Long Chen unfolded the body technique of the Thunder Falcon Clan, and his body was wrapped in thunder and lightning, turning into a Lei Yun. He galloped all the way, watching the void constantly changing, the refreshing speed made Long Chen excited, as if he returned to his childhood, the scene of Dragon Tianxiao taking him galloping.
Long Chen looked up to the sky and roared, thunder rolling, space twisting, his speed getting faster and faster, so fast that the sky and earth began to blur.
The wild galloping could make him more relaxed, feeling that all worries and sorrows were thrown far behind.
Now that he has left the Star Realm of Tiandu, Long Chen no longer fears exposing the secret of the Thunder Falcon Clan, and flies with all his strength.
After more than an hour, ahead of him was no longer a barren land, gradually appearing green vegetation, and the originally scarce spiritual energy between heaven and earth gradually became abundant.
Long Chen slowed down his pace, and no longer saw the flat desert in front of him. If he was not careful, he would be injured by hitting the mountain at such a fast speed.
Soon, people were seen in the distance. This place was still a wilderness, with sparse spiritual energy and few people. Long Chen's divine sense swept a glance, and these people seemed to be living by hunting.
Because the spiritual energy was sparse, there were no fierce beasts or demon beasts here, only some wild beasts. Perhaps it was because of this that these people could survive.
Long Chen stopped, looking at a small village not far away. There, dozens of children were waving sticks and shouting loudly. A man wearing coarse animal skins was holding a small stick and scolding them sternly. Whoever moved improperly was hit with a stick.
The children were not big, the smallest was about six or seven years old. When the stick fell, the child was so painful that he gritted his teeth and shed tears, but he did not dare to make a sound.
Beside them, there was also a group of women, disassembling some prey. The expert was sorting out the weapons. Those weapons were only ordinary iron, but they handled them very carefully, apparently these weapons were as important to them as life.
Seeing these villages, Long Chen suddenly had a ripple in his heart. He thought of a person, a slightly dark-faced girl with big eyes and a naive smile on her face.
Long Chen opened his hand and there was an extra necklace in his palm. The necklace was very rough, just a string of stones, a string of stones of different colors, strung together with hemp rope, and the stones were not all round. It didn't look good.
But Long Chen had always kept it very well. This was a small flower given to him by a flower in the wilderness of the Phoenix Empire. A simple and innocent girl who regarded him as a gift from heaven.
Long Chen thought of the Tianwu Continent, thought of those old friends, and did not know how they were now. How are those who have ascended? Have those who have not ascended adapted to the new world?
Long Chen sighed and carefully put away the necklace before continuing to fly forward.
As Long Chen flew, the spiritual energy ahead became more abundant and he gradually found traces of ferocious beasts as well as some cultivators.
Long Chen just happened to see an adventuring party being chased by a giant bear, it seemed like they were hunting and had disturbed something they couldn't handle. Just when the seven-person team was about to be killed, Long Chen stepped in and slapped the giant bear dead.
The people were saved from the brink of death and were extremely grateful to Long Chen. After questioning them, Long Chen found out that they came from a small city, but none of them knew which state it was in; clearly, it was very remote.
Long Chen had no choice but to follow the direction they said and eventually found the small city. It was indeed small, with a population of less than a million, and the strongest cultivator there was only at the Divine Fire stage. It was probably due to the lack of spiritual energy that limited the growth of the cultivators here.
Long Chen went straight to the Divine Fire stage cultivator and found out that this place belonged to Qingyang State.
Qingyang State was not included in the Hundred Domains and Thousand States, because after the Ancient War, it was abandoned for countless years and only recently, in the past few million years, was it suitable for cultivation. Therefore, it was incomparable to the states in the Heavenly Profound Domain.
The Hundred Domains and Thousand States referred to the star domains and state cities that had been preserved after the Ancient War.
In the Immortal Realm, the state was above the domain, the domain was above the star domain, and the star domain was above the sky. It was said that there were nine heavens in the entire Immortal Realm, but there were ten lands. This naming was somewhat contradictory, but people had been calling it this way since ancient times.
After finding out this information, Long Chen gave the old man a Longevity Pill that could extend his life by a thousand years. The old man was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
Because the small city was too poor, they couldn't even build a teleportation array. Long Chen had to fly all the way to Qingyang State.
When he arrived at Qingyang State, there was finally a semblance of the cultivation world. After entering the city, Long Chen inquired about the domain-level teleportation array.
This was not the Heavenly Profound Domain, and Long Chen had to teleport across domains. The inter-state teleportation array here could not reach the Heavenly Profound Domain.
So Long Chen spent money to teleport from Qingyang State to another state city, and then continued to seven other state cities before finally arriving at the core state city of this region.
When Long Chen arrived at the Domain-level Transmission Array, he found that it was locked and no one was guarding it.
Long Chen stood in front of the transmission array, just thinking of finding someone. Suddenly someone saw Long Chen, and said in shock:
"Are you... Long Chen? The one who won the Nine Realms Conference in Tianlan Domain?"
Long Chen didn't expect that someone here would know him, and hurriedly said, "Yes, it's me. Brother, can I ask if this transmission array can't be used?"
That was a four-level realm expert, but his soul fluctuation had begun to slow down. This person looked like he was in his thirties, but his age was actually not small.
However, in the practice world, respect is given to realms and strength. Sometimes calling each other brothers is a way of praising each other and pretending not to know each other's age.
"Of course it can be used, but our Domain-level Transmission Array here is rarely used, so we usually don't keep it open to save resources."
Long Chen's words of brother made that person ecstatic, and he immediately ran to inform the City Lord.
As a result, not only did the City Lord come, but also countless strong people came to watch. When they heard that the double champion of the Nine Realms Conference in Tianlan Domain had come, the news caused a great sensation.
The City Lord was an Earth-level Immortal King. It can be estimated that in this area, he was already a top-level expert. Shallow water can't raise big fish, and this place can't be compared with Tianlan Domain.
"Long Chen Dean, I have heard of your great name for a long time. No more words, I will not be polite. Are you in a hurry to go back to Tianlan Domain?" The City Lord asked.
"Yes, please be convenient for the City Lord." Long Chen bowed.
"May I ask Dean Long Chen, what is the situation there now?" The City Lord asked.
"What situation?" Long Chen was stunned.
"Don't you know that Tianlan Domain, Evil Dragon Domain and several other domains are being invaded by evil demons from other worlds, and the Sea of Demons has erupted, and the demons from the bottom of the sea have landed in various domains. Is our news wrong?" The City Lord asked suspiciously, and when he heard his words, Long Chen's face changed instantly.
