Heaven and Earth Restriction.
Four majestic cities tightly surrounded this place.
Compared to a few months ago, each city now had over a million soldiers.
The soldiers here.
They were not ordinary soldiers, but the true elites of the Great Zhao.
Apart from that.
The experts of the Imperial Court also continuously came and were stationed in the city.
In a short period of time.
The city was built like an iron bucket.
The teleportation gates in the city flashed one after another.
One after another, cultivators walked out from the inside.
"Is this the gate to the Eastern Continent? It is indeed extremely majestic! "Someone looked at the surrounding scene and the aura of iron and blood in shock.
Hearing that.
A cultivator beside him smiled and said, "You must know that this city was built by Sect Master Qin of the Sky Origin Sect. The title of the number one blacksmith in the world is not just for show. It is rumored that although this city is a spirit artifact, even a Dao artifact cannot break it.
With the existence of these four cities and the Diviner experts of the Imperial Court, this place is already impregnable. "
The four cities were opened to the outside world for the first time.
However, the news of Qin Shujian's construction had already spread.
After all, the construction caused such a huge commotion, and the Endless Mountain Range was not completely airtight. It was not difficult to obtain some information.
More importantly.
The Imperial Court was deliberately spreading the news.
The title of the number one blacksmith in the world played a big role.
At this moment.
The blood of the four cities rushed to the sky.
Experts of various sects and factions, as well as rogue cultivators from all over, came to support.
This time, the Imperial Court only gave a strong order to the sects, but did not have many requirements for the rogue cultivators.
After all, they were rogue cultivators.
Without a sect as a foundation, it was useless even if the Imperial Court wanted to enforce the order.
However, after knowing that the Imperial Court was about to start a war with the three continents, some rogue cultivators still came of their own accord.
For them.
This was both a danger and an opportunity.
"Is this the Heaven and Earth Restriction?"
A great cultivator of the Divine Martial Realm looked at the turbulence in the void in front of him and was naturally shocked.
A middle-aged cultivator said in a deep voice, "This is the turbulence in the void. Even a Diviner might face danger if they enter."
He had obtained this information from the ancient records of his sect.
However, this cultivator's sect had not produced a Diviner for many years, so this information was rather old.
There were still three days left before the one-year deadline.
However, more than eighty percent of the powerhouses in the Eastern Continent were gathered here.
These experts referred to cultivators above the True Martial Realm.
As for Basic Realm cultivators, the Imperial Court had no indication.
Even if a Rudimentary Realm cultivator came and was discovered by the imperial court, they would immediately be persuaded to return.
There was no other way.
If he were to participate in such a battle, he would be courting death.
Although Basic Realm cultivators were of no use to humans, they were the foundation of the human race.
If all the low-level cultivators died, it would be a huge blow to the human race.
The teleportation gate flashed.
Yin Bancheng walked out, followed by many experts of the Traceless Sect.
When the official guarding the portal saw Yin Bancheng appear, he immediately asked in a deep voice, "May I ask which sect you are from?"
"Traceless Sect!"
Yin Bancheng replied faintly, then looked at the surrounding environment.
Even with his Celestial perception, he was actually restricted here, only able to spread it out to a range of three zhang.
Regarding this.
Yin Bancheng was also taken aback.
This was no longer just the suppression of the city itself, it also meant that there was an extremely powerful formation here.
The strength of the formation.
It had reached the point where it could even suppress Celestial Beings.
When he saw the blood Qi surging above the city.
That was the symbol of a large number of troops gathered.
The elite army of the imperial court could form a powerful military formation. If they charged, even Celestial Beings would have to temporarily avoid them.
All these factors combined.
Yin Bancheng realized that if he was an enemy, he would not even have a chance to escape after entering the city.
The suppression of the city itself, the suppression of the formation, and the encirclement of the army.
In the face of such an attack, Celestial Beings were just a little brother.
Of course.
This was referring to ordinary Celestial Beings like Yin Bancheng. If it was a powerful Celestial Being, it would be a different story.
When the official heard this, his face turned serious. "The Traceless Sect, a top sect, needs to bring one Celestial Being, ten Divine Martial Artists, a hundred Spiritual Martial Artists, and a thousand True Martial Artists."
After that.
He looked behind Yin Bancheng and said in a deep voice, "May I know your name?"
"Yin Bancheng!"
"Elder Yin, according to the requirements, the Traceless Sect needs to bring ten Divine Martial Artists to assist in the battle. Now, there don't seem to be ten Divine Martial Artists present!"
The official's words were more polite, but when he looked at the people behind Yin Bancheng, he frowned.
How could an official who could guard here to count the number of people be a simple cultivator?
Although the other party looked ordinary, he was actually an expert at the peak of the Divine Martial Arts Realm.
Yin Bancheng said calmly, "The Traceless Sect has just been promoted. Now there are six Divine Martial Artists in the sect. I brought five Divine Martial Artists with me. The remaining one will ensure the inheritance of the sect. He has already done his best."
Hearing this.
The official did not say much on this issue. He said solemnly, "Okay!"
He had heard about the Traceless Sect. It was indeed a newly promoted top sect.
Whether there were really only six Divine Martial Artists in the sect was not mentioned for the time being.
But this time, there was a Celestial Being and five Divine Martial Artists. It was indeed a great contribution.
For such a force.
The imperial court could understand.
Subsequently.
The official did some registration and then let Yin Bancheng and the others leave.
Soon, other sects arrived.
In the Eastern Continent, all sects above the True Dominion level had to produce a certain number of cultivators.
This was not only to consolidate the strength of the Eastern Continent, but also to express their attitude.
If some sects took action and some sects did not, it would inevitably cause some sects to feel indignant. They would wonder why they were killing enemies on the front line while others were hiding behind and living peacefully.
Therefore.
All sects had to produce cultivators.
If they did not, the imperial court would take action first and exterminate these sects before the three major continents arrived.
At this moment.
The Human Race was not allowed to have a second voice, nor was it allowed to have any possibility of dividing the Human Race.
As long as there was a sign of this.
The imperial court would exterminate it immediately.
"Come, report your name and origin!"
"Nine Palace Sect, Qin Yuanbai!"
"So it's Sect Master Qin!" The official was shocked. He looked at Qin Yuanbai, who was standing in front of him, and then at the Nine Palace Sect experts behind him. Then, he completed the registration.
After doing all these things.
Qin Yuanbai led his people to find a place to rest in the city.
"What a big deal!"
Walking in the city, Qin Yuanbai could feel the invisible pressure and saw the blood Qi that had already manifested. He could not help but exclaim.
In order to hide from Qin Shujian.
He had been in seclusion for a few months before he could barely suppress this inner demon.
At this moment, he came out of seclusion and led the Nine Palace Sect people to fight.
Qin Yuanbai originally thought that he had brought enough experts with him this time, but when he really arrived here, he realized that the experts in the city could already be said to be as numerous as the clouds.
"Sect Master Qin!" A hearty voice sounded.
Qin Yuanbai turned his head and smiled. He cupped his hands and said, "Elder Yin!"
"I didn't expect to meet Sect Master Qin as soon as I arrived here. It's fate."
Yin Bancheng smiled and seemed to be in a good mood.
He was very familiar with Qin Yuanbai. After all, they were almost the same generation of cultivators.
However, Qin Yuanbai was more talented than him and broke through to the Diviner realm first.
On the contrary, Yin Bancheng waited until his lifespan was almost exhausted before he succeeded.
If it was in the past.
Yin Bancheng would not take the initiative to greet him.
Because when he saw a Diviner of the same generation, he would only feel depressed.
But now, it was different.
Everyone was a Diviner, so there was not so much pressure when they met.
Qin Yuanbai smiled and said, "Brother Yin has broken through to the Diviner realm, but I haven't had the chance to congratulate him. I hope Brother Yin doesn't blame me."
"Sect Master Qin, what are you talking about?"
Yin Bancheng said with a faint smile.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the two of them temporarily gathered together.
Originally, Yin Bancheng planned to meet up with Qin Shujian.
However, until now, he had not found where Yuan Sect's people were.
According to Yin Bancheng's estimation.
Yuan Zong should be in another city.
Therefore, he had to team up with the Nine Palace Sect so that when the war started, there would be no one to take care of him.
In the city.
A group of people came through the teleportation gate.
The official guarding there immediately recognized the identity of the person who came and greeted him warmly, "May I ask if you are Sect Master Qin of Yuan Sect?"
"Qin Shujian greets Sir!"
Qin Shujian also cupped his hands politely.
The two words "Sir" were just to give the other party face.
The official smiled and said, "Sect Master Qin, you are too kind. My name is Feng Qing. I have long heard of Sect Master Qin's great name!"
"So it's Lord Feng."
"You're too polite." Feng Qing was very happy. Then, he looked at the people behind Qin Shujian and his expression changed slightly.
"Sect Master Qin, your sect is a top sect. According to the requirements, you need ten God Martial Arts Realm cultivators to participate in the war. You don't seem to have enough!"
It was more than not enough.
It was more than half of the difference.
In Feng Qing's eyes, Yuan Sect only had three God Martial Arts Realm cultivators.
One had to know that the Sky Origin Sect had recruited quite a few guests. Even if they couldn't gather ten God Martial Realm experts, they definitely wouldn't only have three.
This order was personally given by the Human Emperor.
Therefore.
Feng Qing also felt embarrassed for a moment.
Qin Shujian said, "Lord Feng, you don't misunderstand. Our sect has not been established for long, so we really don't have many God Martial Arts Realm cultivators. However, this time, in order to express our sincerity, our sect has already sent out two Diviner cultivators.
In addition to me, this is Jiang Feng. Lord Feng, you should have heard of his name. "
Jiang Feng!
Heavenly Zombie Jiang Feng!
Feng Qing was shocked. Looking at the black-robed man behind Qin Shujian, his expression became serious.
How could he not have heard of Jiang Feng's name?
Feng Qing also knew that the Sky Origin Sect had a Heavenly Being level zombie overseeing it, but he did not expect that Qin Shujian would also bring this one over.
Qin Shujian said, "In ancient times, zombies were also creatures of all races. Now that our sect has one more Diviner, can it match ten God Martial Arts Realm cultivators?"
"Of course it can."
Feng Qing's expression relaxed, then he smiled.
It was more than just a match.
Seriously speaking, dozens of God Martial Arts Realm cultivators could not compare to a Diviner.
Unless those God Martial Arts Realm cultivators were all at the peak of their realm.
Otherwise, they were not qualified to be compared to a Diviner.
In order to accommodate the cultivators of the various sects, the city was also divided into several areas.
One area was for the army to camp, another was for the public area, where the cultivators in the city could trade and provide simple supplies, and another was for the rest area, where all the cultivators could rest.
Now that Qin Shujian had completed the registration, he led the people of Yuan Sect to the rest area.
Walking on the street.
Many people were surprised when they saw Qin Shujian, and they involuntarily retreated to the side, not daring to block his path.
Many people knew the strongest cultivator in the cultivation world and the best blacksmith in the world.
Especially now.
One-third of the people who were able to come here were powerful cultivators in the cultivation world.
Qin Shujian did not know them, but they knew Qin Shujian.
The rest area.
It was actually a street full of inns.
But the difference was that the inns here were all set up with corresponding protective arrays to prevent the cultivators from being spied on or attacked and causing a certain amount of damage.
When Qin Shujian walked into the inn, he realized that this place had also used the method of storing Mount Sumeru in a mustard seed.
From the outside, it looked like an ordinary inn, but when he walked in, he realized that it was ridiculously spacious.
However, Qin Shujian was not surprised.
After all, there would be hundreds or thousands of people from a sect coming to help. Under normal circumstances, more than a dozen inns might not be able to accommodate so many people.
On the contrary, if they used this method, they could save a lot of space and some costs.
Because the rest area was free of charge.
After all, the cultivators came to help in the battle, but they still had to pay to find a place to stay. That would be very unreasonable.
Not only was the accommodation free, but the food was also free. Of course, if the food was good, they would have to pay extra.
But no matter what, the imperial court was still very polite to those who came to help in the battle.
Soon, some cultivators came.
"May I know which sect's cultivators are here?"
"I'm Qin Shujian of Yuan Sect, and I'm here with the cultivators of my sect," Qin Shujian directly reported his name.
All of a sudden.
The inn, which was originally noisy, immediately fell silent.
Yuan Sect — Qin Shujian!
Five simple words, but they weighed more than ten thousand pounds.
After being stunned for a moment, the cultivator immediately reacted and said respectfully, "So it's the people from Yuan Sect. Please follow me, Sect Master Qin and the rest. I'll arrange a room for you."
"Thank you!" Qin Shujian nodded slightly.
Then, the cultivator walked in front and led Qin Shujian and the rest upstairs.
It was called a staircase.
However, it was different from the staircase of an ordinary inn.
The staircase was ten feet wide and made of white stone. It was twenty feet long. When they reached the second floor, Qin Shujian realized that the space on the second floor was not smaller than the first floor.
With his perception, he could also sense that the surrounding space was stable.
The biggest problem with this kind of technique was that the space was not stable enough, and it was not easy to cause problems.
There was no doubt.
The array formation here was extremely stable.
According to Qin Shujian's estimation, one would need to be at least a Saint to break the array formation.
To be precise, one would need to have the destructive power of a Saint.
Looking at this place, Qin Shujian said, "I wonder who created this array formation?"
"Sect Master Qin, this array formation was created by Fang Yilan of the Imperial Astronomer." The cultivator walking in front paused and turned back to say with a smile.
"I see!"
Qin Shujian suddenly understood.
If it was set up by Fang Yilan, it would be different.
After all, she was a Second Realm Array Grandmaster. Her methods were naturally extraordinary.
Of course.
Although they were both Second Realm Grandmasters, Qin Shujian still thought that he was better than Fang Yilan.
After all, the increase in one's life source was the peak.
Strictly speaking, he was already at the peak of the Second Realm.
After walking some distance on the second floor, the cultivator led the people from Yuan Sect up the white stone stairs again.
As if he was afraid that Qin Shujian and the others would misunderstand, he explained as he walked, "The inn in the resting area has a total of five floors. The top floor is for the top sects.
The top floor is for the sects of the Major Domains, followed by the sects of the Spirit Dominion and the other Major Domains.
The second floor is for the sects of the True Dominion and the Spirit Dominion. The first floor is a public area where all the cultivators can exchange information. "
Classes were everywhere.
Even the accommodations were clearly divided.
However, this was normal.
If a top sect stayed next to a True Dominion sect …
Not only would the people of the top sects be unhappy, but the people of the True Dominion sect would also tremble.
Regarding such a division …
Qin Shujian was very satisfied.
After all, he was the one at the top, so there was naturally no reason for him to be dissatisfied. As for whether the sects would be unhappy because of this, it was none of his business. He was satisfied anyway.
What was the point of cultivating hard and improving one's strength?
One was to increase one's lifespan.
The other was for better enjoyment.
If fairness was emphasized everywhere, the passion for cultivation would be greatly reduced.
Under the guidance of that cultivator …
The people of the Origin Sect stepped directly onto the fifth floor.
From the outside, the inn was only twenty to thirty feet high. However, they now realized that the stairs alone were nearly 200 feet high.
Such a method …
Other sects would have been shocked, but the people of the Origin Sect did not find it too strange.
This was because their library also had the same method of storing Sumeru in a mustard seed.
When they reached the fifth floor, they saw a row of rooms densely packed together.
That cultivator stopped in his tracks and said, "Sect Master Qin, your sect can choose any place to rest on the fifth floor. Besides your sect, no other sect's cultivators will set foot on this floor."
"The fifth floor can only accommodate one sect?"
Qin Shujian's Spiritual Force scanned the entire fifth floor with his perception.
That cultivator said, "Every inn can only accommodate one top sect. Once your sect stays here, our inn will not accept a second top sect. The same goes for the other inns."
"I understand."
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first. If Sect Master Qin has any instructions, you can send a message at any time. There is a communication jade token in every room."
"Thank you!"
Qin Shujian nodded his head slightly.
That cultivator immediately retreated.
"Tsk, the treatment is really good." After that cultivator left, Niu Feng looked at the surrounding environment and clicked his tongue in wonder.
Xu Yuanming said, "The top sects have contributed the most. I'm afraid the fighting will be the most tragic when the time comes. It's just a small profit now."
The environment of the fifth floor was indeed good.
However, as a member of the Origin Sect, how could he not have seen the world?
Qin Shujian said, "All disciples can rest here for a while. If you have something to do, you can go out for a walk. However, don't leave the city easily and don't get into any conflicts with others for the time being.
If anyone provokes you first, leave behind evidence before killing them! "
"Yes, Sect Master!"
The other disciples nodded their heads in acknowledgement.
Qin Shujian waved his hand and dismissed the disciples.
This time, because of the imperial court's order, not only did Qin Shujian bring the elders of the main sect, but he also transferred over thousands of disciples of the True Martial Realm from the various branches.
These disciples.
There were natives as well as players.
In this regard, Qin Shujian did not discriminate too much.
This was because every branch would hold a small competition regularly. The disciples that he selected were the top 1,000 cultivators of the True Martial Realm.
After entering the room.
Immediately, a player disciple looked at the surrounding environment and said with a smile, "This environment is really good. I heard from my friend that when their sect came, they didn't have such treatment."
"Of course. Don't you know who's behind them?"
Another player sneered.
Being able to enter the Origin Sect was their biggest advantage.
At this moment.
There was also a player who took a video and posted it on the forum.
This matter that shook the entire Eastern Continent had attracted the attention of all the players.
Everyone could understand.
For some players, this war might be a great opportunity.
On the other side.
Qin Shujian did not stay on the fifth floor for long. He turned around and walked down.
After exiting the inn, he decided on a direction and walked straight towards it.
Not long after.
In a room of a restaurant.
The two sat opposite each other.
"I haven't seen you for a few months. Sect Master Qin's reputation is getting bigger and bigger. It will be difficult to see you in the future." Looking at Qin Shujian in front of him, Si Hanhai had a faint smile on his face.
Compared to the last time.
Now, the strongest person of the Overlook Sea Sect seemed to have a sharper edge.
Qin Shujian smiled faintly and said, "Brother Hanhai, you're making things difficult for me. I didn't expect that our two sects would coincidentally be in the same city."
"It's all fate." Si Hanhai smiled and said, "I wonder what Sect Master Qin thinks about fate?"
"Let's not talk about such things as fate."
Qin Shujian shook his head and said.
He had met Si Hanhai a few times, and the other party always gave him a different feeling.
In particular, Godslayer said that the other party had secrets.
Qin Shujian was even more curious about this.
However, since it was a secret, Si Hanhai would certainly not say it.
"In another day or two, the passage to the three continents will be opened. Sect Master Qin, what do you think the Eastern Continent's chances of winning are?"
"It's meaningless to guess the chances of winning. If the chances of winning are not high, will Brother Hanhai just surrender?"
"Sect Master Qin, you must be joking."
"Since that's the case, it's useless to know the outcome. When the time comes, we'll just fight."
Qin Shujian said with a faint smile. Then, he picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip.
Si Hanhai nodded and said, "Sect Master Qin, you're right."
Then.
There was an inexplicable expression on his old face.
"I can already feel the aura of slaughter!"
