Chapter 426 Taiyuan Ancient City
Chapter 426 Taiyuan Ancient City
The ancient city of Taiyuan is the most expensive city among all the cities that Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi have visited so far.
"Why are you standing there? Hurry up and go in after handing in the spirit stone. I remind you that the houses near the city center are not for you to live in. It is best to stay away from there." Thinking that the two of them must come from other low-level small worlds, the male cultivator Inevitably reminded.
After thanking the male cultivator, Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi immediately left the city gate and walked towards the city.
The houses in the ancient city of Taiyuan are very dilapidated, but as long as there is no fighting in the city, there is no problem for people to live in.
Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi saw inns and other shops in the city, and the most important thing was that these shops were open.
Counting from when they were teleported in, it took at most three hours, but these people even opened a shop.
The more Shangguan Xuanyi thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and asked suspiciously: "Ling Han, do you think this is the place where geniuses are tested?"
"Ask someone, and you'll know." Seeing the situation in the city, Xiao Linghan became more and more suspicious that they had entered some secret realm.
"People won't see us as fools, will they?"
Xiao Linghan nodded: "It's really possible."
Regardless of whether this is a place where geniuses are tested or not, others will definitely treat them as fools.After all, both of them were teleported in, and they didn't even know where this place was.
Thinking of being treated like a fool made Shangguan Xuanyi feel uncomfortable all over. "Then don't ask, let's find a place to live first, maybe we can get the information we want."
"can."
Afterwards, Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi chose an inn named "Yu Sheng" and walked in.
When they entered the inn, they saw that there seemed to be only two people in the huge inn, one of them had a late-stage fusion, and the other was a mid-stage fusion.Moreover, they are not very old, and they all look like young people, so they seem a bit out of place as the owner and clerk of the inn.
Seeing that the inn he opened finally welcomed two guests, Yu Sheng couldn't help asking, "Are the two fellow Taoists going to stay at the inn?"
Xiao Linghan nodded: "Well, just one room."
Yu Sheng immediately said with a smile on his face, "Two thousand spirit stones."
With previous experience, the two felt that there seemed to be no low-grade or middle-grade spirit stones in this place, and guessed that the shopkeeper should also be talking about high-grade spirit stones.
Xiao Linghan took out two thousand high-grade spirit stones and put them on the counter.
Yu Sheng put away the spirit stones, and said to Zhang Lusheng, who was putting spirit wine on the side, "Junior Brother Zhang, take the two fellow Taoists to Room No. [-] first."
"Okay, Senior Brother Yu."
Zhang Lusheng immediately put down the work in his hands, and came to Xiao Linghan and the two: "Two friends, please follow me."
"It's work."
Zhang Lusheng led the two of them through the lobby and into a building behind.
As he walked, he said, "Under Yu Xi, Zhang Lusheng, may I ask which small world the two fellow Taoists come from?"
Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi looked at each other calmly, now it seems that they have really entered the genius trial ground.
Immediately Xiao Linghan replied: "I am Xiao Linghan, this is my Taoist companion Shangguan Xuanyi. We come from a relatively backward small world, and I guess Zhang Daoyou has never heard of it. I don't know which world Zhang Daoyou are from?"
Zhang Lusheng came from the big world, and when Xiao Linghan said that they came from the small world, he naturally thought that the two of them were ignorant bumpkins.
When it occurred to him to show off, he said it all at once.
"I come from Haotian Realm, which is considered a big world. This time we have 2 people from Haotian Realm. The quota is very tight, and I almost didn't get in."
2 people?
They only have 5000 people in the Profound Sky Realm, only a quarter of others.
"By the way, when we entered the city, the fellow daoist who received the city fee told us that it was farther away from the center of the city. Does fellow daoist Zhang know who are the people living there?"
"The people living there are all the sons of heaven. It is for your own good that you don't go there. With the cultivation bases of Fellow Daoist Xiao and Shangguan Daoist, it is really not suitable to go there."
When talking about the people living in the city center, Zhang Lusheng looked yearning.
As soon as Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi arrived in the ancient city of Taiyuan, they discovered that most of their cultivation bases were above the fusion stage, so they changed the revealed cultivation bases to the initial fusion stage.
Obviously, in Zhang Lusheng's eyes, the cultivation base of the two at the beginning of their fusion was very low, very low.
During the conversation, the three of them had already entered a room. Seeing that Zhang Lusheng was about to leave, Xiao Linghan handed him a space ring: "We are new here, and the elders in the family are not familiar with this place, so we don't know anything. Two. Lest we offend someone we can't afford to offend, and lose our lives in vain."
Zhang Lusheng took the space ring, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and found 10 yuan of high-grade spirit stones inside.After accepting the ring and opening the formation in the room, he said: "Our Haotian Realm belongs to the big world, and we came in ten days earlier than the people in the small world. There are still several big worlds like ours, but they are all divided into different areas." The area within a radius of ten thousand miles of the ancient city of Taiyuan is considered to be the power of our Haotian Realm, and the rest of the city is also controlled by the monks of the Great World. There are still many dangerous areas, and no one will occupy those places."
Shangguan Xuanyi asked curiously: "Why do you want to occupy a city? Didn't we come here to find cultivation resources?"
Zhang Lusheng saw the two people's eyes full of seeking knowledge, and thought to himself: I don't know where these two people come from, they don't even know these common sense.
After coughing, he said, "This is a test of geniuses. There are not only chances, but also many tests. There will be a wave of beasts every ten years. Whether we can hold the city depends on the leadership of the geniuses. Resilience, combat effectiveness, etc. If you perform well, you may get the treasures and inheritance bestowed by the immortal."
Xiao Linghan: "..."
Shangguan Xuanyi: "..."
So how did the cheap master spend the 100 years here?
He didn't even know about such an important and important matter!
Seeing that the two seemed to be shocked by his news, Zhang Lusheng was secretly proud, and then said: "The people living in the center of the city are all talented disciples of the three major sects. Those talents are the sons of heaven, the darlings of heaven."
Zhang Lusheng intentionally half-spoken to arouse the curiosity of the two of them, as if "Quickly ask me!" was written on his face.
"Appreciate further details."
Zhang Lusheng said enviously: "Those people with the lowest cultivation have reached the peak of the fusion stage, and the highest cultivation has reached the peak of the refining stage. I believe it will not be long before someone breaks through the Mahayana stage. If they are lucky enough to be favored by the immortals, It is estimated that after going out, it will be able to fly directly."
He is now 290 years old, and he has only reached a mid-term cultivation base, while those people are about his age, but their cultivation base is more than one level higher than his.
The gap is too far to make people jealous.
Hearing this, Xiao Linghan and Shangguan Xuanyi were secretly surprised, although their cultivation speed was a bit slower than Lu Luonan's.But these are orthodox monks, and they all practice step by step. To be able to have such a cultivation base is indeed considered a genius.
However, the cheap master said that there are many evil cultivators and devil cultivators in it, and it is impossible to cultivate at this level.
Thinking of this, Xiao Linghan continued to ask: "Are there no monks with higher cultivation?"
"It's not that tall, how high do you think their cultivation is?" Zhang Lusheng looked at Xiao Linghan in surprise, it's already monstrous to have such a cultivation before the age of three hundred.
Could it be that such a cultivation base is still low?
Xiao Linghan saw such a big reaction from Zhang Lusheng, it seemed that he didn't know the existence of evil cultivators.
"Does Fellow Daoist Zhang know when the first beast tide will come?"
"I don't know the exact time, anyway, within three years." Zhang Lusheng stretched out three fingers to gesture.
"So fast?" Shangguan Xuanyi asked suspiciously, a beast swarm only occurs every ten years, shouldn't the first beast swarm be ten years later?
Seeing the doubts of the two, Zhang Lusheng said mysteriously: "Of course there is a reason for this."
"I also hope that Fellow Daoist Zhang will not hesitate to enlighten me."
When Xiao Linghan saw that this guy was half-talking, he knew it was a secret, and wanted to search for the soul directly.
But thinking that searching for souls has an impact on people's souls after all, plus this guy is willing to say.
The only downside is that the ink is a little bit.
Zhang Lusheng slightly pulled the distance between the three of them, and then whispered: "The first beast tide is mainly to eliminate some people with low cultivation and unlucky luck, such as those monks with lower levels from the small world."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhang Lusheng remembered that the two people in front of him were also from the small world.Immediately smiled and said: "Of course, the monks in the small world I am talking about naturally do not include Taoist friends Xiao and Shangguan Xuanyi. Like two Taoist friends who can cultivate to the fusion stage in the small world, they are also very talented and powerful. The luck is extraordinary, and it is not comparable to those monks in the stage of transformation."
Is that so!
It's no wonder that every time the cultivators who come into the Profound Sky Realm can get out alive, only one percent of the total number of people, and this one percent is probably just luck.
When Xiao Linghan thought of this, he felt a little heartbroken. This was completely treating the people in their small world as cannon fodder.He asked again: "Does Zhang Daoyou's family run an inn?"
"No! Why do you ask that?"
"Isn't it? Why do fellow Daoists Zhang want to open an inn here?"
"Master told us to come here to open an inn, so that when the monsters come to attack the city, we don't have to go out to fight."
Shangguan Xuanyi: "..."
Xiao Linghan: "..."
"You really have a good master! Does that mean that people who run a shop don't have to go out to deal with monsters?" Xiao Linghan looked at Zhang Lusheng with a complicated expression, feeling that their master treated them as delicate flowers.
"There is only one person in each store and you don't have to go out to fight. Brother Yu said that my cultivation is low, so I just need to stay in the inn."
As soon as Zhang Lusheng talked about Yu Sheng, Yu Sheng sent him a voice transmission.
Zhang Lusheng got up immediately: "Two friends, it is best to stay in the room at night and not go out. I will leave first, and you will call me if you need it."
"Thank you Zhang Daoyou."
After sending Zhang Lusheng away, Shangguan Xuanyi said suspiciously: "Ling Han, you don't think Master has entered a fake genius trial site?"
Otherwise, why is it completely different from what others say?
Moreover, Master's experience seems to have nothing to do with the name "Trial of Genius".
"It's possible." Xiao Linghan thought that Ouyang Xiuqi's experience really had nothing to do with the "Trial of Genius".
"Forget it, don't think about it, anyway, there are 100 years. Let's rest today and talk about the rest tomorrow." After speaking, Shangguan Xuanyi had already taken off his clothes and shoes, and climbed onto the bed.
Xiao Linghan looked at his daughter-in-law's actions in one go, and couldn't laugh or cry.After that, she also went to bed and hugged him to enjoy this moment of tranquility together.
This space has only night and day, but no stars, moon and sun.
night.
In the dark night, as if boundless thick ink was smeared heavily on the sky, the whole world seemed to be still, without a single sound.
In the silent ancient city of Taiyuan, a scream suddenly came out: "Ahhh..."
