Chapter 534: 534                                    
           									Three days afterwards . 
          
The Azure Dragon Territory East Sea .  The normally tranquil ocean was currently thronging with escape lights .  Every sort of strange flight magic weapon gathered together over the East Sea, from soaring clouds and mist to flying beasts, from naval battleships to sea monsters, there was everything .  Even the Great Liang Dynasty’s Purple Cloud East Approaches could not compare to such a spectacular sight .  Innumerable cultivators rushed over from every direction of Liangshan Continent . 
In the surroundings of the East Sea were several hundred pavilions .  These pavilions were not markets at all .  They were specially prepared for those cultivators who were unable to go to the East Sea .  Even if some cultivators were unable to enter the East Sea, they could still reap plenty of benefits on the outside .  Just that dazzling, fantastical treasure alone was enough to be a feast for the eyes .  
These pavilions specially sold a few “Water Escape Pearls,” “Water Avoidance Talismans,” “Water Barrier Talismans,” and more for qualified cultivators to buy .  
On this day, a magnificent dragon boat rode the heavens . 
That dragon boat was more than a hundred meters long, and it was carved with dragons and phoenixes, engraved with cryptic talisman script, magic circles layered together .  In particular was that as the dragon boat traversed the sky, underneath it sparkled with stars like a galaxy, extremely dazzling .  Even several of the Great Sects’ arrays could not compare .  That dragon boat circled around in the sky, and then it directly spiraled downwards, ignoring the shocked gazes of everyone . 
Upon touching the sea’s surface, there was immediately a wave, a river of stars . 
“Is that a Heavenly Spirit Astral Treasure?”
“Never heard of it, it looks to be very powerful . ”
“Which sect has so much capital? Tsk, tsk, even the Most High Path’s ‘Straight Into Clear Skies’ completely cannot compare . ”
“Could it be the Great Liang’s imperial family or the Great Circle Castle’s Noble Star??”
Everyone chatted .  The greatest interest of these cultivators that were unable to enter the ocean depths was to look for clues from their previous position every time a sect arrived, and they never grew tired of the gossip .  This was considered some delight . 
That dragon boat was the Heavenly River Star Riding Boat, and its owner was naturally Su Xing . 
Su Xing stood on the deck with his arms crossed .  The Heavenly River Star Riding Boat possessed multiple defensive barriers .  It was impervious to water and flame, and an instant later, the Star Riding Boat already dove several thousand li beneath the East Sea .  Lin Yingmei stood beside him, not uttering a word . 
In the silent atmosphere, they heard only the whoosh of water in the surroundings . 
                            
In the boundless depths, after a black tide, the Star Riding Boat suddenly stopped .  A wave barrier opened . 
Su Xing took out the Crystal Token of the Treasure Banquet that Long Nü gave him .  The token moved in the water .  The barrier opened, and the Star Riding Boat melded into the barrier .  Then, countless water-lights shot back . Wu Xinjie and the other girls left the hold in succession . 
Following the disappearance of the light, everything in front of them suddenly became clear .  The scene in front of them suddenly made the silent Su Xing and others astonished . 
What lay before them was a magnificent sight .  Large crystal palaces were continuous and unending, just like a mountain range spread out along the entire East Sea’s seabed .  The tallest palace among them seemed to rise up out of the abyss .  Coral was piled up, with glittering pearls and every sort priceless treasure and gem glinting .  Countless cultivators shuttled back and forth through the palaces .  The seawater outside the palace bubbled up, yet the crowd inside the giant palace was no stained by water at all .  They were cleaner than on the surface . 
Upon closer inspection, these continuous palaces astonishingly were like a giant prostrate dragon . 
This was the renowned Crystal Palace of Liangshan Continent’s Four Territories . 
This palace was named because this palace used “Blue Wave Essence Crystal” in its construction .  The ones in command of this palace was the “Long”1 clan, thus, it received the name Crystal Dragon Palace .  In actuality, rather than saw it was a sect, it was more accurate to say they were deeply-rooted, entangled generational family . 
“How incredible . ” Su Xing already had been impressed by every kind of Liangshan Continent’s wonders .  He had even thought that he was already calm as water .  Today when he saw the Crystal Dragon Palace’s towering majesty, he still sucked in a breath . 
The Crystal Dragon Palace’s construction in this fashion was already awe-inspiring .  What made Su Xing even more astonished was that the construction was surprisingly at a depth of ten thousand zhang .  Although the East Sea was warm, normal cultivators were completely unable to enter or leave the ocean territory . 
“This barrier is very powerful . ” Tang Lianxin issued her opinion .  Compared to luxurious palaces, the Solitary Star cared more about the magic weapon that was obstructing the ten thousand fathoms of seawater . 
“Reportedly, the Crystal Dragon Palace has passed down a Prehistoric Spirit Treasure, ‘Connecting Heaven Ocean Settling Pearl . ’ This treasure is extremely exceptional .  It can create an astral space . ” Wu Xinjie muttered . 
Su Xing looked .  As expected, several corners of the large Crystal Dragon Palace had resplendent flickering lights .  It appeared that was the power of the Connecting Heaven Sea Settling Pearl . 
“If the Connecting Heaven Ocean Settling Pearl is so powerful, would they give it to Long Nü to participate in the Star Duels?” Su Xing asked . 
                            
“There are a total of twenty-four Connecting Heaven Ocean Settling Pearls, but to obstruct the water, the Crystal Dragon Palace requires at least twelve, and this treasure is very taxing on magic energy .  A Star Master can control it but with great difficulty .  She should not have one . ” Wu Xinjie analyzed: “After the Three Heavenly Books, the majority of Star Master’s sects will confer Spirit Treasures in return for ascending Maiden Mountain .  Even if Long Nü used one, it would only be in these months . ”
Su Xing thought so as well .  There was nothing to worry about . 
“Then let us see this Treasure Banquet . ”
Treasure Banquet . 
The Crystal Dragon Palace went as far as being Liangshan Continent’s feast .  Altogether, it was held for seven days and seven nights .  The Treasure Banquet was split into four ranks based on cultivation, Heaven, Earth, Dark and Yellow .  Each level had its own auction house and market .  The Crystal Dragon Palace was split into four sectors, East, West, South and North .  There were over ten thousand imperial palaces .  Let alone the Crystal Dragon Palace’s enormity, it was in fact more like a giant underwater city .  Ninety percent of the imperial palaces were related to peddling .  Just the number of vendor booths exceeded thirty thousand .  These shops mostly were fixed in the Crystal Dragon Palace year-round, and when the Treasure Banquet began, the vendor booths would reach millions with several transactions .
