Chapter 735: Drunken Life and Dream Death
Su Aotian almost suspected that this guy was talking nonsense to make them happy, but this guy not only spoke with a natural look on his face, blurting out without thinking, but also his spirit was stable and did not fluctuate abnormally, which was enough to prove that he was not laughing and lying, but stating the facts that he thought were very normal.
Although Su Aotian already felt that Ciyun Prefecture and Kuimen Prefecture were like two completely different worlds, he couldn't imagine that this immortal cultivator of Baiyun City was a deacon of a partner, but he was also a genuine immortal cultivator, and he was so unenterprising, he felt that being a buddy was also extremely happy, so why bother to bother and bother to carry out boring cultivation, anyway, there would be no future in refining. And from his words, it was revealed that it was not he who thought so, but the mainstream idea of this White Cloud City!
But in any case, Su Aotian felt that such a thing was a bit ridiculous, the spirit beasts were cultivating hard, but the human race was not enterprising, things should be reversed, shouldn't the human race be diligent, with the ultimate goal of achieving the supreme avenue?
In the next few days, Su Aotian and Lian Qiongyu stayed in Baiyun City, watching the people here coldly, and found that as the guy said, the people here, at least the immortal cultivators who were wandering around the streets, were really very leisurely. What they love the most is those restaurants, tea shops, clubs and venues, all day long, looking for fun. The magic weapons sold in the shop are not of excellent grade, but they have taken great pains to decorate them, and they have not hesitated to inlay some exquisite ornaments. These ornaments not only have no bonus effect on the item itself, but some of them simply destroy the original structure of the item and reduce the level it should be. And the more beautifully decorated the item, the better it will sell for the better price. The purpose of the cultivators buying these things was not to use them, but to show them off.
The elixirs displayed in the pharmacy are not those high-quality products that improve cultivation and cure injuries, but are mostly things that beautify and nourish the body, which also proves from one aspect that the immortal cultivators here care more about the quality of life than the cultivation of cultivation, and are unwilling to wronged themselves.
But Su Aotian also found that although there were a lot of aura above the Holy Rank in Baiyun City, they almost never showed their heads outside. I don't know if they are demonstrating Yan, or if they are burying their heads in cultivation. Su Aotian would rather believe that it was the latter, after all, the Holy Rank was already an unattainable realm, and if the Saint Rank Immortal cultivators were so unenterprising, then the future of the human race would really be worried.
Moreover, he also found that except for some people who held positions such as entertaining people, who were not able to cultivate to the Mortal Immortal Realm, the rest of the people who were below the Mortal Immortal Realm were all concentrated in buildings similar to the Academy, and there were special people to teach them to cultivate, and they were not allowed to go out without permission. On the outside, these immortal cultivators who are below the mortal immortal realm are generally older, and they are basically middle-aged and prime-aged in terms of appearance, and none of them are young people or children. After a little inquiry, he knew that those who did not have the cultivation of the Mortal Immortal Realm in Baiyun City were not allowed to move freely, and these people were all young, let alone children. And those immortal cultivators of the Tian Yuan Realm and the Earth Yuan Realm who showed up really had no future, and although they were already a lot older, they still couldn't break through, so they could only release them and do some superficial work.
Seeing such a scene, Su Aotian also realized after thinking about it. The reason why the immortal cultivators in Baiyun City are so leisurely should be created by the environment here. Here, there is no threat of survival, there is no bright future, this life is like this, no desire, no desire, drunk life and dream of death, and become an immortal, just leave it to those proud sons of heaven to complete, I am just an ordinary immortal cultivator, just live my life happily.
Compared to the human race in Kuimen Prefecture, living in dire straits, Su Aotian couldn't help but feel sad. However, after thinking about it, although the Terrans in Kuimen Prefecture are in a difficult situation, and many people's lives can only be said to be precarious, they are busy and full every day, and their days are not in vain, as long as they do not die, they are constantly making progress every day; How much difference does it make between such a person living or dying?
Su Aotian estimated that if it weren't for the fact that there were a large number of Saint-rank immortal cultivators here, Baiyun City would have been razed to the ground by the spirit beasts of Xuyu Mountain. But why a Saint-level immortal cultivator wouldn't stay here is also quite strange. Perhaps they are all frustrated people who have suffered serious setbacks on the way to cultivation and have lost their ambitions, and they are willing to nest here and feel the joy of being a strong person from the envious eyes of the immortal cultivators in the Immortal Realm.
But these things have nothing to do with me, the restaurant guy is right, he is just an outsider. Since the environment here is far from what you want, it's better to leave. Su Aotian didn't plan to stay here for a long time, but wanted to inquire about some news, and during this time, he asked about the Nether Ascendant, but the immortal cultivators of White Cloud City obviously focused all on their own lives, and there was really no news worth paying attention to about these things.
Disappointed, Su Aotian decided to leave the city immediately, so less than ten days after entering Baiyun City, he and Lian Qiongyu left this place and continued their journey.
Along the way, they passed through several cities one after another, but they didn't get any useful news, about the matter of the Nether Ascendant, most of the immortal cultivators in Ciyun Prefecture said that they only knew that there was such a thing, but basically they had never come into contact with such a person. It wasn't until in a huge and magnificent city called Qingyun City that the two of them got an exact statement, the reason why there are few information and traces of Nether Ascendants in Ciyun Prefecture is because in the entire Ciyun Prefecture, there is no Ascension Pool at all, that is to say, Nether Ascenders will hardly appear in Ciyun Prefecture, and the two of them can appear here, not to say that they are unique, but it is also extremely rare.
The immortal cultivators here also told them that if they wanted to get more information, they could only go to the Bright Mansion. But places like the Bright Mansion are not for everyone. Although there is no explicit stipulation on what kind of cultivation is allowed to appear in the Guangming Mansion, even if they are saints, they may not be able to gain a firm foothold there, and those who are sub-saints and semi-saints will never think that cultivators like Su Aotian and Lian Qiongyu who are in the fairy realm are not qualified to go to the Guangming Mansion at all!
As the center of the eastern part of the spirit world, in addition to the human race, there are many higher races in the spirit world, and the power of the spirit race also has a foothold there. Immortal cultivators at the level of the Immortal Realm, in the eyes of these races, are no different from a martial artist who can't cultivate, even if they are killed, the power of the human race does not care, so they will not rush to turn their faces with those high-level figures of other races for the sake of such an insignificant compatriot.
In their minds, the cultivation that surpasses the level of a saint is the backbone of their respective races, and talents are rare, and such a force must not be easily lost, which is a major matter related to the survival of the entire clan. Saints, there is a chance to break through to a higher level, and it is also worth cultivating and caring, below the saints, don't come to the Guangming Mansion to show your face, lie dormant in a small place first, and then develop in the Guangming Mansion after concentrating on cultivation. If you are arrogant and have to come to the Bright Mansion to show the leakage, then if you are unlucky and fall halfway, don't complain. After all, the resources of the Guangming Mansion are also limited, so many powerful people of various races compete with each other here, it is already very fierce, and those who are not cultivated enough also want to come and get a piece of the pie, who can blame them if they die?
This made Su Aotian very difficult. Of course, he really wanted to go to Guangming Mansion to find out the news, but Luo Yingsleeve had not heard from him for so many years, saying that he was not worried that it would definitely be a lie. However, he had to think about the safety of himself and Lian Qiongyu, although it was very urgent to find Luo Yingsleeve, Luo Wentian and others as soon as possible, but all this must be achieved under the premise that he was alive, if there were no people, nothing could be talked about!
He didn't hesitate too much to dispel the idea of going to the Guangming Mansion now, if he didn't cultivate enough, going there would be like sending him to death. The current method is to speed up the cultivation of cultivation, there is no need to wait for the cultivation to reach the level of a saint, as long as he breaks through the fairy realm and becomes a sub-saint, he has the confidence to go to the Guangming Mansion to find out.
However, cultivation and improvement cannot be achieved overnight. After so many years, the environment of the spirit world has basically been adapted, and the kind of rapid ascension that expired when I first came here is absolutely impossible now, and the deeper the cultivation, the more difficult it is to break through, and the longer it takes. At present, although he has reached the Immortal Realm, if he wants to break through to the Holy Rank, as far as he goes, it is still far away, and it is impossible to predict how many years it will take.
At present, it seems that the only advantage of Ciyun Prefecture is that the environment is good, basically there is no threat from spirit beasts, and you can find a place to cultivate with peace of mind. This method is actually not suitable for herself, but there is no problem for practicing Qiongyu, after all, her cultivation method has always been basically decent. Su Aotian planned to make a compromise, neither to live in peace in the city and cultivate comfortably, nor to be completely in the wilderness and let the hard environment sharpen himself, but to compromise and choose a place that was neither superior nor particularly difficult, and strive to improve the cultivation of both himself and Lian Qiongyu relatively quickly.
