My Wife Turns Out to be an Empress of the Dynasty-Chapter 429: Qin Huangmo

Encountering Zhuge Qingyun was an unexpected event for Gu Lan. What was even more surprising was that he couldn't discern anything special about the seed Zhuge Qingyun had left behind. It appeared to be an ordinary seed, yet it had been preserved for over a decade without decaying, and it was given by the same East Sea youth who had provided the inheritance wooden token.

This made it seem extraordinary.

If that East Sea youth was indeed Chen Feng, then the seed might also be something valuable.

Gu Lan put the seed away. After all, his storage already contained numerous valuable items, and he hadn't yet had time to study the three Lotus Phala he acquired from the Earthly Realm. Adding another mysterious seed didn't make much of a difference.

The two left the tavern. After talking with Zhuge Qingyun, they had a general understanding of the upcoming Great Competition of All Clans.

Besides the local forces of the Immortal Realm, there were restrictions on other realms participating in the Great Competition of All Clans. For instance, in the realms of Immortals, Demons, Monsters, and Netherworlds, each realm could have no more than thirty-six participating forces.

In the Earthly Realm, only one force could participate.

The local forces of the Immortal Realm had no such restrictions; as long as a sect had a Saint Stage cultivator under a hundred years old, they could participate.

Despite the numerous restrictions, many forces still participated in the Great Competition of All Clans. Just within the tavern, Gu Lan saw no fewer than ten forces preparing to join the competition. Most were local to the Immortal Realm, with only a few from other realms.

The three thousand worlds of the Earthly Realm seemed numerous, but those with the opportunity to participate in the Great Competition of All Clans in the Immortal Realm were the fewest.

Firstly, the Earthly Realm lacked the resources needed for cultivation, making it difficult to nurture a genius cultivator under a hundred years old.

Secondly, ascending to the Immortal Realm required immense resources. Most Earthly Realms lacked Divine Stone veins, making it nearly impossible to gather the necessary Divine Stones for ascension.

Gu Lan knew this well. Even with his Divine Space Ring, which allowed him to transport a few people across realms, large-scale transportation still required a substantial amount of Divine Stones. In the Immortal Realm, Divine Stones were considered hard currency and were often in short supply.

Returning to the Immortal Realm's reception area for Lower Realm Divine Ships, Li Xiong was leading the disciples of the Lanyan Royal School in line, waiting for the Immortal Realm staff to register them. Only after registration could they participate in the Great Competition of All Clans.

There were many forces being registered here. Gu Lan glanced over and frowned slightly.

"Darling!"

"The disciples participating in the Great Competition of All Clans still need to queue for registration. It might take some time."

"Given the difficulty of coming to the Immortal Realm, instead of wasting time here, I think we should go ahead to the 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm and explore the situation of the Great Competition of All Clans."

At this moment, Mu Yuyan made a suggestion. The 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm was once a sacred place in the Xiantian World and was also the location of the Great Competition of All Clans.

Gu Lan had learned this from Zhuge Qingyun and had purchased a simple map of the Xiantian World from the reception area.

Traveling from the reception area to the 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm required crossing the Divine Emperor Sea. This sea was surrounded by enormous Divine Emperor statues and various formations and restrictions that sealed the space, making it impossible to use teleportation arrays to enter the 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm.

Once inside the 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm, there would be no such restrictions.

The Immortal Realm's reception area for Lower Realm forces was set up before the Divine Emperor Sea, likely with the intention of creating obstacles.

Gu Lan didn't pay much attention to these minor tactics. Compared to the final result, such schemes were insignificant.

"Honey's suggestion is reasonable. Let me give Li Xiong a few instructions, and then we'll set off."

Gu Lan agreed with Mu Yuyan's suggestion. He approached Li Xiong and the disciples of the Lanyan Royal School, gave some instructions, and handed over the control device for the Divine Ship. After a few more words, he and Mu Yuyan left the reception area and headed towards the 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm.

Traveling alone, Gu Lan summoned the Void Divine Ship and sped through the Divine Emperor Sea at a pace that normal Divine Ships could not match.

Traveling by sea was undeniably a lonely endeavor. The speed of their Divine Ship quickly attracted a lot of attention, including from many other Divine Ships heading towards the 33rd Sky of Immortal Realm for the Great Competition of All Clans.

"The Xiantian World is indeed vast. Its area is probably equivalent to two or three Immortal Realms."

On the Divine Ship, Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan were studying the map of the Xiantian World.

Suddenly, a golden flying sword appeared in the distance. It was a communication sword used to send messages. The golden sword circled around the Divine Ship but was blocked by the Divine Ship's own restrictions.

Gu Lan captured the communication sword and immediately read the message within.

"Greetings to both of you. I am Qin Huangmo, Realm Ruler of Jianmu in the Earthly Realm."

"I am also of the Human Clan and would like to be friends with you. I wonder if you would be willing?"

"If you are not willing, simply withhold the communication sword, and I will leave immediately without disturbing you."

"If you are willing, just release the communication sword, and it will guide you to my Jianmu Divine Ship."

After reading the message, the two exchanged glances and looked in a certain direction.

In that direction, a cyan Divine Ship was straining to catch up with their Divine Ship. The fact that it could keep up with Gu Lan's Void Divine Ship indicated that it was not an ordinary vessel.

On the cyan Divine Ship stood a tall middle-aged man. Gu Lan, with his excellent eyesight, instantly recognized him as someone he had seen at the reception area.

It seemed that this person had specifically sought them out. Gu Lan wondered about his intentions.

"Honey, this person is quite enthusiastic and is a Realm Ruler from the Earthly Realm. It's indeed rare."

"Why don't we meet him and see what he wants?"

Gu Lan suggested, and Mu Yuyan agreed. Given their Divine Ship's speed, crossing the Divine Emperor Sea would take three hours, and having someone to pass the time with was a pleasant diversion.

"Let's go!"

Seeing that his wife agreed, Gu Lan released the golden communication sword. Shortly afterward, they sped up and arrived in front of the cyan Divine Ship.

"I am Qin Huangmo. I apologize for the previous intrusion. Please do not take offense."

The middle-aged man appeared slightly surprised when he saw Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan moving so swiftly but soon looked very pleased.

Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan nodded in greeting and introduced themselves briefly.

According to the Immortal Realm's rules, an Earthly Realm Realm Ruler would be the leader of a participating sect in the Great Competition of All Clans. Since Gu Lan was the head of the Lanyan Royal School, he automatically held the title of Earthly Realm Realm Ruler.

"Please come with me!"

Upon learning Gu Lan's Realm Ruler status, Qin Huangmo appeared even more delighted.
