Not only was the entrance to the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital heavily guarded, even in the sky above the Capital, there were numerous guards lined up in rows that flashed past.
These guards in the sky above the Capital glared fiercely at the horizon, and so long as they noticed something was wrong, they would charge forward.
Since these guards were able to fly, they were undoubtedly existences at the Void Prying Stage or above.
This caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to help but be extremely shocked.
"This is the resources and reserves of a Dynasty … A group of guards patrolling the sky above the Capital are all existences at the Void Prying Stage or above!"
Duan Lingtian sighed in his heart.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of his hometown, the Crimson Sky Kingdom.
In the entire Crimson Sky Kingdom, there were only a few Void Prying Stage martial artists.
Whereas in the Darkhan Dynasty, the guards and patrolling were all Void Prying Stage martial artists.
The difference between the two was like the difference between the heavens and the earth.
"If the Darkhan Dynasty is compared to the most bustling metropolis on Earth in my previous life … Then the Crimson Sky Kingdom is simply a remote village that can't find its way."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but have such a thought in his heart.
Presently, it wasn't only Duan Lingtian who was shocked by the guards in the sky, even the expressions of Mo Xuan and the others couldn't help but go grim.
"So many Void Prying Stage martial artists are actually only patrolling guards of the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital?"
Zhong Nan's pupils constricted, and he was slightly astonished.
"No wonder they say that Void Initiation Stage martial artists are as numerous as dogs in the Darkhan Dynasty, and Void Prying Stage martial artists are everywhere … I thought someone was exaggerating earlier, but now it would seem that these words are truly too apt."
Gao Yuhai put away the fan in his hand and sighed with emotion.
Amongst the people present, only Han Xuenai, King Yong, Su Li, and Long Yun were able to maintain their composure.
The composed expressions of the four of them were clearly noticed by Duan Lingtian.
Han Xuenai was composed, and he wasn't surprised.
After all, she was from the Foreign Lands.
King Yong wasn't surprised as well.
As the number one expert of the Darkstone Empire, King Yong had surely come to the Darkhan Dynasty frequently in the past.
Su Li and Long Yun had instead caused him to be surprised.
"Su Li, could it be that you've come to the Capital of the Darkhan Dynasty?"
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but ask Su Li via voice transmission.
"Yes."
Su Li replied, "I came with Master … According to what I know, Long Yun should have come with my Martial Uncle Dao as well."
Duan Lingtian suddenly understood.
No wonder.
"The Prince of Yong."
Meanwhile, Zhong Nan looked at King Yong and asked curiously. "Up until now, I haven't seen anyone enter or leave from the sky above the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital … Could it be that the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital doesn't allow people to enter or leave from the sky?"
"Sort of."
The Prince of Yong nodded.
"Sort of?"
The Prince of Yong's words left many people, including Duan Lingtian, deeply puzzled.
The King of Yong continued. "The airspace above the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital prohibits the entry and exit of people other than the Imperial Family."
Duan Lingtian and the others suddenly understood.
As the ruling power of the Darkhan Dynasty, the Darkhan Dynasty's Imperial Family undoubtedly promoted hegemony.
Of course, Duan Lingtian believed him.
If it was an expert that possessed the strength to look down upon the Darkhan Dynasty's Imperial Family, then the expert could similarly enter and exit the airspace above the Capital at will.
When facing such an expert, the Darkhan Dynasty's Imperial Family would probably not even dare fart.
In this world where the strong were respected, it was like this.
"Let's go!"
Under the lead of King Yong, Duan Lingtian's group walked towards the entrance of the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
Duan Lingtian's group registered themselves under the lead of King Yong.
"Darkstone Empire, King Yong?"
The guard that was in charge of registering Duan Lingtian and the others glanced at King Yong with slight surprise, and then he passed 14 command tokens to King Yong after they registered themselves.
Everyone had one of these command tokens, and it was used to enter and exit the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
After they registered themselves, they only had to display their command tokens to enter and exit the Capital within the next three years, and they didn't have to continue registering.
Under the lead of King Yong, Duan Lingtian's group walked into the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
Numerous tangled and complicated roads entered their eyes, and it caused Duan Lingtian and the others to be unable to help but be dazzled.
As the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital, it was bustling and flourishing.
On the various roads, horses and carriages moved like dragons, and they flowed endlessly.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, when are we leaving? There's still two and a half months before the agreed date between you and the other possessors of the jade swords. "
Han Xuenai's voice transmission entered into Duan Lingtian's ears in a timely manner.
It caused Duan Lingtian to be unable to refrain from laughing bitterly.
This little girl, Xue Nai, seemed to have an even greater interest towards the Sword Monarch's Treasure than him.
Of course, he was able to discern it.
Xue Nai entirely wanted to join in the fun and felt that it was fun.
"We'll leave after we settle down … Is this alright?"
Duan Lingtian replied with slight helplessness.
Han Xuenai's mischievous eyes flashed when she heard this, and she nodded with satisfaction.
"We'll go have a meal first, and then we'll stay at an estate our Darkstone Empire's Imperial Family bought in the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital."
King Yong spoke to Duan Lingtian's group.
Everyone had no objections.
Duan Lingtian and the others weren't surprised that the Darkstone Empire's Imperial Family had an estate in the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
Under King Yong's lead, they casually found a restaurant and finished their meal.
Duan Lingtian's group followed behind King Yong and arrived at the estate the Darkstone Empire's Imperial Family bought in the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital.
The estate was extremely large, and it was divided into a front courtyard and rear courtyard.
"There are 108 independent courtyards in the rear courtyard … All of you can stay in the east courtyard of the rear courtyard during this period of time. There are 20 independent courtyards in the east courtyard."
After King Yong led Duan Lingtian's group to the rear courtyard, he instructed before leaving with the two old men by his side.
On the other hand, Duan Lingtian's group started to distribute the various courtyards in the east courtyard.
But no one fought to be the first to enter a single courtyard.
Besides Duan Lingtian, the gazes of everyone else were slightly fearful as they looked at the yellow clothed young woman by Duan Lingtian's side.
"Xue Nai, you choose first."
How could Duan Lingtian not know the thoughts of everyone when he saw this scene, and he looked at Han Xuenai as he spoke.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, I'll stay by your side … I think those two courtyards aren't bad, they're right next to each other. How about we stay there?"
Han Xuenai's gaze descended onto the distant small courtyards that were connected together.
These two small courtyards were at the foot of the east courtyard, and both sides were filled with flowers and trees, causing them to look extremely elegant and tranquil.
"I'm fine with it."
Duan Lingtian shrugged.
As far as he was concerned.
At any rate, even if he chose these small courtyards, he would probably only be able to stay for a few days.
He was about to leave with Han Xuenai and head to the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Pheasant Ridge to converge with the other possessors of the jade swords.
At that time, he would enter the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
It would surely be a long period of time before he came out.
"I only hope that I'll be able to rush back before the Dynasty Martial Competition begins."
Actually, Duan Lingtian didn't have the slightest confidence in his ability to return before the Dynasty Martial Competition.
After all, everything within the Sword Monarch's Treasure was unknown to him.
Of course, he could choose not to head to the Sword Monarch's Treasure at this time.
But in this way, he wouldn't have the slightest confidence in being able to become eminent during the Dynasty Martial Competition and obtain the qualifications to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Just as King Yong had said earlier.
In the Darkhan Dynasty, there were many young geniuses with strengths that weren't inferior to Mo Xuan.
If he didn't have any special fortuitous encounters before the Dynasty Martial Competition.
He didn't have the slightest confidence in being eminent and seizing the qualifications to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
Even though his natural talent had arrived at the limit from consuming the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk, his age was far inferior to those young geniuses that were almost 40 years old.
In terms of age, he suffered a great disadvantage.
He could only make up for it with fortuitous encounters.
No matter if it was the Sword Monarch's Treasure or the Rebirth Pill, both of them could be considered to be fortuitous encounters of his.
Presently, he was creating fortuitous encounters for himself!
He didn't know anything about what he could obtain from the Sword Monarch's Treasure, and he could only rely on his luck.
He was able to predict the benefits the Rebirth Pill would bring to him, but he still hadn't found the final type of Ageless Root.
So Duan Lingtian placed his hopes on the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
I only hope that the Sword Monarch's Treasure won't disappoint me.
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Along with Duan Lingtian and Han Xuenai entering their own small courtyards, Su Li and the others started to choose their own small courtyards and stay in them.
Normally, there would be people delivering food to their door, so practically everyone stayed in their rooms within their small courtyards and silently cultivated without leaving their rooms.
On the third day.
Duan Lingtian and Han Xuenai went to look for King Yong, and Duan Lingtian went straight to the point. "King Yong, I intend to leave the Capital for a period of time."
"You must rush back before the Dynasty Martial Competition begins."
When King Yong saw Han Xuenai following by Duan Lingtian's side, he didn't ask any further and directly agreed.
"Okay."
Duan Lingtian replied before leaving the estate with Han Xuenai.
"Hiss hiss ~"
Meanwhile, the two little pythons stuck out their heads from Duan Lingtian's sleeve, and their eyes contained slight excitement mixed within.
They knew the objective of Duan Lingtian's trip this time as well.
They were similarly filled with interest towards the Sword Monarch's Treasure.
The two of them left the Capital of the Darkhan Dynasty.
"Xue Nai, shouldn't we go look for a demon beast as a means of transportation?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Han Xuenai and asked.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, you're so stupid … There's no need to look for another demon beast."
Han Xuenai shook her head, and then she took the lead to head directly towards the continuous mountain range in the west.
On the other hand, Duan Lingtian seemed to have realized something, and his eyes revealed a trace of a strange sheen. "I forgot … Perhaps that Triwood Tiger wouldn't pay any attention to me, but he obeyed Han Xuenai's every command."
Within the gorge of the continuous mountain range, the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger was lying there, and he intended to sleep in.
He'd been exhausted since long ago from flying all along the way.
Especially when he thought of being able to get away from that little she-devil, his mood was extremely good.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, a fierce beast entered the gorge by mistake.
The Three-Eyed Flame Tiger opened his mouth and let out a low roar, and a terrifying suction force swept out to swallow the fierce beast into his stomach.
After he burped, the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger closed his eyes in satisfaction. "I can finally sleep in properly …"
Right at this moment.
"Big guy!"
A voice that was pleasant like an oriole sounded out, and it caused the body of the Three-Eyed Flame Tiger that was like an enormous mountain to tremble.
For a time.
