CHAPTER 512: CHAPTER 217: MASTER OF FAR EAST, HUNDRED STRANDS OF HEART LAMP, YIN DEMON_2

When Ji Jingqiu considered the time spent in seclusion this time,

it took him two months to return, and calculating the time since he stepped on the Ancient Road, half a year had passed.

And next, he needs to complete the containment of all spiritual mechanisms and open the final, third layer of Divine Storage; even with the "Floating Cloud Boat" from Creation Land that could speed up the refinement of spiritual mechanisms, it would take at least two months.

Calculating the time, when he comes out of seclusion, it would be almost exactly at the late stage of the first phase of the Ancient Road.

Without unexpected events, within the next two months, Holy Lands within the Far East war zone will open in succession, and then it will be the official entry into the second phase of the Ancient Road, entering the final trial land to challenge the rankings of the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele.

After the exchange was completed, Ji Jingqiu took some Great Medicine beneficial for Body Refinement and some processed extracts from Heavenly Medicine from the treasury of the Sun and Moon Alliance.

Especially the latter, it was an unexpected joy for Ji Jingqiu.

Because when leaving the Ancient Road at the end, Martial Artists who left their names on the Ten Thousand Ancient Stele can choose to take some possessions out of the Ancient Road!

In these months, the influence of the Sun and Moon Alliance expanded and continued to encircle several Taboo powers; the treasury has already transplanted five Heavenly Medicines.

Unless it’s a Heavenly Medicine with profound and mysterious effects like the Arhat Fruit, the potency of most Heavenly Medicines is too domineering, and not directly consumable by someone in the Divine Travel Realm, requiring extraction and processing.

Zi Rixin directly took out all the stored medicine for Ji Jingqiu.

With these, opening the third layer of his Divine Storage would be basically free from accidents.

...

...

Nine States, territory of the Jin Family.

"Only upon arriving in the Nine States did I realize that we had long been in a cage, without freedom,"

Under the lush canopy of trees, Long Qingyang raised his head and sincerely murmured with emotion.

The Ancient Road has been open for more than six months.

Not until recently, the channel from East Three Bright Star to Nine States could officially accommodate the power of the Heavenly Human Rank.

After exchanging Qi with the Federation officials, Long Qingyang personally stepped into this channel, representing the Federation, and officially exchanged with representatives from the Nine Palaces.

Initially, the Great Red Sky Palace side was supposed to be handled by Qian Chong, but Master Lu Tong insisted on intervening, claiming that although the other party was not a direct descendent of Senior He, it was still part of Ji Jingqiu’s mentor’s lineage, and it would be disrespectful for Qian Chong, a junior, to represent.

Currently, the two parties have accomplished their first official meeting, exchanging gifts to show mutual respect and friendship.

The gift from Great Red Sky Palace astonishingly included three Heavenly Medicines, the grandeur of which left Long Qingyang astounded.

Fortunately, the gifts this time were officially from the government. Otherwise, even with the Dragon Tiger Dojo’s profound resources, they would have had to exhaust their wealth in one go.

At this moment,

Long Qingyang stood with his hands behind his back amidst Heaven and Earth, his Power of the Spirit continuously extending, merging with the entire Heaven and Earth. His Inner Heaven and Earth communicated with the outside world constantly, every movement could summon the might of Heaven, and with a mere thought, he could call down rolling thunder.

Being at the peak of Heavenly Person, just a half step away from Grandmaster, and able to reach this state in the Great Universe—yet it wasn’t nearly as effortless as it was right now, so casual and easy.

The constraints of Heaven and Earth on them seemed to no longer exist in the Nine States.

It was truly an unbounded Heaven and Earth.

He could even use the Power of the Spirit at any time to connect with certain dimensional planes, borrowing the power of an entire realm for his own use.

Moreover, what surprised him most was the distancing of the Heavenly Person Five Decays.

He was over a thousand years old this year. If Heavenly Human Martial Artists do not take measures to extend their lives, this age is already close to the normal lifespan limit of Heavenly Persons in the Great Universe.

But after stepping into Nine States, he faintly felt the Heavenly Person Five Decays distance themselves completely at this moment!

This means that in the rules of the Heaven and Earth system of Nine States, the lifespan of Heavenly Human Martial Artists far exceeds a thousand years!

[Heavenly Persons, no matter which realm, can be called ’Demigods’, their lifespans naturally extend far beyond a thousand years; it’s just that the Great Universe rules suppress too harshly. Many powers chose to flee to Nine States back then, also taking this into account, after all, the real high-ranking ones are the strong ones above Heavenly People.]

The ancient tree behind Long Qingyang gently swayed, answering his doubts.

Long Qingyang turned, respecting the hierarchy, he solemnly bowed to Senior He’s companion.

According to seniority, this was someone from the generation of their Dragon Tiger Dojo’s Ancestor Master.

"Senior Mu, if you are willing, the Federation will bring you back to the Great Universe with the methods of Divine," Long Qingyang said in a deep voice.

For this half a year, the Dragon Tiger Dojo and the Federation continuously sent Martial Artists through this channel, with much care from Senior Mu.

Although her real identity is not of the Federation’s humans, her identity is special, having guarded this place for ten thousand years, the Federation ought to treat her with respect. They have already sought the opinion of the Four Directions God, and can open a Divine Position for her once again.

[No rush in these matters, I’ve already talked with Zhuang. ]

Long Qingyang understood, the "Zhuang" referred to was Zhuang Butong.

The Four Directions God has already established a branch of the Divine Temple on East Three Bright Star, with the new Divine Chosen, Zhuang Butong, assuming the role of Great Priest of the branch temple.

In this half year, as news of the channel in East Three Bright Star spread, especially after rumors linked it to Senior He, various powers clamored to get into East Three Bright Star.

Planting agents, supporting forces, establishing branches...

Even though East Three Bright Star was already claimed by Ji Jingqiu and monitored by the Dragon Tiger Dojo, it was still impenetrable.

Before long, Lu Tong came to visit Long Qingyang in a personal capacity.

Lu Tong appeared young like a youth, but his real age was far greater than Long Qingyang’s.

Seeing that Long Qingyang was just a step away from Grandmaster, he actively proposed a martial exchange, addressing each other as old brothers.
