Chapter 9: Moon Death Palace Jingya
With Amo's identity, my travel in the Moon Palace is much easier.
In the early morning of the second day, Amo and You'an woke up, their memories were blank, they forgot who they were, they forgot where they were, and even Nangong Yan, who had just met yesterday, had no memory. In order not to arouse the suspicion of others, I extracted Amo's only second-level sub-spiritual cultivation, and before leaving the Moon Death Palace, his identity was Angel.
After breakfast, Nangong Yan gathered the ten new children, all of whom were washed away without exception, "From today onwards, you have to learn how to be a qualified waiter, Her Majesty likes Imperial Flowers, so the first skill you have to learn is to cultivate and take care of Imperial Flowers, and I will subsidize each of you with three hundred First Spirit Coins every month in the future, and if any of you perform well, I will reward you with more First Spirit Coins." ”
"First Spirit Coins?" Everyone was attracted by this reward.
In this world, cultivation can be spent as money, and each cultivator can get spirit coins corresponding to their own cultivation level by consuming spiritual power, and the exchange ratio between each level of spirit coins and the next level of spirit coins is one thousand, and spirit coins can be used to exchange items, and can also be turned into spiritual power to increase cultivation.
As the attendant of the old man Nangong Yan, Ah Mo can receive the monthly salary of five son spirit coins from Nangong Yan every month, that is, five thousand early spirit coins. In the Thousand Feather Clan, the monthly salary of the waiter ranges from 500 to 4,000 primordial spirit coins, and the monthly salary of the attendant maid ranges from three to ten spirit coins. However, in my opinion, it is really a bit slow to improve his cultivation with this method, take Ah Mo as an example, if he improves his cultivation purely through spirit coins, then he needs to consume at least 1,000 spirit coins to advance from a second-level child spirit to a third-level child spirit, that is, his monthly income for a full ten years.
……
Half a month after coming to the Moon Palace, I have gradually become accustomed to Nangong Yan's work and rest time, he will spend an hour every morning to train ten quasi-attendants, and after the training, he will practice the piano skills alone for the whole day, so that I have a lot of free time.
Because my cultivation is directly advanced from the fifth-level Holy Spirit to the fourth-level Super Holy Spirit, although my cultivation has improved, my skills are still at the Holy Spirit stage, and I have to spend a lot of time to break through my swordsmanship and illusion skills.
In those days, I visited almost every floor of the Moon Death Palace, and throughout the entire Moon Death Palace, the first and second floors were dedicated to teaching the maids and acolytes, the third to thirteenth floors were used for those below the Holy Spirit to practice, the fourteenth to twenty-fourth floors were used for those above the Holy Spirit to practice, and as for the twenty-fifth floor, it was separated by a separate barrier, and few people entered it.
The pattern of each layer of the Moon Death Palace is different, everyone who comes here to practice has high and low cultivation, low cultivators can apprentice to high cultivators, and fellow cultivators can also learn from each other at will, because Qingxiao is good at piano skills, and more than eighty percent of the people in the entire Moon Death Palace are piano masters.
I didn't have much interest in piano skills, and on the 47th day of the Moon Palace, I finally couldn't help but come to the twenty-fifth floor.
There is hardly a figure to be seen outside the gate on the 25th floor, and the surroundings are exceptionally clean, and although you are deep underground, you can still clearly feel the breeze from the ground.
At the entrance of the gate, there is a silvery red barrier, which is perfectly like an invisible wall, and even the wind blows on the barrier and it will automatically bounce back. If the fourteenth to twenty-fourth floors are the training ground for the Holy Spirit practitioners, then this must be the training ground for the super-spiritual practitioners.
After wandering outside the barrier for half an hour, I finally decided to go inside and find out. I used my illusion to open a crack in the barrier, and then I made my way through the gate on the twenty-fifth floor.
Not long after entering, several cyan streamers suddenly hit me head-on, the streamer has a strong penetration, if it weren't for the protective barrier outside my body, my body would have been injured by the streamer.
It took me some time to get rid of the pursuit of those streamers, and I thought that there would be more hurtful hidden weapons ahead, but when the entire interior of the twenty-fifth floor came into view, I was stunned.
Not far away is a huge lake surrounded by many monarch flowers and impatiens, as well as some unknown wildflowers, and next to the lake is a winding and rugged path that leads to a simple wooden house in the distance.
I wondered for a moment, this was not like a training ground at all, but like a paradise.
"How did you get in?" A deep voice suddenly came from behind, and I turned my head to see that it was an old man dressed plainly, he was holding a tool for pruning flowers and plants in one hand, and a man orchid that was about to be planted in the other.
"My name is Ah Mo, and I'm Nangong Yan's attendant..."I was a little embarrassed, I didn't expect to be discovered so quickly.
"How did the attendant on the first floor get to the twenty-fifth floor?" The old man said with the tool in his hand.
I didn't want to cause trouble, so I quickly leaned down and said, "I'm sorry, I accidentally broke into here...... I'll go out now...", I turned and walked out the door.
"Stop!" The old man yelled, and he quickly stepped forward and pressed my shoulder, "Where are you going to be?" Come when you want, go when you want? ”
"Grandpa, you're grabbing me so hard, you're about to hurt me." I showed weakness, because of this red mark on my chest, I was able to hide all my cultivation under any circumstances.
The old man was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and laughed: "What do you call me?" Grandfather? No one in the Thousand Feather Clan has dared to call me that! ”
"I just saw that you were the same age as my grandfather, so I just called out, and if you don't like it, I can stop calling." I explained.
The old man let go of his grip on me, then brought me up to him and said lightly, "You can call me whatever you like!" It's just that as Nangong Yan's attendant, how can you not cultivate at all? ”
Only then did I realize that I had hidden too much cultivation, so in order not to let the old man suspect it, I had to follow his words: "I have never passed the assessment of the Moon Death Palace before, so I can only stay in the Moon Death Palace and give Nangong Yan as an entourage." ”
The old man obviously didn't believe what I said, "You said that you are just an attendant, then how did you enter the twenty-fifth floor, there is a barrier at the entrance, and there is a lethal streamer, and people who do not have a certain cultivation cannot approach it at all." ”
"I ......" In the panic, I actually ignored this, I had to admit that the old man in front of me was really powerful, and a few words stopped me, a ten-year-old child with no experience.
The old man's gaze pressed straight to me, "Since you can't think of a suitable reason for a while, just stay, I have lived here for many years, and there is just a shortage of people who prune flowers and plants, and I will not let you go until your identity is clear." ”
"Pruning flowers? I don't understand that...", I blurted out.
"As an acolyte, can't you even do such a simple job?"
I had no choice but to stop talking.
The old man drove me into the garden outside the hut and threw me a large pile of gardening tools, so I had to follow him to plant flowers and plants.
A whole day passed, the old man didn't say a word to me, through mind reading, I roughly understood the identity of the old man, his name is Jing Yi, he is an ultimate qin envoy who has reached the second level of super holy spirit, his other identity also shocked me, he is actually Qingxiao's father, the former king of the Thousand Feather Clan.
That night, Jing Yi personally went to the first floor of the Moon Death Palace to ask Nangong Yan for me, he said that he had lived in the Moon Death Palace for a long time and needed a personal attendant, and he did not mention a word about my identity.
That day, I was very sleepy, and before Jing Yi came back from Nangong Yan, I had already fallen asleep in his bed. I haven't had a good night's sleep since the Emperor was destroyed.
Early in the morning, I was awakened by the sound of Jing Yi's piano, who was playing the piano by the lake in a plain robe.
I rubbed my sleepy eyes and came to the lake, the water was very clear, I squatted down and gently washed away the sludge that remained on my body with water.
"How long has it been since Amo came to the Moon Palace?" Jing also saw me, suddenly stopped the piano in his hand and asked.
"It's been more than 20 years." I said casually.
"I have watched you for a long time, and you do not give me the feeling of a low-ranking squire, but like a noble royal family."
I chuckled, "You're kidding..."
Jing Yi put down the piano in his hand, flashed to me and said solemnly: "I'm not joking with you, normal people usually panic after being questioned about their identity, but you don't react at all, it seems that you are not afraid of being exposed by me at all, and more importantly, although you feel like a person who has no cultivation at all during the day, but at night when you are asleep, I can't see through you at all." Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming to my Thousand Feather Clan? ”
I turned my head to look at him and continued to chuckle, "You suddenly asked me that, how do you ask me to answer you." ”
"If you don't want to speak, I have to hand you over to Qingxiao, she has a way to make you speak!"
Hearing this, I had no choice but to stand up, then turn back to my original body and say: "You don't have to look for the queen, I am the queen who brought me back personally, my name is Xingcan, and I am the prince of the emperor!" ”
Jing Yi stared at me for a long time, "You're still a child!" ”
"Yes, I'm only 10 years old."
"You just said you were the prince of the emperor? Is that the emperor who has just been wiped out by the Thousand Shadows? ”
"Exactly!" I answered.
Jing Yi suddenly smiled slightly, "Qingxiao probably doesn't know your true cultivation yet, if you can come out of the streamer gate unharmed, your cultivation must not be low, if I guess correctly, you should be the baby with extraordinary spiritual power born ten years ago." ”
"Looks like you know everything, and in that case, are you still going to hand me over to the Queen?" I asked softly.
Jing Yi shook his head and said, "I won't hand you over to the queen, but I don't understand, with your cultivation, you can leave Shuiqing Palace at any time, why do you choose to stay here as a waiter?" ”
I don't want to answer this question, although I always lie to myself that I stayed here to disguise my identity, I know that I just can't face the demise of the emperor and the loss of my family.
