The fifteenth episode of Aurora Immortals The eighth round of the demon clan realm
I don't know what's going on today, Huang Yunfeng always feels that something is wrong. Besides his mood, he felt that there was something else that irritated him. After walking a few streets, Huang Yunfeng finally determined that he was being followed. According to his usual familiar memory, he entered a dead end where few people would enter, and walked all the way to the innermost, staring at the bottom wall of the alley, Huang Yunfeng calmed down and shouted in a low voice: "Who is it? Come out quickly." β
With a clear laugh, Huang Yunfeng was surprised that his casual deception was really effective. He did feel that someone seemed to be following him, but it didn't feel so obvious, so he ran to such a secluded whisper and shouted, but he didn't expect to really call people out.
"You're a little better than I thought you would! I was pretty confident in my stealth skills. β
Although he didn't look back, Huang Yunfeng still clearly sensed the air behind him after a wave of ripples and fluctuations, a slender figure appeared leisurely from virtual to real. Although the figure is a little thinner, it is almost the height of Huang Yunfeng, and her taller figure than ordinary girls makes this sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl attractive enough. The slender body, goose-egg-shaped cheeks, the light tone of speech, and the graceful movements all indicate that this is a young and beautiful delicate woman.
Huang Yunfeng's telekinetic scanning is far more dependent than looking at it with his eyes. Although the other party's clothing is simple, Huang Yunfeng, who often resells the stolen goods, still discerns the value. Just a sleeveless top illustrates the economic gap between the two. It is a famous Italian fashion brand with a female surname, not to mention the texture and cut, the design cost alone is worth a lot. The clothes on Huang Yunfeng's body, not to mention the texture and handiwork, even the washing was three months ago. A small ornament from the other party will be worth more than his entire outfit.
"Why are you following me?" Huang Yunfeng's question is reasonable, it makes it clear that he is not a person of the same life level as him, he doesn't even know each other, so naturally there is no possibility of intersection. Therefore, the purpose of the other party's stalking of him is very debatable. Although Huang Yunfeng felt that the way the other party appeared was not something that ordinary people could do, and it should be related to his recent adventures, he didn't cause any trouble recently?
"You're very unfriendly!" The other party was obviously cultivated enough, and smiled faintly, and his tone did not fluctuate at all.
"Friendly, I don't know you, so it's good that I didn't turn my face. What kind of friendliness are you talking about?" Huang Yunfeng didn't have any bad associations with this girl with an extraordinary temperament, but he was afraid of getting into some inexplicable trouble, so he ensured a certain standard of politeness, otherwise he would have started scolding a long time ago.
"It's okay to follow me, and you still make me friendly?" Huang Yunfeng would not be so naΓ―ve to think that the other party was here to make friends with him.
"I'm curious as to why there are human cultivators in this city. That's why I followed to see who you really are. β
After a slight pause, this girl, who was only one or two years older than Huang Yunfeng, said in an old-fashioned manner: "It has been clearly stipulated in the international regulations that this city does not welcome any human cultivators to enter. I don't know why you're here, but you're here to say hello to us before you're free. β
Although the other party is an out-and-out beauty, her age is similar to Huang Yunfeng, and although her expression is a little cold, it is still within the benchmark, but Huang Yunfeng still can't answer accordingly.
Not knowing what the other party was talking about at all, and not quite satisfied with the implicit threat in the girl's words, Huang Yunfeng bared his teeth, played a sly expression, and continued to remain silent.
"This is family territory, please show your identity. "Today the school is closed, and I just went to the street to walk around and met a cultivator of unknown origin, how unhappy Tao Ziyan felt in her heart was already on her face.
Because the conflict between monsters and humans is irreconcilable, the human race, which has experienced many wars, has finally given up the idea of eradicating all demons and monsters. And following the international trend, negotiation, a common way to resolve international disputes and political differences, was used by cultivators and monsters.
According to the 1982 Monster Land Retention Regulations, the eight monster autonomous regions established in China include cities where Huang Yunfeng lives today. In the Monster Autonomous Region, human cultivators are not allowed to enter without reason. Separate cultivators and youkai so that friction can be reduced. Some youkai who want to live a comfortable life can also avoid being innocently hunted by monster hunters and demon slayer experts.
There are indeed some monsters with peculiar tastes, and they must be delicate children and virgin blood to get used to eating. But in the battle between humans and youkai, it's not always the human side that takes the lead. A monster that is so kind that it can be compared to Tang Seng will also be poisoned by the angry young cultivators.
In this way, the Yokai Autonomous Region was established, and only yokai with no criminal record could apply for settlement. For any reason, cultivators are not allowed to enter the Youkai Autonomous Region at will to carry out the task of eliminating demons. In the unlikely event that a criminal youkai escapes into the autonomous region, it also needs to be applied for before cultivators can enter, and they are subject to certain restrictions.
After both parents died at the hands of human cultivators, Tao Ziyan was sent by her grandfather to live in this city. The old man had hoped that she would be able to spend some ordinary life in peace. However, there are many rarer yokai than humans who can extinguish their feelings for their parents.
Seeing the swaggering human cultivators in the autonomous region, the girl's anger can be imagined.
Huang Yunfeng had no idea that Tao Ziyan was angry. He couldn't see what was hidden under Tao Ziyan's shallow smile.
Huang Yunfeng, a cultivator who became a monk halfway, knew almost nothing about cultivators on the earth. Not to mention something with a strong political surname like the Yokai Dominion. But after being a gangster for so long, he knows that he must never offend people indiscriminately. Don't unscrupulously rely on temporary strength to do something meaningless and unbeneficial. He had seen a lot of gangsters, who bullied a guy who seemed to be stupid for a while, and in the blink of an eye, they were approached by others, and they took revenge tenfold and hundredfold. If it's just a powerful and rich family, it's better, at most it's a beating. If you are connected to a dark force, you will often lose your life. This is also the reason why most of the gangsters can't always mix up their status, they don't know how to do it, and they don't know how to converge.
Tao Ziyan asked Huang Yunfeng to show his identity, he scratched his head, turned over his pockets, and said helplessly: "I didn't bring my ID card, how else can you ask me to prove it." Do you want to go to my house or the police station to check?"
Seeing that Huang Yunfeng did not express hostility, the expression on Tao Ziyan's face became even sweeter, he smiled lightly, and said softly: "Who looks at which! I want you to tell which organization you belong to, or the sect you belong to." β
Huang Yunfeng clapped his hands and said boredly: "If you don't mind, let's find a place to eat and chat." I don't know what you're talking about. I don't have a teacher, I don't have an organization, and I've lived in this city for more than ten years, but I've never heard of anyone who has taken control of this place. β
Tao Ziyan could see at a glance that Topaz Feng's ability was very strong, but he couldn't tell what level it was. As Huang Yunfeng spoke, she suddenly relaxed. It's not because she has eliminated her hostility to Topaz Wind, but because the helper she's been summoning is finally here.
"Then our ancestral temple welcomes you to be a guest, no matter how you chat. β
When Huang Yunfeng was stunned, he suddenly felt a dangerous aura rising from behind him, and he hurriedly turned around and saw a handsome young man with an extremely indifferent expression, quietly appearing behind him.
Huang Yunfeng didn't know why, he always felt that this young man was like a cold sword hidden in a sheath, and his eyebrows were sharp. That's what the boy said. Huang Yunfeng spread his hands, and he didn't care about it at all. He agreed: "I'll just go with you! But why have I never heard of any ancestral temples in this city?" I thought that there must be a fight to "persuade" the other party, but seeing that Huang Yunfeng was so knowledgeable about current affairs, it made the young men and women who appeared one after another at a loss. Tao Ziyan reacted quickly, and said with a smile: "Fang Jian, take our guests away!"
Although Huang Yunfeng never thought of resisting, he was not the kind of honest person who would believe in people. I asked a lot along the way, and finally figured out some common sense. On the earth, ordinary birds and beasts naturally have no wisdom, except for birth, old age, sickness and death, they are eaten by humans. But somehow, some species are born with extremely high intelligence, and since ancient times, these special creatures have formed their own life circle outside the rest of human society. On the earth, humans call it a monster, but Huang Yunfeng seems to have a different idea: "I'm afraid that what kind of alien remnants live on the earth, and they don't know who their ancestors are?"
The so-called ancestral temple is not a temple. Huang Yunfeng was taken to a very ordinary office building, and when he stepped into the strange-looking gate, he never expected the ancestral temple to be like this.
Separated by a door, when Huang Yunfeng opened the door, he found himself standing at the top of a tall tower. What catches your eye is a boundless and vast space, bright and magnificent. There is no ground here, and white clouds roll and flow underfoot. Hundreds of islands float in the air, like a fairyland.
The island floating in mid-air is dotted with palaces of various shapes and ancient styles. One of the largest floating islands is the one at the foot of Huang Yunfeng. There is a very high tower in all directions, the material of the building, the streamer is colorful, non-stone and non-jade, there are thousands of feet high, and it looks like a colorful magic needle straight into the sky.
Huang Yunfeng was now standing on the tower in the west, overlooking the land beneath his feet and the islands in the sky beyond, and he felt as if he had entered a dreamlike world.
"This is your ancestral temple......? It should be wonderful, it's really amazing!"
Huang Yunfeng's performance was quite surprising to Tao Ziyan. "There are people who haven't even seen the Xiaoqiankun realm, it's really a dirt bun. With this thought, Tao Ziyan's evaluation of Huang Yunfeng was reduced by three points. "I'm afraid it's just a green-headed guy who suddenly gained strength, and he doesn't know anything about cultivation......" Tao Ziyan thought.
The young man just now didn't pay much attention to Huang Yunfeng, and only then did he speak: "This Babel Tower is our passage to the outside world, and we have to go down to the ground before anyone can receive it, you come over and I'll take you down." β
Seeing the palm stretched out by the other party, although it was white and clean, and the fingers were slender, Huang Yunfeng said with a disgusted face: "I can go by myself, and I don't need two big men to touch and hold hands." β
With just one sentence, the young man's face had already turned iron-blue, and without saying a word, he turned around and jumped off the tower, shot out a white light with a shake of his hand, and stepped on it and flew downward.
Tao Ziyan shouted a few times, but the young man didn't look back. Angry, she stomped her foot and said coquettishly: "Fang Jian! What should I do if you leave? There is no staircase to go down here, and I can't fly yet!"
Huang Yunfeng had just turned around and found that this tower was really high, and he was afraid that there were ten World Trade Towers stacked up and down. And this exit, except for the gate back to the real world, is an empty platform. There are no stairs up and down at all. However, when Huang Yunfeng was glared at by Tao Ziyan, he smiled and said frivolously: "It doesn't matter if you are abandoned, I will take you down." β
Tao Ziyan's face was extremely ugly, and he said coldly: "If you want to be able to use demonic power and spiritual power to fly, you must at least have the cultivation of the 'Imperial God'. Do you have what it takes?"
Huang Yunfeng was quite embarrassed, and asked shamelessly, "What is the Imperial God?"
Throwing more blank eyes at him, Tao Ziyan said coldly: "Whether it is a human or a monster, cultivation is divided into two stages: Qi refining and divine control. The stages of Qi refining are very complicated, and the human Buddhists and Taoists, as well as other cultivators, have different understandings and different realms of cultivation. The same goes for youkai. The purpose of Qi refining is to accumulate the energy of the natural world in the body and produce great mana. Because of the difference in methods, the demonic spiritual power cultivated is also very different. However, if you want to break through to the level of the gods, in addition to reaching the highest level of qi refining, you must also have many other constraints and opportunities. Speaking of this, Tao Ziyan lightly added: "The masters who have reached the realm of the gods, there are no more than 100 people on the earth, and they are all figures who focus on all aspects, and each of them also has detailed records." If you could fly, I would see the sun coming out of the west in the middle of the night. β
Roughly speaking, the refining of qi is probably the legendary refining and refining of qi, refining qi to return to the gods, refining the gods to return to the void, refining the void and combining the way...... This kind of thing, and the Imperial God, may be the cultivation of the astral body level. Huang Yunfeng was quite complacent. didn't explain much, he grabbed Tao Ziyan and jumped out of the platform, he didn't expect Huang Yunfeng to do this, Tao Ziyan screamed loudly in fright.
After a long time, Tao Ziyan found that he was landing quickly, but the landing was not a straight line, but a large inclination, and flew quickly in the direction where Fang Jian flew away just now. Her eyes widened in surprise, and it took her a long time to say, "What the hell are you?"
After Huang Yunfeng was refined into a starlight body by Shi Qingyuan, he cultivated the immortal golden body by himself, and he had already evolved once. Although it is not enough to break free from the gravitational pull of the earth and soar through the universe. But this kind of flight in the atmosphere is not difficult for him. This world is strange, but it's still about the same as the Earth. Just now, he was quite afraid of flying, but in front of Tao Ziyan, Huang Yunfeng was able to come up.
With a fresh breeze, Huang Yunfeng suddenly found that the feeling of flying in the sky was not bad. A sense of freedom and freedom that is free from all comfort is born.
Tao Ziyan, who was pulled by Huang Yunfeng to fly, thought in his heart: "This kid can actually fly in the sky without relying on any magic weapon, isn't it stronger than Fang Jian!" Tao Ziyan just thought so in his heart, and saw a white light turn back, Fang Jian was angry, remembering that Tao Ziyan couldn't come down to the Tower of Babel alone, and was about to rush back, but when he saw Huang Yunfeng flying towards Tao Ziyan with a smile on his face, he couldn't help but snort coldly, and his face became extremely strange.
"God-level master, you have an extraordinary background!"
Huang Yunfeng smiled, twitched his skin and flesh, and said with great insincerity: "It's just a moment of luck." β
Fang Jian slowly descended with the yellow cloud wind, and remained silent for a while, before pointing ahead and saying, "All affairs in our clan are decided by the elders of the ancestral temple. As a human cultivator, you entered the Youkai Autonomous Region for no reason, and what judgment you have to accept depends on your performance next. β
Shrugging his shoulders, Huang Yunfeng still didn't have the concept of humans and monsters. This is not to blame him, Tao Ziyan has a beautiful appearance, a delicate figure, and Fang Jian is also a very delicate young man, Huang Yunfeng can't think of a different kind of top.
Most of the floating island at your feet is covered by dense forests, and in the center, a magnificent temple looks like it covers quite a large area. The three of them landed in front of the Ancestral Temple, and Huang Yunfeng found that there were people cultivating everywhere.
A man in white was meditating cross-legged on a bluestone, not knowing whether to meditate or sleep. In an empty field next to it, several people were practicing against each other, and the fighting skills they showed, whether it was their movement speed or the strength they expressed, were all beyond ordinary people. Huang Yunfeng really didn't know that he could beat these people one-on-one.
"The ancestral temple is a place where our descendants are trained, and the underage demon clan must be trained by their predecessors here. What you see is just the beginners, and the elites inside. β
Tao Ziyan walked while introducing Huang Yunfeng. After entering the four or five courtyards one after another, Fang Jian said lightly: "We're here! β
Huang Yunfeng was quite curious about what he was about to face, but he thought, "It's just to see an old man, what's so scary?" Although there seem to be a lot of people here...... Ya, I wouldn't have come in if I had known. β
I wanted to secretly cheer myself up, but the more I walked inside, a solemn atmosphere made Huang Yunfeng constantly retreat. Thinking that if he ran for his life with all his might, he would be able to reach the entrance of the Tower of Babel in a few seconds.
"It's so tall! it's a magnificent ......."
Stepping into the central temple, Huang Yunfeng was attracted by the grandeur of the building itself. The interior of the temple is unusually tall, at least twenty meters from the ground to the top of the temple. There is not a single pillar in the whole temple, and there are more than 100 meters in the east, west, north and south. Such a building, with the current level of human technology, I am afraid that it will not be able to be built.
