An hour later.
In the city hundreds of miles away from the sea shore.
Sam initially thought the city would be in the middle of the forest. However, contrary to his expectations, there is no sign of even a single tree around the city.
Even the city itself is almost like an ancient ruin. There are not many intact buildings. Most of them are destroyed. The city is full of signs of past battles and struggles.
As for the people inside, there are barely around a thousand people. That is all. Out of them the majority are in mortal plane. A few hundred Astral plane cultivators. As for the fifty odd cultivators that surrounded Sam at the beach, they are the only Divine Plane cultivators in the city.
Sam was welcomed inside and was taken to the personal office of the leader in the central building.
The leader has calmed down and she arranged some drinks and food for Sam.
