Time passed slowly, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye, and we finally entered the sphere of influence of the Nine-Nation Alliance.
At this time, Mo Juren suddenly looked towards the mountains passing rapidly below, and something strange suddenly flashed in his eyes. If he remembered correctly, this should be the Beiliang Kingdom, and after the Battle of Yue Kingdom, the six factions moved here.
at.
Compared with the Yue Kingdom, this place is naturally far inferior, both in terms of resources and environment. Especially the latter, as a member of the Nine-Nation Alliance, it is necessary to go south to resist the invasion of the Mulan tribe.
Obligation, the difficulties involved can be imagined.
"Six sects!" Thinking of all the things in the past, Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh. The reason why he was defeated so quickly in the past was also because of the stabbing in the back by Lingshou Mountain. Although times have changed, the hatred may not be so easy to fade away.
of.
Thinking of this, I suddenly cursed in my heart. I was really careless. I ignored this and took a detour if I knew it.
He quickly sent a message to Xiaojin, asking him to speed up so that he could leave the territory of Beiliang Kingdom earlier. Fortunately, everything was just a false alarm, and the journey was very peaceful and no accidents were encountered.
Many days later, over a mountain range, Mo Juren finally stopped. Looking into the distance, he saw a huge city standing at the end of his sight.
"Khotan City!" Looking at the three huge inscriptions above the city gate, Mo Juren murmured. It was his first time to come to this city, but he had already heard of its fame.
This city is considered the largest city within the Nine Nations Alliance's sphere of influence. Even in the entire Tiannan, its size can definitely be ranked among the top five.
What is even more special is that this is the headquarters of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, and it is the only special city in Tiannan that is purely composed of monks. The people living in it, regardless of age or sex, are all monks with spiritual roots.<
/p>
The reason why Mo Juren did not go to Fengyuan Country immediately was because he not only wanted to see this famous city, but also planned to stay for a few days to inquire about the current situation.
After all, Fengyuan Country is on the border, and the situation is still unknown. With his cautious character, it is naturally impossible for him to enter rashly without knowing anything.
And Tiantian City is definitely the most suitable place to inquire about information.
He stretched out his hand and patted Xiaojin's back, and the latter suddenly screamed reluctantly.
"Don't be so arrogant, this is not a good place, and you can't allow yourself to mess around." Mo Juren scolded him with a straight face. He didn't say anything nonsense. As the headquarters of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, there are only middle-stage Nascent Soul monks in the city.
There are only six or seven of them, who dares to make a mistake here?
Xiao Jin suddenly withered, and then turned into a golden light and flew back into the spirit beast bag.
"I'll just feel aggrieved for a while, and then I'll let you out after I leave." Patting the spirit beast bag, Mo Juren did not hesitate, and immediately took up the Escape Light and flew forward.
As the largest city in the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, Tiantian City is naturally not small in size, with a radius of more than a hundred miles. However, it is nothing more than that. He has been to the Sea of Stars many times and naturally he will not show any surprise.
Tianxing City is the real giant. Compared with it, the city in front of you is really nothing.
Mo Juren blended into the group entering the city with a normal expression. Because he deliberately restrained his cultivation, he did not attract any attention. After a while, he was near the city gate.
Standing at the door were some law enforcement monks from the Nine Nations Alliance, each of them fully armed. Unfortunately, they were only low-level disciples with low cultivation levels, and it was impossible to notice anything strange about him.
After crossing the huge city gate that was more than ten feet high, we finally entered the city. What we saw were long bluestone streets, densely distributed like spider webs. A large number of stone houses were built on both sides of the streets, and countless monks came in and out.
, a bustling and lively scene.
Looking around for a while, there was nothing but monks coming and going. He couldn't help shaking his head secretly. Compared with the big cities in Luan Xinghai, the service level here was so far behind that it was difficult to find a guide.
Then I thought about it, it's normal. They are all monks, and everyone has their eyes high. Who would be willing to do what seems to be a 'mean' occupation for a few spiritual stones?
Without paying too much attention, he turned around and walked towards one of the widest streets. Without the introduction of the guide, he had no choice but to come by himself. Fortunately, he had plenty of time, so he was not in a hurry, so he just took the opportunity to take a stroll.
Find the right place.
As the headquarters of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, Tiantian City has a good business scale. There are a large number of shops on both sides of the road, which basically cover all the types that the monks need.
After walking along the street for a while, I suddenly stopped in front of a two-story building somewhere.
"Bai Yue Tower"
After taking a look at the plaque on the door, Mo Juren couldn't help but feel moved in his heart and stepped in.
This is a small shop, somewhat deserted inside, and there are even fewer customers. Except for him who just walked in, there is only a man and a woman standing in front of the counter, whispering something with a clerk.
The moment he saw the two of them, Mo Juren was startled.
What a coincidence, they are two acquaintances!
"Welcome to our store, senior. What information do you need?" An old man who looked like a shopkeeper suddenly walked out from behind the counter and greeted him very respectfully.
Mo Juren was a little surprised. His cultivation was a cover-up. How could a monk in the early stage of foundation building know that he was a senior? Could it be that he had some kind of magic weapon to test his cultivation?
"Do you have a map of Fengyuan Country? The more detailed the better." He did have a map of the Nine Nations Alliance, but it was not detailed enough. He wanted to add one when he entered here. Bai Yue Tower is a company that specializes in data and information.
's store.
"Of course there is. Senior, please sit down and wait for a moment. I'll go get it now." The shopkeeper nodded slightly, then turned and walked towards the counter.
Mo Juren did not sit down immediately, but looked directly at the two people in front of him. Obviously, the situation just now attracted their attention, and they were looking at him in shock.
"Why, we haven't seen each other for many years, and the two fellow Taoists don't recognize Mo?" Mo Juren smiled and took the initiative to say hello.
"Are you really Mo...Senior Mo?" The surprise in the man's eyes still did not dissipate, and he asked cautiously. The petite woman beside her also had her eyes wide open, and a hint of complexity flashed vaguely.
"Mo's appearance shouldn't have changed much. You two won't forget it so quickly." Mo Juren laughed, then raised his hand to signal,
"If you don't care about Mo's identity, you two might as well sit down and talk."
"Since Senior Mo invites me, it's better to be respectful than to obey." The man also regained his composure, and immediately bowed his hands, and then pulled the hesitant woman and took a few steps closer to do it.
These two people are none other than Liu Jing and Zhong Weiniang from Huang Maple Valley. Although they are not close friends, they are familiar with each other, especially the experience of fighting side by side in Yue Jing City, which is still vivid in their minds.
It was precisely because of Mo Juren that Liu Jing, who should have fallen, escaped death. Now he is still alive and well, and his cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building.
Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh, this could be regarded as indirectly changing the fate of the two people. Moreover, seeing that Zhong Weiniang was dressed like a mature woman at the moment, she must be together.
"Congratulations to Senior Mo. It's really admirable to be able to break through to the core formation stage so quickly." Liu Jing cupped his hand again, but his tone was neither humble nor overbearing.
"Has Mo's little fame spread to the Nine Nations Alliance?"
"It might not be true for others, but senior said otherwise. Basically, it is spread among all the major forces, calling you a shocking genius that comes only once in a thousand years in Tiannan..." Liu Jing did not hide anything and answered directly.
At that time, he didn't know what happened two months ago, otherwise he would definitely be even more shocked.
"That's really an honor." Mo Juren smiled, not paying attention to these compliments, and started chatting with the two of them.
When old friends met, there were still many topics in common between the two parties, especially since although he was already a senior in the pill-forming stage, he had no airs about him, which immediately made the two of them feel good about each other.
As for the Yellow Maple Valley, or the bad blood between the six sects and Spirit Beast Mountain, the two of them selectively forgot about it. On the one hand, the other party was strong, and on the other hand, the matter was decided by the higher-ups. They were just low-level disciples at the beginning.
Where is the master?
"Senior, do you remember Qiaoqian?" Suddenly, Zhong Weiniang seemed to have thought of something and asked suddenly.
"Miss Chen?" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised, Chen Qiaoqian? He knew her so well, why did she suddenly mention her?
"For some reasons, Qiaoqian became a disciple of the Jiqing Sect and became a direct disciple of Qingzhen Zhen. The Jiqing Sect has now become attached to your sect and is considered a family. With the influence of the previous generation in the Yuling Sect, I hope that it will be able to do so in the future
Take care of me." Zhong Weiniang obviously didn't know much, otherwise she wouldn't have made this unnecessary reminder.
Mo Juren was a little speechless. As for Chen Qiaoqian, he had no time to hide, so how could he get in touch with her? What's more, since the other party had such a big backer as Qingzhen, he didn't need to worry about it.
Of course, he didn’t explain anything, he just smiled and replied:
"It's really fate that this happened. I will go and take a look when I have free time in the future."
"Qiaoqian admires her senior very much. When she came back, she chatted with me before and mentioned her situation more than once." Zhong Weiniang was obviously thinking about building connections for her best friend, and she tried her best to 'bring them together' in her words.
However, when he heard this, Mo Juren looked startled.
You admire him, don't you? He still remembers the other person's cold appearance the last time he met him. Is it possible that he was just pretending? Or is it the 'Three Lives Mark' that played a role?
I have to say that the other party’s acting skills are pretty good. At least the last time we met, he didn’t see anything unusual.
Time passed quickly, and they chatted for nearly half an hour before they knew it. Liu Jing also realized that it was getting late, and immediately said goodbye.
After the two of them left the shop, the shopkeeper hurriedly walked to the front and said:
"It turns out it's Senior Mo from the Yuling Sect. I've admired his name for a long time. I just didn't treat you well. I hope you won't blame me if I'm rude."
"It's okay." Mo Juren naturally didn't care about this and asked directly,
"Where is what I want?"
"It has been prepared for you a long time ago." The shopkeeper handed over a blue jade slip and immediately began to introduce it.
"This is the most detailed map in our store. Not only Fengyuan Country, but also the entire Nine Nations Alliance is included. Even some rare areas are also recorded."
"Oh?" After hearing this, Mo Juren's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately used his spiritual consciousness to check the jade slip. A moment later, when he took back his spiritual consciousness, a look of extreme satisfaction appeared on his face.
Smile.
"Very good, how many spirit stones?"
"Forget it about the spirit stones." The shopkeeper did not give a price, but continued,
"Senior, it is our honor to come to our store. How can I accept your spiritual stone? This map is not a rare thing. It should be regarded as a meeting gift for you."
"You will not be rewarded for your efforts, so you should set a price. Otherwise, Mo will have to buy it from other stores." Free is the most expensive. Mo Juren, who has lived in two generations, knows this very well. Naturally,
I will not take advantage of the other party.
"This..." The shopkeeper's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect the other party to be so cautious. Seeing the other party's determined expression, he said helplessly,
"In that case, please give me three hundred spirit stones."
"Thank you." The three hundred spirit stones were also not expensive. The other party was obviously showing goodwill by offering such a price. Mo Juren did not refuse the other party this time, and paid the spirit stones generously.
And go.
……
After leaving Baiyue Tower, Mo Juren continued to move forward, and did not stop again until he reached a restaurant.
The restaurant has always been the most well-informed place, so he did not hesitate and immediately entered the lobby on the first floor.
Looking at the dense crowd of diners talking around him, Mo Juren chose a corner seat by the window with an unchanging expression.
He ordered a pot of spiritual tea and sipped it while listening to the discussions around him. With his hearing, it was very simple and effortless to distinguish the most useful information. And through analysis, he also understood the current situation of the Nine Kingdoms.
The situation between the Alliance and the Mulan people has a clearer understanding.
For now, the relationship between the two sides is relatively peaceful. Although there are some small-scale fightings from time to time, there are no signs of a large-scale war.
Mo Juren couldn't help but frown slightly. If he remembered correctly, according to the original destiny line, another large-scale invasion by the Mulan people should not be far away.
As a result, he must seize the time to complete his own affairs. Otherwise, once the war breaks out, the situation he will face will become complicated in an instant.
Thinking of this, he stopped delaying and left immediately after paying the spiritual stones.
Half a month passed again, and Mo Juren’s envoy Xiao Jin crossed the border of Yu State and finally entered the territory of Fengyuan State.
Compared with other countries, Fengyuan Country is obviously a little special. Perhaps because it is close to the frontline battlefield, the whole country is filled with a chilling atmosphere.
"Something's wrong!" Somewhere in the air, Mo Juren frowned. Although it seemed normal, a faint intuition in his heart told him that something big might happen.
"We must seize the time!" He put away his thoughts and took out the map again to investigate carefully. The destination he wanted to go to this time was the 'Tian Tomb Valley', which is located deep in the 'Yunqin Mountains' in the eastern region of Fengyuan Country.<
/p>
I roughly estimated the distance. If I were to fly at full speed at Xiaojin's speed, it should be almost the same in a few days.
"We have to rush there as soon as possible, and you will have to work hard next." After telling Xiaojin the specific information, the latter immediately let out a soft cry and increased the speed to the extreme.
Three days later, when he finally flew to the eastern region, over a mountain range, Xiao Jin suddenly stopped.
