87: Magic City, Baishen

Historical records, regarding that epochal war, merely summarized it with a few frugal words like "world-shattering," "earth-shattering," "continental submergence," and "utterly depraved."

Hidden behind those words was a tragedy and grandeur impossible to describe.

Even in the colorful cinematic blockbusters, the full scope of that battle was veiled in a layer of mystery, as if deliberately avoiding the overly heavy and cruel truth.

Han Fei's heart at this moment was entangled with countless unsolved mysteries, curiosity and reverence intertwined into a complex web.

Just as he was about to inquire for more fragments of that past, a hint of weariness appeared in Luna's eyes.

"Don't ask anymore; those memories, I don't want to recall."

Immediately, she moved slightly, transforming into a wisp of profound light, silently seeping into Han Fei's body.

A sentence echoed in his ear: "I want to sleep for a while; don't disturb me during this time."

Although Han Fei had a thousand questions upon seeing this, he could only suppress them, not daring to disturb her further.

Out of boredom, Han Fei could only turn his gaze to the window.

Outside the window, white clouds spread like a vast sea, occasionally a colossal object would break through the clouds, causing the plane to bump.

The stealth technology of this military aircraft was indeed very strong; even after several encounters with giant beasts, it did not arouse any suspicion from them, as if it were a ghost shuttling between heaven and earth.

Silent, traceless.

The journey slowly progressed in an indescribable tranquility.

Tianhe City and the renowned Magic City were not actually far apart.

Approximately two hours later, as the plane slowly descended, Han Fei's gaze pierced through the thin clouds and mist, capturing the majestic and unique outline of the Magic City in the distance.

The Magic City, as one of Dragon Country's two Tier 4 cities, with its vast territory and prosperous scene, was completely incomparable to Tianhe City.

First and foremost was its area; the Magic City's footprint was at least ten times that of Tianhe City.

This not only provided endless possibilities for urban development but also made everyone who stepped into this city feel an indescribable shock.

Countless people gathered here like a sea, and the wheels of the economy rolled forward, driving the city's pulse to beat continuously.

The intelligent Systems between skyscrapers and the autonomous vehicles shuttling on the streets all showcased the city's leading-edge appearance.

More importantly, as a Tier 4 city, the Magic City had A-Rank Experts stationed there long-term, making its safety far superior to that of Tier 2 or 3 cities.

As his vision gradually approached the Magic City, an astonishing sight slowly unfolded, and the visual impact left Han Fei unforgettable for a long time.

The sky was no longer a simple blue canvas but had transformed into a stage where technology and magic intertwined.

Various high-tech airships streaked across like meteors, with massive flying pets keeping pace, their shadows playing among the clouds, a breathtaking sight.

And those Cultivators flying on swords, like streaks of light, dotted the scene, making the city vibrant and colorful.

Compared to the grandeur of the sky, the city scenery below was even more diverse.

Skyscrapers, with their futuristic design concepts, stood proudly on the vast land, surpassing their time.

Their silver exteriors, under the brilliant sunlight, seemed to be covered with a layer of flowing liquid metal, shimmering with a luster that was both cold and captivating.

Interspersed among them were fantastical buildings, some with the charm of ancient castles, others like elven treehouses, each with a distinct style yet coexisting harmoniously.

Among all these buildings, what captivated Han Fei the most were the miniature cities floating on the sea, enveloped in bubbles—the Bubble Cities of the Sea.

Each seemingly small and exquisite bubble city actually contained a world of its own.

Once one passed through the transparent membrane of the bubble, it was like stepping into another dimension.

Inside, the city layout was complete, facilities advanced, with living areas, commercial streets, and green parks all available, its scale and size no less than any standard Tier 3 city.

And the sea surrounding the entire Magic City had thousands of such bubble cities!

That's equivalent to thousands of Tier 3 cities in this one sea area!

This scale and creativity were enough to make 99% of the world's forces look up to it.

It was precisely by virtue of such astonishing scale, unparalleled integration of technology and magic, and incomparable safety and prosperity that the Magic City stood out among many cities, proudly taking its place among the Tier 4 cities, becoming a Holy Land yearned for by people, and a symbol of Dragon Country's pride.

It should be known that there are only eight Tier 4 cities in the entire world.

And the Magic City ranked third!

It is a world-renowned international super first-tier city!

"There are actually so many tiny bubbles here," Luna Fairy Spirit's voice suddenly rang out.

"You're awake?" Han Fei asked using magic sound transmission.

"A very dangerous aura scared me awake," Luna Fairy Spirit's voice carried a hint of displeasure and wariness.

"Dangerous aura?"

Han Fei immediately heightened his vigilance, quickly scanning his surroundings, not missing a single corner.

However, everything around him was calm as usual, with no signs of abnormality.

"Don't look anymore, it's that Oriental Pearl Tower outside."

Luna Fairy Spirit said, floating gently towards the window, her fingertip lightly touching the window frame, slowly pointing towards the distant skyline, to that towering, radiant Oriental Pearl Tower.

"Oriental Pearl..."

Han Fei's gaze pierced through the clouds, looking into the distance.

There stood a colossal structure, reaching into the sky.

It stood silently in the heart of the Magic City, like a brilliant pearl, embedded in the world's bosom, inspiring awe.

The Oriental Pearl Tower is not only a landmark building of Dragon Country but also an epic structure built by the entire Dragon Country, costing countless efforts.

There are only three epic structures in the entire Dragon Country.

Besides the Oriental Pearl Tower, the other two are the Dragon Spine Great Wall, winding along the mountain peaks like a soaring Dragon, and the Sword Sealing Platform, standing atop Mount Tai, where the Immortal Slaying Sword Array is sealed.

These three epic structures are not only part of Dragon Country's magnificent landscape but also the cornerstone for the nation to maintain its Superpower status.

They are like three immortal guardians, defending the safety of this land with their unparalleled power and mystery.

Without their protection, how could Dragon Country confidently dispatch numerous Experts to various parts of the world to guard those interest zones crucial to the nation?

And the Oriental Pearl Tower, located on Dragon Country's only open seaport, not only guards Dragon Country's peace but also silently proclaims Dragon Country's strength to the entire world.

It is a symbol of national prestige and power, and an important weight in maintaining Dragon Country's central position on the international stage.

"When was this thing built?" Luna Fairy Spirit asked curiously, pressing against the crystal-clear window glass.

Han Fei checked online and said, "More than 200 years ago."

"How long did it take to build?" Luna Fairy Spirit asked again.

"Roughly over 100 years."

Upon hearing this, Luna Fairy Spirit's face showed a hint of surprise and admiration.

She praised unreservedly, "It seems I still underestimated your era; even in my time, this building would have taken two or three hundred years to construct."

During their casual conversation, the plane also flew over the city and landed steadily at the Special Guard Team's exclusive airport.

Immediately after disembarking, the Special Guard Team's receptionist, with the highest efficiency, responded to Han Fei's needs, leading him to a floating apartment situated above the clear blue waters.

Stepping inside the apartment, a tropical ambiance enveloped him, every inch of space exuding a natural and leisurely atmosphere.

The room's structure was ingeniously designed; the walls and floor were meticulously assembled from selected magic Spirit Wood, with faint traces of time visible on each piece of wood.

Despite its simple exterior, the interior facilities were exceptionally complete and advanced, from intelligent climate control Systems to invisible high-tech security measures, everything was available.

After simply putting away his luggage, Han Fei eagerly asked Luna Fairy Spirit to perform her magic.

"What's the rush? We just arrived at sea, and we still need to prepare," Luna Fairy Spirit said while eating magic cake.

"Prepare what else?" Han Fei wondered.

"Prepare for Enchantment."

Luna Fairy Spirit said, flicking her finger lightly, a faint glow flashed, and the fragments of the white god Tower slowly emerged from the Void Realm.

"Give me the white god clear tea."

Han Fei dared not delay, quickly took out the white god clear tea from his bag, and handed it to Luna Fairy Spirit.

After receiving the tea leaves, she carefully placed the white god clear tea leaves and the fragment together into a black box covered with ancient runes.

These runes seemed to be alive, faintly shimmering under her touch, releasing a soft, dim light, as if whispering secrets from a distant era.

As Luna Fairy Spirit closed her eyes in concentration, a series of obscure and difficult-to-understand incantations began to flow from her lips.

The surface of the black box gradually glowed with warm, bright yellow runes, like fireflies in the night sky, lighting up one after another, slowly drifting across the box.

Han Fei watched silently from the side.

Amidst the flickering light of the runes, he seemed to hear a long, melodious song from the sky.

The melody was long and pure, without a trace of Impurities, striking deep into his soul, causing a strange resonance within Han Fei.

The next moment, his vision seemed to be shrouded in a veil, and an illusion gradually appeared.

A deity in a snow-white robe sat upon the clouds, plucking a harp, each note accompanied by joyful singing.

"This... this is..."

Han Fei murmured softly, unable to believe his eyes.

He rubbed his eyes hard, but the illusion not only did not dissipate but became even clearer, existing before him as if real.

Luna Fairy Spirit chuckled, a hint of mystery in her eyes, "You saw the white god, didn't you?"

"The white god? That God of Luck?"

Han Fei was amazed, but more than that, he felt reverence.

In this world, there were rumors that an unimaginable "Divine Spirit treasure chest" once existed.

Anyone fortunate enough to open it would immediately gain divinity, transform into a Dominator of rules, and step into the divine Domain unreachable by Mortals.

The white god was one of them.

He, through the miracle of the Divine Spirit treasure chest, obtained the divinity of the God of Luck, and from then on controlled all good fortune and miracles in the world, becoming an immortal Incarnation of rules.

Besides the white god, legends of dozens of other deities, such as the God of Fire, God of Water, and God of Death, also circulated in this world.

Although they had never appeared in the present world, their existence, like an invisible hand, influenced the world in various ways.

For example, the Exotic Fire treasure chest is said to be a legacy of the God of Fire's power, having an inseparable connection with him.

And the white god clear tea, just its name alone, was enough to make one associate it with the profound connection to the white god.

It is said that every white god clear tea leaf was touched by the white god, imbued with his lucky aura.

Thinking of the myths and legends passed down from ancient times, a strange curiosity welled up in Han Fei's heart.

He involuntarily narrowed his eyes, attempting to pierce through the shimmering mist and discern the mysterious face of the white god in the illusion.

However, at that very moment of seeking the truth, a sudden, sharp pain assailed his eyes.

It was as if an inviolable power had issued a warning, forcing him to tightly shut his eyelids, pain and panic intertwining in his heart.

Luna Fairy Spirit witnessed all this, a slightly playful smile gracing her lips, and she teased softly, "Are you tired of living, daring to glimpse the true face?"

Han Fei covered his still-aching eyes, filled with lingering fear, and asked with a slight tremor in his voice, "Their faces... can't be seen?"

"It's not that they can't be seen, but with your Mortal flesh, one glance would probably kill you outright."

Her words were both serious and playful, subtly deepening Han Fei's reverence for this world.

After this ordeal, the stirring curiosity in Han Fei's heart was completely replaced by fear, and he no longer dared to easily look directly at the white god in the illusion.

In the time that followed, Luna Fairy Spirit focused wholeheartedly on the Enchantment work.

The entire process lasted for nearly an hour.

After the Enchantment was finished, she placed the tea leaves on a pristine white plate.

As she chanted the ancient and mysterious incantation, the elements in the air seemed to awaken, slowly gathering.

Soon, a miracle occurred.

Drops of clear, transparent seawater, as if drawn by some mysterious power, slowly rose from the distant blue sea surface, transcended the constraints of space, and gently floated into the room.

In an instant, hundreds of drops of seawater danced and swirled in the air, finally settling lightly above the tea leaves on the plate in a seemingly chaotic yet profoundly ordered manner.

Next, Luna Fairy Spirit moved her hands, performing another series of complex and profound magical gestures.

The once ordinary water droplets gradually transformed under the influence of magic, becoming blue runes emitting a faint golden glow.

They gently spun in the air, like stars falling to the Mortal world, or ancient wisdom whispering, full of incredible magic and auspicious Qi.

"Golden-grade magic runes! They were condensed so easily?!"

Han Fei was astonished by this, almost unable to believe his eyes.
