Chapter 200 The Mysterious City and the Helian Merchant Alliance
Since Feng Xi was strengthened to the extreme and turned into Super Feng Xi, today is his first official battle, which is a good opportunity to verify his strength.
He held tightly in his hand a magical treasure he had made himself, and concentrated fully during the day on preparing for battle.
"You two little bastards, die!"
Feng Xi roared, and spread his wings to a huge span of ten feet, like a white meteor falling from the sky and swooping down on the two spirit beasts. The two black monster birds found the enemy and made an unpleasant "ga" sound, flapping their wings and flying into the sky to fight.
It opened its hard big mouth and spurted out a stream of black flame.
The black flames turned into a huge fire cloud and hit Feng Xi who fell from the sky, trying to turn him into ashes.
But Feng Xi sneered disdainfully.
It flapped its wings and emitted an extremely cold air. This terrifying cold air was like a cold wave that instantly forced back the black flames. When the cold and the hot came into contact, lightning and thunder were triggered instantly. Countless silver lightning appeared, completely covering the surrounding sky.
Fortunately, I practiced authentic thunder magic during the day, so this lightning posed no threat.
"Gah~"
The two black monster birds discovered that the mutant Wind-Splitting Beast's Xuanhan magical power was very powerful. Unable to defeat it, they vibrated their wings and turned into two black streams of light that shot towards Feng Xi. They opened their sharp claws and tried to use their powerful strength to tear Feng into pieces on the spot.
Feng Xi let out a strange laugh when he saw this.
He used his magical powers to make his body suddenly become extremely huge, a thousand feet in size.
Then he flapped his wings again, and countless long ice arrows shot out in an instant. These transparent ice arrows were all like feathers, shooting out wildly and instantly covering the two monster birds.
There was fear in the eyes of the two monster birds.
He hurriedly used his two huge wings to protect himself, feeling the power of the ice arrow was too great and he dared not take it head-on.
"Bang bang bang~"
A series of explosions occurred, and countless ice arrows hit the feathers of the two black monster birds, colliding with the mysterious black treasure light, causing a huge sound like falling rocks. Although it did not cause fatal damage to the two monster birds, it knocked off a lot of their feathers, giving it a great advantage.
"Gah~"
There was another unpleasant scream, and the two demon birds seen during the day were defeated and turned into streams of light and fled quickly.
"Where to escape!"
Feng Xi was about to chase after him but was stopped by Bai Tian.
"Stop chasing. This place is extremely mysterious. It is not difficult to see demon beasts at the God Transformation level. It is very dangerous to chase after them. Check around first to see if there is anything you can find!" Bai Tian gave orders to Feng Xi.
"As you command, Master!"
Feng Xi circled in the sky, using his sharp eyes to look carefully, but in the end he found nothing, not even a bird egg. Bai Tian did not say much, and used the secret pattern golden thunder sword to cut off the rare high-year blood phoenix wood, and happily put it away.
Then continue to hide your figure and fly quickly in the sky.
While flying, he used a jade slip to record his route and also recorded the surrounding notable terrain in detail, so as to avoid having trouble finding the entrance when returning to the human world. He was very careful in his work.
No particularly rare treasures were found next.
After flying for about a year at a moderate speed, he arrived over a sea. He looked up and saw an endless sea in front of him. He could not record his route at all. He turned and flew north because he saw a huge black shadow in front of him, which looked like a mountain hundreds of times bigger than Tianxing City.
"stop!"
"Hey, humans! That's quite rare!"
Bai Tian was flying over the clouds when he suddenly heard a strange voice. Bai Tian was very alert and prepared for battle immediately. He hid his Tongtian Lingbao and looked at a piece of cotton-like white clouds. It was definitely extraordinary that it could escape his powerful spiritual sense.
"Which fellow Taoist is it?"
In fact, I didn't understand the other person's language during the day, so I answered subconsciously.
In an instant, a group of white clouds several miles away surged and turned into a strange man wearing a white cloak. The strange man looked a bit like a human, but he was a foreign race that he had never seen before. During the day, he knew that there were many races in the spirit world, so he watched and wondered who the other party was and what he wanted to do.
After a closer look, Bai Tian found that the other party was actually at the level of Spirit Transformation, which made him feel nervous.
Classify it as a great enemy!
"Hehe, you are really a kid from the human race. You have cultivated to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage at such a young age, and your speed is not slow. I am a cloud scout sent by Sanxian City, responsible for early warning and protecting the safety of Sanxian City. Now I will give you two choices. One is to pay 100 intermediate spirit stones, and I will let you enter the Sanxian City and give you a temporary waist badge as a token of trust, so that you can enter the city gate to receive the official waist badge."
"Second, you can either enter the wilderness and leave on your own! As for entering the sea, I advise you not to do that!"
Monk Baiyun said expressionlessly.
Two key points were raised: Sanxian City and one hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
After listening to this, Bai Tian thought for a moment and then spoke slowly.
"I wonder if the senior has a detailed map or jade slips? I came here accidentally and would like to learn more about it." When you come to an unfamiliar place, you naturally have to learn more about it, otherwise you will be completely in the dark.
After a while.
During the day, he took out one hundred and twenty mid-level spirit stones and got a waist badge made of spirit wood and a green jade slip.
I don't know what kind of spiritual wood the waist badge is made of, and it feels a little cold in my hand. Monk Baiyun can actually speak human language, and the waist badge he gave me is engraved with large seal characters: One person.
Turn the sign over and look at the back, there is also human writing.
"Ask the human guards to verify your identity!"
Apart from this, there is no other information displayed on the badge.
After opening the jade slip and taking a closer look, Bai Tian’s brows relaxed and he felt overjoyed.
"I'm lucky. I actually opened a passage to the spirit world. This place is a vast and wild land in Fengyuan Continent, a very secret place."
After careful investigation, we found that this place was in the shape of a peninsula. It was surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the north was an extremely dangerous wilderness with countless powerful insects and beasts. Even the Divine Transformation cultivators did not dare to cross it easily. But as long as you pass through the vast wilderness behind the peninsula, you can enter the territory of the Wood Clan and the Shadow Clan.
By crossing these two spiritual tribes, you can enter Tianyuan City and reach the territory of the human race.
It sounds simple, but it is difficult to get through with Bai Tian’s current strength.
The rest is an introduction to Sanxian City.
This was originally a small city with a port as its main function. The main power was the Helian Merchant Alliance. Later, many people came here to live and practice, relying on the Sanxian City to go in and out of the wilderness and the sea, hunting monsters and sea beasts to earn spirit stones in exchange for resources. Over countless thousands of years, as more and more cultivators moved in, it gradually became a huge immortal city dominated by Sanxian cultivators.
There are as many as twenty to thirty million resident monks, which is really scary.
Most of them were at the Spiritualization and Nascent Soul stages, and the number was equally astonishing! The two city lords who were stationed in the city had the strength of the early stage of fusion, and they came from the powerful Helian Merchant Alliance. What surprised Bai Tian the most was.
Most of the monks who came here were extremely vicious and were wanted by many forces.
So be extra careful.
Fortunately, fighting is not allowed in the city or its surroundings. There are great elders with magical powers similar to Monk Baiyun patrolling, and they will punish anyone who is found out. As for entering the wilderness and deep sea, there are no rules at all, and you can kill whoever you want and as many as you want.
"There is such a strange city hidden on the seashore deep in the wilderness. What is the purpose of the Helian Merchant Alliance to build the city?" Bai Tian asked curiously.
With doubts in mind, following the map's guidance, after several days of rapid flight and being inspected by several cultivators, he finally arrived at Sanxian City.
Looking up, Bai Tian's eyes were filled with shock!
He saw a huge mountain about a million feet high, standing between heaven and earth. The mountain was covered with snow, reflecting the sunlight and emitting colorful light. What surprised him most was that there was a circular mountain range on the top of the mountain, and a basin composed of plains in the middle. There were all kinds of huge buildings densely packed inside, and the edge could not be seen at a glance.
Countless lights and flying boats were flying in and out of the city gate, which was hundreds of feet wide. They looked like colorful ribbons, which was very spectacular. There were also many buildings on the hillside, most of which were magnificent caves.
There are fertile fields and plants everywhere at the foot of the mountain. The jade slip says that mortals live here and monks are not allowed to disturb them.
When he arrived at the gate of the huge city, he was stopped by a human girl in the middle stage of Nascent Soul during the day.
"Fellow Daoist, please stay. You are the human cultivator who accidentally entered, right?"
The girl asked while looking at Bai Tian's badge.
At the same time, she looked at the handsome Bai Tian curiously, but found that she didn't recognize him at all. She stretched out her white jade hand and asked Bai Tian to hand over the jade card. If she wanted to enter the city, she would need to apply for a waist card again and pay spirit stones.
Bai Tian handed over the badge as instructed, and the girl's expression remained unchanged.
"Come with me. Do you want to stay here for a long time or just for a short time? If you stay for a short time, you can get one mid-level spirit stone per year. For long-term cultivators, you don't need spirit stones, but sometimes you need to face the surging beast tide and contribute to the protection of the city."
A brief introduction of the girl.
During the day, he currently does not have the strength to travel through the wilderness, so he naturally chooses to stay here permanently.
About an hour later, he hung a golden waist badge on his waist and tied a golden ribbon on his arm. From then on, he became a monk of Sanxian City. He could come and go as he pleased without any hindrance.
But you need to solve everything in the cave by yourself.
Looking at the streets that were about 20 feet wide and as clean as white jade, Bai Tian exclaimed in amazement. As expected, the Helian Merchant Alliance, founded by the descendants of immortals, had an extraordinary level of city management. Curiously, he looked up and saw all kinds of gorgeous shops everywhere. There were many attics about a thousand feet high standing in various places in the city, which looked very prosperous.
The most amazing thing is that all the monks were doing their own thing, and there was no noisy hawking. Everyone spoke in low voices, and seemed to be of high quality. No one cared when day came, and they just pretended not to see it and didn't want to interfere.
“There are quite a few high-level caves, but the prices are really outrageous.”
"The annual rent for a cave at the God Transformation level is one hundred mid-level spirit stones, which is more than ten thousand low-grade spirit stones. It's really a steal!" Bai Tian exclaimed.
However, according to the jade slips given by the girl, he could join the Helian Merchant Alliance to perform tasks because he was at the Nascent Soul stage. Not only would he receive a generous reward every year, but all the Divine Transformation Caves would be free. The location was halfway up the mountain, and the spiritual energy was neither good nor bad, suitable for Divine Transformation cultivators to practice in seclusion.
The best caves for rent are naturally located in the circular mountain range on the top of the mountain. The spiritual energy quality is better and the scenery is more beautiful. However, the price is quite high and it is suitable for short-term residence or to impact the realm.
Bai Tian gritted his teeth and chose a high-quality cave on the top of the mountain. He decided to move in as soon as possible and forget about worldly affairs, and start to strive for the Divine Transformation Realm. He had been stuck for too long, and now he finally had a chance, so he naturally didn't let it go.
However, if you have the help of elixirs, the advancement to the God Transformation stage will be smoother and can save a lot of time.
Since Sanxian City was established by the Helian Merchant Alliance, there was no shortage of goods. As long as there were enough spirit stones, elixirs that could assist in the advancement of the Divine Transformation could also be easily purchased.
Spend half a year to familiarize yourself with the language of the spirit world, and then start the operation during the day.
"Fellow Daoist, what do you need? Do you need a treasure to reach the Divine Transformation Realm? Our Chamber of Commerce has some for you." A beautiful woman in her twenties, who was in the early Nascent Soul stage, smiled warmly at Bai Tian.
Bai Tian did not hesitate to express his intention:
"Are there any elixirs or treasures that can help you advance to the God Transformation stage?"
After hearing this, the woman's face lit up with joy. She hurriedly led Bai Tian into the private room, took out a communication array and called over a strange-looking middle-aged man who looked like a bug.
The man took a quick look at Bai Tian and told him about the high-level treasures collected by the Helian Business Alliance in its main store in Sanxian City.
"There are no treasures that our Helian Merchant Alliance cannot provide. We also have elixirs that assist in the advancement of the Divine Transformation. The first kind is a magical elixir called Blood Refining Tianyuan Pill, which comes from a super sect in the Blood Sky Continent. The second kind is called Pure Spirit True Liquid, which is most suitable for human cultivators. The third one is our Helian Merchant Alliance's famous secret elixir, the True Spirit Transformation Marrow Pill, which is suitable for all cultivators."
"But all three items can only be exchanged for treasures, not spirit stones. If you use spirit stones to buy, there is a magic refining Tianyuan pill made from the inner pills of wild beasts. Taking one pill increases the success rate by 10%! You can take up to three pills, and there will be no effect if you take more."
The middle-aged man who looked like a strange insect introduced it to Bai Tian in a light manner.
After saying that, he glanced at Bai Tian casually, his face expressionless and no one knew what he was thinking.
I heard that the best elixir can only be exchanged for treasures. I have a lot of treasures during the day, so I want to see which ones I need. He couldn't see the other party's realm clearly, so he must be an insect spirit he had never seen before. His magical powers are a bit special, at least at the level of transformation.
"Senior, can I see the price list?"
Bai Tian asked curiously.
Without saying anything, the middle-aged man handed a jade slip to Bai Tian. He did not think that Bai Tian, who was at the Nascent Soul stage, could provide treasures. At most, he could only use spirit stones to buy the Devil Refining Tian Yuan Pill. Since the young man wanted to see it, he would naturally let him take a look and broaden his horizons.
Bai Tian took the jade slip and looked at it carefully, then handed it to the middle-aged man with an expressionless face.
In this treasure list, there are actually many unheard-of elixir, materials of high-level beasts, etc. However, I was able to take out two items during the day.
But the treasure was quite valuable, so he considered exchanging it.
After all, I had just arrived and didn't know much about the Helian Business Alliance. Besides, this was someone else's territory, so I had better be careful. I was lost in thought for a moment.
In middle age, there is no rush, allowing people to think slowly during the day.
After a while, the young man finally moved.
Bai Tian took out an exquisite box from the storage bag and carefully placed it on the coffee table. The expressionless middle-aged man opened it with curiosity and saw a crystal jade bottle with clear liquid inside.
The middle-aged man opened the stopper of the jade bottle and scanned it with his spiritual sense.
In an instant, his pupils shrank and his breathing quickened.
He said with a look of shock: "The golden thunder spirit liquid in the bamboo tube of the ten thousand year golden thunder bamboo!"
The middle-aged man incarnated as a spirit insect stared at the liquid in the bottle and cried out in surprise, feeling particularly surprised by the treasure that was taken out during the day. It was totally unexpected that a Yuanying cultivator would have such a peerless treasure.
He gasped and felt his heart beat up and down. He looked at the rare treasure again and confirmed that he was not mistaken. The middle-aged man in gray robe was full of surprise. He looked at Bai Tian again and sighed that he had made a mistake. The handsome young man actually had such a treasure in his hand. He was so lucky!
