Jueying Island and Jueying Castle were originally two places.

This is also something that Lu Ran only learned when he arrived in Jueying City.

Jueying Island is the southernmost fairy island of Tai'er, the base camp of the Huanjiao, the place where the sect is sanctified and preached, and is located on the clouds in the sea in the south of the turbid sea.

Juying City is a city located on the edge of the continent north of Juying Island, bordering the kingdom of Xiangman, separated by the Saturnalia Mountains and the Qiman River.

Although Jueying City is nominally a city, its scale and population are so large that the southern countries have long regarded it as the "Ninth Kingdom of the South of the Earthquake".

Although it is also called "Jueying", but it does not completely belong to the immortal religion, with the true meaning of "all the heavens are good" respected by the Huanjiao, the Huanjiao even gave up the power of the city, the city is governed by twelve "immortals" who are not subordinate to the Huanjiao, and the "immortals" are divided into "twelve immortal bureaus", "twelve immortal bureaus" are subdivided into various people's livelihood organs, according to the official statistics, as of the end of last year, the "twelve immortal bureaus" have a total of 2,142,853 public servants, in the city, On average, there is one employee of the "Immortal Bureau" for every 16 residents.

Of course, the population figures here do not include those who come from all over Tai'er.

Compared with such a huge management organization, the organization of the Huanjiao in Jueying City is much smaller, but it is just a small building, and tens of thousands of Taoist priests work and practice in it, which is exactly the Wanhuan Building that Xu Fang and Insight Tianjun once mentioned.

The scale of tens of thousands of people is not even comparable to a few of the grand temples of the Eight Kingdoms guarded by the Huanjiao Sect, but the Wanhuan Tower has its own extraordinary, that is, the height, the extraordinary height, the ninety-nine-story tallest building in the universe that has no one before and after it, worthy of the name, at least Lu Ran has never seen a building that can stand side by side in this world, that is, there is such a miracle in the other world 3022.

Wanhuan real estate is located in a corner of the city, with this height, like a "master" overlooking all living beings, still declares the influence of the environmental religion in this place, in fact, the Taoist priests of the environmental religion go out early and return late, in the city activities, they do not preach, just complete the commission, task or exchange of information, leaving countless immortal traces and stories, has been an inexhaustible daily conversation among the residents, "the environmental religion is everywhere, Wanhuanlou never extinguishes the lights" This slogan is even more unknown to everyone, the lights of Wanhuanlou are not extinguished, It has long been an indispensable scenery at night, engraved into the memories of the residents of Juying City for generations.

However, in addition to the "Immortals" and "Wanhuanlou", there is a third hidden underground force in Jueying City, their identities are complex, their sources are unclear, and many of them are not even visible, but they are the main force that really controls the city, they generally live in the basement dug out privately by the aborigines, or the temporary wooden houses built at random in the horse shed, flower house, and card room. The "Outer Dao Gate" that specializes in accommodating Outer Dao Immortals, Evil Warlocks, and Villain Boys, as well as many Fenghua teenagers who come here with dreams to try their luck.

Of course, demons and monsters are also indispensable, some people have counted, saying that among the population of about 30 million people in Jueying City, there are at least 300,000 demons mixed in, some of these demons are actually harmless, and some are just here to join in the fun, but the vast majority of demons have the need to hurt people or vices, they are the biggest hidden dangers in this city, but whether it is the "immortals" or the Huanjiao Sect are secretive about their existence, and even deliberately connived, Only on some informal occasions can you see Taoist priests holding swords and talismans magic weapons and demons in the city, however, this kind of thing usually happens at night, before the next morning, the "Twelve Immortals" in the public security bureau will clean up the scene, drag away the corpses, and then give the witnesses some forgetful pills, and then cover up the matter hastily.

Under the sun, there were all traces of washed blood.

At this point, a large number of "immortal" public servants, the elite of the Huanjiao of Wanhuanlou, all kinds of foreign immortal gangs and demons who don't know what intentions they have, are the most representative existences of Jueying City, they are either partners or mortal enemies, in some aspects they are incompatible, and some directions are interdependent, these intricate relationships and the terrain of Jueying City are quite a bit of a mutual reflection.

The shape of the city is very similar to a four-pointed star, each of the four major forces occupies a corner, they are clearly separated from each other but difficult to distinguish and isolate in some places, especially in the center of the city, where there is the largest second-hand market ever, it is said that you can buy all the bizarre and strange things you can think of except for the innate treasures of the two religions, and of course, you can also break yourself into one hundred and forty-three pieces and sell them to one hundred and forty-four guests......

"Why did you break it down into one hundred and forty-three pieces and sell it to one hundred and forty-four guests?"

At this time, Lu Ran was in front of a stall in this second-hand market and asked Beiquan, who brought him here.

Beiquan smiled without saying a word, just looked at a customer in the distance who was sticking his head out and shrinking his head.

On closer inspection, the man turned out to be two faces, one in front and one behind, with facial features, and four ears on both sides facing each other, and he was bargaining with two vendors at the same time.

"Oh my God." Lu Ran stuck out his tongue.

Immediately, a man with bulging eyes and blue skin came to him and asked, "Is this tongue for sale?" ”

"Don't sell, don't sell!" Lu Ran was so frightened that he quickly covered his mouth.

Beiquan was beside him, smiling hehehe, he was buying a statue of an immortal, saying that he admired the previous generation of Tianjun the most, and the boss said that he would give him a matching base, and at this time they were waiting for the boss to find it from the warehouse.

Beiquan took out a pocket watch from his bosom and looked at it: "I don't know how the Shinan and their shopping were, it's time to go back." ”

"It's too big here, they should still be in the lower fairy area, you have to walk around carefully, it's not ten days and a half months, but you can't get out, we come here, if you want to squeeze out, it's difficult!" Lu Ran looked at the three outer floors here, and saw only a lot of people on the outer three floors, and then looked at the full shopping cart of the son of the immortal cultivator in front of him, and couldn't help frowning.

"You are waiting for the boss here, watching things, I will go to look for them, and then come back to look for you together." Beiquan looked accustomed to it, and saw him take out a talisman from his bosom and stick it to his throat, and then it visibly became much thinner to the naked eye, and soon it was as thin as a piece of paper, and it was also very soft.

Lu Ran looked at the paper swaying, and inserted it when he saw the crack, interspersed all the way out from the sea of people.
