The ship quickly sped forward, reaching the Divine Martial Continent soon after it came into view. Each disciple stared in awe at the landmass before them, as it was already grander than anything they had seen before.

Expansive forests with towering trees a mile high stretched out as far as the eye could see, while mountains far taller than any mountain they had seen before stretched off in the distance. Raging rivers carved through the valleys between the mountains, the power of the water shocking as well.

It was as if everything in the Divine Martial Continent was larger, stronger, more profound, than anything they had seen on the Yuan Continent.

The coast of the continent was a mix of tall cliffs, which eventually blended into oceanside beaches. Many port cities and towns were easily visible from their high vantage point on the ship, which lined the coast as far as the eye could see.

As soon as the ship sped over the continent, each disciple felt a significant increase in natural Qi in the air. In fact, the natural Qi in the air at the moment was even higher than the most Qi dense places of the Yuan Continent.

"Why did the natural Qi suddenly increase so much as soon as we entered these lands?" one of the disciples couldn't help but ask Lilian, as it was quite odd to feel such a disparity in Qi at the coasts.

"The oceans absorb most of the Qi from the air, which is why the Qi felt thin until we reached these lands," Lilian explained.

The youths nodded their heads in understanding, before another youth decided to ask another question.

"Is the natural Qi this high everywhere?"

"The natural Qi here is actually quite thin when compared to the rest of the continent," Lilian replied, causing all those within the ship to widen their eyes in surprise. "In fact, the closer to the center of the continent you get, the denser the natural Qi. When we reach the main Heavenly Lightning Sect, I'm sure you will all be beyond shocked at what you feel."

'No wonder this place is a divine land for cultivation,' John mused internally. 'With the natural Qi this thick, cultivation would be several times faster than back in the Holy Lands. Is this how it's going to be all the time? Constantly having to fight uphill against people who spent their entire lives in such bountiful places?'

John shook his head at himself in a slightly self-defeated manner, as the location he had grown up in truly was a barren wasteland for cultivation. However, he would have it no other way, otherwise he would have never met his parents, or the Fenix Clan.

Roaar!

The dragon roared once more, catching the attention of all as it suddenly veered to the side and instantly sped in a different direction. The speed of the dragon increased significantly, quickly flying out of sight of everyone on the ship, and shocking them greatly at just how fast it had moved.

"It could move even faster?" John couldn't help but ask his master.

"Of course," Lilian replied. "However, this is as fast as this ship can go, and so it kept a pace that we could keep up with."

John remained silent upon hearing this, but his respect for the dragon only grew larger. Its power continued to shock him, and he didn't know how high it truly went. A thought suddenly came into John's mind, which he asked his master about.

"What is that dragon anyways? And why does it help our sect?" John asked Lilian.

The dragon was clearly incredibly powerful, yet it still helped out the Heavenly Lightning Sect branch every year.

Lilian remained silent for a moment before replying.

"The dragon is the companion of the Heavenly Lightning Sect Patriarch," Lilian explained. "Much like you and Kirii," she said while glancing at John. 

"The Patriarch of our sect huh? That's the first time I'm hearing about our main sect having a patriarch," John replied at the new information. 

"How strong is the Patriarch?" John couldn't help but ask.

"No idea," Lilian replied. "I've never seen him before, and have received no information regarding his cultivation level. I'm assuming he's at least as strong as my father," Lilian replied.

"As strong as Thunderzen?" John mused, as Thunderzen's strength was terrifying. However, it naturally made sense that the patriarch of the main sect was as strong or stronger than the sect leader of a branch sect.

John continued to talk to his master for a short while longer before he walked to one of the corners of the ship and sat down. His gaze pierced through the translucent floor of the ship to the land below, which still filled him with awe.

Different biomes, fantastically large beasts, and exotic vegetation entered his vision as the ship continued to speed forward over the Divine Martial Continent. Expansive cities and towering buildings continued to speed by below as well, giving a sense of scale to just how populated the Divine Martial Continent was.

Other flying ships also rapidly sailed by occasionally, some even grander than the one they were flying on. 

According to the documents they were given, the Divine Martial Continent was tens of times larger than the Yuan Continent, which was already freakishly large. John could hardly comprehend just how large the Divine Martial Continent was, but their journey started to add some scale to it.

Despite shooting forward at incredible speeds, the journey to the main Heavenly Lightning Sect still took nearly two weeks. The Heavenly Lightning Sect was located somewhere midway between the coast and the center of the continent, and yet it still took such a long period of time. 

'At this rate, it would take over two months for this ship to cross the Divine Martial Continent from one end to the other.'

Such a sense of scale was beyond what John could wrap his head around at the moment, and so he put such thoughts aside. He continued to focus on his cultivation, all while observing the land below. 

…

The sun hung high in the sky as the ship sped forward, when Lilian's voice suddenly entered everyone's ears.

"We have arrived."

Everyone raced to the front of the ship, at which point their faces all lit up in stunned shock. Before them, an incredibly expansive sect, far grander and more luxurious than anything they could have imagined came into view. 

John's eyes lit up as well as he took in the scene before him.

'The true Heavenly Lightning Sect!'
