Talisman Reincarnation - All My Clones Are Dao Ancestors-Chapter 129: Teleportation Hall

As they talked Fu Xian and Huoling arrived at the end of the road.

Eight paths opened up to them.

Both went down the same path, to the All Affairs hall.

They walked down the path, the scenery changed slowly.

At the end they entered a plaza with many halls all around.

One of these halls had a large plaque with the inscription "Teleportation Hal".

Entering this one, they saw many receptions. In the centre of the whole hall there was a moving map.

The movement was extremely small, miniscule even.

But Fu Xian knew that the distance crossed each second was more than he could cross in a day!

The map wasn’t very detailed, mainly containing some superficial details, the names of the regions, and how far they were from the Immortal City.

He looked at the map and searched for the rank six kingdom he was born in – Tingle Kingdom.

Having seen this map several times, it didn’t take long for him to find the kingdom.

It was in the lower-mid section of the western border of the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Alliance.

They had passed its range for quite some time, direct teleportation was impossible.

Fu Xian used his own knowledge to draw a map in his mind.

’To reach the Tingle Kingdom from this position, I will have to teleport to the nearest kingdom. That one is a lower fifth stage kingdom. Then teleport from its capital to the nearest alliance teleport tower, then crossing two more kingdoms. Finally I will arrive in the Nanhu Empire, a southern empire known for its fierce martial arts inheritance.

From then on, I only need to teleport to a last alliance teleportation tower and arrive at my destination!’

Although the journey seemed to be rather short, in fact, each nation had a wide territory. It wasn’t like the territory of sects that mainly focused on the core region and had a bunch of vassal forces in the further regions.

Nations had extremely wide territory. Because of their structure, they are able to manage extremely large tracks of land without having any issue.

That’s exactly why there are so many strong sects in different nations. Even when these sects become stronger, they in turn just make the nation their vassal and support their expansion, but they don’t take the control over the territory.

Seeing him look at the map, Huoling asked him, "Do you also intend to go to the Nanhu Empire?"

"Hmm?" Fu Xian was surprised, "You too?"

"Indeed. The ones that hired me this time are from the Nanhu Empire! While they have a strong martial arts tradition, their other traditions are rather weak. Even the sects in their empire focus on beast taming, spiritual planting and alchemy. They built their whole economy around the resources martial artists need to progress further.

While weapons seem to be important, to martial artists, they are mostly tools that can help them, but they don’t necessarily need them.

That’s why the weapon refining industry has always been doing bad.

Because of this, all the weapon refiners there have long waiting lists.

The noble family that hired me this time has many requests and can’t wait for some weapon refiners to open up for them."

"Is that so? Do you think they need talismans?" Fu Xian asked curiously.

Huoling shook her head, "Talismans are external tools they need even less than weapons. Nations with a strong scholarly tradition prefer talismans over weapons though, so you might try your luck there."

"Oh it’s fine. Sister has been at he third stage for some time so you have your own foundation in weapon refining. But I have just advanced and can only draw a few third stage talismans, which isn’t enough to sell out."

Huoling nodded and didn’t say much.

They saw a reception open and walked together.

"I want a teleportation ticket to this kingdom. My end goal is the Nanhu Empire, and I intend to stay for three years. My neighbourhood leader has already approved of this, so I don’t need any extra help." Huoling quickly explained her request to the receptionist.

Hearing this, the receptionist wrote a few things down and tapped on the jade on her table.

While she was tapping, she looked over to Fu Xian "Do you need the same?"

"No I will be going to the Tingle Kingdom south of the Nanhu Empire, so I will need the same ticket. I intend to stay for at most a month, my whole journey shouldn’t take more than three months. My neighbourhood leader also knows of this." Fu Xian had said at the meeting that he would invite the daoist. Since eldest senior sister Ziling advanced, she became a vice-leader of the neighbourhood. Her approval was as much worth as that of the neighbourhood leader.

"Since both of you have the approval, then I won’t add you on the potential danger list. But if your stay exceeds that of the time you gave, we will inform your neighbourhood leader of this situation.

As formal citizen, you will can ask for a free teleportation ticket once a year. You can also use this ticket when you return to avoid going through the layers of security."

Just as the receptionist was talking, she saw Ye Long behind Fu Xian.

"Is this your disciple? If he’s not a formal citizen, then he needs an additional ticket.

You can either use the free ticket you would get next year. Or pay for the ticket."

"Brother, just use the one for next year. You can only store up to five tickets, from then on, you will have to use them to get tickets again. Based on this, you can also loan five tickets. So you don’t need to save them."

"In that case, take the ticket for next year."

The receptionist nodded. A moment later, she took out three jade slips, giving them two to Fu Xian and one to Huoling.

"Thank you for your help," Fu Xian and Huoling thanked the reception before going behind the reception.

There were several small cabins behind them.

Some had a golden light, others had a silver light.

Fu Xian turned to Ye Long and explained, "Golden means it’s in use, silver means it’s available.

One person per teleportation cabin, so you go before me. Sister Huoling, I hope it’s okay if you go first."

"Haha, sure, I will demonstrate to little Long."

She walked to one of the open cabins and showed Ye Long the inside – It was bare except for a small hole at the end of the wall.

Entering it, she put the jade slip ticket into the hole. Instantly, golden light formed around the cabin like a barrier.

Fu Xian then walked to another cabin and led Ye Long to do the same.

Finally, he went to another cabin and did the same.
