Chapter 33 Arriving at Haoyuan City
It was midnight at this moment, and the Tianyuan River was very lively. Dragon-scaled fish were swarming in to join the fighting feast. The fish group expanded rapidly, and the red-eyed dragon-scaled fish threw their last bit of intelligence into the Java Kingdom, killing them endlessly.
Liu Qinghuan moved nervously close to the bottom of the river. If those crazy fish discovered this, he would have to shed his skin even if he died! After spending a lot of effort to avoid several scurrying fish, until he was very far away, he wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead. Fortunately, he was in the water. If he were on the shore, he might not have been able to find it. I was sweating profusely by now.
Turning his eyes, he looked up and saw the hazy moon in the sky at the water surface vacated by the departure of the dragon-scale fish. This is a good opportunity!
The Tianyuan River is extremely wide, with the distance between its two banks reaching hundreds of miles at its widest point. It is impossible to see from one end to the other. Fortunately, Liu Qinghuan came out of the maze passage and was close to the north bank of the river. Going up the river bank, the danger was much less, at least he didn't have to guard his back.
The journey was fairly smooth, except for a few passing fish that made him pause for a moment, and he soon approached the river. Just as he was about to get out of the water, he saw a dumbfounded dragon-scale fish spinning in circles and bumping directly into him.
…
Liu Qinghuan was speechless. The fish looked ahead with his mouth open, his face blank. It hit its head several times on invisible objects in front of it, and hit it a few more times happily.
Liu Qinghuan was extremely aggrieved. There were several fish not far away. He couldn't do it, but he had to do it. The character of the Dragon Scale Fish is that they love to join in the fun, are stupid and aggressive. If the behavior of this fish arouses the interest of other fish, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Looking at the very close water, my heart skipped a beat, and I raised my hand to draw out the flying sword, which flew into the sky in the blink of an eye.
The dragon-scaled fish that was playing happily suddenly saw something foreign. Its originally dull eyes quickly turned vicious, and its tail swung wildly - only an afterimage could be seen. It chased the flying sword and went up. sky.
----------------------------
Haoyuan City, located on the edge of Qushang Swamp, is the largest casual cultivator city in central Yunmengze Continent. Not only is the headquarters of the casual cultivator alliance here, but also the foreign affairs offices of various sects are stationed here. There are many shops in the city, selling everything from spiritual treasures and magic tools for immortal cultivators to clothes and skirts for mortals. And because it faces the Qushang Swamp, there are not tens of thousands, but thousands of monks who hunt monsters and find spiritual materials here all year round.
Since flying magic weapons are prohibited in the city, anyone who wants to enter the city must press the cloud button ten miles outside the city and enter the city on foot. At this moment, there is a long queue at the city gate. Just because half a year will be the Immortal Ascension Conference once every ten years, so there has been an endless stream of monks coming from all over the mainland in recent days, and young people account for the majority of them. .
Most of the people queuing up to enter the city here are immortal cultivators in the Qi-training stage, and none are in the foundation-building stage or above. They all have special passages that allow them to enter the city quickly.
"What's going on this year? The methods of recruiting people from the four major sects are a little different from before!" In the team, a middle-aged scribe in white clothes and a beautiful beard slowly shook his folding fan and was talking to his companion next to him.
His companion was a young man in his twenties or nineteen years old. Hearing this, he asked with great interest: "Oh? Brother Wen has always been well-informed. I wonder if you can tell me more in detail?"
"Don't you dare!" The middle-aged scribe symbolically cupped his hands and said a few words of humility, and then said in a condescending manner: "In previous years, most sects' entrance trials would be conducted in a few specific areas outside Qushang Swamp. It is safe. , and it can test the comprehensive ability of newcomers. This year, I haven’t heard of any big changes in other sects, but a friend of mine in the Shaoyang Sect quietly told me a few days ago..."
Having said this, the middle-aged scribe paused for a moment and saw that the people lining up around him were listening to him with their ears pricked up, especially the young man in green clothes behind him who was listening intently. He couldn't help but feel proud in his heart: "He said that this year's young man The introductory trial of the Yang sect will be held together with the other three sects in the Great Xumi Qiankun Pagoda.”
"The Great Xumi Qiankun Pagoda?" Everyone who heard this took a breath: "Is it the Wenshi Sect's spiritual treasure?!"
"Did I hear you correctly? How is this possible!"
"That's right, he was talking about the Great Xumi Qiankun Pagoda! He actually used it as an introductory test. Wen Shipai was so generous!"
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the cultivators who were bored because of queuing all started a heated discussion. However, there were also those who didn't know what was going on, such as the young man behind the middle-aged scribe, who said loudly to himself: " What is the Great Xumi Qiankun Pagoda?”
There were a lot of contemptuous looks from all around, as if seeing a country bumpkin, but there were also warm-hearted people who saw that he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, so they explained to him: "Why are you so stupid? That is a spiritual treasure! It is said that the Great Xumi Qiankun Pagoda It is divided into nine layers, each layer is different, and it has its own heaven and earth, which can form a world of its own, which is much more advanced than those like the star and moon illusion. "
"What's the matter? Do you look down on the Purple Sun Secret Realm of my Shaoyang Sect?" A young man in red with two swords on his back was extremely dissatisfied when he heard this and turned around and yelled angrily.
"No... no, how can I say this... how dare I!" The man from before was stunned when he saw the sect logo on the young man's clothes. He whispered a few words and then hid in the crowd.
"Huh!" The young man in red snorted coldly, and glanced around with sharp eyes. The crowd of melon eaters around him who were watching the excitement with great interest all turned away their eyes or lowered their heads, and then he said one word after another: "Osu Mi Qiankun Tower? What a shabby thing! My Shaoyang Sect’s Ziyang Secret Realm has many changes, and it will be different every time I enter it. How can it be compared to a nine-story broken tower?”
After the boy in red finished speaking, he found that everyone around him was doing his own business. Some were talking in low voices with their friends, and some were looking straight ahead. No one paid attention to him at all. He couldn't help but blushed with anger. Another man wearing a dress next to him The man in red tugged on his sleeves: "Junior brother, it's time for us to enter the city."
After the two Shaoyang disciples entered the city, a burst of laughter erupted from the people who had been waiting in line. A bald man with a wretched description said "Pah": "Ziyang Secret Realm? What kind of junk! The Ziyang Secret Realm is full of virtual reality. Compared with the Great Sumeru Qiankun Pagoda, which has a real world, it is worthless! Humph, the bully boy from the Shaoyang Sect, even though his hair is not even tall, he pretends to be a grandpa in front of me! At that time, you didn’t know where you were hiding, waiting to be reincarnated.”
These words were unbearable, but someone echoed: "That's right! The Shaoyang Sect has become more arrogant and domineering in recent years, relying on itself as the largest sect in the world of cultivating immortals. If you ask me, look at the other three sects, the Yinxian Sect is a Taoist Authentic, the Wenshi sect is unprecedented, and Ziwei Sword Pavilion is a group of idiots who know how to practice swordsmanship, and they are all very low-key. "
"Did you hear about it? Some time ago, the Shaoyang Sect also supported a small sect - what is it called? They robbed the spirit stone mine discovered by another small sect first."
"It's called Huangshan Sect." The young man in Tsing Yi, who had been standing silently behind the middle-aged scribe, suddenly interrupted: "The other sect is called Qingyu Sect."
This young man in green is none other than Liu Qinghuan. That day, he finally escaped the pursuit of the Dragon Scale Fish and only arrived in Haoyuan City today.
