Stepping onto the deck, the air suddenly became cold and cold.
But Liu Yu only frowned slightly, and then returned to normal without being much affected.
"Snow."
A happy smile appeared on Jiang Qiushui's face, and she looked happily at the soft snow falling in the sky, feeling much more relaxed.
Even the haze of war that shrouded my heart seemed to have dissipated a little.
For many monks who have just established their foundations, this is the first time they have left Qingzhou and Jingzhou and seen different scenery, so they all feel a little novel.
Qingzhou and Jingzhou are still much colder even during the coldest days in winter, and they have not seen heavy snowfall for hundreds of years.
Looking at all this, Liu Yu's eyes were a little confused. This was the first time in his life that he saw heavy snow.
However, he quickly recovered and calmed down the turmoil in his heart.
The white snow was blocked by the silver light curtain of the Cangwu ship, and automatically drifted to both sides, unable to fall into the ship's hull at all.
In this vast white sky, a silver light flashed across the sky as brightly as a star, always moving in one direction with a clear purpose.
Gradually, a small shadow appeared at the end of the line of sight.
It was a city made of white ice crystals!
"Thousand Snow Fairy City."
Liu Yu stared at the city in the distance, and a name appeared in his mind.
Just like there is Wangyue Immortal City on the border of Qingzhou and Tianqiong Immortal City on the border of Jingzhou, the southern border of Cangzhou is also the southernmost border of Chu State, where Qianxue Immortal City also stands.
It stands in the southernmost part of the Chu State, on one of the most critical thoroughfares, and plays an extremely important role. It can be said to be the gateway to the south of the Chu State.
Even due to the unique location of Qianxue Fairy City and the power of Piaoxue Pavilion, it is much more prosperous and powerful than Wangyue City and Tianqiong City.
As the spirit ship flew rapidly through the air, the shadow of Qianxue Immortal City in their sight gradually grew larger, and only then did everyone see its appearance clearly.
The entire wall of Qianxue Immortal City is white. With the eyesight of an immortal cultivator, you can clearly see that the wall is actually made of white ice crystals!
In the ice and snow under the dim light, the "ice wall" showed no sign of melting, and instead looked a bit crystal clear.
Since it can be used as a material for building a city, no one in the Yuanyang Sect would think that this is an ordinary ice crystal.
But it may be the genuine Xuan Bing!
Hundred-year-old black ice is not only very hard, but also takes at least five years to naturally melt when placed in a high-temperature environment. It can be used to refine mid- to low-grade magic weapons or for other purposes.
Placed in such an environment, and supplemented by specially designed formations, its characteristics will be further solidified, and there is no need to worry about being restrained or melted.
From a defense perspective, this kind of design is even better than Wangyue Fairy City.
Its defense against spell attacks is even better than that of Wangyue Fairy City and Sky Vault Fairy City.
Of course, there are also geographical reasons for this.
Qingzhou and Jingzhou are adjacent to the Hengduan Mountains. Not only must we consider attacks by monks, but we must also consider siege by monsters.
Since the demonic beasts and demonic bodies are as powerful as magic weapons and magic weapons, it is destined that two extremely important factors must be taken into consideration when the two fairy cities were built.
War is a major event for a country and the key to survival in a land of life and death, so we must observe it.
Although it has been three or four thousand years since the last time a demonic beast broke out of the Hengduan Mountains and impacted the Qingjing Continent, as a major cultivating sect that rules the continent, the top management cannot but consider this factor.
Cangzhou is located in the hinterland of the Chu Kingdom. Before the fall of Qingzhou, Jing, and other continents, it will not encounter monster attacks at all, so there is no need to consider this factor for the time being.
Therefore, the construction of Qianxue Immortal City is mainly to defend against attacks by monks.
The escape speed of the Cangwu ship is more than ten times that of ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage. It only takes a little more than half a quarter of an hour from Qianxue Immortal City appearing in sight hundreds of miles away to flying within twenty miles of the Immortal City.
In the end, the Cangwu ship quietly stopped at an altitude of ten miles away from Qianxue Fairy City.
The monks patrolling the city wall naturally discovered this extraordinary flying magic weapon at first sight, but they did not panic at all. They seemed to be well prepared.
"But the seniors of Yuanyang Sect and all of you are colleagues?"
"Xu Qiu has met all the seniors!"
"Seniors, please wait a moment. I have notified the elders stationed in Qianxue City. Elders will come to entertain you in person soon."
Soon a person came with a magic weapon, stood on top of the magic weapon, and saluted to the ten golden elixir monks.
The female cultivator named Xu Qiu has an ordinary appearance. She has no makeup and wears a well-trimmed gray robe. Her skin is as white as snow and her figure is curvy. She looks somewhat heroic.
It is very different from many female nuns in Piaoxue Pavilion who have gorgeous dresses and exquisite makeup.
The Cangwu Ship magic weapon has been refined for thousands of years, and it is no longer a secret among the middle and high-level people of the five major sects. As the backbone of Piaoxue Pavilion, Xu Qiu naturally knows it.
Instead of listening to the polite conversation between Xu Qiu and the Jindan elders, Liu Yu turned her eyes and looked at this "city of ice and snow".
Now that the distance was close, he discovered that Qianxue City was actually taller and wider than Wangyue City. It was made entirely of centuries-old black ice, and there were many exquisite patterns and patterns carved on the walls, which looked gorgeous yet still beautiful.
atmosphere.
In comparison, Wangyue City seems much "simple", with nothing on the city walls.
"What a generous move."
Liu Yu sighed in his heart.
As for decorations such as patterns, he doesn't care much, after all, appearance cannot change the essence.
Considering that Piaoxue Pavilion is dominated by female cultivators, who pay particular attention to appearance, it is not surprising that the fairy city was built in such a beautiful appearance.
Without letting the Yuanyang Sect monks wait long, several golden elixir stage spiritual pressure suddenly emerged from Qianxue City. Three female cultivators with mature charm flew to the Cangwu ship and began to negotiate with the golden elixir elders.
It is unknown what the Golden Core monks exchanged. The Foundation Establishment monks stood on the deck and looked at Qianxue City and the ice and snow with some novelty. The novelty of this moment has not worn off yet.
Monks in the Qi refining stage came from far away, leaving deep and shallow footprints on the snow, and forming a short queue in front of the city gate.
I only saw the monks going in, but not the monks coming out. They were not allowed in and out. It seemed that Qianxue City had already been under martial law.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Liu Yu was thoughtful. It seemed that Piaoxue Pavilion had already prepared for this trip.
It doesn't matter whether such an act will arouse the anger of heaven and earth and cause dissatisfaction among many family monks and casual cultivators.
Even if all the casual cultivators and families were added together, they would not be able to shake the status of the five major sects.
Rulers do not need to consider the feelings of the ruled.
After a while, the Jindan monks seemed to have discussed everything.
News came immediately, telling Liu Yu and other foundation-building monks to stay here for two hours, waiting for the monks from the other three sects.
You can go to Qianxue City for a stroll, or you can stay in the Cangwu Ship to rest, but you must not leave the scope of Qianxue City.
Otherwise, he will be regarded as a spy of both good and evil ways, and will be punished as a crime of treason.
At this time, Liu Yu certainly had no intention of going back to meditate. He was so-called quiet and restless, so he thought of going to Qianxue City for a walk to gain some knowledge.
After all the consumption in recent years, there are less than 10,000 spirit stones in the storage bag. I also plan to see if I can buy some Jingyuan Pills and Yangyuan Pills to increase my spiritual stone reserve.
It is not easy to sell in large quantities near the sect, lest a large amount of elixirs flow into the market and attract attention. It is necessary to cover up the quantity every time to avoid mistakes.
But in Qianxue City, where I only stayed for two hours, I had much less worries and could relax a little.
"If you fellow Yuanyang Sect members want to visit Qianxue City, please come with me."
"Now the Immortal City is under martial law and no one is allowed in or out, but everyone from the Yuanyang Sect can come out as long as they show their identity tokens."
Xu Qiu seemed to have received the instruction. He landed on the deck and generously raised his hands and said with a smile.
"Then I'll trouble Fairy Xu."
A monk said politely.
The battle at the Lingshi Mine was fought for the interests of the sect, and casualties were inevitable.
Under the strong pressure of good and evil, the five major sects have already reached a consensus. They are still temporary allies at this time. Naturally, they cannot treat each other coldly and draw swords against each other.
Being able to practice to the foundation-building stage is something that most of the city's foundation-building monks still have.
Even if a close relative died in the hands of monks from the other sect during the battle at the Lingshi Mine, it would not show on his face. At least the superficial peace must be maintained and no confrontation should be made with the senior sect members.
However, Qingzhou and Jingzhou are not bordering each other, so there is much less resentment and friction, and the relationship is naturally less tense.
Many of the foundation-building monks planned to go down to have a look and buy some local resources. Liu Yu and his party were also the same, so they followed the trend and flew down the magic weapon.
Under the leadership of Xu Qiu, a group of monks flew directly over the city wall and landed in the city.
Then they dispersed temporarily and divided into large and small groups, or walked alone in different directions.
"Senior Brother Cui, Junior Brother Yan, Junior Sister Jiang, and Liu want to make more preparations for this battle and see if they can buy a few powerful talismans, so I won't go with you."
"Let's separate here and meet up on the Cangwu ship in two hours."
Liu Yu said with cupped fists.
He wanted to sell the elixir, so naturally he couldn't do it with everyone.
"Senior Brother Liu, feel free to go, I also want to go shopping alone."
Yan Kai looked around and replied immediately after hearing this.
Cui Liang's eyes rolled around, looking at the female monks dressed in different styles, and he agreed.
Every monk has his own privacy, and some cannot share it even with the most intimate Taoist companions. They naturally know this truth and will not violate any taboos.
Liu Yu nodded slightly, turned around and walked in a random direction, and the group of people separated.
After walking a certain distance, Jiang Qiushui shook his lips and chased after Liu Yu, arriving beside him soon.
"Junior sister, what do you mean?"
Liu Yu stared at the latter expressionlessly, showing no emotion or anger.
"Qiu Shui wants to visit Qianxue City with senior brother. I promise not to speak carelessly."
Jiang Qiushui blinked her eyes and said innocently, her narrow and beautiful eyes were clear and clear.
Hearing this, Liu Yu had a headache. Since getting her body, this woman has become more and more clingy, and it seems that she has gradually formed a dependence.
After she established her foundation, her own value increased a lot, so she became more tolerant of this woman. Unexpectedly, she gradually developed this habit.
Seeing this, he frowned slightly, this is not okay.
The reason why he chose Jiang Qiushui in the first place was to help him run the store, and secondly to vent his physical desires. Now it actually affects his own cultivation and preparation. This is absolutely unacceptable.
If you don't have a status, that's it. If you have a status, what's the point?
"Is this woman too tolerant?"
"Looks like it's time for some hammering."
Liu Yu flashed a few thoughts, his face suddenly turned cold and he said in a deep voice:
"Didn't Liu say that he had to make some preparations and have some personal matters to deal with?"
"Could it be that you have turned a deaf ear to my words?"
When Jiang Qiushui heard this, he immediately felt a little flustered on his face.
She understands her position in her heart, and she is not a stupid person, nor is she originally like this.
But some things can never be measured rationally.
After getting some, she wanted to get more, so she instinctively wanted to hold on to the person in front of her.
"But......!"
"Yes, senior brother, Qiu Shui will leave now."
Jiang Qiu Shui instinctively wanted to retort, but when she saw Liu Yu's cold eyes, she felt cold to the bottom of her heart. She woke up instantly and whispered yes with a low eyebrow.
She looked like a wounded little animal at this time, and people couldn't help but promise to take care of her.
But Liu Yu's eyes were still cold and ruthless, and his heart was not moved at all.
Seeing this, the latter could only leave sadly.
This scene was naturally seen by the monks coming and going in the city, but these monks who had not reached the Qi Refining stage only dared to look at it once or twice, and then turned their heads and did not dare to look further.
Just kidding, the excitement of high-level monks is so beautiful to watch?
If you are resented by an angry senior, causing endless trouble, or even losing your life, wouldn't it be like crying without tears?
Liu Yu did not deliberately restrain his spiritual pressure, and glanced coldly at the monk who heard the movement and looked at him.
They turned away in a hurry and were doing their own thing "seriously", and no one dared to look at him.
This look is extremely familiar.
Not intending to show the color of these Qi Refining Stage monks, Liu Yu took a long detour and walked into a remote alley.
When he came out again, he was already wearing a bamboo hat and a black gauze, only revealing a pair of dark pupils, and all his original clothes had been replaced.
This black gauze and bamboo hat were both refined at a considerable cost, and the price is comparable to a fine and top-grade magic weapon, which can block the prying eyes of spiritual consciousness below the golden elixir stage.
After finishing changing his clothes, Liu Yu walked straight towards the east.
The sun rises from the east, representing hope and prosperity.
Although this is just a beautiful meaning, some immortal cultivators strongly believe in the theory of luck. Chu State also has specific customs. Generally, the most prosperous areas in cities are in the east.
Therefore, it is generally not wrong to go eastward.
Only then did Liu Yu have time to look at the scene in Qianxue City.
Although fine snow is still falling in the sky, there are no snowflakes in Qianxue City. There is a formation above the city to isolate the ice and snow.
On the surface, the architectural style is similar, with almost no difference from Wangyue City.
However, some stores directly operated by Piaoxue Pavilion use some colored wood, and the lanterns are mainly red, which looks bright and exquisite.
The monks who came and went all wore thick robes that covered their bodies, and very few monks were bare-chested and backless.
Those who have a lot of money can make their robes from the furs of monster beasts, while those who don't have a lot of money can use ordinary ordinary materials.
