Legend of the Perfect Emperor Chapter 31: Four Ancient Lands

"We have arrived at the Soaring Sun City," Xiao said to the two at the back of his carriage.

Tian Yi turned his head to look at the front of the carriage, his eyes widened with surprise.

Meng Xiang also turned to look, but she was more baffled than surprised.

"Surprised, huh? I guess neither of you has been here before…" Xiao smiled at their reaction.

The Soaring Sun City was… well, a whole city hovering above a giant red crystal ball that was planted on the ground.

It was as though that giant red crystal ball was the sun and it grew on the ground, uplifting an entire city as it grew larger.

And despite being lifted into the air, it wasn't too high, being around 1,000 meters off the ground.

"What is that red crystal ball?" Meng Xiang asked, pointing towards the red crystal ball underneath the city.

"Nobody really knows as it has been there since the ancient times. There are records that suggest it is some kind of treasure." Xiao answered.

The red crystal ball has been there since the ancient times, so long ago that even its history has been lost in the passage of time for a long time.

Tian Yi narrowed his gaze at the red crystal ball. "Ridiculous." He unknowingly muttered, attracting Meng Xiang's gaze.

When she looked at his face, there was a furrow between his brows, clearly showing his displeasure.

"Big Brother?" she called out to him.

Tian Yi shook his head. "It is nothing. As long as it does nothing, there shouldn't be any problems."

His words puzzled her, making her ponder the meaning behind it.

"Do not think too much about it; there is no point... really."

"Un." Meng Xiang listened and no longer thought about his previous words.

Xiao sped up the horses and the carriage moving speed upon seeing the city, quicking closing in.

A few hours later, they arrived in front of the red crystal ball where a countless of figures waited to be transported to inside the city.

To get into the Soaring Sun City, one must enter one of the dozens of circles on the ground surrounded by guards clad in armors and armed with weapons.

These circles were made with teleportation talismans, allowing the caster to teleport everything within the circle to another circle made by the same caster.

There were 12 circles on the ground below the city, each allowing at most a group of 30 people into the city every few minutes.

However, as fast as that sounded, there were thousands of people gathered here with the number increasing by the second.

And with the event that would be happening only a few days from now, the numbers will only increase exponentially.

"Well, I guess this is the end of our journey together." Xiao turned to look at the two with a smile. "I will be going to the queue meant for merchants while the two of you will go to the queue meant for visitors; our path separates here."

"It was a new experience that has broadened my view exponentially, and I thank you for that, big brother and little sister." He stood up and gave them a courteous bow, one filled with awe and deep respect, especially towards Meng Xiang who would surely be shocking the world one day not too far in the future.

Tian Yi returned his courtesy with a bow, "Thank you for the ride, senior. I am sure that we will one day meet again on the same path."

Meng Xiang copied him and also bowed.

Xiao laughed heartily. 'To receive such respect from future legends, I will surely brag about this in the future!' he said to himself.

"Farewell, my little friends!" He then turned around and left with his carriage, going to the end of the right side where other people also with carriages waited.

Tian Yi and Meng Xiang also turned to walk towards one of the lines randomly and began waiting.

After waiting in line for nearly an hour, the nosy surroundings became chaotic.

"Look! There is the Divine Serpent Sect!"

"The Four Ancient Lands is here!"

The people in line pointed to the group of green-robed figures flying towards the city.

Each of these green-robed figures was standing on a piece of green scale as they soared through the sky like immortals.

"Ahhh! It is Lu Sei, Direct Disciple of the Sect Master!" screamed a fangirl.

Out of the dozens of figures in the air, the most noticeable within that group was a handsome young man with green eyes and long black hair, his gaze nonchalant as countless people mention his name.

"Lu Sei, an expert with a cultivation base at the Heavenly Immortal Stage at the age of 26!"

"He reached the Spirit Ascension Stage at the age of 12, ascending to the Immortal Realm only 4 years later! He is now 27 years old and has a cultivation base of the Ancient Immortal Stage, walking only a few steps behind Divine Grace Yu!"

Tian Yi looked at the green-robed figures, his heart filled with envy. 'Ahh… Disciples… when will I get to become one?' he pondered.

Becoming a disciple of a Sect and learning alongside fellow disciples was a dream of his ever since he learned of them.

"Look! The Ancient Dragon Sect is right behind them!" Another individual shouted out in the midst of the excitement, causing the entire place to go havoc with even more excitement.

The Four Ancient Lands are, in the eyes of the outsiders, a land where Immortals with the power to change the weather with a mere hand flip roamed— a land of supreme beings!
