Chapter 528: Tianhai City
As soon as he looked at it for a while, Huang Ming smiled, there are only two rules in Tianhai City.
The first is that all people on the island have to pay a living fee every year, 200,000 spirit stones per year for immortal cultivation, 10,000 spirit stones for martial cultivation, and 100 spirit stones for mortals, and once they are in arrears, they will be expelled from the city immediately.
The second one is simpler, Tianhai City is not allowed to fight privately, if there is a grudge to settle in the ring, otherwise it will be killed.
These two rules are straightforward, simple and rude, which means that if you want to live in Tianhai City, you must have money and strength, otherwise you will face the danger of being expelled from the city or being killed by personality at any time.
Of course, these two rules should only be the bottom line of Tianhai City, those regular purchases have to be paid, and although the life of killing is not written in the token, there must be, otherwise Tianhai City will not be messed up.
Since the merchant ships still had to complete the transaction with the Xiuxian and Wuxiu merchants set up in the city by Ruyimen, they stayed for a day, and only left this small harbor town early the next morning to start their return.
The monks who were going to Tianhai City this time, in addition to Huang Ming, there were more than twenty people, but they were all only Dan stage monks, and most of them were only in the early and middle stages, and there were very few in the later stage.
Huang Ming didn't understand at first, he had to spend a million spirit stones to go to Tianhai City, where did these early and mid-stage Jindan minor monks get such spirit stones?
Later, when I thought about it, the matter of the beast tide was related to the life and death of all human races, and some sects would definitely send their blood relatives or some potential disciples to a relatively safe place in advance in order to leave a way out.
It's just that this kind of thing can't be done too obviously, so you can only send people away in this way in this way.
In other words, the monks who want to take refuge in Tianhai City are no longer only extremely vicious and greedy for life and afraid of death, but more of them are cronies and disciples secretly arranged by various sects.
Thinking of this, Huang Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, no way, this is human nature, and they can't be blamed.
After leaving the port for more than an hour, the merchant ship began to accelerate, and when it heard a "buzz", there was an extra layer of protective light around the merchant ship, and then it sailed towards the depths of the endless sea like an arrow from the string.
Huang Ming walked out of the cabin, this is a magic weapon-level sea ship, you have to feel it.
What's more, he has never been on a sea boat before, at most he took his sister to the free Green Lake Park to row a boat, which is why he didn't get a girl in the end.
Want to ride a horse just after rowing a boat? It's not that era anymore.
But when he came out, Huang Ming was stunned, this is a sea ship merchant ship, it is completely a spaceship, and outside the light mask of the merchant ship is a burst of golden light flying backwards, and he can't see the sea at all.
"Isn't it, could it be that this merchant ship is faster than a flying magic weapon?"
Huang Ming was suddenly a little curious, the best flying magic weapon that Xiao Hua bought for 60,000 spirit stones back then was at most five times the speed of sound.
And this is a forbidden world, flying magic weapons can't be used, you can only use your natal magic weapon to fly at low altitude and slow speed, how can there be a faster means of transportation than flying magic weapons?
But if it wasn't for a flying magic weapon, how could there be bursts of golden light flying backwards outside the light mask?
Huang Ming couldn't help it, and walked up to the black man who led him to see the demon cultivator before, he had to ask.
"Fellow Daoist, when will we be able to get to Tianhai City? What's going on with all this golden light outside the ship? ”
"Oh, I've seen my predecessors, it takes half a month to get to Tianhai City, and these golden lights are the protective magic circle on the ship"
"Protective circle? Didn't you say that the merchant ships of Tianhai City would not be attacked by the demon cultivators in the sea? Why do you need a protective circle? Huang Ming continued to be curious.
"The magic circle is not used to prevent the demon beasts in the sea, but to prevent the safe route to Tianhai City from leaking"
"Prevent the safe route to Tianhai City from being leaked?" , Huang Ming was stunned for a moment, but he didn't understand.
"Don't hide it from your predecessors, although most of the city lords and elders of Tianhai City are from the Endless Sea, the demon beasts are also divided into races, and once they strayed into the territory of some demon beasts, our merchant ships will also be attacked."
"These routes we trade with the Terran Continent are all carefully selected, and they are all routes with fewer demon beasts or lower levels, this is a secret, naturally we can't let the people on the island know"
"So that's the case", Huang Ming understood now.
It turns out that the merchant ship is not moving at the speed of light, and the protective light shield on the ship is not used to prevent demon beasts, but to prevent the leakage of the route, and it is the people on the ship that are guarded, and these demon cultivators are really cautious enough.
Since he couldn't see the sea, he had to go back, so Huang Ming returned to the cabin.
Almost half a month later, the speed of the merchant ship suddenly slowed down, and the protective light shield slowly disappeared, Huang Ming and the others finally came to the legendary Tianhai Island, and they also saw the legendary "Tianhai City" from a distance. ”
This Tianhai Island is very much like a basin formed after a volcanic eruption, but this basin is much larger than ordinary craters, with a radius of nearly 1,000 kilometers, and is surrounded by cascading craters on all sides.
One of the hills is a little lower, which is also where the port of Tianhai City is located, and from here you can see one of the walls of Tianhai City and some relatively tall buildings in the city.
After getting off the boat, the man in charge of receiving the black man stood by the boat and pointed to the city gate in the distance.
"Everyone, the front is Tianhai City, you all have identity tokens, and you can move freely after entering the city, but I want to remind you that the fee for you to go to the island is only one year, and you have to pay it again in the second year."
"Also, this city is only responsible for your safety in the city, because there is no protective circle outside the city, not only a large number of monks who were driven out of the city because they can't get the spirit stone, but also many demon beasts who do not obey discipline, and they are only responsible for life and death."
After the black man finished speaking, he ignored the crowd, turned around and went back to the cabin.
The crowd did not say anything, but disembarked and left the dock, and went to the city gate, alone or in groups.
The city gate is unattended, but there is a large access control, the door hole is a golden light, everyone according to the black person in advance to enter the city, take out the identity token and put it on the golden light, the golden light disappeared.
Huang Ming did the same, took out the token and put it on the golden light, and then entered the city.
Huang Ming didn't rush to find a place to live after entering the city, he casually stopped a passing monk and asked this person if there was an immortal cultivation business in the city.
This is the habit he developed when he went from the Baiyi Realm to the Great Xia Realm, every time he went to a city, he had to be a fallen master first.
Under the question, there are not only immortal cultivation businesses in the city, but also a large block with a relatively high concentration of various businesses.
Because there are no businesses of the major immortal cultivation sects of the human race, there are people from all major sects.
These people stayed in Tianhai City in order to earn spirit stones, and those who knew how to refine pills opened pill shops, those who knew how to refine weapons opened weapon shops, armor shops, as well as charm shops, inscription shops, formation halls, etc., everything.
Even if you don't know anything, in order to survive here, you have also opened some shops that specialize in selling immortal cultivation materials.
There are those who specialize in selling spirit herbs and elixirs, those that specialize in selling spirit wood and spirit mines, and there are even shops that specialize in selling the bones of demon beasts and brute beasts.
I don't know how this kind of shop can be opened, after all, the city lord of Tianhai City is a demon cultivator.
Anyway, it's more lively than the main city of the main schools, and the only problem is that the shops here are all self-employed, and the quality of the items is uneven, and sometimes they can be deceived.
