Chapter 1175: Heavenvine Citadel
It was more apt to describe the Heavenvine Citadel as a world suspended in the sky rather than a city
If one were sailing on the grand sea and looking forward, this would see on the water
In fact, this was not a tree but a gigantic vine of an unreal nitude since it reached even the sky canopy One could see islands scattered about right below this great vine
Outside of little islets that were actually made fro of vines
When squatting down for a different perspective, people could actually seeheld up by the roots and even the leaves of the vine tree Such islands were mountains taken from under the sea and placed on top of the vine tree
While standing below the vine and looking up, the entire sky would be blotted out by its branches and leaves In fact, in this sea region, countless vine roots were criss crossing each other Soes
At the sa that the sky above was an entirely separate world Its parts intertwined to form a neorld Palaces were built on them and even smaller cities could be found The old ancestors worked hard to bring many mountains up the vine tree to form landmasses and cities
In the deepest recesses of the vine tree were nue continent It was refined into a forbidden location This was the heavenly grotto ical scene appeared before everyone, causing them to be overwhelmed with awe An entire world was held up by this vine tree
“Prosperity and downfall both brought about by the heavenly vine” Li Qiye coazed at the scenery
Such words shook Teng Jiwen’sarose He wasn’t clear of what this omen meant
“Sir, this way, please” He calmed down and quickly told Li Qiye: “Our disciples have prepared your quarters Please rest well, it has been a long and hard journey” [1 This last part is just a literary formality They took a portal here Usually, the host would say it to the guest who traveled far distances, especially when they’re here to carry out a favor]
Li Qiye faintly s and left the dao platfor Jient to report to his seniors before talking to the upper echelons
The citadel treated Li Qiye with the greatest auest Such treatment was no less than if he was a sectJiwen left, Li Qiye opened his palace and released the Myriad Era Tree It drilled into the ground like a spirit serpent
The ancestral vine was everything in this place Its roots were the foundation of the citadel Nothing was enerations of wise sages here worked quite hard on it Despite the large territory, every single branch and leaf had forainst the ancestral vine would be found out right away
Outside of being vigilant against outsiders, they prevented the disciples of their own sect fro trouble as well However, the truth was that even without these preparations fro the ancestral vine was next to iination
Even if a truly heaven-defying person could infiltrate a leaf or a branch, they wouldn’t be able to infiltrate the main root of the tree, let alone the truly important zones
Of course, this was no probleevity Grass, there was nothing more precious than the Myriad Era Tree
More importantly, it didn’t drill into the ancestral vine with orous life force This was the power of eternal life, soreat fortune
