Chapter 152 Linjiang Mountain and Sea Division, Walking Trial

Xianmeng, Qingzhou, Linjiang Fucheng.

Linjiang is the largest port city in Qingzhou. It is built along the river and has a population of tens of millions.

In a big city like this, there is naturally a prefecture-level branch of Shanhaisi.

Territory, state, prefecture, and county, these are the four administrative levels of Shanhaisi.

This corresponds to the domain lords of the four directions, the guardians, the great palm envoys, and the palm envoys.

Among them, the domain level is the largest, with multiple states under his command.

The state level is followed by that of several first-tier prefectures and cities under his command, and so on.

The standard for measuring whether a city reaches the prefectural level in the Immortal League is to see whether the city's permanent population reaches tens of millions.

Linjiang Fucheng meets such conditions.

In the prefectural-level Shanhaisi branch, there will be a Nascent Soul-stage Grand Master Envoy sitting in charge.

There will also be at least four or more Jindan Stage Masters, as well as many ordinary Mountain and Sea Walkers and many non-staff personnel who have not obtained the status of Shanhai Division Walkers, but have also joined the Shanhai Division.

And even if they are only the masters of the Golden Core Stage, they will be selected because of the Shanhaisi Division's selection rules.

As a result, their strength is often the top group in the Golden Elixir stage.

Some evildoers can even use their golden elixirs to rival Nascent Soul.

Therefore, the prefecture-level Shanhaisi Department is basically a transcendent existence in each of its jurisdictions.

Even the Yuanying stage city lord of Fucheng has no direct jurisdiction over them.

Belongs to a special force that is above normal secular institutions.

The train station in Linjiang Fucheng.

"Dear travelers, I wish you a pleasant stay in Linjiang Fucheng."

As the announcement in the train station ended, Lu Chen and his party followed the flow of people and walked out of the Linjiang train station.

As soon as Mu Xiaoye walked out of the station, she was immediately shocked by the ultra-modern city in front of her.

"Wow! Is this Linjiang? It is indeed more prosperous than Luo City!"

Outside the train station in Linjiang Fucheng, modern buildings with a height of 100 meters can be seen everywhere.

And from time to time, some foundation-building monks would fly through the air with their swords.

Such a scene is rare for Mu Xiaoye to see in Luo City.

In addition, Mu Xiaoye also saw an interesting picture.

That is, every time those monks flying with swords arrive at an intersection, they will stop and wait for a while, and then continue flying.

It looked like an ordinary vehicle waiting for a traffic light on the ground.

So with some curiosity, Mu Xiaoye began to carefully observe where the monks stopped.

Not long after, she saw many flying signals set up between the buildings specifically for the monks in the foundation building period.

Seeing this scene, Mu Xiaoye couldn't help but ask Yu Tianqi beside him, "Uncle Tian, ​​are there any traffic regulations specially set up in Linjiang for monks in the foundation building stage?"

Hearing this, Yu Tianqi seemed to have thought of something interesting and nodded: "Yes, and this rule not only strictly limits the flying height of monks above the Foundation Establishment stage, but also strictly limits the flying speed of their swords. "

"Excessive speeding, excessive heights, driving without a license, and other behaviors that do not comply with traffic control will be punished by the Linjiang Law Enforcement Bureau."

"Of course, there is a type of monks who are allowed to be outside of these rules, and that is the monks of the Shan Hai Division."

"Due to missions or other special factors, they often need to fly quickly and race against time, so they can ignore the 'height and speed limit' regulations in Linjiang Fucheng."

Hearing this, Mu Xiaoye didn't know what she thought of. She turned to look at Lu Chen and joked: "Did you hear me, Xiao Lu? Although you have reached the foundation stage now, you don't have a pilot license, so you can't fly without a license~"

Hearing this, Lu Chen glanced at Mu Xiaoye speechlessly.

He is not an outlaw, and knowing that Linjiang has this rule, he will not fly around without any trouble.

Besides, the city has developed transportation, so why is he flying with his sword when he has nothing to do?

Does it look like he is a very powerful monk in the foundation building stage?

However, Lu Chen was indeed surprised by the requirement that a specific license was required to fly a sword in the city.

It can also be seen from this that there are many monks in the foundation building period in Linjiang City.

In other words, there are many people here who can fly with swords.

Lu Chen knew this because he saw an interesting advertisement not far away.

[You don’t have the foundation-building level, but you want to experience the feeling of a monk flying with a sword? A-16 Psychic Flying Sword, your best choice! ——Qingzhou·Shangqing Heavy Industry】

This was the first time Lu Chen knew about the existence of a spiritual flying sword that allowed monks to fly with their swords before the foundation stage.

According to the advertisement, the so-called psychic flying sword is more like a 'flying skateboard' than a flying sword.

At least Lu Chen had never seen this kind of 'flying sword' that was full of electronic components and had broad shoulders.

It has to be said that what he saw and heard in Linjiang Fucheng did have a big impact on Lu Chen.

Even though he has been a man for two generations, he still feels like a countryman coming to the city at this time.

No matter what you look at, it is full of novelty.

In fact, it was not just them, Yu Tianqi was also greatly surprised by the changes in Linjiang Fucheng.

He didn't expect that he had only left Linjiang Fucheng for ten years, and the changes here were so great that even he was a little unfamiliar.

However, in order not to lose face in front of Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye, Yu Tianqi had to pretend to be what he had long been accustomed to.

"Okay, you two follow me. We are in a hurry this time. After we are done with things, I will take you to have a good walk in Linjiang City."

Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye nodded, and then followed Yu Tianqi to the taxi not far away.

Although Linjiang City is just a transit station for their trip this time.

But they have a very important thing to do in Linjiang City.

That is to participate in the "walking trial" held by the Shanhai Division once a year.

And only the Shanhai Division above the prefecture level is qualified to hold this trial.

The so-called walking trial is actually a special trial for the Shanhai Division to select members.

If Yu Tianqi wants to take Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye to Qingzhou Shanhai Division, then this is a step they cannot avoid.

Because Qingzhou Shanhai Division only allows formal members to enter, that is, the lowest "Shanhai Walking" level.

If they are not Shanhai Division members above Shanhai Walking.

Even if there is someone like Yu Tianqi leading them, Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye will not be able to enter.

That's why Yu Tianqi took Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye to stop temporarily in Linjiang Prefecture City.

The purpose is to let the two get a "apprentice walking" license first.

After the two have selected their own mountain and sea beasts from the Shanhai Division, the word "apprentice" on their licenses will completely disappear.

As for whether Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye can pass the "walking trial", Yu Tianqi is not worried at all.

Because if even they can't pass the trial, then there are few people in this world who can pass the trial!

After getting in the taxi, after listening to the destination of several people, the driver stepped on the accelerator and immediately drove several people to the Linjiang Shanhai Division Branch...

Linjiang Shanhai Division Branch.

Because it is a walking trial held only once a year, there is a crowd outside the Linjiang Shanhai Division Branch building at this time.

In addition to those who are preparing to participate in this walking trial, there are also many members of the Linjiang Shanhai Division.

And the reason why they are here is also very simple.

One is to maintain order, and the other is to watch the excitement.

"Yangyang, how many people do you think can pass our company's test this time?"

In the building of the Shanhai Division, a pretentious uncle with yellow hair was chewing gum while curiously looking at the crowd surging in the square outside.

Beside him, a gentle and intellectual woman was holding a pen and paper, writing something expressionlessly, so she turned a deaf ear to the pretentious uncle's words.

In this regard, the exaggerated uncle said in a bored manner: "The headquarters is really something. Why do they make the trials so complicated every year? It's time-consuming and laborious."

"If you ask me, those people in the headquarters are stupid. Just let them fight with us walkers. If they win, they will pass the trial. If they lose, they can go back to continue practicing, right?"

Hearing this, the intellectual woman named Xu Yangyang adjusted her glasses, turned her head and looked at him and said: "You insulted my senior management without reason. I will tell Master Li everything you just said."

"Wow! Yangyang, you are not kind. Why did I insult you without reason? Isn't this a reasonable question! You are going to tell this to Boss Li. Yangyang, you are too unkind!"

Xu Yangyang ignored Yan Lei's sophistry and said calmly: "You said this, I'd better save it for later and talk to Master Li. "

Hearing that Xu Yangyang really didn't intend to let him go, Yan Lei immediately clasped his hands together and begged for mercy: "I'm wrong, sister. My salary this month is almost deducted. If you tell these words to Boss Li, my wallet will really be empty! How can I buy things for my wives in the game!"

Perhaps taking advantage of the topic, Xu Yangyang couldn't help but say: "Yan Lei, you are at least 30 years old, and you should think about the future. Look at you now, with a salary of 100,000 a month, you can actually spend more than half of it on games every month."

"Yan Lei, can't you plan your life well and stop wasting money like this?"

If it were something else, Yan Lei might be submissive, but when it comes to spending money on games, Yan Lei has his own persistence!

"What do you mean by wasting money? Can I call it a waste if I spend money on my wife in the game? That's called a betrothal gift!"

Seemingly amused by Yan Lei's sophistry, Xu Yangyang crossed his arms and sneered, "Ah, yes, yes, yes, I hope you will have the same attitude towards your future life, and then marry your wife in the game! The premise is that they can come out of the game."

Yan Lei spread his hands and tilted his head to the side, looking like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water.

Seeing this scene, Xu Yangyang was too lazy to say anything more.

After all, if Yan Lei could listen to advice, he would not spend so much money on the game.

"Okay, the trial is about to start. You are the examiner of this first trial. Go down and prepare quickly."

"Don't rush, don't rush, it's not going to start in three minutes, let me fish for a while."

"You'd better not be late, otherwise, let alone this month, you may not be able to keep your salary for next month."

After that, Xu Yangyang left with his notebook.

In response, Yan Lei rested for a while, stretched his body, and then turned to walk into the Shanhaisi building.

As he walked, he muttered to himself: "Alas, workers, working souls, is there no job in this world that only requires a salary and no work..."

At the same time, the hundreds of people gathered outside the Shanhai Division seemed to have received some information and began to walk towards a place in the Shanhai Division.

A trial site in Linjiang Shanhai Division.

"Xiao Lu, we seem to have been sent to a secret place."

"Yeah."

Lu Chen looked at the empty cave in front of him, and then looked at the number plate on his waist and the special bracelets and foot rings locked on his limbs.

These were put on him and Mu Xiaoye by the Shanhai Division staff after they followed Yu Tianqi to apply for this walking trial.

The number on Lu Chen's number plate is '520', and Mu Xiaoye's number plate is '519'.

And because they almost participated in the trial at the last application time.

So they were the last two of this trial.

This means that in this trial, a total of 520 people participated in this walking trial.

Among these 520 people, Lu Chen found that there were many cultivators in the foundation-building period, about a hundred in number.

As for the remaining 400 people, they are basically at the eighth or ninth level of Qi training.

This shows the difficulty of this walking trial.

Just when Lu Chen was still curious about the reason why the Linjiang Mountain and Sea Division Branch let them enter this secret realm, a voice with a loudspeaker obviously sounded from not far away.

"Good afternoon, fellow trialists."

"I am the trial officer of your first trial, the Linjiang Mountain and Sea Division walker, Yan Lei."

Lu Chen looked in the direction of the voice and soon saw the yellow-haired and boastful uncle, Yan Lei, floating in the air of the cave with a loudspeaker not far away.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yan Lei immediately spoke again.

"I won't waste any more time talking nonsense. I'll tell you directly about the content of this first trial."

"This first trial is very simple. Just follow me and keep going until the end. It tests everyone's physical strength and willpower."

"And the first 100 trialists who reach the end will be considered to have succeeded in the first stage of the trial."

"Don't think this is easy. Why do I say that? Take a look at the gravity rings on your hands and feet first."

Hearing his words, most people looked down at the gravity rings tied to their limbs.

"This gravity ring is a spiritual technology created by Shangqing Heavy Industry. Its function is very simple. It can absorb the spiritual power emitted from your body, thereby increasing its weight."

"The more times you use spiritual power, the heavier these gravity rings will be."

"Therefore, I remind you again that if it is not necessary, it is better to use less magic in this first trial."

"Because once the magic is used too much, the weight of these gravity rings will soon reach a level that makes it difficult for you to move."

"In this way, it will be difficult for you to complete this first trial."

"And according to your information, the gravity ring It is divided into a physical cultivation gravity ring and a Taoist cultivation gravity ring. In addition to the difference in color, the latter also has a fixed starting gravity. "

"And this starting gravity is specially adjusted according to the different cultivation levels of your physical cultivation, so as to narrow the gap between you and other Taoist cultivations as much as possible."

"So all physical cultivators should not think that you have an advantage in this first trial. Once you do not allocate your physical and spiritual strength reasonably, it will be difficult for you to complete this trial."

"Okay, I won't say much nonsense, the trial... begins!"

After the words fell, Yan Lei turned around and jogged towards somewhere outside the cave.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding trialists took action and followed Yan Lei's back, jogging together.

The majestic appearance was similar to running a marathon.

And seeing that everyone was moving, Mu Xiaoye, who was at the end of the team, did not rush to act.

She stretched her muscles and bones, then looked at Lu Chen and said, "Xiao Lu, just the trial is a bit boring. How about we compete to see who can reach the end first? The loser will treat us to dinner. How about that?"

Lu Chen looked at the red gravity ring tied to Mu Xiaoye and the blue gravity ring tied to himself, and said with a smile, "Okay."

"That's a deal!"

After the words fell, Mu Xiaoye rushed out directly.

From the looks of it, she didn't think of holding back at all, and she just sprinted right away.

It can be seen that even when she couldn't use spiritual power, Mu Xiaoye was still full of confidence in her physical strength.

In response, Lu Chen smiled and followed.

After all, although he didn't practice physical skills much.

But the magical power of "casting the body into a soldier" still greatly strengthened Lu Chen's physique.

So that his physical strength is definitely not inferior to that of physical cultivators of the same level.

And most people saw the two people sprinting at full speed from the beginning.

In addition to being surprised, the eyes looking at them were also full of sarcasm.

You should know that the walking trial is held every year, and the content of the trial remains unchanged.

Therefore, many people present have participated in several walking trials.

So they are familiar with the content and process of the entire walking trial.

And this first trial is just as the trial officer Yan Lei said, it is a test of everyone's physical strength and willpower.

It is undoubtedly reckless to waste physical strength at the beginning!

Young people, don't be too arrogant. Being too independent is not necessarily a good thing.

That's right, in the eyes of many trial participants around, Lu Chen and Mu Xiaoye's actions are the manifestation of young people not knowing the immensity of the world.

Yan Lei, who was still jogging slowly, soon noticed the situation behind him.

He looked at Lu Chen and the other person who had already rushed out of the first echelon and were approaching him at an alarming speed, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

‘It’s so intense right from the start, young people nowadays are really impatient. ’

Thinking of this, Yan Lei increased his running speed without hesitation.

He also accelerated the pace of the trial in disguise.

In this regard, Mu Xiaoye seemed to have no idea what physical strength was.

As soon as she saw Yan Lei start to speed up, she actually started to speed up as well.

Seeing this, Lu Chen had to speed up as well.

Seeing this, Yan Lei frowned.

No, what’s wrong with you two, I clearly said that the content of the trial is to follow me to the finish line.

I didn’t ask you to let you surpass me.

Do you two want to surpass the trial officer and reach the finish line ahead of time? What a joke!

In order to protect the dignity of his trial officer, Yan Lei accelerated again.

But when he accelerated, Mu Xiaoye also accelerated immediately, closing the distance between her and Yan Lei again.

Seeing that Mu Xiaoye and Lu Chen had already run to the front of all the trialists and kept approaching him, Yan Lei became anxious.

No, you girl is endless, right!

Want to play?

Then I will have fun with you today!

If I, Yan Lei, can't beat you two young people in this trial, then I will write my name Yan Lei backwards!

With an inexplicable desire to win, Yan Lei accelerated again.

And this time, Mu Xiaoye didn't know whether she had no spare energy or did it on purpose, but she didn't speed up anymore.

Began to maintain this speed and followed behind Yan Lei.

But this made other trialists suffer.

Because this running speed is no longer something that ordinary cultivators can keep up with.

The team of more than 500 people soon formed obvious echelons.

Some Taoist cultivators with average physical strength have even begun to use magic to bless themselves.

Even if this will cause the gravity rings on their bodies to start to increase in advance.

But they have no choice.

Because if they don't use magic, they will not be able to keep up with the main force.

For a while, the entire trial team began to complain because of Mu Xiaoye's sudden attack.

You know, they have only reached one-tenth of the first trial.

In the past, people were usually forced to use magic when the trial process was one-third of the way through.

But because of Mu Xiaoye, the pace of this trial was greatly accelerated.

Thinking of this, many people looked at Mu Xiaoye with unfriendly eyes.

If you want to be competitive, there will be plenty of opportunities in the following trials.

But why do you want to drag us into the water!

Mu Xiaoye didn't care about this at all.

If you are not good, practice more, and if you can't afford to lose, don't play.

She did this deliberately to speed up the pace of the trial.

After all, if Yan Leihe ran slowly at the beginning.

Then it would take a long time to reach the finish line.

Instead of wasting time like this, she might as well increase everyone's strength from the beginning and end this boring trial as soon as possible.

Harming others without benefiting herself?

No, she just let some people who can't see the reality clearly see the reality in advance.

Soon, under Mu Xiaoye's unexpected speed increase, many people began to fall behind in advance...

PS: The second update will be before 12 o'clock.
