Chapter 560: The Illusion of the Full Moon Night in Phantom Moon City
Tianlong Continent, three kilometers outside Phantom Moon City, by the sea.
"Phantom Moon City? It turns out that this is the world-famous seaside city Phantom Moon City! Great! I have been flying in the sea for seven days and seven nights, but I didn't expect to see a decent big city as soon as I came ashore. Seeing that there are quite a lot of people at the gate of this city, I must have a map to sell in such a prosperous big city, I have to quickly buy a detailed map, find the direction of the Black River Valley, and then rush over to find my mother. Mother, wait for Yang'er, Yang'er will be able to see you soon. ”
When I flew out of the sea with the water-sheltering pearl in my mouth, landed steadily on a reef by the sea, and looked at a majestic-looking city gate in the distance, I silently muttered in my heart with emotion.
After finishing speaking, I gently spit out the water-avoiding divine bead in my mouth, and looked at the dark blue crystal divine bead floating in front of my eyes, and I was also delighted.
Because the week before, it was with this divine bead in my mouth that I successfully left the small island where I was once imprisoned, crossed the vast sea, and came to the most famous town on the coast of the Heavenly Dragon Continent, Phantom Moon City.
As for this pearl, it was given to me by the shark couple I rescued.
This divine pearl not only allows me to walk on the ground in the depths of the sea, but also allows me to soar like a bird in the sea, and even during the week of my flight, I don't need to eat or sleep, and I always keep a very clear head, and fly in the sea until the coastline of the Tianlong Continent.
It can be seen that this divine bead does have extremely extraordinary magical power, which means that with it, I can easily live in the sea without wasting any soul power and physical strength in the future.
After carefully tucking the water-repellent bead into my wrench, I took out a clean set of ancient robes from the storage space of the wrench, put it on, and strode towards the city gate in the distance.
Originally, I wanted to summon Bela Duoduo, the head of the Pony Mansion, to come out and tell her about my current situation. By the way, I also want my baby daughter to come out to play.
But after thinking about it, I feel that I have just returned to the real world, and I have not fully recovered my memory of this world, and I don't know much about this world and the dangers I may face, so it is better to wait for me to enter Phantom Moon City and choose a relatively safe time to summon them out, which is more secure.
In my memory, this famous coastal city located in the easternmost part of the Tianlong Continent, if you stare at the full moon reflected on the water for more than a quarter of an hour at midnight on the fifteenth day of every month, you will inexplicably fall into some kind of extremely realistic illusion, and be in a state of temporary unconsciousness.
Because this state of falling into the illusion will last for a whole hour, it is called Phantom Moon City.
Those who fall into the illusion can also meet their deceased relatives and friends who miss the most in this illusion, so it also attracts many daring people to try it on such a night.
The reason why only the brave dare to try it is because this extremely realistic illusion can also cause personal casualties, so people who cherish their lives still dare not take risks easily.
I once heard my mother mention the strangeness of this city, saying that if someone is bitten by a wild beast in the illusion, then when they wake up from the illusion, there will really be traces of the beast's bite on their body, just like when they were unconscious, they really met an extremely fierce beast.
This bizarre phenomenon has remained a mystery for thousands of years because no one has been able to find out the cause.
As dangerous as it is, on this day of the month, as long as it is midnight, there are more or less people who take the risk.
So much so that every morning some families are broken because of this, but there are also some lucky people who get rich overnight.
Or maybe a person who originally did not have the physique of cultivating immortals and opening spirits, but because of this illusion, he accidentally opened his spirits and embarked on the enviable road of cultivating immortals.
There are even a very small number of immortal cultivators who will try to gamble with the illusion realm when they can't break through to a certain realm when they can't break through, and once they survive, they may become the dragon and phoenix among the people.
This also caused many people who were unwilling to be subservient to others, dragged their families with their families, and traveled thousands of miles to settle in the most marginal city of the Tianlong Continent, try their luck, and maybe they would be able to live the life of their dreams from now on.
As I hurried along, I recalled all kinds of absurd legends about Phantom Moon City, and I also had a trace of impulse in my heart, that is, whether I should also take the risk of trying this so-called illusion at midnight on the fifteenth day of this month.
Because I feel that I have not been enlightened so far, this will also add a lot of unknowns to my future life in this Xianxia world that advocates immortal cultivation.
Besides, I still have to help my father and mother clear their grievances, and the enemies I face will definitely not be general, and it will be difficult to compete with each other with my current ability.
After all, if the other party can set up such a wonderful situation, and successfully frame the crown prince and the crown princess, who are the most trusted and respected in the saints today, into a rebellious rebellious minister and thief, it is enough to see that the other party is not only clever in means, but also in terms of power.
If I'm not mistaken, the other party's forces must be full of talents, and there are many people who have reached a very high level of immortal cultivation to help them secretly.
Therefore, if I can't open my spirit as soon as possible and ascend to the realm of cultivating immortals as soon as possible, then I won't be able to fight against this evil force hidden in the shadows at all.
In addition, this Tianlong Continent is too big, I have reason to believe that it will definitely be an extremely long journey from this Phantom Moon City to the Black River Valley where my mother was exiled, and it will inevitably encounter various crises during this period, if I can't have enough immortal cultivation ability to protect myself, it will be difficult to reach the Black River Valley alive.
Even if I arrive in the Black River Valley, it will not be easy to break through the Royal Shadow Elite guards guarding the entrance to the Black River Valley, as well as the border army, enter the Black River Valley to rescue the Yun Clan, and return to the Imperial City.
Thinking of this, I also felt a lot of pressure, so I quickened my pace again and hurried towards the gate of Phantom Moon City.
I know that only by entering the city early, buying a map, and carefully inquiring about the general state of immortal cultivators in this world, can I be more confident that I can reach the Black River Valley alive, and finally rescue the Yun clan, and return to the imperial city alive with my mother and her clansmen.
When I came to a distance of less than five hundred meters from the city gate, I had to slow down, because there were many people gathered here at the moment, waiting in a long line to enter the city.
Seeing that the darkness in front of me was full of people waiting to enter the city, and the extremely slow pace of progress, I looked up again at the setting sun, and I knew that if I had lined up step by step, it would have been impossible to enter the city before dark.
I probably glanced at the dense queue of people around me, and found that they didn't look like they were particularly wealthy, so I thought there should be a VIP passage for nobles at the gate of this city.
But the whole city gate was crowded, and I really couldn't find out where the dignitaries were going to be, so I had to go to a tree, pretend to crouch down and lean against the tree to rest, and close my eyes to recuperate.
In fact, the moment I closed my eyes, I turned on the soul clairvoyance ability, and carefully checked the range of ten kilometers from the other party.
Because I was only five hundred meters away from the city gate, my soul's clairvoyance vision already included the inside of Phantom Moon City.
I saw that the city was also full of people, lively and lively, as if some grand parade was being held, and I saw that every household had gone out, and everyone who had just entered the city was rushing towards the center of Phantom Moon City in an orderly manner.
To my belief, it seemed that in this large crowd, all the boys and girls about my age were wearing white robes, surrounded by people in dark clothes, and walking forward.
It's just that these young boys and girls are all serious at the moment, surrounded by family members who don't know what to say, and walk towards the center of the city with great reverence.
Since my soul clairvoyance can only reach a position nine kilometers from the city gate, and it is still far from the center of the city, I don't know what everyone is flocking to the center for.
I hurriedly used the powerful power of the soul's clairvoyance to listen to the voices of everyone, and see if I could figure out why the people of the city were so reverently rushing to the center of the city.
It's a pity that what I heard from everyone was a very obscure, scripture thing, so after listening to it for a while, I still couldn't figure out what was going on.
I had no choice but to reclaim my soul clairvoyance and start looking at the others outside the city to see if I could see any clues.
I also secretly pondered in my heart, if I really can't do it, just open my eyes and find someone around me to inquire.
After a quick look, I saw that the people outside the city were not at all like the people in the city, reciting scriptures that I did not understand at all, but chatting with excitement and anticipation, and from time to time looking eagerly at the gate of the city, apparently they only wanted to enter the city quickly.
I also noticed that the people outside the city were the same as the people in the city, that is, most of the older people wore very dark robes, except for the boys and girls my age, who all wore white robes or skirts.
And I could tell from the look on their faces that they seemed to be very stressed, very nervous.
And because I have always preferred white robes, the robes specially tailored for me have always been mostly white.
So at this moment, I happen to be dressed like boys and girls my age.
The only difference was that the boys and girls were accompanied by family and friends, while I was alone.
When I opened my eyes and walked over to the group of people closest to me, I also caught the attention of those people.
It's just that what I didn't expect was that when those people saw that I was only one person, they all showed extremely incredible expressions.
When I saw everyone staring at me with such strange eyes, I also became more curious......
