Shen Yunyu and the elders of the Vast World agree to visit the Void Realm at the invitation of the Primordial Talisman Sect. They marvel at the immense power and vastness of the Primordial Talisman Sect, which has conquered over a thousand Great Thousand Worlds and boasts numerous Mahayana Ancestors. Their curiosity is piqued by the sect's mysterious leader, whose power and influence are so great that even Mahayana cultivators remain loyal, and whose presence seems to erase memories.

"How do you know that only Immortals can master Immortal Techniques? It’s possible that the mysterious Sect Leader, an extraordinary talent, could master Immortal Techniques with a Mahayana body; it’s not entirely impossible."

"Indeed, only by accomplishing such impossible feats can one manage this Super Sect and surpass many Mahayana Cultivators; it’s practically like a True Immortal living in this world."

"It seems I’m getting more and more eager to see that Lord Sect Master; I wonder what kind of presence they actually possess."

Numerous Integration Cultivators engage in heated discussions.

Their faces filled with anticipation, eager to head to the Void Realm for a glimpse.

Shen Yunyu naturally shares the same thought; it would be a great pity not to meet such a legendary figure.

...

Several days later.

A group of High-tier Cultivators from the Vast World, including Shen Yunyu, arrived at the Void Realm through the Heaven-Reaching Bridge.

"Is this the legendary Kunpeng City?"

"It’s said to be one of the Four Great Sacred Cities of the Void Realm, built by the True Spirit Kunpeng."

"Indeed, this city is considered the center of all realms; cultivators from other worlds first come to Kunpeng City."

Shen Yunyu and others curiously observe their surroundings.

They discover that they have arrived in an immense void nest.

This place is entirely different from any city he has seen before.

At this moment, everyone is carefully examining this legendary city.

Kunpeng City is vast beyond measure, without defined boundaries, immeasurable by land—— its core district spans billions of miles, with floating islands, dimensional areas, realm outposts extending like the Star River, endless to behold.

Overall, it resembles a heavenly Kunpeng, head high in the chaos, wings covering the heavens; its body forms the main city, wings transform into billions of floating archipelagos, tail feathers scattered into infinite space fragments, naturally embodying the Dao Principles of "a city built in myriad realms, a nest encompassing the void."

The city’s foundation is not mere earth but a union of Divine Crystal and void ore, deeply embedded with the spirit vein source running through the Void Realm, Spiritual Qi rich enough to condense into liquid Spiritual Mist, flowing through the streets, cleansing and reinforcing meridians with every breath.

The most astounding feature is that every inch of ground, every brick of the city, each structure, and even the air is engraved with mysterious Dao Patterns—— a Void Dao Pattern Array personally set by the True Spirit Kunpeng, with billions of patterns gently flowing like living beings, interweaving with glows of gold, purple, blue, and black.

Sometimes converging into the forms of Kunpeng, Cyan Dragon, White Tiger, and other phenomena, sometimes transforming into spatial vortices, dimensional rifts, emitting a majestic oppressive force that dominates the heavens and connects myriad realms.

These Dao Patterns are the soul of the city: internally, they weave into infinite spatial barriers, allowing one city to contain myriad landscapes—— it has tall buildings rising from the ground, Immortal Mountains floating in cloud seas, and folded dimension Secret Realms, concealing vast worlds within inches;

externally, they transform into billions of spatial channels, connecting all realms, anyone reaching Kunpeng City can travel to any world via Dao Pattern nodes, without crossing chaos, immune to space-time turbulence, considered a "step across myriad realms, reaching nine heavens in a snap" void nest, with ease in blocking external enemies.

"It’s too vast, Kunpeng City is truly too vast."

"At a glance, you can’t see the end."

"It’s practically a Small Thousand World, how was it constructed?"

"It’s said that this True Spirit Kunpeng is the spirit pet of the Sect Leader of the Primordial Talisman Sect, built by their supreme power."

"Impossible, True Spirits are untamable, how did that mysterious Sect Leader manage it?"

Shen Yunyu and others are in awe.

They feel like country bumpkins entering the city, their horizons broadened.

Even though they are Integration Cultivators, they’ve never seen such sights.

In fact, they had learned a bit about Kunpeng City before.

Kunpeng City is centered around the Central Kunpeng Main Hall, radiating outward into nine districts, thirty-six markets, seventy-two floating archipelagos, arranged closely following the Celestial Count of the week, advancing layer by layer, with meticulous order.

Core District・Kunpeng Main Hall: Located at the highest point in the city’s center, constructed entirely from Primordial Immortal Jade and Stellar Gold, reaching a height of a hundred thousand feet, its roof covered in billions of glazed divine tiles, each tile etched with a space Dao Pattern, reflecting seven-colored space-time glows under sunlight.

The main hall dome is shaped like a giant Kunpeng spreading its wings, with the Core Orb of Myriad Realms suspended above, emitting a gentle halo, suppressing all city Dao Patterns, maintaining the stability of all realms.

Inside the hall is the top-tier venue for discussions across the heavens, accessible only to Mahayana Cultivators for deliberating realm rules and handling cross-realm disputes.

Nine Districts・High-tier Cultivators’ Residence: Surrounding the main hall, each district is overseen by Integration Cultivators, with diverse architectural styles, yet each exceptionally grand.

Tianshu District: Primarily the habitat for Void Refining Cultivators, palace clusters stretching thousands of miles, roofs adorned with spirit feathers and divine crystals, amidst clouds and fog, cultivators can be seen traveling with swords, Spiritual Cranes, and Cyan Luan birds flying through.

Ziweii District: Gatherings of top Noble Families’ residences, mansions hidden within forests of Spirit Wood and Immortal Trees, pavilions, terraces, and corridors built from rare spiritual materials, with dimensional medicine gardens and spiritual spring pools for High-tier Cultivators to quietly cultivate and discuss Dao.

Ziwei District: Residence area for powerful Loose Cultivators, lacking the regulations of sects and noble families, but dotted with exquisite caves, suspended lofts, each equipped with High-tier Arrays, concealing auras, suitable for solitary cultivators to enter seclusion.

Thirty-six Markets・Treasure Trading Hub: Surrounding the nine districts are bustling markets, countless shops and stalls stretching billions of miles, lively with sounds, Spiritual Qi and treasure glows interwoven, exceptionally bustling.

Street-side shops mostly established by High-tier Cultivators, selling unique treasures across the heavens: Innate Spiritual Materials, Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures, Crossing the Tribulation Elixirs, rare Cultivation Techniques, extradimensional Spirit Treasures, and even interface coordinates, Dao Pattern blueprints—anything imaginable, available for purchase.

Stalls are even more varied, with cultivators from various races, ancient Demon Race, and alien races trading; some barter directly, others transact using high-tier Spirit Stones and Immortal Stones, with constant sound of haggling, accompanied by the crisp clash of Magical Treasures, clear cries of Spirit Birds, and cultivators’ laughter.

Seventy-two Floating Archipelagos・External Residences and Outposts: Beyond the markets, countless floating archipelagos suspended in cloud seas, interconnected by Spirit Charm Rainbow Bridges and Space Teleportation Arrays.

Here reside mid to High-tier Cultivators, emissaries of various realms, alien race communities, architectures ranging from elegant to archaic, revealing the style of myriad domains; between these archipelagos, spirit boats, flying carriages, sword-bearing cultivators shuttle back and forth like looms, incessantly flowing.

"Haha, welcome to the Void Realm Kunpeng City everyone."

"Didn’t expect you all to arrive so quickly."

"I thought you might come a bit later."

Responsible for greeting them is Zhao Lei Hu, an Integration Elder of the Primordial Talisman Sect, who appears before Shen Yunyu and the others, exuding a powerful aura, far beyond a typical Integration Great Power.

He looks at everyone with a smiling face.

In fact, he has a purpose this time, which is to intimidate this group of ordinary world’s Integration Cultivators.

After all, these foreign cultivators always have some who want to stir trouble.

If they don’t recognize the gap between themselves, there might be frequent uprisings, disrupting the development of the Primordial Talisman Sect.

So the Sect still needs to bring these native cultivators to the Void Realm for a visit, to intimidate everyone.

It’s undeniable that this method is highly effective.

Since those native cultivators realized the strength of the Primordial Talisman Sect and the Void Realm, each has behaved obediently.

At least until an unforeseen incident occurs, these native cultivators remain highly loyal.

And for the Sect, that’s sufficient.

"Elder Zhao, it’s truly an eye-opener, didn’t expect to finally witness the legendary Kunpeng City."

"It’s said to be built by the True Spirit Kunpeng, I wonder if that’s true or false?"

Shen Yunyu and others curiously ask, looking at the elder.

"Of course it’s true, this city was personally created by Lord Kungpeng."

"In some sense, it’s also considered the nest of Lord Kungpeng."

"Also regarded as one of the Void Realm’s strongest fortresses."

"The entire city is essentially a spatial labyrinth."

"Different places are independent spatial bodies."

"Acting rashly in Kunpeng City may easily lead to getting lost."

Elder Zhao Lei Hu shows a face of reverence.

After all, currently Little Kunpeng Ming has completely matured, already a Mahayana Cultivator.

And within the Mahayana Realm, their power is considered supreme.

Therefore, Kunpeng Ming has become the guardian Divine Beast of the Primordial Talisman Sect.
