The Yu Ding Realm is vast, and while it does not extend tens of thousands of miles like the Medicine King Realm, it possesses a grandeur characteristic of a vast territory.

With such a colossal area, it’s impossible that the entire region would be completely dominated by the Yu Ding Sword Sect.

They are merely the nominal dominant power of the realm.

Within the realm, the Yu Ding Sword Sect is leading the way with six other Golden Core Sects, collectively known as the Seven Sects of Yu Ding.

Beneath them, there are quite a number of smaller sects.

Aside from that, it’s primarily the Immortal Cities, and marketplaces that are the primary gathering points for rogue cultivators.

The larger Immortal Cities, with possession of high order spirit lands, have strength not inferior to that of a typical Golden Core Sect.

As for the marketplaces, it’s somewhat peculiar.

Throughout the whole Yu Ding Realm, there are over a thousand large

marketplaces.

Small marketplaces are even more plentiful, just like fish in a river, too many to count.

Any place rich in spirit or important path, there will always be cultivators who step up and organize large and small marketplaces.

Some well-developed marketplaces gradually attract the attention of the sects, and eventually will have sect enterprises settled in.

The Great River District, out of these countless marketplaces, is one of the very

few exceptions.

Its prosperity is not due to people, but because of its location.

Facing the undeveloped Million Mountains of the Eastern Wasteland, it poses a strategic position.

With its rich resources, it gradually accumulated popularity.

In contrast, the other nearby marketplaces, apart from the Xuelian District that also has a strategic position, the rest are ordinary marketplaces.

In terms of distance, they are quite far from the Great River District.

Even the second closest, the Taishan District, is as much as eight thousand miles away across the wasteland.

Eight thousand miles, it sounds very far.

But for a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it’s nothing more than a day or

two of full-speed flight.

The reason why nobody normally traverses these two places by foot…

Is mainly because there is a large tract of wasteland in the middle.

Such as the towering Nan Wa Snow Mountain and Ninefold Mountain, amongst others.

The mountains are filled with numerous demon beasts. There are even third- rank demon beasts roaming free. Even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator would have to be cautious.

For Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivators, let alone ordinary people…

This eight thousand miles is quite a long distance.

Generally, rogue cultivators initially coming to the Great River District either follow a caravan or rely on the ships of the Great Lake Gang.

The few who fortunately trek on foot are only a minority.

Now, with the four forces moving their households, they naturally can’t move

fast.

They only covered one third of the journey in the previous three days. And this middle stretch of the journey, being far from both sides, and being unfit to travel at night, will actually reduce their speed even further.

But no matter how long the distance, it’s always being shortened.

Just like even if the ocean is far away, the wild river is always bringing you closer to the day it will meet the sea.

On the fifth day.

Standing on the deck, Luo Chen faces the gentle breeze.

The splashes of the waves crash against his face along with the wind, invigorating his senses.

“How much longer is it to Taishan District?

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Qin Liangchen, standing next to him, chuckled, “We’re almost there! Once we pass this calm river section, we only have to go downstream, so maybe one or two days!”

So soon?

Luo Chen thought it would take a long time.

But considering how, when the Dao Debate Platform opened, scattered cultivators from so many nearby marketplaces gathered…

It is evident that for cultivators the distance really is not far.

The reason for their slow pace is still that the number of people traveling is simply too large.

Such a large group moving together will inevitably bring many unnecessary troubles.

“Didn’t it take you a long time when you sent Xiao Hu to Luo Yun Sect?” Mentioning his son, a soft smile appeared on Qin Liangchen’s face. He reminisced, “It indeed took a long time, almost half a year I think!

“Then on the way, you’ve probably passed through quite a few places, right?” “That’s correct. The first stop was Taishan District, then Yue Lang District, and along the way we tried to avoid the territories occupied by the Immortal Cultivation Clans as much as possible. We had to take detours… In the end, we stayed in Thousand Leaves City for nearly half a month, waiting for Luo Yun Sect’s recruitment.”

Luo Chen curiously asked, “The Thousand Leaves City? I remember it as an Immortal City too, isn’t it?”

“Correct- It’s ranked seventh among the top ten Immortal Cities of the Yu Ding Realm. There’s a surplus of cultivators at the Qi Refinement stage, plenty at the Foundation Establishment stage, and even the occasional Golden Core Ascendant Masters.”

From Qin Liangchen’s description, it’s like the true Immortal Cultivation World is in Thousand Leaves Immortal City.

A remote place like the Great River District is merely a mundane town, in such a place, as long as one has enough wealth, there are no worries about cultivation resources.

Unlike the Great River District, even when there are Spirit Stones available, the necessary items cannot be bought.

Moreover, with a high order spirit vein within it, it naturally attracts a large number of rogue cultivators to settle.

Over time, this would also give birth to various power organizations. Surrounding a super Immortal City, the Immortal Cultivation Clans both large and small could be counted in dozens or even hundreds.

“If you think about it, an environment like this is actually more suitable for the development of our Luo Tian Creed,” commented Qin Liangchen and then shook his head.

“Unfortunately, Thousand Leaves Immortal City is too far away from us. Plus it’s very close to the Luo Yun Sect and its current location is in a war-torn area.”

Luo Chen mused.

He asked with a hint, “What about the Tian Lan Immortal City?

Qin Liangchen faltered, then instinctively responded, “That is indeed closer. If we don’t consider taking detours, it’s only one or two months from Liuguang

District.”

“How’s the situation there?”

Seeing Luo Chen, Qin Liangchen had a thought.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

He doesn’t mean to move the Luo Tian Creed to Tian Lan Immortal City, does he?

Aloud, he answered Luo Chen’s curiosity based on his own observations. “Tian Lan Immortal City is different from the Thousand Leaves Immortal City. The latter is primarily constructed by the Luo Yun Sect and three other sects. But Tian Lan Immortal City is jointly funded by the Seven Sects of Yu Ding. Its geographical position is also not in the overlapping territories of the sects. Now…”
