Qin Yang handled the matter very reliably.
On the third day, Qin Yang told Zhu Minng that the issue had been resolved.
A member of the Royal Family, who did not wish to reveal her name, was willing to exchange the mining and city ownership deeds that Zhu Minng had for an opportunity to cultivate in the Dragon Country.
“She is a Female Marquis who has encountered arge deficit in her finances and is selling off some items to cover these losses. We just happen to have so many deeds on hand…” Qin Yang said to Zhu Minng.
“Good, since having them without a suitable buyer is a loss anyway,” Zhu Minng nodded, agreeing to the small transaction.
Zhu Minng had already looked into deeds like those of Runyu City.
Its location was quite remote, and there probably weren’t many people in the Imperial City interested in it, the price being just seventy or eighty thousand gold.
This was far below his initial estimate of at least one hundred and fifty thousand.
But in reality, holding onto the deeds for an extended time while searching for a proper buyer, or going to that country specifically to see if anyone wanted to be a City Lord, could bring a price as high as two or three hundred thousand gold…
The problem was, Zhu Minng simply didn’t have the time to wait and look.
The opportunity to train in the Dragon Country was once in a lifetime, and his current level was the most suited for cultivation there.
Zhu Minng, holding so many deeds, ultimately needed to convert them into money, which was for the rapid enhancement of his strength!
The qualification to enter the Dragon Country was priceless.
Who knew how much money and connections it would take to secure another chance to travel to the Dragon Country after missing out on this deal with the Female Marquis’s deficit.
Moreover, he had been expelled from the Imperial City and would not have the opportunity for many years toe.
Mr. Jinli had prepared many spiritual resources to enhance Bai Qi’s abilities.
The focus was mainly on strengthening Bai Qi’s frost power.
The strengthening process wasn’t too difficult.
But it was indeed quite costly.
Zhu Minng also specifically waited until Little White Bai Qi had absorbed this batch of strengthening spiritual objects before he set off for the Dragon Country.
Being at the Peak Lord Level, along with Little White’s three powerful abilities, he should have a huge advantage even when facing creatures of the same level.
Of course, to break through to the Monarch Level wasn’t something that could be achieved simply by spending money.
Little White had one more advancement to go, and it was best to prepare well for this advancement.
After making the necessary preparations, Zhu Minng officially set off.
Entering the Imperial Pce, someone specifically escorted them to the Dragon Country.
The Dragon Country was a unique sacredndpletely suspended in the air, where one could see many miraculous sky vines hanging down from the thick clouds.
In thend among the clouds, there were also magical trees and the mountains of Cloud Mountain, which were piled upyer uponyer, like a fairnd.
Upon arriving at the entrance of the Dragon Country, all around were cloud screens resembling white mountain ranges, and the mist underfoot could be tread upon, soft like snow, sinking when stepped on.
“The two of you, while the dragons inside do not harbor malice toward humans, please do not lightly provoke those noble Heavenly Dragons,” said the Dragon Guard protecting the Dragon Country.
“If an ident urs, there will be no one inside toe to your rescue.”
“Furthermore, the space inside is much more extensive than what the naked eye can see, and there are also strange and uncharted ancient realms that even our Imperial Dynasty has not fully explored. Do not step into them out of curiosity, as it may be very difficult toe out alive,” the Dragon Guard warned Zhu Minng and Nan Lingsha very earnestly.
Both nodded, indicating that they would remember these words firmly in their hearts.
“The dragons inside belong to you if you catch them, providing you have the ability,” another Dragon Guard added.
“The spiritual resources inside, if you can obtain them, they also belong to you.”
“Remember to pay attention to themp jade hanging around your waists. Themp jade can provide you with life vitality. In the Dragon Country of Clouds, every moment consumes a great deal of our life breath. Once yourmp jade dims, you must immediately leave. Otherwise, you might be frozen by the cloud ice, eventually bing cloud snow that drifts within the cloud kingdom, and this has nothing to do with the level of your cultivation base.”
The Dragon Guards were quite professional, repeating all the essential matters that needed to be conveyed.
After saying these, they let Zhu Minng and Nan Ling Sha enter.
Upon stepping into the Dragon Country of Clouds, the cloudyers became dense and resembled a vast cial world. Although the clouds drifted aimlessly, they looked no different from frosty air.
“It’s very cold here, unbearable for ordinary people,” said Nan Ling Sha.
“Yes, the icy cold depletes our life vitality until it exhausts our body’s organs and freezes us to death. We would then be clumps of icy cloud dust. It seems that the real key to entering the Dragon Country of Clouds is not the qualification, but thismp jade that can maintain the breath of life vitality,” Zhu Minng replied.
Even the royal family could not enter the Dragon Country of Clouds to explore at any time.
Lamp jade is limited, which makes the cultivation in the Dragon Country of Clouds all the more precious.
“Mew”
Little White seemed to like this ce very much. The chill in the clouds even made its feathers more spirited.
It rarely dozed off on Zhu Minng’s shoulder anymore, instead, it pped its wings and looked around at this extremely special fairnd of clouds.
Some clouds could be walked on.
But some clouds were hollow, and stepping on them might lead to a direct fall into the Cloud Sky Abyss.
The Dragon Country of Clouds itself was a secret realm; from the outside, it looked like a floating mountain of colorful clouds, radiant and unbelievably magnificent, right above the center of the Imperial City. But once inside, it was another world, as if you were truly in a kingdomposed of ice clouds, heavenly vines, colorful pools, and Illusion Mountains!
There were rivers inside.
They were streams of even thinner flowing cloud mist.
There were deep abysses within the clouds.
Completely bottomless Cloud Caves that appeared out of nowhere, falling into which one might not know where they would end up.
And those soaring Cloud Mountains, whose peaks were not visible, could be climbed. One could either brave the fierce icy winds to fly over or climb along the heavenly vines or find other Illusion Mountain clouddders.
Everything in the Dragon Country of Clouds was as fantastical as a dream, beyond all exnation bymon sense.
“I have heard that the so-called Ancient Ruins are simr to secret realms like the Dragon Country of Clouds, areas not constrained by the naturalws, thus they might contain divine spiritual resources and be inhabited by transcendent and saintly beings,” Zhu Minng said to Nan Ling Sha.
“Are you asking about the matter of the Ancient Ruins in the Ancestral Dragon City-State?” Nan Ling Sha asked.
“If the Ancestral Dragon City-State were also to have a secret realm simr to the Dragon Country of Clouds, it would thrive immensely,” Zhu Minng said.
“Perhaps my grandmother knows something about it. We can ask her when we return,” Nan Ling Sha suggested.
Zhu Minng nodded.
One shouldn’t let water intended for one’s own field flow into another’s.
The person who first discovers such a special secret realm or ruins and enters it will surely reap the greatest benefits!
How was the Imperial Dynasty established and how has it stood unshaken? Isn’t it by discovering the Dragon Country of Clouds and gaining control over it?
