Chapter 777: I’m Going On A Trip On My Favorite Rocket Ship
After Shang Xia entered the Martial Dipper Realm, he discovered the scheme thought out by the 3 Elysiums of the past.
Of course, the 3 Elysiums had now become the 4 Elysiums. However, Shang Xia had no idea if the existence in the Sixth Order of the Primary Realm of the Yuanchen Sect knew the reason behind their actions.
The Three Unity Island was somewhere the cultivators of the Azure Ascension World could deal freely and secretly. Naturally, the various factions that could take part in it would benefit greatly. However, the busiest time was actually before the descent of the Three Unity Pagoda.
Other than cultivators who entered the Three Unity Island through many different methods, it was a time for the various powers to show off their foundations and strength.
In the past, the Tongyou Institution had never attracted too much attention to themselves. In fact, one could say that they were pretty unremarkable.
The Auspicious Cloud Cape would allow them to bring 10 or so cultivators to the island, and they were only able to do that because Shang Xia gave them the treasure back then. It went through some improvements in order to carry a little more people, but that was it. If it hadn’t, the cape would only be able to ferry 5 experts whose cultivation had to be in the Martial Extermination Realm or above!
Anyone who could attend the trade fair wasn’t too surprised by the Tongyou Institution’s lack of abilities. After all, they had barely established their Holy Land. There were even some factions who mocked the Tongyou Institution for being ‘rich upstarts of the cultivation world’.
Actually, those people weren’t exactly thinking straight. Even the newest Elysium could only ferry a hundred or so people to the island with their rank five Cloud Roc. They surprised everyone with their achievement in the first year the roc appeared. The Xiangyang Elysium thus solidified its position as the Cloud Roc could return to the Azure Ascension World quickly and complete another trip. They could send close to 200 ordinary cultivators to the Three Unity Island.
The other factions were racking their brains to come up with a way to send their low-leveled cultivators to the island. They came up with many methods, but no matter how hard they tried, they would only be able to carry 5 to 10 cultivators.
Several factions with deeper foundations would be able to reach close to 100 cultivators, but none of them could actually cross the 100 mark.
Also, it wasn’t as though all the factions would only start bringing their disciples over a day before the trade fair started. They could start anytime they liked.
Like the Tongyou Institution that could only send 10 members with the Auspicious Cloud Cape. When the fair approached, they would take multiple trips over and send dozens of low-leveled cultivators to the island.
Of course, they had to do it multiple times and couldn’t match up to the larger factions out there.
However, things were about to change. Under the gaze of everyone on the island, a moving island that left behind a trail of resplendent light quickly approached the Three Unity Island. It quickly became the center of attention.
The light trail following them was tens of miles long. The tiny island was covered in an eye-catching five colored light as it arrived. When everyone discovered that the moving island belonged to the Tongyou Institution, a large commotion broke out.
...
When the trade fair was about to happen, several Martial Dipper Realm experts gathered close to the Three Unity Island according to their agreement. They were the group of experts who would be patrolling the Azure Ascension World.
“If I dare ask, is this really Brother Pang Jingyun of the Yuanchen Sect?” A ray of light stopped abruptly as a young man who was bursting with excitement asked.
“Hehe... I noticed the Pine Sled of your Changbai Sect arriving on the Three Unity Island earlier. Looks like Brother Shen also arrived. Greetings!” A person shorter than Shen Baisong, clad in cloud-embroidered robes revealed himself. He cupped his fists at Shen Baisong who was approaching.
“Brother Pang, did you come along with the Cloud Roc? It’s a pity I came a little too late and failed to see what it looks like.” Shen Baisong revealed a look of regret. It didn’t matter which world they referred to. It was difficult to see a rank five spiritual beast in the Azure Ascension World.
Pang Jingyun laughed in response, “The Cloud Roc will have to take another trip to the Jing Continent. It will definitely return. With its speed, it shouldn’t take long.”
Shen Baisong sighed again, “An Elysium truly possesses strong foundations. When I arrived earlier, I heard that your Cloud Roc could carry 120 people!”
“That’s nothing to marvel at. Back then, the Cloud Roc just advanced and could ferry 80 or so people. A spiritual beast boasts an incredible lifespan and it will only grow stronger. The number of people it can bring will naturally increase.” Pang Jingyun smiled.
In a helpless voice, Shen Baisong could only mumble softly, “Our Pine Sled is far from comparable. We can bring 50 or so cultivators, and it moves extremely slowly. If not for my help in secret, they wouldn’t have been able to bring another 10 disciples. We can barely transport half the number of cultivators of your Cloud Roc!”
A voice interrupted them right after Shen Baisong had spoken. “Close to 70 disciples... You can be considered above average among all the factions. The Star Cloud Board of my Heavenly Star Palace can barely bring 50 people over.”
Shen Baisong broke out into laughter the next second. “Oh? Junior Sister Yi, you’re here. The speed of the Star Cloud Board is really fast. It’s no wonder you can’t bring as many people.”
Yi Jingzi stepped out from the void and nodded slightly at Pang Jingyun before she continued, “3 of us have already arrived. Do you guys know who the other 2 are?”
Shen Baisong laughed and looked at Pang Jingyun. “Brother Pang, I believe you already know!”
Instead of telling them, Pang Jingyun decided to build the suspense a little. “Both of you are really familiar with the others. Why don’t we wait a little?”
Shen Baisong and Yi Jingzi were slightly taken aback as they revealed curious looks. Silence quickly filled the space around them.
A sharp divine will arrived from not too far away and alerted the 3 of them.
Pang Jingyun revealed a look of surprise, but he chuckled in response soon after. “Lady Xinlan, you came really quickly.”
A heroic looking lady appeared not too far away as a trace of shock flashed through her eyes as she stared at the others. “What are you talking about? Didn’t you 3 arrive before me? Heh, actually, I came alone and my trip was a lot more convenient. From the looks of it, you 3 seemed to have assisted in transporting your disciples over to the Three Unity Island, right?”
They nodded slightly and Shen Baisong broke the silence with a laugh. “Looks like Lady Xinlan has arrived. Now, I feel like I am able to guess the identity of our final member.”
Yi Jingzi turned to look at Pang Jingyun.
As the Azure Ascension World organized teams of Martial Dipper Realm experts to patrol the world and intercept any foreign expert, they obviously had to assign a leader for each team. The 4 Elysiums would naturally have to send out their Martial Dipper Realm experts to take charge of matters.
There were 4 teams in total, and the Martial Dipper Realm experts who made up those teams would swap from time to time. They came from many different factions, with the exception of those from the 4 Elysiums.
Not only did they serve as a model for others by sending out their experts, but they were also displaying their foundations for all to see. Even the Yuanchen Sect which had only promoted to an Elysium not too long ago did the same.
Pang Jingyun was the leader of their squad, and he clearly knew who would be coming. However, everyone else seemed to have already guessed the identity of the last person.
Pang Jingyun smiles, “It’s a shame I didn’t attend the great war 4 years ago. I heard that anyone who managed to survive experienced an increase in strength. I heard about some matters there, and I used some connections to pull all of you together.”
An awkward smile appeared on his face as he continued, “Because Yu Yu had to shift her sect, she wasn’t able to join us this time. In order not to drag out matters, I had to get Lady Xinlan to take her place.”
Shen Baisong glanced at Yi Jingzi and they exchanged a glance. When Gong Xinlan arrived earlier, Pang Jingyun didn’t seem too familiar with her from the way he addressed her. Moreover, Gong Xinlan was pretty friendly with Yu Yu and his explanation made sense.
Be it Shen Baisong, Yi Jingzi, or Gong Xinlan, all of them were part of the same squad in the past. They knew that the true core of their battle formation was Shang Xia! He was definitely the last person!
Shen Baisong chuckled under his breath. “Looks like Brother Shang is the last to arrive.”
Gong Xinlan immediately followed up, “He will probably have to bring the members of the Tongyou Institution over to the Three Unity Island. I heard that they’ve always been using a piece of rainbow cloud to ferry their members over. They can’t bring too many either. He should be late because he had to bring as many people over as possible...”
“No matter what, the Tongyou Institution has only established their Holy Land for a few years. Their entire history stretches back 30 or so years at most and it’s not that easy to build one’s foundations.” Shen Baisong laughed. He seemed to be helping Shang Xia to explain his tardiness.
Yi Jingzi added, “The Tongyou Institution grew too rapidly. Other than Kou Chongxue, the crazy anomaly, their other Martial Dipper Realm experts seem to be carried by him all the way. Of course their foundations wouldn’t be as solid...”
Her view perfectly corresponded with what many experts of the Azure Ascension World were feeling about the Tongyou Institution.
“Lady Yi, you’re not exactly wrong. However, Shang Xia’s cultivation method seems different from the other Deputy Patriarchs...” Pang Jingyun muttered.
“Wait! Take a look at that!” Gong Xinlan interrupted their conversation all of a sudden.
She didn’t even need to point out what she was referring to. A giant ball of light seemed to be moving extremely quickly through space towards the Three Unity Island while leaving behind a giant light trail.
“This... This seems to be a transport tool used to ferry cultivators to the Three Unity Island!”
All of them identified the use of that glowing ball but the next moment, the same question appeared in their minds.
Which faction does that belong to?!
