Chapter 377 Taking too big a step will tear your crotch.
"Well, we'll discuss that later."
The grandmaster pretended to be profound and did not answer whether to go or not, but instead asked another question.
"Tell me first, is this news reliable? Where is Lungmen? When will it appear?"
Long Jiaoyu looked at her grandmaster, hesitant to speak, opening her mouth several times but failing to utter a single word.
"What's wrong? Is there something you can't say? Or are you worried about something?" the grandmaster asked.
After much deliberation, Long Jiaoyu mustered her courage and asked, "If I take you there, will you allow me to leap?"
Ok?
The grandmaster was puzzled. "Of course you are allowed. Why do you say that? I don't consider myself that domineering or unreasonable. Go ahead and jump. If you jump successfully, I'll celebrate with you. If you don't jump, it's because you're not strong enough or you're unlucky. You can try again next time!"
Long Jiaoyu pouted...
Next time, it's uncertain whether you'll even survive!
However, the old Taoist priest still had some conscience, so he asked another tricky question.
"If, and I mean if, I were to leap over the Dragon Gate and become a little dragon, and the contract became invalid, would you set me free?"
"Of course, forced love is never sweet."
The grandmaster agreed without hesitation.
If you were to ask the Grandmaster if he was content with this, his answer would be that there was no question of being content or not. It was the will of Heaven, and it could not be forced. He had no attachment to anything in the world and followed his heart and destiny in everything!
"Okay, you're straightforward, so I'll be straightforward too."
Long Jiaoyu adjusted her posture, finding a comfortable spot to settle down, and began to speak eloquently in front of her grandmaster, "This news, well, it started like this..."
So, Long Jiaoyu began to recount its journey, describing which islands it passed by, which monsters and cultivators it encountered, the rumors it heard, and the several storms it encountered at sea—leaving no stone unturned.
Finally, regarding the source of the news, it had already confirmed it with the cultivators and demons it encountered on the road, and the news was indeed true. That's why it rushed back to this sea area, wanting the old turtle to go with it. Unexpectedly, the old turtle harbored such deep resentment towards it, and they started fighting at the slightest disagreement. Before it could even say a few words, the old turtle became enraged, and that's how these events unfolded.
"So, in the end you're going to blame me?" the old turtle said unhappily, sticking out its neck.
"Uncle Turtle, calm down. Long Jiaoyu is just stating the facts and doesn't mean to blame you. Don't take it to heart."
The Grandmaster was an expert at mediating disputes. He thought to himself that the most important task at present was to figure out what was going on at Longmen. He decided to put personal grudges aside for now. The Grandmaster then asked again.
"Is Donglinhai Canyon Bend far from here? How many days does it take to get there? Is it feasible?"
Long Jiaoyu considered for a moment and replied, "It's not very far. It's at the northernmost part of this mountain range, or strictly speaking, it's not even outside this mountain range. If I swim there at full speed, it will take me two days. I can definitely make it within two days."
"Do many demonic beasts know about this news? Will other cultivators also go?" Wenwen asked.
"Logically speaking, the appearance of the Dragon Gate in this section of the sea is just an opportunity for the monsters living nearby. Perhaps some cultivators will miss the opportunities in the previous sections of the sea and come here for this last section, just like you."
Long Jiaoyu carefully chose her words and spoke cautiously before repeating herself.
"As far as I know, other sea areas start earlier and end later than this one. The reason why our section of the sea starts later and ends earlier is because the spiritual energy of the surrounding mountains is not rich enough."
Is the spiritual energy of the Yanqian Mountains still not rich enough?
The group looked at each other, wondering what constituted "intense" or "rich." Goodness, they were ignorant; they didn't know.
Out of curiosity, Wen Chengbin asked, "We're only showing one hour here, how long do other places show?"
Wen Chengjian also asked, "How long does it take to reach the nearest sea area to us?"
Ye Jingchuan quickly added, "Hey, just tell us how long the sea with the most abundant spiritual energy will last. Tell us so we can see it and be envious."
The dragon-fish sensed the group's keen interest in the Dragon Gate, as if they had found kindred spirits. It replied enthusiastically, "The closest sea area to us shows six hours, but the sea with the most concentrated spiritual energy is said to last for more than a month."
Wow! ! !
It's truly enviable. Not only is the spiritual energy abundant, but the opportunities also last a long time. Indeed, places with good conditions have more resources.
These words made the group sigh inwardly.
Wenwen had to pinch her thigh to keep herself calm.
She knew that food should be eaten one bite at a time, and a road should be walked one step at a time. Eating too fast would cause choking, and taking too big a step would cause a groin injury.
"Uncle Long, do you know the name of the closest sea area to us? What cities are around there? Where do cultivators usually gather?"
Taking advantage of her young age, Wenwen put on a cute smile and acted adorable, blurting out the respectful address.
And you know what? This title alone won over Long Jiaoyu instantly.
"Our area is called Donglin Sea, the nearest sea is called Qiwa Sea, and further down is Ciyan Sea. I haven't been to anything too far. Around Ciyan Sea are Lanyue City, Xingyu City, and Qingfeng City. And..."
"What else?" The old tortoise listened with great interest and asked impatiently.
At this moment, it was very envious of the dragon fish for having been to so many places. This lousy fish had seen the outside world, which made it truly enviable and jealous. Before it knew it, it had shown its weakness.
Long Jiaoyu merely glanced at it indifferently, not taking it to heart, and continued, "I heard that the sea with the most abundant spiritual energy belongs to the Yuanling Continent, and I also heard..."
"Stop, stop, stop! Don't listen to that yet."
The grandmaster hurriedly interrupted Long Jiaoyu and asked, "Let me ask you first, is Yuanling Continent considered part of the Immortal Realm?"
Long Jiaoyu actually rolled her eyes at her grandmaster and said with a sneer, "What do you mean by 'calculate'? That's the Immortal Realm, the Immortal Realm, no doubt! But that place is too far away. To get there, you not only have to cross mountains and valleys, but also fly over the Tianshan Mountains for thousands of miles."
"Huh? That far?"
Wenwen and her grandmaster asked in unison.
The old man and the young man exchanged a glance, then turned to look at Long Jiaoyu, waiting for its answer.
As for what her grandmaster was thinking, Wenwen had no idea.
However, she wondered why her grandmaster was so fixated on the Yuanling Continent. Why would the Celestial Master mention this place? Could there be something going on? Could it be related to the Celestial Master? If so, what could it be?
Wenwen was filled with suspicion and curiosity.
Since her master didn't mention it, she could only remain still.
"It's far, very far. But even though it's far, many cultivators still travel thousands of miles to Yuanling Continent. Not only is the spiritual energy there abundant, but there are also many opportunities. Look, the time displayed at Longmen is hundreds of times that of here."
Long Jiaoyu became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, and her words inspired envy and longing in others.
Especially the boys, their starry eyes were practically glued to Long Jiaoyu.
"Hey, hey, hey, you guys wake up! Don't just see the thief eating meat but not the thief getting beaten."
The master reminded the few teenagers who were lost in their fantasies.
Wenwen shook off the random thoughts in her head and said.
"Uncle Long, let's focus on the present first. Let's talk about how to find the Dragon Gate. That's the most important thing right now."
"Yes, yes, how do we get there? When do we leave?"
