84: Chapter 84 Riding a whale across the sea, wielding a sword and composing poetry, reigning supreme over the Sun and Moon Continent!
As he spoke, there wasn't a hint of jealousy in the man's eyes; instead, they were filled with deep longing, as if he were looking at his lifelong idol.
"Indeed, in the Face of absolute talent, hard work is not even worth mentioning!"
"However, only through hard work can we catch a glimpse of the scenery, right?"
Ning Rongrong was truly at a loss when it came to such fanatical admirers.
As for arguing back, as the captain of the first team and someone capable of suppressing Dugu Yan, how could he be a pushover?
She couldn't win in a fight, and she couldn't win in an argument. It was truly annoying!
Fortunately, while Ning Rongrong couldn't handle him, there was someone who could.
"Captain, you've misunderstood. We've actually finished our training. We only came out to pay our respects because we saw the Honorary Dean on the ranking."
"Just now, Xiao Wu was just a bit curious about that tower in the square. I don't know what it's for. Captain, do you know?"
Excellent!
As long as you're a fan of Qin Yun, then we're all friends!
Generally speaking, as long as someone praised Qin Yun, the captain would give them some benefits, but today...
Glancing at the nearly completed Nine-Story Glazed Pagoda outside, he didn't offer an introduction but simply said calmly:
"Those who know about that place naturally know, and those who don't shouldn't ask too many questions. You'll find out once it's completed."
"As a friendly tip, I heard Dean Qin say that to prevent any sabotage, two more Titled Douluo were dispatched there not long ago."
"Anyone without authorization risks their life if they get close. Everyone, keep that in mind!"
Two more Titled Douluo were dispatched?
Others might not know who these two suddenly appearing Titled Douluo were, but Xiao Wu knew in her heart.
After all, if she hadn't been captured by Yue Guan and Gui Mei back then, she wouldn't have joined the Qingyun Sect.
The only unexpected thing was that they had actually passed the test and joined the Qingyun Sect so quickly.
"They really aren't giving Spirit Hall any Face at all!"
"But for me, the stronger the Qingyun Sect is, the better it is."
"As for that Nine-Story Glazed Pagoda... since I don't understand it, I won't look at it. It has nothing to do with me anyway," Xiao Wu thought to herself.
Little did she know, the Glazed Pagoda nearing completion in the square was indeed closely related to her.
After all... that was the Spirit Pagoda mentioned in the Heavenly Dao Golden List!
Unlike the one built by Huo Yuhao and Electrolux, Qin Yun had used his transcendent Artifact Refining techniques to make some changes based on that foundation.
However, Qin Yun didn't plan to reveal this information until it was fully established and the trials were completed.
Otherwise, while it was unknown what others might think, Di Tian would definitely go into a frenzy.
...
[...Although the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and Beast God Di Tian provided resources, and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well could continuously cultivate Immortal Plants.]
[However, for Qin Yun and his future plans, this was still not enough!]
[Therefore, once the dust settled and a stage of steady development began, Qin Yun, whose cultivation had already reached Rank 98, turned his gaze toward the Far West!]
[It wasn't the Haagen-Dazs Kingdom to the west of the Douluo Continent, nor was it the Sea God Island in the deep sea, but a place even further than Sea God Island!]
[Using the excuse of secluded cultivation to briefly leave the continent, Qin Yun found the Deep Sea Demon Whale King and had him help start a new journey!]
...
[Meow meow meow? What's the situation? Where is the Far West of the Douluo Continent?]
[I don't know. Before Sea God Island appeared, I always thought the ocean was the westernmost part of the Douluo Continent.]
[As for what lies west of Sea God Island, I, at least, have no idea.]
[@Yu Xiaogang, Xiaogang, what do you say?]
[Yu Xiaogang: There are currently no relevant records on the continent. I can say for certain that neither the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect nor Spirit Hall has them, so I'm not particularly clear on this either.]
[Got it. After leaving those two Sects, you have absolutely nothing of your own, right?]
[Yu Xiaogang: ...]
So frustrating, he really wanted to beat him up, but strangely enough, it seemed like he was right!
...
Heaven Dou City—no, it should be called Chang'an now.
Sitting on the dragon throne and processing memorials, Qian Renxue also showed a hint of curiosity.
However, unlike others who were curious about the Far West, what Qian Renxue was curious about was actually Qin Yun's true dream.
*Pa!*
Closing the memorial, Qian Renxue asked Qin Ming, who was nearby.
"Dean Qin, besides Old Poison, you've probably known the Sect Master the longest and have the deepest friendship, right?"
"Do you have any recollection of this matter?"
Qin Ming: "Now that the Heavenly Dao Golden List mentions it, I do recall."
"Indeed, there was one time the Sect Master was in seclusion for a very long time, and when he returned, he brought back many resources. Not only that, but the spirit tool research that had been somewhat stagnant since then also began to advance by leaps and bounds."
"I originally thought those were gains from his seclusion, but looking at it now, he likely went to the Far West!"
"As for what's over there or exactly where it is, I don't really know."
"If we want to understand clearly, we might have to ask the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. After all, according to the Heavenly Dao Golden List, it was the one who took the Sect Master there."
"As the overlord of the ocean and an eyewitness, it must know much more than we do!"
Tapping her fingers on the table, Qian Renxue fell into silent thought.
"Setting aside the Far West for now, what about his dream? Do you have any insight into that?"
"Your Majesty, you're making things difficult for me. The Sect Master is deep and calculating. Although he's approachable, the pressure he exerts is extraordinary. I'm sure Your Majesty can sense that as well."
"There are some things that if the Sect Master doesn't mention, we don't dare to ask!"
"However, one thing I can be certain of is that reaching Rank 100 and becoming a god is definitely not the Sect Master's dream."
"After all, for him, it's just a matter of course!"
"As for hobbies..."
After a moment of silence, Qin Ming gave an answer that wasn't really an answer.
"The Sect Master likes to look at the stars at night. I don't know if that counts?"
"Looking at the stars?" Qian Renxue mused.
"Does he feel the continent is too small, far less vast than the Universe?"
"Even though he always talks about 'lying flat,' in reality, he's someone who truly can't stay idle!"
...
While everyone on the continent was still discussing, the golden sea of clouds churned, and a new scene was revealed.
[At the western edge of the Douluo Continent, where the vast sea flows, Qin Yun stood on the back of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, cutting through ten thousand miles of blue waves.]
[After passing Sea God Island and drifting for a full month, he finally saw traces of land!]
[This was the Far West of the Douluo Continent, named the Sun Moon Continent!]
[Qin Yun's cultivation had reached a Bottleneck, and the common minerals and basic formations of the Douluo Continent were no longer sufficient for his research. Only by traveling to the Sun Moon Continent, rumored to have richer spirit tool mineral deposits, could he find rare refined gold, Spatial Soul Marrow, and lost Formation Diagrams to break through in both his cultivation and spirit tool research.]
[On this trip, he traveled alone with only his sword, crossing the ocean without relying on any external power.]
[His swordsmanship had reached a level where he could wield it at will; wherever there were flood dragons, he would slay them!]
[Riding a whale across the sea, reciting poetry with a sword in hand, he shattered a thousand layers of waves and arrived safely at the other shore!]
