Even if it's just a legend, Qin Chuan needs to know what kind of place it is. After all, there's no smoke without fire, and besides, he knows very well that the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace isn't a legend; it's a real place.
The City Lord shook his head: "Actually, it's a legendary place, so telling you is useless. Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Mountain, Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Peak—I don't know where this place is, and the name is just a legendary name."
Qin Chuan was taken aback. Yes, just saying the name is useless; he doesn't even know where the characters are. He shook his head helplessly.
"Sir, you want to go to the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace?" City Lord Murong asked in surprise.
Qin Chuan nodded. Without useful information, there was nothing he could do but search slowly. He
had originally thought that coming to this Nine Heavens Land would make finding the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace easy, and he would naturally meet the people he wanted to see. Even if his strength wasn't great, he could develop it slowly.
But unexpectedly, coming here, in this vast world, was like finding a needle in a haystack. This was a bit of a blow to Qin Chuan.
This place is just too big; a person is less than a grain of sand in the desert. The Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace is just a legend; how is he supposed to find it now? It's a legendary existence.
This legend is a true legend, not something on a completely different level. It's just a story, a fictional account.
However, Qin Chuan knew one thing: Chu Shiqing and the others were definitely in the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace, and the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace wasn't a myth; it was a real place.
The reason they hadn't received any news was perhaps because they couldn't make contact. But this was someone at the War God Realm, someone even the War Gods themselves didn't know or had never heard of.
What did that mean? Surpassing the War God?
The War God Realm was no ordinary realm; it represented an incredibly long period of time. Some War Gods were all-powerful, their strength unimaginable.
But others might seem undeserving of their titles. That's the nature of the War God Realm—the differences were vast. Perhaps the War Gods in Taotie City were only the weakest.
Perhaps these War Gods, though reaching this level, were nothing more than ants in the eyes of other War Gods…
Qin Chuan's thoughts were complex, but only for a moment. He quickly recovered, and everyone stopped discussing these things.
A dreamless night!
The next day, Qin Chuan explored Taotie City, experiencing its local customs and culture, with Murong Baobao acting as his guide.
Qin Chuan didn't visit the Taotie Temple again, nor did he see the old monk again.
Some people are destined to be passersby in your life, and the old monk was one of them. Even though he had given Qin Chuan a significant opportunity and helped him considerably, a passerby is destined to be a passerby.
Everything here is just a passerby; barring unforeseen circumstances, there will likely be no further interaction or meeting, only remaining in memory, filling a small part of one's past.
Three days later, Qin Chuan bid farewell to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, finally seeing him off.
Qin Chuan knew that the City Lord's Mansion didn't actually want him to stay, and they knew he wouldn't. Everyone was very polite, and everyone knew the chances of meeting again were slim, but it was ultimately a good connection, so a good beginning should end well.
However, before leaving, the City Lord's Mansion still pointed Qin Chuan in the right direction: to the Imperial City.
Perhaps there he could find the information he needed.
The Imperial City!
This was the Great Wind Dynasty!
Taotie City is just one city in the Great Wind Dynasty, well, a relatively well-known one. Although not the most powerful city in the Great Wind Dynasty, it still enjoys considerable fame.
However, despite its fame, the Great Wind Dynasty has at least eighty or a hundred cities like Taotie City, demonstrating its power.
Heading east from here, passing through two prefectures and a dozen cities, you'll reach the royal city. That's the center, the place with connections to higher levels, and perhaps where you can find the information you need.
Wandering aimlessly, Qin Chuan felt quite relaxed. He didn't have anything urgent to do right now, and as for finding the Nine Heavens Mystic Goddess Palace, his heart had already sank.
It wasn't that he wasn't eager, but he couldn't muster the desire, and being eager wouldn't help. This matter required careful planning; it wasn't something you could find by rushing.
Forget about that for now. Just keep moving forward. Qin Chuan refused to believe he couldn't find it. If he couldn't find it, it was because his strength wasn't enough, his plane wasn't high enough.
As long as his abilities were sufficient, with his divine sense, he could find it without even deliberately searching.
The royal city!
"Let's go check out the royal city first. "
However, halfway there, Qin Chuan broke through, thanks to the opportunity he obtained in the Tower of Babel—the one where the rain and dew were distributed equally. He
reached the fifth level of the Void Realm!
When would he reach the War God Realm?
Qin Chuan smiled bitterly. That realm was still far away. Below the War God Realm, he was undoubtedly the strongest, and perhaps only this could bring him some joy.
If he could break through to the War God Realm, things would be different. He would be different from others; if he reached the War God Realm, his combat power would definitely be very strong. Qin Chuan was confident of this.
Having just reached the Void Realm, he could almost say he feared no one below the War God Realm—this was Qin Chuan's greatest strength.
Unfortunately , Qin
Chuan's realm advancement wasn't fast. Although the opportunities and many pills he received were much faster than his peers, compared to the resources and opportunities he consumed, his realm was still somewhat low. But there were advantages: a solid foundation. This was why Qin Chuan was invincible in the Void Realm as soon as he broke through.
At least for now, he hadn't encountered any tough nuts to crack in the Void Realm.
Unfortunately, the gap between the Void Realm and the War God Realm is too great. Even the weakest War God Realm cultivator is beyond Qin Chuan's current capabilities.
Oh, right, that pill...
the Purple Emperor Pill!
He hasn't taken it yet. It's a good thing. Thinking of this, Qin Chuan didn't want to delay; improving his strength was the most important thing.
He found a suitable place, atop a large mountain, summoned a demonic beast to protect him, and directly used the Purple Emperor Pill.
Normally, this could break through a minor realm and open a mysterious meridian.
Besides the known meridians, the human body has many unknown, even mysterious, meridians. Opening one can double the body's overall abilities.
This is the terrifying power of some mysterious meridians.
This is why the Purple Emperor Pill is so precious; its greatest value isn't raising one or two minor realms, but opening a mysterious meridian.
Of course, some unknown meridians that are opened might just be ordinary meridians, offering no significant boost, or even being useless.
However, the probability of obtaining a significant benefit is not low, so the value of the Purple Emperor Pill is immeasurable, and it is extremely difficult to obtain. One Purple Emperor Pill can be exchanged for a treasure.
After all, treasures are external possessions, but the boost from opening a meridian is a tangible increase in one's own strength. Considering all factors, becoming strong oneself is still the right path.
