Chapter 720: A City
Seeing that Zhu Bufan and Emperor Yan were looking at him, Huo Ling didn't know what to say for a while, just shook his head and said, "No, I don't know what kind of place this is, but I once seemed to have heard my grandfather inadvertently say that there is an extremely dangerous place under the Divine Sword Peak, and grandpa and some elder-level characters are also called 'there'." ”
"Looks like it should be. With a sigh, Emperor Yan said: "Actually, the emperor is also very suspicious, we have never left the range of the Divine Sword Peak, but the emperor's spiritual sense has been blocked, so we have not been able to draw conclusions." ”
For a while, the three of them fell into silence, and after a long time, it was Zhu Bufan who said first: "Anyway, since you have already come, let's take a look around first." ”
Zhu Bufan's proposal was also a solution, and Emperor Yan still returned to the Emperor of Yama to rest, while Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling swam around in this huge stone passage.
The area here is beyond imagination, and it is made of green bricks of the same size, only to see that on these green bricks, there are a large number of demons and ghosts, and with the dim light, it looks very weird.
After going around the stone passage a few times, Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling finally found a way to leave here, to be precise, it was not a real road, but a cloud of aura that spewed out like a fountain.
"Leyline aura. Seeing this steam-like substantial aura gushing out, Huo Ling cried out in surprise.
It turns out that this leyline aura is also a kind of spiritual spring, and there are some spiritual currents flowing like rivers in the underground abyss, and there may be such a small blowout in some places.
The biggest effect of this kind of leyline aura is actually not like a spiritual spring, so that the surrounding environment is filled with a thick aura, in fact, the amount of aura spewed out by the leyline aura is quite limited, but the leyline aura has a very special effect.
"I finally know why that demon has the Eight Directions Escape Talisman, it turns out that this is the case. The moment he saw the leyline aura, Zhu Bufan finally understood why that demon had an eight-way escape talisman, because as long as he had the eight-way escape talisman and used it in the leyline aura, he could escape along the spiritual flow, so when Zhu Bufan saw the leyline aura, he was immediately glad that he didn't destroy the eight-way escape talisman.
"Let's go. Stretching out his hand, Zhu Bufan was still a little worried that Huo Ling would be awkward, but unexpectedly, Huo Ling calmly and indifferently held Zhu Bufan's outstretched hand, which made Zhu Bufan secretly relieved in his heart, and at the same time, he also understood that in fact, Huo Ling was not so unreasonable.
The two held hands and stood on the earth's leyline aura, Zhu Bufan immediately turned out the Bafang Escape Talisman, and with a burst of vitality input, the Bafang Escape Talisman burst out with a strong crystal brilliance.
The crystal green light quickly enveloped the bodies of the two of them, and a burst of bright light flashed, and the two disappeared in place, and when the two regained consciousness again, they already found themselves in a suburban place.
Looking at the surrounding environment, Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling were both at a loss, only to see that there were a lot of plants around, but in reality, what are these plants called, Zhu Bufan really can't name them.
When I looked up, I didn't see the sun or anything, between the sky, there was a gray fog blocking the sight of the two, and if you looked into the distance, you could see that at the end of the horizon, there was a phantom of a city.
Similarly, Huo Ling also clearly saw the black shadow of the city in the distance, and both of them showed puzzled eyes, they had never heard of the existence of a city in the territory of the Divine Moon Spirit, in fact, from the surrounding environment, this place no longer belonged to the Divine Moon Spiritual Realm, but it was difficult to know where it was.
"Let's go into town and ask somebody what the hell this is. Neither of them had any clue, Huo Ling proposed to go into the city to have a look, and when he heard Huo Ling's proposal, Zhu Bufan also nodded, and as soon as the two figures moved, they rushed towards the direction of the black shadow in the city.
The two of them who spread out their speed only left a string of afterimages in the void, whether it was Zhu Bufan's thunder step with all his strength, or Huo Ling's treading waves, the speed was extremely exaggerated, and it didn't take long for the two of them to be able to clearly see the outline of the city.
As the city got bigger and bigger, Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling could hardly suppress the surprise in their hearts, because the city in front of them was really strange enough.
I saw that the huge city wall was four to five zhang high, and the stone used to build the city was a kind of inky black stone, and the whole city seemed to absorb all the light into it.
"That's not right. After seeing the whole picture of the city, Huo Ling said softly: "When I was a child, my grandfather and I went down to the Tianfeng Empire once, and the city there was different from this city in terms of architectural style and materials, could it be that we even left the borders of the Tianfeng Empire?"
"Oh, have you ever seen the city under the mountain?" Huo Ling's words attracted all of Zhu Bufan's attention, after all, if this was the case, then things were really a bit weird, leaving the Shenyue Spirit Realm and leaving the Tianfeng Empire were two different things, after all, the Shenyue Spirit Realm was only a part of the territory of the Tianfeng Empire!
"Yes, although it was only to the White Cloud City of the Heavenly Wind Empire, the cities of the Heavenly Wind Empire were different from this. After nodding categorically, Huo Ling said.
Just as the two were talking, they had approached the city gate, and they saw that at the city gate, four soldiers in pitch-black armor and holding black jade Changge were standing guard outside the city gate, and at the city gate, many people were entering and leaving the city, looking busy.
Glancing at each other, the footsteps of the two slowed down at the same time, and seeing the busy appearance of the city gate, Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling also lined up in the crowd waiting to enter the city.
"Stop! Enter the city token!" When it was Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling's turn, the soldiers guarding the door suddenly blocked Zhu Bufan and Huo Ling's way, and after the soldiers led by them glanced up and down a few times, they said, "You two are very faceless, where did you come from?"
"We are disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Hearing the cold and emotionless question of the black-armored soldier, Huo Ling frowned slightly and said.
"Heavenly Sword Sect?" Hearing Huo Ling's words, the black-armored soldier showed a mocking smile, but quickly relented, and then said: "No matter what sect you come from, if you want to enter Heiyan City, you must have a pass token for Heiyan City. ”
"So how can I get the token?" Seeing that although the black-armored soldier spoke in an arrogant tone, he only stopped the two of them and didn't do anything, Zhu Bufan frowned, and asked patiently, after all, he was not familiar with life, and before he knew what place this was, it was better to bear with it.
"Jade!" Without the slightest hesitation, the leading soldier in black armor said: "As long as you hand in the jade, you can get the token, of course, ordinary jade cannot, as long as there is a class of jade." After finishing speaking, the leading soldier in black armor also glanced at Zhu Bufan with contemptuous eyes, which obviously meant that seeing that you are young, it is impossible to come up with anything good.
For the eyes of the black-armored leading soldiers, Zhu Bufan was secretly angry in his heart, since he entered the Heavenly Sword Sect, Zhu Bufan has endured this kind of contemptuous gaze for ten years, whenever he sees others looking at him with this kind of gaze, Zhu Bufan will be angry, if it weren't for the fact that the situation is unknown now, Zhu Bufan would have already made this guy look good.
"That's fine. A fist-sized piece of purple essence jade was taken out by Zhu Bufan, and when he saw the purple essence jade shining with purple brilliance in Zhu Bufan's hand, the eyes of the leading soldier in black armor burst into a greedy gaze that could not be concealed, not only him, but also the other three soldiers guarding the city also looked greedy.
"Let me check the authenticity first. As soon as the greedy eyes were revealed, the black-armored leading soldier reached out to take the purple essence jade in Zhu Bufan's hand, and Zhu Bufan's hand quickly held the hand of the black-armored leading soldier.
"You!" Feeling that his hand seemed to be pinched by iron tongs, the leading soldier in black armor showed an angry look at Zhu Bufan, but soon, his face changed from red to purple sauce with anger, and then from purple sauce to white, because he felt that the power of Zhu Bufan's big hand was far beyond the range he could bear, and the sharp pain continued to enter the mind of the leading soldier in black armor, and he broke out in cold sweat.
Seeing that his leader's face was wrong, the other three black-armored soldiers finally reacted, and set up the black jade Changge in their hands, and the three soldiers wanted to rush towards Zhu Bufan.
"Get out!" A wave of fire erupted in a semicircle with Zhu Bufan as the center, and the high-temperature air wave contained in the dark green poisonous fire instantly shook all the soldiers who planned to close to the ground to the ground, seeing that Zhu Bufan actually sacrificed the poisonous fire, the pupils of the black-armored leading soldiers immediately shrank to the size of a needle, but because of the pain, they could only snort and couldn't speak, those soldiers were even more unbearable, they who had not yet entered the realm of quenching the body, they couldn't even be called cultivators, if it weren't for Zhu Bufan's mercy, they would have already turned into powder.
"Whether the jade is true or false, you can roughly judge its color, brilliance, and aura from a distance. After shaking the three black-armored soldiers to the ground, Zhu Bufan suddenly said to the black-armored leading soldier as if he had started gossiping: "Of course, there is a lot of knowledge in this, do you want me to continue to teach you to identify jade 'hand in hand'? ”
Hearing this, Huo Ling and the people around him who were watching the excitement had already understood, this Zhu Bufan, where was the friendly gossip with others? It was clear that he was teasing this guy, and looking at this guy's pale face that was almost like a dead man, he could imagine what kind of situation this guy was in.
"Don't dare~~~No~~ Dare to ask Mr. to teach, just ~~ Mr.'s cultivation ~~ can be exempted from the cost of entering the city~~~" Forcibly enduring the sharp pain in his heart, the black-armored leading soldier said in a trembling voice, he didn't dare to shout, because he knew that if he really did this, the next moment, Zhu Bufan would only make him more painful, and even if he was in pain, he couldn't make a sound.
"Oh, what do you mean, I don't need to give you jade?" Squinting slightly, Zhu Bufan confirmed again, and after the leading soldier in black armor nodded desperately and took out two pass tokens, Zhu Bufan slowly let go of his hand and said, "This captain is loyal and admirable, let's go." After speaking, Zhu Bufan took the lead in walking into the city gate.
