The area of the Three Counties is actually a staggering peninsula, and the mysterious Yunling Mountains lie between the Three Counties and the northern counties, which makes it extremely difficult for the two places to communicate with each other, and the Zhao court has no control over it.

The insurmountable danger of mortals is extremely easy for cultivators, but the Yunling Mountain Range is not such an ordinary place. The Yunling Mountain Range is the territory of demon beasts, and there are many high-level demon beasts at the Yuan Infant and Jin Dan levels.

In addition, some naturally formed disasters between heaven and earth occur from time to time in the Yunling Mountain Range, such as space storms and poisonous fog, etc., although the Yunling Mountain Range is rich in resources, but the people who rashly step into it are all nine deaths, and over time, the cultivators have also listed this as a forbidden place for life.

The Three Counties were already a very large area for ordinary mortals, but for some high-level cultivators, this place was a bit narrower, and some necessary resources could not be obtained here. For the Zhao Guoxiu True Realm, the three counties also have their own unique attraction.

Under these circumstances, the monks of the two places began to look for some safer paths in the Yunling Mountains to serve as a passage between the two places. After hundreds of years of hard work and the lives of a considerable number of cultivators, the Zhao State Cultivation Realm finally found a relatively safe and remote path.

Of course, cultivators don't really build a real path, and after finding this passage, the "Cloud Boat" came into being.

The so-called "cloud boat" is a giant flying magic weapon, and it is said that each cloud boat has reached the level of the best magic weapon, with its strong defense ability and flight speed is enough to get rid of the harassment of demon beasts below the golden pill stage.

The "port" where the cloud boat docked was near the cloud city in Qishan County, and Tang Mian came here not far from the map according to the map.

Irito Cloud City is nominally a mortal city, but there are some small markets established by cultivators in the city, from which you can buy tickets to the north.

In order not to affect the lives of mortals, the Fang City was hidden by the magic circle, and Tang Mian applied a spiritual eye to himself and identified a restaurant, and strode in.

The restaurant was basically an ordinary mortal diner, but Tang Mian also captured the aura of many monks.

"Yes, yes. ”

Tang Mian bowed slightly, this fang market is located in the middle of the city, but it is really difficult to find.

At this time, a person who looked like a shopkeeper at the counter came over and asked Tang Mian if he was going to stay in the store.

A smile appeared at the corner of Tang Mian's mouth, and he casually threw out two lower-grade spirit stones. Xiao Er took the spirit stone in his hand, and after his face changed, he pointed to the depths of the restaurant.

In fact, Dian Xiaoer himself was a cultivator in the Qi refining period, but he didn't feel the aura of a monk emanating from Tang Mian's body at all, which made him think of a possibility.

"It can't be the predecessor of the foundation building period, right?"

Of course, Tang Mian didn't know the question in Xiao Er's heart, he walked into the depths of the restaurant and saw the magic circle set up in the courtyard.

After passing through the circle, a lively cultivator's market appeared in front of him, and the first thing that caught his eye was the shops of elixirs, magic weapons, talismans, etc., in addition to many monks who set up stalls in the open space at will, selling some materials of varying value.

"It's a lively place. ”

The biggest force in Qishan County is the Ice and Fire Sect, but even with the strength of the Ice and Fire Sect, it can't control such a large area, and the entire Qishan County is still in a relatively loose state, and Izumo City is outside the sphere of influence of the Ice and Fire Sect.

The force behind Izumo City Fang City is a loose cultivation organization led by the late stage of foundation building, similar to Lingyuan City a few decades ago. They have a long-term cooperation with the "official organization" in charge of Yunzhou, and they always have a lot of "tickets" in their hands.

After spending a few lower-grade spirit stones and making a few inquiries, Tang Mian got a spirit rune from a shop that sold pills for the price of five medium-grade spirit stones.

This spirit talisman is engraved with the word "boat", which is obviously a ticket to board the cloud boat. Tang Mian held this talisman in his hand, and he felt like he had been slaughtered by someone.

"That's a real money grab. ”

Tang Mian couldn't help but scold, but he was relieved to think that this was a monopoly business.

Yunzhou only made two trips in a year, and Tang Mian was lucky enough to be able to take it a month later, during which time he stayed in the restaurant at the entrance of Fang City.

When buying the "boat ticket", Tang Mian bought a map of the northern counties by the way, don't look at this map is not very detailed, but it cost two medium-grade spirit stones.

"The territory of the Zhao Kingdom is actually so large, if the rest of the countries also have this area, this world is probably much bigger than the earth. ”

Tang Mian exclaimed.

During the month of waiting, Tang Mian began to study the second layer of the Vermilion Bird Heart Sutra and the third layer of the Fire Forging Body Technique, although he was still unable to start cultivating these two layers of exercises, it was always right to experience and deduce in advance.

"Although the speed at which I absorb the aura is fast now, but my cultivation is growing very slowly, it seems that it is not a simple matter to break through to the middle stage with this method, even if I take the Spring Bud Pill to pass the bottleneck in the middle stage, what can I do in the later stage. ”

Tang Mian patted his head, he had only coveted the powerful power of the Vermilion Bird Heart Sutra before, but he had forgotten that top-level exercises like this were extremely difficult to cultivate, and if he didn't have excellent spiritual root qualifications, it would be difficult to cultivate an inch.

In this way, Tang Mian's trip to the north had another goal, that is, to find the elixir for intensive cultivation during the foundation building period, so as to increase the cultivation speed.

After a month of retreat and cultivation, Tang Mian left Cloud City on time and came to a mountain cliff dozens of miles away in the north of the city, where many cultivators had already arrived one after another.

"There must be hundreds of people here, right? I didn't expect so many people to travel between the two places. ”

Without deliberately diffusing his divine sense, Tang Mian sensed that most of these monks were around the tenth layer of the Qi Refining Period, and there were many people who had hidden their aura, and nine times out of ten these people were Foundation Building Stage monks.

He was wearing a black hat, standing in the dense crowd, and couldn't help but be a little envious of the "official organization" that built this boat, hundreds of tickets add up to dozens of high-grade spirit stones, what resources can't buy this huge amount of money?

Half an hour later, a strange and covered body of a giant boat rushed out of the thick clouds of the northern sky, and as soon as the giant boat appeared, all the monks on the cliff became noisy and excited.

"This is Yunzhou. ”

Tang Mian's eyes reflected the huge hull of the cloud boat, and he couldn't help but sigh at such a delicate and spectacular magic weapon.

The cloud boat slowly docked beside the cliff, and the spiritual light on its surface flickered violently a few times before disappearing, and the passengers who came to the three counties from the north flew out of the cloud boat one after another.
