Zhang Yan sat on a prayer mat, looking up at the stars in the sky.
This part of the world was very different from the Nine Continents, and the number of years was also different.
He could clearly sense that one day in this Realm was equivalent to two days in the Nine Continents. And yet, every day, his lifespan was reduced exactly the same as before.
In other words, if you ignored the number of years that had passed on the surface, then your lifespan would be doubled.
He shifted his gaze and looked in the direction of the great sun.
Before, the sun and moon revolved around the Nine Continents. But things were different in this place. The light of the sun and moon was constantly illuminated by different stars.
Because they moved forward and backward, they moved forward and backward, and were almost joined together. Therefore, to the people on the ground, it looked like the sun was rising from the east and setting in the west, going back and forth. In truth, it was nothing more than an illusory image. The sun that appeared in the next moment was not the sun that appeared in the previous moment.
After the twenty-four hours passed, the sky above the Mountain and Sea Realm was covered by a barrier of air, and the sun transformed into a moon.
The reason for this was that the Mountain and Sea Realm was like any living creature. It also breathed in and out, and when it breathed in, it lit up the sky. When it exhaled, it darkened the sky. Thus, day and night were separated.
Seeing this, Meng Hao couldn't help but understand.
At this time, Jing You carefully walked over. He bowed and said, "Master, just now a disciple sent a message saying that there's a person flying in the sky and heading towards me. It looks like he's a native cultivator. Should we call someone to stop him?"
"A native cultivator?"
Zhang Yan thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "There's no need to stop him. If he comes to my place, ask Meng Zhen to entertain him."
Jing You nodded, then left to pass on the message.
Thousands of miles away, a large green eagle with a body of more than a thousand feet flew over. The eagle's neck was covered with a loose lock, and there were long thorns strung on it. On its back, there were five people pulling the ropes from behind. If it deviated from its course, If it strayed off course, the eagle would feel some pain, and then it would be pulled back.
The eagle's back was wide enough for a hundred people to sit on. At the most flat area, there was a canopy. Mo Du was sitting under it. Behind him, there were dozens of solemn-looking armored guards.
Among them was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. His expression and attitude were completely different from the others. His eyes were filled with excitement and expectation, but also a little uneasy.
This was Gongzi Kuang's younger brother, Gongzi Huai. This time, it was necessary to bring someone from the Duke clan, so he was also sent along.
Squatting on the eagle's head was a dwarf with huge eyes. At this moment, he pointed upwards and said, "Grand Palace Master, it's right in front. We just need to cross that fog barrier. "
Mo Du raised his head and looked. Above him was a ball of thick fog that was boundless and boundless. It was definitely not formed naturally by the heaven and earth. It should have been set up by someone from beyond the heavens.
He thought that with the ability of the people from outer space, it would be impossible for them to not discover them. Now that they did not come out to stop them, it was obvious that they had tacitly approved of their arrival. With a stern voice, he said, "Later, no matter what happens, without my permission, none of you are to act rashly."
The attendants behind him all acknowledged the order.
Mo Du raised his hand, and the person riding the eagle in front understood. With a pull of the rope, the Great Green Eagle let out a shrill cry and flew straight up into the clouds.
Everyone held their breaths. After they passed through the clouds, the scenery in front of them suddenly changed. Auspicious lights and auspicious air were everywhere. Flying peaks and floating islands were scattered in the vast heaven and earth. From afar, they could see people in feathered robes and star crowns walking in the air. There were even flying boats and spiritual birds flying across the sky and circling around the peaks.
On those hanging mountains, the fog was faintly discernible. There were waterfalls and springs everywhere, and countless palaces and halls were erected on them. Between the green branches and trees, one could vaguely see the curved eaves, golden bells and bronze beasts.
Everything here, no matter if it was the clothes, accessories, halls, or mountains, they were all gorgeous and exquisite, and it was greatly different from the scene in the eastern wilderness that was filled with a savage aura. Everyone on the back of the eagle was stunned when they suddenly saw this scene.
Gongzi Huai, on the other hand, was very excited, and his eyes lit up.
Beneath Mo Du's feet was a vast sea of clouds that rolled and floated, spreading to the end of the sky. He could no longer see any part of Eastern Barren, as if he was in another world.
And to hang an island in the sky, not to mention that the four great academies of Shenfang Country did not have the ability to do so, even Eastern Barren Country could not do it. In the records of the God Nation, there might be a few words about it, but he dared to conclude that even back then, there were definitely not many of such things.
Just from this point, it could be seen that the supernatural ability of the people from outer space was far superior to the countries of Eastern Barren.
His gaze fell on those cultivators, and he thought, "Looking at those people's bearing and demeanor, they are very different from us Mystic cultivators. They must have taken a different path of Mystic cultivation. However, the flying object under their feet is indeed a powerful weapon of the country, and it looks like an ordinary object. If I can use it, it will definitely increase the national power of Shenfang Country."
Although there were eagles that could be ridden in the vassal states, these birds were not easy to catch, and they still needed to be specially controlled and looked after by servants. Moreover, their daily food consumption was also a huge amount. It was still okay if they were slightly smaller in size, but only the families of nobles could afford to keep them, and it was difficult to have a certain number of them.
However, if there were thousands of such flying boats, the Mystic cultivators in the country could go thousands of miles away at any time. Not only could they connect the four directions, they could also send troops to a city at any time to deter the other countries.
He secretly made up his mind that no matter what price he had to pay, he must find a way to get his hands on this object.
At this moment, a little kingfisher flapped its wings and flew over. After circling around everyone, it suddenly turned into a little girl with fair makeup. She clasped her hands behind her back, stood on her tiptoes, and looked up to ask, "Where did you come from?"
Everyone's expression tensed up. "Spirit demon?"
In the Eastern Barren land, demons that could change between human and demon forms were all called spirit demons. These kinds of demons were mostly descendants of the ancient demon saints.
Master Gongzi Huai took a step forward and bowed to her, saying, "This lady is very polite."
He used the national accent of the Eastern Barren Country. After all, the Heavenly Nation had unified the human path in the past. Whenever there was an alliance between countries, or when the monarchs and ministers of two countries talked, they still used this as the official accent.
However, the little girl that the kingfisher transformed into did not understand his words. She hummed and tilted her head to think for a moment. Then, her eyes brightened, and she stretched out her hands. It was a green willow leaf.
After Master Gongzi Huai took it, he saw that the little girl held it up with both hands and made a small biting gesture. He understood what she meant, looked at the willow leaf, and sent it into her mouth.
"Master!"
The servants at the side were shocked, and wanted to go forward to stop him.
However, Master Gongzi Huai waved his hand, indicating that it was fine. He loosened the leaf into his mouth, and when it reached his tongue, he felt it turn into a clear air that seeped into his brain. Instantly, he felt some mysterious changes in his body.
The little girl looked at him without blinking, and said, "Did you understand what I said?"
Master Gongzi Huai nodded, and the little girl was very happy. She started to talk with him, but after a few sentences, they suddenly heard a long whistle in the sky, as if someone was calling the little girl. So, she waved at Master Gongzi Huai, and turned into a kingfisher again, flapping her wings and flying away.
Mo Du was Just Now watching, and did not come out to stop her. Only now did he call Master Gongzi Huai over, and asked, "How did Master understand the words of the little girl?"
Master Gongzi Huai thought for a moment, and said, "It wasn't that I understood her words, but with the help of the willow leaf, my mind and the little girl's thoughts are connected. Even without spoken words, I could understand her meaning."
Mo Du couldn't help but nod, and he thought to himself, "There are many tribes of savages in the forests in the southwest of Shen Fang Country, but they don't understand the language, and it's hard to recruit them. If we can obtain this method, we can greatly increase the population."
He asked again, "Did you ask about the origins of those people from beyond the sky?"
Master Gongzi Huai shook his head regretfully, and said, "Just Now, I only know that the spirit bird is called Xi Cui, and she said that she came from a sect called Bi Yu Xuan, and is a spirit bird under an elder in the sect."
He added at the end, "Huai privately guessed that the so-called sect might be like my school, and that the elder might be someone like Master Gong."
Mo Du made a sound of acknowledgement. Although the specific situation might not be so simple, he could get a rough understanding from this.
Right at this moment, he heard a long and drawn-out cry. He turned around to look and saw a clear light shooting over. Its speed was so swift that it flashed like a bolt of lightning, and many people hadn't even reacted when it had already arrived nearby.
The light dispersed, and a beautiful lady with her hair tied up in a bun and a long belt around her waist came out. She bowed to everyone, and said, "Honorable guest, please forgive me for not coming out to greet you."
Although Mo Du couldn't understand her words, he could understand the meaning behind them. He put his hands together, and sent them forward, and returned the greeting.
The lady stretched out her jade wrist, and took out a jade scroll, and sent it forward gently.
Mo Du had a change of mind, and with a wave of his hand, a crystal clear spirit bird appeared in the sky, and grabbed the jade scroll, and sent it over.
When he held it in his hand, he touched it, and a clear light rose. Rows and rows of words floated past his eyes, and there was even a sound of chanting beside his ears.
He immediately knew that this must be the language used by the people from outer space.
In fact, he was not unprepared for this trip, and he brought along a talking bird. This bird was born with the ability to understand sentimental and spiritual sounds, and it could be used as a translator. However, the other party sent this item, and it was obvious that they had the intention of testing him. As the Grand Palace Master of Shen Fang Country, he naturally couldn't show weakness and bring down the country's prestige.
At the end of the day, he was a Great Mystic cultivator. Having cultivated to this stage, mere words and phrases were not difficult for him at all. After reading it once, he was already familiar with it. He nodded at the woman and said, "Thank you."
The lady smiled, and bowed again, and said, "Meng Zhen is already waiting in front. Honorable guests, please follow me."
As she spoke, she rode the light and led the way in front.
Mo Du gestured for them to follow, and the big green eagle followed behind them.
After traveling for more than a thousand miles, the misty clouds dispersed, and a huge floating continent appeared in front of them. Just Now, those flying peaks and floating islands were like tiny insects compared to it.
A man in his forties with a light beard and long robe stood on a floating tower to welcome them. His body was filled with a vast clear air, and in the light above his head, there were waves rolling. His aura seemed to come from afar, but also seemed to be nearby. Seeing the arrival of the crowd, his gaze turned, and landed on Mo Du. He bowed, and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
Mo Du chewed on the word 'Fellow Daoist', and only felt that it was lingering in his memory. His expression turned serious, and he bowed solemnly, and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
