Chapter 711 A Small Test of One’s Skills
Chapter 711 A small test of one’s skills
Walking in the deep, dark and long corridor of the Babel Tower, the sharp sounds of countless poisonous insects and beasts could be heard in my ears. From time to time, a group of ghost-like priests and maidservants passed by me. Everyone looked at Wu Qi when he passed by. , they all bowed deeply and respectfully, silently, and no one dared to look at anything above Wu Qi's belt.
Dayu is a country with strict hierarchy. The Sitian Palace in Dayu is the oldest, most traditional, most conservative, and hardest piece of granite in Dayu, a country that is ancient, traditional, conservative, and as boring as granite. When Wu Qi was walking in the corridor, some of the guards and priests at the fixed sentries even held their breaths. They also used secret methods to temporarily stop their heartbeats, lest they make any sound and disturb Wu Qi, Yangqiu. The big celebrity next to Wang.
Wu Qi walked outside the hall where King Yangqiu and the others were having fun. The thick bronze door could not cover up the subtle sounds coming from the hall. Wu Qi smiled slightly, made some calculations with his fingers, and walked slowly out of the Babel Tower along the corridor in front of the main hall.
These priests of Sitian Temple really have unpredictable magical powers. From the outside, the Tower of Babel looks like a small square, but the interior space is extremely vast. Wu Qi walked out of the Tower of Babel from the secret room, which cost him enough time. A full half-quarter of an hour.
Standing at the exit at the top of the Babel Tower, I looked at the scenery of the Wild Greenwoods. At this moment, the bright moon was in the sky, and the moonlight as white as silver shone on the shadowless greenwood. This magical ancient sacred tree gave off a faint green light, as warm as jù. The light shines for thousands of miles, and the grassland covered by the light looks particularly quiet and peaceful. Occasionally, there will be several roars of wild beasts heard from the edge of the lake in the distance, which are nocturnal predators hunting at night.
Glancing at the hundreds of priests on duty outside the Babel Tower, Wu Qi said in a deep voice: "I will go to Qingmuguan for a walk. If the prince asks, this is how you will respond!"
The priests bowed silently, signaling that they had heard Wu Qi's instructions. Under the silver moonlight, these priests wearing black robes and even their faces covered by cloaks were bent over, like black paper-cut figures, revealing a hint of cold mystery. Even though Wu Qi was already used to the behavior of these priests, he still couldn't help but feel a thrill all over his body, and a goosebump suddenly appeared in his heart.
Shaking his head, Wu Qi jumped off the Babel Tower and landed on the ground. The fluctuation of a spiritual vein was quickly caught by Wu Qi. He stepped out casually, and Kuafu followed the sun. With a twist of his body, he arrived at the exit of the Aoki Wilderness, a long and narrow valley sandwiched between two high mountains. This valley is hundreds of miles long and leads directly to the outside world, and is about thirty feet wide. The two high mountains are densely covered with countless mountain peaks and plank roads, and there are 100,000 troops stationed in it to guard the Aoki Wilderness.
Wu Qi waved to the sentry standing on the top of the mountain, and then reached the other end of the valley in a flash. After breaking through the air that was as thick as glue, the front suddenly became clear. A majestic city stood tall in the valley, with lights dotted inside. The night wind carried the laughter of women and the rough shouts of men.
Naxiong City is Qingmuguan. The outer wall of this city is entirely made of metal, and it is densely covered with countless talismans and restrictions. There are high mountains on both sides of Qingmuguan, and two rows of high walls were built based on the mountains. There are all kinds of businesses in the pass, and there is no shortage of wine, sex, wealth and all kinds of enjoyment. This Qingmuguan was built for the soldiers stationed in the Qingmuzhiye. Every few days, soldiers who took turns coming out of the Qingmuzhiye would enter Qingmuguan to enjoy themselves.
The Aoki Wilderness is a crucial place in Dayu, and the Aoki Divine Liquid produced is of great value, so there are a hundred thousand troops stationed there. These hundred thousand troops are not allowed to leave the Qingmu Wilderness, which is a hundred miles away. Their various desires also need to be resolved, and Qingmuguan was built for this purpose.
Originally, Qingmuguan was a purely military town, but over time, because the poor mountains near Qingmuguan produced all kinds of powerful monsters and spirit beasts, and were rich in various spirits and rare ores, there were a large number of hunters and traders. The team gradually used Qingmuguan as its distribution center. Today's Qingmuguan has become the largest commercial center in this mountain range, and its bustling and lively place is even more prosperous than Zhongning City, the capital of Zhongzhou.
Wu Qi wore a black battle robe and a bloody cloak on his back, and walked into Qingmuguan with his hands on his back. On both sides of the spacious road, there are countless shops, restaurants, brothels, casinos, etc. Although Dayu is conservative and traditional, brothels and casinos seem to exist no matter how conservative the place is. There are hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in the Qingmu Wilderness, and their military pay is extremely generous. Therefore, the number of entertainment venues such as brothels in Qingmuguan is also the same. Extraordinarily many.
King Yangqiu's army had been stationed here for thirty-six days, and Wu Qi was busy making sacrifices to the Xuanyin Star Tower. This was the first time he formally appreciated the customs of Qingmuguan. Even though it was late at night, the place was still very lively and filled with a barbaric atmosphere of life. A woman's loud scream and a man's low-pitched gasp like a bull's roar came from the roadside brothel. The sounds of various gambling equipment in the casino were harsh. Countless people with extremely high energy were yelling. There were drunk people in several restaurants. The drunken men were fighting with each other, and there were countless people applauding and stamping their feet to cheer them on. . .
The shops also had their doors open, and they were dotted with a few dim lights. There are big men who behave like ghosts and sneak into these shops, secretly showing their harvest to the shopkeepers, hoping to sell it for a sky-high price that will allow them to live a lifetime of food and clothing. The shops in Qingmuguan always do better business at night than during the day, because if you sell the Divine Seal Throne for a big price during the day, you may be robbed in the street before you can take a few steps, but at night it is much more hidden and safer. Much better.
From time to time, suppressed laughter could be heard in these shops. It was obvious that someone had found extremely valuable things in the mountains and fields, and those shops offered high prices for the purchases that were beyond their imagination. Although these shops are protected by various restrictions outside, Wu Qi's innate consciousness can enter and exit their shops at will. The smiling Wu Qi's consciousness scanned the goods and just shook his head gently.
There were a few good things, but Wu Qiu was not interested in them.
He had mastered the art of divination from the stars that he had learned from Su Qin. As soon as he started to work hard, Wu Qi noticed that there was a strong murderous intention coming towards him, just like the omen before someone stabbed him with a bear-killing arrow years ago. Those people are really persistent. They have been following me for such a long time?
For more than a year, Wu Qi had been aware that someone was following him, but he was in the midst of a large army, and those people did not dare to rush into King Yangqiu's military camp. That was really asking for death, so he had a year A variety of materials for Taiping's sacrifice. But now that Xuanyin Star Tower has been successfully sacrificed, Wu Qi really wants to let this treasure see blood. At the same time, he wants to see who is so obsessed with him.
Walking on the streets of Qingmuguan, although the streets were extremely busy with people coming and going, wherever Wu Qi passed, the flow of people subconsciously separated, and no one dared to come close to Wu Qi's three feet. The shirt on his body showed his identity. Everyone who hung out in Qingmuguan knew that they should never provoke people from Dayu's army, as that would definitely be asking for trouble. There is an unspoken rule recognized by everyone in Qingmuguan - it is natural for soldiers stationed in Qingmuzhiye to kill people!
There was a huge circle around him, and Wu Qi stood out so clearly on the street.
On a tall building by the roadside, Patriarch Yuanhua and Lu Buwei looked at Wuqi with squinted eyes and heaved a sigh of relief at the same time. Ancestor Yuan Hua shook his head and sighed: "This baby finally traveled alone, otherwise when would the ancestor be able to kill him? Hey, it's an immortal mansion. No matter what, the ancestor of the immortal mansion wants it!"
Lu Buwei nodded, glanced around, and sneered in a low voice: "There are still many people eyeing this kid. Now that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has been defeated, the lives of those casual cultivator families are sad. Countless casual cultivators are poached every day. Come out and destroy it. The temptation of a hidden fairy mansion is too great. Master, if we want that fairy mansion, we have to put in some effort."
Ancestor Yuan Hua snorted disdainfully, with a ferocious bloody light in his eyes, and sneered in a low voice: "Then just kill these juniors together! Over the past year, Ancestor has collected countless blood essences and Shenghun, hey, it’s time for this ancestor’s natal magic weapon to be used to kill people!”
A large bloody flag slowly rose from the head of the ancestor Yuanhua. The ancestor Yuanhua controlled the blood flag to prevent it from emitting any light. The blood flag, which looked pitch black in the moonlight, turned into a shadow and flowed toward Wu Qi on the ground, just like a piece of dirty blood quickly flowing away on the ground.
Countless scoldings came at the same time. On the hundreds of tall buildings around Wu Qi, at least a thousand immortals and cultivators raised their flying swords and struck down Wu Qi on the head. The density of the flying swords was so great that more than a thousand flying swords collided with Wu Qi's head, and hundreds of flying swords were hit and exploded on the spot. Shocked and angry curses could be heard from afar, and all kinds of magical weapons and thunders were overwhelmingly attacking Wuqi.
"Kill, kill him! Kill him and you will have an absolutely safe immortal mansion!" The immortals and casual cultivators shouted in unison!
In just over a year, the situation on Pangu Continent has changed too fast, and the living space of casual cultivators has been squeezed to the limit. The appeal of an absolutely secret fairy mansion offered by Gourd Immortal Square has increased even more than a year ago. More than a hundred times! With this Immortal Mansion, you have a chance to survive, and you have a chance to continue your family or sect on Pangu Continent!
Therefore, Wu Qi's appeal is even greater now. Not long after King Yangqiu's army arrived at the Wilderness of the Greenwood, more than a thousand immortals and casual cultivators escaped from the encirclement and interception and came here, hoping to capture Wu Qi. Kill with one hit. There are more immortals and Sanxiu coming here following the movement of King Yangqiu's army, but the journey is far away and they haven't had time to arrive.
Seeing countless magic weapons falling with lightning, Wu Qi laughed wildly, and the Xuanyin Star Tower that had just been successfully sacrificed flew out.
The huge black tower was suspended above Wu Qi's head, and the cold aurora shrouded Wu Qi's body. A large number of magic weapons hit the light banner composed of the cold aurora, and were immediately frozen to pieces by the terrifying cold air, or were crushed by the unrivaled sharpness. Aurora chipped into pieces. Countless screams came from far and near, and the immortals and casual cultivators who were eager to take action vomited blood and retreated.
Wu Qi snorted coldly and pointed at the Xuanyin Star Tower. A large wave of water spurted out from the base of the black tower, turning into hundreds of huge white dragons flying in the air towards the immortals and casual cultivators. With screams of terror, the immortals and casual cultivators were rolled up by the giant dragon and pulled into the tower.
The shrill alarm bell rang, the Qingmuguan garrison troops were dispatched, and dull footsteps were heard from all directions.
A sheet of blood rushed out from in front of Wu Qi, and a large bloody flag rushed toward him with the pungent smell of blood.
I haven't recovered from my cold. I eat a rice dumpling and get diarrhea and stomachache. . . Ouch. . . miserable!
