Chapter 33: The City Lord Invites
In addition, there are many powerful individuals in the Chaos Ancient Realm that are almost comparable to the legendary gods, such as extremely powerful beings among some divine beasts, and terrifying creatures that have survived since ancient times.
In the face of so many powerful forces and existences, although the human race has had many great supernatural powers since ancient times, and even walked out of the gods, it is only one of the overlords of the Chaos Ancient Realm.
It is said that outside the ancient realm of chaos, there is a boundless and vast sea of chaos, in which there are powerful beasts that surpass the gods.
There are only a few sentences about the Sea of Chaos in these books, and there is no record of how big the entire Sea of Chaos is, so it can only be described as boundless and endless.
When he saw this, Xia Mu had a trace of doubt in his heart, since there are chaos and fierce beasts comparable to gods in the Sea of Chaos, how to ensure that these fierce beasts do not break into the Chaos Ancient Realm, you must know that once a chaos-level fierce beast comparable to a god enters the Chaos Ancient Realm, the destructive power caused by it is absolutely extremely terrifying, and some extremely powerful existences in the divine beasts also have combat power comparable to that of gods, so how can it be distinguished from chaos and fierce beasts?
These doubts in Xia Mu's heart were not mentioned in the classics, so he had to put them aside for the time being.
Through some descriptions in the classics, Xia Mu also found that in terms of overall strength, the human race was enough to rank in the top ten in the Chaos Ancient Realm.
However, the number of beings at the top of the Terran race is not as large as that of many other alien beings.
In this way, a delicate balance has been formed, although the number of top-level existences of the Terrans is far less than that of other alien creatures, it is better than the large population base, and there are more ants and can bite and kill elephants, not to mention that the Terrans are a hundred times stronger than ants, if they continue to develop, the number of top-level existences of the Terrans in the future may not be greatly improved.
When Xia Mu saw this, he sighed lightly, Mu Xiu Yufeng is not a good thing, even he can see the future potential of the human race, how can other alien powers not see it, it is bound to be impossible for the human race to become bigger, but these things are not Xia Mu's turn to worry about. In addition, at present, this city is about to experience a large beast tide, and it is so close to the Southern Wilderness, there is a great chance of overlord-level fierce beasts appearing.
It must be known that the weakest overlord-level fierce beasts all have the strength of the Immortal Realm, if there are ten heads and eight heads, this Jingyuan City may not be able to withstand it.
He silently drank a glass of wine from the table, his eyes narrowing and thinking to himself.
He is now in Jingyuan City, naturally it is impossible to sit idly by and ignore this beast tide, once Jingyuan City is attacked by fierce beasts, with his cultivation beyond the realm of the womb palace, he will definitely not be able to escape his life under those elite-level fierce beasts, not to mention that there is a very high probability that there will be stronger overlord-level fierce beasts.
As for leaving before the beast tide occurred, Xia Mu had never even considered this idea, because this kind of behavior was tantamount to looking for death.
The outbreak of the beast tide is in these three or two days, once the beast tide erupts, there are fierce beasts all over the radius of thousands of miles, and the protection of Jingyuan City has been lost, with Xia Mu's cultivation, I am afraid that he will not be able to make much waves in the beast tide, so even if it is very dangerous to stay in the city, Xia Mu has to choose to stay.
If there is really an overlord-level fierce beast, it is also something that Tang Yu, the city lord of Jingyuan City, should worry about, his strength is low, and it is okay to deal with sub-elite-level fierce beasts, and if he goes up, he will not be able to do it.
Of course, if the old man Han Feng could arrive in time, the situation would be different, but from the situation that day, it was obvious that the old man had something important to do and couldn't get away, otherwise he wouldn't let Xia Mu return to the Qiankun Holy Courtyard alone.
Thinking of this, Xia Mu couldn't help but worry about the old man's situation, but his ability was limited, even if he guessed that the old man was very likely to encounter danger, he couldn't do anything about it.
Xia Mu sat on the chair, and the expression on his face was cloudy and uncertain for a long time.
"It's better to get through this beast tide first and then think of another way!" his eyes flickered, and he muttered to himself, his expression calm again.
In the few days that he came to Jingyuan City, Xia Mu had already thought carefully about breaking his shackles, only by finding the Yin and Yang Life and Death Divine Spring in the Ten Thousand Realms Tower, and sucking up the death qi of the Three Palaces with the water of the Yang Spring, could he continue his journey forward and continue to cultivate along the path of cultivation, otherwise he could only stop and open his mind for life, and in this world full of ten thousand races, it was not enough to protect himself, let alone save others.
According to what the old man said, the Yin and Yang Divine Spring of Life and Death can not only wash away one's own dead energy, but also transform the physical body, laying a solid foundation for condensing the immortal body, so that even if you have not stepped into the immortal realm, you can condense the immortal body in advance.
At that time, not to mention invincible at the same level, it is also a rare opponent.
In a word, if Xia Mu wants to continue his cultivation, he must eliminate the endless death qi in his body before he can continue his journey and impact the realm of the fetal palace.
According to the old man's estimate, there is still about a year before the Ten Thousand Realms Pagoda opens again, and before that, the twelve Great Caves of Heaven and Earth in Dongzhou will send the most outstanding disciples under the sect to compete for the ten places, hold a ring battle, and choose the owner of the ten places.
And now the only thing Xia Mu has to think about is how to ensure that he can get one of the places, although his strength is enough to look down on anyone below the realm of the Fetal Palace, but the lion fights the rabbit and still does his best, Xia Mu naturally does not want to fail because of carelessness.
His cultivation realm has almost reached the extreme of the realm of enlightenment, and if he wants to make a further breakthrough in the physical body without any opportunity, in Xia Mu's current situation, the possibility is not very large, and in terms of spiritual skills, Xia Mu has only practiced the opening technique and the Heaven Breaking Finger, plus now that the beast tide is coming, he can take this opportunity to sharpen his spiritual skills.
With a decision in his heart, Xia Mu did not continue to stay in this restaurant for a while, but after putting a few heavy books into his bag, he stopped an empty car on the street pulled by two fierce beasts that looked like cows and not cows, horses and not horses.
He didn't care whether the other party was a mortal or a monk, he casually threw a low-grade spirit stone over, and after spitting out the words "City Lord's Mansion", he entered the carriage in a flash, and immediately closed his eyes and recuperated.
This kind of beast cart pulled by a fierce beast with a gentle temperament is a major scenery in Jingyuan City, and the streets and alleys can be seen everywhere, after all, with the scale of the city, if there is no beast cart to travel, low-level monks and warriors and mortals may not be able to reach their destination if they want to walk from one district to another in the city, I am afraid that they may not be able to reach their destination after walking for half a day.
The mortal coachman was stunned at first after seeing that Xia Mu had left a low-grade spirit stone, but then there was a joyous thank-you succession, and then he drove the beast cart all the way to the east of the city.
Xia Mu closed his eyes in the carriage for more than half an hour before he heard the coachman's words:
"This immortal master, the City Lord's Mansion has arrived!"
Xia Mu slowly opened his eyes, nodded without saying a word and stepped out of the beast cart.
I saw a large attic building in front of me, and in front of the tall attic at the front, there was a huge plaque with the words "City Lord's Mansion" written in gold-pink ancient script.
In front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, there were two Jing Yuanwei guarding each other, both tall and mighty, and their momentum was extraordinary, after seeing Xia Mu get down from the beast cart, one of Jing Yuanwei immediately walked over and said:
"Is it little brother Xia Mu?"
"It's me. The face on Xia Mu's face had recovered as before, and he replied quietly.
"Hehe, the city lord has already instructed his subordinates to clean up the Red Mansion Pavilion, little brother, please come with me. After Jing Yuanwei confirmed Xia Mu's identity, he immediately led him through the gate and went straight to the attic buildings behind.
"The Red Mansion Pavilion is the attic of our City Lord's Mansion specially used to entertain important guests, and it is the best place in the West Chamber......" Najing Yuanwei introduced enthusiastically while leading the way in front.
"Hey, Brother Xia, you're finally back, great, the city lord has already ordered that as soon as I see you, I will take you to see him immediately, come with me." Before he walked to the West Chamber, a Jing Yuanwei walked in front of him, it was Jing Yuanwei who had led Xia Mu into Jingyuan City before, and when he saw Xia Mu appear here, he immediately strode over with joy.
"It turned out to be Big Brother Ma, I don't know what the city lord is looking for me?" Xia Mu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he asked calmly.
"I don't know about this, but I probably heard that you have become the master of "Immortality", and I want to meet you. The middle-aged man surnamed Ma shook his head and smiled.
"During this time, I have to temporarily live in the City Lord's Mansion, so it is reasonable to say thank you, then it will be troublesome for Brother Ma to lead the way in front. Xia Mu said with a smile.
"Hehe, Brother Xia is too polite. The middle-aged man surnamed Ma waved his hand, sent Jing Yuanwei, who had led the way before, away, and walked towards the east chamber with Xia Mu.
On the way, I met a lot of familiar Jing Yuanwei and domestic servants, naturally greeted them one by one, the two turned east and west, and after passing through several corridors in a row, they finally came to a small courtyard alone in the east wing.
This is a courtyard house, located there alone, the neighborhood is relatively quiet and elegant, and there is an old servant at the door who is sweeping the fallen leaves, as if he did not notice the arrival of the two.
"Uncle Qiu, this is the city lord's guest. The middle-aged man surnamed Ma bowed slightly and said.
The old servant leaned over and looked over with a broom, his eyes were cold, which made people feel cold all over his body.
Xia Mu's pupils shrank slightly, this old servant obviously couldn't be a mortal, otherwise under the sweep of his gaze, his momentum would not be so amazing, giving him the feeling that he seemed to be even more powerful than that Tang Yu.
"Hello Uncle Qiu!" Xia Mu stepped forward and hugged his fist, and said respectfully with the middle-aged man surnamed Ma.
"To be able to have such a terrifying physical power in the realm of enlightenment, it is really terrifying in the afterlife, terrible in the afterlife!" The old servant slowly retracted his gaze and said slowly: "Go in, my old man won't lead the way for you." ”
The old man said, continuing to sweep up the fallen leaves on the ground, and ignored the two of them again.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man surnamed Ma bowed again, didn't say anything, and led Xia Mu into the courtyard.
