Chapter 680: Sun Moon Realm

It took almost half an hour from seeing the land to getting close to Thousand Geese City.

When the fleet was about a dozen miles away from Thousand Geese City, it stopped. Qu Qingsheng led some elders in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm to fly towards Thousand Geese City.

Three days later, the Primordial Sword Sect settled outside a mountain range two hundred miles away from Thousand Geese City.

This mountain range, named Thousand Geese Mountain, spanned nearly ten thousand miles, and many sects and forces regarded it as their gateway.

The Primordial Sword Sect then had twelve experts in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, with peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators like Chen Fei, making Thousand Geese City relatively courteous to them.

Although Thousand Geese City was still quite a distance from the center of the Boundless Sea, which was the mainland of Middle Continent, it was considered a corner of Middle Continent after all.

Compared to the Thousand Feathers Alliance, Thousand Geese City was already bustling, naturally having strong experts in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, four of them to be exact.

In the surrounding forces of Thousand Geese City, the status of a peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator was equivalent to that of Tiandao Sect and other forces previously in the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

According to Chen Feis understanding, among the forces with peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators in the Thousand Geese Mountain Range, there were even more than in the Thousand Feathers Alliance, totaling more than a dozen.

Some of these forces even had experts in the Mountain Sea Realm back in the day.

However, with the pa.s.sage of time, hundreds of years have pa.s.sed, and although these forces have not completely declined, the Mountain Sea Realm has completely ceased to exist, never appearing again.

But because experts in the Mountain Sea Realm existed back then, compared to other sects with peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators, these few were slightly more powerful.

Some of these sects even possessed spiritual treasures that suppressed their own luck.

Of course, these spiritual treasures were already damaged and had completely fallen out of the category of true spiritual treasures. However, compared to some top-grade magic treasures, their power was still somewhat stronger.

Near Thousand Geese City, there were quite a few secret realms, with the majority under the control of Thousand Geese City, but some falling into the hands of the sects in the Thousand Geese Mountain Range.

Naturally, the forces near Thousand Geese City were divided into different levels based on their strength.

The Mountain Sea Realm undoubtedly held the top position. Next were those sects with damaged spiritual treasures. They possessed many high-quality secret realms, most of which were third-grade superior secret realms.

Then came the ordinary peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm forces, which naturally also had secret realms. They usually had one third-grade superior secret realm, along with several third-grade intermediate secret realms.

The Primordial Sword Sect, although positioned prominently, arrived as newcomers without a single secret realm to their name.

The absence of secret realms posed a significant problem for the sects future development, as various spiritual materials necessary for the sects growth were scarce. Moreover, all the nearby secret realms around Thousand Geese City were already claimed, making it challenging to acquire one.

What remained were the forces and sects in the later stages of the Combined Aperture Tempering realm. Due to their long-standing development, they possessed an abundance of secret realms, although the quality might only reach third-grade intermediate, which was still considered excellent.

Compared to the Thousand Feathers Alliance, it seemed that the various powers in Thousand Geese City controlled fewer secret realms.

For instance, the ten forces like the Tiandao Sect that originally controlled larger sea areas and more resources, had fewer actual strong individuals compared to Thousand Geese City.

This was because Thousand Geese City was closer to the mainland of Middle Continent, where the natural energy was not only denser but also exhibited more distinct spiritual qualities.

Because of the difference in natural energy, Thousand Geese City could produce some rare spiritual materials that the Thousand Feathers Alliance could not compete with.

This was also why compet.i.tion here was noticeably fiercer, yet none of the sects and powers considered relocating to places like the Thousand Feathers Alliance.

Although it couldnt be said that being in remote areas like the Thousand Feathers Alliance completely eliminated the possibility of breaking through to the Mountain Sea Realm, it certainly lowered the chances.

Warriors, ultimately, aspire to continuously enhance their strength, especially those sects that once reached the Mountain Sea Realm.

In the Thousand Geese Mountain Range, the Primordial Sword Sect discreetly selected several peaks as their mountain gates and settled down.

In less than ten days, the mountain gates began to take shape.

With many craftsmen within Thousand Geese City and a large number of disciples from the Primordial Sword Sect, carving out mountains and building houses was not a difficult task for warriors.

On the twentieth day of their arrival in Thousand Geese City, the formation at the mountain gates of the Primordial Sword Sect was activated. The natural energy of heaven and earth formed a roaring tiger-like momentum in the sky, spreading out in all directions.

Many other sects came to observe the ceremony, sending elders in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, and even people from Thousand Geese City attended.

Everyone was there out of respect for Chen Feis peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivation, but beyond that, their interactions remained formal.

Over the years, the distribution of power and allocation of interests in the Thousand Geese Mountain Range had become completely fixed, even for talented new disciples.

The location chosen by the Primordial Sword Sect for their mountain gates was disregarded by other sects because there were hardly any decent resource points nearby.

Any respectable resource points in the vicinity had already been claimed by other forces.

The simplest and most convenient way for the Primordial Sword Sect to acquire resources would be to occupy several secret realms. However, the forces in the Thousand Geese Mountain Range annually pay tributes to Thousand Geese City.

Attempting to forcibly seize secret realms from other sects could easily lead to retaliation from Thousand Geese City if not handled properly.

Many sects had been stationed here for hundreds, even thousands of years, and their relations.h.i.+ps with Thousand Geese City were already intricate. Acting rashly could easily lead to problems.

Without a steady supply of spiritual materials from secret realms, it would be challenging for the Primordial Sword Sect to sustain its vast size solely through other means of resource acquisition.

Even the annual tributes amounted to a significant expense.

Above the mountains and seas, one can observe the sun and moon!

In the Tingfeng Pavilion, Chen Fei pondered as he looked at the jade slip in his hand.

This jade slip was sent by Thousand Geese City as a gift to the Primordial Sword Sect. Besides providing an overview of the various forces in the Thousand Geese Mountain Range, it briefly mentioned the situation across the entire Middle Continent.

Even in the vast Middle Continent, individuals in the Sun Moon Realm were rare, existing only in a few legendary places like the major sacred sites.

And as for the powerful demonic beasts slightly surpa.s.sing them in strength, naturally, there were also such fifth-tier Monster Kings.

The Sun Moon Realm!

Chen Fei set down the jade slip. The Sun Moon Realm was still somewhat distant for him. What lay before Chen Fei now was the breakthrough to the Mountain Sea Realm.

The techniques of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant Soul Tempering, as Mountain Sea Realm techniques, did not enhance ones strength rapidly. Chen Fei had spent several years initially advancing his Profound Heavenly Sword, let alone the Suppressing Dragon Elephant Soul Tempering techniques.

Chen Fei wasnt particularly anxious about it. What he truly desired now was to obtain a genuine Mountain Sea Realm technique.

Currently, his understanding of the Mountain Sea Realm was still limited, and he harbored many doubts. If he had a Mountain Sea Realm technique, even if it was ordinary, Chen Fei could gain a clearer understanding.

The Heavenly Heart Sect!

A sect name flashed through Chen Feis mind, one of the few sects in the Thousand Geese Mountain Range that had produced Mountain Sea Realm cultivators.

Compared to the others, perhaps due to a sense of confidence stemming from their profound heritage and a hint of humility in their nature, the Heavenly Heart Sect seemed more peaceful. Maybe it had something to do with their Mountain Sea Realm cultivator, which was said to have existed a thousand years ago.

Today, the Heavenly Heart Sect maintained a smooth facade, boasting the largest number of disciples among the sects, but their strength was only considered average.

If any sect were willing to share a Mountain Sea Realm technique, it would probably be the Heavenly Heart Sect, as long as the reward was sufficient.

Three days later, Chen Fei appeared at the gate of the Heavenly Heart Sect.

Before his arrival, the Primordial Sword Sect had already sent a formal invitation, so as soon as Chen Fei arrived, he was welcomed into the sect.

The gate of the Heavenly Heart Sect was grand, but upon closer inspection, many facilities appeared aged, clearly constructed many years ago.

Walking up the stairs, Chen Fei looked around.

Underneath the stairs were traces of formations, but they had not been maintained and had dissipated over time.

After a while, Chen Fei reached the main peak, where the main hall was imposing. Standing in front of the hall and gazing into the distance, he could even vaguely see Thousand Geese City.

Compared to the Primordial Sword Sect in its infancy, the Heavenly Heart Sect indeed had much deeper heritage, but it was also evident that they had declined significantly compared to the past.

Currently, the Heavenly Heart Sect only had one peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivator named Situ Song, who came from the lineage of the past Mountain Sea Realm expert of the Heavenly Heart Sect.

As a newcomer to Thousand Geese City, Ive heard of the ill.u.s.trious history of your sect, and I deeply admire Master Heavenly Heart! After exchanging pleasantries for a moment, Chen Fei directly stated the purpose of his visit.

Situ Song glanced at Chen Fei, his smile unwavering.

Situ Song had spent some time researching this sect that had suddenly arrived in Thousand Geese City.

Because the time was short, the information obtained was limited. All Situ Song knew was that the Primordial Sword Sect had migrated from elsewhere due to disturbances caused by demonic beasts.

In recent years, due to the presence of demonic beasts, many sects and forces had come to Thousand Geese City, some even with Mountain Sea Realm experts among them.

However, these forces did not stay long in Thousand Geese City; instead, they continued to journey deeper into the mainland of Middle Continent.

Therefore, the Primordial Sword Sect was arguably the strongest external force to have remained in Thousand Geese City in recent years.

Situ Song didnt know Chen Feis true age, but he could sense that vibrant vitality, indicating that there was still a considerable amount of time before Chen Fei reached his lifespan limit.

For someone like Chen Fei to visit the Heavenly Heart Sect, the purpose was quite easy to guessit must be for the Mountain Sea Realm technique.

Indeed, for the current Heavenly Heart Sect, that was the only thing capable of stirring the hearts of peak Combined Aperture Tempering realm cultivators.

In theory, sect inheritances would never be shared with outsiders, especially Mountain Sea Realm techniques.

However, as times changed, the Heavenly Heart Sect had not produced a Mountain Sea Realm expert for too long. For them, this Mountain Sea Realm technique held more symbolic significance than practical value.

The Heavenly Heart Technique had been gathering dust for nearly a thousand years.

I understand your purpose, Situ Song said, lifting a teacup and taking a sip before looking at Chen Fei. But I wonder, what can you offer in return? Seeing that Situ Song didnt immediately refuse him, Chen Fei couldnt help but smile. With a wave of his right hand, a blade appeared on the table.

In an instant, a sharp sword intent soared into the sky, causing the surrounding natural energy to surge..
