Chapter 4503: Cloud City
and artifacts used for cultivating physical body techniques. The talismans and artifacts commonly used by ordinary cultivators are rather mediocre. His wife has contracted a peculiar fire crow poison...Amidst the tumultuous chaos, massive cloud pillars surged like colossal blades into the heavens. At this moment, millions of Cloud Sand Warriors were using warships to maneuver the floating landmasses in the void, either merging them together or transporting them to designated locations.
Upon one landmass, within a chasm-sized furnace, the earth's flame raged. Azure-black flames emanated with astonishing power, melting a piece of Luoyao crystal stone. The black aura emitted by the Luoyao crystal stone merged into a piece of dark gray rock.
Figures of sand-soldier giants, each towering thousands of feet tall, were already being constructed. Monstrous stone blocks, resembling gigantic grapes, were hoisted with a deafening roar and placed upon the colossal vessel.
Brought by a giant barge to the place where those towering pillars of clouds interweave, a sand golem giant then unloaded it.
Even with the stature of a Terracotta giant, lifting some of the heavier stone slabs required several men to shoulder and carry them. Or else, they would be hoisted up using thick, obsidian crystal chains.
"This is the first fortress we've built on the Xuan Yong battlefield, Yun Zhong City. What do you think Not bad, right" Ao Zhan proudly introduced to Aolei. Aolei was a celestial dragon he had recently recruited from the East Sea Dragon Palace. In the fairy world, he had always been secretive and afraid to show his true form, fearing a joint attack by several major heavenly courts.
At this time, the Emperor of Qinling has already laid out a vast territory for his chariots and horses in the fairy world. They no longer need to hide like before, always lurking in the shadows.
Yunzhong City was in ruins, but as the budding city of the Yunsha Clay figures, it also held all their hopes. Looking at this unformed city, Ao Zhan's eyes were filled with longing. Although this place was mainly inhabited by Yunsha Clay figures, Ao Zhan knew that Emperor Qilin had other formidable forces in his hands. But none of that mattered; what mattered was that Emperor Qilin had promised to establish a place where dragons could live in his territory in the future.
No longer will we be oppressed by the heavenly court, nor need to worry about living from one day to the next.
At this time, Ao Zhan spared no effort to expand Yunzhong City as much as possible. At this time, the Dragon Clan's power in Yunzhong City was too weak, and Ao Zhan was trying to find ways to strengthen the Dragon Clan's presence here. Aotong used to practice ordinary methods in the East China Sea Dragon Palace, and he lacked sufficient resources. He could deal with ordinary celestial immortals, but he was still far behind when facing true powerhouses.
Although Ao Tong's aptitude and comprehension are quite good, it was not easy to bring him onto the pirate ship. Naturally, one would want to fully utilize his abilities. Since he still lacks some experience, Ao Zhan immediately thought of Lu Xia Tian.

“Although it's only just begun, the scale of this Cloud City is beyond imagination.” Ao Tong withdrew his gaze from the busy construction site where Yunsha soldiers were feverishly building the magnificent city. He then worried, “Eastern Saint Dan is now the Lord of Cloud City, a high-ranking Fourth Grade Alchemist with immense power and influence. To even have a chance to meet him would be great; to ask him for help with alchemy might be too presumptuous.”
"It's nothing. Perhaps it's because the Eastern Sage of Alchemy came from another plane to enter the Immortal Realm. Previously, in Honghao and Yuxuan Heavenly Court, he was ostracized many times. He didn't treat our Dragon Clan harshly, but instead treated us very favorably. Recently, I have asked him several times to help refine pills, and he also helped refine some pills for several other members of the Dragon Clan. The Eastern Sage of Alchemy is indeed welcoming to all. Your strength should be stronger, your realm isn't weak, so I think the Eastern Sage of Alchemy wouldn't refuse your request."
Ao Zhan had a confident look on his face. “Furthermore, Dongfang Dan Saint entered Yun Zhong City and was chosen by the Puppet Emperor to be the City Lord. His status is prominent, his strength is formidable, but his cultivation level still fell short. In secret, there were those who were dissatisfied. Dongfang Dan Saint excels in alchemy over cultivation. To firmly secure this position as City Lord, he would need the support of some people.”
“Previously, I was given some important tasks by the Emperor of Puppetry. Because my dragon troops were not strong and my cultivation was not particularly outstanding, I was ostracized from the beginning. The current situation of the Eastern Dan Saint is only more embarrassing than mine. If I can't try my best to win over people's support, this position as City Lord may not be so secure.”
Aotu looked as if to say, "I see," and didn't seem particularly surprised. The higher one's position, the more complex the relationships and situations surrounding them would be.
“Talking about others behind their backs is not a good habit.” A voice suddenly rang out as Ao Zhan and Ao Tong were engaged in two rounds of conversation.
"Lord City Master," Ao Zhan was startled and hurriedly said, "It was this subordinate who spoke too much, Lord City Master, please don't blame me."
Ao Tong was even more panicked at this moment, after all, he was a newcomer with a very unstable position. When he was gossiping about Lu Xiaoteng behind his back, he was caught red-handed. Even though Lu Xiaoteng's cultivation was still at the level of a Heavenly Immortal, his strength was lacking and his foundation wasn't very solid, causing this City Lord position to seem somewhat shaky, it was still child's play to deal with several Heavenly Immortal-level experts.
"It's not strange at all, what you said is true. I just happened to need something from you, come quickly."

“Alright, alright, I’ll be right there.” Ao Zhan also secretly wiped a cold sweat. Even though Lu Xia Tian’s cultivation level seemed a bit low compared to governing the entire Yun Zhong City, such a massive fairy city located within the Xuan Yong battlefield should have at least a Golden Immortal-level cultivator as its lord. A mere Xuan Yin City had three Golden Immortal-level fighters – the City Lord and the Black and White Xuan Zun. Before this, there was another Golden Immortal-level powerhouse who was injured by Qin Ling Emperor’s schemes and couldn’t return to Xuan Yin City in time.

The scale of this Cloud City will only surpass that of Xuan Yin City in the future, even several times over wouldn't be strange. Although the forces outside the Four Celestial Palaces are weak, if a part of them is gathered together, their scale is far beyond what Xuan Yin City can compare to. However, Xuan Yin City was newly established, and at this time, there are very few creatures suitable for cultivation here. In such a harsh environment, only Yunsha figurines, a small number of certain types of people, and some demons are suitable for living here.

As for the monsters and demons that roamed freely on the Xuan Yong battlefield, they were wild and untamed, with unruly personalities. They could not be easily subdued. At this time, Yunzhong City still had to deploy a large number of troops to regularly clean up the threats brought by these monsters and demons.
The City Lord's Mansion was still extremely simple, just a large but very rudimentary stone hall. The female attendants originally wanted to provide Lu Xiaotian with some things, but Lu Xiaotian refused them. He even only kept two female attendants, which made it appear extremely poor. Crucially, these two female attendants mostly had nothing to do on a daily basis.

Ao Zhan and Ao Tong, having received Lu Xia Tian's permission, verified their identities and then charged straight in.
“City Lord, what is this” Dozens of red dragons swam in the air where Lu Xiaoteng was sitting cross-legged, exuding an extremely majestic and grand aura. If they didn't know Lu Xiaoteng’s identity, the two would almost think that Lu Xiaoteng was a dragon clan. power of a powerful monster like Huo Yun, even after reaching the stage of Hunyuan, Lu Xiaotian still dared not be careless. 。At this time, strands of true qi like tangible substance were released fr...
