Chapter 204: Gubei Town
Gubei Town.
The northernmost town in the outer area of the Gu Immortal Battlefield is at the junction of the outer area and the middle area, and it is necessary to pass through here to enter the middle area, and Gubei can basically be regarded as a sign of the boundary between the two regions.
From the Hanging Skull Pass to Gubei Town, along the way, there are many cities and towns along the way, which is the safest way to enter the Gu Immortal Battlefield.
From there, further north, there are few safe places to stay.
Entering the mid-level area, the celestial phenomena are even more terrifying, the cloud beasts are herds, the strength is strong, and the forbidden secret realm full of holes is difficult to support for a long time, except for a few precarious markets, there are only three towns in the huge mid-level area, built in intact secret realms, far away from each other.
The monks who were not strong enough stopped at Gubei Town, and they didn't dare to break in anymore.
Gubei Town is said to be a town, but limited by the scope of the secret realm, the scale is actually not large, there is only one main street, mainly shops, and there are very few people who really live here.
There are many shops along the street, inns, selling elixir and magic weapons, as well as buying spiritual materials and spiritual evil things.
Those who have the strength to arrive in Gubei Town are basically monks in the foundation building period, and the shops on the streets look quite deserted, and the business is bleak, but in fact they are very profitable.
It is also because of the special location of Gubei Town, the price of the pills sold in the store is extremely expensive, and the price of the inn is comparable to the small cave house in the Hanging Skull Pass.
Fortunately, there is a shadow guard stronghold in Gubei Town, and Qin Sang and the others don't have to pay this unjust money.
At this time, Qin Sang was standing in front of the door of the Shadow Guard stronghold, looking up at the sky.
Gubei Town is built in a piece of red yellow sand, you can clearly see the wind rolling up the sand, covering the sky and the sun, like the end of the day without stopping to impact the prohibition, in the sandstorm, there are also red rays of light swimming, it is the fire of the sky.
The forbidden light fluctuates, and you can feel the horror of the power of the celestial phenomena in the secret realm.
The people living in Gubei Town seem to have long been surprised, and they still do whatever they have to do, and they don't even look up.
Due to the instability of the space of the Gu Immortal Battlefield, the depths are full of spatial cracks, although there are no spatial cracks on the periphery, but they are also affected, not only the high altitude has non-stop wind and lightning, but also sometimes due to spatial fluctuations and celestial phenomena, the more you go to the depths of the Gu Immortal Battlefield, the more frequent the celestial phenomena appear, and the more terrifying the power is.
The shape of the celestial phenomena is unpredictable, there may be strong winds that erode the bones and marrow, the fire may fall from the sky one moment, the next moment it will be goose feathers and heavy snow, frozen for thousands of miles, and even sometimes several celestial phenomena appear at the same time, lightning and thunder, the earth shakes the mountains, ice and fire collide, the scene will be spectacular.
In the celestial phenomena, the cloud beast is more active, and the monk must not only deal with the celestial phenomena with all his might, but also must always be vigilant against the cloud beast. Fortunately, every time a celestial phenomenon appears, there are signs, and the monk can find a safe place to take shelter in advance.
The sky was raging outside, and the popularity of Gubei Town was a little more prosperous than before, and the monks took the opportunity to start trading to replenish what they lacked.
"Qin Daoyou, the guy at the stronghold said that this celestial phenomenon is almost over. Senior Brother Yin ordered everyone to gather at the entrance of the secret realm before, and set off as soon as the celestial phenomena ended. ”
A woman's voice came from behind him, Qin Sang turned his head, and saw that it was a woman in plain clothes, who was Yun Qiongsan, who was traveling with him, so he nodded and said yes.
Looking left and right, but not finding Senior Brother Mu's figure, Qin Sang shook his head helplessly, and followed Yun Qiong Sanren towards the entrance of the secret realm.
This time, the ten shadow guards were together, and there were a total of four foundation building stage monks, and the other six were all above the tenth level of the qi refining stage.
Originally, according to the usual practice, it was enough to dispatch only three monks from the early stage of the foundation building period.
Mining Qianyang quartz, the most important thing is to shield their own fluctuations, in case they are detected by the cloud beast, as long as they can successfully sneak in, the Qianyang quartz has already surfaced to the ground, and the danger of mining is not great, and the Qi refining period cultivators can complete it.
They relied on a disk-shaped cloud vessel issued by the skull, which was urged by the three foundation-building monks, enough to cover a large area, and lasted for a long time, more than enough for mining.
In the event of an accident, you can also narrow the coverage of the cloud and dedicate manpower to deal with the crisis.
Originally, it had already been determined that Mu Yifeng, Qin Sang, and Yun Qiong Sanren were three people, plus seven Qi Refining Period Shadow Guards.
The three of them were all cultivators in the early stage of the foundation building period, Qin Sang made up his mind not to take credit, and let Mu Yifeng be the captain, and that Yunqiongsan person naturally couldn't make waves.
Unexpectedly, before leaving, a person named Yin Xingge suddenly interjected.
Yin Xingge is from the Medicine King Sect, and Yun Qiong Sanren is a disciple of Yanyulou, these two sects are both sects with a long tradition in the Xiaohan Domain, although there is no ancestor in the door, but the Jin Dan Master has several people, and his strength should not be underestimated.
Although the Medicine King Sect is not as good as Shaohua Mountain, Yin Xingge himself is a cultivator in the middle of the foundation building period, ranking the most among the four, and the strength of the immortal cultivation realm is respected, Qin Sang and Mu Yifeng can only obey his orders.
Qin Sang could feel that Mu Yifeng was not happy, but fortunately, this person could understand the overall situation, and he didn't act according to his temperament, but just did things perfunctorily.
He could also guess that Yin Xingge was probably coming for the Crystal of Qianyang.
The Qianyang Crystal is a rare spiritual material that can refine the magic weapon, and the Jindan Venerable Master needs this thing to refine the Extreme Yang Magic Weapon, if they can bring a piece of the Qianyang Crystal back on this trip, everyone's good deeds will be directly multiplied tenfold, and the first person to discover the Qianyang Crystal may also be rewarded by the Jindan Master.
Regardless of whether Yin Xingge was instructed by the Venerable Master Jin Dan in the door, or coveted ten times the good deeds, what he could value must be the Crystal of Qianyang.
The Qianyang Crystal is such a precious thing, naturally it is not possible to encounter it every time it is mined, otherwise it would be the Venerable Master Jindan himself who led the team.
It's just that that vein has not been born in that vein for decades, and according to the laws of the past, it is a little more likely now, but it is only a little.
Follow the street all the way out, all the way downhill.
Just because the terrain in the secret realm is a broken mountain, and the entrance is a small river at the foot of the mountain.
After a while, the two of them walked to the end of the street, and saw a jade belt appear in front of them, and there was a wooden wharf on the riverside, and around the wharf there were several wooden boats that looked shabby, without cables, but motionless in the flowing water, which were actually magic weapons for entering and exiting the secret realm.
At this time, more than a dozen people had gathered on the dock, waiting for the secret realm to open and leave.
Yin Xingge and the other seven people stood together, and the other six shadow guards were all in the Qi refining period, among which there were three major sect disciples, but they didn't dare to neglect Yin Xingge's order in the slightest, and came over early to wait.
"Senior Sister Yunqiong, ...... Qin Daoyou"
Yin Xingge nodded to them and said hello, and when he saw that Mu Yifeng had not arrived, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't say anything.
