As expected.

Before long, two burly men with knotted muscles approached the man who had just spoken.

The expressions of the others present changed involuntarily when they saw these two men.

Someone couldn't help but exclaim aloud.

"They're warriors from the Daoist Palace!"

Warriors are people specially trained by the Daoist Palace and the major Holy Lands.

These people specialize in honing their physical bodies, primarily for the purpose of protecting the Dao.

The cultivation levels of these two Daoist Palace warriors in front of them were obviously at the peak of the third tier.

Thus, as soon as they appeared, they exerted immense pressure on the man who had spoken earlier.

"You... what do you want?"

The two warriors did not respond but simultaneously swung left and right, grabbing the man and tossing him far away.

Bam!

Shortly after, a dull sound mixed with screams came from a distance.

The people present, witnessing this, fell silent one by one.

With warning-filled gazes, the two Daoist Palace warriors scanned the crowd before turning back into the arch building.

At the same time.

Inside the arch building.

Ji Haoyuan and his entourage were led inside by a youth dressed in Daoist Palace attire. Facing them was a man in a yellow Daoist robe, seemingly around forty years old.

Almost instantly, his gaze fell on Ji Haoyuan.

A smile quickly appeared on his face, and he unexpectedly bowed to Ji Haoyuan, saying:

"You must be the esteemed Nanhua Dao You?

I am Bai Haochuan.

Yesterday, Mr. Zuo specifically sent someone my way to ask me to care for you all.

Now that you've arrived, I will grant you some convenience on your journey as entrusted by Mr. Zuo."

saying this, the middle-aged Daoist who claimed to be Bai Haochuan took out a jade token from his person and handed it to Ji Haoyuan, saying:

"This token is a passage token for outsiders of our Daoist Palace.

With it, your journey will be unhindered should you encounter any difficulties."

Ji Haoyuan evidently did not expect that the other party had called him in for such a matter.

Reflecting on what he did the previous day, he immediately realized that Zuo Linjun had likely assisted him secretly once more.

He noted this kindness for later.

Ji Haoyuan reached out to accept the jade token, expressing his gratitude to Bai Haochuan, saying:

"In that case, thank you, Mr. Bai."

Once he received the jade token.

Without making a scene, a storage bag was already sent to Bai Haochuan's hand.

Bai Haochuan scanned the contents of the storage bag with his divine thought.

Upon seeing what was inside, he displayed a rather satisfied smile on his face.

His attitude became more hospitable than before.

"Nanhua Dao You, no need to be so courteous.

I see the time for the teleportation array activation is drawing near.

Nanhua Dao You, perhaps you should take a seat at the teleportation array? Once the time comes, you can depart without delay. How does that sound?"

"Alright, as Mr. Bai suggests."

For such matters, Ji Haoyuan would naturally not refuse.

Soon, he and his group were led by the earlier youth to a relatively large platform.

On either side of the platform were two rows of seats.

Ji Haoyuan and his group sat down sequentially.

They heard the young man say, "Please wait a moment, Dao You. The teleportation array will soon be activated.

However, you need not worry. As long as you remain seated, there will be no discomfort when the teleportation array is activated."

Hearing this, Ji Haoyuan and the others silently pondered.

They instinctively looked down at their seats.

Could these seats have protective abilities, enabling a smooth experience while using the teleportation array?

Not long after.

The questions in Ji Haoyuan's mind were answered.

As time passed, those cultivators waiting outside also started entering one after another.

However, upon seeing Ji Haoyuan and his entourage already seated on the platform, everyone's faces inevitably turned somewhat sullen.

But here, no one dared to cause trouble.

Soon.

The young man in Daoist Palace attire said: "Time's up, commence the array!"

Buzz!

As he spoke, he immediately executed several spells with his hands.

The platform gleamed with light continuously.

Ji Haoyuan and the others felt a very strong spatial fluctuation surge from the platform.

Such fluctuations evidently exceeded fourth-tier standards.

They could clearly see that those without seats, having to stand, showed painful expressions on their faces.

Indeed.

This level of teleportation could cause discomfort even to Ji Haoyuan, a peak Nascent Soul cultivator, let alone those primarily Golden Core cultivators.

It seemed that the seats served to alleviate discomfort during teleportation.

Fortunately.

The process was not excessively long.

After several breaths.

Everyone saw the scenery before them glowing once more, and the surrounding spatial waves subsided.

Upon lifting their eyes again.

Everyone found themselves in front of another unfamiliar Daoist Palace teleportation array.

Ji Haoyuan realized that this place was Canglin State, several million miles away from Qianling State.

Following this route.

They had to traverse twelve more states to reach their destination, Cyan Profound State.

However, each state's teleportation array activation times varied.

Take Qianling State; its array activated almost daily.

Twice a day.

But here in Canglin State, it reportedly activates once every three days.

There's also a place called Baiyun State, where the Daoist Palace teleportation array opens every half month.

All of this was still manageable.

Though the activation times varied, none were too long.

However, on their path lay a place named Youyue State.

Its array activated only once a year.

For Ji Haoyuan and his group, who must reach Cyan Profound State within three years, this was not good news.

Sadly, nothing could be changed.

With Zuo Linjun's influence, securing rights to use the Daoist Palace's teleportation array en route was already difficult.

Asking for the array to open early was impossible.

In the following time.

Ji Haoyuan and his group experienced few difficulties.

With the jade talisman and the jade token from Bai Haochuan.

No one at the teleportation arrays deliberately made it hard for Ji Haoyuan.

Of course.

This was also due to the "gifts" Ji Haoyuan presented at each location.

Thus.

Ji Haoyuan and his group pressed onward.

Six months later.

They passed through eight states.

After crossing four more states, they could finally reach Cyan Profound State.

However.

Upon arriving at Changting State, the ninth region via teleportation array, they suddenly sensed something amiss.
