Western Desert.
The Abyssal Iris Archipelago includes seven surrounding islands.
Ships move between them, showing utmost respect to the people of Qingming Palace on the islands.
Yuantong Island, Qingming Palace, has now become a sacred place in the Western Desert.
It not only stabilized the chaotic situation in the Western Desert but also provided many forces with extensive support in spiritual elixirs, treasure tools, arrays, and talisman formations.
The once chaotic and fragmented Western Desert has now reunited under the leadership of Qingming Palace.
If war is an opportunity for breakthrough,
then stability is the key factor for development.
Continuously, talents are flooding into the Western Desert, pouring into Qingming Palace, even including Grandmaster-level experts of the Four Arts!
Qingming Palace acts like a locomotive, driving the rapid development of the entire Western Desert.
The seven islands outside Yuantong Island have long been surrounded by a Grandmaster-level Seven Star Demon Extermination Formation led by Yang Aoshan and the people of the Array Hall.
Based on the distribution of the array eyes on the island, these guardian seven islands have also been simply named after the Seven Stars.
At this moment, on the coast of the westernmost Tianji Island, three Qingming Palace managers wearing Abyss Eyes uniforms are patrolling together.
"Once this duty is completed, I can accumulate enough contributions to cultivate on the Holy Island for three days!"
The black-faced man grins, his face full of anticipation.
"With a few more practices, I should be nearing the Shining Star limit and can apply to breakthrough into the Qingming Sacred Realm!"
The young manager next to him says, "Brother Yao, I’ll go to the Holy Island with you."
The black-faced man is quite surprised, "Little Yang, have you also accumulated enough contribution points?"
"Not really." Little Yang rubs his nose.
At this time, the last of the three, a tall and thin man, smiles and says:
"He’s only been in Qingming Palace for three months, how could he have gathered enough contributions? I bet he wants to see Master Luo Xiaoyun from the Talisman Hall!"
"Hahaha, so that’s how it is!" The black-faced man laughs heartily, raising his hand to pat Little Yang’s shoulder, "Little Yang, not bad, quietly getting close to Master Xiaoyun!"
Since Qingming Palace integrated the Western Desert, as the region stabilized and more talents poured in, more people began forming relationships.
Especially in the Alchemy Talisman Array Halls of Qingming Palace, there are many outstanding female Star Card Masters.
Given the prestigious status of the Four Halls of Qingming Palace, forming a partnership with someone from the halls is certainly an enviable thing.
Pairing up is inherently more conducive to the stability and development of forces, so Qingming Palace not only doesn’t prohibit it, but rather hosts some joint events appropriately.
Little Yang blushes slightly, smiling, "It’s nothing, just a bit of progress..."
The black-faced man laughs and says, "Then you better work harder, Little Yang. Master Xiaoyun is adorable, and she can make blue-grade talismans. She has many admirers."
Little Yang nods repeatedly, just about to say something, when he suddenly focuses intently on the sea.
"Brother Yao, Brother Feng, there seems to be something there!"
Little Yang points far out towards the sea.
The black-faced man and the tall and thin man immediately look up, seeing what appears to be a rather large sea beast floating on the sea.
From afar, it looks serpentine, with azure skin, covered in scars, with patches of blood staining the surrounding sea.
Both the black-faced man and the tall and thin young man stiffen, and the three of them immediately fly up, passing through the barrier of the Seven Star Formation to investigate.
"Sea beast... No, it’s a true dragon!" The three are shocked to see the azure dragon with dragon horns, "It seems like a dragon from the Dragon Palace!"
Being in the Western Desert, and as Upper Three-level experts, the three naturally know about the presence of the ’Dragon Palace’ between the depths of the Southwest Sea Domain and the Southern Continent.
And a dragon of the Dragon Palace appears heavily injured here?
The burly man quickly examines the azure dragon, "It seems to be gravely wounded!"
"I’ll try a Water Healing Technique first."
Little Yang approaches cautiously, star power gathering in his hands to perform a healing skill on the azure dragon.
Just then, the azure dragon suddenly opens its eyes.
"Roar!"
A low roar, a strong dragon aura emanates, causing the blood and energy in the three men’s torsos to churn violently!
Burning Sun Level!
Even in such a severely wounded state, just a hint of its power was enough to stir their blood and energy—undoubtedly Burning Sun Level!
"Be careful!" the burly man warns in a low voice.
The three of them quickly fly apart, their eyes wide with shock, faces pale, as they watch the azure dragon.
But at this moment, the azure dragon closes its eyes again, fainting once more.
"It’s passed out again," Little Yang exclaims.
"Communication Island and the Holy Island!"
