Chapter 347: Into the Forest
Chapter 347: Into the Forest
In the Hongmeng realms, the ancient teleportation circle is the only way to travel between different realms, except for the huge and vast Hongmeng main realm, which has given birth to most races, whenever people go to different worlds through the ancient teleportation circle to explore and explore, there is no doubt that the first step starts from the ancient teleportation circle.
It is precisely because of this that the place where each of the ancient teleportation circles of the other world is located is almost the first foothold of people, except for some geographical environments that are too treacherous, around the ancient and mysterious magic circle will always form a lively stronghold, and then depending on the situation of this realm gradually develops, the environment is difficult and dangerous, and the place where the danger is full of danger is probably the camp of more than one person, and the climate is suitable for the rich realm of products, it is very likely to gradually gather popularity and then develop into a thriving city in the long years.
Here in the Alder Realm, next to the ancient teleportation circle that connects the Hongmeng realms, there is such a small city called "Tianqing".
It's a strange name, because the climate here is different from other realms, and it is hot and humid all year round, and there are few sunny days that are not seen throughout the year. Perhaps the forerunners who came to this realm in the early years had enough of the rain here, so they chose such a hopeful name.
Shen Shi wiped a handful of the rain that fell on his head, walked forward in the hazy drizzle, and began to look at the city he had come to for the first time. The first impression of the city is that all the houses here look relatively low, except for the gloomy sky and drizzle. Along the way, Shen Shi hardly saw buildings with more than two floors, and the materials used to build the houses were also different from most places in the main realm of Hongmeng, like the ancient capital of a giant city like Tianhongcheng, most of the buildings were built with stone or mud, and the houses here seemed to be all built of wood.
In the distance, there is a circle of tall castle-like objects that can be seen faintly, and it seems that the giant trees that have been cut down have been driven into the ground one by one, forming a barrier to protect the castle.
After walking around Tianqing City for a while, Shen Shi soon found that there were a large number of Terran monks coming and going in this city, after all, the Alder Realm has always been a rich realm, attracting many people to come here, but in terms of the scale of the city, it is much smaller than he originally expected, and even there are not too many shops buying and selling spiritual materials on the street, but some taverns and inns can be found everywhere.
Shen Shi was a little strange at first, but after walking for a while, he quickly thought of the key, this Tianqing City is too close to Tianhong City, but there is a demand for spiritual material trading, isn't Tianhong City ten thousand times better than here?
Thinking of this, Shen Shi didn't bother much about this, there were not many pedestrians on the street, but the taverns on the side of the road were overcrowded. Although for most Terran cultivators, the cultivated flesh could already completely ignore this wind and rain, it seems that all people still subconsciously hate standing in the wind and rain.
Shen Shi didn't go into those street taverns to hide from the rain, because as far as he knew, it might be difficult for you to wait for the rain to clear up, so he decided to go out of the city as soon as possible to find the mysterious rain ruins.
As he gradually walked into the row of walls made of giant trees, he suddenly felt a light in front of him, and in the dark sky in the distance, a dazzling lightning suddenly flashed from the dark clouds, and suddenly shone in the sky, slashing towards the world below.
A dull rumble of thunder followed, and the lightning flashed for a moment before vanishing, except that the dazzling light still seemed to linger in the eye. As for the place where the lightning struck, maybe it was too far away so there was no movement here in Tianqing City, Shen Shi glanced in that direction, frowned slightly, and then walked out of the gate made of giant trees.

A strong but fresh smell of grass and trees, accompanied by the falling rain, blew on Shen Shi's face, which lifted his spirits. As far as he could see, the scenery outside Tianqing City instantly caught his eye.
A small but clear stream, with a loud splash of water, meandered under a small hill dozens of zhang away from Tianqing City, and the first thing that came into view was an open meadow, within a radius of about 100 zhang, you could see a large number of tree stumps, some of which were even very large, and it seemed that two or three people could not hold them.
These should be a clearing cut down by the people who came to the Alder Realm in previous years, and after the vision is wide, it can effectively defend against the attacks of powerful monsters in the dense rainforest, and most of the trees cut down are also directly used to build cities and houses, which can be regarded as local materials.
Shen Shi took a cursory look around, and in the misty drizzle, there were five or six roads emitting from the gate of Tianqing City, extending from different directions to farther away, and finally disappeared into those extremely lush forests. At the same time, it seemed that there were some figures walking up and down these roads, but in the drizzle, everyone seemed to be a little depressed and silent, and no sound came.
Shen Shi identified the direction, then picked a road that led due west and was the narrowest of all the roads, and walked towards it. He didn't choose to directly control the Snow Falling Sword and fly in the sky, because before coming to the Alder Realm, he already knew from that piece of paper that similar to the situation in the Extreme North Snow Field, the monks who explored in the Alder Realm rarely directly controlled the magic weapon to fly through the sky, because it rained all year round in this realm, and it rained endlessly, and there were often thunderbolts and lightning splits.
The human sword flying in the air is equivalent to erecting the biggest target for God to split, under the power of heaven and earth, the power of the most masculine thunder is still not easy for anyone to try, including the great real people of the Yuan Dan realm. Including in that sunny city, all the buildings are built so small, in fact, it is also because of this that the high-rise buildings built in the early years have all been split into ashes by lightning and lightning.
The climate of the alder realm is humid, hot and rainy, which is extremely suitable for the growth of all kinds of plants and trees, even if it is the wooden stakes left on the grass after being cut down, Shen Shi also saw a lot of green shoots still drawn out at the roots of the trees when he passed by, showing great vigor and vitality.
The farther away from the city, the more humid the air became, and the road beneath your feet became more and more muddy and difficult to walk.
As far as the eye can see, there is a vibrant green everywhere, the tall trees stretch out the huge canopy, which seems to be somewhat obscured, and the low places are also intertwined with various grass and shrubs, as if every plant is desperately growing, greedily grabbing the space here.
There was a wind blowing, and the rainforest in front of Shen Shi rustled, as if there was a pair of eyes staring at him in the depths of the dense forest.
The road under his feet was still faintly visible, stretching zigzag into this pristine and lush rainforest, Shen Shi glanced back, only to see that Tianqing City seemed to suddenly become distant in that rain, and on this path near him, there didn't seem to be any figures walking here.
His brows furrowed slightly, but he did not hesitate, turned back and walked into this primeval rainforest, and behind him, a cold wind blew, between heaven and earth, the rain seemed to be a little heavier, and the rain fell suddenly, covering the city in the distance, becoming more and more hazy.
