Chapter 2005: The World Is in Mourning
Coming out of the small teleportation array, Qin Sang saw a large circular platform under his feet, which was made of black iron.
The platform was suspended in the sky, and outside the platform, there was an endless sea of clouds and mountains in the distance.
Qin Sang felt a huge shadow covering him from above, and he couldn't help but look up. What came into his sight was a fairy city in the sky, an amazing steel city!
It was Tianji City!
Before seeing Tianji City with his own eyes, it was hard to imagine that there was such a strange city in the world of immortal cultivation.
Qin Sang saw the base of Tianji City, which was completely made of gold and iron. Pieces of steel were connected and fastened together through mechanisms, and the seams between each piece of steel could be clearly seen.
Countless huge iron pieces made by humans were closely connected, like a giant ship in the sky.
Eight steel pillars stretched out from the bottom of the ‘giant ship’, standing on the top of the most majestic mountain around.
Tianji City was supported by steel pillars, lying on the top of the sea of clouds and above the nine heavens, and it was like a giant mechanical beast-the steel spider, which could move its eight legs at any time and run wildly.
Such a huge spider, with extremely long eight legs, can walk on flat ground even in the towering mountains of Genzhou.
Under the sunlight, the whole city shines with the luster of gold and iron. Qin Sang can only barely see the shadows of steel pillars in the clouds and mist with all his eyesight.
The material of those iron pieces is definitely not ordinary iron. Qin Sang saw that there are complex runes engraved on the surface of the iron pieces, which have been carefully refined by immortal cultivators.
It is hard to imagine how much spiritual gold and black iron and how much manpower are needed to refine such a huge city.
Qin Sang is at the iron plate extending from a steel pillar.
There are countless similar iron plates on the entire steel pillar, densely packed, with not only small teleportation arrays, but also various functions.
His figure flashed and came to the edge of the iron plate, and saw the real corner of Tianji City above the "giant ship".
The structure of the lower half of Tianji City is like a giant steel spider, but the upper half is like an iron lotus.
The people here live on it, but the city is not flat. Petal-shaped iron pieces are inlaid in the main body of Tianji City, and continue to extend upward and outward.
These iron pieces are extremely thick and huge. Each piece of iron piece is a subdivision of Tianji City, where people live, and there are crowds of people and houses.
All the iron pieces are combined into an iron lotus, blooming in the sky, rough, hard, and sharp, shining golden in the sun, with an incomparable strange beauty.
On the edge of the ‘petals’, countless black spots are floating in the boundless void.
These black spots are various iron birds and iron beasts that cultivators ride on. They are undoubtedly mechanical beasts. Countless cultivators either enter Tianji City or leave the city.
Unlike the vivid black tiger and red phoenix in Canjin City, these mechanical beasts can be clearly seen as gold and iron creations. The steel shell is gleaming, indestructible, rough and cold. The gaps in the shell reveal the internal mechanical structure. Gears, spirals, bearings, connecting rods, cables and chains... The structure is precise, and a unique gold and iron movement will be played when moving.
The iron bird flew into the city and landed directly on the edge of the petals. With a "click", its own mechanism was connected with Tianji City, directly integrated and became a part of Tianji City.
Of course, there are also immortal cultivators who fly alone or ride spirit beasts, but those who ride mechanical beasts do not need to be checked and can enter and exit at will, which shows that there are some rules.
In addition to mechanical beasts, there are other means of access to the city. Around the eight steel pillars, countless iron cages are suspended, pulled by iron cables, and connected up and down, making bursts of clattering sounds.
Below Tianji City, there are palaces and pavilions among the undulating mountains. Immortals and mortals live together. Although it is located below Tianji City, it is not blocked from sunlight by Tianji City. This must be the credit of the formation.
There is a fairy city on the city, and the iron spider carries the golden flower!
Even though Qin Sang had heard all kinds of rumors on the way here, he couldn't help but be amazed when he saw it with his own eyes. Tianji City can be said to be the most special fairy city he has ever seen in the world of immortal cultivation. It aroused his long-lost memories that had long been thrown into the corner, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
I wonder if the capital cities of the eight Tianzhou are so magnificent and unique? What is the atmosphere of Baiyujing?
Qin Sang calmed down and entered an iron cage. The pulley spun, and the iron rope pulled the iron cage up at a high speed, bringing Qin Sang into Tianji City.
He didn't stay in Tianji City for too long, but just took a rough look, and couldn't wait to see the holy land of the human race. There is a large teleportation formation between Tianji City and Baiyujing, which can be traveled back and forth in a flash, and can come back at any time if needed in the future.
After asking for the location, Qin Sang found the mansion responsible for teleportation. He was received by a steward in the Spiritualization Stage.
The steward looked at Qin Sang, his expression became serious, and he stood up and asked, "Senior Qin, are you a Void Refining cultivator?"
"Yes!"
Qin Sang nodded, and heard the hidden meaning in the steward's question, and asked, "Going to Baiyujing is also restricted to cultivation?"
"Senior, please understand, there are indeed requirements. The journey is long, and the large teleportation array is risky. Generally, you must be above the Void Refining Stage to ensure safety. A Spiritual Refining cultivator must be accompanied by a Void Refining cultivator, or hold a powerful token, or meet some special requirements. Otherwise, he cannot qualify if he acts alone. These requirements are very harsh, and the cost of teleportation is also unaffordable for ordinary people. I have never had the opportunity to visit the holy land, and it is even more impossible for those below the Spiritualization Stage..."
Qin Sang asked carefully, and the steward did not dare to offend him, so he could only answer patiently.
"I see, Qin wants to go as soon as possible, I wonder how much it will cost?" Qin Sang nodded and asked.
"Senior Li is in charge of the Great Teleportation Array. Please follow me," the steward bowed slightly and led Qin Sang to the depths of the mansion.
From the outside, it looks like a city of gold and iron, but inside, there are small bridges and flowing water, just like the outside world. It all depends on personal preference.
After many restrictions, the steward led Qin Sang to an old man.
"Hello, fellow Daoist Li," Qin Sang bowed.
Facing the God of Wealth who came to his door, the old man surnamed Li was very enthusiastic and returned the greeting with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Qin, are you going to Baiyujing? What a coincidence, the Great Teleportation Array will be opened in an hour. Fellow Daoist, take a look at this first..."
He handed over a jade slip.
Qin Sang took it and raised his eyebrows.
As expected, no matter how many spiritual stones there are, they are completely useless here. All the treasures listed on it are all kinds of rare treasures in the world. There are also slightly ordinary spiritual materials, and the corresponding number is larger.
The trade fair at the Jitian Dharma Assembly used spiritual treasures as admission tickets, which was already enough to open the mouth of the lion.
It's even more ruthless here. Spiritual treasures are also acceptable, but there are requirements for the quality of spiritual treasures. Those that are barely refined and formed, with scattered power and are just for show will not be accepted.
Qin Sang does have natural treasures on him, all of which were exchanged at the Jitian Dharma Assembly or selected from the spoils of war and kept for future use. It would be painful to take any of them out.
After weighing the pros and cons, it is still the most refreshing to use spiritual treasures.
Qin Sang took out a spiritual treasure called Yuanli Jingbo. It is unknown where the ancestor Minghu got this treasure from. Among the relics of the ancestor Minghu, its quality is second only to the treasures such as the Annihilation Soul Lamp and the Spirit Tablet. Someone took a fancy to it during the Jitian Dharma Assembly, but the bid was too low and the deal was not made.
After taking out Yuanli Jingbo, the only spiritual treasure seized from the ancestor Minghu was the Spirit Tablet. This tablet is called the Spirit Sacrifice, which is refined by integrating countless flesh and blood souls. It has the weight of all spirits and is a treasure of strength. Qin Sang was prepared to have time to comprehend it thoroughly, and he could keep it for his own use.
"It seems that it is better to have less contact in the future."
Qin Sang muttered to himself.
Unless there are special requirements for the power of magical powers, Qin Sang can't afford to spend so much money to refine those ordinary spiritual treasures even if he only needs to spend more time.
After taking the Yuanli Jingbo, the old man surnamed Li carefully checked it, nodded with satisfaction, handed Qin Sang a jade talisman, and took Qin Sang to ride on the small teleportation array and enter another hall.
Entering the hall, Qin Sang suddenly felt his heart tighten. The big array here is far more terrifying than the previous one.
He glanced around calmly. This hall occupies a very large area. The big array is located in the middle of the hall, but it is shrouded by a cloud of mysterious fog, and the whole picture of the big array cannot be seen clearly.
At the edge of the mysterious fog, several people were sitting or standing, all of them were refining cultivators.
Seeing the old man surnamed Li bringing Qin Sang in, some of these people nodded to Qin Sang, while others just cast a glance and then retracted their gazes, with indifference.
"There is still one hour left, and there should be no one behind."
The old man surnamed Li stepped forward and said slowly: "Among you fellow Taoists, some may be going to Yujing for the first time, so I will say a few more words here. When you are teleporting, you must use your strength to stabilize yourself and resist the shock of the void. When you arrive at Baiyujing, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the rules are more strict than those in Genzhou. There will be special people to guide you, and you can just follow the instructions..."
An hour passed in a flash.
The old man surnamed Li stepped into the mysterious mist, and a voice came from inside after a while, "You can come in."
Including Qin Sang, there were a total of eight people, each of whom offered the jade talisman they had obtained before, and entered the mysterious mist from eight directions.
Stepping into the mysterious mist, the surroundings were hazy, and even the refining virtual cultivation could not see anything clearly. Qin Sang did not use his magical powers to peek, and stopped after walking three steps, waiting in the same place in an orderly manner.
After a period of silence, I don’t know what the old man surnamed Li did inside. Qin Sang suddenly felt a shock under his feet, and a huge wave burst out from the depths of the mysterious mist, and the green light swept out, instantly submerging Qin Sang.
The next moment, Qin Sang felt that he was bound by a huge force and was pulled out fiercely. The surrounding black fog disappeared, and he was pulled into a world of strange lights, walking through the stream of light, and even turned into a stream of light.
This place is full of extremely chaotic power, the jade talisman made a series of crisp sounds, cracked with a click, and burned all its power.
Qin Sang could still feel the violent force squeezing him madly, wanting to tear him into pieces, or pull him to the unknown. His mind moved slightly, and he activated the Gray Oriole Sword, the sword intent covered his body, the sharp edge pointed straight ahead, and cut through the waves!
‘Swish! ’
It seemed that he had experienced infinite time and space, and it seemed that it was just a moment, and the stream of light was extinguished in an instant, without a trace.
Qin Sang exhaled a long breath of turbid air to soothe the surging true energy in his body. Seeing that he was still in the black fog, there was a sound coming from outside. Qin Sang walked out of the black fog and found that he was surrounded by deep darkness.
There was no boundary in space, and there was nothing above, below, left, and right.
They were on a suspended white jade round platform, and more than a dozen jade steps extended from the round platform, and no one knew where they led to.
At the edge of the circular platform, there stood a golden armored guard, guarding this place, and they were all Divine Transformation cultivators.
"Senior, please follow me," a golden armored guard walked up a jade staircase and motioned Qin Sang to follow.
Qin Sang quickly glanced and followed closely. As expected, there were many restrictions at the end of the jade staircase. Qin Sang entered the restriction and did not dare to resist. He only felt that the surroundings were distorted and moved out. Suddenly, the sky was bright.
The vision suddenly widened.
Qin Sang found himself standing on the top of the mountain. There was an endless vast plain in all directions. The vision was almost unobstructed and unobstructed. It was not until the end of the vision that there were ups and downs.
This is a fertile land with houses standing in rows, roads and paths, chickens and dogs, and hundreds of millions of human beings living here.
Qin Sang's feet are the only mountain in the plain. It is majestic and magnificent, standing tall and majestic, and it is worthy of the name of a holy place!
This mountain is the holy land of the human race - Yujing Mountain!
Standing on the top of Yujing Mountain, the sun, moon and stars are within reach.
But in Qin Sang's eyes, the blue sky is actually an endless sea of clouds. The sea of clouds is deliberately hidden so that no mortal can see it.
Qin Sang turned around, and behind him was a white jade high platform. There was a statue on the high platform. The statue seemed extremely huge, and even its feet could not be seen under the sea of clouds.
He slowly flew towards the sea of clouds, and felt that he had passed through an invisible barrier, and when he arrived above the sea of clouds, the scene changed drastically.
The first thing that catches the eye is a tall and majestic white jade statue, which is as tall as the White Jade Mountain, with its feet on the holy mountain and the blue sky above its head.
The portrait is carved of a man in white clothes, with his hands on his back and his eyes looking into the distance. He is as majestic as jade and has supreme majesty. His eyes contain infinite vicissitudes, as if he is worried about the future of the human race. His hands were clenched into fists, and he seemed determined to use his fists to open the way for the human race.
No introduction is needed. From ancient times to the present, there is only one person who can have this honor and such magnanimity, the Jade Emperor!
Qin Sang looked solemnly, looked up and looked away, and saw a square composed of a sea of clouds around him, where immortal cultivators gathered.
In the north of the sea of clouds, there is a vast fairy palace.
There are clouds, mountains and mist, the spirit of immortality floats, and immortals come and go.
Countless majestic palaces, glazed and green tiles, resplendent.
Above the white clouds, there are layers of white clouds, and there are thirty-three layers of palaces and palaces!
Bai Yujing!
Qin Sang immediately thought of what he saw in Shenting. It was a Taoist palace imagined by the Taoist sect. It had three walls, four images and twenty-eight places. It was all-encompassing and extremely magnificent. However, the Bai Yujing in front of him really existed, a veritable fairy palace. .
While admiring the Immortal Palace, Qin Sang noticed something strange.
In the white jade capital, everyone is wearing a white scarf, and every household is hanging a white damask, creating a heavy and solemn atmosphere.
"The king of Zhou dies, the dragon controls the sky, and the world is pure!"
Someone suddenly spoke next to him, with a heavy tone.
Qin Sang was shocked to find that King Zhou had died!
When did Tianji City die? There was no sign at all?
Immediately afterwards, Qin Sang suddenly realized something was wrong.
After refining the void, his lifespan is endless, and his death is due to natural disasters and accidents. He will hardly use the word "end of life" anymore. What kind of cultivation does King Zhou have?
Qin Sang looked sideways and saw the person speaking walking beside him. Looking at his face, he turned out to be one of the golden-armored guards from before.
This was a middle-aged man with a strange appearance, but for some reason, Qin Sang felt inexplicably familiar with him.
"Old slave, see the real person!"
Without waiting for Qin Sang to ask, the man took the initiative to transmit the message and spoke in Qin Sang's familiar voice and respectful tone, "Master ordered me to stay here and wait for the real person!" ()
