Yuan Long and the others were embarrassed. They and Yun Lintian had just known each other, yet the latter gave them such a precious item. They didn't know how to respond at the moment.
"Take them. If you have encountered the enemy, you can use it and leave the place as soon as possible." Yun Lintian said calmly and stuffed the talismans in Yuan Long's hands.
"Thank you, Brother Lin. If we could leave alive, we would definitely repay this kindness." Yuan Long said heavily.
"Can you tell us more about the Eastern Continent? We haven't been there before." Shen Liqiu asked wittily, as she knew Yun Lintian must be interested to know it.
Jia Rong was the one who spoke. "Our Eastern Continent is a bit different from the other continents. Instead of having one palace and a few powerful factions like other places, we have more than twenty factions similar in terms of strength."
"The overall situation there can be described as peaceful until the change happened to the Blazing Sun Palace. Normally, the twenty factions below the Blazing Sun Palace would compete with each other in a healthy manner. No one would fight to dead. However, since the new Blazing Sun Palace Master took his position, the overall pattern has been changed entirely."
A grave expression appeared on her face as she continued. "A hundred years ago, the Blazing Sun Palace started grabbing all important resources such as Profound Spirit Mines and Spiritual Medicine Gardens in various places throughout the continent. This action affected us twenty factions significantly, causing the competition for resources to become severe."
Yuan Long added. "During this period, more than five factions have been eradicated from the world's surface. It's true that we cannot blame the Blazing Sun Palace entirely, but they have played a great role in this. They have broken the balance."
Jia Rong sighed softly. "Our Bright Sword Sect is not different. If it wasn't because our ancestor holds the line for us, we would have followed those five factions by now."
Shen Liqiu frowned slightly. "It's understandable that everyone needs to compete for resources, but it's obvious that there's something wrong with the Blazing Sun Palace Master."
Seeing the atmosphere wasn't good, Shen Liqiu changed the topic and continued to talk about various things.
Five days later, the carriage gradually arrived in a majestic city with sword-like pillars on the vast walls.
After going through a checking process, the carriage stopped at a transporting avenue nearby the city gate, dropping Yun Lintian and the others off.
"Thank you, everyone. Take care." The uncle carriage owner said happily after receiving the payment.
Yun Lintian smiled and turned to look at the bustling street before him. Compared to the Profound Sky Divine City, this Heavenly Sword Divine City was at least twice larger in both size and population.
All the buildings here were arranged neatly, reflecting how well the city planning was.
"It's worthy of being a divine city under the Heavenly Sword Palace." Yuan Long couldn't help saying in admiration.
Jia Rong and the others behind also nodded their heads in agreement. This was the first time they had come to a massive city like this.
"What's your plan, Brother Yuan?" Yun Lintian asked. "Are you heading to the register hall directly or finding accommodation first?"
During these five days, the relationship between Yun Lintian and Yuan Long's group became closer. They could freely talk about anything without reserve.
"I think we will find accommodation first. We are relatively late compared to others. I don't know if there's any vacant place left for us." Yuan Long said after thinking for a moment.
"Sure." Yun Lintian nodded and found an uncle nearby to ask for a direction.
The streets were full of people from various origins. Yun Lintian could see many Saints and Monarchs everywhere along the way. These people were accompanied by young practitioners. Obviously, they were elders from powerful sects, sending their disciples to participate in this event.
Soon, Yun Lintian's group arrived at a relatively high-end inn called "House of Prosperity." It was a twenty-storey building made of precious materials. With a glance, Yun Lintian could see powerful killing and protective formations around the place. It indicated how deep the owner's background was.
"Brother Lin, I'm afraid we cannot afford to live here." Yuan Long smiled bitterly when he looked at the luxury building before him.
"Since you treat me as a friend, I will naturally take care of you." Yun Lintian waved his hand dismissively and walked into the building.
"Welcome, dear esteemed guests. Are you here to dine or rest?" As soon as Yun Lintian stepped into the reception hall, a gorgeous female receptionist quickly stepped forward and greeted him.
"Is there a vacant room? We need six rooms." Yun Lintian stated directly.
"Yes, we have. I don't know which one do you want to choose? There is a low, middle, and high-end one." The receptionist asked with a smile.
"Let's choose the middle one. We will stay here for a month." Yun Lintian said and handed a storage ring to the receptionist. "Is this enough?"
The receptionist glanced at the content inside and smiled brightly. "It's enough. Please follow me."
Yun Lintian nodded and beckoned Yuan Long and the others to follow.
When they walked onto a stairway, a group of young practitioners happened to step down. The one on the forefront was a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows. At a glance, Yun Lintian could see this person was a sword practitioner.
As Yun Lintian glanced at him, the young man happened to look at him as well. The two looked at each other for a moment, and the young man said. "Hello, friend. My name is Jian Feng. May I know what your esteemed name is?"
His words immediately caused the young practitioners behind him to look at Yun Lintian's group curiously.
Yun Lintian was surprised and wondered why this person suddenly greeted him. He smiled and said. "My name is Lin Yun."
The young man, Jian Feng, nodded gently and cupped his fists. "There will be a period."
Afterward, he walked down, followed by the people behind him.
Yun Lintian didn't think about it much and continued to follow the receptionist.
"Young Master Jian?" As Jian Feng's group walked out of the building, a delicate young woman behind him asked in doubt.
Jian Feng turned to look at her and replied with a smile. "He's very strong."
