Xu Qing walked out and suppressed the surroundings. He immediately became the center of attention just by standing there.
This elegance that once belonged to Saintly Star was now enhanced in Xu Qing's body.
This was also because of his peerless appearance. He was like a rising star, causing the disciples of the Seven Sects Alliance on the shore to have no choice but to lower their heads. The female disciples among them revealed strange gazes.
In the sky, Xue Lianzi watched this scene with satisfaction. Beside him, Old Master Seventh also had a smile on his face. As for the Spirit Dawn Valley and the Heavenly Treasure Sect's ancestors opposite them, they smiled and shook their heads as their gazes swept past Xu Qing.
"That's enough."
"Juniors, you have quite some vitality. You can't be like us." Xue Lianzi laughed and flew into the distance with the two good friends who came to welcome him.
After the older generation in the sky left, the atmosphere on the shore became even more intense. However, Xu Qing's existence completely suppressed the atmosphere, causing the male disciples in the Seven Sects Alliance to sigh in their minds.
Compared to the Seven Blood Eyes, the atmosphere here in the Seven Sects Alliance was very open. Hence, the heat emitted by the eyes of those female disciples made Xu Qing a little unaccustomed.
He didn't like being so ostentatious.
Hence, after suppressing the scene, he dispersed the colorful clothes on his body and stepped into the flying ship that the Seven Sects Alliance used to receive guests.
Very soon, the captain also ran over.
Third Senior Brother clicked his tongue when he arrived at the flying ship.
"Junior Brother, not bad. I'll teach you a few moves later. You will definitely have incomparable appeal among the female disciples in the Alliance."
Xu Qing glanced at his third senior brother but didn't reply. The captain took an apple and sneered after taking a bite.
"Old Third, you pervert. You need to stop it, Little Qing is the same as me. He walks the cold path. Your moves are useless."
Third Senior Brother smiled. He sat on the flying ship and looked around, his eyes filled with emotions.
Just like that, the Seven Blood Eyes' group traversed the city under the escort of the welcoming disciples in the surroundings. On the way, the feeling of a foreign region gushed into Xu Qing's heart.
Although the buildings here had the style of Purple Earth, there were many small domed buildings mixed in. The color was mainly white, so they gave off a very tidy feeling.
The vegetation in the city also looked different from the Nanhuang Continent. The trees had few leaves and the trunks were very thick. There were also some that emitted a light fragrance. When they passed by, their bodies would naturally absorb some of that fragrance.
Xu Qing took a sniff and confirmed that this wasn't poison but a natural medicinal catalyst. It could slowly strengthen the physique and increase the circulation of cultivation by a little.
On their way, Xu Qing also saw small rivers winding in the city. The river water emitted dense spiritual energy that nourished all living beings.
The temperature of the place where the Alliance was located was also different from the Seven Blood Eyes. It was warmer and the people in the city wore lighter clothes.
Looking at the complexion of their faces that were filled with curiosity, few looked malnourished. Most of them had hope and light in their eyes. The temperament of the upper sect was displayed in every detail.
This place was only a corner of the Alliance's city. The area was so large that Xu Qing couldn't see the end even when he looked from the flying ship.
This was a majestic city.
Not long later, everyone from the Seven Blood Eyes arrived at the designated place. This was one of the places where the Seven Sects Alliance entertained guests.
It was a residence that occupied a very large area. There were dozens of pavilions of various sizes inside. Every one of them was carved with jade bricks and looked luxurious.
The Seven Sects Alliance's disciples bade farewell after reaching here. After the Seven Blood Eyes' members settled down, they left one after another. This was their first time in the Alliance and they were extremely curious, so they wanted to take a look around.
As for the old fellows, they were catching up. The negotiation and discussions would be carried out tomorrow.
The highnesses of the various peaks dispersed. Xu Qing had just finished checking the house he had been arranged to stay in and set up some array formations he carried with him. He also scattered some poison powder. Shortly after, the captain and Third Senior Brother looked for him.
"Junior Brother, come, come, come. Senior Brother will bring you for a stroll." The captain winked at Xu Qing, looking like he was bringing him to see the world.
Xu Qing looked over suspiciously.
At the side, Third Senior Brother also winked at Xu Qing and smiled.
"Just now, I asked some old friends in the Alliance. They strongly recommend the immortal pool here."
"Before the Immortal Enrichment River flowed into the Alliance, there were very few immortal pools in the Alliance. Now that the river has arrived, many immortal pools have opened. Let's soak in them."
There was a glint in the captain's eyes. After looking around, he whispered to Xu Qing and Old Third.
"I heard that there are some immortal pools which allow mixed-gender baths. That is too much. How can such a thing be carried out so openly? Let's go over quietly and criticize!"
Xu Qing originally didn't want to go. He wanted to cultivate but he couldn't withstand the persuasion of the captain and Third Senior Brother. In the end, he reluctantly nodded.
The three of them changed their clothes and walked on the streets of Alliance City.
There were people coming and going from the shops in the surroundings and there was an endless stream of pedestrians on the streets. The bustling scene formed by the sounds from the people and accents that were slightly different from the Nanhuang Continent caused the exotic feeling to surge over again.
The captain even bought a lot of fruits that he had never seen before from a fruit stall. He threw one to Xu Qing and Old Third each. The three of them ate as they looked around.
"This place is too big. It's more than ten times larger than our Seven Blood Eyes' main city. Old Third, you're from the Wanggu Continent. You should be familiar with this place, right?"
Xu Qing looked at his surroundings and sighed with emotion.
"Actually, there's not just one main city in the Alliance. This is a super majestic city formed by the connection of the seven sects' main cities," Third Senior Brother said with a smile.
"The area we're in is only the city area of the Heavenly Treasure Sect."
"And outside this vast and majestic city, there are countless small countries and 130 sects that rely on the Alliance."
"This time, one of the many topics of our Seven Blood Eyes' discussion is to choose a location to integrate into this city and become a part of this majestic city after we migrate over."
Third Senior Brother introduced as he walked.
Xu Qing listened attentively while the captain looked left and right, seemingly looking for something.
"The last special point of the Seven Sects Alliance isn't just the combination of seven cities but the sect grounds of the seven sects are also here. Moreover, their cultivation arts, foundations, lands of fortune are open to the Alliance."
Third Senior Brother pointed at the huge white mountain in the distance.
"That's the sect ground of the Heavenly Treasure Sect."
"Any sect can go there to learn and comprehend. However, it's not free. The fee is extremely high."
"Our Seven Blood Eyes also has them. The homeland of the Sea Corpse Race can be considered our Seven Blood Eyes' land of fortune too."
Just like that, as Third Senior Brother introduced various things, the three of them slowly arrived at the center of the city. There was a very luxurious building built beside a river.
This building was in the shape of a pentagon and occupied a large area. One could see the river water being drawn in. After it was treated, it was divided into many streams that flowed into different areas of the building.
This place was clearly lively. There were many male and female disciples entering and exiting, and their clothes were all different. Clearly, there were cultivators from all the sects in the Alliance. Not only were there disciples from the seven sects, but there were also a large number of disciples from the 130 sects outside.
"It's here." The captain's eyes lit up as he pulled Xu Qing and Old Third in. Old Third took the initiative to pay some fees and very soon, the three of them were brought to a huge pool.
Fog lingered in the pool and one could faintly see scarcely-dressed male and female cultivators in the pool. There weren't many of them. Some were whispering and some were cultivating with their eyes closed.
Vision wasn't very clear in this fog.
After arriving here, Xu Qing immediately sensed that the spiritual energy in the pool was dense and contained a sense of purity. There were actually no anomalous substances in it.
If a cultivator soaked in it, they would definitely be able to cleanse the anomalous substances in their bodies as they used their breathing technique.
Although he didn't have any anomalous substances, he would be able to cultivate twice as fast here.
"As expected, it's a mixed bath." The captain coughed and immediately took off his clothes. He only wore a simple shirt and walked into the pool. Third Senior Brother was the same. After some hesitation, Xu Qing decided to take off his coat as well. After stepping into the pool, he found a place and sat down cross-legged.
The water temperature was moderate. After soaking his entire body, a comfortable feeling filled his heart. Spiritual energy also flowed into his body through the pores on his body, causing Xu Qing's cultivation to slowly circulate at this moment.
The three of them were in a corner and had put on some disguise, pretending to be Alliance cultivators, so it was difficult for outsiders to notice them.
Just like that, time slowly passed. New cultivators arrived in the pool and some left.
Two hours later, as though something major had happened in the outside world, the cultivators of the Seven Sects Alliance in the pool started discussing.
"Is the Seven Blood Eyes that powerful?!"
"I just heard the news. Earlier, the eldest highness of the Third Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes challenged the heaven's chosens of the Bizarre Hunting Sect and fought three people in a row, defeating two of them. He was on par with Chen Yunhua, who is as famous as Sima Ling. Sima Ling avoided the battle!"
"It's the same in the Great Expansion Dao Palace. The eldest highness of the Fourth Peak of the Seven Blood Eyes is currently challenging them. I heard that the battle there is extremely intense. He even said that he would fight everyone below the Golden Core."
"Back then, when the heaven's chosens of our Alliance went to the Seven Blood Eyes, I heard that they had continuous victories. Now, it seems that the Seven Blood Eyes have hidden themselves too deeply. They are now establishing their might."
Hearing these discussions, Xu Qing and the other two looked at each other. The captain suddenly spoke in a low voice.
"This is an opportunity to make a fortune." After saying that, he looked at Xu Qing.
"Eldest Senior Brother is right. We should be able to return with a full harvest after handling this matter." Third Senior Brother's expression was gentle as he also looked at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing fell silent and spoke after a long time.
"How do we split the gains?"
