Ascension of the Immortal Asura

Chapter 535 Alliance City

Over the next two weeks, the flying ship of the Heavenly Lightning Sect shot forward over the land, carving a path directly towards the Honorable Alliance.
At one point, John decided to move his cultivation sessions to his room balcony.

From the balcony, he was able to see the marvelous land of the Divine Martial Continent fly by.
Vast landscapes of sprawling forests or barren wastelands, climbing mountains and frozen tundras.
The continent had it all, and each area was filled with cities, sects, and powerful beasts.
Each was awe inspiring, and the beasts John saw were beyond his imagination.

Were it not for the protection of Thunderfist and the flying ship, John knew he would never be able to make such a journey.
The amount of Dao Transformation beasts were uncountable.

As the ship sped forward towards the center of the continent, John couldn ’t help but notice the density of the natural Qi in the air rise.
While it was not as drastic a change as going from the Yuan Continent to the Divine Martial Continent, it was still a noticeable difference.

Someone cultivating at the center of the continent would undoubtedly cultivate faster than back at the Heavenly Lightning sect.

’No wonder all the strongest powers are located closer to the center of the continent.
I wonder why the Qi is the thickest in this part though? ’

While musing over this, John felt the ship start to slow down gradually.
He stood up and leaned over his balcony, gazing towards the front of the ship as best he could.
As he did so, his eyebrows raised slightly at the sight in the far distance.

An ancient city, far larger and grander than anything he had seen before came into view.
Despite being dozens of miles away, the city was so large that it was almost unable to be viewed all at once.

Marble white walls, thousands of feet high lined the perimeter of the city, while a towering translucent formation barrier covered the sky above it.
Outside the walls of the city, smaller cities, towns and farmlands spread out, making use of the surrounding land.
Not an inch was unoccupied.

At the same time, thousands of other merchants, caravans, and flying ships were streaming into the city each hour, making it vibrant with life and activity.

Within the walls, hundreds of thousands of buildings, from small houses to massive palaces were visible, each inspiring its own form of awe and beauty.
John couldn ’t help but sigh in amazement at the sight before him.

”Alliance City, ” John exclaimed, his gaze shifting to the massive circular building in the very center of the city.
The Honorable Alliance building dwarfed all the others, and inspired a completely different kind of awe.

”We ’re finally here. ”

After clearing inspection at the front gates, the Heavenly Lightning Sect flying ship was allowed passage into the city, and followed closely behind a guard escort.
The guard flew over the city towards the Honorable Alliance headquarters, giving the disciples of the sect who gathered at the front of the ship a perfect view of the city.

All of them stared in awe at the sight, as it was the first time any of them were seeing it.

”This place makes our Heavenly Lightning Sect look rural, ” a disciple exclaimed in a self deprecating manner.

”Tell me about it, ” another replied.

The ship took quite a bit of time to arrive at its destination, which was a district relatively close to the Alliance headquarters, but still a few miles away.
After instructing all the disciples to leave the ship, Thunderfist stored the ship away.

The disciples found themselves standing in an incredibly expansive courtyard, which sprawled for a mile in each direction.
The courtyard was packed with other groups of disciples who had just arrived from other sects, and more flying ships arrived by the minute.

John and the rest couldn ’t help but gaze around, at both the city as well as the disciples of the other sects.
While his gaze was sweeping about, Lyeon suddenly came into view, staring coldly at John.
With a huff, John ’s gaze continued onwards, as Lyeon was beneath his notice.

’It seems like Lily ’s advice was correct.
I ’ll have to keep an eye out for Lyeon and make sure he doesn ’t do anything.
While he can ’t touch me, he could always target Adam, Chase, or Iris. ’

”Attention, ” a booming call from the front of the group echoed out, causing the disciples of the Heavenly Lightning Sect to look at who had just spoken.
It was a guard dressed in ornate armor, who had been the one who had escorted the ship to this location.

”Welcome to our city, young Heavenly Lightning Sect disciples, ” the guard called out.
”This is the Disciple District, and it is where you will be staying for the next few days before the realm is opened.
The district has all the amenities you could think of, so please feel free to explore the district during these next few days.
Now if you ’ll follow me, I will escort you to your temporary abodes. ”

After explaining all that, the guard turned on his heels and began walking in a certain direction.
The disciples quickly followed behind, and after meandering through some bustling streets, they eventually arrived before a building.
The building was several stories tall, and was quite luxurious in quality and design.

”This building will be your abode for the next few days.
There are three hundred rooms, so each disciple gets a room to themselves.
They are all the same, so just choose one at random, ” the guard instructed.
”The realm will open in a few days, and an announcement will be made across the district to gather at the Honorable Alliance.
So do be mindful to remain in the district to not miss that announcement..
I hope you all enjoy your stay in our illustrious city, and I wish you all luck in the trials to come. ”
