This was the 20th-day since their arrival into Eastern Thunder World. They did not realize that the big Transmitting Formation that they were trying to find was actually in Eastern Thunder World. Zhou Bao also did not dare to use his Divine Awareness skill to scan the macro world. Although doing so would enable him to find the Transmitting Formation in the shortest time possible, it would also lead to him being detected by the practitioners in Eastern Thunder World instantly. This was not the tiny planet that Star Palace was in, where there were only two Human Immortals of Marquis Level. This was Eastern Thunder World, where even though there were not many practitioners with cultivation above his, there were still quite a number of them.

“So what do you think we should do now?”

“What else can we do, the Transmitting Formation must be in Eastern Thunder Sect’s hands. To enter the Transmitting Formation, we must sneak into Eastern Thunder Sect. You cannot keep on pretending to be part of the common people; you have to interact with the practitioners there. That is the only way to find where the Transmitting Formation is at. If you continue to run around and poke your nose into others’ business, when will you ever find out where it is?”

“Hey, if I was told earlier about how troublesome this will be, I wouldn’t be in this shitty Easternmost Land but somewhere else instead!”

“Don’t think so highly of yourself; the space in Easternmost Land is naturally strong. The other places may not be so strong, but they would not definitely be like the hollow surrounding Heaven Realm World and allowing you such free access. Star Areas like this, especially those surrounding macro worlds, have strong spatial inhibitions. The space rigidness there cannot be worse than here! So don’t think that your Supreme Fairy Weapon can allow you to run around easily and travel as fast as before, that is impossible!” The little doll continued, “The stronger the Star Area, the more spatial inhibitions there are in place. Back in those days, the space surrounding Heaven Realm World was like a thousand-year-old iceberg. Even a Supreme Fairy Weapon can’t open it! Although other macro worlds and Star Areas may not be as tough as this, it is still an extremely difficult feat to open the space and yet not cause undue alarm to the people. Hence, you’ll face the same circumstances even if you go to other Star Areas!”

“Does this mean I can only consider Eastern Thunder Sect?”

“That depends on how you see it. If you want to waste your time, you can leave this place anytime. At the end of the day, you only need to snatch a Highest Heaven Celestial Device and then leave this Star Area for another. It will only take you a few years and since you won’t be dying anytime soon, it’s workable!” The little doll seemed very indifferent, but his words made Zhou Bao very angry.

If he wanted to find out where the big Transmitting Formation was at, he had to think of a way to interact with the practitioners in Eastern Thunder World. However, he could not be bothered to come up with a plan. In the next three days, he worked swiftly and managed to get his hands on a few Genuine Immortals. Coincidentally, one of them was from Eastern Thunder Sect and was on a learning journey. Zhou Bao managed to sniff out the location of the big Transmitting Formation from him. At the same time, he also understood that it was basically impossible to launch it secretly.

That was because the big Transmitting Formation was unlike the small ones in the exits surrounding the Eastern Thunder macro world. To launch this kind of Transmitting Formation that could transport over half a Star Area in the Easternmost Land, would require lots of time and also use up a vast amount of Spiritual Stones. A normal Transmitting Formation only required six to seven Low Grade Spiritual Stones for it to be launched. The Easternmost Land was a little special. For example, to transport one from the exit of Eastern Thunder World ,10 Upper Grade Spiritual Stones was required. That was already the minimum requirement, let alone launching a big Transmitting Formation.

In Eastern Thunder Sect, there was not just one Transmitting Formation but three of them. The biggest one was in Eastern Thunder Sect and could communicate with 18 other identical big Transmitting Formations in this part of the Star Area. At the same time, it could also communicate with a giant Transmitting Formation in the same Star Area. The other two formations were located in the first dynasty of Eastern Thunder World, the Qing Dynasty, as well as in the Boundless Sand Sea of Eastern Thunder Extreme Land. The Boundless Sand Sea was a piece of extreme land in Eastern Thunder World. The Transmitting Formation there had been left unused for many years. As for the one in Eastern Thunder Sect, it was kept under wraps and strict control. Common people could not even enter the sect, how would they ever have the opportunity to use it?

Hence, the only Transmitting Formation that Zhou Bao could use was the one in the Qing Dynasty.

As a matter of fact, it was the one that was frequently used in Eastern Thunder World. It was also the only public giant Transmitting Formation in the world. However, it being public did not mean that anyone was allowed to use it.

This Transmitting Formation was mainly for the usage of each sect in Eastern Thunder World, or for other strong dynasties. The Qing Dynasty was the first dynasty of Eastern Thunder World, but its world was simply too big. It did not possess a Sea Area as vast as that in Heaven Realm World. The Qing Dynasty was crowned the number one dynasty, but the area of control it had was about a tenth of Eastern Thunder World. It was already as large as it could get. Apart from the Qing Dynasty, there were dozens of other big and small dynasties and sects in Eastern Thunder World. This big Transmitting Formation controlled by the Qing Dynasty catered mainly to these groups.

This Transmitting Formation could transport to seven spots in the Star Area. Three of these spots were located at the most dangerous area of the Star Area. This place was also where various big sects and dynasties would conduct tests for their disciples. Since the Transmitting Formation used up so many resources, it was only opened once every 50 years. By the time it opened, all eligible disciples would then enter the formation and be transported to a distant Star Area to undergo training for 50 years.

Coincidentally, three months later, the Transmitting Formation was set to open up again. Now, all sects and dynasties were sending their elite disciples to Shengjing in Qing Dynasty.

Qing Dynasty, Shengjing?! God damn it, you’re not joking right?” When Zhou Bao first heard these two names, he could not help but curse at the heavens. It was sad enough to know that there existed a dynasty that gave itself such a tragic name. But what was even more sorrowful was that the Emperor, who was the Human Emperor of Eastern Thunder World, was Emperor Kang.

“Could Kang the Pocked have traveled through time?”

After hearing this information, Zhou Bao laughed bitterly, “Easternmost Land, more like the Easternmost dynasty! But that’s fine, I only have to wait for three months. After three months, I can enter that god-damned Transmitting Formation!”

“Those who can enter are the elite of all sects and dynasties. Are you prepared to enter using the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill or will you take on someone else’s identity?”

“It would be good if I can use the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill as that would save me a lot of trouble. However, the Qing Dynasty is so strict about the Transmitting Formation and there’s also a limit on who can enter it. My Snake-like Breath Holding Skill may not work. Hence, I can only create a fake identity!”

The little doll laughed, “Then what will you do?”

“Very simple. Although those that can enter are all elite disciples of sects and dynasties, I’ll pass on those from the dynasties. I can’t afford to tangle with bad luck. But among those from the sects, there should be some people that have identities suitable for me. I’ll just borrow theirs to save myself the trouble!”

“This is indeed a good plan, but the guy whose identity you’ll be using cannot be from those big sects, so as to prevent getting into trouble again!”

“I am aware of what I have to do in this kind of situation. I will not cause any trouble for myself. Let’s go to Shengjing first. All the elite disciples are now heading there. It shouldn’t be a problem to find one or two scapegoats.”

Shengjing was the biggest city in Eastern Thunder World. It was said that there existed a bigger city called Thunder Capital, but only a few had ever seen it before.

The size and glory of Shengjing City was beyond Zhou Bao’s expectations. Zhou Bao had seen many modern cities and architecture in his previous life. In this life, he became an extremely strong practitioner. He saw the capital city of Jin and also Grand Divine Wind Palace. But now that he had seen this Shengjing City, he could not help but be awed by its majesty. The city walls were very high. Zhou Bao frowned as he looked up.

“This Kang the Pocked must have a faulty brain, why on earth did he build such a high city wall? Is he trying to copy the Hongwu Emperor’s high fortifications? Damn it, there are immortals in this world, even if you build the walls into the clouds, you still can’t block them!” Zhou Bao grumbled as he entered Shengjing City with the surging crowd.

As the number one big city of Eastern Thunder World, Shengjing City was as grand as it could be. Eastern Thunder World was where practitioners and common people mingled with each other, so there were not many area restrictions. After reaching Level Seven in cultivation, the practitioners could use their Gang Qi to fly in the sky. As the number one city of Eastern Thunder World, Shengjing naturally needed to have rules to keep things in order. Hence, strong air-restriction magic formations were set up in Shengjing and the 1000-mile radius around it. Only some specialized Highest Heaven Celestial Devices were allowed to continue flying in the sky. Other practitioners below the rank of a Human Immortal could not escape from these magic formations. Human Immortals were allowed to fly within the 1000-mile radius. However, while doing so, they would incur a raging wave of pneuma, which would hinder them. Only those at the level of Immortals and above could fly freely and not face any obstacles.

No matter what their backgrounds were, these disciples were not that stupid to stir up any trouble in this once-every-50-years situation and cause the Qing Dynasty to be unhappy.

Everyone kept a low profile as they entered Shengjing City. No matter what their background was, there was no display of extravagance.

“Guys, look, its Zhao Wuji, the young suzerain of Dong Tian Sect! Goodfella, his clothes are so simple today and he didn’t even bring a servant!”

“Hey, are you sure? Is that really Zhao Wuji! His sect is the biggest in Xuan state and wasn’t it rumored that he was always extravagant? He needed 18 dragon-house carriages when he went out. The servants he brought along were all Genuine Immortals. Look at his blue robe, that’s so shabby, it can’t be him!”

“What do you think, this is Shengjing City, who would dare to stir up shit here!” Another person laughed coldly, “Only idiots would talk about extravagance in Shengjing City!”
