Chapter 59: Chiaki
Lin Han was apprehensive when he came, but he didn't have time to take a closer look, and when he went out, he took a look, and the City Lord's Mansion was really magnificent, and it could almost be called a spirit stone paving. The planting is all spiritual wood with water and wood attributes that can gather aura, and the walls and pavilions are all expensive Qingxin stones, and there are mysterious seals carved everywhere, presumably guarded by a formation. Even the flower beds are planted with spiritual Huixin grass and jade vermilion flowers, any of the entourage guards are all in the late stage of condensation, and occasionally there are a few golden pills, seeing the city lord Lu and the Elder of the Tibetan Sword coming over, they all saluted and said hello, Lu Yin lived in such an environment all day long, no wonder he couldn't figure out how many catties and taels he had, and he was overbearing everywhere.
Speaking of Lu Yin, I don't know if it was because he saw the guards in his house that gave him confidence, or if Ji Biao never beat him and gave him confidence, he followed his father and Elder Zangjian for a while, although he was still afraid of Ji Biao, but he dared to take the initiative to talk to Lin Han, and mysteriously came over and asked, "Hey, what kind of vision did you appear when you condensed your veins?"
Lin Han said lightly: "It's just a small seedling." ”
"A little seedling?" Lu Yin was obviously spoiled since he was a child, not to mention looking at people's faces, he couldn't even speak well, and said in disgust: "What's the use of this?
"The talent of the Shuimu attribute vision is mainly in the elixir and defense ......" Lin Han explained, while unhurriedly dragging Ji Biao who wanted to beat Lu Yin, but the young master of the city lord who had palpitations still found that Ji Biao's eyes were very unkind when he looked at him, and hurriedly took a few steps to keep up with the steps of the Hidden Sword Elder and his own father, and then turned back and warned Ji Biao inwardly: "Let me tell you, don't you want to do it here, our family has a lot of ...... Jindan"
Thinking of the Jin Dan who was crippled by Ji Biao, he probably realized that such a threat was not very useful, and hurriedly added: "There are also a lot of Yuan Babies." ”
“...... This time, it was mainly the alien race on the other side of the South Marsh who sent some strange treasures from the demon beasts...... Yin'er, what's wrong?"
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. ”
This is the first time Lin Han and Ji Wei have seen the legendary Qianqiu Pavilion, it is much more gorgeous than the City Lord's Mansion, a pavilion as high as the sky, but the shape is a bit like a pagoda, and the layers of cornices are hung with delicate silver wind chimes, as long as there is a breeze blowing, it will emit a fine and pleasant bell, Lin Han has already heard many rumors about the Qianqiu Pavilion in Yixian City in Huoling, one of which is to say that these wind chimes are thousands, it is said that there are thousands of these wind chimes, it is the Qianqiu Pavilion that invited the formation master Tianjizi to lay out the Qianyin Wind Killing Array, as long as there is a Yuan Infant Master sitting in the pavilion, start the formation, even if you are a master of the Transformation Period, don't think about getting anything good in Qianqiu Pavilion.
Lin Han was very interested in the Qianqiu Pavilion, a mysterious force that spread throughout the entire Nanzhao Kingdom, in the cultivation realm where strength was respected, huge wealth often meant that it was necessary to have the same earth-shattering strength to protect it, otherwise it would only become a life-urging talisman. Qianqiu Pavilion sits on the wealth of the rich country, and the sub-pavilions are all over the capital of all counties in the Nanzhao Kingdom, almost monopolizing the trading of precious pills, materials, and magic weapons flying swords, and the spirit stones handled every day are like flowing water. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as you capture any branch of the Qianqiu Pavilion, the spirit stones and elixir magic weapons in it are definitely no less than any ancient sect with a master of the Transformation God Period.
However, such a rich and rival force was not attached to any huge sect, nor was there any cultivation force to support it. Even the oldest former Qianqiu Pavilion in Yixian County, the most ancient pavilion, claims to the outside world that there is only one peak master of the Yuan Infant Stage sitting in the pavilion. You must know that the Heroes Conference at the end of the Qianqiu Pavilion is the most lively and dangerous time of the year, the entire Yixian County and even the Nanzhao Kingdom are all moved, and the most precious magic weapon materials of the year are auctioned and sold at this time, and any one of them can make countless masters crazy. Even if he hadn't heard the news that Lu Yin's guy had inadvertently leaked that a master of the Transformation Stage had come to Yixian City to preside over this Hero Conference, Lin Han would not believe that there was only one Yuan Infant Stage master in charge of this Hero Conference.
But then again, the cultivation realm is not the only criterion for dividing strength, especially between sword cultivation, the level of comprehension of the sword path is enough to make the strength very different. Even in the same realm, the difference between the superior and inferior sword skills, or the different characteristics of the flying sword, is enough to cause a huge gap in strength
Compared with Lin Han's reasonable, well-calculated and meticulous analysis method, Ji Wei's way of judging was much simpler and rude, as soon as he walked to the door of Qianqiu Pavilion, he refused to continue to walk inside.
"There's an ambush here," he said bluntly, "there's a great man I can't beat." ”
Originally, when they heard him say that there was an ambush, the expressions of the City Lord Lu and the Hidden Sword Elder were all awe-inspiring, but after understanding the basis for his judgment that there was an ambush, both of them laughed.
"You can't beat it, can't you still run?" Elder Hidden Sword teased him with his previous words.
Ji Wei replied to him seriously: "I can't beat this, and I can't run away." ”
Under the repeated assurances of the Hidden Sword Elder and the City Lord Lu - in fact, the main reason was that Lin Han entered, and Ji Wei stepped into the Qianqiu Pavilion very vigilantly.
After entering the Qianqiu Pavilion, Ji Wei probably kept sticking to Lu Yin for safety reasons, so that in case of an accident, he could hold Lu Yin hostage as a threat as soon as possible to protect Lin Han. Poor Lu Yin was afraid that he was scared to death, as soon as he got closer, Lu Yin hurriedly leaned towards his father, and bumped into the city lord Lu several times, waiting for the city lord Lu to turn around and ask, "Yin'er, what's wrong." He was embarrassed to admit that he was afraid of Ji Biao, so he could only bite the bullet and say that it was okay.
In such a delicate situation, the group walked through the corridor of the Thousand Autumn Pavilion and came to the lobby where the masters of the Hero Conference were entertained.
The more powerful the cultivators, the more they don't like to swagger, so although the hall is magnificently arranged, there are no people, only a few Taoists who have just arrived are leading the way to their respective lounges under the guidance of the servants.
"Lord Lu, there are still two quarters of an hour before the start of the Heroes Conference, and there are still a few seniors who have not arrived, the Yehua Zhenren of Qionghua Palace, the Mitian Dao Elder of Fengtianguan, and the Yunzhi Fairy of Wanhua Island have all arrived, and a total of seventy-two private rooms have been prepared for this Hero Conference, and now there are still twenty masters left who have not yet arrived, and the list is here. As soon as he entered the lobby, a middle-aged man who looked like a principal greeted him, and while handing Lord Lu Cheng a list of vermilion and lacquered gold, he reported the situation of the conference to him.
The City Lord Lu did not shy away from the Hidden Sword Elder and the others, and also introduced the two sides: "Brother Tibetan Sword, this is the deputy pavilion master of the Qianqiu Pavilion Branch in Yixian City, Mr. Zhu, Mr. Zhu, this is the Tibetan Sword Brother I often mention to you, these are his two senior disciples. ”
Several elders were greeting, and Lin Han looked at Mr. Zhu, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled.
This Mr. Zhu's steps were vain, and there was no aura fluctuation around him, just like a mortal who had no cultivation at all. But how can a mortal become the deputy pavilion master of the Qianqiu Pavilion?
This question was finally answered after Lin Han and his party parted ways with the City Lord of Lu.
"Aren't you wondering why the high-ranking people of the Thousand Autumn Pavilion are all mortals with a fairly shallow cultivation?"
At that time, the City Lord Lu had already gone with Mr. Zhu to deal with the other affairs of the Qianqiu Pavilion, and only one servant led the Elder Hidden Sword and Lin Han Ji to the private room arranged by the City Lord Lu to participate in the auction. The hallway was empty.
"Are these people just stand-ins?" Lin Han is worthy of being an author, and his imagination is very rich, in fact, there is indeed such a bridge in the original book. The struggle in the cultivation realm was cruel and full of dangers, and there were many masters who did not die in the Heavenly Tribulation, but died in sect struggles and assassinations. Sometimes, a magic weapon against the heavens such as the Xiaoyao Sutra can cause a bloody storm in the cultivation realm, attracting countless Yuan Infant Transformation Gods to fight for their lives, and they have fallen one after another.
Elder Hidden Sword originally wanted to teach Lin Han a lesson, but he didn't expect this disciple to look white and pure and weak, and his thoughts were much darker than his own, so he had to cough awkwardly and said, "That's not it." The managers of the various sub-pavilions of the Qianqiu Pavilion are all cultivated by the General Pavilion, most of them are mortals, and most of them have no cultivation talent, so they can save their cultivation time and concentrate on their business. ”
However, in addition to the benefits that Elder Hidden Sword had said, Lin Han also thought of a deeper layer.
Qianqiu Pavilion is all over the Nanzhao Kingdom, and now it has the tendency to spread to the entire Vermilion Bird Continent, and the treasures that the branch cabinet managers can access are naturally countless, even if it is an immortal in the Transformation Period, he can't be unmoved, but a mortal who has no cultivation talent can do it. The same elixir, if it is eaten by a person with outstanding talent like Ji Ao, it will naturally be reborn, but if it is swallowed by a mortal who has no cultivation talent, it will only make him explode and die. No matter how good the elixir is, no matter how good the flying sword is, it is like dung in their eyes. Letting mortals manage the tempting Qianqiu Pavilion is like the ancient emperor using eunuchs to manage the three thousand harems, which is a very cruel and practical method.
From this point of view, the chief cabinet master behind this Qianqiu Pavilion must be a genius who is extremely proficient in the art of the emperor.
Lin Han thought so in his heart, but asked silently on the surface: "But mortals don't live for more than a hundred years, if the top level of the Qianqiu Pavilion is all mortals, wouldn't it have to change frequently?"
"This prince is joking, how can we not even refine a few Shou Yuan Pills in our Qianqiu Pavilion?" This time, the servant who had been leading the way replied with a smile: "Don't talk about the deputy pavilion master, even the small ones can receive a few Shou Yuan Pills every year." ”
In the middle of the conversation, the group had already reached the door of the private room, and the servant respectfully pushed the door.
