Gu Yue stretched out the list in her hand with some disbelief. The more she looked at it, the more surprised she became. She hadn't noticed it just now, but when she looked at the lists from previous years, she saw that the names of the Eastern Sui Kingdom were followed by the big names.
There are hundreds of them, almost ten times more than in other countries.
"Isn't this too exaggerated?!" Everyone can see that there is something wrong with this list. Even if Dongsui is a geomantic treasure land, it is impossible for hundreds of earthly immortals to ascend in a year, right? Besides, if this ascension is not an ascension, who cares?
It's all the monks themselves, it has nothing to do with the location of the upper world. Could it be that that formation can really snatch the ascended immortals to the Eastern Sui Dynasty?
Gu Yue couldn't help but take a closer look at the list in her hand, paying special attention to the situation in other countries, and found that there was no significant reduction trend. So what's going on?
"Yu Hong, how much do you know about Dong Sui?" He turned to look at the person next to him.
Yu Hong thought for a while and then said, "This disciple also knows very little about the situation of the countries in Shuhai. I just heard that the Eastern Sui Dynasty is located in the far east, and there are some scattered small islands in it. A few years ago, some people settled here
There are still very few immortals, but later after Emperor Yu Cangdeng became the king, these small islands united and built many immortal cities. They are getting better and better, and now their strength is not inferior to other countries."
"In recent years?" Gu Yue frowned, "You mean the Eastern Sui Dynasty developed recently." It seems that it is really related to that formation.
"Yes!" Yu Hong nodded, "When the disciples of the sect do business, uh... no, when they complete the sect's tasks, they often go to various fairy cities in the Eastern Sui Dynasty. The prosperity there is no less than that of other countries.
.”
Gu Yue frowned. The more she listened, the more she felt there was something wrong. After thinking about it, she turned to look at Yi Qing and said, "It seems that I really need to see it with my own eyes. Chef, you should recognize that formation. Come with me to the fairy city to confirm it."
.”
"But... I still have to practice." Yi Qing frowned, a little dissatisfied.
"Are you doing cultivation? Are you doing demolition? Let's do business first!" He then turned to look at Yu Hong, "Yu Hong, we have to leave for a while and our return date is uncertain, so I will leave it to you.
"
"yes."
"Let's go." Gu Yue directly opened the space channel and was about to step in.
Shen Ying immediately waved her hand, "Dad Niu, come on."
Gu Yue paused in her steps, turned around and shouted at the superior, "You go too!"
"Huh?" Shen Ying lowered her paws immediately, "It's so troublesome."
"Shut up!"
After saying that, he turned around, picked up a group of lazy guys, and pushed them into the passage. He also pushed the cook next to him who was full of demolition ideas.
In an instant, several people appeared on a small island, and saw a fairy city floating in the sky from a distance.
"Cook, can you sense that formation?" Gu Yue asked.
"There are many formations in this fairy city, especially the defensive formations outside the city. It is difficult to tell which is the Xuanling formation outside." The cook shook his head, his eyes flashed, "Why don't you split it open and take a look?" It was just a practice.
sword.
"Get out!" Gu Yue twitched the corner of her mouth, you prodigal son.
"Yu Cang didn't tell the truth. I think he was hiding something on purpose. While he is still on his way back, let's go in first and inquire about the situation." It takes ten days to travel from the Invincible Heavenly Palace to the Eastern Sui Dynasty, even if you use a sword, they directly cut through it.
Those who came from the void naturally rushed ahead of Yucang. After thinking about it, he made another trick and suppressed his cultivation to the level of Jinxian.
Then he turned to look at the two people behind him and confessed, "Chef, please suppress your cultivation, hide your true appearance, and don't let anyone recognize you." After all, he is the emperor of Shuhai, and there will be images of the emperor all over Shuhai, "Also Shen Ying, forget it!" No one else can see it anyway.
Shen Ying: "..." MMP!
Several people prepared for a while, and then Yujian flew towards the fairy city above.
Yu Hong was right, the fairy city in the Eastern Sui Dynasty was indeed very lively. They entered only a small city on the north side of the Eastern Sui Dynasty, but the city was full of monks, no worse than those big fairy cities in the past.
Gu Yue took a casual glance and found that most of the city's monks were low-level monks, among whom Earth Immortals were the most numerous. There were very few Xuan Immortals and Mo Immortals, and one or two could not be found in several streets, let alone high immortals. .
As soon as Yi Qing entered the city, he sensed the location of the Xuanling Array. He tightened his grip on Shen Ying and led Niu Daddy in that direction. The strange thing was that the Xuanling Array was not hidden, but rather The thorny cloth was placed in an open space in the east of the city, and no one was guarding it. The immortals in the city seemed to know what it was and didn't care at all.
Gu Yue was stunned for a moment, Yu Cang was so blatantly robbing people, wouldn't he be afraid of other countries' opinions? But after thinking about it carefully, he understood. If this formation can really only change the position of people in the lower world ascension, other countries may also I really don’t care too much. After all, those who have just ascended are all earthly immortals. Even if they have potential, it will be thousands of years later.
So what does Yu Cang waste his efforts to create such a formation in every fairy city? Is it really just to facilitate the search for relatives?
"How's it going, cook?" Gu Yue looked at the cook who was studying the formation carefully.
Yiqing then withdrew his divine power to detect the formation, frowned and said, "There is no problem with the formation, there is no abnormality in the realm gate, and there is still residual spiritual energy here. If I am not wrong, this formation will be within three months." , and it was activated once.”
"What?" Gu Yue was surprised, "Didn't it mean that no one from the Eastern Sui Dynasty has ascended for five years?"
"I don't know either." Yi Qing shook his head, "But recently someone did ascend through this formation."
Gu Yue was silent for a while, thought for a while and then said, "Let's go to other fairy cities to see."
So, they visited more than a dozen fairy cities in a row, and found that the formations in each fairy city were the same, without any trace of damage, and there were spiritual energy residues near two of the formations, which meant that someone had ascended.
Why did Yu Cang tell such a lie that could be exposed at a glance? He also deliberately hid the fact that someone ascended, and even Yu Hong didn't find out. Is it just to make them believe that there was something wrong with the Realm Gate?
"Can we eat now?" Shen Ying, who had been dragged around for a long time, couldn't help but said, "It's dinner time in two hours. Father Niu, why don't we go to the city where the grandson lost his grandson for dinner? ?" There must be a lot of delicious food.
"Eat you..." Gu Yue wanted to retaliate out of habit, but was stunned for a moment. Wait, lost her grandson? He looked at Yi Qing next to him and spoke in unison.
"Evergreen City!"*2
Yu Cang did specifically mention before that the nephew of the lord of Changqing City, the first immortal city in the Eastern Sui Dynasty, failed to ascend, and he specifically wanted to ask the cook to investigate. Could it be that the formation of Changqing City was the only one that went wrong?
The two exchanged a look and immediately headed towards Evergreen City. Unlike other fairy cities, the Xuanling Array in Evergreen City was not as obvious as in other fairy cities, but was placed in the palace of the city lord.
Several people directly concealed themselves and sneaked in, and it took a lot of effort to find the formation.
Just as he was about to get closer and take a closer look, Yi Qing suddenly paused and looked at the formation in front of him with some surprise.
"What's wrong?" Gu Yue also paused.
"This formation..." His face darkened, "There is actually death energy attached to it."
He waved his hand, and several strands of immortal energy gathered together. Sure enough, he saw only a few wisps of faint black energy floating above the magic circle, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Holy shit!" Gu Yue was also stunned. The magic circle was attached with death energy, wouldn't it become a killing array?
Yiqing stepped forward directly and placed one hand on the formation, sending a trace of divine power over, but it was bounced back within a moment. He even had a very domineering aura, but it dissipated the moment it touched the palm of his hand.
.
"The gate here is indeed closed." He then stood up, frowned and changed his words, "No, it should be said... locked."
