Chapter 125: Heavenly Serpent Fortress
For the next month. Demon Fall didn't intend to hunt a demon beast for Tianyou to obtain a second soul skill. He also urged Tianyou not to learn the next skill of the inheritance ring.
The reason is that Tianyou has enough skills now.
First Soul Skills - Devouring, Demon Breaking Ring Kill, Arhat Finger, Explosive Step, Enhanced Explosive Step, Dance of Annihilation, Law of Silence, Black and White Enchantment. These skills have been enough for him to reminisce for a long time, and martial arts are not much, but refinement. Tianyou will naturally not go against the will of his second master.
Since he entered the thirty-eighth level, Demon Fall's training on him has not increased, but rather decreased. Although I still have to carry the 500-pound weight every day.
However, the Demon Fall allowed Tianyou to use soul power and spiritual power to assist himself, and with the support of soul power and spiritual power, although it cannot be said that the weight ruler was as light as a feather in Tianyou's hands. But the pressure is greatly reduced, even if you carry a heavy ruler and run hundreds of miles quickly, there is no problem.
Now they advance ten hours a day, with two hours to rest. For soul masters and martial artists, it is never a big deal to stay awake for more than ten days, and two hours of rest is enough for them. And now the Demon Fall has not let him have actual combat training with Tiangang.
After so many days of traveling, everyone also came to the destination of this trip - the Celestial Serpent Fortress.
What caught everyone's eye was a majestic front of the city, which was 70 meters high and 100 meters deep, and even hundreds of meters wide.
According to Tiangang, this Heavenly Snake City, as the second fortress of the Imperial Snake Empire, can be regarded as one of the most prosperous areas of the empire. The Imperial Snake Empire is not like the Four Elephants Empire in the North or the Myriad Illusion Empire in the East, only strength is exalted here!
On this day, the Serpent Fortress stood in the way of the other two empires and the fortresses of the Black Domain. It is said that there are millions of defenders here, and there is also a thousand-person regiment composed of 2,000 soul masters!
Its head has reached the peak of the Soul King, and with such a group of guards stationed, not to mention the Black Domain, even the other two empires may not be able to attack it.
And such a fortress can only rank third among the towns of the Imperial Snake Empire.
The most prosperous area is the location of the Poison Sect - the Imperial Snake Fortress. The name of the empire can be used as the name of the city, and the scale can be imagined.
According to Tiangang, the prosperity of the Imperial Snake Fortress even exceeds that of the Imperial Snake Imperial Capital. And the soldiers and horses gathered there are also seventy percent of the entire empire, and there is even a group of 50,000 soul master legions. And it is also the place where the Imperial Snake Empire and the Beast Domain meet.
......
Walking into Heavenly Snake City, Tianyou couldn't help but be surprised. It is also an imperial fortress, but the scale of this fortress is many times grander than the Tianyun fortress of the Four Elephant Empire. At first glance, this fortress is likely to contain enough people to accommodate millions of people. According to Tianyou's estimates, the total number of people and defenders here is only about two million. Soldiers accounted for half of them.
It is conceivable that if it really entered the war period, how many soldiers could this fortress hold, how much food and siege equipment could be stored......
And this also secretly reveals the delicate relationship between the three empires.
If the three empires were really as harmonious as they seemed, how could the Imperial Serpent spend so much manpower and material resources to create such a giant fortress? With this fortress, whether it is to attack and occupy the territory or to defend the homeland, it is almost impossible to have a problem with backup and supply......
Walking on the official road of Heavenly Snake City, Xiao Tianyou glanced at the large buildings around him from time to time. Today's Tianyou is not like it was then, and it will not be too out of shape because of the grandeur of these buildings.
On the contrary, it was Xue Tian, who was held in Tianyou's arms, and the wind spirit who followed Tianyou, looking around. It's dizzying.
If Murong Xue was present, she would definitely find out. This person is a tiger, just like the scene when Tianyou first entered Tianliu City, a typical hillbilly entering the city......
The entire official road is paved with bluestone slabs, and its width is large enough to accommodate more than a dozen large carriages in parallel. On both sides of the street, there are countless hotels, clothing stores, jewelry stores, and even shops selling weapons and armor. It can be said that only you can't think of it, and you can't find it without it.
What surprised Tianyou the most was that as soon as he entered the city, there were already dozens of soul masters he saw, and the highest one of them had even reached level thirty-five.
Although I had seen many soul masters in Tianyun City and even Tianliu City Tianyou at the beginning, compared to this Heavenly Snake City, it was really a small thing. This Heavenly Snake City not only has the number and level of soul masters generally higher than that of Tianyun City.
And here, the soul master doesn't have that feeling of being on top. On the contrary, it is extremely low-key. Walking on the street, they didn't deliberately show their identity as soul masters. Unlike Tianyun City, all the soul masters are above the top and bully.
"The number of soul masters in our Imperial Snake Empire ranks second among the three major empires, and it is slightly inferior to the Four Elephant Empire. But the overall quality is much higher than that of the Four Elephant Empire. During Shadow Kill's reign as Emperor. In order to rectify the soul masters and warriors in the empire, it took a lot of effort to form a harmony between the commoners of the empire and the soul masters, and it was not like in other places, most civilians were afraid of soul masters. Although there are some pretentious existences, they are generally much better than the so-called soul masters and martial artists of the Four Elephant Empire, and the civilians are like grass mustard. Demonfall explained to Tianyou.
There was a hint of pride in the words, as if all this was not done by Shadow Kill. It's yourself......
Tianyou smiled and nodded, "In the past, I also learned about the layout of the continent in books. At that time, the book said that a large number of poison soul masters on the continent would gather in the Imperial Snake Empire, and I thought that this should be a place where dragons and snakes were mixed. I didn't expect this place to be so peaceful and prosperous......"
"What's wrong with the poison system? Good and evil in this world are relative. Isn't it true that if you use it rightly, if you use it evilly, if you use it, you will be evil? Like the Heavenly Dao Academy, it has always pretended to be the way of heaven. But what they are doing is really in accordance with the way of heaven? They are just a bunch of ruffians. Although I was born in the Empire of Illusions, in my heart the Imperial Serpent is my hometown. Tiangang said with some sarcasm.
After all, their Martial Sect originally belonged to the Imperial Snake Empire, but they were later sent to the Ten Thousand Illusion Empire. Tiangang is not an exaggeration to say this.
Tianyou also smiled and nodded, and sighed: "If our family is not in the Four Elephants Empire, but here. I don't think I'm going to get to where I am now......"
Hearing what Tianyou said, the others were nothing. Demon Fall's body stiffened slightly, and he looked at Tianyou, "Tianyou, you can't blame your grandfather for what happened at the beginning. As the saying goes, love is deep, hate is deep. Your grandfather expects too much from your mother. That's why I can't accept that your mother chose to be with a human. ”
"Maybe you don't know, our Imperial Snake and even the Poison Sect seem to be in charge of me and Shadow Kill, but in fact, the Emperor and the core of the entire empire are your grandfather. Your mother is his only daughter, that's why she ......."
"In fact, over the years, your grandfather has always regretted that he kicked your parents out of the house in a fit of rage. He is the person I admire the most in my life, not only because he is my master, but also because he has done so much for humanity and for the Empire. ”
"If it weren't for your grandfather, let Shadow Kill put the army on the border of the Beast Domain. The demon beasts of the Beast Domain are afraid that they have already invaded the three major empires...... When we first met you, do you know why we didn't bring you back?"
At this point, Demon Fall simply stopped his steps and looked at Tianyou. "Your grandfather said he owes your family too much. So I wanted you to live a peaceful life, but I didn't expect this ......"
"Second Master, don't worry. I don't blame my grandfather. Although I have never met him, from the current prosperity and peace of the Imperial Snake Empire, I know that my grandfather is a great man. I never felt that my grandfather was wrong, and of course, I didn't think my mother or father was wrong. ”
"Grandpa, he is for the whole empire, in order to take care of the overall situation. Give up the small family and take care of everyone. My mother and father pursued their own happiness, with different starting points, but who was right and who was wrong? And if my grandfather really insisted on not letting my father leave with my mother at that time, how could I leave safely with the strength of my father and mother? I think my grandfather may have already recognized my parents. ”
Tianyou smiled slightly, he knew that the Demon Fall had misunderstood what he meant. Tianyou never blamed his grandfather. What's more, now that his parents and Tengzi are dead, his grandfather is already his only relative. Tianyou still remembers that his mother's last words before she died were to let yourself stop hating your grandfather.
And how could Tianyou disobey his mother's last words?
Demon Fall also nodded in relief, and patted Tianyou's shoulder dotingly, "Tianyou, do you know." Your mother is the most beautiful and kind woman in the world. I've never met your father, and I was out on business when that happened. When I came back, I learned that your father had abducted our little princess. At that time, I even had the urge to rush to the Four Elephants Empire and kill your father with one palm. ”
"But now I'm sure that Xiao Ling's choice back then was not wrong. My son is so sensible, how can Lao Tzu go? You're right, no one is wrong, it's just a different position. ”
This is the first time I've heard the Demon Fall joking with him, and there is a lot of love in his words. Although there is no blood connection, it is also an inseparable family relationship......
The crowd walked through the official road for a quarter of an hour and came to a hotel. The hotel is not very busy, it is only two storeys high.
Entering the hotel, Demonfall opened three very ordinary rooms for everyone, belonging to the type of one silver coin a day. Tiangang and Tianyou have one, and Demon Fall and Wind Spirit each have one.
I'm afraid that no one would have thought that a Soul Emperor powerhouse would stay in such a hotel......
Tianyou looked at Tiangang and said, "Senior brother really doesn't call the second master?"
As soon as a few of them booked a room, Tianyou and Feng Ling were taken downstairs by Tiangang to find a table and sit down.
Tiangang shook his head, "No need, Uncle Demon Fall never eats with us. He used to do the same when he was training me. ”
