Chapter 497 Strange Duanmu City

Following the stories of these eight guys, Lu Fan also learned their identities and origins.

The two strongest men with the highest cultivation level at the ninth level of the God Refining Realm are named Gu Zhongxing and Feng Lianping, respectively from Fenghua Villa and Zilin Pavilion, the first-class forces in Shenzhou.

Moreover, both of them are great elders of their respective forces, holding great power in their hands.

As for the remaining six people, they also come from other first-rate forces and second-rate forces. They are either elders or ancestors, and all of them have high status.

They all rushed to Luofeng City after learning about the Phoenix phenomenon.

Originally, the eight of them were not very familiar with each other, but they only formed a temporary alliance because they all discovered the traces of Lu Fan and Di Qing.

Originally, they thought that the eight of them, the powerful ones in the God Refining Realm, could easily suppress Lu Fan and others and obtain the rare treasure by joining forces.

But he never expected that instead of getting the exotic treasure, he would be suppressed.

Seeing the helpless and regretful expressions on the eight people's faces, Lu Fan couldn't help but be amused.

"You eight, don't feel aggrieved by surrendering to this king. In the future, you will be glad for today's decision."

After saying this, he did not explain too much, but continued to ask them for other news.

After all, the status of these eight guys is not low, and they must also know different secret information.

Whether it was news about other first-rate forces, about Dongsheng Divine Continent, or about other divine continents and about Green Goblin and other forces, he was very interested.

Gu Zhongxing and others had completely resigned themselves to their fate at this moment, so they all rushed to answer Lu Fan's questions.

Among the eight guys rushing to answer, Lu Fan also learned various news.

Although this information was not of great value, it gave him a more detailed understanding of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Just chatting all the way, several hours passed by in the blink of an eye, and a huge city appeared in front of them.

This huge city is even taller and majestic than Luofeng City, like an ancient behemoth crawling on the ground.

The two-hundred-meter-high city wall extends to both sides, and the edges cannot be seen at a glance.

Moreover, the two-hundred-meter-high city wall is covered with densely packed runes, which looks very strange.

The walls of Luofeng City are already very tall, but there is still a big gap compared to this.

Just as Lu Fan was staring at the city wall in front of him, Di Qing's message rang in his mind.

"My lord, there really is a clue to this Duanmu City. The entire city is covered by the formation, and my subordinates can clearly feel the power of the formation."

Listening to Di Qing's message, Lu Fan nodded quietly.

He had such a guess in his mind just now, but he didn't feel the power of the formation barrier, so he couldn't make a judgment.

But now Di Qing's message confirmed that his guess was correct.

From this point of view, Duanmu City and the Duanmu family are really not an ordinary mystery, and there must be some big secret hidden in them.

Thinking like this, Lu Fan took a breath and said, "Let's go to the city."

After the words fell, Lu Fan took the lead in riding forward, followed closely by Xiahou Dun and Di Qing, followed closely by Gu Zhongxing and others guarding the carriage.

The queue to enter the city is very long at this moment, hundreds of meters long.

Although the queue was very long, none of the monks made any noise, they were all waiting to enter the city.

After a while, it was finally the turn of Lu Fan and others to enter the city. Each person had to pay an entry fee of twenty low-grade spiritual stones.

Although twenty low-grade spiritual stones are completely worthless to Lu Fan and others.

But such a high entrance fee really shocked Lu Fan.

After all, this was the first time in the Tianwu Dynasty that he encountered a city with such a high entrance fee.

Although he was extremely curious, he didn't say anything more and directly asked Shi Ling to pay the entrance fee.

After paying the city entrance fee, each person received a special jade plaque, which contained some energy.

And this special jade tablet is called Linpai.

The energy in this card can last for five days. After five days, the energy inside will dissipate and the card will instantly shatter.

Therefore, twenty low-grade spiritual stones are equivalent to purchasing five days in the city.

You must leave Duanmu City immediately before the Linpai breaks into pieces, otherwise you will be captured or even killed by special patrol guards.

Of course, there is no requirement to stay in the city for five days.

If you want to leave, you can leave at any time. When you come in again, you only need to take out the temporary card. There is no need to pay the entrance fee again.

In this way, Lu Fan and others each held a temporary sign and entered the city through the 100-meter-long doorway.

The moment he walked through the doorway and entered Duanmu City, Lu Fan clearly felt a force passing through his body.

It was like passing through an invisible barrier.

Obviously, the invisible barrier that just passed through should be the formation barrier that Di Qing mentioned that enveloped the entire Duanmu City.

He turned to look at the other monks entering the city and found that they did not behave abnormally.

Obviously, ordinary monks cannot sense the power of this formation barrier.

The reason why I can sense it may be because of my special physique and special skills, or it may be because of the system.

After this thought flashed through his mind, Lu Fan felt the extremely rich spiritual energy from all directions.

After feeling such a strong aura, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised again.

The spiritual energy in this city is at least four or five times richer than the spiritual energy outside the city.

Even if the technique is not activated, the extremely rich spiritual energy around him will involuntarily gather towards the body.

By slightly operating the technique, the spiritual energy is absorbed faster.

After feeling this scene, Lu Fan immediately understood why the entrance fee to Duanmu City was so high, but no monk who entered the city complained.

After all, the spiritual energy in the city is too strong.

The speed of practicing in the city is four to five times or even more than that of practicing outside the city.

Spending twenty low-grade spiritual stones to practice in the city for five days is definitely a very cost-effective deal.

For ordinary monks, this is a very cost-effective deal. For the Duanmu family, this is also a super cornucopia of money.

After all, the entire Duanmu City is covered by formations, and there must be a spirit gathering formation that gathers and attracts spiritual energy.

If this were not the case, the spiritual energy in the city would never be so strong.

Of course, it is also possible that there are high-level spiritual veins underground in Duanmu City, which is why the spiritual energy is so strong.

When Lu Fan was thinking like this, Di Qing's questioning voice came to his ears:

"Master, should we go directly to Tianxiang Tower or find an inn to stay at first?"

Di Qing's questioning woke Lu Fan out of his thoughts.

Just when Lu Fan was about to speak, four monks in white robes came forward to greet them...
