After the flying boat rushed into the cloud vortex, the light above their heads dispersed, instantly revealing a boundless void.
Zhang Yu looked over and saw that in front of the void, there were clusters of star fog clouds. They fused together, dazzling and magnificent, colorful and beautiful, almost occupying his entire field of vision.
These star fog clouds seemed to be frozen in place, but when he inadvertently glanced at them, they seemed to be moving, as if there was a huge eye looking at him.
At this moment, a voice came from outside, "Inspector Zhang, Wei Jie Yin is here to visit."
Zhang Yu turned around and said, "Please come in."
The outside cabin door opened and Wei Gao walked in. He also saw the scene above the cabin roof and said, "This is the outer layer. The outer layer's scenery is magnificent and colorful, no matter how many times I see it, I don't feel bored, but all our troubles come from there. "
He slowly retracted his gaze and said, "Inspector Zhang, in a while, we will reach the Tianyuan Lake Terrace. We have already prepared a civilian flying boat for you there, you can take it directly to the Kui Mansion."
As he spoke, he handed over a jade scroll, "When you reach the Kui Mansion, there will be someone to receive you, but that person will not know your true identity.
The person we have arranged for the Patrol Inspector is a Daoist cultivator who has been preparing to go to the outer regions since a year ago. In order to obtain cultivation resources, this person has joined an organization under the command of the Heaven City Army. However, due to some delays, he has only started his journey now. There are many Daoist cultivators like this in the Kui Residence, so they will not attract too much attention.
Of course, if you feel that it is inconvenient, you can choose not to use this identity. "
Zhang Yu took the jade scroll and used his mind power to scan it. He saw that it was a record of this identity and his past. His general experience could be said to be ordinary, but he still used his own name.
However, there were many cultivators who went to the outer layer, and there were many with the same name. In fact, as long as he did not take the initiative to expose his identity as the Xuanting Inspector, not many people would waste effort to investigate him.
In fact, even if someone really wanted to investigate, they would at most find out that he was Qingyang Xuanzheng, and this identity would instead become another layer of cover for him.
Just as they were talking, the flying boat trembled slightly, and the top of the cabin wall quickly fused back to its original appearance.
Wei Gao said, "We have arrived. Inspector Zhang can take the flying boat to Kui Mansion from here."
He walked to the side. He stretched out his hand and touched the wall of the cabin. Instantly, a crack appeared, revealing a triangular passage leading to the outside. He said, "Patrol Envoy Zhang, have a safe journey."
Zhang Yu nodded to him and walked out, all the way until he came to a glass pillar cabin. As the boat door behind him closed tightly, the Jade Floating Disc below carried him down.
He looked at the outside, and what appeared in front of him was an unusually vast deck of boats. The huge glass dome above seemed to cover half of the sky, and there were rows of similar oval-shaped flying boats on the left and right. At this moment, a huge boat was descending straight from the sky, landing on the empty berth.
Further away, he could see that outside the dome, there were square pillars that reached the sky in a semicircle. In the middle of the square pillars, there was an erratic light curtain. From time to time, a flying boat would fly into the light curtain, and then disappear.
According to his previous conversation with Wei Gao, he knew that was where the Xuanting Heavenly Gates that led to the various constellations were. If he wanted to go to Kui Mansion, he had to pass through that place.
After about twenty breaths, the Jade Floating Disc landed on the ground from a height of more than ten thousand feet.
Li Qinghe, Qing Shu, Qing Xi, and Miao Danjun had been waiting here for a while. When they saw him coming down, they all came up to greet him.
Zhang Yu glanced at them and said, "Let's go." He reached out and put on the hood of the "Heavenly Vast Jade Conferring Garment", then turned and walked into a tall cabin in the distance.
Inside the huge boat, Wei Gao stood high up and watched Zhang Yu's figure gradually walk away. He said to the female guard beside him, "Tell the station that the inspector has successfully received him."
The female guard nodded, turned, and walked out.
When Zhang Yu entered the cabin, the people Wei Gao arranged here came to receive him, and then led him to a medium-sized flying boat named "Blue Maple".
The captain of the flying boat was surnamed You, and he didn't know Zhang Yu's true identity. He only knew that the person on his flying boat this time was a mid-level cultivator.
Even in the outer layer, mid-level cultivators were the backbone of the resistance against foreign enemies, so he didn't dare to be negligent. He met Zhang Yu as usual, and after asking if he had any other requests, he left with peace of mind.
Zhang Yu sat down in the spacious cabin. He took a book from the bookshelf and flipped through it. It was an introduction to the foreign creatures in the outer layer. Although the text was very simple, it was accompanied by many detailed drawings, so it didn't feel boring to read.
When You Zhoushou returned to the main cabin, a beautiful girl about fifteen or sixteen years old with two buns on her head came up and asked curiously, "Uncle, who is that guest?"
You Zhoushou shook his head and said, "I only know that he's a mid-level cultivator from the inner layer."
The girl's eyes lit up, and she asked curiously, "From the inner layer? I've never seen a cultivator from the inner layer before. Uncle, what does he look like?"
Zhang Yu was wearing a big hat, so You Zhoushou couldn't see his face clearly. He said perfunctorily, "He looks like that. No matter if he's from the inner layer or outer layer, he's from Tianxia. As long as he doesn't have mixed-blood ancestors, he looks the same as you and me."
The girl blinked and said, "Oh, I heard that there are many mixed-blood in the inner layer. Maybe this Xuanxiu looks different?"
You Zhoushou steered the flying boat and didn't have the mood to talk to his niece. He gave a few instructions to the young assistant, and then pressed his hand on the jade board.
After a while, as circles of light flashed past the flying boat, the flying boat rose from the berth and flew toward the square jade pillar in the distance.
Zhang Yu raised his eyes and looked outside. He saw the entire flying boat submerged in the light, and then he lost his sense of it. He could only see the colorful mist and light ribbons drifting by.
This voyage would take half a month on the road. Ordinary people might find it boring to be cooped up in the cabin for so many days, but for a cultivator like him, it was just a short period of time.
After entering the fourth chapter of the book, he could feel that his life was passing by very slowly.
He didn't know how long his lifespan was, but if there were no accidents on the way, he could easily live for more than a thousand years, or even longer.
But now he only had a little power to protect himself, so it was far from the time to stop.
After flipping through some valuable books, he said a few words to Li Qinghe and then returned to the inner cabin to meditate.
Time flew, and fifteen days passed in a flash.
Zhang Yu was originally sitting on the soft couch when he suddenly felt the hull of the ship tremble slightly. He opened his eyes and saw that the ribbons of light outside the cabin were gradually disappearing, and countless swirling cloud vortexes appeared around him.
After a few more breaths, the boat shook again, and then a huge floating city in the void appeared in front of him. Below the city, there was an earth star with blue and white clouds floating on the surface.
He stood up and came to the side of the cabin wall. He knew that this sky city should be the Yi Wei Tian City mentioned by Wei Gao, and the earth star below should be the destination of this trip, the Kui Constellation Star.
It was just that as soon as he arrived here, he felt a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't tell what the problem was. He relaxed his mind slightly and protected his whole body.
After the blue maple boat passed through the Gate of Heaven, the bow of the boat adjusted slightly, and a light flashed on the body of the boat, and it swooped down to the earth star below.
But after flying for a short while, the entire flying boat shook violently.
You Zhoushou's expression tightened, and he said, "Why is it shaking so much? This has never happened before?"
The young deputy checked the spiritual light outside the flying boat and couldn't see what was wrong. He said with some uncertainty, "Zhoushou, maybe the flying boat is tired after shuttling back and forth continuously these days."
You Zhoushou muttered, "It shouldn't be. We just rested once half a year ago. Fortunately, we are almost at the Kui Constellation Star. When we reach the destination, let's rest again."
He placed his hand on Yu Chen and used his experience to constantly send his consciousness to the flying boat to calm it down. However, during the last part of the journey, the flying boat was still trembling incessantly, as if it could fall at any moment. This made him tremble with fear.
Maybe it was because his communication was effective, but there were no accidents along the way, and the flying boat finally landed safely on the Mozhou Rooftop on the surface.
After the boat came to a complete stop, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and slumped back on the seat. He fumbled for a handkerchief to wipe the cold sweat on his head.
Inside the cabin, Zhang Yu saw that they had reached the boundary, so he led Li Qinghe and the others out through the open cabin door to the outer room.
The Mozhou Rooftop was relatively high. He looked around and saw that the place under his feet was a huge coastal settlement city. Under the clear blue sky, magnificent jade platforms and densely packed stone buildings were distributed along the coast.
He noticed that a few of the high platforms were particularly magnificent, and they seemed to contain enormous power.
After looking for a while, he changed his mind. A jade-white light mist floated by, and Bai Guojun appeared beside him. He transmitted a thought to Bai Guojun to observe everything outside at any time, then walked down the stone stairs. Li Qinghe, Qing Shu, Qing Xi, and Miao Danjun all followed behind.
Just below the Mozhou Rooftop, there was a middle-aged man of short height, dressed in a round-necked green robe standing there. When he saw Zhang Yu coming down from above, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly came up to him, bowed, and said, "May I ask if this is Xuanxiu?"
Zhang Yu glanced at this person and understood that this was probably the person Wei Gao had arranged for him to receive him. The latter had said that he could reject this identity, but now that he was not familiar with this place, this was a convenient opportunity for him to blend in. Therefore, he did not deny it and nodded. "It's me."
The middle-aged man's expression relaxed slightly, then he asked tentatively, "Xuanxiu, do you still remember the invitation we sent a year ago?"
Zhang Yu, "Yes, I do."
The middle-aged man could not help but smile, then he cupped his hands and said, "Although it was delayed for a year, Xuanxiu still came. Oh, this is not the place to talk. Xuanxiu, if you don't mind, you can come with me. We have already arranged everything for Xuanxiu."
