Chapter 129 Heaven Emperor City
"The third method is to accumulate merit points. After accumulating 100 merit points, you can enter the Heavenly Palace and practice for a day." (Starting)" said the vice president.
Ning Xiaochuan asked: "What is meritorious service?"
"This...you go to Tiandi City and find out the answer yourself! The master of the hospital has already told you everything, and how to practice next is up to you. I hope that after a year, your cultivation base can catch up with famous people. Sheep, add another honor to our Third Division Martial Arts Academy." The vice-principal said.
Ning Xiaochuan and Yu Qianqian left from the vice-principal, and stood in the palace courtyard of the Third Martial Academy, where they could see the Furnace Mountain billowing with smoke in the distance.
Yu Qianqian said: "This year will be very critical for you. The famous sheep must have gone to Tiandi City to break through the sky bridge now. He also wants to improve his cultivation rapidly, and then defeat you in a year. You What are you thinking?"
Ning Xiaochuan took out a wooden box from the Qiankun cloth bag and said, "Give it to you."
Yu Qianqian naturally remembered that this was a reward from the deputy headmaster to Ning Xiaochuan, and it contained a seventh-grade Yuzhi plant, which was a rare treasure for a mind-cultivator.
"You...why did you give me such a precious thing?" Yu Qianqian's heart was a little flustered, she gently pulled the corner of her clothes with her fingers, and her rosy lips were tightly pressed together.
Ning Xiaochuan said: "His Royal Highness has helped me so much, auctioning 'Blood Toad Pill', giving away 'Qian Kun Bag', looking for the mysterious medicine 'Millennium Sleep', when I was seriously injured, His Royal Highness was also taking care of me. This seventh-grade Yuzhi plant can be regarded as a thank you to His Royal Highness the princess."
Yu Qianqian's eyes were bright, her eyelashes blinked, and she said, "Just to thank you for your kindness?"
Ning Xiaochuan nodded.
"Then... I don't want this Yuzhi plant!" Yu Qianqian smiled brightly and said, "You owe me so much, and you want to repay it completely with a Yuzhi plant? Is there such a cheap thing in the world?"
Ning Xiaochuan said: "Then what exactly do you want?"
"Nothing, I like that you owe me. The more you owe, the more you will never forget me." After Yu Qianqian said this, she felt a little regretful, her cheeks were flushed, how could she say such explicit words? It was so blunt, like a couple flirting.
Yu Qianqian pretended to be calm, and said: "What I mean is, the more you owe me, the more I ask you to help me in the future, naturally you can't refuse."
No matter how ignorant Ning Xiaochuan is about feelings, he can still understand Yu Qianqian's feelings for him.
He didn't know what to do next,
Let everything go with the flow!
Ning Xiaochuan no longer forced himself to put away Yuzhi, and said: "This Yuzhi plant is enough to be used as the main medicine of intermediate pills, and a furnace of intermediate pills can be refined. It's just that Yuzhi's medicinal properties are cold, so I want to refine it." To make pills, several auxiliary medicines are needed. [First release]”
Yu Qianqian thought for a moment, and said, "A small amount of flame lotus and fourth-grade ice muscle grass should be used as auxiliary medicine."
Ning Xiaochuan smiled and said: "I think so too, it would be even better if there is still a drop of jade essence."
"There is a place selling mysterious medicine in Tiandi City, let's go there now." Yu Qianqian said.
Tiandi City is located in the middle of the Emperor Ruins. It is an ancient city with a history of thousands of years.
Rumor has it that the Heavenly Emperor City is an ancient city that fell from the sky, where the Heavenly Emperor lived.
Furnace Mountain is 1,200 miles away from Tiandi City, because students of the Third Division Martial Academy often go back and forth between the two, so hundreds of years ago, there were strong men from the Third Division Martial Academy who opened up a mountain in the middle of the mountains. Make an old road!
The territory of the Emperor's Market is vast, and ferocious mysterious beasts often appear there, and there are many unknown creatures hidden among the mountains. Every year, many students of the Emperor's Market die from the mouths of mysterious beasts.
But this ancient road is quite safe, the aura of Wu Zun scattered on the ancient road, so that the mysterious beasts in the mountains dare not approach within ten miles of the ancient road.
On the ancient road, two figures were rushing towards Tiandi City at high speed.
Although they seem to be walking, they can cover a distance of seven or eight meters with each step, and their speed is comparable to that of a green deer horse.
These two people are Ning Xiaochuan and Yu Qianqian!
"At our current speed, we should be able to reach the Heavenly Emperor City before dark." Yu Qianqian said.
Surrounded by dark primitive jungle, the roots of many trees grow outside, and the branches and leaves cover the sky and the sun. In the depths of the jungle, the roar of mysterious beasts can be heard, carrying a primitive atmosphere.
It's like a prehistoric world here!
Ning Xiaochuan asked curiously: "What kind of place is the Emperor's Ruins? Why is the Heavenly Emperor's Academy built here? The territory here is probably not much smaller than the Yulan Empire."
Yu Qianqian's expression was dignified, and she said: "The Tiandi Academy has existed for a longer time than the Yulan Empire. I only know that the founder of the Tiandi Academy is a person named 'Tianzi', because the past time It’s been too long, so it’s difficult to study. There are different opinions on the exact time of the establishment of the Tiandi Academy, probably between two thousand and three thousand years ago! As for why the emperor built the Tiandi Academy in the Emperor’s Market, it’s completely unclear .Even the source of the Emperor Ruins is a mystery!"
Ning Xiaochuan said: "Did Tiandi City exist before the establishment of Tiandi Academy? Or was it established after the establishment of Tiandi Academy?"
"The history of Tiandi City should be longer than that of Tiandi Xuegong. It is very likely that the ancient city was built by the natives of Emperor Xu, but after those aborigines were driven out, it became the headquarters of Tiandi Xuegong." Yu Qianqian said .
Ning Xiaochuan was startled slightly, and said, "In the Emperor's Ruins, besides the students of the Emperor's Academy, are there other human races?"
Aborigines, born and bred, are the human race that originally lived in the Emperor's Market.
And the students of Tiandi Academy belong to the outsiders of the Yulan Empire, or invaders!
Yu Qianqian nodded and said: "I heard that there are martial arts masters among those aborigines, and they even hunt and kill the students of the Emperor's Academy, but those aborigines have been driven to remote desolate places, even if they secretly If you sneak back, you will be brutally suppressed and expelled by the Heavenly Emperor Academy."
"It's the law of the jungle again, the strong prey on the weak." Ning Xiaochuan said.
Before the sun set, Ning Xiaochuan and Yu Qianqian finally arrived outside the Emperor City.
Under the setting sun, the blue-gray city wall of Tiandi City looks like a mountain, exuding an aura of ancient vicissitudes, like a huge beast crouching among the mountains.
"You two are the first batch of freshmen! Hurry up and enter the city, the gate will be closed before dark." A warrior in black armor said,
Ning Xiaochuan and Yu Qianqian walked into the city gate, and the city gate was immediately closed.
Ning Xiaochuan took a careful look at the warrior in black armor. This warrior's cultivation has reached the second level of divine body, but he is at least 30 years old, so he is obviously not a student of the academy.
Yu Qianqian had a detailed understanding of the Emperor's Market, and said: "They are the guards of the academy, elites selected from the army, but they are different from the students of the Emperor's Academy, they can only stay in the Emperor's Market for one year. He will return to the barracks after a year. Even if he is a guard in the academy, this is an opportunity that many people can't even get."
The streets of Tiandi City are paved with blue stones, wide enough for four green deer carriages to pass side by side, but it is rare to see pedestrians on the streets, it is like a ghost town.
"Students from Vajra Martial Academy, Five Elements Martial Academy, and Celestial Phenomenon Academy are all cultivating in Tiandi City. It's just because Tiandi City is so big that they seldom see pedestrians." Yu Qianqian said.
Ning Xiaochuan said: "It's already very late, the Tongtian Bridge is probably closed, I will go to the Tongtian Bridge tomorrow, and see if I can buy auxiliary mysterious medicine for refining intermediate pills tonight."
Naturally, there are relatively lively areas in Tiandi City, such as the trading market.
On the trading market, many students gathered, and even some school guards and school servants would come here to sell treasures.
There are extremely rich resources in the Emperor's Market. After the students get the resources, some exchange them for merit points, while others sell them on the trading market in exchange for green gold or treasures they want.
In the exchange market, there are still mostly students from the first class and the second class. Some put the hunted mysterious beasts directly on the side of the street, peeled them bloody, put the blood of the mysterious beasts into bottles, and put the mysterious beast skins, Mysterious beast bones, mystical beast eyeballs, etc. are sold by category.
There were also some school guards who picked a lot of mysterious medicines outside the Emperor City, spread the blankets, put the mysterious medicines directly on the blankets, and waited for other warriors to buy them.
Profound artifacts, ores, profound beasts, profound medicines, elixirs, ancient treasures, etc., all kinds of things can be seen here.
Ning Xiaochuan stopped beside a street stall, picked up a fiery red lotus, observed it carefully, nodded, and said, "This fiery lotus should have grown for five hundred years, and it belongs to the fifth-grade mysterious medicine. , can be used as medicine. Sister, how do you sell this fifth-grade flame fire lotus?"
Next to the stall, sitting cross-legged was a rather beautiful woman who was practicing martial arts profound energy. Her petite and exquisite body was covered by profound energy, showing her powerful cultivation.
Luo Li was wearing the gown of a mind-cultivating teacher, retracted her profound energy into her body, opened her eyes and stared at Ning Xiaochuan slightly, and said, "Are you a freshman in this class of the Third Martial Academy?"
Ning Xiaochuan nodded.
Luo Li said, "Are you also a mind trainer?"
Ning Xiaochuan nodded again.
Luo Li said: "Since you know that Yanhuolian is a fifth-grade mysterious medicine, you should understand that only intermediate-level mind cultivators can temper fifth-grade mysterious medicine."
She doesn't believe that a freshman will be an intermediate mind-cultivator, so she kindly reminds her that it would be a waste if she can't refine the fifth-grade profound medicine!
Ning Xiaochuan developed a good impression of this senior, and said, "I'm already an intermediate mind cultivator, and I bought this Yanhuolian just to make an intermediate pill."
"Are you an intermediate mind trainer?" Luo Li was slightly startled, as if she suddenly thought of something, she suddenly realized, "Could it be that you are the man of the year, Ning Xiaochuan?"
Ning Xiaochuan was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Senior sister also knows my name?"
Luo Li was no longer so cold towards Ning Xiaochuan, a smile appeared on her face, and said: "I'm afraid there are not many people in Tiandi Academy who don't know your name. You can become an intermediate mind trainer at only sixteen years old. You are even more capable of rivaling the most kendo monks. This level of talent has overshadowed so many geniuses. You are the pride of all our mind-cultivating masters. Have you crossed the bridge yet?"
Ning Xiaochuan said: "I just entered Tiandi City today, I guess I will go to the Tongtian Bridge tomorrow."
Luo Li said: "Then you have to hurry up, I heard that the famous sheep has gone to the Tongtian Bridge today, and has broken through the first three floors of the Tongtian Bridge, and has entered the Tiangong to practice. Excellent results, caused a huge sensation in Tiandi City."
It is quite remarkable for other gifted freshmen to break through the first floor of the Tongtian Bridge, but the famous sheep directly broke through the third floor. This is definitely a deterrent, a deterrent to all freshmen, and a deterrent to Ning Xiaochuan.
