Chapter 582: Jingzhou City
"Seals?"
Regarding the origin of the lamp, the only thing Mu Yi knew was that the old Tao gave it to him, and even at first it was only used as an oil lamp, until he began to practice, he gradually became familiar with the ability and use of the lamp, and then later, he chose the right fire for the lamp, which is now Nanming Lihuo.
With the possession of the fire, the power of the lamp is officially reflected, and then the broken runes of the lamp are completed, and the lamp is completely restored.
At this moment, even Mu Yi couldn't get a glimpse of what level of magic weapon the salary lamp belonged to, but it was definitely much more powerful than he thought at the beginning.
But he never thought that just when he thought that the lamp had reached its limit, he found a mysterious seal in the deepest part, and the aura emitted by the seal, even with Mu Yi's current strength, he faintly felt palpitations, at least at the level, it was obvious beyond him.
Although Mu Yi was also full of curiosity about this seal, he was not stupid enough to touch it, even if he really wanted to know the truth, it would have to wait until he had enough strength, now, it was too early.
Therefore, Mu Yi decisively withdrew his mental strength, and then, the lamp changed for a while, once again covering the seal in the deepest place, where it could not be reached on weekdays.
Seeing that the seal didn't look like it would explode in a short period of time, and it wouldn't affect his normal use of the salary lamp, Mu Yi was also relieved in his heart, after all, today's salary lamp can be said to be his biggest reliance, and he can match the pseudo-celestials, part of which is relying on the power of the salary lamp.
Unless he can fuse the true meaning of water and fire again, then even if there is no salary lamp, he can completely suppress the pseudo-celestials, but it is too difficult to fuse the true meaning of water and fire, last time he was just a fluke, but this is at least a direction, maybe one day by mistake, it will be successful again, and with the first time, there will be a second time, a third time, until it is fully mastered.
The night passed quickly, and when he woke up the next day, Mu Yi only felt refreshed and interested, and he let out a long roar, which suddenly radiated like rolling thunder.
In the distance, the beasts and monsters that were originally foraging for food suddenly fled in fright, and even a cloud in the sky was torn apart in this long roar.
After feeling comfortable, Mu Yi began to hurry, and without the drag of the little girl, Mu Yi was able to give full play to his speed, and in only half a day, he arrived in Jingzhou City, which also had a lot to do with his strength improvement.
Jingzhou City, one of the few remaining big cities of the human race, looks from afar, it looks like a Xiongguan, towering there, the city wall is majestic, the height alone is dozens of zhang, standing at the foot, suddenly there is a feeling of insignificance.
The city wall presents a dark red, as if it has been stained with blood, and traces of repair can be seen in many places, pitted and full of sword and axe marks, condensing a desolate breath of time, that kind of heaviness, as well as the protection it represents, constantly impacting Mu Yi's heart.
He seemed to see countless Terran heroic spirits fighting with other races in the underworld on the city wall and under the city wall in order to protect this giant city, inch by inch of the city wall and inch by inch of blood, it can be said that the wall in front of him is poured out of blood and flesh and bones.
"Young man, it's the first time you've come to Jingzhou City?"
Just when Mu Yi fell into contemplation, a slightly old voice sounded next to him, Mu Yi turned his head, only to see an old man in linen clothes looking at him with a smile, the old man is not tall, half a head shorter than Mu Yi, his hair is gray, his face is full of wrinkles, but his eyes are very bright, more importantly, Mu Yi did not feel a trace of breath on him, the other party is just an ordinary old man.
"Yes, uncle." Mu Yi smiled slightly, and did not despise the other party at all because he was an ordinary person.
"Alone?" The old man asked again.
"Yes." Mu Yi nodded.
"The young man is good, dare to cross the wilderness alone, my human race needs a brave young man like you." The old man looked at Mu Yi with admiration on his face, and his eyes showed a kind of light looking at his children and grandchildren.
"If you don't mind, the young man lives in my house, and he happens to be a companion with the old man, if you want to know about Jingzhou City, I can also tell you that I have lived in this city for sixty years." The old man looked up and looked at the city wall with memories and sentimentality.
"The old man invited, and that kid might as well be respectful." Mu Yi did not resist the other party's kindness, and more importantly, he didn't feel even a trace of hostility from the other party, and he was just an ordinary old man, maybe he saw him think of his children, or maybe he was too lonely.
In short, Mu Yi followed the old man into Jingzhou City, and when he passed through the city gate, a bronze mirror inlaid in the gatehouse suddenly lit up, and the light was very faint, and it disappeared in a flash, and it did not attract people's attention.
However, the old man seemed to want to tell Mu Yi everything he knew, so he deliberately pointed out this bronze mirror, this realm is called the Demon Mirror, although the name has a demon word, but in fact, not only the demon clan, but even the ghost clan, and other races, can also be illuminated.
The purpose of this demon mirror is to prevent races other than the human race from mixing in and causing unrest.
And in fact, since this demon mirror was hung, it has really caught a lot of spies, no matter how superb the other party's disguise is, it has been clearly illuminated, unless the other party reaches the king level, or can avoid the light of the demon mirror, but if there is really a king coming, I am afraid that the guardian of the city will be the first to come and directly prevent the other party from stepping in.
Of course, Jingzhou City can stand on the land of the underworld and has been passed down for so many years, it must have its dependence, and Mu Yi guessed that it should be something like a large array, and only this kind of thing can protect the giant city and the human race in the city to the greatest extent.
Jingzhou City is very large, according to the old man, there are at least hundreds of thousands of people here, and there may be more, most of the people in the city are actually ordinary people, but the number of cultivators and martial artists is also very high, second- and third-rate powerhouses can be seen everywhere, even the first-class realm, along the way, Mu Yi has seen no less than ten.
Moreover, compared to the Terran villages that Mu Yi saw in the wilderness, the Terrans living in the city obviously did not have that kind of precarious worry on their faces, as if the tall city wall outside gave them enough security.
In fact, it is true that in a big city like Jingzhou City, there are human elders in the city, that is, the so-called guardians, at least they are also strong people at the level of heaven and man, this is a real celestial, not a pseudo-celestial.
According to the words of the village chief of Jiangjia Village, there are only three big cities left in the human race, and this Jingzhou City is one of them, and in the human race, there are still eight elders, these elders are all strong people at the level of heaven and man, in addition, there are two major semi-saints.
However, most of the semi-saint-level powerhouses are in seclusion on weekdays, and they are not even in the big city at all, in fact, even many elders cannot be concentrated in one place, generally one elder sits in one place, some people are in charge of this kind of big city, and some people are in charge of the human race in the wilderness.
After all, according to the original plan, the Terrans in the wilderness are obviously more important, because they are always in danger and have stronger potential, but just in case, there is a big city, so even if all the Terrans in the wilderness are sacrificed, at least there is a spark of hope.
Facts have proved that after so many years, the Terran sages who formulated that plan at the beginning were successful, and the Terran continued to pour out strong people, so that the Terran could resist the oppression of the demon and demon races and be able to breathe.
Mu Yi came to his residence with the old man, it was a somewhat narrow courtyard, and almost all around it was this kind of existence, the alley was very narrow, two people walking side by side could wipe the wall, and the smell was a little unpleasant, of course, there were good places in Jingzhou City, but those who lived there were generally strong people.
The old man kept telling interesting stories about this place all the way, such as which family had a boy, who was defeated and who was a teacher, which girl married a good family, and which family added a big fat boy, which are basically small things and interesting things between neighbors.
The old man said happily, Mu Yi naturally listened to it interestingly, this kind of trivial matter, but reminded him of the days when he followed the old way to the rivers and lakes, where it was also full of all kinds of small things, interesting things, which has always made Mu Yi nostalgic.
Now, listening to the old man's words, Mu Yi even has a feeling of enjoying it.
The yard is cleaned very clean, you can see the old man's intentions, but there are three rooms, the old man lives in one, one is the hall, and one is idle, when the old man led Mu Yi in, the house was still locked, the old man found the key to open it, Mu Yi even saw the old man's slightly trembling hands.
Obviously, this room has a special meaning for the elderly.
Finally, the room was opened, it was very dry, there was not a trace of musty, the things were neatly arranged, it could be seen that they were often wiped, and on the wall, there was a bow hanging from it, and the bowstring had been broken, and there was a long spear, the tip of which had been cut off.
"This room belongs to my son, he is a martial artist, although he is only a second-rate realm, but I am already very satisfied as a father, I just hope that he can be safe and sound, but who knows, in a trial, he still died, when he died, he was about the same age as you, and even looked a little similar." The old man's eyes swept around the room and said softly, his eyes full of longing.
At this time, Mu Yi also understood why the other party invited him to his home as soon as he saw him, it turned out that it was not only to see that he had just arrived in Jingzhou City alone, but more importantly, he looked somewhat similar to his dead son, although he was regarded as a substitute, but Mu Yi was not unhappy at all.
