Chapter Ninety-Eight: Apocalypse City
Zhongzhou is located in the northwest of the East Continent, which is the center of the Kyushu world, connecting Lanzhou in the east, Wanzhou in the south, Chuyan Sea in the west, and Hanzhou in the north separated by the Tiantuo Strait. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The topography of Zhongzhou is mixed in a belt, with many mountains and plains, high in the east and low in the west. The two uplift belts, namely Mingluo Mountain and Anlan Mountain, which extend from Qingliang Mountain and Yebei Plateau in Lanzhou and the Leiyan Mountain Range across the Eastern Continent, divide Zhongzhou from northeast to southwest, with the uplift zone mainly mountainous terrain and the subsidence zone forming basins and plains. To the north of Zhongzhou is the vast Yanhe Plain, to the south of the Yanhe Plain is the Central Highlands and the Imperial Capital Basin, and to the west is the north-south trending Hercynian Hills and Hercynian Plain.
The Apocalypse City of the Imperial Capital is actually located in the southwest of the Imperial Capital Basin, and since the previous dynasties together the Eastern Continent, the Western Continent, and the Northern Continent, the three major landmasses, were divided into Kyushu, and the Apocalypse City was already a prosperous city. For 10,000 years, most people believed that the Kyushu Continent was at the center of the earth, and the Imperial Capital of the Apocalypse City was the center of the Kyushu Continent, although this statement was not accurate, but this obviously did not prevent most human dynasties from setting the capital at the Apocalypse.
In fact, the Imperial Capital Basin is a plain, just because the height around it is much higher than the Imperial Capital Plain, so it seems that the Imperial Capital Plain is shorter, Apocalypse City is not only the most magnificent city, but also the most prosperous trade zone, and it is also the political and commercial center of the entire Kyushu continent, and the floating population who come here every day to trade and trade is calculated in millions.
At the same time, Apocalypse City is known as one of the best tourist areas in the world due to its unique geographical advantages, otherworldly beauty, adventurous mystery, suitable climate for healing, colorful festivals, and a variety of exciting activities.
After flying at full speed for nearly three days, Yun Xuan and Li Wan'er came to the intersection of the Gloom Mountains and the Beibi Mountains in the middle of the night, which is the location of the Yinyang Pass, which is known as the "Second Pass of the Eastern Continent", and is also the meeting place where Yun Xuan and the old Huanglong Dao have agreed in advance.
Yinyang Pass is the only way for Wanyue and the two states to enter and exit Zhongzhou, the north of here is the imperial capital basin, the south is the Chutang Plain, and the north and south 100,000 Tuo Plain only have a dangerous pass to defend. The city wall of Yinyang Pass is east-west, the east and west sides are wide, and the north and south sides are long, which is a great wall. The height of the city wall is twelve zhang, the width is more than three zhang, the inside and outside are double-layered, the urn city between the two layers of the city wall is equipped with the most sophisticated large-scale offensive spirit weapon on the Kyushu continent, because the terrain where the Yinyang Pass is located is relatively higher than the surroundings, so the range of the large crossbow has far exceeded the limit that the ordinary Yuanying monk can reach, and the ancient emperor had laid a very broad forbidden space barrier here, so the Yinyang Pass located in danger can be described as "a husband is a pass, ten thousand people are not open", worthy of the title of "the key to the imperial capital".
The number of monks who came to the Imperial Capital Apocalypse City to participate in the trial this time far exceeded the number of previous trials in the secret territory of Beibi Mountain, Zhuji, Yudan, and even the monks of the Yuan Infant Stage were also in the team, Yun Xuan saw from a distance the carriage at the front of the line, where the banner marked with nine clouds was located.
The nine clouds represent the supremacy of the Yuntian Sect, don't think about it, it is definitely the vehicle where the head of the Yellow Dragon is located, lined up behind the carriage, and the middle of the team is the disciples of the Yuan Infant Stage and the Jie Dan Period, these people have controlled their own magic weapons to fly at low altitudes, the number is large, there are more than three hundred, and at the end of the line are more than a thousand disciples of the Foundation Building Period, most of them are flying with imperial swords, and only a few monks have alternative flying magic weapons.
The arrival of Yun Xuan and Li Wan'er made Huang Long Lao Dao, who was in the first carriage, come out to greet him personally, and temporarily added a carriage for the two to ride, this move immediately attracted the attention of the entire team, and even some monks were already secretly guessing the identity of the comer, but whether it was Yun Xuan or Li Wan'er, compared to most of the monks in Yuntian Sect before, it seemed a little low-key, plus after Yun Xuan formed the Zi Dan, he was half a head taller, and even his appearance became slightly resolute, as for Li Wan'er, he used to wear a delicate human skin mask all the time in Yuntian Sect, so there was only Huang Long Lao Dao in the sceneand be able to recognize both of them.
Yuntian Sect's mighty convoy casually passed through the magnificent city gate of Yinyang Pass, because the imperial capital trial will be opened in the near future, the daily flow of people this month is too large, and the inspection has become relatively lax, when the guards of Yuntian Pass saw that the front of the carriage team was printed with the unique mark of Yuntian Sect, they felt that even the inspection was saved, and they also watched the departure of the entire convoy with the standard military salute of the mortal world, after all, Yuntianzong is the only immortal gate on the Kyushu continent that focuses on refining pills, monks can not get along with monks, but there is not necessarily a pill that cannot get by, this truth is well known to most people。
After passing through the city gate of the Yang Pass, the sun gate, the main gate of the Apocalypse City, is the highest and majestic one of the twelve city gates, there is an arrow tower as high as ten zhang and a semi-circular urn city, this is the only city gate of the Apocalypse with an urn city. There is a plaque on the city gate, the existing "Sun Gate" three big characters are the handwriting of the ancient emperor of the previous dynasty, the font is strong and vigorous, the pen force is three points into the wood, it is said that the ancient emperor of the former dynasty has peerless magical powers, and these three words are rare surviving ink treasures, the agility in the pen and ink faintly contains a certain artistic conception, so that sitting at the window next to the carriage looking at the three big characters of Yunxuan, feel an extremely strong killing atmosphere, for this amazed.
There are a total of twelve gates in this Apocalypse City, starting from due north, and the order is Gu Xuan, Dark Moon, Split Chapter, Filling, Huanhua, Yu Fei, Sun, Bright Moon, Miro, Yinchi, Suizheng, and Ganbai. These twelve gates do not simply correspond to the star wheel diagram, but also have their own corresponding principles in urban design.
As for the Imperial City, it is located in the very center of the Apocalypse City, born in the emperor's house, Qimen Dunjia is a compulsory course, no wonder Li Wan'er, who only cultivated in the condensation period at that time, understood the technique of Qimen Dunjia that is difficult for even a foundation building monk to master for a while!
The names of the main streets of Tianqi City are more regular, the north and south are the roads, the east and west are the streets, the streets in the city are roughly divided into three kinds, one is the bluestone official road, the twelve gates are directly opposite this kind of official road, which is paved by large stone blocks polished in blue, with a total width of twenty-four zhang, slightly higher in the center, there are drainage ditches on both sides, and there is a drainage well every two hundred and forty zhang. This astonishing width is obviously larger than what Yun Xuan knew, the width of the stadium dedicated to international football matches on the earth in the previous life, although it has gone through nearly 10,000 years of wind and rain, and has been baptized by war many times, it still stands to this day, witnessing the rise and fall of the imperial capital Apocalypse City.
The second is the Fangfang Road. The street is a road, the width varies from zhang Xu to two zhang, there are bluestone, gravel, loess and so on, depending on the urban area. In a rich and prosperous place, the roads are smooth and the sewerage facilities are perfect, but if the poor live, the roads are uneven, the sewerage is blocked, and in the summer rain, there is a lot of mud and mud, and the stench is foul.
The arrival of Yun Tianzong's convoy was the closing stage of the White Market Trade in Apocalypse City, preparing for the arrival of the night market, the streets were lined with people busily shuttling, but the order did not seem chaotic at all, everything was going on in an orderly manner.
Li Wan'er leaned into Yun Xuan's ear and whispered: "These are all retail and small wholesale businesses, real bulk transactions, all of which are carried out in the trade center next to the ancient canal, all the streets of the imperial capital Apocalypse City are criss-crossed with each other, and the length is almost the same, if you look down from a high altitude, it will be like a 'well field', it is magnificent......
The third is the alley in the fang. Between the courtyards in the square, alleys are naturally formed, and the alleys where the powerful live, the alleys are neat and wide, especially the roads between the poor and the lowly.
Li Wan'er pointed to the majestic crimson palace wall in the distance, and introduced: "That's where the imperial city is located!" The canal outside the imperial city is the canal with the water as the main body, which is the most important waterway in the Apocalypse City.
Yun Xuan shook slightly, and looked in the direction of Li Wan'er's finger, only to see that at the end of the distant line of sight, there was a crimson palace wall several zhang high, solemn and magnificent, Yun Xuan looked at the palace wall in a daze, the original owner, Xiao Liuzi, was born in the building inside the palace wall......
