[By the way, a little bit of a reminder.] Don't complete the task well because this system is cute, otherwise there will still be punishment. 】

The voice of the new system was always so brisk, but Gu Ziyan silently closed his eyes: "I know." ”

The so-called punishment, the previous system has already taught him what to do.

In the world of the system, the great plot of the world is the largest, and all the things that interfere with the development of the plot are not allowed.

In order to achieve the first mission released by the upgraded system, he must start the action as soon as possible. With Gu Ziyan's current age, it is the best time to start cultivating, if he can enter a sect that is superior in all aspects at the beginning, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort.

Only with sufficient cultivation can everything be done more conveniently.

Anyway, let's go to the nearby city and ask for news first.

Calling up the map provided by the system as usual, Gu Ziyan found the closest city to his location.

Cangtianzhou, Biluo City.

On the way out of that unknown mountain forest, Gu Ziyan encountered a lot of Linghua fairy grass that could be named, and they were all precious varieties that were more than 100 years old. Of course, he was not polite, and carefully put it into the package provided by the system.

This package was also there before, but because the capacity was too small compared to his previous Qiankun ring, it was basically unused.

Now he realized the benefits of this package, although there were not many things that could be contained, there was absolutely no danger of being snatched away. This is simply an artifact for Gu Ziyan, who basically has no combat power now.

Moreover, Gu Ziyan actually found some immortal jade that was the common currency of the Nine Heavens Continent in this package. He didn't remember when he put it in, but judging from the condition, the aura of these immortal jades had not been lost for a long time, and they could still be classified as high-grade.

In addition to the fairy jade, Gu Ziyan found something a little strange in the package.

It was a neatly tied black rope, shaking it off in his hand, and Gu Ziyan realized that this should be a rein used to tie a horse.

Since coming to the Nine Heavens Continent, Gu Ziyan has been rampant in the cultivation realm as the Cangyan Demon Venerable, and the sky is a spell that can be mastered as early as the Yuan Infant Stage. So for so many years, he has not ridden a horse at all, how can there be a rein?

Soon, though, the system spoke out as if it had learned of his doubts.

["The Reins of the Flame Riding Horse", you can get a Flame Riding Horse after using it, is it used now?] 】

Treading the flames? Isn't that one of the top horses in the game?

As soon as this thought slipped through his mind, Gu Ziyan's hand shook and he clicked OK.

With a loud horse roar, a puff of dust was raised from the trail not far away. When the dust cleared, a black horse with red eyes, four hooves stepping on fire, and a very divine appearance appeared in front of Gu Ziyan.

At this time, Gu Ziyan vaguely remembered that the day before he was thrown into "Nine Days", he had indeed touched a prize in the game activity.

That prize is the reins of this stepping fire.

Although Gu Ziyan has seen a lot of horses in the game, they are all in the screen across the screen. Now that the distance is so close, he almost subconsciously reached out and touched the horse's head, but the height was not enough, and he had to stand on tiptoe to reach it when touching.

Regarding Gu Ziyan's behavior, Ta Yan, who looked a little scary, snorted with disdain.

Despite this, in the end, it lowered its tall horse's head slightly, so that Gu Ziyan, who had just reached the height of his horse's back, could pet it.

The exhaled breath was scorching, like an invisible flame.

Breath like this, Gu Ziyan had only seen it on the body of the Chiyan Dragon Clan in the Eastern Dragon Cave.

It seems that because he followed Gu Ziyan to the Nine Heavens Continent, the realm of this horse has also improved accordingly. Today's Tayan is not only a cool-looking mount, but also a divine horse mixed with the blood of the ancient dragon clan.

Looking at the eyes of Tayan as if burning flames, Gu Ziyan's eyes also reflected excitement that was difficult to hide.

He put the reins in his hand on the horse's head, which was hanging low, and flipped onto the horse's back in a somewhat ugly posture that did not affect the result. During this period, if it wasn't for Ta Yan holding his waist and helping him, Gu Ziyan would have almost fallen.

There is no way, a short calf is a hard injury.

Sitting on the back of the horse, Gu Ziyan gently pulled the reins, and Ta Yan already understood, and drove him towards the destination.

Ta Yan lived up to his name, and when he galloped, he was like the wind under his feet, and his speed was even a few points faster than that of ordinary Yuan Infant monks. With this good horse, Gu Ziyan no longer has to worry about his lack of cultivation, and he has to find other things to travel.

The sound of the wind whistling past his ears, carrying the flames, Gu Ziyan arrived outside Biluo City in a time far beyond the estimate.

The Nine Heavens Continent is composed of a total of five states, namely Cangtian Prefecture in the east, Xuantian Prefecture in the north, Haotian Prefecture in the west, Yantian Prefecture in the south, and Juntian Prefecture surrounded by other states in the center.

Although the situation of these five continents is different, there is no doubt that the Juntian Continent in the center is the most extensive and the region with the richest cultivation resources. This made most of the high-level cultivators in the entire Nine Heavens Continent, as well as the strongest sects, exist in Jun Tianzhou, and many other monks on the Four Directions Continent all want to go to Jun Tianzhou to further improve their cultivation.

And Biluo City, where Gu Ziyan is going, is one of the most prosperous cities in the Eastern Cangtian Prefecture.

Before entering the city, because he didn't want to be too conspicuous, Gu Ziyan took the Tayan back into the stable provided by the system.

Speaking of which, since his Yuan Soul was reborn on the Spirit Grass, without the identity and power of the Cangyan Demon Venerable, the game system that had been ignored by him before was used more and more. What hidden backpacks and stables are very practical for him now, but unfortunately because he hasn't started practicing yet, and he can't control spiritual power, the skill system is not open.

If nothing else, these skills are also a great help for Gu Ziyan's cultivation path.

It's summer, and the city is full of flowers, greenery, and the wide streets are lined with shops and pedestrians. From time to time, cultivators driving rare beasts or magic weapons pass by, attracting the attention of several people.

Gu Ziyan is no stranger to these scenes, so he didn't cast too much attention. Instead, he looked at both sides of the street, looking for a shop that had been marked on the map.

After a moment, his footsteps stopped.

In front of this pavilion that occupies a street market, called Linglong Pavilion, is a place dedicated to Xiuzhen-related business. Such places may not be rare, but the special thing about Linglong Pavilion is that it is not just a shop, it is almost all over every city in the Nine Heavens Continent.

Since a long, long time ago, the top-level exotic flowers and plants, spiritual treasure immortal artifacts that could be bought in every city, and even the most secret stories in the entire Nine Heavens Continent could only be found in the Linglong Pavilion.

In addition to the conspicuous plaque at the entrance of the store, there was also a small plaque with a gilded "Su" written on it.

I never expected it...... The Linglong Pavilion in Biluo City is actually managed by the Su family, and it is really a narrow road. But he still has to do what he should do, and in Su Pu's memory, after he was adopted by his aunt, he was locked up in a small courtyard alone, with almost no contact with outsiders, even if it was the Su family in the Linglong Pavilion, he might not necessarily recognize who he was.

When he stepped into Linglong Pavilion, Gu Ziyan felt a kind of desertion that should not have appeared in the shop. It was as if there was an invisible barrier separating the entire Linglong Pavilion from the bustling streets outside.

This is a commonly used defensive magic array, and most of the various immortal cultivation sects in Jun Tianzhou also use this array, and there is no threat when it is not activated.

It's just that before Gu Ziyan stepped over the threshold with both feet, he heard a salty and non-salty scolding from the store: "Boy, don't you get into the Linglong Pavilion, don't you understand?" ”

Gu Ziyan's movements paused, but he continued to walk in.

looked at the person who had just reprimanded, it was an old man with a little gray hair on his sideburns, and he had the cultivation of the ninth layer of the foundation. Even now, he was still crouching behind the counter, bowing his head to settle the accounts, and he didn't even look at Gu Ziyan with his eyes.

After being silent for a few seconds, Gu Ziyan made sure that the old man didn't know him, and when he spoke again, there was no nervousness or anger in his voice that ordinary people should have: "I'm not an idler, I'm here to ......."

Seeing that the person who came not only did not leave because of his own reprimand, but went further, the old man finally raised his head. Raising his eyes and looking at Gu Ziyan, the old man interrupted him with some impatience: "You are a mortal who has not yet cut the veins, but you have come to Linglong Pavilion, what are you if you are not an idler?" ”

If you want to cultivate immortals and enter the Tao, you must first go through the "cutting veins" to penetrate and refine the meridians around your body, so that you can absorb the aura of heaven and earth and enter the first stage of Qi cultivation period.

The young man in front of him had neither cultivation nor any signs of qi inducing into his body, so the old man regarded him as a mortal who had come to make trouble. Biluo City is so big, and it is not without people who have come to make trouble like this before, so the old man's eyes when he looked at Gu Ziyan were also high and with unconscious contempt.

This glance, like a spark, lit Gu Ziyan.

He hated those looks.

"So far, you have only built nine layers of foundation." The words are very plain, not like a mockery, but like a statement of fact.

Gu Ziyan, who has always been calm on the surface, is an unforgiving master by nature. Otherwise, he would not have been thrown into "Nine Days" to atone for his crime because he broke the author's glass heart.

The old man's face turned red, the biggest pain in his life was that he was stuck on the ninth layer of the foundation building, unable to form a golden pill, and was gradually neglected by the family. Therefore, he can only be a small steward in this Linglong Pavilion, and he is getting old.

At this time, he was pointed out by a half-old child, and he was furious: "The vertical son is ignorant! How dare a layman talk about cultivating immortals. Someone, get him out of here! ”
