Volume 2 The Turbulent Darkness Rises and the Turmoil Unsettled Chapter 121 Enter the city
"What Your Excellency said is that Cloud City has also suffered dozens of foreign invasions in the past hundred years, but this great protective array has never been breached, it is really a city that is exciting. Wuchen twisted the short beard of his chin, nodded and smiled, and sighed softly in his words.
Xuan Ming didn't seem to hear the deep meaning of Wuchen's words, and only asked the question in his heart: "What about the Supreme Elder of the First Sect that day, it is said that no one can tell his age clearly, only that since he fought with someone decades ago, after losing the battle, he was unable to retreat in the Tianyi Sect, and after decades later, his life and death have become legends, how could he suddenly appear to discuss the Tao this time." ”
Wuchen's smile deepened: "Tianyi Sect is the mountain gate of Tianyi Sect, the first sect of Zhengyang Dao, Tianyi Sect is like a Dinghai Divine Needle in Beigu Country, although it never interferes in the affairs of the court, but several generations of country lords dare not have a contemptuous heart for it. As for the Great Elder, it is the high god of Tianyi Sect, such a god, of course, will not appear because of some specious rumors to set the record straight, this immortal ascension conference, speaking of which is a discussion, is actually to select Tianzong Wizards among the world's immortal cultivators to enter the Tianyi Sect, so as to lay the foundation for the next hundred years of prosperity of the sect. ”
Xuan Ming smiled thoughtfully: "In this way, the young master of the first sect will definitely appear at the Immortal Ascension Conference that day." ”
Wuchen nodded and smiled: "Naturally, I fell in love with your brothers and sisters, so I simply told the two of you a secret." He approached Xuan Ming mysteriously, lowered his voice and said with a smile: "It is said that the young master's proposal this time was provoked by the sect master's wife. ”
Xuan Ming was slightly stunned, and before he could speak, the girl smiled and said: "Mrs. Sect Master, isn't that the young master's mother, his mother is proposing marriage to his son, how can it be called provoking." ”
Wuchen's smile became more and more mysterious: "No, no, this sect master's wife, is the suzerain's successor, not the young master's mother, it is said that the original wife of the suzerain was still angry to death by this later wife, you say, can she tolerate this young master, can she sit and watch him ascend to the position of the suzerain, she couldn't in the past, and now she has also given birth to a son, I'm afraid it can't be even more." ”
The girl has no stepmother at home, so she can't empathize with this, and feels that this matter sounds quite boring, so she pursed her lips and said unhappily: "Let's not talk about this, it's really boring." She looked up at Cloud City: "Let's talk about how to enter the city, this place is still so far from the city gate, and you are not allowed to fly, is it really necessary to walk up step by step." She looked around and pouted, "There has to be a way to go, except for the clouds around it, there is nowhere to put your feet." ”
The dustless eyes wandered on the girl's face for a while, and the anger between the eyebrows was wrapped in a haze, which was a little thick, but there was still a thick smile on her face: "Girl, don't worry, there is indeed a road to Cloud City here on weekdays, this is not an immortal ascension conference, there are too many immortal cultivators from all sides, the city lord has closed the road, and when the time comes, someone will come to pick us up." He coughed lightly, and then laughed in a low voice: "Also, I heard that the young master of the Tianyi Sect left the sect three days ago without saying goodbye because of his objections to the relatives, and hid in the city in the clouds. ”
The girl was interested, and grinned: "Yes, this young master is quite interesting, but if it were me, I wouldn't want to." She poked Xuan Ming, her clean and clear apricot eyes were full of sly laugh lines: "Brother, if you choose a daughter-in-law with such fanfare, are you willing?" ”
Xuan Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, the innate grace in the peach blossom eyes, and a fresh silkworm under the eyes was full of charm, and the smile made people's hearts ripple: "The daughter-in-law is beautiful, it doesn't matter how she picked it out." ”
As he was talking, an earth-shattering loud noise suddenly came from the high void, causing everyone to look up and look at each other, only to see the sea of clouds that was originally connected and covering the sky and the sun, and under the vibration of the loud noise, it rolled and slowly pushed to both sides, revealing the tall city gate in the middle.
The city gate of the city in the clouds is really tall and breathtaking, the city gate towers hundreds of zhang high, facing the sky, as if to poke a hole in the sky, and the two closed vermilion city gates are ordinary, but the nine hundred and eighty-one door nails on the top are not unusual at all, these door nails are all into a huge purple lotus shape, every time the lotus rotates a circle, it emits a colorful light, eighty-one colorful lights melt into one place, spread the entire city gate, it is really like the shadow wall of the landlord's house, enough to be generous and tacky enough.
Xuan Ming and the girl looked at each other in a daze, and their hearts were shocked, such a vast and vulgar spectacle, except for a holy place for cultivating immortals like Cloud City, it would never be seen again in the side.
"Don't underestimate those lotus door nails, those door nails are made of the unique dream purple stone in the clouds, this kind of stone is very rare, any magic weapon attack is ineffective against it, it can only be destroyed with distance, and each of this stone can release a different illusion, ninety-nine eighty-one, that is, ninety-nine eighty-one illusions, tsk. Wuchen shuddered fiercely, as if he was a little afraid of those door nails, and said with a smile at the right time: "It feels terrible when you think about it, with these eighty-one Dream Purple Lazuli Stones and the Great Array of City Protection, this Cloud City can be described as impregnable." ”
Xuan Ming was silent, only staring at the city gate, his eyes flashing thoughtfully.
On the contrary, it is the heart of a girl and a child, looking at the cloud city that shows a corner of her true face, she is ecstatic, dancing and talking to Wuchen endlessly, in the face of such a beautiful meal, Wuchen is also very willing to say a few more words to her.
As the city gate appeared, the sound of salute music came from far away in the sky, and the city gate creaked and slowly opened.
Out of the two teams of girls in Chinese costumes carrying lotus palace lanterns, every step they take barefoot, the lotus palace lamps in their hands exude a warm brilliance, dispersing the sea of clouds on both sides, the girl's bare feet, showing a road paved with 10,000 years of jade, the road is gradually widening, there are hundreds of zhang wide, and it has been winding to the feet of everyone.
Everyone looked at this vision, and couldn't help but be in an uproar, what a treasure is the 10,000-year-old Xuanyu, how many immortal cultivators scattered thousands of gold just to ask for a refining magic weapon, but this cloud city is so big, and actually took the 10,000-year-old Xuanyu to pave the ground, it is really a tyrannical thing, and it confirms the nature of the landlord's old wealth nouveau riche.
Someone squatted on the ground, while secretly scolding the city lord for being wasteful, while picking and knocking with his hand, in a vain attempt to pick off a piece, but it was in vain to pick out a piece of it, this 10,000-year-old Xuanyu statue was originally grown on the ground, and the person used all his strength to sacrifice all kinds of spells and magic weapons to no avail. He couldn't help kicking angrily, only to feel the pain in his feet, he sat on the ground and scolded: "What the hell is this place, ouch, my feet." ”
Everyone laughed more than once, but when they saw his miserable situation, they also gave up the idea of wanting to fish in troubled waters, after all, if they can use a treasure like Wannian Xuanyu to pave the ground, they naturally have a way to prevent people from stealing it.
At this time, the sound of ritual music slowly stopped, the girls in Chinese clothes stood on both sides, and an old man with white hair floated out of the city gate, he was dressed in a white robe and fluttered in the wind, like a fairy, even the wrinkles on his face were sandwiched with fairy energy, standing still in front of everyone, and said with a kind smile: "You immortal masters have been waiting for a long time, the old decay is the ascending of the city lord of this cloud city, and I am here to welcome all immortal masters." ”
Someone raised his voice impatiently: "The city lord doesn't have to be polite, my legs are numb and my waist is sore, hurry up and let me wait to enter the city, find an inn to live in, and I will wait for the brothers to go out and have fun." ”
Shengden still smiled and said: "It's the old decay who has neglected, this cloud city is the only place in the North Valley Country that has a ban on the sky, in order to save you from the fatigue of the boats and cars, the old decay has arranged a guide to take things." With a wave of his sleeves, countless lotus platforms leaped out of the sea of clouds on the side, but the size of his feet, and fell in front of everyone, he smiled and made a request to everyone.
A bold person tried to stand on the lotus platform, just stood firm, the lotus platform held the person to shoot into the distance, only a few breaths of effort, then stopped at the gate of the city in the clouds, the man then relieved himself, walked down the lotus platform, and laughed wildly: "Lao Tzu took a step first, beauty, I'm here." And he went into the gate.
Seeing that the man was no different, everyone rushed to the lotus platform, and the light jumped to the city gate like lightning, and the originally empty city gate was lively like a market in an instant.
Xuan Ming and the girl glanced at each other, nodded slightly, and actually stood hand in hand on a lotus platform, although it was a little crowded, but the victory was that both of them were slender and slender, and the two of them together were just a dustless weight, and the lotus platform was naturally no different, holding the two of them and flying towards the city gate.
And Wuchen looked at the figures of the two, squinted his eyes slightly, twisted his thick and slightly chubby body, and also got on the lotus platform, following the two from a distance.
The place where everyone was standing was empty in an instant, Sheng Deng turned around with a smile, looked at the people who had entered Cloud City, his face suddenly darkened, waved his hand left and right, and flew back to the city.
————————————
From the city in the clouds to the north, thousands of miles away, you can see a high mountain that goes straight into the sky, the top of the high mountain next to it is mostly the top of the mountain hidden in the clouds and mist, but this mountain is different, even the foot of the mountain is covered with clouds and mist, and the top of the mountain is nowhere to be seen.
The name of this mountain is called Taibai, worthy of the name is very white, rashly entering here, it is enough to make people feel that they have an eye disease, looking everywhere is covered with a layer of white mist, and it is not clear to see. This is where the mountain gate of Tianyi Sect is located, the pavilions and pavilions on the mountain are numerous, and the rare and exotic beasts are everywhere, and it is alive to get rid of the blessed land cave that the world yearns for.
