Taking a closer look, they saw that the huge object was a flying palace.
Each side of the flying palace was nearly a thousand meters long, and the building was more than five hundred meters tall. There was a three-story watchtower on each of the four corners. It was made of black bricks, golden tiles, and jade stage copper pillars. There was a dense colorful aura around it.
“It’s the sect’s Tianshu Flying Palace!”
Xie Jingsheng looked surprised.
The other disciples had similar expressions.
Everyone was shocked by the enormous flying palace.
Lin Shen was no exception.
It was hard to imagine how much manpower and material resources were needed to create such a thing.
“Although there are no spaceships or starships in the world of cultivators, this Tianshu Flying Palace isn’t much different,” Lin Shen sighed inwardly.
Unlike the pagoda that the disciples were currently in, the Tianshu Flying Palace in front of them not only had many array formations and restrictions, but it was also impregnable. It also had powerful offensive capabilities. It was a true weapon of war!
Furthermore, there were pavilions, corridors, ponds, and gardens in it. Even if there were a thousand people living inside, it would not be crowded. In terms of the living environment, it far exceeded the pagoda.
Under the surprised gazes of many disciples, the Tianshu Flying Palace flew over the pagoda without stopping and toward the depths of the mountain range.
That was where the Tiger Tribe’s lair was!
“The real war is about to begin!” Xie Jingsheng whispered.
Lin Shen heard this clearly and nodded in agreement.
Although they had been fighting fiercely for the past few days, it was nothing compared to the battle between the Nine Suns Sect and the Tiger Tribe!
The ones who would decide the outcome of a war would always be those high and mighty cultivator masters.
They were just scavengers who helped the sect sweep away the minions along the way.
Now that they had completed their mission, the rest was up to the main army of the sect.
After looking into the distance for a moment, Master Shi retracted his gaze and ordered in a low voice.
“Return to the city!”
Xie Jingsheng and the other disciples immediately bowed respectfully.
Not long after, the pagoda changed direction and flew toward Dragonsidc City.
When the pagoda arrived at the east gate of Dragonside City, the other two groups had already returned and were gathered together, excitedly chatting about what they had seen and heard in the past few days or showing off their achievements.
Lin Shen rode a cloud and slowly descended from the pagoda. His clothes were already clean and tidy again.
The Bind Yang Gown had an automatic cleaning function, to begin with. In addition, Lin Shen even used the Cleansing Talisman to clean his hands, feet, and face. At this moment, he didn’t look like he had just experienced a war that had lasted for more than half a month.
As soon as he landed, Yang Zhongyi was the first to notice him.
“Lin!”
Waving his hand, Yang Zhongyi walked over with a smile.
Su Nian followed beside him with a faint smile on his face.
Lin Shen sized up the two of them and smiled.
“Looks like you guys have gained a lot recently.”
“Not really,” Yang Zhongyi chuckled.
Despite what he said, there was a big smile on his face. Lin Shen knew Yang Zhongyi must have had a fruitful experience and was secretly delighted.
As expected, Su Nian revealed the truth.
“This guy got two essence-absorbing tokens full of blood essence and laughed all the way here from the Dragon Abyss Mountain Range.”
“Stop talking about me. Didn’t you also get two full tokens? Aren’t you happy?” Yang Zhongyi rolled his eyes at Su Nian.
Lin Shen smiled as he watched the two of them bicker.
For a Yellow-rank disciple, it was already impressive enough to obtain two essence-absorbing tokens full of blood essence. It would earn them a total of 4.0 minor merits.
“What about you, Lin Shen?” Su Nian suddenly asked Lin Shen.
Lin Shen smiled.
He had obtained much more tokens than Yang Zhongyi and Su Nian.
Especially in the battle where he killed Bai Teng, the blood essence he absorbed was more than enough to fill two tokens.
Now, he had as many as eight tokens full of blood essence, and one was more than half full. In total, he could exchange for more than 170 minor merits!
He had earned more merit points than he had combined in the past. It was incredible!
“No wonder so many disciples can’t wait to go to war. As long as you have enough strength, the battlefield is indeed a good place to obtain a large number of merit points.”
As this thought flashed through his mind, Lin Shen was about to answer the question when he heard a commotion. He turned around and saw a young man in his twenties surrounded by many disciples who were showering him with flattery.
Lin Shen’s eyes flickered, and he asked curiously, “Who’s that?”
Yang Zhongyi took a look and pursed his lips. “Yan Jingren, Yan Xing’s elder brother.”
Lin Shen nodded. No wonder he looked a little familiar. Yan Jingren’s facial features were quite similar to Yan Xing’s.
“It’s said that Yan Jingren killed an Enlightening Stage demon a few days ago. He’s probably feeling smug now.”
Because of Yan Xing, Yang Zhongyi didn’t have a good impression of Yan Jingren, so his tone was a little impolite.
“He’s in the Bright Aperture Stage. If you ask me, what’s there to be smug about killing an Enlightening Stage demon? If he’s really powerful, why didn’t he kill one when he was in the Long Breath Stage?”
A disciple beside Yang Zhongyi was probably Yan Jingren’s supporter. When he heard this, he immediately turned around and glared at Yang Zhongyi.
“A Long Breath Stage cultivator killing an Enlightening Stage beast? That’s the funniest joke I’ve ever heard. Even if you’re jealous of Senior Brother Yan and want to pick on him, you should at least pick something reasonable. Why are you talking about such an impossible thing?”
As the disciple sneered, he realized that for some reason, the people around him were staring at him with strange expressions, as if they were looking at a fellow who had never seen the world..
