Chapter 25 Shangqing Palace
Shangqing Palace, as a well-known cultivation sect in the cultivation realm of the Eastern Continent of the Flame Continent, has extremely huge resources and background. Different from the general Xiuzhen sect, a mountain or a cave, its territory is vast, like a small kingdom, with all kinds of organs. From the mountain gate to the main hall, you need to pass through a vast mountain forest and a large number of county seats. And at the foot of this mountain, near Shangqing Mountain, there is a bustling and lively town. At this time, four dusty figures appeared in the grove next to the small county town.
"It's finally here. Lakeside yawned and stretched. Since the cliff incident, the four of them have been on the road for four months in a row.
Ran Bingyun also smiled when he heard the words of the lakeside, without the spiritual weapon to travel, it still took nearly four months for their group of people who were at least refining the seventh-fold cultivation to travel non-stop.
"Senior Brother Jiang, we are going to enter Qinghua City this time. Ran Bingyun tied a strand of green silk behind his ear and smiled at Jiang Li.
"Oh?" Jiang Li also responded, along the way they also passed through several county towns but never entered.
Seeing Jiang Li's doubts, Ran Bingyun also smiled and said: "Qinghua City is different from other towns, all the disciples in it are my disciples from the Shangqing Palace, whether they are registered disciples or outer disciples, they all practice and live here. ”
Hearing this, Jiang Li was also stunned and couldn't help but say, "This is no different from our Tianfu Empire." ”
As if he had known Jiang Li's thoughts for a long time, Ran Bingyun continued: "You can only enter Shangqing Mountain to cultivate if you pass the Outer Sect Disciple Competition in a few months. When talking about the Outer Disciple Competition, a trace of hatred flashed in Ran Bingyun's eyes, and Jiang Li, who knew Ran Bingyun's thoughts, said solemnly in the face of the beautiful eyes staring at him in front of him: "I will live up to Senior Sister Ran's hope." ”
Hearing Jiang Li's promise, Ran Bingyun also smiled, after the incident in Lingyun Cave, she was still very relieved about Jiang Li's strength, and then she didn't know what she thought of, and a touch of blush rose to a snow-white jade neck.
The lakeside looked at Ran Bingyun and Jiang Li suspiciously, but was glared at by Ran Bingyun and hurriedly withdrew his gaze.
"So we are separated here, there is a lakeside, you can just find Shangguan Qing, he is the main person in charge of the affairs of the outer disciples, if you don't understand, you can just ask the lakeside." Ran Bingyun said, as if he had thought of something again, and continued: "This time the matter of going to the Great Wilderness Mountain Range is a secret mission assigned by the sect leader, and it must not be publicized. Although they were puzzled, the other three were not stupid people, and they all nodded to show that they understood, and when they saw this, Ran Bingyun was also satisfied and floated away, in the direction of Shangqing Mountain.
"The cultivation of returning to the spiritual realm is really not trivial. Jiang Li said as he looked at the background of Ran Bingyun, who had turned into a small black dot in the blink of an eye.
Fu Jiao, who had not spoken on the side, also nodded, it seems that it is not a few of them who are dragging their feet in the refining period along the way, and Ran Bingyun's cultivation will definitely take less than four months.
As soon as Ran Bingyun left, it was as if some stone had been removed in his heart, and the lakeside instantly became much more energetic: "Two junior brothers, then let's go, rest assured that I will be covered by the lakeside in the future, and few will dare to touch you." ”
nodded noncommittally, with Huban's personality, Jiang Li didn't think he was a reliable backer. Just when Jiang Li was thinking about it, the voice of the lakeside sounded in his ears again.
"You used to be the general of the Black Armor Army of the Tianfu Empire, right?"
"yes. Jiang Li looked at him suspiciously, not knowing why Huban asked this question at this time.
"This is a bit difficult to do, the guy next to you surnamed Fu should have something to do with the Fu family in the city, but you are just a lone seedling. Lakeside rubbed his fat chin and muttered.
"What's wrong with Senior Brother Hu?" Looking at Lakeside's frowning brows, Jiang Li asked more and more puzzled.
"Qinghua City is divided into four districts, and our senior brother in the eastern district is called Stygian Breaker. ”
"So what?" The surname Ming is rare, and Jiang Li has a bad premonition when he hears this.
"It is said that he was a member of the royal family of the Empire of the Underworld fifty years ago. Lakeside looked at Jiang Li with a strange expression.
“......”
got the answer he wanted, Jiang Li was also speechless, he had already come here, and there was definitely no reason to turn back. At that moment, the three of them were speechless, and each walked towards the gate of the city with his own thoughts.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the city, he was about to take out his token and explain to the guards that it would take a lot of trouble to arrive with the newcomer if he didn't arrive at the specified time. But when he saw a man standing at the gate, he shoved the token back and whistled easily.
"You're too slow, too. Shangguan Qing stood at the door with a smile, and then looked at the three of them carefully, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes when he saw Jiang Li. "Senior Brother Jiang, you are really making rapid progress, no wonder Senior Sister Ran looks the other way. ”
"It's just luck. Hearing Shangguan Qing say this, Jiang Li knew that his cultivation was seen through by him, and he didn't know how Shangguan Qing, who was an inner disciple, was cultivating.
"Well, it's always good to keep a low profile no matter what you cultivate here. Shangguan Qing said something in his words, and then glanced at the lakeside, "Of course, if you have a good father, it's a different matter." ”
Hearing Shangguan Qing talking about himself, he didn't squeak when he coughed dryly twice by the lake.
"Okay, even if there is a secret order from the head of the sect, you newcomers who have just arrived have disappeared for half a year before they have reported for a long time, so come with me. Shangguan Qing was obviously an insider, but he still said the non-existent secret order of the head of the sect, obviously saying that the guards next to him listened to it. Jiang Li also nodded when he heard this, and followed Shangguan Qing through the city gate, it seems that this place of cultivation is not a peaceful place.
Shangguan Qing took Jiang Li and Fu Jiao along the way through a few streets and went straight to the tower in the center of the city. Along the way, after talking with Shangguan Qing, Jiang Li knew that the water in the Shangqing Palace was deeper than he imagined. The size of the Shangqing Palace is far from what Jiang Li thought, so it is only said that the disciples of the outer gate of the Shangqing Palace are divided into four major forces in this Qinghua City, and they occupy the eastern, southern, western, and northern gates of the city. Because of the selection of outer disciples, there is usually a lot of conflict between the four forces, and there will even be casualties, but all these people in charge of the Shangqing Palace obviously don't care. In Shangguan Qing's own words, "Natural selection, cultivators are already going against the sky, and they can't even escape the rules of the Heavenly Dao, so how can they talk about going against the sky?" In his opinion, the Shangqing Palace treated this Qinghua City as a box, and the outer disciples were the Gu among them, and only the strongest ones had the qualifications to enter the Shangqing Mountain to cultivate.
Shaking his head, Jiang Li restrained his thoughts, because he had already arrived in front of the tallest building in Qinghuacheng, the Futu Tower. When approaching the Futu Tower, Jiang Li found that there were almost no people within a radius of 100 zhang around the tower, which was completely different from the scene of the people he saw when he first entered.
"Futu Pagoda is usually not allowed to enter without summoning the outer disciples, and it is also the only place in Qinghua City where fighting is prohibited, if you can't enter the inner gate, it is estimated that this is the last place you will come to this place in your life. Just when Jiang Li was puzzled, Shangguan Qing's words sounded at the right time to solve his doubts.
Nodding, the three of them had already stepped onto the steps. As soon as the gate of the tower was opened, there was no fear that someone would sneak in, and when the three of them passed through the gate, Shangguan Qing bowed lightly to the right and said, "Elder Fu." ”
Hearing Shangguan Qing's words, Jiang Li was taken aback, and fixed his eyes to see that an old man in blue with white hair was sitting by the door, less than half a zhang away from him. Looking at the old man, Jiang Li's scalp tingled for a while, he didn't have the slightest sense of what kind of cultivation this was so close, no wonder the door was so open, who could cross the thunder pool half a step with such a powerful guard?
"Hmm. Looking at Shangguan Qing, Elder Fu just responded lightly, and his eyes just glanced at Jiang Li and Fu Jiao before falling silent again.
"You, are you the ancestor of our Fu family?" On the side, Fu Jiao, who had almost never spoken along the way, looked at this old man with a slightly abnormal expression, and when he heard Shangguan Qing call the old man Elder Fu, he couldn't help but ask eagerly.
Hearing Fu Jiao's words, the old man raised his eyes again and looked at Fu Jiao, who still didn't have any expression: "Go in, the cultivation journey is endless and insignificant, what is the ancestor, what is the family?"
"Hmm. Fu Jiao gratefully replied and followed Jiang Li into the tower. Although the old man did not answer positively, he did invisibly mention Fu Jiao, and there should not be any distracting thoughts in cultivation.
Passing through a dark corridor, a huge space unfolded in front of you, the space inside the tower was obviously compressed by an unimaginable spell by a certain power of the Shangqing Palace, the space of this layer of the tower is estimated to be comparable to the size of half of Qinghua City, and such a large space is filled with three-person-high colonnade bookshelves full of books.
It can definitely be regarded as a sea of books.
"There are two excellent opportunities for the disciples of the outer sect of the Shangqing Palace, that is, there is a chance to enter the Futu Pagoda Library for a month at the entrance, and after that, there is an opportunity to go to the Shangqing Palace to wash the sword pool and select weapons. Shangguan Qing stopped after entering the library and said to Jiang Li. "Even if our inner disciples want to enter the library, they need the approval of the elders in the sect, you should cherish this opportunity, the food is prepared by someone, I will wait for you at the outer gate. Shangguan Qing said, then looked at Jiang Li and added: "There are not many things to cultivate, but to be suitable, don't waste this month's time because of greed." ”
These words were obviously Shangguan Qing's advice to himself, and Jiang Li also agreed clearly.
Complicating a glance at Jiang Li, Shangguan Qing didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes were as confused as when he was in the Tianfu Imperial Palace before, and he sighed and walked back.
"Boom. At the moment when Shangguan Qing stepped out of the door, the door of the library slammed shut.
Now, such a large library is up to me Jiang Li to choose, looking at the sea of books in front of me excitedly, Rao is Jiang Li is also very excited.
