One person established a clan

Chapter 328 People from Other Lands
The seven-headed demonic dragon let out a low growl, a fierce glint flashing in its dragon eyes, and it made a move to attack.

"Don't worry."

Su Cheng gently patted its head to reassure it. "It's not clear whether it's friend or foe yet, there's no need to rush into action."

Upon receiving this command, the seven-headed demonic dragon immediately became obedient and quiet, enjoying its master's caresses even more.

"Young master, has something happened?"

Not far away, Wen Qimeng and the others sat atop the Nine-Bend Python's head and called out, "It seems there's the aura of an unfamiliar cultivator!"

"It's alright, I'll handle it," Su Cheng replied, turning his head back to the direction from which the aura was coming.

About half an hour had passed since they left the ruins of the Seven Star Immortal Clan.

After a careful investigation, everyone discovered that this place was no longer within the Five Desolate Domains.

Perhaps it was a hidden door intentionally set up by the ancestors of the Seven Star Immortal Clan, which directly teleported them to the outer realm when they left the ruins, seemingly to allow their descendants to return to their homeland.

To be on the safe side, he had just sent out numerous phantoms to sweep the surroundings, in case there were any potential threats in this unfamiliar place.

As for this place
"They are cultivators from the Longevity Domain."

Shi Xuan whispered, "The place we are in should be the border between the Five Desolate Domains and the Longevity Domain."

Su Cheng raised an eyebrow: "Xuan'er recognizes this too?"

"It's natural."

Shi Xuan smiled faintly: "The cultivation methods of different races and sects are already quite different, so the differences between different regions are naturally even greater. You can find out with a little exploration."

Su Cheng seemed to be deep in thought. "Xuan'er is indeed very knowledgeable."

Just then, the spirit boat slowly approached from afar.

"hiss"

On the bow of the ship, a group of cultivators from the Longevity Domain looked around in shock and fear.

This place appears to be an ordinary void, but it is filled with a terrifying aura, and many eerie phantoms dart about, as if one has stepped into an ancient demon's lair.
Throughout their spiritual practice, they had never personally witnessed such a horrifying sight.

"May I ask where you all come from?"

A clear greeting suddenly rang out, startling everyone so much that they trembled and looked in the direction of the sound with trepidation.

Gazing at the towering, seven-headed demonic dragon, they all held their breath.

What shocked him even more was that such a ferocious creature actually bowed down to that person.
"We are disciples of the Heavenly Sect of the Longevity Domain."

The middle-aged cultivator forced himself to remain calm, shakily flew out of the spirit boat, and cupped his hands, saying, "May I ask who you are, senior?"

"We are from the Five Desolate Regions."

Su Cheng patted the dragon's head lightly and said with great interest, "This is the first time I have seen cultivators from outside the realm. Judging from your clothes and attire, they are indeed very different from those of my realm."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Longevity Domain was greatly shocked.

"The Five Desolate Domains, do they really still exist in the world?"

"."

Su Cheng's brow twitched slightly. To outsiders, the Five Desolate Regions had actually been destroyed?

“The Five Desolate Domains have been sealed off for too long, so it’s normal that the outside world doesn’t know about them.” Shi Xuan smiled and whispered in my ear, “Even I came here with an attitude of trying things out.”

"I see."

Su Cheng nodded in understanding, then looked at the cultivators from beyond the realm.

"Since you are all from the Longevity Domain, why are you here?"

"We have come seeking an opportunity."

The middle-aged cultivator hurriedly explained, "The Five Desolate Domains have been silent for too long. We mistakenly believed that there were ancient inheritances remaining in this border area, which is why we recklessly trespassed."

“That’s right.” A female cultivator stepped forward and echoed her sentiments. “We were attacked by demons just now, and it was thanks to your help, senior, that we were able to escape danger.”

At this point, all the cultivators bowed and paid their respects, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.

"It was nothing, no need for formalities." Su Cheng waved his hand, then pondered for a moment and said, "Your Longevity Domain is one of the Twelve Star Heavens?"

"Exactly."

"Is it very close to the Five Desolate Regions?"

"The two domains are separated by a vast, dark void, a perilous and difficult place to cross." The middle-aged cultivator turned and gestured to the spirit boat behind him. "It was thanks to the sect's treasures that we were able to approach the Five Desolate Domains smoothly."

"Void. Black Sea"

Su Cheng's eyes flickered slightly as he glanced at the outer edge of the void.

This scene is almost indistinguishable from the vast starry sky.

It seems that each region is indeed like a completely different world.
"Your ability to get here is quite remarkable."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

The cultivators hurriedly returned the greeting. "If it weren't for your rescue, senior, we would have perished in the void. How could we be considered to have any skill?"

Su Cheng stroked his chin and said, "However, could you tell me about your Longevity Domain?"

"If you would like to know, senior, we will certainly tell you everything we know!"

Before long, after listening to the middle-aged cultivator's eloquent speech, he quickly understood and nodded.

It seems that these twelve star realms, like the Five Desolate Realms, all prioritize cultivation and are not much different.

But what surprised Su Cheng was...
"Has the spiritual energy in your Longevity Domain also gradually declined in recent years?"

“Yes.” The middle-aged cultivator nodded helplessly. “As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gradually dwindles, even our Heavenly Sect has been affected and has had to risk going to the outer realms to seek opportunities.”

This Heavenly Sect seems to be the most prestigious sect in the Longevity Domain.

Even these people are in such dire straits, so the situation certainly doesn't look good.
"Xuan'er, was it like this over there before you left home?"

I'm not sure.

Shi Xuan pondered and said, "Perhaps I was too inexperienced back then and never paid attention to this issue."

Su Cheng pondered for a moment, then looked at the group of cultivators from the Longevity Domain.

"Since you have come seeking an opportunity, I will not disturb you any longer. Let us take our leave now."

"This"

The cultivators were slightly startled and quickly said, "Senior, if we may be so bold as to ask, we wonder if the Five Desolate Domains have reopened?"

"The seal that covers the Five Desolate Regions is still in place; my appearance here is purely accidental."

Su Cheng smiled faintly: "But perhaps one day in the future, it will truly begin."

“Senior.” Yang Zhenxuan suddenly stepped forward, his expression solemn: “One day, we hope that you can come to the Longevity Domain for a chat. We will definitely repay the life-saving grace you have today.”

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble."

Then, he kindly advised, "The demons here are all tainted by the aura of the Dark Realm, and they are indeed difficult to deal with. If you wish to continue seeking opportunities, remember to give them as much space as possible and avoid direct confrontation."

"Dark Domain... aura?"

However, the people from the Longevity Domain all looked puzzled.

Su Cheng's brows twitched slightly. It seemed they were all unaware of the existence of the Dark Domain?

So it seems that this Dark Domain is indeed unique to the Five Desolate Domains.
"Although we don't know what the Dark Domain you mentioned is, the demons here are indeed stronger than usual." The middle-aged cultivator quickly replied, expressing his gratitude, "We will definitely be more careful."

"Alright, everyone take care."

After a brief farewell, Su Cheng did not linger and led a large group of illusory figures back to the outer edge of the Five Desolate Domains.

"I never expected to run into people from outside the region."

Wen Qimeng's eyes lit up as she listened. "I've traveled all over the country for so long, but I've never been to the outer realms. When I have the chance in the future, I'll definitely travel to different places and enjoy the scenery!"

Su Cheng casually tapped her head. "At your age, there's still plenty of space in the Five Desolate Regions for you to roam. Don't think about things that are so far away."

"Hehe, I'm just thinking about it."

Seeing her smiling with her eyes crinkled, Su Chengyi chuckled softly, his gaze returning to the soft, bluish-purple jade in his palm.

【Illusory Azure Jade, Spiritual Mystery Material (Item from the Realm of Immortality)】

"The treasures in different regions seem to differ somewhat."

Su Cheng temporarily put away the gift and gazed intently into the distance.

"However, the most urgent task at present is to reopen the passage and return to the Five Desolate Domains."
