Chapter 30, Luancheng
Three months later, Wu Zheng finally walked out of the Fengyun Mountains.
When approaching the border of the Fengyun Mountains, Wu Zheng also saw many cultivators entering and leaving the mountains one after another. By chance, he also learned the name of this mountain range, the ‘Fengyun Mountains’, which was considered a desperate place by nearby cultivators, and only cultivators from the periphery entered and exited.
After careful inquiry, Wu Zheng knew that he was now in Youzhou, and the nearest city to the ‘Fengyun Mountains’ was ‘Luancheng’, where a Jindan master was stationed.
After coming out, Wu Zheng put the beast egg into the beast storage bag, threw the beast core he got along the way into it, took a deep look at the ‘Fengyun Mountains’, and quickly walked towards the ‘Luancheng’ direction.
You must know that Wu Zheng is only a cultivator of the fourth level of Qi Refining now, and he cannot fly with a sword, so the ‘Lianxi Jue’ is useless. After all, with his current combat power, using the ‘Lianxi Jue’ again is a bit bullying! The storage ring was kept close to his body, and only a storage bag and a beast storage bag were hung on his waist.
The ‘Fengyun Mountains’ were more than 500 miles away from ‘Luancheng’. Wu Zheng ran all the way, walking during the day, resting at night, practicing by the way, and occasionally taking out the beast egg and letting it play with it. Only in this way could the beast egg and Wu Zheng get closer.
With Wu Zheng's eyesight, he knew that this beast egg was extraordinary. He vaguely suspected that this was the beast egg that Luan Xiaotian said that day, the beast egg with the blood of the ancient beast.
It stands to reason that this beast egg would not look down on the first and second level beast cores, but you have to know that he has never seen a beast core since he was a child, let alone eaten it. Suddenly seeing such a delicious food, he naturally couldn't help but jump out and eat it.
For five days, Wu Zheng walked and stopped and finally arrived at Luancheng at noon on the sixth day.
Near the city gate, I saw pairs of armored soldiers standing on the city wall like javelins. Judging from their lowest cultivation level, they were also at the third level of Qi Refining. It can be seen that Luancheng is extraordinary.
The city wall is about 200 meters high, stretching for more than 10 miles on both sides, and the thickness of the wall is about 10 meters. This is the world of cultivation, where the cultivators have magical spells. There is no such city wall in the mortal world. The whole city wall is made of black iron soil. The black iron soil with hundreds of millions of secret marks alone is worth a lot of spirit stones. The wealth of Luancheng can be seen from this.
Such a city is exactly what Wu Zheng needs at this stage.
"Stop, newcomers need to pay 500 low-grade spirit stones and register here." A cultivator who looked like a captain at the peak of Qi training in front of the city gate said to Wu Zheng.
Wu Zheng handed over the spirit stone and asked: "Excuse me, big brother, where can I register?"
The cultivator who looked like a captain pointed his hand and said: "Look, it's in front."
"I am a new cultivator. I need to register my identity here. Please help me." Wu Zheng handed over hundreds of spirit stones.
"Name, origin, are you borrowing or permanent residents." The man saw that Wu Zheng was quite capable and didn't waste words.
"The casual cultivator Wu Zheng lives here permanently."
"If you live here permanently, you need to pay one thousand low-grade spirit stones." The man said with a smile.
Wu Zheng didn't care and took out one thousand low-grade spirit stones and gave them to the man. The man took the spirit stones and handed them to Wu Zheng and handed Wu Zheng a wooden sign: "Here, this is your ID card. You can live in Luancheng with this!"
Wu Zheng took the wooden sign and saw that the front read "Casual Cultivator Wu Zheng" and the back read "Luancheng Only", and there were various runes below, which I think were means to distinguish the true from the false.
Wu Zheng clasped his fists, thanked him, and turned to walk into the city.
At this time, Wu Zheng was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining. As soon as he entered the city, he was already being targeted by others. Wu Zheng had already discovered it, but he didn't reveal it. He still wanted to learn more about Luancheng, so he deliberately made a circle and led the three people behind him to an empty corridor.
The three of them also knew Wu Zheng's intention, but they had more people on their side, and their cultivation was higher than Wu Zheng's, so they didn't care about Wu Zheng's actions.
"Three of you, what are you doing here?"
"Boy, we are just looking for money, hand over your storage bag and we will spare your life."
Wu Zheng was stunned. Seeing that the three of them were only at the fifth level of Qi training, he didn't know why they were so brave. He had forgotten that he was only a small cultivator at the fourth level of Qi training, and thought he was still at the peak of Qi training!
"Humph, what do you want to do in broad daylight?"
The few of them didn't waste words and surrounded Wu Zheng in an instant. They had experience in dealing with such a small cultivator. They were very tough before. After a beating, they immediately handed over their storage bags. But this time, they were afraid of being defeated! Who told them to stare at Wu Zheng.
When Wu Zheng saw the actions of the few people, he knew that they wanted to take action, so he immediately pretended to be scared, and secretly took out the needle-shaped magic weapon, ready to kill the enemy at any time.
The cultivators also flew flying swords and slashed at Wu Zheng's body. Wu Zheng took out his flying sword instantly, and the flying needle pierced through one person's head. The flying sword cut off one person's head, and the other person was so scared that he sat on the ground.
The two dead people would never understand why the cultivation of the fourth level of Qi Refining was so powerful?
"Please spare my life, sir. I have parents and children to take care of. I have no choice but to do this business." Wang Shiliu kowtowed repeatedly.
"It's not impossible to spare your life. Let's see how you perform first." Wu Zheng said with a smile.
"Please tell me, sir. I will tell you everything I know." Wang Shiliu said flatteringly.
"Oh, then tell me about the power of Luancheng!" Wu Zheng said.
"Sir, you really asked the right person. I know the power of Luancheng very well." Wang Shiliu was not sad for his brother who had just died. Instead, he flattered Wu Zheng like a pug.
Wu Zheng did not answer, but just looked at Wang Shiliu quietly.
Wang Xiaoliu's heart trembled, fearing that Wu Zheng would be unhappy and kill him, so he quickly told the general forces of Luancheng like a bamboo tube pouring beans. After all, a small cultivator like him only knows the surface, and it is already very good to be able to give a general idea.
"Well, not bad, you go!"
Wang Xiaoliu got up from the ground and turned around to run, but he fell down again after just a few steps.
Wu Zheng would never let him go. Wu Zheng had no reason to be soft-hearted for someone who wanted to kill him. Besides, Wang Xiaoliu didn't even care about the bodies of his brothers. Obviously, he was not a good person.
Wu Zheng waved his hand, and the storage bags of several people came into Wu Zheng's hands. He cast several fireballs to turn the bodies of several people into ashes and left in an instant.
Wu Zheng also learned about the power of Luancheng from Wang Shiliu. Luancheng is 800 miles in radius. In addition to cultivators, there are also a large number of mortals. The largest sect in Luancheng is the "Luan Sect".
The Luan Clan was founded by the Luan Clan. It is said that the Luan Clan has a Yuanying ancestor in charge. Some people also say that the Luan Clan has someone in the Tianwu Empire's first sect, the Jiuyang Clan. No matter what, there is no smoke without fire. The Luan Clan is definitely powerful. There is no doubt about this.
Of course, there are several small families in Luan City, but they are all vassals of the Luan Clan! The Yang Clan in the East City, the Wang Clan in the West City, the Chen Clan in the North City, and the South City is under the Luan Clan. The Luan Clan is behind the Luan Clan. The Yang, Wang, and Chen Clan help the Luan Clan guard the east, west, and north. The families have marriages, so the relationship is reliable.
As long as the Luan Clan does not fall, the people of the three families dare not make any unusual moves.
According to Wang Shiliu, there are also "Treasure Pavilion" and "Star Moon Square" in Luancheng. Of course, the largest store in Luancheng is still "Liuyun Pavilion". Of course, "Liuyun Pavilion" is not a chain store like "Treasure Pavilion". "Liuyun Pavilion" only operates in Luancheng. It is a store opened by the Luan family and is specially for the monks in Luancheng.
In the South City where Wu Zheng is located, a street is specially designated as a market for transactions between monks.
At this time, Wu Zheng urgently needs a ground fire mouth for refining elixirs. He wants to refine a large number of elixirs in exchange for some spirit stones for cultivation.
In the world of cultivation, if a cultivator wants to reach the peak, then wealth, companions, law, and land are indispensable. Just putting wealth in the first place can show the importance of spirit stones to a cultivator.
Of course, Wu Zheng himself has many natural treasures, but all of them are rare in the world. Not to mention that Wu Zheng is reluctant to sell them, if he sells them, it is estimated that Wu Zheng's life will be in danger.
In Luancheng, in front of the gate of Liuyun Pavilion, Wu Zheng appeared in black.
The three characters of Liuyun Pavilion on the gate of Liuyun Pavilion were written in a vigorous and powerful way, which was obviously done by a master.
Just when Wu Zheng was stunned, a female cultivator of 17 or 18 years old walked out of Liuyun Pavilion.
"I wonder if I can help you, fellow Daoist?" The female cultivator looked weak, but after a closer look, she was already at the seventh level of Qi training. At this age, she had such a level of cultivation, needless to say, she knew that she had extraordinary talent.
"I need a room with a ground fire mouth, I wonder if your pavilion can provide it?"
"There is a room with a ground fire mouth, one hundred low-grade spirit stones per day, I wonder if it's okay?"
At this time, Wu Zheng just wanted to find a place to refine the elixir, and he didn't care. Wu Zheng paid the spirit stone, and the girl gave him a token: "Turn left and go to the sixth room of the third row of houses. Use this token to activate the restriction at the door."
Wu Zheng clasped his fists, said thank you and turned to walk towards the room.
