Gu Yun led Bai Shi and followed Li Jinyang towards Jingyang County. Soon, the two of them arrived at the city gate. Two long queues of people lined up on both sides of the city gate, and there were some guards guarding the city in front.
Gu Yun looked at the tall city gate in front of him. There was a plaque on it with three majestic golden characters of Jingyang County. Each gate was three feet high, three feet wide and two feet thick.
He secretly estimated that if he attacked with all his strength, he should be able to blow down the two doors in two moves.
Gu Yun looked at the surrounding city walls again. They were five feet high and more than a foot thick, completely surrounding this small town.
However, in Gu Yun's eyes, these should have no effect on cultivators. I'm afraid those masters could knock down the city wall with just two moves.
Seeing Gu Yun staring at the city wall in a daze, Li Jinyang said from the side, "Mr. Gu, don't underestimate this city wall. It is blessed by formations. Even if a master in the Mahayana period wants to destroy it, it is not an easy task. Moreover,
There is also a city defense formation in the city. Once attacked, the city defense formation will automatically open. As long as the spiritual stones continue, even the Mahayana masters will be helpless.
Gu Yun was secretly stunned when he heard that to use formations to bless a city, the crystal stones deployed in the formation would probably have to be weighed by the kilogram. He is really not an ordinary wealthy person. "Brother Li, does every city have one?"
There is such a formation blessing.”
"Haha, that's not the case. They are only found in some cities on the border. They are mainly to prevent someone from invading the empire." Li Jinyang chuckled.
"Invasion, will there be another invasion in the empire?" Gu Yun asked puzzledly.
"Originally there was no such thing, but in the past few hundred years, every hundred years, a group of strange people would come from the sea and want to invade the empire. Although they would be killed by the empire every time, the cultivators of the empire would pursue them.
I can’t see them. I don’t know where their base camp is.”
"What kind of strange method is there for a strange person?" Gu Yun asked.
"All of these people have blue eyes and blond hair, very fair skin, and they talk in a gibbering manner. Their attack methods are different from ours.
Their cultivators are divided into two types, one is called warriors, who usually use big swords and mainly rely on physical body and sword energy to attack, and those who practice are called fighting spirit.
The other type is called a mage, who uses a kind of magic staff. When attacking, he also chirps for a while, and then sends out a bunch of fireballs, ice cones and other attacks. The practice is called magic."
After hearing Gu Yun's question, Li Jinyang explained that these things were not considered hidden things in the entire empire.
"Oh, there are actually people like this. Then why can't the empire hunt them down every time they defeat them?" Gu Yun asked again curiously.
"Oh, don't mention it. Every time this group of people is defeated, they quickly escape to the west by boat. The empire has also sent people to pursue them, but they can pass through the sea of death. There is nothing the cultivators of the empire can do.
”.
Li Jinyang sighed, his tone quite helpless.
"Sea of Death, what place is that?" Gu Yun asked puzzledly.
"That place is shrouded in white mist all year round. As soon as a cultivator enters, he will be completely disoriented. The most terrifying thing is that inside there are often huge waves, thunder and lightning, and strong winds. As soon as a cultivator enters, he will be completely disoriented.
In three seconds there will be no bones left.
A dozen masters from the Mahayana period once entered it, but never came out. Later, some masters also went in, but in the end there was no news again. After that, it became a forbidden place.
But those Westerners didn't know what method they used, and they were able to go back and forth freely from there." Li Jinyang was frightened for a while when he talked about that place, and then he looked confused again.
After hearing this, Gu Yun finally understood that when the Dragon God said to be careful about people from the West, he was probably referring to these people, but he couldn't understand why these people would let the Dragon God remind him to be careful. It seems that things are not that simple.
right.
After he couldn't figure it out, Gu Yun didn't waste any more time on it. Anyway, with his current strength, it was useless to figure it out.
The two came to the city gate, and Gu Yun saw that those who entered the city, each one who had not reached the golden elixir stage, had to hand over a spiritual stone like the one Gu Yun found from the three big men before they could enter the city.
Those in the Golden Core stage can enter without paying any fees. Gu Yun looked at Li Jinyang with a puzzled look.
Seeing Gu Yun like this made him more convinced that Gu Yun was a newly born chick, but this was also true.
"This is the rule of the empire. Cultivators who have reached the golden elixir stage can enter the city for free. Those who have not reached this level must pay an entrance fee for a low-grade spiritual stone, and they must not stay in the city for more than one month."
After hearing this, Gu Yun was speechless for a while. No wonder the people in the town could only stay in that small town for the rest of their lives. They couldn't even enter the city without spiritual stones. It was also difficult for an ordinary cultivator to obtain spiritual stones. Spiritual stones were basically
Xanadu is controlled by the empire and the sects.
It seems that if you don’t have strength, you really can’t do anything in this world.
Li Jinyang led Gu Yun through two long lines of people. The guard guarding the gate was about to intercept him. Li Jinyang threw a token to the guard captain guarding the city gate. Gu Yun took a look and saw that each of these guards had gold.
The cultivation level is at the Dan stage, but the squad leader is at the Nascent Soul stage.
It seems that cultivators at the Golden Core stage are considered to be at the lowest level in the empire. Seeing the token in his hand, the captain immediately led the entire team to kneel down and said "Lord City Lord".
"Yes" responded, Li Jinyang took back the token from the squad leader, and then accompanied Gu Yun into the city.
The guards watched the two people enter the city. At the same time, they also secretly guessed Gu Yun's identity. It was definitely not an easy person for the city lord to accompany him.
After hearing the words of the guards, Gu Yun couldn't help but pause for a moment, thinking that he and this city lord were really destined. He killed his son and his subordinates, but rescued him and followed them home.
I don't know if this is the legendary self-inflicted trap. If he had known it earlier, Gu Yun might have made up for it at that time. Killing all possible threats is the best way.
But now he can only take one step at a time. If he really takes action, Gu Yun is not very afraid. If he can't fight, he can still escape. Besides, whether people know it is another matter.
"It turns out that Brother Li is still the lord of the city. I was disrespectful just now." Gu Yun said to Li Jinyang, cupping his hands.
"How can a small lord of a county and city compare with Mr. Gu? With Mr. Gu's medical skills, even His Majesty the Empire will have to be polite when he sees you."
"Oh, there is such a thing." Gu Yun was a little surprised.
Li Jinyang smiled and said: "It's no wonder Mr. Gu doesn't know that the status of medical practitioners in the entire empire is very high."
During the subsequent chat, Gu Yun realized what status he, a medical cultivator in the realm of rejuvenation, had in this empire.
At first, the status of healers in the empire was not what it is now. It was only later due to the invasion of the West that people in the empire discovered the role of healers in war.
A medical cultivator in the early stage of rejuvenation can release a large-scale healing spell to revive a thousand seriously injured cultivators in the out-of-body stage. They can release such large-scale spells at least three times a day, if they have the support of elixirs. It can even reach more than ten times.
In the middle and later stages, this effect becomes even more significant. Later-stage healers can restore a thousand combined-stage practitioners at a time, and can release six such large-scale spells without the support of elixirs.
This gave them a transcendent status in the empire, and everyone in the empire treated the practitioners with respect when they saw them.
As a result, the Medical God Sect has transformed from a first-class sect into a super sect in just a hundred years.
The two of them walked and chatted, and soon passed through the wide streets and arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. This is a very impressive building, six feet high, with two red lacquered doors opened.
There are even more carved beams and painted pillars inside, which are beautifully decorated and magnificent.
Li Jinyang took Gu Yun to the hall and sat down. Immediately, a young waitress served him tea. Gu Yun looked at this equally gorgeous hall and couldn't help cursing that this guy was really extravagant.
But he said: "Brother Li's mansion is really magnificent."
"Haha, sir, what are you talking about? I'm just a humble person, so I can't get into my eyes." I said this, but I felt a little proud in my heart.
After that, Gu Yun asked some more things about the Medical God Sect, and Li Jinyang also explained it to him.
Only then did Gu Yun realize that the place he was in was in the southwest corner of the empire and belonged to the border area, while the Medical God Sect was in the imperial capital of the empire and belonged to the northeast corner of the empire.
It's still tens of millions of miles away from here. Even if a cultivator in the integration stage flies with his sword at full strength, it will take at least a few days to arrive. Gu Yun thought in his heart that he didn't know how long his wings would fly. long time.
After the two chatted for a while, Li Jinyang arranged Gu Yun into a guest room and went to recuperate. Gu Yun also returned to the room and started practicing, and then placed a small warning formation at the door.
Gu Yun returned to the Dragon God Ring, told Madman Thief about what happened today, and asked him what to do. Madman Thief replied with five words, and he had to decide what to do, which made Gu Yun very depressed.
I closed the door and went to the practice room to practice.
It has to be said that in this Dragon God Ring, only this training room is the most helpful to Gu Yun. Although the various spiritual fruits outside are rare treasures, Gu Yun has just started to practice alchemy, so naturally he can only watch. With.
However, the practice room can be used for ten days a day, which undoubtedly makes Gu Yun a lot more relaxed. Otherwise, just practicing these various exercises would be enough for Gu Yun, and he would not be able to achieve anything.
After all, if there is not enough time, no matter how good the skills are, no matter how high the talent is, it will only make him half a bucket of water, not to mention the alchemy and formations that require more time to understand, and now these problems They have all been solved by this practice room.
This time, Gu Yun stayed in the practice room for more than ten days and was finally awakened by the early warning formation outside.
He immediately came out of the ring, opened the door, and saw Li Jinyang standing at the door. Gu Yun took a look and found that Li Jinyang, who was still ill yesterday, had recovered 80% today. He thought this guy should have a lot of good pills.
ah.
Seeing Gu Yun come out of the room, Li Jinyang immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Gu, thanks to your rescue yesterday, I was able to save my life. I am very grateful."
I have collected a small amount over the years, and this time I want to invite Mr. Gu to come to my collection room to select one or two things that suit you, as a way of repaying your great kindness. Mr. Wan Wang, please do not refuse."
After hearing what he said, Gu Yun could only follow him towards his collection room and came to this collection room of more than thirty square meters.
Gu Yun glanced at it and found that on the two rows of shelves on both sides, there were some century-old or thousand-year-old herbs on one side, filling the entire three-story shelf, while on the other side there were flying swords and magic weapons, also placed on two floors, among which most of them were
Some of them are at the treasure level, and only a few are spiritual weapons.
Gu Yun's eyes paused for a moment on the magic weapon shelf and then moved away, staring directly at the elixir shelf. This was what he wanted.
At this time, Li Jinyang also closed the secret room door, walked up to Gu Yun and said, "Mr. Gu, do you think my collection is pretty good?"
Gu Yun nodded and said, "Yes, Brother Li's collection is very rich."
"Then I don't know if Mr. Gu has any plans to add some more collections here."
At this time, Li Jinyang's sinister voice sounded in his ears, and Gu Yun knew that he had been fooled.
Turning his head, Gu Yun said to Li Jinyang: "Brother Li is just joking. I'm so stupid. How could there be anything that Brother Li would like?"
"Hahahaha, boy, don't pretend to be like me. The bracelet on your hand is the Qiankun Bracelet. It's much better than the one on my hand. It should be a top-grade spiritual weapon. You said it's nothing good. Even if it's true.
No, but your essence and blood are also very attractive to me.
Tsk tsk, the essence and blood of the rejuvenation realm medical practitioner can at least improve my cultivation level to a higher level." Li Jinyang laughed and said to Gu Yun.
Gu Yun didn't expect this guy to have such a vicious vision. He had already added a hidden spirit formation to the bracelet. Now the bracelet looked like an ordinary Qiankun bracelet, but he didn't expect that this guy would still notice it.
Moreover, this guy also had the skill of absorbing human essence and blood to increase his cultivation, so he said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect you to have such evil skills as sucking human essence and blood."
"Evil Kung Fu? Haha, boy, there is nothing evil or not evil in this world. It is right to make yourself live a better life.
I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. My cultivation level has been achieved by absorbing the essence and blood of many people. Otherwise, you would think that I could reach the integration stage so quickly.
Moreover, there is a person who is in the realm of a doctor, and he can actually stand up to two out-of-body cultivators. This made me fall in love with the essence and blood of your medical cultivators.
It's just that those guys always bring a large group of guards with them when they go out, so I don't have a chance to take action. I didn't expect you to come to my door automatically.
You didn’t bring a guard with you? Didn’t your master tell you that it’s very dangerous outside?” After hearing Gu Yun’s words, Li Jinyang laughed crazily again.
"Oh, do medical cultivators have to bring guards when they go out?" After hearing what Li Jinyang said, Gu Yun asked in confusion.
"Hahaha, you kid doesn't even know this. You healers don't have any offensive power. If we were all like you stupid kid and didn't bring any guards, we would all be dead a long time ago." Li Jinyang said sarcastically.
Well, it turns out that the healer has no attack power, so what's going on with him? But since people think he has no attack power, then he must have no attack power.
So, he pretended to be a little scared and said to Li Jinyang: "Then what do you want, do you want to suck my blood? Don't forget, I saved your life, how could you do this to me?
”.
"Boy, you are so cute. How many people now have the idea of repaying a favor? Since you saved me, you might as well help me again and increase my cultivation level.
So let me take revenge." After saying that, there was another burst of laughter.
