Chapter 23: Black Maple City
The night star who woke up the next morning, through a whole night's rest, suddenly felt a much better mental state, looking at the little beast lying next to him who was still asleep, at this time he looked carefully, maybe because of taking the Sanpin Pill yesterday, the head and face are now a little bloody, the wound on the body has stopped bleeding, and slowly began to scab up, some of the burnt fur on the body has begun to slowly fall off, and some small new hairs are growing out of the shedding.
"Now I don't know if you're male or female, and I don't know what breed of Warcraft it is, so human. Forget it, I have to heal my wounds now, and then leave this Sunset Mountain as soon as I can when my injuries are healed. After speaking, he no longer paid attention to the sleeping little beast, his hands formed a cultivation seal in front of him, his eyes slowly closed, and the surrounding heaven and earth aura slowly entered the body of the night star, and the sword qi that was a little chaotic itself gradually became stable as the heaven and earth aura entered the dantian.
At this time, the night star in cultivation did not know that a thrilling battle was taking place in the depths of the Sunset Mountain Range at this time.
In the sky of the mountain range, the battle between Bi Fang and Qi Qi was nearing the end, and after finally paying some price, he bit Bi Fang's neck, and Bi Fang, who was already dying, slowly lowered his head with the rapid loss of blood in his body, and his body quickly lost his vitality. Throwing Bi Fang out of his mouth, he looked at the body that had long since subsided and shot away in the air, and after a while, he heard an angry roar from the silent mountain range, and it was heard far away.
In the quiet cave at this time, the little beast didn't know why, opened its bright little eyes and looked into the depths of the mountains, and let out a sad howl at the mountains. Then he turned his little head and lay motionless on his forelimbs, not knowing what he was thinking.
With the quiet cultivation, the dry dantian in the body was like a greedy child at this time, frantically absorbing the aura of heaven and earth around him. The dantian sword qi in the body slowly became more and more, and the eight veins of the Qi Jing in the body also became better, and on the third day of meditation and cultivation, the night star slowly opened his eyes. Feeling the dantian that slowly became overflowing in his body, he finally smiled. In the past three days, except for the first day, where the little beast lay quietly and did not move, the second day when it was fine, it circled around the night star, looked everywhere, and never went anywhere.
"Now I have finally regained a small half of my strength", and then looked down at the animal in front of him and was stunned for a moment, and asked with some uncertainty, "Are you a little beast?"
After listening to the words of the night star, he silently turned around and lay on the ground in a quiet daze
Looking at the little beast in front of her, which was completely different from before, it was obvious that her mouth was short, and she had a pair of small ears that were slightly round on her head. The whole body is covered with snow-white fluff and some less needle hair, and the tail is long, and the white tail end has a bundle of tail hairs that are particularly fluffy, which is clearly a fox.
However, at this time, she was facing encirclement and suppression, and she didn't know where she was, so she naturally quickly recovered from the initial shock, and since then there has been a little fox named Ling'er by the side of the night star, in order to facilitate the usual call, the night star calls her like this, whether she agrees or not, anyway, the night star likes it, because the little beast looks like a female fox, of course, this is what the night star thinks.
Finally, one afternoon ten days later, as usual, the night star closed his eyes tightly, and the seal in front of him was meditating and cultivating, and the aura of heaven and earth quickly converged, and the bones and meridians in his body seemed to have become a lot greedy, and they quickly devoured at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye. Night Star could clearly feel that the bones, meridians, and dantian that had been damaged after that great battle were being quickly repaired to their peak state, and after finally lasting for a while, Night Star felt the sword qi full of in the dantian, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, "Finally fully recovered" Night Star clenched his fists and sighed. Turned to look at Ling'er who was looking over, smiled, "It's time for us to get up and go" After speaking, he got up and hugged her in his arms and walked out of the cave with her. In this way, a man and a beast went out of the mountains again.
After more than half a long journey, finally coming to the edge of the mountain range, Nightstar took a deep breath and looked down at the little beast in his arms. Touching the soft fluff, he said softly, "It's time to separate, you're safe, if you have the chance, I hope we can see each other one day," he said, taking her out of his arms and placing her on the ground.
"Goodbye, little beast, remember to run away in case of danger in the future," he waved his hand and turned to walk out of the mountains. I hadn't gone far when I heard a movement behind me, and turned to look at the little beast that was quietly following behind me, "Are you going to follow me?"
At the top of the mountain, a boy with a fox in his arms slowly walked along the rugged mountain road towards the outside of the mountain. Half a day later, Night Star looked at the huge city gate in front of him, the crowd of people coming and going at the city gate, Night Star held Ling'er in his arms, and slowly entered the city gate along the crowded flow of people. After passing through several bustling streets, Night Star looked up at the Treasure Pavilion written on the plaque in front of him, thought for a moment and walked in.
Looking at the rare few people inside, each looking at the items in their hands, the elixirs, swordsmanship, and exercises in the hall are neatly arranged on the counters in all corners.
Looking at the night star, the shopkeeper got up and came to the front and asked politely, "This guest officer, do you need any help?"
glanced at the little brother who looked like a clerk, and then asked him with a smile.
"You have a more comprehensive map here, and it's best to have a detailed description of the nearby empires."
"Yes, the guest officer will wait a minute, I will get it for you" After speaking, he turned around and took a map.
Walking out of the Treasure Pavilion and looking at the map in his hand, he had an understanding of the place he was. Now the place where the night star is located is a city under the jurisdiction of Black Maple Village, a major force under the Devil's Domain, called Black Maple City,
The Devil's Domain, located in the northwest province of the Golden Maple Empire, although its scale is not as large as that of a big city like Kyoto, but compared to other lower-level cities, it is still a lot stronger, the Devil's Domain is hundreds of miles away, including Black Maple City, Golden Horn City, Demon Hand Skull and other large and small dozens of towns. And because of the proximity to the Sunset Mountains, countless adventurers and merchant groups come and go here, and slowly after so many years of development, it has almost become a small country with distinct distinctions, but the only difference from other empires is that there are large and small forces in this area, which are intertwined with each other, and all kinds of forces are constantly killing and fighting for their own interests, and they have become more chaotic.
However, although the chaos of the Devil's Domain is famous among several countries in the northwest, the various high-level exercises, high-level sword skills, pills and other treasures that flow through here are famous for countless powerhouses, after all, no matter what, these things are necessary things that even they covet. If you can get a high-level cultivation technique, or a high-level sword technique, then you will have an advantage over others on the way to the sword, and you will be one step closer to the path of the strong.
The Devil's Domain is like a black hole that has been devoured, and countless rare treasures flow through this place through various channels, and then auctioned off at sky-high prices, allowing countless people to compete for each other.
After understanding that Night Star plans to stay here for a short time, to see if there is anything suitable for him, Night Star who has made up his mind, finds an inn in the city that looks very lively, and in the shopkeeper quietly looking, Night Star handed over half a month's room money, and went to the rest place on the third floor with Ling'er in his arms.
The next morning, after getting up after resting all night, Night Star felt his stomach rumbling, shook his head and smiled at Ling'er who had woken up lying on the edge of the bed, "Let's go, after eating today, it's time to visit this Black Maple City."
After washing up, he took Ling'er to the dining place on the second floor, and one person and one beast found a relatively secluded corner by the window to sit down. Anyway, the master has left a lot of coins behind the ring, so I don't have to worry about eating the overlord meal. The night star, who had made up his mind, enjoyed the feeling of a rich boy in the dull gaze of the surroundings.
In Ling'er's disdainful gaze, basically all the food was eaten up by the night star, and Ling'er only drank a little gruel as before. He touched his slightly round belly and showed a satisfied expression. The night star, who was leaning back in his chair, suddenly heard a whispered conversation between the two people at the next table,
One of the chubby men said to the person opposite, "Do you know? Yesterday, I chatted with my cousin and accidentally learned from him that our annual auction in Black Maple City was about to be held. The strong of all parties will appear, you must know that there was also a ground level exercise at the auction last year, which almost made the strong people who were competing for it fight hard, if it weren't for the organizer's backstage being hard enough, hehe, I'm afraid that the auction would have become a farce. The big man on the other side smiled bitterly, "What does it have to do with mercenaries like us living at the bottom, damn, as long as Lao Tzu kills a few more demonic beasts to get the magic core, and then sells the money to raise enough yellow-level high-level exercises, maybe he will have the opportunity to become a strong party in the future, haha, come, drink".
"Ground-level fighting skills..."Hearing this, Yexing couldn't help but be happy, after all, he was cultivating ground-level intermediate exercises and ground-level high-level sword skills. Of course, Nightstar also knew that Huaibi was guilty, and he was careful every time. You must know that ordinary sword king-level powerhouses do not have ground-level exercises and ground-level sword skills.
"It seems that we have to go see this auction," he said, picking up Ling'er and leaving the table.
