Chapter 881: Arctic Palace
On a vast plain, there is a huge city more than 30 zhang high.
The giant city is made of some kind of crystal clear hedron with countless runes faintly visible.
Above the city gate, there are three big black characters engraved "Arctic City", which are extremely conspicuous.
There was a rectangular wooden table at the gate of the city, and behind it sat a young man in white and a woman in red, judging from the clothes on the two of them, they were obviously disciples of the Arctic Palace.
Both of them were covered with a soft white curtain of light, keeping the cold out.
"Senior Brother Zhou, it seems that not many people have passed the first hurdle in this apprenticeship ceremony? The girl in the red dress frowned.
"What's the solution! Not long ago, the sect held a big competition, the performance of the new disciples was too poor, Elder Li felt that the qualifications of the new beginner disciples were too poor, so he raised the entry requirements, I am afraid that many low-level monks will be frozen to death on the road. The young man in white sighed and said.
The girl in the red dress nodded, and was about to say something, when she suddenly sighed softly and looked into the distance.
The young man in white also seemed to notice something, and looked up and looked ahead.
I saw two figures appear in the distance, and the red light mask on their bodies could be faintly seen.
It was Shi Yue and Lan Tingting.
"Is this Arctic City? Shi Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered to himself.
Lan Tingting saw Arctic City, and her pale face showed a look of joy.
"Senior, this is Arctic City, it's finally here. Lan Tingting pointed to Arctic City and said.
"Well, it's time for us to break up, too. Shi Yue nodded and quickened his pace.
Lan Tingting looked at Shi Yue's back, and there was a different color flashing in her beautiful eyes.
This senior is humble, and she didn't act recklessly just because her cultivation was higher than her, and if it weren't for the help of this senior, she wouldn't have been able to come to Arctic City by herself.
"Hey, there's a monk who is protecting her. The young man in white said softly.
"This is not against the regulations, during the apprenticeship ceremony, this sect will open some prohibitions, even if it is a foundation building monk, it is good to be able to reach the Arctic City alone, and it can take a Qi refining period monk to go so far, it seems that this Taoist friend is not an ordinary foundation building monk. The girl in the red dress had an interested look on her face.
Soon, Shi Yue walked in front of the two of them, he arched his hand at the two of them, and asked sincerely: "Two fellow Daoists, I wonder if you can borrow the teleportation array now?"
The young man in white was a little surprised, and said: "Are you going to teleport overseas to hunt demon beasts?" As long as you pay the spirit stone, which island you want to teleport to is your freedom, the teleportation array is in the Arctic Temple, and you can go into the city to find someone to ask." ”
The Arctic Palace is located on top of a huge glacier that is next to the boundless sea, and is rich in monster resources.
At the beginning, the Arctic Palace occupied the monster resources in the sea and did not allow outsiders to hunt them, but the speed of the monster beasts was too fast, and the number of killed was far less than the number of births, and over time, high-level monsters appeared.
High-level demon beasts led a large number of low-level demon beasts to attack the Arctic Palace, almost causing the Arctic Palace to be wiped out, but fortunately, the Arctic Palace has a deep heritage, and used the treasure of the town palace, Zhenhai Bell, to kill the high-level demon beasts, and since then, the Arctic Palace no longer occupies the demon beast resources in the sea, but encourages foreign monks to hunt demon beasts overseas.
In this way, the number of demon beasts has been curbed to a certain extent, and it will not be too much, and the Arctic Palace has established a number of fang markets to provide convenience for foreign monks to make profits.
Therefore, when Shi Yue proposed to borrow the teleportation array, the young man in white did not feel strange, and enthusiastically pointed out the location of the teleportation array to Shi Yue.
Shi Yue thanked him and strode into Arctic City.
Unlike other markets, the buildings in Arctic City are made of some kind of white hedron that looks like huge blocks of ice.
Under the guidance of passers-by, Shi Yue came to a white palace more than ten zhang high, and there was a plaque engraved with the three big characters of "North Pole Palace" hanging at the door.
The main hall of the North Pole Hall is very wide, and there are more than ten teleportation arrays in the hall, and next to each teleportation array there is a stone tablet with the name of the teleportation island written on it.
Shi Yue's gaze swept away, and his gaze fell on the stone tablet engraved with "Golden Crab Island".
Next to each teleportation array, there is a disciple of the Arctic Palace guarding it, and the spirit stones are collected before being released.
"This fellow Daoist, how many spirit stones do you need to teleport to Golden Crab Island?" Shi Yue asked.
"Golden Crab Island is a bit remote, two hundred spirit stones for one person, five people can teleport together, or you can send a thousand spirit stones yourself. ”
"I'll just teleport over myself. Without the slightest hesitation, Shi Yue happily paid a thousand spirit stones and stood on top of the teleportation array.
The disciple guarding the formation struck the teleportation array with a magic trick, and a dazzling white pillar of light rose into the sky, covering Shi Yue.
Shi Yue only felt a flower in front of him, and when he came back to his senses, he found himself in a large hall.
The layout of the main hall is similar to that of the North Pole Hall, there are more than ten teleportation arrays in the hall, the difference is that there are not many monks in the hall, most of them are foundation building monks, teleporting to different islands.
The streets are simple, and the buildings are all stone buildings, which look a little shabby.
There weren't many monks on the streets, most of them were in groups, and there were very few lone rangers.
Shi Yue walked along the street, and it wasn't long before he stopped in front of a grocery store.
The shopkeeper was an old man in a yellow robe in his early fifties, sitting lazily behind the counter, without the slightest intention of soliciting customers.
Shi Yue frowned, and walked in, he wanted to see if there were any nearby maps for sale here, after all, people who are not familiar with the place are not familiar, and it would be much better if there was a map.
There were miscellaneous things such as jade slips and demon beast materials on the shelves, Shi Yue glanced at the shelves, and asked the yellow-robed old man, "Shopkeeper, are there any charts nearby?"
"Yes, a hundred spirit stones for a fine chart, and a rough fifty spirit stones. ”
"A hundred spirit stones are so expensive?" Shi Yue raised his eyebrows, his expression a little displeased.
A hundred spirit stones wasn't a lot of money, but he didn't like to be taken for a fool.
"You get what you pay for, I don't dare to deceive my predecessors, I don't believe that my predecessors ask in other stores, it's all at this price. ”
Shi Yue's face softened, and he said, "Get me a fine chart." ”
The old man in the yellow robe answered, took out a blue jade slip from the shelf, and handed it to Shi Yue.
Shi Yue took the jade slip, put it on his eyebrows, nodded with satisfaction, paid the spirit stone, and turned to leave.
Shi Yue walked around the street a few times, bought some charts and classics about the nearby sea area, found a place to live, and stayed.
He wants to figure out the situation in this sea, and it is not too late to move.
