As the royal realm of the Eastern Domain of the Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms, the Upper Realm of the Phantom Sword is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Therefore, the upper realm of the phantom sword adopts the management mode of the city lord system, and all kinds of large and small cities are scattered in the vast upper realm of the phantom sword, collectively referred to as the 30,000 cities of the phantom sword. The 30,000 cities have their own 30,000 city lords in charge of their respective territories, and only those who cultivate to be at least above the Yuan Immortal are eligible to serve as the city lord of the big city, and the true immortal can serve as the city lord of the small city. There were a large number of borderlands or common areas between cities, and the battles between cities evolved from the earliest large-scale fights to the current debate of winning and losing, which both reduced losses and encouraged the cities to produce younger generations.

The strength under the True Immortal is too low to be the mainstay, and the people above the True Immortal are too rare, and there are nearly 10,000 Yuan Immortals in the Upper Realm of the Phantom Sword, but it is overstretched in the vast land, as well as in managing the affairs of various middle and lower worlds. Therefore, no matter which high-level world you are in, the true immortal is the real mainstream, and those who have not entered the true immortal are actually no different from the commoners.

Nine Abyss City is located in the southernmost part of the Upper Realm of the Phantom Sword, and it is a main city in the south. The city lord of Nine Abyss City was Shen Jianbing, who was the third-order strength of the Yuan Immortal. Shen Jianbing has a close relationship with Ten Thousand Swords City, and his wife is said to be a relative of the City Lord of Ten Thousand Swords City, so he can be in charge of a main city with the strength of the third order of Yuan Immortal. Fortunately, Jiuyuan City is located in a remote area, and the overall cultivation level of the people in the territory is not high, so with his strength, he can still manage this area well.

In the City Lord's Mansion of Jiuyuan City, Shen Jianbing was dressed in golden clothes, showing his extraordinary identity, with a square face with a pair of mustaches. He was originally carefree, but now he frowned, and his eyes were full of helplessness. After a while, a woman in a long floral dress walked in, holding a bowl of ginseng soup in her hand.

"You drink soup first to make up for it, you're tired these days. "The woman is none other than the city lord of Jiuyuan City, Mrs. Wan Qianxue.

"Yes, ma'am. By the way, how did Ten Thousand Swords City reply to the letter?" Shen Jianbing hurriedly asked.

Wan Qianxue has a gentle temperament and outstanding appearance, and she is a famous beauty in Jiuyuan City. At this moment, her face was not very good, and she shook her head, "You know that I am a guilty body, and Ten Thousand Swords City will not pay attention to my letter for help." ”

Shen Jianbing hurriedly comforted: "What happened back then, it was all the fault of Wan Jianying, but it affected you." ”

"Don't say that, she's my best sister, but unfortunately I can't help her with anything. Thousands of snow's eyes were full of helplessness.

"Since Ten Thousand Swords City doesn't care, this matter is up to us. I believe that there will be a brave man under the heavy reward!I will definitely save my heart!" Shen Jianbing said with a resolute face.

"That Nine Abyss Ancient City is extraordinary, our Yuan Immortal strength enters it, it is just a ruined city, and after the people under the Yuan Immortal enter, no one comes out. So many waves of people have not heard from them, and I am afraid that no one dares to set foot easily. Even Master Yun himself fell into it. Wan Qianxue said that the Master Yun in her mouth was the most powerful formation master in Nine Abyss City, the Cloud Zhongbai of the Ninth Order of True Immortals. However, their son Shen Xin fell into it while accompanying Yun Zhongbai to investigate the Ancient City of Nine Abysses and never returned. The ancient city of Jiuyuan is like an abyss, under the Yuan Immortal, you can only enter but not out, and after entering above the Yuan Immortal, you will find nothing. So they could only ask for help from Ten Thousand Swords City, but unfortunately Ten Thousand Swords City didn't pay attention to them.

After passing through the layers of star gates, Ye Xiao finally set foot in the upper realm of the phantom sword for the first time. After purchasing an incomplete map of the Illusion Sword Upper Realm in a certain city, Ye Xiao went straight to Jiuyuan City. Now Ye Xiao's strength has reached a bottleneck, and conventional methods cannot be improved at all, so he can only pin his hopes on various adventure inheritances, and the five treasure maps left to him by the Dragon Mother are a shortcut. One of the treasure maps recorded the location near the Nine Abyss City in the Upper Realm of the Phantom Sword.

"It is worthy of the upper star boundary, and the concentration of spiritual energy here far exceeds that of the immortal realm. But it's too big here, and it hasn't arrived after flying at a speed of two ha for ten days and ten nights. Ye Xiao was a little speechless and said, the upper realm of the phantom sword is too big, it is impossible for the teleportation array to cover all places, many places have to travel by themselves, and the distance is far beyond Ye Xiao's imagination, the two cities marked very close on the map, Ye Xiao flew for ten days and ten nights. You must know that Erha's speed is much faster than that of ordinary airplanes, ten days and ten nights are enough to circle the earth several times, but this is only the distance between the two cities in the upper realm of the Phantom Sword.

Finally, a huge city appeared in Ye Xiao's eyes. The high city walls stand in all directions, the houses in the city walls are lined up one after another, the height is staggered, and the buildings of various styles show the tolerance and atmosphere of Jiuyuan City. A city is like a small world that accommodates countless people, and the city is the stronghold of the human race and the home of many people.

In order not to cause panic, Ye Xiao took back Erha early, and changed his appearance with the Golden Dee Phantom Face, and assumed the pseudonym Xiao Ye. Ye Xiao's name has long been famous in the heavens, and Ye Xiao's portrait has also spread throughout many star boundaries, so he wisely chose to disguise.

"The upper immortal is the strength of the true immortal, and entering the Nine Abyss City is free of entry fees. The gate guard of Jiuyuan City said respectfully when he saw Ye Xiao.

"Hmm, why is Jiuyuan City's attitude towards outsiders so good?" Ye Xiao walked into the city with doubts. However, the people in the city were not as peaceful and lively as Ye Xiao imagined. All the pedestrians had unease, worry and sadness on their faces.

Ye Xiao walked into a luxurious restaurant, only food Ye Xiao couldn't resist, every time he went to a treasure place, he would taste the top local food, and the benefits of not bad money were here.

"Little Er, what is the top food in Jiuyuan City?" Ye Xiao asked curiously.

The little er's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly recommended: "Back to the Immortal Chief, my Phoenix Tower has seventy-two unique treasures, and each of them can be called a unique treasure in Jiuyuan City." ”

"Seventy-two treasures, let's have a copy of the same. Ye Xiao didn't even ask about the price.

"Well... Okay!" Xiao Er was stunned, knowing that he had encountered a big sum, seventy-two rare dishes worth one high-grade spirit stone, a total of seventy-two high-grade spirit stones. Not everyone can afford to eat so much money for one meal.

Soon Ye Xiao was invited into a VIP room, which had a huge crystal round table. Seventy-two dishes were served quickly. Ye Xiao called out Cang Xiang, as a lonely foodie, it is a blessing to have someone to share the food with, obviously Cang Xiang knows this well. Xiao Bai lay on Ye Xiao's shoulder, glanced at the 'food' on the table, and was not interested at all. It yawned lazily and went back to sleep.

"Yes, yes, this dish is crisp and delicious, and the food is like a spring breeze, this is the taste of spring." Cang Xiang ate the food and commented. When Xiao Er came in and saw this scene, he was not surprised, and it was not uncommon for spirit beasts to spit out words. It's just that very few people are so kind to spirit animals, and even sit at the same table.

"This is the first time this Immortal Elder has come to my Nine Abyss City. Xiao Er asked suddenly.

"Hmm? yes. Ye Xiao nodded.

"Is the Immortal Elder here to hunt for treasure?" Xiao Er asked again.

The chopsticks in Ye Xiao's hand stopped, and he looked at Xiao Er suspiciously, this Xiao Er was just a Four Elephant Realm cultivator, how could he so assert his purpose.

"If the Immortal Chief wants to go to the Nine Abyss Ancient City to hunt for treasure, I have a map here that may be able to help you. Xiao Er said again.

"Map? Ye Xiao became more and more confused, and had some bad premonitions in his heart.

"Hey, hey, this one. Xiao Er had a smile on his face, Ye Xiao understood, and directly handed him a high-grade spirit stone.

Xiao Er smiled when he received the spirit stone, and a map of the bad street could be exchanged for a high-grade spirit stone, and he made a lot of money. Then he handed over a map to Ye Xiao.

But Ye Xiao's eyes were glazed after unfolding the map and looking at it, this map turned out to be exactly the same as the treasure map left by the Dragon Mother. What has happened in these 10,000 years? Why did the precious treasure map become a rotten street!

"That immortal chief, the villain has to remind you. It's best not to go treasure hunting in the Ancient City of Nine Abysses, this treasure map may be a conspiracy. Xiao Er held the high-grade spirit stone in his hand and felt that he should remind Ye Xiao.

"How do you say this?" Ye Xiao wondered.

Xiao Er patiently explained: "Not long ago, the ruins of an ancient city appeared in the north of Jiuyuan City. At the same time, a treasure map flowed out, and many people followed the treasure map's guidance to the ancient city of the Nine Abysses to hunt for treasure. However, a bizarre thing happened, and all the people below who were Yuan Immortal cultivators entered this ancient city and never came out again. The temptation of treasure maps is so great that many people do not believe in evil, and groups of treasure hunters are lost in it. This matter eventually attracted the attention of the lord of the castle, but the lord of the castle himself went to investigate, and there was nothing strange about the ancient city. Many Yuan Immortal masters also came to see it, and they didn't find anything abnormal. Later, the son of the city lord and Master Yun also wanted to solve the mystery of the ancient city, but in the end, they also fell into it and never came out again. Nowadays, no one dares to set foot in it easily. The city lord also set a reward of 100 immortal crystals, calling on people with lofty ideals to solve the mysteries of the ancient city to see if they could rescue those trapped in the ancient city. However, no one dares to take on this task today. ”

"How can there be such a thing?" Ye Xiao's eyes flashed when he heard this, and the Dragon Mother's extensive knowledge naturally did not leave a fake picture. It's just that during this period, 10,000 years have passed, and many things have changed from time to time. "So the city lord has personally been to the Nine Abyss Ancient City?"

"That's right. Hey, the sons of the city lord have fallen into it, but the lord of the city can't do anything about it. There was also a fairy-like figure who came here before, although she was only in the realm of true immortals, her strength was incredible, even the city lord of the Yuan Immortal realm was not her opponent. It's a pity that she still fell into the ancient city and never came out again. That is, since her, no one dared to set foot in the ancient city for half a step. Even such characters have been planted, let alone others. Xiao Er sighed.

"With the realm of true immortals, you can defeat the Yuan Immortal master!, who is she?" Ye Xiao asked curiously.

"I don't know, but I heard what it's called... What a bright moon. ”
