountain has the opportunity to secretly achieve Nascent Soul Formation, it shows that there are still many Fortuitous Encounters for Nascent Soul Formation in the Great Jin Cultivation World.'
…
Two days later.
Spirit Ruins Market City, Wind Riding Pavilion.
In the restaurant on the first floor, Qin Ming and Han Yuan and the other two raised their cups and drank heartily. The few of them ordered a large table of fine wine and delicious dishes, and held a banquet to entertain Qin Ming.
"I, Lu, am new here, and I am grateful for the care of the three of you, I toast the three of you." After saying this, Qin Ming raised his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Han Yuan and the other two smiled in unison, "Fellow Daoist Lu is straightforward, and his temperament is compatible with ours, we hit it off at first sight, and regret not meeting sooner."
"This meal will be considered our welcome feast for you, welcoming you to Great Jin, hahaha!"
Han Yuan, Gao Feng, and Liu Ye also raised their cups one after another and drank the Spirit Wine in their hands.
Between the clinking of cups, the distance between the few of them was drawn closer.
Even though he was well-informed.
When Qin Ming first arrived at Spirit Ruins Market City, he was also shocked by this place.
Spirit Ruins Market City was jointly established by nearby Cultivation Sects and several Factions of various sizes. It was located on the edge of the Southern Region, bordering the territory controlled by Divine Path Mountain in the Southern Borderlands.
Further south, was the boundless Beast Roar Mountain Range.
Geographically, it was located on a transportation route, and Cultivators passing through were in an endless stream.
Spirit Ruins Market City was located on a High-Grade Third-Order Spirit Vein, and had been established for thousands of years, with a high reputation among Rogue Cultivators.
Qin Ming couldn't help but sigh secretly: 'Great Jin's Strength is indeed far superior to the Four Nations of the Southern Wilderness, and the abundance of Resources is truly extraordinary. Even a small Market City on the frontier here is enough to rival Vast Sea Immortal City.'
