"Senior, are we going to the Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest?" Seeing that Qing Xun led them out of the border of the Yunlan Empire and into the vast Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest, Aotian couldn't help but ask curiously.

"No, we're going through the Northern Wilderness and head to the Northern Continent!" Aoi replied.

"Northern Continent?" Aotian was a little surprised, he had also seen a little bit of records about the Northern Continent in some of the family's classics, and Zhilu Dao was in the north of the vast and almost boundless Northern Wilderness Gusen, and there seemed to be a more vast continent, called the Northern Continent.

However, at that time, Aotian had always felt that the Northern Continent was like the legendary God Realm, which was not really the kind of place, but he didn't expect that he was going to that vast continent now.

Thinking of this, Aotian couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart.

"That's right, but the place I'm going to let you go to is the Tianwu Academy located in the Free City of the Northern Continent!"

"Tianwu Academy?" Aotian glanced at Qing Xun, the look of surprise on his face was even stronger, he was completely unfamiliar with the name of this academy, and what kind of free city, he had never heard of it.

"Tianwu Academy is a place where countless geniuses have really gathered, it is by no means comparable to your empire's Ice Heart Sect and Yunyue Palace, in the future, if you study and cultivate there well, it will definitely allow you to grow very well!"

Hearing this, Aotian was even more excited in his heart, a place where countless geniuses had really gathered, and even the Ice Heart Sect and Yunyue Palace couldn't compare to it, what kind of place would it be?

Aotian began to fantasize wildly, and his heart was full of yearning.

"After I take you through the Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest, I'll give you detailed information about the Tianwu Academy and the City of Freedom, and then you can see for yourself and get an idea of where you're going to live next!" Qing Xun said again after a moment of silence.

"Well, that's good!" Aotian nodded, his hot eyes looked at the place where heaven and earth met in front of him, and a stream of blood and strength secretly welled up in his heart.

"Tianwu Academy!" Aotian said secretly in his heart.

More than a month later, Qing Xun finally took Aotian and Mu Ling'er through the Northern Wilderness Gusen and entered the boundary of the Northern Continent.

Along the way, Aotian truly appreciated the vastness of the Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest, as well as its danger, according to his estimate, the Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest is definitely as big as dozens of Yunlan Empires, and the danger of its central location is definitely not what he can set foot on now.

On the way, they encountered many attacks from flying monsters, some walking alone, some in groups, and even level 6 and level 7 dragon flying beasts.

But fortunately, Qing Xun's strength was strong enough, so those demonic beasts eventually either died under Qing Xun's sword, or they were thrown away by Qing Xun's flying sword at a very fast speed.

Through Qing Xun's battles again and again, Aotian can roughly judge that Qing Xun is at least a Martial Emperor-level powerhouse, and her supernatural powers are extremely strong, especially the earth-level high-grade sword she uses, which is even more powerful.

After appreciating the demeanor of the ground-level sword, Aotian also couldn't wait to refine a ground-level sword.

......

Out of the Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest, Qing Xun took Aotian and Mu Ling'er to fly for less than half a day, and he had already seen the town inhabited by humans.

However, Qing Xun still didn't stop, but waited until the sun went down before taking Aotian and Mu Ling'er to a city, and then found an inn and stayed.

After dinner, Aoi called Aoten to her room.

"Aotian, I'll send you here, now you are already in the territory of the Tianming Empire, and the City of Freedom is in the northeast of the Tianming Empire, the rest of the way is up to you!" Qing Xun said in a soft voice.

"Are you leaving?" Aotian was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Qing Xun to leave so soon, and he was a little reluctant in his heart.

"Yes, didn't I promise you before that I would protect your family for you, so I want to return to the Yunlan Empire as soon as possible!" said Qing Xun with a slight smile.

"Thank you seniors! The kindness of the seniors is really unrequitable!" Hearing Qing Xun's answer, Ao Tian was extremely grateful in his heart, and knelt on the ground at the moment, ready to kowtow to Qing Xun to express his gratitude.

"You're welcome, get up quickly, Aotian!" Qing Xun stretched out his hand and pulled Aotian up, then turned his head slightly, and then took a letter on the coffee table on the side, handed it to Aotian, ......and said in a deep voice: "You take this letter, and when you arrive in the Free City, take this letter to Tianwu Academy, with this letter, Tianwu Academy will definitely allow you and Ling'er to stay there to live!"

Qing Xun paused, and suddenly took out two scrolls from the storage ring and handed them to Aotian: "You also have these two scrolls, one is a detailed introduction to the City of Freedom and Tianwu Academy, and the other is a map of the Northern Continent, next, you can use this map to find the route to the City of Freedom, and you will definitely use this map in the future." ”

"Well, thank you, senior!" Aotian took the letter and scroll, gave it a brief look, and then put it all into the storage ring.

......

After returning to his room again, Aotian immediately took out the two scrolls that Kaoru had given him just now, but he first opened the map, looked at it, found the location of Freedom City, and then roughly drew a route to Freedom City in his mind.

The City of Freedom is located in the northeast of the Tianming Empire, its east is a vast sea area called the Heavenly Demon Sea, the south is bordered by the Tianming Empire and the Mu King Empire, the west is also bordered by several small countries, and the north is connected to an ancient mountain range called the Ice Sky Mountains, and from the map, the Ice Sky Mountains are also extremely vast.

"Bingtian Mountain Range?" Aotian's heart moved, and he suddenly felt that this name was extremely familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly remembered: "Bingtian Mountain Range, where Ice Lingzhi grows, it turns out that Bingtian Mountain Range is here in the Northern Continent, no wonder I have never heard of it before!"

"Ha Luha, that's great, in the future, I can go to the Ice Heaven Mountain Range to find the Ice Lingzhi! As long as I have the Ice Lingzhi, the medicinal materials will be ready!" Aotian was very excited, but when he thought that he didn't know when he would be able to return to the Yunlan Empire, Aotian's heart couldn't help but feel a little lost.

Now that he is in this northern continent, even if he finds the ice lingzhi immediately, he can't send it to the Ao family.

"I want to become stronger, I want to become stronger!" Now Aotian's incomparable desire is strong, and he knows very well that if he can also have the strength of Qing Xun, he can freely cross the Northern Wilderness Ancient Forest and return to the Yunlan Empire, and he no longer has to fear Yunyue Palace.

At that time, he was also able to slaughter Chu Tianyue with his own hands, and avenge Zhou Zhirui, Zheng Tiansong, and all the dead disciples of the Bingxin Sect.

After thinking about it for a while, Aotian retracted his mind and continued to check the map of the Northern Continent, but this map was too big, and if Aotian carefully read every place name, he would definitely be able to read it for one night.

So he just glanced at it, put the map away, and then opened another scroll and read it carefully.

Next, he and Mu Ling'er were going to live in the Tianwu Academy in the Free City, for him, it was a new world realm, and he was full of curiosity about it, so he couldn't wait to learn about this new world world.

According to the introduction in the scroll, the Free City was originally a battlefield between humans and the Sea Devils, thousands of years ago, the war between the Sea Demons and several empires in the Northern Continent continued, and the war lasted for almost hundreds of years, and there were many corpses of humans and Sea Demons left on that battlefield, and it is said that the land of the battlefield has completely turned blood red.

But later, the martial saint who was famous on the mainland at that time, Yunmu Qingtian, brought his three good brothers to that battlefield together. With a single sword, he killed the Sea Demon Emperor, the supreme ruler of the Sea Demon Clan at that time, causing the Sea Demon Clan's army to collapse in an instant, and finally retreated to many islands in the Heavenly Demon Sea in the east.

Since then, the war between humans and the Sea Demon Clan has finally ended completely, and that battlefield is no longer useful, so Cloud Curtain Qingtian and his three good brothers established a city on that battlefield, which does not belong to any country, but people from any country can freely enter and exit the city, so it is named the City of Freedom.

Later, Cloud Curtain Qingtian built the largest martial arts academy on the continent in the City of Freedom, named Tianwu Academy, to recruit students from the entire continent.

His three brothers also moved their families to the Free City, guarding the city they built together for generations.

But just a few years after the completion of the Free City, the cloud curtain Qingtian actually found a strange spring in an inconspicuous mountain peak more than ten miles away from the Free City, which contained magical energy, which could not only help martial cultivators quench their bodies, nourish the meridians, and make the body more tenacious, but also be able to cut down the hair and wash the marrow, so that the body became more suitable for cultivating blood qi, and if you cultivate in that spring, it can definitely greatly increase the cultivation speed.

Therefore, Cloud Curtain Qingtian immediately relocated the Tianwu Academy to the area around that mountain, and the originally inconspicuous peak was also named Lingquan Mountain, which became a magic weapon for the Tianwu Academy to cultivate one amazing genius after another.

Now, after thousands of years of development, the original Free City has already become the first city in the entire Northern Continent, and its area has expanded more than ten times, which is already comparable to the territory of some small countries.

And those three families at the beginning have also developed into the three super martial arts families in the City of Freedom, the Mo family, the Situ family, and the You family.

The Mo family is proficient in the art of strong sealing, the Situ family is proficient in the art of weird vocal music, and the You family is good at the mysterious puppet technique, and the three major families are the top super families in the entire Northern Continent.

Not only that, after thousands of years of development and changes, there are also many small martial cultivation families in the Free City, as well as powerful forces and gangs of different sizes, but the Tianwu Academy has always been the power center of the Free City, and the three major families are the three major guardians of the Free City.

In this way, they supported the city together, standing in the east of the northern continent, and did not fall for thousands of years.
