Chapter 176: The City of Trials
The laws of the earth system on the shore of the Black Sea did not match the earth spirit body that Mu Sheng comprehended, so he couldn't continue to comprehend, so he had to follow the map given by the Light Feather Sightseeing Group with Xiao Mu and head towards the land of death.
The desolate world was once lifeless, and it was only in the last thousands of years that it was slowly developed, forming a unique scene in the universe. The big forces can't look down on it, and the small forces are incapable, and they are controlled by several medium-sized forces.
These medium-sized forces controlling the desolate world, in addition to satisfying their own internal cultivation needs, have also done a series of commercial developments with a lot of business acumen, and they have been quite effective so far.
In fact, this is also forced by the form, although several medium-sized forces have joined forces to control the desolate world, but the tigers can't stand the wolves. It is not easy to underestimate the strength of other forces when they join forces, not to mention that many resources can be reused, and opening up to the outside world can not only dissolve hostility, but also increase income, so why not?
It is precisely because of these reasons that the Flood Desolate World is a typical representative of the commercial operation in the Xiuzhen Realm, and there are naturally many places similar to the Flood Desolate World. Where there are people, there must be society, and where there is society, there must be economic activities, this is an eternal truth, even in the cultivation realm.
The desolate world that has been eroded by the dead air is full of desolation and harsh environment, and because of this, Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu devote all their energy to hurrying. Xiao Mu has practiced the Buddha's Golden Body Technique, and Mu Sheng has also practiced the Body Alchemy Technique, both of them are extremely strong in their bodies, and the speed of rushing is naturally not slow.
Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu can avoid the territory occupied by other forces on the way, and find a place that is rarely visited, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble or expense. For the commercialized Xiuzhen Planet, the Flood World, the price of entering these so-called "attractions" is still relatively high. And they may also encounter unnecessary trouble, in case some monks with other intentions want to rob a fortune, it will inevitably be a fight.
After several days of non-stop travel, Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu finally arrived at the destination of this trip, the City of Trials.
The Flood Desolation World was a level of existence with the Immortal Realm before it was destroyed, it can be said that it was brilliant for a while, and there were countless Great Gate Sects in the Flood Desolate World at that time, and even after the erosion of dead energy, there were always some Great Gate Sects left behind some valuable things, such as this City of Trials.
The most important place in the City of Trials is the Land of Trials, which was built by a certain sect in the Flood Desolate World to select the disciples of the lineage. After thousands of years of exploration, the exercises and magic weapons inside have long been taken away by their predecessors, leaving a place of trials without rewards.
Although there are no rewards in the place of trials, the trial mechanism inside is still intact, which is quite helpful for improving the strength of the monks, so it is opened to the outside world by the forces that occupy it, charging high fees, and it has also become a cash cow for the forces.
The exterior of the City of Trials is made entirely of the white bones of unknown creatures, and it looks eerie on the outside, but when you walk inside, there is a flood of people and all kinds of cries and cries, and you can't see a trace of the gloom of the place of death, full of vitality.
Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu, who had just entered the City of Trials, were drowned out by the noise of the city. The city inside this place of the dead was completely more lively than Mu Sheng expected, and it was crowded with people.
"Are you two newcomers to the City of Trials? I can be your guide, one high-grade spirit stone a day," a teenage boy walked over and said. Behind the boy, there were three more children who were annoyed and slow.
As the saying goes, there are rules for the industry, and there are rules for this tour guide industry, which is on a first-come, first-served basis, and the boy found out Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu first, so only after Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu didn't want to hire this boy. The children behind have the opportunity to continue to sell themselves, which is also a rule slowly formed by the development of the industry, although the children behind are annoyed that they are late, and they do not intend to exceed the rules, but wait slowly in the back.
Mu Sheng asked with interest, "How do you know that we are new to the city?" If your answer satisfies me, I will give you an extra high grade spirit stone every day, okay?"
The little boy's eyes seemed to be popping up like stars, and he quickly said: "This master is a master among the masters at a glance, with a shining demeanor and wonderful roots, and he will definitely fly in the future." Therefore, as soon as the two of you entered this city of trials, I was illuminated by your brilliance, and naturally I knew that the two guest officers were newcomers, because there had never been such a graceful and brilliant genius as you before. ”
Mu Sheng scolded with a smile: "You bear child, your sycophant kung fu is first-class, to put it bluntly, come me with those false ones." The little boy's words caused Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu to laugh again and again.
The little boy touched his head and continued: "Master, you are really wise, and you have seen through this little trick of mine at once. That's right, after I saw the two of you enter the city, facing the crowded city of trials, my first expression was surprise, obviously there is such a lively city in the land of the dead more than the two of you expected. The second point is that people will be a little out of place at the beginning when they enter an unfamiliar environment, but after they are familiar with it, they can integrate into the environment. Those who have been to the City of Trials will not be out of step with the environment here. ”
Mu Sheng nodded and said: "Boy, your observation is really good, I think you are very intelligent, outstanding, talented, and you will definitely be famous in the future, hahaha......"
After saying that, Mu Sheng threw two high-grade spirit stones to the little boy opposite, and the little boy took the spirit stone, quickly put it into the storage bag and said: "Thank you, master, you two can call me a little slipper, 6666's slip." ”
This title caused Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu to look at each other and smile, this little slipper is not only smart, his mouth is also diligent, he speaks very humorously, this journey is relaxed and happy, relieving the troubles of the journey, and the value of the two high-grade spirit stone flowers.
Xiao Xiao introduced to Mu Sheng and Xiao Mu, "The City of Trials is roughly divided into three functional areas. The first functional area is the Trials Place, which is a must-visit for every guest who comes to the City of Trials. The second functional area is where we are now, the living service area, which provides clothing, food, housing and various entertainment facilities for all guests. The third functional area is the auction area, which will regularly auction some magic weapons, exercises and treasures, although the price is relatively high, but there are also some specialties of the desolate world, if you are objectively interested, you can go to the auction house to visit. ”
Mu Sheng asked, "When will the auction start?"
The little slipper replied: "The time of the auction is uncertain, under normal circumstances, it must be held at least once a month, if you are objectively interested, you can give me a high-grade spirit stone, and when the auction starts, I will inform you." ”
