Chapter 80 Clan Chief Tang Jian!
Chapter 80 Clan Chief Tang Jian!
The Thousand Rivers Abyss Clan!
Inside the inner city, thousands of soldiers from the Abyss Realm shouted loudly, their voices shaking the entire area.
The other experts also looked solemn.
"It is a good thing that another immortal clan has been added to the world. Someone, bring ten thousand spirit stones."
At this moment, Zhan Changfeng suddenly spoke.
Give a congratulatory gift!
As the border commander, he could ignore the fact that the Yuanjie Army had no real immortal status and were treated like slaves. But now that they had entered the ranks of the immortals, he naturally had to show his support and win their hearts.
"My Liuyun Mountain presents one hundred first-grade spiritual herbs and one second-grade spiritual herb!"
"The Sun Moon Sect presented three volumes of magical spells."
"Our Sword Sect presents one third-grade magic weapon, ten second-grade magic weapons, one hundred first-grade magic weapons, ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones, and ten second-grade spirit herbs!"
Others also spoke up, and among them, the gift given by the Sword Sect was the most extravagant!
A mere newly established fifth-rank immortal clan is nothing to them, but they all saw the potential in Li Lan, the founder of the Yuan Clan.
Such a genius deserves to be praised.
Even if they didn't intend to, since Commander Zhan Changfeng had given them a gift, they had to follow suit and show their appreciation.
For a moment, everyone in the room wore a complicated expression.
Although everyone could see that the gifts from the various powers were actually nothing special, the respect they showed was truly rare!
Thank you all!
On the Immortal Gate Platform, Li Lan and Li Yue had already come down. He smiled politely and accepted everything offered by the various forces!
Second-grade magic artifacts and spiritual herbs are nothing but junk to powerful forces like the Sun Moon Sect and the Sword Sect, but they are extremely important to a rising power like the Abyss Clan.
The Sword Sect, in particular, is truly impressive. With these things, the Abyss Clan can take its first step firmly!
"General Zhan, now that the Yuan Clan has just been established, please allow me to lead my men to the land of a thousand rivers to establish our family and career. I will then go to the border to serve the country in the future!"
Li Lan had no intention of staying at the border.
No one knew better than him just how many terrifying things were hidden in the black fog beyond the pass. The border was only able to hold out because many powerful beings were still lying in wait.
The border cannot be defended!
The most important thing is to leave this place as soon as possible, go to the Land of a Thousand Rivers to multiply and thrive, and at the same time, find spiritual objects and improve your strength.
Zhan Changfeng nodded and said, "Okay."
The Yuanjie Army was dispensable to the border, so he naturally agreed. He added, "The land of Qianchuan is bitterly cold. If you wish, you can go to Zhanzhou. Someone will give you fertile land for you to multiply."
Zhanzhou is the land of the Zhan clan.
Everyone was awestruck. The Zhan Clan was such a behemoth that not even a fourth-rank immortal clan, let alone a small fifth-rank immortal clan, was qualified to gain their favor. Yet now they were extending an olive branch to Li Lan.
Other factions were all marveling at how talented Tang Jian was; if he were to receive training from the Zhan family, he would likely soar to great heights.
But Li Lan shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness, General. However, the Yuan clan is newly established and its members are weak. I am unworthy of such a great favor. I appreciate your kindness, General!"
Refuse!
If he agrees, the resources provided by the Zhan family will definitely solve his immediate problem, and his cultivation speed will likely be very fast for a period of time.
However, the secret he carries may also be discovered.
His True Dragon Technique, which he had cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage, the cat from the source, the remains of the saints, the Dharma of the Bright Venerable... If any one of these things were to become known, it would cause a huge uproar, and Li Lan would not be able to protect them.
Therefore, we must stay away from powerful forces!
"Fine."
Zhan Changfeng did not force the issue.
Someone like him has seen far too many geniuses.
"Young friend, why don't you go to Ten Thousand Swords Continent?"
Jianbo, Li Yue's protector, smiled and said, "You are Li Yue's people, so it is only right for you to go to Wanjianzhou."
Li Lan also refused, saying, "My Yuan Clan's Holy Maiden, Miss Li Yue, is already disturbing your sect by cultivating here. How could I dare to cause any more trouble?"
That's also not allowed!
Seeing this, the other forces all shook their heads.
Li Lan is too inflexible. You should know that if the Yuan Clan had the Zhan Clan or the Sword Sect as their backers, their development would be much smoother.
But this also caused them to give up on recruiting.
Thank you all!
Li Lan bowed, then turned to look at Li Yue and said:
"Holy Maiden, and what about you?"
Li Yue smiled and said, "I have violated military regulations and need to be imprisoned here for three years. I would like to trouble the clan chief to take people there first. In the future, Li Yue will naturally return to the clan."
In her heart, she had already considered herself a member of the Yuan Clan.
Li Lan nodded: "Then we'll take our leave now—"
He left with Liu Ziwen and the others.
Everyone watched them leave, but among the crowd, Qin Hongyun, dressed in red, had a stunningly beautiful face that was as cold as frost!
She gripped the sword tightly in her hand!
She thought that breaking through the immortal barrier would severely injure Li Yue, but unexpectedly, Tang Jian appeared out of nowhere and ruined all her plans...
"What a formidable Yuan Clan..."
She said coldly in a low voice, a murderous glint in her eyes: "Do you really think that by establishing an immortal clan, you can remain unscathed?"
...
Li Lan and the others left via a "teleportation array" on the Great Wall at the border.
This place is tens of thousands of miles away from the land of a thousand rivers. If we rely entirely on manpower, it would probably take several years just to get there!
After all, among the Yuan Clan, the strongest was only Li Lan, who was at the Foundation Establishment stage.
A flash of light, followed by a spatial shift, and the group fell out of the space, with many vomiting violently.
Li Lan glanced around and realized that "Tianfeng City" should be right in front of him.
The Yuan Clan's fiefdom, the Thousand Rivers Land, was desolate and uninhabited, so they could only reach the nearest city and then proceed on foot.
"You must be from the Yuan Clan, right? May I ask who your clan leader is?"
Outside the teleportation array, someone was already waiting. A middle-aged man in a wide-sleeved robe walked over and said with a smile:
"I am Xu Yan, the city lord of Tianfeng City. I am overjoyed to learn that the land of Qianchuan has been claimed. From now on, our Tianzhen Prefecture will be lively!"
The words were very polite.
Li Lan stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Lord Xu. I am Tang Jian, the patriarch of the Yuan Clan!"
He already had a certain understanding of the power situation around the Thousand Rivers Land. The Xu Clan was the largest immortal clan in Tianzhen Prefecture—a fourth-class immortal clan!
A fourth-class immortal clan means that there is a seventh-tribulation realm expert in the clan. Such forces are as numerous as hairs on a cow in the vast immortal realm and are nothing special, but for the Yuan clan now... it can be said to be a behemoth!
Xu Yan glanced at Li Lan and was immediately surprised, "You... are the clan leader?"
The clan leader is so young? And he's only a Foundation Establishment cultivator!
When did the Immortal Clan become so reckless?
Even the lowest-ranking fifth-grade immortal race should have a Dao Integration stage expert in charge, but after glancing at the people in front of him, he couldn't even find a second one in the Foundation Establishment stage!
They're a complete bunch of rotten fish and shrimp!
Li Lan said calmly, "Our clan's Holy Maiden is cultivating within the Sword Sect. In addition, several elders are protecting her. Therefore, I was ordered to bring people to the fiefdom first."
Let's get a tiger skin first.
After all, the Yuan Clan is indeed too weak now, yet it occupies a spiritual land, which may attract envious forces.
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan suddenly realized why!
It turns out they have the Sword Sect as their backing.
"Very well, please! How about you all rest in the city for a few days? I'll host a banquet to welcome you and wash away the dust of your journey..."
"No need. Our people are eager to return to their homeland. We appreciate the city lord's kind offer!"
Li Lan politely declined, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then left with her entourage.
After they left.
"Lord of the City, this... is a member of the Immortal Clan?"
Someone next to Xu Yan couldn't help but speak up.
This is so pathetic and impoverished.
"The Land of a Thousand Rivers is extremely important to us. Originally, we could have obtained it if we had just had one more expert from our forces who had passed the Bloodline Immortal Barrier, but now it has been occupied by them..."
The man was indignant: "Are we just going to hand it over to them like this?"
The celestial veins and spiritual lands, apart from those already occupied by powerful forces, all belong to the Celestial Court under the rule of the Supreme Emperor, and are granted to the world through the Bloodline Celestial Gate.
While under the control of the Celestial Court, no force, large or small, dared to covet it. But once it was divided among the various factions, it no longer belonged to the Celestial Court. Even if it changed hands, the Celestial Court would not interfere...
Mergers and plunders happen all the time!
Even in the immortal realm, the law of the jungle prevails, and the strong are respected!
"Send someone over there to find out what kind of background this Yuan Clan has, and how much influence their so-called Holy Maiden holds within the Sword Sect!"
Xu Yan said it casually.
The person next to them quickly left.
……
Tianfeng City is very lively. Its area is more than ten times larger than the former Dali Kingdom, and its population is a million. It can be considered the core of Tianzhen Prefecture.
Cultivators come and go, shops abound, and the streets are bustling with activity.
Liu Ziwen and the others had been left in the harsh borderlands ever since they entered the Immortal Realm, experiencing life and death. Now, they were finally witnessing the peaceful scene that belonged to the Immortal Realm, and everyone was filled with emotion.
Who would have thought that one day they would be able to leave the border and take root in the immortal realm!
"Extremely expensive!"
As they passed many shops, the Yuan Clan members all looked on with envy.
There are so many magical artifacts, spiritual medicines, and other cultivation resources available, but they all require spirit stones!
Spirit stones are the universal currency in the immortal realm. They are rich in spiritual energy and can be used for cultivation. It is said that once one reaches the immortal level, spirit stones are no longer useful and one needs something of a higher level. However, the Abyss Clan has not yet come into contact with them.
"A second-grade magic weapon costs four or five hundred spirit stones!"
"Even second-grade pills are expensive; one pill costs two or three hundred!"
Currently, the entire Yuan Clan's "assets" total only 30,000 spirit stones!
This is the power of an entire clan! Perhaps, a single cultivator with higher cultivation in the city could be worth an entire Abyss Clan member...
"Go to the land of a thousand rivers and develop it!"
"Yes, with a land of a thousand rivers, we can quickly obtain all kinds of cultivation resources!"
While everyone felt heartbroken, they were also filled with fighting spirit.
The land of a thousand rivers also has spiritual veins, and where there are spiritual veins, there will be associated spiritual minerals, spiritual stones, and so on!
They left the city and hurried towards the land of a thousand rivers.
