Even Master Gu Chenxiao could not recognize the strange flames in the hourglass. Chen Xuan could only follow Gu Chenxiao's statement that after he arrived at the black market where the embers and wasteland scavengers gathered, he would find an appraiser who specifically identified such mutant spirits.
At this time, the twelve-winged silver eagle almost recovered from waking up and no longer fainted. Chen Xuan, Ji Tingsha, Gu Chenxiao, and Ling Su sat on the back of the eagle and left the ruined town.
About a day later.
Chen Xuan saw on the back of the carving, where the light and shadow were twisted in front of him, a ruined city mainly in black tones.
The setting sun in the sky is like blood, and the wasteland city shining under the blood-red sunlight seems desolate, vast and old, giving people the illusion of a doomsday scene.
The City of Embers is the center of the entire Embers Wasteland.
The natives who survived by that super war had tried to leave this wasteland world full of famine, infection, distortion and beastization.
However, the survivors with deep mutations are not favored by monks from other areas of the Tianwu Realm. Monks from the outside believe that survivors will bring about terrible plagues.
After several survivors who left the wasteland were killed by monks from outside, the survivors who fled back had to make a living and build their own city on the wasteland, thus the "City of Embers" was created.
Through Gu Chenxiao's story, Chen Xuan learned that not only various foreign scavengers exist in the Ears City. Although a large number of evil figures and forces have settled in the Ears City, this wasteland city has developed many local survivor forces after thousands of years of reproduction and survival.
Among them, three major local forces stand at the top of the Ember City, namely the "Dawn Monks' Courtyard", the "Ember Hunting Sect" and the "New Age Sect".
In the face of a devastating blow, the wasteland world completely independent of other areas of the Tianwu Realm was rebuilt. Many of the original survivors of this land were replaced by "substantially sequelae" and "star explosion heart disease", and urgently needed to seek new spiritual beliefs.
Against this background, two major religious forces, the Dawn Monk Academy and the New Age sect, came into being, and recruited a large number of believers in a thousand years, including many masters with advanced multiple mutations.
The Ember Hunting Sect is an organization that specializes in hunting various mutated beasts on the Ember Wasteland, and has studied the various mutated advancement methods. Through thousands of years of summary, this organization finally released a set of authoritative wasteland mutation rules, which made great contributions to the cultivation circle of the Ember Wasteland.
Many people have obtained new magical powers or abilities for the first time, but they don’t know how to advance. The mutation law system of the Ember Hunting Sect provides these people with a new path of cultivation. At the same time, the derived mutation elixir pharmacy has also begun to be popular in Ember City. So far, more than hundreds of wasteland unique elixirs can allow wasteland cultivators to steadily improve their mutant abilities, just as the blood-blooded magical power can be upgraded from the first level to the fourth level.
Chen Xuan suspected that the hourglass he obtained was probably a spiritual object that could allow the monk to upgrade some kind of flame magical power. The mutated corpse king didn't know which unlucky monk got it from. He knew that the hourglass was the best treasure, but he didn't know how to use it, so he could only keep it.
Of course, all of this was Chen Xuan's own guess. As Yuchen City was about to arrive, Chen Xuan restrained his mind and flew down with Ji Tingsha, Gu Chenxiao, and Lingsu, and then walked towards the magnificent black city gate ahead.
The four people entering the Ember City did not attract many attention, because there were many monks entering and leaving the Ember City every day. They either went out to hunt and pick up scattered goods, or just came back from hunting. There were also many new faces like Chen Xuan and the other four who entered the wasteland world for the first time, most of whom came with the intention of getting great opportunities.
One by one, the cloaked guests rushed in and out of the city gate. After Chen Xuan entered the city, he found that the streets were crowded and very lively, which was beyond his expectations.
Ji Tingsha was attracted by the novel outfits of these scavengers. Unlike the pure monks in the Tianwu Realm, especially the Holy Martial Empire, the monks in the wasteland like to wear strange clothes and costumes. Some mutants have hair of different colors and different colored pupils. The rose red on Ji Tingsha’s left eye is not so conspicuous in the crowd.
In addition, almost all kinds of patterns are engraved on the pedestrians on the streets of Ember City, some are images of some wild beasts, and some are some strange ancient characters, which seem to be to show their personality, which is different from those of monks from outside.
Chen Xuan was more concerned about the parts of the monks in Yuancheng City with various metallic lights on their bodies, which was similar to the metal-arm monster he encountered in the ruins of the town before. It seemed that the monks in the wasteland liked to transform their bodies and refine certain parts of their bodies into magic weapons to adapt to various mutated magical powers.
For example, a monk in black who had just passed by Chen Xuan's left looked like he was wearing a goose-protecting magic weapon in his eyes, but this instrument was directly embedded in his eye sockets, transforming a pair of eyes into green compound eyes similar to insects.
Another female monk not far away, whose face was completely metalized, looked like a semi-defensive mask and half-skin modification. It seemed that such modification could filter the star explosion infection in the air.
In addition to facial modification, many monks who came and went on the street shone with different metallic lights on their hands and feet, and some even had special refining materials on half of their bodies, which looked very strange in shape.
As Chen Xuan walked, he found that the crowd in front suddenly dispersed quickly, and many people looked fearful and fearful on their faces. Then a group of monks wearing gray robes and hats folded their hands together and passed by the intersection in a neat way, without looking at the pedestrians at all.
"Is this the Dawn Monks' Courtyard, one of the three top forces in Ember City?" Ji Tingsha was slightly surprised.
"It should be."
Chen Xuan found that the aura of the monks in Yuancheng City was very different from that of the monks outside the world, probably because of their physical mutation.
The aura of the monks who had just walked over was even more strange, making people unable to sense the level of cultivation and other backgrounds.
"Master, do you think that after receiving the news that our master and disciples entered the city, will we take measures to clear us?" Chen Xuan turned around and asked Gu Chenxiao.
Unlike other forces, the Mo Xiao Monk Academy is more serious and old-fashioned, and is very unfriendly to foreign evil figures, especially the Star Realm level, because they believe that foreign Star Realm cultivators will bring new world-destructive disasters.
Chen Xuan and Gu Chenxiao had no intention of hiding their identities. After all, the master and apprentice are different now and there is no need to act in a low-key manner.
This will inevitably be discovered by all forces in the Ember City. Although the Ember Wasteland and the Holy Martial Empire are completely different worlds, it is difficult to guarantee that some wasteland monks covet the generous rewards issued by the Holy Martial Empire, including the top forces in the Ember City.
