"I'm just a third-level being from the upper clan. I know a little bit about the puppet refining techniques and am somewhat famous in the clan." Jia Tianmu smiled and said lightly.
"That's it. To be able to be so valued by the Jiaochi Clan Elders Council, it seems that Taoist friend's puppetry skills are probably extraordinary." Lin Mo said with a twinkle in his eye.
Hearing Lin Mo's words, Jia Tianmu chuckled and did not answer. Instead, he looked around and said with some worry:
"Senior, it's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Should we leave here first and then talk about other things?"
"Hmph, you make sense. But I never said I wanted to go with you."
"You go your way, and I'll go mine. Your goal is so huge, I don't want to be affected again." Lin Mo said with a cold snort.
Then he turned around, his body flashed with green light, and he seemed to be flying away.
"Wait a minute. Don't you know, senior, that the further you go, the tighter the blockade ahead will be. No matter how good your escape skills are, you may not be able to leave this place easily."
"But I know a secret teleportation circle that can directly leave the area occupied by the Jiao Chi tribe." Jia Tianmu said in a hurry, fearing that Lin Mo would leave.
"You're not going to lie about the teleportation array, are you?" Lin Mo restrained his aura and turned back to ask, with a look of surprise on his face.
"Senior, don't worry. This teleportation array is a secret passage specially set up by our Tianyun Thirteen Clan for special personnel. You can tell the authenticity at a glance."
"If what I say is untrue, I am willing to accept senior's punishment." Jia Tianmu said with a smile.
Lin Mo thought for a while after listening.
The patrols of the Jiao Chi tribe are becoming more and more frequent, and even silver war boats appear.
He had no assurance of safe passage through these blockades.
It would be safer if there is a teleportation array and you can leave directly.
Moreover, he is not very interested in the Jiaochi Clan, but he has some expectations for the Thirteen Tianyun Clan.
Maybe we can use their strength.
After thinking about it, Lin Mo nodded and said in a gentle tone:
"Okay, in that case, I will follow fellow Taoist's arrangements. Please ask fellow Taoist A to lead the way." He became polite.
Jia Tianmu was happy and grateful after hearing this.
His puppet's spiritual power was exhausted, and it was impossible for him, a third-level existence from the upper clan, to sneak into the teleportation array.
So Jia Tianmu retrieved the two captured puppets, took the human puppets with him, and flew towards the sky with Lin Mo.
Golden light and green light intertwined, and after a few flashes, they disappeared without a trace in the horizon.
A huge city was shrouded in pale yellow light, with hundreds of silver war boats of different sizes suspended around it.
These war boats vary in size, some are as small as more than a thousand feet, and some are as large as more than ten thousand feet. They are like small towns, towering over the city.
Inside the largest war boat, more than a dozen Xuanxu-level beings from the Jiao Chi tribe stood on the top of a loft-like building, staring at the scene of the giant city.
And sitting on the chair behind them was a young woman with silver-white skin and purple-gold eyes.
Some of these people were whispering, and some were pointing at the giant city below.
The young woman looked thoughtful, as if she was thinking about something.
Suddenly, a red light flashed at the entrance to the attic and quickly flew towards the young woman.
She raised her eyebrows slightly and waved towards the red light with one hand.
The red light turned into a ball of red flame and slowly descended.
The woman gently held the flame, and her spiritual consciousness blended into it.
"Such a thing actually happened. What a bunch of incompetent people."
The woman's face darkened and she said coldly.
When the others heard this, their hearts trembled, they stopped talking and turned to the woman.
"Your Majesty, what happened to make you so unhappy?" A slightly hunchbacked man asked cautiously.
"Humph, a group of seventh- and eighth-level clansmen went to look for Jia Tianmu. As a result, one group was completely wiped out, and the other group couldn't even start teleportation."
Purple light flashed in the woman's eyes, showing anger.
"Although that Jia Tianmu is proficient in puppetry, he is only a middle-ranking member of the upper clan. How could he be destroyed by pursuers of the same level?"
Another woman with a long and narrow face was a little unbelievable after hearing this.
"According to the survivors, it was not Jia Tianmu who did it, but someone else." The young woman shook her head.
"Are there other saints in this area besides Hengshui City in front of us?" The man who spoke at the beginning asked in surprise.
"It's not a combined-level existence, but a seventh-level superior clan. That's why I said, these people are really a bunch of trash, and they will perish at the hands of the same level."
Purple light flashed in the woman's eyes, and her voice was cold.
Seeing the woman's anger, the others fell silent and did not dare to interrupt without permission.
"Immediately send a message to the envoys and inform them of the location of the incident."
"Let them be responsible for the affairs of Jia Tianmu from now on, and we will concentrate on attacking Hengshui City in front of us." The woman's tone was cold, and she ordered word for word.
"But Tu Envoy and the others already have other tasks, so I'm afraid they don't want to come." One person said carefully.
"Just tell them that the person who did it is the person they wanted to stop."
"They will take the initiative to take over the matter." The woman glanced at the questioner lightly and said.
"It turns out that the person Tu Envoy was looking for saved Jia Tianmu." Everyone looked at each other in surprise.
"Okay, that's it."
"The focus now is to capture the city in front of us within three days."
"Once this city is captured, Jinjia City will become an isolated city, no different than if it fell into our hands. Act as planned." The woman ordered coldly.
"Yes." Other high-ranking beings from the Jiaochi Tribe bowed one after another and responded respectfully.
These people immediately left the attic and flew back to the huge warships they were responsible for.
An hour later, the woman gave an order, and the auras on the surface of all the war boats flashed and made a deafening roar.
Countless horned warriors, two-headed giant eagles, and hundreds of feathered dragons that had been seen before poured out from each war boat and formed a neat queue in the air, surrounding the giant city.
After the Jiaochi army surged out, colorful puppets also flew out of the war boat.
Most of these puppets are human-shaped, some are the same size as ordinary people, and some are more than ten feet tall.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There are only three beast puppets in it, but each one is more than a hundred feet tall.
One looks like a giant turtle, but it has three heads and its shell is covered with thick spikes.
The other has the head of a tiger and the body of an ape, with huge golden antlers on its head.
The third one looks like a giant flying ant puppet.
Not only is it the largest in size, but its whole body is as white as sparkling as a spar.
As soon as they saw such a large-scale attack by the Jiaochi people, the light in the giant city immediately became lively.
Through the huge light mask, you can vaguely see the activation of magic arrays in many places in the city. Immediately afterwards, thick light pillars ejected from the magic circle and were quickly injected into the high-altitude light mask.
The light mask that originally seemed to be solid became more glittering and translucent, and the runes on it poured out like a swarm.
From some buildings in the giant city, countless figures flew out, and many people immediately flew towards the illuminated magic circles using the escape light.
"Start attacking!" The woman surnamed Yin was on a huge war boat. Shortly after giving the order, the three largest puppet beasts took the lead in launching the attack.
I saw the strange light flashing on the giant turtle's shell, and countless thick thorns shot out instantly.
The monster with the head of a tiger and the body of an ape opened its mouth wide and spit out a golden beam of light, which seemed to contain the power of wind and thunder.
The crystal-like giant ant puppet sprayed out a dense green mist and rolled forward.
Following the attack of the three-headed puppet beasts, spiritual light emitted from the bottom of all the war boats at the same time, and beams of light shot out overwhelmingly.
In an instant, the roar was deafening, like a stormy sea, or like thunder from the sky.
In the heart of a huge mountain, in a dim palace, it was completely dark, and everything in the palace could not be seen clearly. It was silent, as if no one had been here for countless years.
But after a short moment, a white light suddenly flashed in the hall, and a magic circle several feet in size suddenly appeared in the center of the hall.
The magic circle flashed with light and made a low buzzing sound.
Then, with a flash of light, two blurry figures emerged from the magic circle.
One of them was wearing a green robe, young and beautiful, and the other had messy hair, covering half of his face.
It was Lin Mo and Jia Tianmu.
"This place is very secret. It is a teleportation circle built by our Eternal Clan. It must not be used until in times of crisis."
"There are very few people who know about this place. It is far away from the area occupied by the Jiaochi clan, and it is only a few days away from Yuncheng, the third largest city of our Thirteen Tianyun clans." Jia Tianmu looked around and explained with a smile.
Then, he reached out and made a move, and a spell flew to a crystal stone inlaid on the wall of the nearby palace.
Suddenly, the entire hall shone with spiritual light, and more than a dozen places on the surrounding walls of the hall lit up at the same time, illuminating the entire hall clearly.
Lin Mo also glanced at it and found that the hall was only about a hundred feet in size and was built with blue and white boulders. It looked ordinary, but the inside was extremely clean and spotless.
He nodded and said calmly:
"Well, it seems that no one has been here for a long time."
"But how far is it from the Cloud City mentioned by fellow Taoists? Is this city very famous? I heard that the great elder of your Eternal Clan is also there."
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Lin also knows about this, don't worry. Yuncheng is only half a month away from here, and it is the third largest city among the thirteen Tianyun clans."
"The place where the city was built is very unique and well-known. It is also the largest city closest to the direction of the Jiao Chi tribe's attack."
"Once the war breaks out, Yuncheng is likely to become the core stronghold of our Tianyun clan." Jia Tianmu said with a smile.
"Okay. That's just right. I need a big city and have some things to do." Lin Mo responded calmly.
"I have a temporary cave in Yuncheng, and I can be considered a half-landlord."
"If you have any questions, fellow Taoist, feel free to come to me. It's hard to talk about big things, but I can still help with small things." Jia Tianmu said with a smile on his face.
Having experienced Lin Mo easily killing several beings of the same level, Jia Tianmu naturally knows that he is not an ordinary superior clan member."
"Although Jia Tianmu has escaped from danger and has a special status in the Eternal Clan, he still wants to win over and befriend Lin Mo.
"Thank you for your kindness. Maybe I will need your help in the future."
Lin Mo smiled slightly and did not refuse the other party's kindness.
"Today's Cloud City may not be easy for people outside the thirteen tribes to enter."
"Especially for new faces like Brother Lin, it's even more troublesome."
"But I witnessed with my own eyes your killing of beings of the same level as the Jiao Chi Clan, so I can vouch for you."
"But having said that, how about Brother Lin joining our Eternal Clan directly and serving as a guest minister?"
"You can also play a role in the clan. I can introduce you to the clan elders."
"With your ability, you will definitely be reused."
"And as a guest of this clan, you will get a lot of benefits, and it will be easier to do things in the whole Tianyun." Jia Tianmu blinked and said softly.
"Thank you for your suggestion, but I'm not sure how long I will stay in Tianyun. Let's talk about this later." Lin Mo replied after pondering for a moment.
"Okay, we'll talk about it later. Let's go to Yuncheng first. I have a few good friends in the city, and I can introduce them to you then." Jia Tianmu said enthusiastically.
Lin Mo moved slightly, but just nodded without saying anything more.
So, the two of them walked out of the teleportation array and went straight to the entrance of the hall.
Pushing open the door, there is a bluestone passage outside, spiraling up.
Lin Mo and Jia Tianmu turned into two rays of light and flew into the passage in a flash.
After a moment, a ball of white light and a green rainbow shot out from the mountainside and flew into the distance.
"This is Yuncheng." Lin Mo was in the green light, looking up at the distant sky, with a strange look on his face.
"Yes, Cloud City deserves its name. In the spiritual world, it is second only to the Island in the Sky and is the second place to live that can be suspended in the air."
"Although it cannot float with the wind like the Sky Island, it can also rise and fall freely as the seasons change."
Jia Tianmu, standing next to Lin Mo, picked up the beard on his chin and replied proudly.
At this moment, the two of them were standing on the top of a hill. Hundreds of miles away in the sky, there stood a giant, motionless city.
The city is suspended in the sky tens of thousands of feet above the ground, shrouded in white clouds and covered in white buildings of unknown materials.
This city is located at such a high altitude, and coupled with its huge size, people who see it for the first time can't help but be surprised.
Another eye-catching place is the dozen or so white and unusually huge spheres surrounding the giant city, which don't seem too big from a distance.
But if you look closely, you can see that they are huge in diameter.
As for the specific number of these spheres, Lin Mo could not make an accurate judgment because he could only see one side of Yuncheng.
"What are those?" Lin Mo couldn't help but ask after being surprised, pointing at the spheres.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, those are the guards of Yuncheng."
"They are sophisticated works jointly created by our Eternal Clan and the Stone Cocoon Clan, and they are an important part of Cloud City's defense."
"Fellow Daoist Lin can find out the specific situation by just entering Yuncheng and making some inquiries. Haha, I won't spoil it." Jia Tianmu said with a mysterious smile.
Lin Mo was speechless after hearing this.
But he did not continue to ask, but with curiosity about the city, he turned into a blue light and rose into the sky.
