Along the way, Yi Tian was able to gain a basic understanding of the Spirit Realm through Shen Yeming's introductions. Unfortunately, this guide was only at the Deity Transformation Stage, so he only had a rough idea of the higher levels.
Even so, this was still an eye-opener for Yi Tian. There were three Grand Ascension Stage cultivators in the Spirit Realm. Needless to say, the three of them were in charge of the Lifire Palace, the Feiyu Kenshū Sect, and the Taiqing Pavilion.
Furthermore, Shen Yeming seemed to hold the Lifire Palace in high regard, so he learned that there were differences in strength among the three Grand Ascension Stage cultivators. The one in the Lifire Palace was definitely one of the top cultivators in the Spirit Realm, but he usually wouldn't show himself. As for any matters, they were all handled by the other two.
Needless to say, this was a stable situation maintained by the three powers. However, Yi Tian couldn't help but be taken aback. The one in the Lifire Palace definitely wasn't someone to be trifled with. Furthermore, Patriarch Wu Ye had ascended 400 years ago, so he would definitely pose a threat to him.
It wouldn't be long before the three powers in the Spirit Realm were going to change. However, there was nothing he could do about it. Since he had come to the Spirit Realm, he was bound to be embroiled in this conflict. He just hoped that these things would come later so he would have enough time to prepare.
What he lacked the most right now was time. Knowing that the path ahead would be difficult, Yi Tian felt very depressed, but he still pretended to be listening attentively.
According to Shen Yeming, the cultivation cities in the Spirit Realm were divided into three levels: Heaven, Earth, and Human. The closest city, Luo Xia City, was only a human-level cultivation city.
There were no less than several hundred such cities, and most of the city lords in those cities were at the Severed Soul Stage. As for the earth-level cities, there were over 20 of them spread throughout the entire Spirit Realm, and the cultivators in those cities were at the Body Integration Stage.
Upon hearing this, Yi Tian couldn't help but ask, "Are there only three heaven-level cities, and they are overseen by three Grand Ascension Stage cultivators?"
Shen Yeming smiled and replied, "Brother Yi, I'm just making a logical judgment. It's a pity that I'm wrong."
Yi Tian frowned slightly and hurriedly asked, "Could Fellow Daoist Shen please enlighten me?"
Seeing Yi Tian's sincere and humble attitude, Shen Yeming felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart. He then replied, "There were originally three Sky-level cities, but it was said that during the Realm War eight thousand years ago, the Demon Race invaded and occupied the Qingfeng City under the rule of the Taiqing Pavilion for thousands of years. Even though the three Grand Ascension Stage cultivators had joined forces to drive the devilish race out of this realm, Clearwind City still hadn't recovered to this day. Moreover, I heard that there are still some remnants left behind by the Demon Race in the city that haven't been completely cleaned up. "
"In that case, doesn't Taiqing Pavilion need to relocate and build a new city?" Yi Tian asked.
Shen Yeming nodded in agreement before replying: "That is indeed the case, so the Taiqing Pavilion established a new city thirty thousand li to the west of the original location. It was also named 'Qingfeng City', and all the facilities in the old city were moved there."
"Isn't that still a Sky-level city?"
Shen Yeming pursed his lips in disdain. "It's not even a Sky-level city. After all, it's still differentiated by the strength of the earth veins. The earth veins in that new city are still somewhat different from the original location, but they're still several times better than ordinary Sky-level cities. The earth veins in the old city have been damaged, so the two new cities can only be considered quasi-Sky-level cities. However, some busybodies still call them the Qingfeng Twin Stars, glossing over the defeat that the Taiqing Pavilion suffered back then. "
Changing the name to a flower name could make things look peaceful. When Yi Tian heard this, he found it really funny. It seemed that the Taiqing Pavilion was much weaker than the other two sects, so it was bound to be severely damaged after being invaded by the Demon Race.
Furthermore, from what he could see, since the Old Clear Wind City could not be completely abandoned, there must be some unknown secret behind it. However, with his current level of cultivation, it was impossible for him to have the opportunity to find out about it. It would be good enough if he could get a rough idea of it from others.
Along the way, he followed Shen Yeming into Luoxia City, then flew directly to a tall building in the north of the city. Just now, when he looked down at the scale of Luoxia City from high up in the sky, he discovered that this human-level city was ten times larger than the largest city in the Central Prefecture of the Tianlan Continent.
However, this was only the lowest level city, so how large would the Earth and Sky-level cities be? Thinking up to here, Yi Tian's mouth sighed, secretly praising.
Shen Yeming, who was leading the way, didn't say much. In fact, when he first came here, he wasn't much better, but now, he pretended to be mature and prudent.
Outside the tall building, Yi Tian could see the three words "Reception Department" written in the language of the Spirit Realm from afar. Needless to say, this was the destination of his trip.
After arriving outside the Reception Department, Yi Tian used his Divine Sense to find that the cultivators on duty outside were all at the middle stage of Yuanying. He was shocked. It seemed that there were really 'Yuanying as many as dogs, and Deity Transformation Stage cultivators were everywhere.' Only at the higher stage of Deity Transformation Stage could one be regarded as a powerful expert.
Shen Yeming walked to the front door and took out his identity jade card and handed it over. After the two guards checked it, they extended their Divine Sense and hurriedly went in to report when Yi Tian reached out his hand.
Not long after, three bell tolls rang out in the reception office. Then, the door opened and a cultivator who appeared to be in his thirties walked out. After seeing Yi Tian, he sized him up and said, "I am Hong Fei of the Reception Department. Congratulations to Brother Yi for ascending to this world, please follow me."
Yi Tian cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist, please." Then, he strode forward and followed.
After walking from the front door to the reception room of the Reception Department, Yi Tian used his Divine Sense to find that there was already a cultivator waiting inside. After bringing him to the door, Hong Fei turned to Shen Yeming and said, "Envoy Shen, you can go to the Inspection Department to receive your merit points. The reception desk will be guarded by someone else."
Shen Yeming's face was filled with joy and he hurriedly replied respectfully, "Many thanks, Supervisor Hong. I will go and hand in the mission now." Then, he turned to Yi Tian and said, "Brother Yi, please forgive this old man for his duty. In the future, if fate wills it, please take care of me. This old man lives in the Heaven Street at the head of the Nine Palace Street. "
Yi Tian smiled and returned the greeting, "Many thanks for accompanying Fellow Daoist Shen. If there is a chance in the future, Yi Tian will personally come and thank you."
Hong Fei seemed to frown as if he was a little concerned about this relationship. Seeing this, Shen Yeming hurriedly excused himself.
After he left, Hong Fei said, "Brother Yi, you don't have to be so polite to such a cultivator. An ascended cultivator like you will definitely have a bright future in the future. It is not something a small Luoxia City can keep."
Yi Tian didn't know why, but he didn't dare to offend Hong Fei, so he nodded and responded, "Many thanks for Supervisor Hong's advice. I just came to the spiritual world and didn't know much, so I asked Fellow Daoist Shen on the way."
Hong Fei understood and said, "This is not difficult. After you meet the Reception Department Master, you can go to the city's Book Pavilion to find the information you need."
