The exit of the Holy Road was similar to the entrance of the Ancient Barren World that connected the top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory. When Ye Futian walked out of the Dawn Road, he was on a cliff. Many people looked over from afar. They seemed to know that they would come out and waited there, full of curiosity.
These people all had different levels of cultivation. Beside them, there was a group of strong cultivators guarding. They said to them, "The Holy Road will be open for three days. In these three days, you will not leave the island city. Remember, no disputes are allowed in the island city. If you have any grievances, you can find the island lord to decide. Anyone who disobeys will be killed. In three days, you will know what to do."
"Yes." Everyone nodded. Three days should be a buffer period. If the people on the Dawn Road had a chance to get a holy badge, they could leave in three days. However, Ye Futian guessed that it wouldn't take three days at all. If they didn't get a holy badge on the first day, they probably wouldn't get one. Those who got one would come out directly.
Moreover, this seemed to be an island city. No fighting was allowed. Anyone who disobeyed would be killed. The rules were extremely strict.
Now, they were in the Holy Zhi Palace's territory. Everything naturally had to follow the Holy Zhi Palace's rules.
"Go," the strong cultivator continued. Ye Futian turned around and looked at the vast number of people walking out from behind him. He cupped his hands and said, "Now that we are in the territory of the Holy Zhi Palace, we are safe and sound. Everyone, farewell."
"Take care, Master Ye."
Many people cupped their hands at Ye Futian gratefully. They were safe here. No fighting was allowed in the island city.
"Okay." Ye Futian nodded and left the area in a flash. Although the people in the distance were watching, they did not recognize the person who walked out. The people of Dao City were considered collateral relatives of the Holy Zhi Palace and were under the jurisdiction of the Holy Zhi Palace.
"Mu Zhiqiu, where are we?" Ye Futian's figure flashed. He realized that this was like a real city. There were restaurants and inns, and it was quite prosperous.
Other than Mu Zhiqiu's group, there were also people from the Starry School and Mount Jiuxian beside him.
"You don't know the Thousand Holy Islands?" Beside him, an air warship appeared. Bing Yi, Chu Shang, and the other cultivators from the Mortal World appeared on it. The one who had spoken was Bing Yi. She was beautiful, and her temperament was cold. She looked at Ye Futian curiously.
She really wanted to know how Ning Huang had died.
Was he really killed by Yu Sheng who had gone berserk?
Also, why was Yuan Zhan with Ye Futian and the others?
At that moment, Yuan Zhan was still among Ye Futian's group, and it seemed that he was traveling with Ye Futian. If they were simply working together on the Dawn Road, they would not have ended up like this, would they?
"I am ignorant and inexperienced. How can I be compared to the Saintess of the mortal world?" Ye Futian smiled and looked at Bing Yi. Bing Yi frowned slightly. Ye Futian's gaze was frivolous. His eyes wandered around her body as if he was examining her. His gaze made her very uncomfortable. It was practically an insult to her.
In the Barren State, the top-notch figures with status would not have looked at him with such disrespect, and ordinary people would not have dared to look at him like that. However, Ye Futian was different.
"Hmph." Bing Yi snorted coldly. She turned her beautiful eyes and her clothes fluttered. She said indifferently, "If you don't know, you can go up into the sky and take a look. Then you will know what this place is."
After saying that, the air warship streaked past and sped up into the sky. Ye Futian looked at Mu Zhiqiu and Yuan Zhan, and they both nodded. Yuan Zhan said, "This is also my first time here. Let's go take a look."
"Alright." Ye Futian replied. Then, the group of people flew upwards, rising higher and higher into the air.
As their bodies continued to rise, the city and buildings below them gradually became smaller and smaller in their field of vision. They continued to move upwards, and Ye Futian's heart trembled slightly. When he rose to a high enough height, the scene in front of him shocked him a little.
The city below was actually a city built on top of a mountain. It was densely packed, and the mountain was very tall, reaching into the clouds. Thus, the city looked like it was floating in the sky.
What truly shocked Ye Futian was that when he stood in the air and looked down, what he saw was far more than just the floating city below. In the vast and endless sea, there were countless mountains of different heights towering over the sea. The top of each mountain had been built into a city. At first glance, it looked like there were thousands of islands. It was magnificent and extremely spectacular.
This was a vast and boundless sea. All the mountain peaks rose from the sea. However, the seawater here was very strange. There were no violent waves. Instead, it was very calm. Moreover, the blue sea reflected the blue sky and white clouds, as well as the reflections of the mountain peaks.
"Thousand Holy Islands." Ye Futian's heart trembled slightly. Not far away, the air warship was also there. Bing Yi looked at Ye Futian and said indifferently, "This is the Holy River. The Thousand Holy Islands on the Holy River are all under the jurisdiction of the Holy Zhi Palace. All the Island Lords of the Thousand Holy Islands came from the Holy Zhi Palace. At first, they were the family members of the Holy Zhi Palace's disciples. Later, more and more family members lived here, and it evolved into the Thousand Holy Islands today. If any disciple of the Holy Zhi Palace is willing to stay to cultivate after their cultivation is successful, they can be appointed as the Island Lord of one of the floating islands. That island belongs to them."
Ye Futian nodded slightly. The Holy Zhi Palace had been passed down for countless years and was no longer just a palace. Everything on the Holy River was under the jurisdiction of the Holy Zhi Palace, and there were countless strong cultivators.
His gaze wandered around the Thousand Holy Islands, and then landed on a floating mountain in the center. It had an unparalleled majesty, and on the top of the mountain stood many magnificent palaces.
"That's where we'll be going in three days. The Holy Zhi Palace, are you ready?" After saying this, Bing Yi left on her battleship. In these three days, she had to prepare for everything that would happen next. Now, the geniuses of the nine Holy Roads had all walked out of the Holy Road and were now in different island cities.
Ye Futian stayed in the air for a long time before he descended and said, "Let's go down."
Everyone nodded and entered the island city together. With the opening of the Holy Road and the arrival of the geniuses, the island city became extremely lively. The restaurants and inns were busy, and there were often people asking about and discussing everything that had happened in the Holy Road. They would even interact with other island cities to find out about the news of the nine Holy Roads.
Two days later, in the largest restaurant of the island city, people were discussing what had happened in the Holy Road.
"I heard that Elder Ning's descendant, Ning Huang, was killed by a demonic figure called Yu Sheng. This person has not entered the Noble Plane yet, but he was able to enter the demonic state and transform into a terrifying killing god. He chopped off Ning Huang's head, and he's a god of death."
"In the Dawn Road, rumor has it that Xiao Junyi is the heir of the Dark Sage. He's extremely dangerous, and it's very likely that he's the strongest person in the Dawn Road."
"What about Yan Jiu from the Sword Saint Villa?"
"Yan Jiu was injured by Ye Futian and Yuan Zhan, and even his holy badge was stolen. I'm afraid Yan Jiu will never forget such humiliation."
"Who exactly are Ye Futian and Yu Sheng's group? They've appeared out of nowhere, and it's very demonic. The Palace's disciple recruitment this time must be very lively. Just the Dawn Road alone has produced so many outstanding figures."
"Indeed. This is only the Fifth Earthly Road. The three strongest Holy Roads among the nine Holy Roads have always been the Barren Road in the center, the Nether Road in the north, and the Qian Road in the west. Now, these three Holy Roads must have produced shocking figures."
"The Barren Road is where the geniuses of Zhongzhou City gather. It's always been the Holy Road with the most geniuses, and its average ability is the strongest. Someone said with a smile. Of the nine Holy Roads, eight of them crossed the boundaries of Zhongzhou and directly led to the central region of Zhongzhou City. The ninth Holy Road was within Zhongzhou City, and it was the Holy Road where the experts of Zhongzhou City gathered.
Zhongzhou City was the largest central city in the Barren State, and one could imagine how prosperous it was.
The Zhuge Family was not located within Zhongzhou City. Instead, it was located in an area outside Zhongzhou City known as the Zhongzhou Boundary. The Mortal World, the Nantian House, the Sword Saint Villa, and many other forces were located in this area. Further east would be the eastern region of the Barren State, where the Zhaixing House and Divine Sky City were located.
"I heard that a young man came to White Cloud City. He's a peerless genius, and he's extremely young. He's only in his twenties, but he's already in the Noble Plane. His combat ability is frightening, and he's almost as powerful as the young city lord of White Cloud City."
"Didn't the Zhuge Family also send a genius? If that woman is included, they could be considered two, but the woman's plane is slightly weaker."
"The Demon God Clan also sent a peerless genius. Tomorrow, everyone will be able to see the geniuses of the nine Holy Roads. Let's just wait and see." The crowd discussed spiritedly. At that moment, a figure stood up and left the restaurant. Immediately, many people followed him and left.
Ye Futian came to the edge of the island city. Before him was a cliff. He looked at an island city on a mountain in the distance. He did not know which island Jieyu was on, but he would be able to see her tomorrow.
At that moment, in another island city, Hua Jieyu was cultivating in an inn. The sound of footsteps was heard, and Hua Jieyu opened her eyes. She was beautiful and refined, as if she was not a person of this world.
"Senior Sister." Hua Jieyu smiled lightly.
"Busy cultivating again?" Zhuge Mingyue said with a smile. The island was the Holy Zhi Palace's territory, and according to the rules, outsiders were not allowed to set foot on it. However, Zhuge Mingyue was not considered an outsider. Her father and brother had both trained in the Holy Zhi Palace, and as such, an exception was made.
"Yes." Hua Jieyu nodded slightly. "Senior Sister, will he come?"
"Who knows." Zhuge Mingyue smiled lightly. "Right, that annoying guy outside brought a handsome young man. I heard that he's a super genius from White Cloud City. He's here to visit. Do you want to see him?"
Hua Jieyu naturally knew who the annoying guy Zhuge Mingyue was referring to was: the White Cloud City's Young City Lord.
"Senior Sister, you know me." Hua Jieyu smiled gently.
"I know, so I rejected him for you." Zhuge Mingyue looked at Hua Jieyu and smiled. "I don't know where that brat got the luck to make you only think about him. Jieyu, what's so good about that brat?"
"Him?" Hua Jieyu thought of that naughty figure and revealed a stunning smile. "Nothing good!"
"Then you still like him?" Zhuge Mingyue giggled.
