Dual Cultivation God Returns-Chapter 874: Deeply ponder
Chapter 874: Deeply ponder
The Deep Gorge Continent was a rather small one, located in a small World with only one World Stone leading in and out.
There were also only a few small Mortal Countries, all located at the furthest edges of the continent, with all of the central parts closer to the gorge either left untouched, or occupied by clans and families of cultivators.
It was the rare case of many various factions all sharing the same Spiritual Land, as it was too vast for one faction to control all of it, spanning nearly the entire continent, since the gorge was only its center.
Thus the news of a treasure ship bearing the mark of the Wei Dynasty’s Imperial Family arriving through the sole entry to the continent in the largest city of cultivators, the Shallow Gorge City, spread far and wide almost immediately.
It was a city located at one of the ends of the gorge, since that was where the World Stone was, where there was a small part of the gorge which was shallow.
In fact, it was possible to see the bottom of this shallow gorge with the eyes of a Mortal if they stood at the edge of the cliff. Thus it was also possible to see that there was an abrupt, steep end to this shallow part of the gorge, as it ended in a cliff as well.
Part of the city extended into this shallow gorge, although those were mostly the mining districts as entries to mines were cut into the cliff on the opposite side to the city.
The ship didn’t stop in the city’s sky port, if it could be called one since it was basically an artificial hill of piled rocks and earth, slightly reinforced by wooden beams, with a small wooden pier and a few buildings at the top.
The City Lord of the Shallow Gorge City, surrounded by a few nobles who all scrambled to the sky port watched the ship fly by with lost expressions, turning to each other with questioning looks.
Old Yen, Nie Guanting, and Kwon Qianhong were in the city, but did not hurry to come aboard, as this arrival stood out too much, and Wu Long would rather have the three be able to work covertly without announcing they worked for him to the entire continent.
After going past the Shallow Gorge City, the ship flew to the side of the gorge deeper into the continent, keeping a safe distance to not be affected by the area with no Flight Qi.
At this time, the ship’s speed no longer rose after passing through the World Stone, cruising at a pace at which one could enjoy the slowly passing scenery.
Wu Long, who came out to the balcony, threw an interested gaze to the gorge, his eyes flashing with profound patterns, but the seemingly chaotic, but actually moving according to some profound principles of the nature’s Feng Shui, torrents of Spiritual Qi were a lot denser the deeper it got, which obstructed his view, not letting his sight reach the very depths even with the Chaos Origin Eyes.
Of course, it was also affected by the restrictions of his cultivation, since he would likely be able to see the bottom of the gorge at least vaguely if he was at least in Essence Awakening Realm.
’Interesting... but judging from the faint aura... I’d rather not enter that gorge for now... I guess I’ll come by later’, he thought as he detected a faint, almost imperceptible even to him, presence of an Origin Grade Demonic Beast.
Whatever it was to be found within that gorge, however, was sure to be quite valuable.
He inwardly chuckled, fascinated how this was hidden in plain sight, as all these people living on the continent had no idea they walking atop a sleeping calamity.
But then again, it was often the case that the mundane and the extraordinary existed side by side without interfering, mutually unaware of the other’s existence.
And then, as he was thinking about it, a sound of the door sliding to the side resounded behind his back.
"This is... a Natural Formation?", Lian Zhiqiu spoke as she came out to the balcony he was on, and felt the breath of the gorge.
"Mm, an extremely powerful one, which is likely why this place attracted Symbol Arts Cultivators. It is much easier to make progress in cultivation if you practice Symbol Arts in this Spiritual Land", Wu Long nodded.
"And contemplating this Natural Formation leads to greater comprehensions in Symbol Arts, or can simply serve as inspiration and food for thought... truly a marvel of the nature", Lian Zhiqiu nodded as well.
Wu Long silently agreed, as they looked at the sight of the gorge stretching to both sides, as they slowly were moving along it.
"What do you say, want to deeply ponder on the intricacies of this Natural Formation through experiencing its flow and structure?", Wu Long chuckled, turning his eyes to her.
She raised her eyebrow, turning to him as well, and then realizing he wasn’t proposing exploring the gorge, but something else, a seductive smile appeared on her lips, as she replied, "You know I am always eager to contemplate Formations, especially when there is such a great opportunity"
She stepped closer to him, placing both hands on his upper chest, closer to the shoulders, while his hands wove around her waist, and then tugged, bringing her closer to him. freewebnøvel.com
"I am thinking of helping you bring out your concentration, and bring you closer to nature", Wu Long spoke with a smile, looking into her eyes.
"Just what I needed. How will you do it?", she asked, her tone becoming more and more intimate.
"By freeing your mind of its restrictions, and alleviating some of its burdensome needs"
His lips found hers, as Talismans silently spread around them, and concealing formations activating, so that no one would disturb their contemplation of the profound mysteries of a Natural Formation.
