After nearly half an hour of the spiritual energy clash between Wang Jian and the enigmatic Immortal Dominion's Spirit, a sudden surge of around hundreds of experts erupted from the Immortal Dominion. They swiftly closed in on Wang Jian's fleet of seven Wyverns.
Reacting swiftly, Wang Jian emerged from his carriage, which was being carried by the massive Wyvern.
"Halt! Why are you attacking us?" Wang Jian demanded.
"...Who are you? How dare you intrude upon the realm of our dominion? Do you possess the Command Seal that grants you permission to traverse our dominion's skies?" An irate expert retorted.
"Command Seal? What's that? And was I truly intruding? My apologies if my presence caused any disruption," Wang Jian replied with courtesy.
As the incensed expert appeared ready to reprimand Wang Jian further, a woman among them seemed to grasp the situation, and she chimed in, "...You lack knowledge of both Command Seals and the rules here. From whence have you journeyed?"n0velUsb.C0m
With a touch of pride, Wang Jian replied, "I come from the Everlasting Mystical Empire of the Southern Region."
"The Everlasting Mystical Empire of the Southern Region?!" The entire group of experts reacted with astonishment.
It was only natural, given that the Everlasting Mystical Empire had made ripples throughout the entire continent. This was primarily due to its effective handling of the relentless assaults by the Barbarian Race.
Such achievements had led other Empires in the Southern Region to align themselves with the Everlasting Mystical Empire, making it the leader of their coalition.
In many ways, the Everlasting Mystical Empire stood as a representative of the entire Southern Region.
"That's right. I am Wang Jian, a council member of the Empire. I've journeyed to the Central Region to explore historical sites and ruins, accompanied by my beloved companions," Wang Jian spoke with a composed demeanor.
As if on cue, Lady Zhuoran, Luo Qiu, Yao Niu, and Han Xifeng gracefully emerged from the carriage, adorned in elegant attire.
The men among the group couldn't help but gaze at the women with awe, their eyes filled with admiration. It was unsurprising, given that each of these four women possessed stunning beauty that was hard to ignore.
Conversely, the women in the group exchanged similar glances of interest as they sized up Wang Jian. It was only natural, considering Wang Jian's striking handsomeness, which had the power to captivate hearts with every subtle gesture he made.
"Ahem!" Wang Jian coughed out a bit.
This allowed everyone to get out of their muse as they stared back at Wang Jian.
The men in the group were feeling extremely jealous as they recalled that Wang Jian had called them as his beloved companions. This indicated that these women held a close relationship with him!
Meanwhile, the women felt as though this was only natural for a handsome man like Wang Jian to have four women as his beloved companions. In fact, considering how even those insignificant ugly mortals or humans held a harem of dozens of women, a handsome man like Wang Jian ought to exceed them considerably.
Moreover, if Wang Jian wanted, any one of these women would be ready to give herself away to him. This was how badly these women had been charmed by Wang Jian.
Finally, the angry man spoke aloud, "You have broken the rules of the Wind Cloud House. You will need to follow us to the Celestial Nexus Immortal Dominion so that we can report your transgression. If the Disciplinary Elder forgives you, then you can go on your way."
Wang Jian frowned upon hearing those words. He stared at the experts ahead of him and sensed that their aura was very powerful. There were nearly dozens of Emperor Realm experts with powerful aura and the rest were King Realm experts.
Moreover, at this moment, Wang Jian was experiencing suppression of the laws in the Central Continent. He felt that if he really fought against them, he would have to reveal his devil bloodline to them. And that wouldn't be ideal if he wanted to travel across the Central Region.
Moreover, it might be a good opportunity to learn more about this region.
Thus, Wang Jian spoke, "Please lead us. We will follow you."
Celestial Nexus Immortal Dominion!
Within the confines of the Celestial Nexus Immortal Dominion, three distinct domains exist, each tailored to the philosophies and practices of Wind Cloud House, Spirit Affinity Sect, and Heavenly Lotus Sect.
These domains are interconnected by the ethereal energies of the Immortal Dominions, fostering a delicate equilibrium that mirrors the alliance between the three sects.
Zephyr Zenith Terrace (Wind Cloud House): Perched upon the highest peaks of the Celestial Nexus Immortal Dominion, the Zephyr Zenith Terrace is a realm of perpetual motion and boundless freedom.
Skies adorned with ever-shifting clouds provide a backdrop for Wind Cloud House's disciples to cultivate their mastery over wind-based techniques.
The air is filled with a gentle yet invigorating breeze, enhancing the focus and clarity of those who train here.
Pagodas and pavilions of white jade are scattered across the terrace, offering sanctuaries for meditation and study.
The heart of the Zephyr Zenith Terrace is the Anemone Pavilion, where ancient scrolls detailing wind-crafting methods are meticulously preserved.
Ethereal Harmonia Grove (Spirit Affinity Sect): The heart of the Celestial Nexus Immortal Dominion resonates with the spiritual energies of the Ethereal Harmonia Grove.
Here, vibrant flora and luminous fauna coexist in perfect harmony, creating an ambiance of serenity and connection to the natural world.
Crystal-clear streams wind through groves of radiant trees, their leaves perpetually shimmering with an otherworldly glow.
Spirit Affinity Sect's disciples gather in the Tranquil Glade, a central clearing where they engage in meditative practices and channel the realm's innate spiritual energies.
An ancient tree known as the Whispering Elder stands as a testament to the sect's reverence for the interconnectedness of all life.
Heavenly Lotus Sanctuary (Heavenly Lotus Sect): The Heavenly Lotus Sanctuary is a place of mystique and elegance, embodying the Heavenly Lotus Sect's dedication to refinement and enlightenment.
Nestled within a secluded valley, the sanctuary is a symphony of blooming lotus flowers, their petals ranging in colors from ethereal whites to deep purples.
Ponds adorned with floating lotus blossoms mirror the sky above, creating an illusion of heaven meeting earth.
Heavenly Lotus Sect's disciples gather in the Lotus Pavilion, a structure of intricate beauty that serves as a center for scholarly pursuits and alchemical experiments.
The heart of the sanctuary is the Crystal Lotus Pool, said to grant profound insights to those who gaze into its depths.
Led by the Wind Cloud House guides, Wang Jian, accompanied by his group of women and the fleet of wyverns, arrived at the Zephyr Zenith Terrace, which belonged to the territory of the Wind Cloud House.
The wyverns were entrusted to the care of a beast-master, who pledged to provide them with nourishment and attention.
Meanwhile, Wang Jian and his women were guided toward the disciplinary pagoda, where a considerable line of people had already formed.
"Here, wait your turn," a member of the group that had accompanied Wang Jian thus far instructed before departing. It was evident that this individual was bypassing the line and heading straight for the pagoda.
Although this expert's queue-jumping was quite blatant, the others in line refrained from causing a commotion.
This indicated that the individual likely held a significant position within the sect. Judging by his age, attire, and demeanor, it was safe to assume he was an elder.
Nearby disciples couldn't help but cast curious glances in Wang Jian's direction.
Men's eyes were drawn to the four captivating women accompanying him, while women's gazes were fixated on Wang Jian himself.
Wang Jian's lips curled into a faint smile as he signaled toward a cluster of women who appeared to be disciples of the Wind Cloud House Sect.
Eagerly responding to his gesture, the women hastened their steps, their curiosity ignited by the presence of this unfamiliar and exceptionally handsome man.
Being called out to by such a charming individual naturally drew them toward him, eager to engage in conversation.
"Hey there, I'm Wang Jian," he introduced himself in a friendly manner, his smile putting them at ease. "I come from the Southern Region. This is my first time in the Central Region, and I'm curious about a few things. Would you mind if I asked you some questions?"
One of the women responded with enthusiasm, her eyes shining with excitement. "No worries at all! We'd be happy to share all we know about this region."
With their willingness to engage, Wang Jian delved into conversation, gathering valuable insights about the Central Region. The discussion covered the ten notable sects in the region and even touched upon the role of the Heavenly Court.
Armed with this newfound knowledge, Wang Jian gained a clearer understanding of the Central Region's impressive might, revealing a stark contrast compared to the Southern Region.
There was a total of four human Immortal Dominions within the entire Central Region. The one in which Wang Jian was standing inside was just one of them known as the Celestial Nexus Immortal Dominion!
And in contrast, it was a pity that the Southern Region had no human Immortal Dominion!
