Chapter 324 - Immortal Civilization
Although Zhou Feng had never been to Celestial Lake City before, he knew that he wasn’t far from it.
As he looked at the increasing number of people around him, he could tell they weren’t far from Celestial Lake City.
The Purple Mansion cultivators were in the majority, and so were the Divine Ability cultivators.
Originally, Zhou Feng’s cultivation base was at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, and he could be considered a minor expert.
In Heavenly Star City, he could be considered one of the top cultivators.
Other than those Divine Ability geniuses, the ones behind him were only in the Purple Mansion realm.
But here, there were actually so many Divine Ability cultivators?
Didn’t they say that it was challenging to break through to the Divine Ability realm?
There was also one more thing. The surrounding cultivators all had obvious characteristics.
Almost everyone had a sharp aura, and there was a sword on their waist or back.
People like Zhou Feng were the minority here.
‘He isn’t tired at all?’
Looking at Zhou Fengyu’s face, which hadn’t changed much, Jiang Yi revealed a hint of fatigue because he kept running at such a high speed.
Moreover, he had to rely on his physical body to keep his aura from leaking out.
It was fine for a short period, but even Jiang Yi was a little tired after a long period.
After all, Jiang Yi didn’t specialize in cultivating the physical body. He spent most of his time studying the Sharpness Dao and Sword Dao.
If he could use his divine power, he could arrive at Celestial Lake City in an extremely short time.
However, Jiang Yi insisted on doing the same as Zhou Feng. He relied solely on the power of his physical body to run wildly on the road.
He didn’t even use his divine power to eliminate the fatigue of his physical body.
It could only be said that Jiang Yi was indeed worthy of his nickname, Stubborn Donkey Jiang.
In the Jade Sword Holy Land, Jiang Yi’s nickname was Stubborn Donkey Jiang.
He would often get to a dead end when he was certain of something. Then, he wouldn’t turn around even if he was dead. Even if it were wrong, he would still do
it.
This kind of strange temper was also famous.
‘I’m here!’
Zhou Feng didn’t care what Jiang Yi wanted to do.
A majestic city slowly appeared in front of him.
The winding and irregular city wall was like a real dragon lying on the earth.
Even when he saw this majestic city, Zhou Feng felt a pressure on his body.
The surrounding Spiritual Qi seemed to be locked.
Zhou Feng couldn’t move the surrounding Spiritual Qi as usual!
He couldn’t even absorb the floating Spiritual Qi.
Suffocation!
For cultivators who had just arrived at Celestial Lake City, this feeling was as if they were suffocating.
They simply couldn’t use their full strength.
Appraising Eye!
Zhou Feng used the Appraising Eye on a whim.
[Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation: A very special formation that must rely on Sect Qi to operate as the formation’s eye.
Once set up, it can suppress all the Spiritual Qi in the surroundings and suppress the strength of all cultivators.
One can unleash all their strength in this formation by carrying a special token.]
‘This is a super formation? It directly covers the entire Celestial Lake City! Including all the places near Celestial Lake City?’
Big deal! This was what a big deal was!
With such a super formation around, one would have to pay a huge price if they wanted to cause trouble in Celestial Lake City.
And because all of the cultivators’ strength had been suppressed to a certain limit, the safety of Celestial Lake City was guaranteed.
After all, as the level of the cultivators continued to rise, if there were no restrictions, any random Purple Mansion cultivator would be able to destroy a city.
Clearly, this massive formation was one of the Jade Sword Holy Land’s safeguards.
It was to ensure the safety of Celestial Lake City and prevent other cultivators from causing trouble.

Only a safe environment could attract more people.
As expected, Heavenly Star City was a rural area.
Without the suppression of such a huge formation, just relying on the so-called city guards wouldn’t be reliable.
If there were an accident, it would easily cause the residents of the city to be injured.
Such an unsafe city with huge hidden dangers wouldn’t be able to develop.
Zhou Feng could already imagine it.
Those cities that were even more majestic than Celestial Lake City would definitely have even more powerful formations suppressing these unruly cultivators.
And this was the most barren region of the Southern Border. What kind of scene would this be if this was the Eastern Land or the Central Plains?
The closer he got to Celestial Lake City, the more Zhou Feng felt the pressure on his body gradually increase.
‘With such a huge formation, they don’t even need a guard!”
Zhou Feng walked to the city gate and slowly stopped.
There wasn’t even a guard at the city gate. It was just open like that.
Naturally, with such a huge formation, there was no need for a guard at all. Walking to the city gate, Zhou Feng felt that his strength had been suppressed to the extreme.
One had to know that this kind of great formation had such a great pressure effect even on his physical body.
If it were any other normal cultivator, how much would their strength be suppressed?
In any case, it was impossible to fly near Celestial Lake City.
There was no need to take the initiative to restrict it. With this kind of suppressive formation, if you could fly, it meant that you were at least in the Dragon Transformation realm.
“Celestial Lake City is still as oppressive as before!”
Jiang Yi walked to Zhou Feng’s side and heaved a light sigh of relief.
He could finally rest!
However, it was very obvious that Jiang Yi didn’t really like this super formation.
After saying that, Jiang Yi took out a small sword-shaped jade pendant.
“This is much more comfortable!”
After taking out that sword-shaped jade pendant, the restriction on Jiang Yi’s body was instantly removed.
His entire body became relaxed. It was obvious that this was the Jade Sword disciples’ privilege.
Moreover, it was a privilege that only core disciples had.
As for the others, they could only silently endure the formation’s suppression.
Still, they weren’t always suppressed like this in Celestial Lake City.
The inns or houses in the city didn’t have this kind of suppression. They all had a special supply of Spiritual Qi, which was used for the cultivation of various cultivators.
However, the inns and houses in Celestial Lake City were all the Jade Sword Holy Land’s assets.
In order to obtain a property in Celestial Lake City, one had to use the contribution points of the Jade Sword Holy Land to exchange for it.
At the same time, the contribution points required for an outsider to exchange for a property were doubled.
Obviously, this was intentional!
If the Jade Sword Holy Land wanted to maintain a super formation like the Nine Dragons Spirit-Locking Formation and it had to be active at all times, the number of resources and Spirit Stones required would definitely be massive.
Then where would these resources and Spirit Stones come from?
They had to come from the cultivators who lived in Celestial Lake City.
This was a chain of links.
There were so many cultivators in Celestial Lake City. This was simply too amazing!
No wonder it was called a holy land. The Jade Sword Holy Land controlled many cities like Celestial Lake City, so the number of resources they absorbed every year was massive.
After using this massive amount of resources to nurture their disciples, the strength of their disciples would also skyrocket.
Then, they would have enough experts protecting such a foundation.
This was a virtuous cycle.
‘It really resembles an immortal civilization…’
After Zhou Feng learned all this, it was an eye-opener.
