1147 A Big Job in Tai’an County

The area of the Wanggu Continent was astonishing. During the ancient sovereign’s era, there were a total of 365 large regions.

However, after experiencing numerous catastrophes, divisions, changes in the Earth’s crust, and the reorganization of races, the current number remained unknown.

According to the analysis of some races, 30% of the large regions in Wanggu should have become dead lands and their native living beings had already become extinct.

As for the five Divine Realms that appeared on the surface of the Wanggu Continent, three of them were in the dead lands.

Even so, those large regions that weren’t dead lands were also places that were difficult for most cultivators to travel past in their entire lives.

Only with the help of super teleportation could a limited number of people cross the regions.

However, such a region-level super teleportation was very difficult to activate due to the standpoint of the races between the various large regions. In fact, there were many large regions that had no way to build such a large array formation for various reasons.

Such super teleportation formations only worked smoothly between the territories of the same race.

Therefore, it was relatively smooth for people of the same race to pass through their own regions. However, if they weren’t of the same race, it would be very difficult to cross the regions.

As for the human race, they had relied on their previous advantage to barely leave behind the ancient path that connected the Holy Wave and the Imperial Capital. Now, they could be considered qualified for this super teleportation.

The next stop in the Holy Wave Large Region was the Ordon Region.

This name had existed since the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether Era and hadn’t changed. In fact, it seemed to have existed even longer, and there were many rumors about its origin.

There was a rumor that was the most widespread.

That was the name of a Heavenly Dao of the Wanggu Continent. When it was alive, it was a cultivator who sacrificed himself to achieve the Dao and protect Wanggu.

Ordon was his name. This large region was his hometown.

However, now, this large region was controlled by three large clans. These three races all thought of themselves as the descendants of Ordon. Each of them had a large number of races attached to them and fought all year round, treating each other as outsiders.

Thus, in this endless war, livelihoods were miserable, and all living things withered away. Various races could only barely survive under these oppressive conditions.

It was also because of this that the human race’s Tai’an County could obtain a temporary respite. However, the price was that they had to pay rent to each of the three large clans.

This was because the three great clans had regional treasures.

This regional treasure had flaws and could only be activated by their bloodline sacrifice. Its authority was also divided into three parts. The three clans each controlled one.

Moreover, its might mainly focused on defense. It could suppress everything in the Ordon Region but it was difficult for them to spread its might to other regions.

However, this was enough.

Regarding the rent, out of respect, the Grand Imperial Capital Region didn’t issue an explicit order. However, all the past county governors of Tai’an County knew that if they wanted Tai’an County to survive here, they naturally had to lower their heads.

However, this phenomenon changed after the human race’s Sun of Dawn erupted.

This time, the human race could lift their heads proudly, and this became obvious in their territories. For example, Tai’an County no longer paid the so-called rent. The three great clans also tacitly agreed to this matter.

At that moment, in the Ningyang province of Tai’an County, the originally pitch-black night sky was instantly illuminated by the resplendent light of the array formation. The world lit up brightly.

The cultivators of Tai’an County became vigilant. All of them had solemn expressions as they stared at the array formation.

They weren’t unfamiliar with Fenghai County, but it couldn’t be said that they were very familiar with it. However, what had happened in Fenghai County had already spread like a storm through Wanggu.

Hence, they were especially concerned about the teleportation from Fenghai County.

Right now, the light was like a sea that kept erupting. Li Yunshan appeared in the array formation with 30,000 Sword Holders.

The moment they were revealed, they each felt varying degrees of discomfort, but most of them restrained themselves very well. Under Li Yunshan’s arrangement, they spread out in all directions and lined up to inspect their surroundings, vigilant of everything.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong, the figures of Zi Xuan, Ning Yan, and the others arrived during the second teleportation. The last figure to appear was Xu Qing.

As soon as he landed, a dry wind blew over.

To Xu Qing, regardless of whether it was the Nanhuang Continent, Fenghai County, or the Holy Wave Large Region, they were all considered coastal regions. Even the Moon Offering was generally cold as a whole.

Therefore, for him, who was accustomed to the humid climate, in this inland Tai’an County, the changes in climate were particularly noticeable.

As for the discomfort brought about by the super teleportation, Xu Qing didn’t experience it. His divine body ignored these.

“Tai’an County.” The captain opened his arms and hugged the void beside Xu Qing.

“What a good name. Little Qing, how about we change the name of the Heavenly Bull Mountain Range to Tai Niu later? I think the word ‘Tai’ is more amazing.”

Looking at the captain’s excited expression, Xu Qing pondered seriously.

“We can give it a try.”

When the captain heard this, a happy smile appeared on his face. Ning Yan, who was at the side, hurriedly nodded and even patted his chest.

“Captain, no problem. If I have greater authority in the future, all the large regions will have the word ‘Niu’!”

The captain’s eyes lit up. He quite liked the thought and pulled Ning Yan to discuss the details.

Xu Qing didn’t participate. He lifted his head and looked at the night sky. The moon in this region was different from the one in the Holy Wave Large Region.

It was very far away and its shape wasn’t circular but triangular, like a heavenly mountain.

Its light had a blue tint, casting a similar hue on the ground.

This was the third moon Xu Qing saw. After staring at it for a moment, he retracted his gaze and looked at the human cultivators from Tai’an County who were paying attention to this place. He could sense the other party’s vigilance.

Li Yunshan had already flown over and was communicating with them.

As for Zi Xuan, after she teleported here, she had been looking at the array formation under everyone’s feet. Her expression was a little strange. She walked to Xu Qing’s side and spoke softly.

“Xu Qing, there’s something wrong with this teleportation array.”

On the moonlit night, in the residual light of the array, Zi Xuan, dressed in a white gown, resembled a fairy. Her skin was fair as snow, and her appearance was exquisite. Her clothes danced in the wind, and her wide sleeves fluttered.

Especially her clear autumn-water eyes and her white jade-like complexion, radiating a faint glow all over her body, made her particularly conspicuous in the crowd.

When Xu Qing heard this, he looked at the array formation under his feet. His shadow spread out under the moonlight and transmitted some emotional fluctuations.

“Big… job…”

A dark glint flashed in Xu Qing’s eyes. Li Yunshan’s figure flew back. After he quickly arrived in front of Xu Qing, his expression was solemn as he spoke in a low voice.

“I’m afraid we’ll have to stay here for a while.”

“Is it related to the array formation here?” Xu Qing asked.

Li Yunshan glanced at Xu Qing and nodded.

“There are some things that we didn’t know about in Fenghai County. It’s a secret that belongs to Tai’an County. This ancient teleportation array is one of them. If we want to activate teleportation here, we need to make some arrangements and preparations. It will take about seven days.”

“However, in three days, something will happen to this array formation. It will only recover after half a month.”

“It… is alive?” Zi Xuan suddenly asked.

Her voice immediately attracted the attention of the captain, Ning Yan, and Wu Jianwu. Kong Xianglong also had a surprised expression as he lowered his head and observed the array formation under his feet.

However, no matter how one looked at it, this array formation was only an array formation.

However, on the captain’s side, there was a glint in his eyes. He even squatted down and touched it with a curious expression.

Li Yunshan also took a deep breath. After he heard about this from Tai’an County earlier, he was equally shocked. At this moment, he spoke in a low voice.

“According to Tai’an County, the ancient teleportation array here experienced the fragmented-face opening Its eyes once a hundred years ago. However, the strange thing is that this place didn’t form a forbidden zone.”contemporary romance

“However, after that time, this ancient teleportation array… gained its own consciousness. To be precise, it came alive.”

“Every half a month, it will change from the state of the array formation and transform into an existence similar to a ferocious beast, playing in the globe of Tai’an County. Wherever it passes, people will be teleported randomly.

However, the range won’t exceed this county. Moreover, this activated array formation has the personality of a child and doesn’t have much malice. Hence, here, people mostly treat it as a weather change.”

“At the same time, it is additionally beneficial. After the ancient array is activated, it will be in a deep sleep for half a month. There will be no need to pay a price for any teleportation, so this county didn’t deal with this matter.”

“Therefore, we might have to wait for half a month before we can teleport.”

After Li Yunshan finished speaking, he looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing fell silent and discussed with Zi Xuan, the captain, and the others as well as Li Yunshan. In the end, he decided to stay here for the moment being and wait for the array formation to be activated before they teleported.

They didn’t go too far away and set up camp 50 kilometers away from the ancient array.

The cultivators from Tai’an County didn’t get close. They maintained a certain distance from Xu Qing and the others and were always on guard.

In reality, it wasn’t simply these Tai’an County cultivators who were on guard here. In the Tai’an County Capital, which was some distance away, they were also extremely vigilant. In fact, it was the same for the various races and forces in the entire Tai’an County.

All the races warned their people not to get close to the Ningyang province during this period of time.

Xu Qing and the others didn’t disturb this county. After setting up camp, Xu Qing closed his eyes and meditated. Most of the others did the same. Only the captain couldn’t sit still. From time to time, he would go out and curiously look at the ancient teleportation array in the distance.

Three days later, late at night, an earth-shattering boom erupted from the ancient teleportation array. Xu Qing opened his eyes and walked out of the tent.

Zi Xuan, Ning Yan, Li Yunshan, Kong Xianglong, and the others additionally walked out one after another and stared at the source.

Gradually, strange expressions appeared on their faces.

The huge teleportation array emitted a dark blue light, and the moon became dimmer at this moment, as though all the moonlight had been absorbed by the ancient array.

Under this light, blue hair grew out of the array formation. More and more of them grew densely. Finally, as rumbling sounds echoed, the ancient array formation… rose from the ground.

The earth trembled more violently, and the sky darkened. The ancient array floated in mid-air, with its flat appearance and swaying hairs, appearing not fierce at all, more similar to a round pancake covered in fur.

As it opened its two large eyes, it actually gave off a cute feeling.

It emitted cheerful sounds as it whizzed towards the distance. The birds in the sky scrambled to disperse, but it was too late. Covered by this furry disc, the flying birds disappeared through teleportation, their destination unknown.

It seemed to be even happier. It swayed again and continued to move further away.

“The globe is vast and there are all kinds of strange things…” Li Yunshan sighed with emotion.

As for Zi Xuan, a hint of recollection appeared in her eyes. She looked at the departing pancake and fell into deep thought.

Xu Qing’s heart was additionally stirred. As he grew, he saw too many mysteries and strange things about the Wanggu Continent. It was different every time.

The Wanggu Continent revealed the tip of the iceberg in front of him.

While everyone was surprised by this scene, solely the captain licked his lips. His eyes were shining and his heart was burning.

‘This thing seems to be a treasure. Since it was seen by me, it’s fated with me!’
