Chapter 7 The City of Mountains and Rivers
Yulingxi took Yubao all the way, and soon, this big city came into view.
Yu Bao has been living in the village since he was a child, and the farthest place away from him is Qinghe Town at the entrance of the mountain, which is the closest town to the mountain village, but it is not big, there are few monks, and only one Qi refining period monk is stationed.
The city in front of you is magnificent, and the night is quietly shrouded in the streets, and all kinds of lanterns on the streets illuminate the city.
It is very lively, because there is a formation arranged by the Shanhe Sect, the aura here is strong, and the physical fitness of the residents has generally improved, and they live in this city.
"Wow, master, is this Shanhe City, so big and prosperous. Yu Bao was amazed by the mountain and river city in front of him, he had never seen such a city.
Yu Lingxi had long been accustomed to it, and said: "It's nothing, in the Nine Heavens, there are more magnificent cities, and we are at most a big place." The real great sect, the city built is a blessed land, and it is said that the babies born there are all cultivated. You, you just read less, and you sigh at this, and you lose your face as a teacher. ”
Although Yu Bao has always been very interested in the world of cultivating immortals, his living environment since he was a child did not allow him to accept so much knowledge about the world of cultivating immortals.
"Master, where are we going now? Yu Bao listened to Yu Lingxi's words, and also put away his curiosity, and asked honestly where to go next.
Yu Lingxi had already thought about it and replied: "Let's rest in this mountain and river city for the night today, it's been so long, I'll go back to the sect tomorrow morning and pick you up after completing the formalities." With that, he took Yubao into the inn in front of him, Feidaoju.
"Little two, open room. Yu Lingxi threw out a token, which was the token of the true disciple of the Shanhe Sect, and shouted into the store.
"Okay, here you go. Soon the shopkeeper came out to receive him, saw the token, and said respectfully.
Yu Bao looked curiously at the furnishings in the inn, the precious wooden furniture he didn't recognize, and the screen with cranes painted on it, a staircase, leading to the second floor, where many rooms were distributed.
Yu Lingxi took Yu Bao and Xiao Er up to the second floor and took them to a room with a sign at the door that said Xuan Ding.
Xiao Er opened the door and said respectfully: "The immortal family will live here first, please tell me if you have something." As he spoke, he left without waiting for Yu Lingxi's orders.
Yu Lingxi didn't care, found a chair, and sat down.
Yu Bao stood at the door in a daze, at a loss, and finally said, "Master, where am I sleeping?" "That's right, there is only one bed in this room.
Yu Lingxi poured a glass of water and said, "Do you need to say it?" Of course it's on the ground, but the teacher is a woman, do you still want to sleep with the master?"
Yu Bao was anxious and said, "Master, can't you open another room?" Obviously, Yu Bao felt that although he was a master and apprentice, there was a difference between men and women, and it was not good to stay in the same room.
Yu Lingxi didn't care, after drinking tea, he went directly to the bed, and said: "For the teacher to be poor, the token of the true disciple can only open this one room, you can go and open another room if you have money, anyway, there is no money for the teacher." ”
Yu Bao looked at the master's scoundrel appearance, and he couldn't help it, he couldn't say that the master, so he could only blush, find a chair and sit down.
Yu Lingxi looked at his apprentice's face flushed by his whole face, smiled, and said, "Xiaobao, do you know what kind of place this is." ”
Yu Bao shook his head, of course he didn't know, he knew very little about the world outside the mountain, and he didn't know where Yulingxi had brought him.
Yu Lingxi continued: "In the Shenzhou Continent, there are four major realms, the mortal realm, that is, where we are now; the immortal realm, the ultimate goal of us immortal cultivators, it is said that there are immortals living in it, and there are monks who have ascended to the mortal realm over the years; the demon realm, where those demonic people finally ascended; and the demon realm, where all the mountains and seas and strange beasts come from. ”
Speaking of this, I paused for a moment, these are all common knowledge in the immortal cultivation world, but Yu Bao has not been exposed to it before, so I specifically said it to Yu Bao.
Yu Bao was also listening carefully, he knew that the master was telling him these most common sense things, so that he could truly integrate into the world of cultivating immortals.
Yu Lingxi continued: "Although the three outside the mortal realm are recorded, but we don't have a deep understanding of there, the mortal realm we are in, there are nine heavens, which are the closest to these three realms, the nine heavens are divided into the upper three days, the middle three days and the lower three days, respectively, they are in charge of different tribulations, and the heavenly tribulations of the Ascension Tribulation are also in charge of them. And outside of this Nine Heavens, there is also the Ten Thousand Sects Alliance, all the sect forces in the mortal realm are named here, the president of the mortal realm is seventy percent of the resources, and the Ten Thousand Sects ranking war is held every thousand years, and our Shanhe Sect has ranked eight hundred and ninety-one in the recent first battle, which can be regarded as a medium and upper force. "Yu Lingxi is still a little proud when he talks about this, this ranking can be regarded as a big force in this mortal realm where there are many sects.
Yu Bao looked at the master's deterioration and asked, "How many sects are there in the whole Shenzhou?" ”
Yu Lingxi replied directly: "There are probably more than 1,200 sects that are really counted. ”
"Ah, although Xiaobao doesn't read much, but master, didn't you say that it was the Ten Thousand Sects Alliance, how could it be such a small sect. Moreover, our Mountain and River Sect is only ranked at the bottom of the eight hundred, almost nine hundred, how can it be regarded as a big force?" Yu Bao was surprised, he didn't expect that this Ten Thousand Sect Alliance was different from what he knew.
Yu Lingxi also realized that she seemed to have exposed something terrible, and said: "Oh, why do you care so much, the Ten Thousand Sects Alliance doesn't sound like a little face, how can there be so many requirements." "Yu Lingxi deliberately avoided the matter of nearly nine hundred rankings.
The only news that Yu Bao learned in Dashan Village was the closest mountain and river sect to Dashan, a ranking and general direction, and the rest were unknown.
Yu Lingxi hurriedly diverted the topic and continued: "In this Ten Thousand Sects Alliance, there is another force, a force that controls more than ninety percent of the wealth of the mortal realm, this is Feidaoju, and the inn where we are now is the property of Feidaoju. The Flying Dao Residence has cooperated with various sects, and even the legendary Nine Heavens have a relationship with it. Yu Lingxi quickly talked about this inn.
Yu Bao also understood, but he didn't ask much about this, and wanted to continue to ask about the ranking of the Mountain and River Sect.
"Master, you said that this ranking of 900 ......"
"Okay, Xiaobao, it's time to sleep, you've slept on the flying sword for so long, even if you have cultivation in your body, you can't bear it, sleep. Take off the quilt on the bed and put it on the mat, so you don't need to cover it at night. Before Yu Bao finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yu Lingxi and fell asleep directly.
Yubao had no choice but to take the quilt on the bed, put it on the ground, and lie down.
This is the first sleep that Yu Bao has slept in the past half a month, in the process of hurrying, Yu Bao has no way to sleep, he can only use the mental method he got before to meditate and improve his consciousness. Yu Lingxi has been systematically identified, and this mental method does not have a route of exercise, but it can make people enter meditation and improve their divine consciousness.
Yu Bao's physical cultivation has reached the double level of blood refining, and he can only consume enough food once for a long time, so he relied on the Bigu Dan of Yulingxi all the way, and he was not very hungry.
Yu Bao soon fell asleep and had a dream.
In the dream, he saw the master, and the thoughts in the rosary, the sky was blood-red, and he was the center of this blood-red.
......
The early morning sun illuminated this magnificent city, and Yulingxi had already woken up.
Yu Lingxi looked at the sleeping Yubao, knowing that Yubao hadn't had a good rest these days, and he had to go back to the sect as soon as possible, so that he could take Yubao back to the sect.
Yu Lingxi picked up Yu Bao from the ground and put him on the bed, Yu Bao slept deeply, because he was next to the master, he was completely defenseless and slept very deeply, so the master didn't feel it when he picked him up.
Yu Lingxi covered Yubao with a quilt, left two hundred taels of silver on the table, a silver ticket, and a note, which read: Xiaobao, the master will go back to the sect to report first, and the true disciples in the foundation building period can accept disciples, and the master will come to pick you up when he finishes his work. Shanhe Zhenchuan can always open this room for free, you live here, leave you 1,200 taels, and spend as much as you like, there are many things in this Shanhe City that the mountains don't have, you play for a few days first, at most three days, and the master will come to pick you up.
In addition, if you have something, go to the city lord's mansion and report my name, the little princess there is my junior nephew, your little senior sister, you can ask her for help.
After Yu Lingxi left a note, he went downstairs to the inn, said a few words to Xiao Er, and then left.
"Xiao Er, I'll go out for a few days, my apprentice is here, the room is always open, the token is left here, you will give it to him when he goes out. ”
Yu Lingxi stepped on the flying sword and left, and the Shanhe Sect was in the Linghe Mountain Range outside Shanhe City, where it was the site of the Shanhe Sect.
This Linghe Mountain Range is said to have been selected by the Shanhe River people, that is, the ancestors of the Shanhe River, and the Shanhe River people are said to be the powerful monks who crossed the last catastrophe.
At that time, the Shanhe Sect had more than a dozen ancestors who crossed the catastrophe, ranking in the top three in the ten thousand sects of that year, because they dominated the isolation of the boundary wall in the war of destroying the Buddha, more than ten ancestors of the catastrophe blood sacrifice array, and cooperated with the immortal formation to finally drive the Buddha out of the mortal world and fall into the void.
In the 1,000 years after the Great War of Exterminating Buddha, the various sects recited the blood sacrifice of the Shanhe Sect to the immortal array, but did not take the opportunity to destroy the Shanhe Sect, and slowly encroached, resulting in the fact that the Shanhe Sect had not been born as an ancestor, and in the end, it was eaten away to only one city, which is now the Shanhe Sect.
Yu Lingxi knows the history of the Shanhe Sect very well, but the decline of the Shanhe Sect is now inseparable from the exercises of the Shanhe Sect.
Originally, the exercises handed down by the ancestors of the mountains and rivers were only in the stage of transformation into gods, and so many ancestors before the mountains and rivers sect were constantly improved by the disciples of the first generation of the mountains and rivers sect, because the first generation of disciples took the wrong path in the process of perfection, and there were very few who became tribulations, and when they taught the second generation of disciples, they passed down the exercises they had perfected, and after thousands of years, they accumulated more than ten ancestors of the tribulation.
All the exercises of the Shanhe Sect during the tribulation period are on these ancestors, and after the seventh ancestor appears, no one wants to practice imperfect exercises anymore, and the exercises of the tribulation cannot be engraved except for the guidance during cultivation, so as soon as the ancestor dies, these exercises will be lost.
The Shanhe Sect was reluctant to go the same way, and only thought about finding the exercises left by the ancestor back then, which led to the difficulty of the Shanhe Sect to produce a tribulation ancestor for thousands of years, and even the monks of the Transformation Period were only a few people.
Yulingxi's master Song Mingke has always hoped that the Shanhe Sect can improve on its own again, but he missed the best thousand years, and now it is difficult for a genius to grow up, and he was secretly suppressed by the Ten Thousand Sects Alliance back then, and it was difficult to reach the Transformation God, and it was almost useless when he arrived.
Yu Lingxi felt that there was no way to guard in the sect, and after getting the system, he left the sect and went out to cultivate, hoping to walk out of a great avenue by himself.
After going out for many years, this is the first time she has returned.
