Chapter 288 The Legend of Utopia
From the photos, the entire Taoyuan City is under a huge "dome".
At the same time, there are countless "filaments" hanging down from the dome, and there are eighty-one filaments evenly distributed in an average of one foot square space.
After several tests, Gu Xia determined that this "filament" is invisible and intangible, and cannot be disturbed by physical touch. People can walk freely inside, but will be disturbed or pushed away when encountering the soul force field.
These filaments should be sensors that can monitor the soul force fluctuations in all corners of Taoyuan City in real time.
If someone is making trouble, Taoxianfu can find it instantly when performing Taoist magic, and determine who it is based on the registered soul force characteristics.
In the photos taken by Xingchen with the Eye of the Heart, it can be seen that his whole body is covered by a layer of restrictions, which is a very advanced Taoist magic.
It is this restriction that locks his Xuan Gong cultivation.
Fortunately, this layer of restrictions does not allow exit, but allows entry, so Gu Xia can still absorb the outside world's Xuan force to practice Xuan Gong normally.
"With such a dense detection network, it is impossible for me to perform Taoist magic without touching the filaments.
Then I have very few means to use, and the most important point is..."
Gu Xia's mind moved.
Under the oil lamp, the shadow under his feet separated from the main body and slowly patrolled in the room.
It was bigger than the shadow crocodile before, and it could reach more than three meters long when fully released, which could be called a giant beast.
The shadow crocodile swam a few circles, and Xingchen was always observing the surroundings.
Good news came soon.
Because the shadow crocodile was actually patrolling in the sea of blood, the world was just a two-dimensional projection without thickness.
Therefore, the shadow crocodile would not touch those "filaments", and the shadow crocodile did not need to be driven by soul power. It was equivalent to Gu Xia's summoned beast.
That means that Gu Xia's most critical soul harvester can operate as much as possible.
However, it is not appropriate to start when you first arrive.
Tonight, Gu Xia just sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and practiced.
Consciousness escaped into the spiritual platform, and Gu Xia began to check Xingchen's work log.
As usual, everything is normal, and the upgrade of the two skills is also progressing steadily.
Not long ago, the fusion of the Violent Qi Jue and the Crazy Blood Art was completed.
The fused martial arts was optimized by Xingchen to the internal organs level, and can gain strength by burning flesh and blood. Gu Xia named it "Burning Blood Art".
This martial arts has two levels.
After the first level is turned on, the upper limit of the skill is increased by 100%, and the amount of Xuanqi is increased by 100%. The longest duration is a quarter of an hour. The cost is that the body will fall into a weak state for at least one day after use, and the Xuanwu combat power will be halved during this period.
The weak time is proportional to the use time of the martial arts.
After the second level is turned on, the upper limit of the skill is increased to 900% of the original, and the amount of Xuanqi is increased to 900% of the original. The second level of the Burning Blood Art can be opened until the flesh and blood are burned out.
If you don't die, you will fall into a weak state for at least one year, during which the combat power is only 10%, and you can't use Xuanqi for at least three months.
However, the weak state of the Burning Blood Art can be alleviated and recovered by blood-eating all living beings.
In general, the first level of the Blood Burning Art is a fighting martial art, used to break through difficulties, while the second level is completely crazy, used to trap beasts in desperate situations.
There is no doubt that the "Blood Burning Art" is a very top-level life-threatening skill.
Therefore, Gu Xia is also looking forward to other martial arts that Xingchen will upgrade.
However, due to the problem of computing power, Xingchen cannot strengthen the big moves such as Taibai Edict, Source Blood Qi Slash and Blood Dragon Fang in a short time.
At this moment, 50% of Xingchen's computing power is used for the upgrade of the "Blood Demon Mysterious Art" into the internal organs, and it will take more than a year to complete.
However, the effectiveness of the Blood Demon Mysterious Art upgrade has begun to show, Gu Xia's physical regeneration ability is getting stronger and stronger, and the recovery of all aspects is getting faster and faster, and the efficiency of swallowing blood food is also increasing.
Xingchen also has 40% of the computing power for the upgrade of the "Taibai Mysterious Art" into the internal organs.
The computing power of the Taibai Mysterious Art upgrade is obviously not as large as the Blood Demon Mysterious Art, and it only takes about ten months to complete the upgrade.
When Gu Xia opened his eyes again, it was already bright outside.
He stretched his muscles.
"Let's go around today, get familiar with the terrain, and learn about the distribution of the Wuling Guards in the city and their patrol time..."
Gu Xia knew the importance of doing a good research beforehand.
In his previous life, there was a hero named Ram who changed the way the entire industry played and was considered a master in the industry. However, because of a small negligence and a bit of bad luck, he died in his best career.
As a younger generation, we should take this as a warning.
After planning today's itinerary, Gu Xia pushed open the door and went out.
...
In the teahouse.
Bang!
A storyteller slapped the wake-up stick and began to tell a story.
"…At that time, the Great Gan Dynasty had not yet been established, the world was in chaos, and heroes from all states rose up, opening the prelude to the struggle for supremacy in the Central Plains!
Yunzhou was not spared and fell into war. At that time, Hanzhou had not yet surrendered. The Huns outside the border saw the chaos in the Nine Provinces and suddenly became ambitious, and then invaded our land on a large scale.
As a result, the people of Yunzhou suffered and starved to death.
At this time, a pair of immortal lovers in Yunzhou could not bear it. They took the initiative to provide shelter and food and clothing for mortals.
Seeing the starving people getting worse and worse, As more and more people gathered, they used their magic to lead the hungry people to escape into the mountains.
Afterwards, the gods used their magic swords to flatten the mountains and provide shelter; the fairies planted peaches here to provide fairy fruits to satisfy hunger, and the surrounding land was turned into fertile fields by the peach trees.
People then built a city on the vacant land. At that time, the city owner remembered that a hermit had written a "Taoyuan Ji" during the pseudo-Yan Dynasty, so he named this city Taoyuan City, praying that this city could avoid war and live in peace like Taoyuan.
However, the good times did not last long, and the evil demons still found Taoyuan City.
For the sake of all living beings, the gods and fairies joined forces to kill the evil demons, but they were almost dying.
So at the last moment, the gods and fairies turned into a barrier to protect Taoyuan City.
Under the protection of this barrier, foreign enemies could no longer invade.
From then on, the people lived and worked in peace.
The disciples and descendants of the gods and fairies established Taoxian Mansion to manage Taoyuan City.
Time passed, and then the Dagan Dynasty was established. The Supreme Emperor Dagan was moved by the spirit of the two gods and allowed Taoyuan City to govern itself.
After that, Taoyuan City resumed communication with the outside world and held the Ten Thousand Immortals Meeting to share the immortal fruit with the world..."
Gu Xia sat by the window, listening to the storyteller telling the legend of the origin of Taoyuan City while calculating the pattern of flying boats in the sky and patrols of Wuling Guards on the streets outside the window.
The Ten Thousand Immortals Meeting the storyteller mentioned was the Taoxian Festival. He was an ordinary person, so he thought the soul cultivators were immortals.
Gu Xia estimated that the god and the fairy were two innate masters.
The location of Taoyuan City is a flat land with a diameter of tens of thousands of feet. After conversion, the diameter is more than 50 miles.
Such a large open space, first The masters of the first level of the heavenly realm of rebirth/realization cannot be defeated, at least they must reach the Juxuan/Shennian realm.
With a Juxuan/Shennian realm ancestor, it is no wonder that Taoyuan City is so prosperous. It is said that there is also an innate master in the city.
However, this innate master has not appeared for more than a hundred years, and it is possible that he has passed away long ago.
In short, it is a sect with real innate background and its own specialties. It’s just that Taoxian Mansion is much more magnificent and wealthy than Xingxuanmen on the surface.
There are also more masters at the peak of the acquired realm than Xingxuanmen.
Not long after, Gu Xia got up and went to the next place to check it out.
