Chapter 12: The Celestial Empire
Snowflakes fall all over every corner of the Oriental world, the snow and fog between the sky and the earth are boundless, the snow is scattered, such as fluttering, the earth is only plain white, at a glance, vast, quiet, comfortable.
Snow was born in the sky and died on the ground, and the process in the middle is life, but since ancient times, how many heroes and heroes have staggered through this life, in the end, what is left behind, and what is gained?
Lin Qi and Xie Wan's figures loomed in the endless snow, they had been walking for almost three hours, and there were few pedestrians on the road, but they had never seen the shadow of the Heavenly Empire.
"How long do you have to go?" Lin Qi looked at the white world in front of him, feeling a little anxious.
"Ahead!" Xie Wan replied simply, there was no trace of tiredness and anxiety on her fair face, she liked to walk in the snow, especially the snow without strong winds, which was particularly lovely.
Lin Qi didn't ask any more questions, turned her head to look at Xie Wan beside her, she was dressed in white, her expression was as plain as water, her feeling of being like a fairy made Lin Qi's mood also relaxed, what should come will always come, it's useless to be anxious, why not face it with a normal heart and wait!
The power of the Eastern World ranks second in the entire Xianchen Continent, the first is the Central Plains, a vast and mysterious world, where there are many strong and dozens of soul emperors, where it is an indispensable link for soul magicians to find immortals, and the final beginning of some enlightenments was born in the Central Plains.
And the Heavenly Empire is one of the three major powers in the Eastern World, its strength can definitely suppress the heroes, countless genius soul magicians gather in this city, and all kinds of soul art origins come from here, which is definitely fascinating, and it also makes Lin Qi look forward to it for a long time.
The snow showed no sign of abating, and feather-like snowflakes fell all over the shoulders and black hair of the two, making them look like gray-haired old men, as if they had gone through endless years, but the only thing that remained unchanged was the look in their eyes, sharp and persistent.
After about half an hour, the outline of the city wall loomed between heaven and earth, and some white birds hovered above the sky, unaffected by the heavy snow, and the speed was still as fast as the wind, light and vigorous.
"That's the snow eagle, legend has it that where the gods appear, there will be their figures, I saw it once, it's really amazing! In front of it is the Heavenly Empire!" Xie Wan exclaimed, pointing to the few sacred and pure snow eagles in the sky, she liked it very much, when she came to visit the Heavenly Empire five years ago, it happened to be winter, and it was this kind of flying bird that she encountered, and she didn't forget it.
Lin Qi looked up, and sure enough, those snow eagles seemed to be fused with the snowflakes, the white feathers and the pure snowflakes were perfectly integrated, as if there were nothing, very magical, worthy of being a spirit beast bred between heaven and earth.
Soon, the two of them made their way through the chaotic snow and fog to the city wall.
If the large city wall is 100 zhang high, it is very magnificent and thick, and it is carved with dense runes, spreading like spider webs, which are ancient defensive soul runes, which can resist many powerful soul attacks.
Lin Qi and Xie Wan came to the city gate, a huge bronze plaque, very eye-catching, with three big ancient characters engraved on it - Heavenly Empire!
Ten city defenders wearing black armor and holding swords engraved with soul attack runes stood neatly in front of the city gate, giving people a sense of awe and worship from the heart.
"They are all the soul magicians of the Heavenly Empire! don't worry, it's okay!" Xie Wan explained softly, she was afraid that Lin Qi would be worried, after all, the strength of the country that can let the soul magician act as the city defender should not be underestimated, and it will make some heart palpitations.
Lin Qi was quite shocked in his heart, looking at the soul weapons in the hands of those soldiers guarding the city, they exuded the aura of soul power all the time, as if announcing the strength of the Heavenly Empire.
"Stop, who are you!" a city defender with a soul sword in his hand watched Lin Qi and Xie Wan come over and asked sharply.
"We are going to the Heavenly Empire to learn soul arts, hoping to let us pass!" Lin Qi explained with a smile, now he didn't dare to offend these soldiers who defended the city.
"Oh, learn soul arts, then I'll search, and if there is no contraband, I'll let you pass!" said the defender of the city coldly, it was his duty.
"This ......" Lin Qi hesitated a little, he was worried that the dragon egg in the backpack would be discovered, this kind of creature that should not have appeared in the current continent actually appeared alive in the eastern world, and its news could definitely shock the entire Xianchen Continent, at that time, a storm over the dragon egg was inevitable.
"Hmm, why do you still have contraband!?" The city defender frowned, looked Lin Qi up and down suspiciously, pointed to the backpack on his body, and said, "You give me that black backpack, I'll check it!"
Lin Qi hesitated, he instinctively stepped back, this time, it aroused the suspicion of this city defender even more, he seriously suspected that Lin Qi had contraband on his body, and he had to search for it.
"Hmph, you don't look like a good person, tell me, what's hidden in that bag?!" the city defender shouted, and he walked towards Lin Qi step by step with the soul magic sword in his hand.
"It's not contraband, but it's impossible to hand it over to you!" Lin Qi said resolutely, it was impossible for him to let others know about the existence of dragon eggs, even if it was to the death.
"Then I can't help you! bring it to me!" The soldier defending the city shouted violently, the soul sword in his hand was stunned and exuded a silver brilliance, which was very sacred, and he quickly rushed towards Lin Qi, wanting to snatch his backpack.
Xie Wan was very worried, but she was helpless, her feet seemed to be tied to a jack pendant, and she couldn't move, so she could only watch Lin Qi being attacked, and she was indescribably scared.
Lin Qi quickly activated the soul power essence in his body, and there were faint white points of light on the surface of his body, but it was not obvious in the snow mist, it was the unique soul power of their Snow Clan, and it could be used without opening the soul wisdom, which was also the soul power that was born unique in the bloodlines of all races except the Human Race.
The city defenders were very fast, and in the blink of an eye, they came to Lin Qi's approach, reached out and grabbed the backpack on his body, wanting to find out.
"Huh!"
Lin Qi quickly turned sideways and easily dodged, and then, he mobilized the power of the snowflake and wanted to fight back, but his own strength was too weak to cause damage, and the snowflake could not condense the entity, and there was no offensive means, so he could not hurt the soldier defending the city.
"What! actually dodged!" The city defender was a little surprised in his heart, he didn't expect that a young man with an ordinary appearance would be able to open up more attacks from his Soul Heaven Realm, it seemed that this young man still had some strength.
The rest of the long-known guards in front of the gate of the Heavenly Empire were also a little surprised, but they didn't make a move, but chose to watch the play.
That dodge just now, only Lin Qi knew the mystery of this, he didn't have a soul power realm, but with his ability to mobilize wind and snow, and with the help of snow to improve his speed and reflexes, he could dodge the attack so easily.
"I'm here to see what you can do!" The soldiers defending the city were a little unwilling, he didn't make a ruthless move, and the soul magic war knife in his hand was not used, he knew very well that once he used the soul magic battle knife, even if he won the battle, it would be dishonorable, and he could only fight with his bare hands.
Lin Qi was silent, calmly faced, and the soul power of his whole body began to be active, combining with snow to achieve his goal.
"Boom!"
It was another three consecutive attacks, all of which were fist techniques, and they all had some soul power, and the speed was so fast that the surrounding air was rubbed into the slightest sound, but they were all dodged by Lin Qi one by one, and they were still not hurt in the slightest.
"Hey, boy, there are two hits!" The soldier defending the city was not annoyed, he stopped his movements, quietly looked at the young man in front of him, and said: "You haven't opened your soul wisdom, you can actually dodge my attack, and if you continue to fight, my face will really be dull!"
This city guard saw some clues to some extent, and he couldn't feel the soul power aura on Lin Qi's body, so he guessed that Lin Qi didn't open his soul mind.
"Thank you for not killing!" Lin Qi gasped slightly, just a few strokes, and the soul power in his body was consumed very little, if this city defender made a few more moves, he couldn't dodge.
"Haha! Where is it, delay your time, the Celestial Empire welcomes you at any time! Let you go!" the defender of the city roared, and with a wave of his hand, the huge gate of the Celestial Empire was opened.
Subsequently, the soldiers defending the city returned to the team, standing there with the nine people, like monuments, giving people a feeling of **, they represent the military appearance of the Heavenly Empire, and they are on a mission.
"Are you okay!Lin Qi!" Xie Wan quickly ran to Lin Qi's side, the imprisoning soul technique was applied to her feet before, making her unable to move, if a powerful soul magician can easily break the confinement, this kind of imprisoning soul technique is equivalent to nothing.
Lin Qi smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry!
"Is it really okay?!" Xie Wan asked again.
Lin Qi still smiled, "Let's go! There is the Heavenly Empire ahead! The Spirit Immortal Soul Academy is still waiting for us!"
After speaking, the two walked side by side and stepped into the gate of the Heavenly Empire step by step.
......
"Why didn't you use all your strength just now? Can't you even beat a child?"
Shortly after Lin Qi left, a soldier guarding the city asked.
"He reminds me of a man! a peerless powerhouse who once had a glorious era!" explained the defender who had struck before.
"Who?!"
"Heavenly Emperor!"
The group was shocked, but they were all silent, the legendary Heavenly Emperor, that is an immortal realm-level existence.
