Meow ~
The white cat called out and looked at Lin Jiufeng.
Lin Jiufeng reached out and carried her down, caressing her gently.
The white cat instantly fell silent.
“Your cat is very beautiful.” The martial artist praised.
“Yes.” Lin Jiufeng smiled gently. He agreed that the white cat was truly beautiful.
In the eyes of humans, the white cat was absolutely unique.
There was no other cat in the world that could look this beautiful.
Meow ~
The white cat called out in satisfaction and let Lin Jiufeng stroke her.
Hearing about Miss Hong had made her uncomfortable, but her unease disappeared when she sat on Lin Jiufeng’s palm.
The martial artist retracted his gaze from the white cat and said, “If you want to see this Miss Hong, you must go to the depths of the Northwest Territory, to the Mountain Sea Realm.”
Lin Jiufeng raised his brows. “The Mountain Sea Realm?”
What kind of coincidence was this?
He stepped into the Northwest Territory and received a Mountain Sea Key for his first sign-in within the territory.
The Mountain Sea Key was the key to opening the Mountain Sea Mystic Realm.
Was this Mountain Sea Mystic Realm related to the Mountain Sea Realm that this martial artist mentioned?
Lin Jiufeng found it interesting.
The martial artist explained. “As the name implies, the Mountain Sea Realm is a strange place deep in the Northwest Territory.”
“Over there, the land is filled with yellow sand. Together with the wind, it will spread everywhere. In less than a few seconds, you will be covered with sand upon entering that place.”
“There’s a saying that the wind blows every year, from spring to winter. There are strong winds once every few days, and there are small winds every day.”
“Originally, the wind and sand could even spread over here. Fortunately, thanks to the Mountain Sea Realm that blocked all the yellow sand and tall mountains on the other side, the Northwest Territory became separated into two parts.”
“The Mountain Sea Realm is truly a desolate and primitive landscape of the Northwest Territory that is often wracked by the sandstorm made from the yellow sands.”
“Outside the Mountain Sea Realm is here—the new Northwest Territory. The new Northwest Territory’s development has never faltered over the years. There are greeneries here everywhere.”
“The citizens throughout the Northwest Territory naturally gathered here…”
“The officials of the Yuhua God Dynasty also promised that they want to develop this place to the point that it could be compared to Jiangnan.” As the martial artist spoke, a look of longing appeared on his face. He was obviously imagining what kind of scene he would see once the Yuhua God Dynasty fulfilled its promise.
“No wonder I said that this North Gazing City’s name is so strange.”
“From the Northwest Territory, this city should be gazing towards the imperial capital, Jiangnan, and the Central Plains. There’s no reason for it to gaze back deeper toward the north. It turns out that this city is gazing at the Mountain Sea Realm.” Lin Jiufeng was enlightened.
“That’s right!”
“That is why if you want to find Miss Hong, you can only go to the Mountain Sea Realm…”
“But the Mountain Sea Realm is a very treacherous place…”
“There are many dangers within its confines, and there are also some bandits along with those renowned Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest.”
“Someone unprepared can easily die…”
“You might look handsome right now, but once you’re in there, you will immediately become dusty and dirty, becoming like a countryside child.” The martial artist chuckled and teased.
“There’s no need for you to worry about that.” Lin Jiufeng chuckled.
He threw down an ingot of silver and got up to leave.
He bade farewell to the martial artist and left North Gazing City with the white cat.
This city was gazing at the imperial capital, but up north.
This paying of respects alone was enough to witness the changes throughout the Northwest Territory. Especially in the decades of the reforms, the most affected by the reforms was the Northwest Territory.
Lin Jiufeng continued to travel deeper into the Northwest Territory from the North Gazing City with the white cat. This time, he didn’t rush. Instead, he carried the white cat and often stop to look around.
The scenes of the Northwest Territory were completely different from that of Jiangnan.
What Lin Jiufeng saw here was a crude and unpolished beauty—similar to a diamond in the rough.
The deeper he went, the more he could feel the violent winds sweeping up the yellow soil. The fierce winds directly blew against his face. If it weren’t for Lin Jiufeng’s True Qi protecting his body, he would’ve been covered in dust from head to toe by now.
Thanks to his True Qi, Lin Jiufeng and the white cat was able to admire the astonishing land of yellow dust and sand named—the Northwest Territory.
But unlike a typical desert, such a scene was a unique scenery that belonged solely to the Northwest Territory.
Fortunately, Lin Jiufeng was able to handle these problems with ease.
He strolled leisurely and soon arrived at the Mountain Sea Realm.
The core region of the Northwest Territory—the vast Mountain Sea Realm.
Upon entering, what he saw was a world of yellow with winds even more violent, turbulent, and shocking than the new Northwest Territory. The endless yellow plains and tall mountains were bare without any vegetation. There was no greenery at all.
Only the endless tempest and the dancing yellow sand that was constantly being stirred existed within the confines of this vast Mountain Sea Realm.
What surprised Lin Jiufeng even more was that he could smell the salty smell of seawater as he continued on his journey.
“There’s a sea in here?” Lin Jiufeng stopped in surprise and looked around.
“I can also smell seawater.” The white cat stood on Lin Jiufeng’s shoulder and said.
“It’s the smell of seawater! But there’s no sea at all around here.” Lin Jiufeng frowned. He was confused as to what was going on
His divine consciousness swept and spread in all directions, but he didn’t find anything abnormal.
“Let’s go deeper. We haven’t encountered any bandits or anyone else yet so far.”
Lin Jiufeng started to move faster.
The Mountain Sea Realm was huge, but Lin Jiufeng’s speed wasn’t slow either. He wasn’t as idle as before and he began to travel at his full speed. His divine soul constantly scanned the surrounding area with a thousand miles range.
He ran through the Mountain Sea Realm, passing through the tall and bald mountains.
Finally, he saw someone at the edge of an oasis.
This oasis was the only greenery in the entire region and the only water source that Lin Jiufeng had seen so far in the Mountain Sea Realm.
Here, Lin Jiufeng saw a huge bazaar filled with people.
There were many people from all walks of life.
“The only oasis in this place is sustaining this bazaar.” Lin Jiufeng stopped in his tracks.
His divine consciousness detected many powerhouses in the bazaar.
There were many people at the Boundless Realm, including the so-called Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest.
They were all at the Boundless Realm.
In addition, Lin Jiufeng also noticed Miss Hong’s presence.
She was also at the Boundless Realm, and she wasn’t weak either.
She was on the tenth step of the Boundless Realm.
But she seemed to have encountered some trouble.
Lin Jiufeng’s divine consciousness enveloped the bazaar.
He investigated the situation clearly, but no one among these experts noticed his presence.
He walked into the bazaar.
The largest building in the bazaar.
There were many people inside.
The Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest were surrounding Miss Hong at this moment.
“Miss Hong. You said that you are a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect?”
“Are you the one who sealed us brothers before?” A pot bellied man sneered.
It turned out that when the world’s spiritual energy had just started its recovery, some people from all over the world already wanted to come out in advance, but Miss Hong went around and suppressed these people who wanted to come into being.
The Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest were from the previous era. They weren’t particularly powerful back then, so they wanted to come out in advance and seize the opportunity to become stronger than their hibernating peers.
Unfortunately for them, they encountered Miss Hong just as they were about to come out.
They worked hard and joined forces before they were finally able to break Miss Hong’s seal.
The Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest appeared in the world and they were once again active in the Northwest Territory. When they saw Miss Hong this time, their eyes instantly reddened upon seeing their enemy.
“I am a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect. I have only executed my mission as a member of the Heavenly Dao Sect. It’s nothing personal.” Miss Hong’s lips were fiery red.
She was still dressed in red.
She was dressed in a way that made her seem fierce and this was complemented with her beautiful face exuding a trace of coldness.
All these years, she stayed in the Northwest Territory because she knew that there was no way that she could continuously uphold the Heavenly Dao Sect’s mission on her own.
But even if all the members of the Heavenly Dao Sect were to come into being, they still wouldn’t be able to seal those powerful experts from the previous era. Hence, she decided that she might as well take advantage of the situation and cultivate as much as she could.
It was just that she didn’t expect to be stopped here by the infamous Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest.
Miss Hong couldn’t help but frown secretly, annoyed.
One against one, one against two, one against three, or one against four…
She was confident of winning.
But one against 18, she had no confidence at all.
