A lonely city stands on a high mountain. It looks like square houses that have been enlarged countless times and shrunk one by one to form a three-story trapezoidal cyan pyramid.
The most eye-catching thing is that in the center of the city, a totem-like stone pillar carved with various patterns of monsters towers into the sky, holding a beautiful palace above the clouds.
No need to think about it, this palace must be the palace of the eighth-level Demon King of the Peeping Dao Realm.
Ye Qian had never thought that the Demonic Immortal City looked like this. It was not like a city on the border between the Immortal Alliance and the Xingxiu Heavenly Palace, but more like the residence of a certain sect. Generally speaking, the structure of this trapezoidal pyramid represents the hierarchy within the building.
Clear and orderly from top to bottom.
Just looking at this fairy city, Ye Qian has an understanding of the status of human beings. This is a city where monsters are made. The cultivators just live in it, and their status is probably not very high.
"This is a ladder tower, the favorite architectural form of demon beasts. Even the demon emperor's mausoleum looks like this!" Chen Feng lowered half of Ye Qian's body, behind Ye Qian, and looked at the nearby demon fairy city with Ye Qian.
, said with emotion.
Chen Feng is the cousin of Chu Baiyun, the seventh daughter of the Chu family. He has watched Chu Baiyun grow up since he was a child. He is one of the few close and trustworthy relatives of Chu Baiyun. He was specially chosen by Chu Baiyun to take Ye Qian to the Fairy City.
The Chu family is one of the eight top forces in the Immortal Alliance. In addition to its own strength, the huge in-law families are also part of its power. If some outstanding geniuses from these in-law families are screened, they will be sent to the Chu family for further studies to increase their strength and maintain relationships.
It was under such circumstances that Chen Feng entered the Chu family. He first became the guard of Chu Baiyun's mother during her childbirth, then protected Chu Baiyun as he grew up and practiced, and then followed Chu Baiyun all the way to the far north.
"The demon beasts have distinct hierarchies. The first level of the ladder tower is the lowest level. The south belongs to the half-demon tribe, and the north belongs to our Immortal Alliance. The first to fifth levels of the Peeping Dao Realm can only move on this level;
The second floor of the ladder tower is still divided into north and south. Only those with cultivation levels above the sixth level of the Peeping Dao Realm, or those with distinguished status, such as the heirs of the half-demon tribe, or representatives of the top forces of the Immortal Alliance can enter;
The third floor of the ladder tower can only be entered by those who are above the seventh level of the Peeping Dao Realm. Basically, those who live there are either the great demons under our demon emperor, or the rebellious humans who have taken refuge in the demon beasts.
The pillar in the center of the ladder tower is called the Demon Emperor Pillar. It is said that every great demon in the Xingxu Heavenly Palace will build a ladder tower and erect a Demon Emperor Pillar when he breaks through to the eighth level of the Dao Realm and becomes the Demon Queen.
, the Demon Emperor's Pillar will collapse, and the ladder tower will become the Demon Emperor's mausoleum, and all living beings in the city will be buried with the Demon Emperor!" A trace of fear flashed in Chen Feng's eyes as he introduced it to Ye Qian.
"Except for Fairy City?" Ye Qian was slightly shocked. This Xingxu Celestial Palace is really evil. It is very similar to the pyramid race in his hometown. They all built mausoleums before they were alive. Of course, the emperors of Ye Qian's hometown also had this virtue, but at least they
I won't live in it when I'm alive. It's used for both life and death. It's not a waste at all.
"The Demon Immortal City is an exception. The Demon Emperor only takes turns to be on duty!" Chen Feng nodded. Are you kidding? He thought with his thighs that the Demon Immortal City is also an exception. Otherwise, if the Demon Emperor has an accident, all the half-demon and monster beasts in the city will die.
, don’t even think about whether people from the eight major families of the Immortal Alliance will also be buried with the Demon Emperor.
"Among the monsters, the status is clear, and it is even more vivid in this ladder tower..." Chen Feng said directly with deep meaning in his eyes, "Born and cultivation will isolate the upper and lower levels.
Once you reach the corresponding level, you won’t have any unreasonable thoughts about the above. Unlike our Immortal Alliance, many times, a trace of greed will lead you to take risks without thinking about whether it will bring disaster!"
The reason why Chen Feng said this was to tactfully remind Wang Fugui not to have any real thoughts. He is not stupid. Wang Fugui's fighting power is amazing. How could he offend him directly? But Chu Baiyun was the one he watched grow up. Judging from Chen Feng's half-life experience,
Chu Baiyun has secretly developed feelings for Wang Fugui. Chen Feng sees it, but is not very optimistic about it. He doesn't want Chu Baiyun to make a mistake and become an eternal hatred.
What's more, Chu Baiyun is the seventh young lady of the Chu family and has no control over her marriage. Escaping to the far north is just a stopgap measure. She has to go back eventually. If something really happens to Wang Fugui, it will be too late to say anything by then.
Chen Feng had eight levels of confidence that the Wang Fugui in front of him should be using a pseudonym. He did not have the style of a big family at all. The daughter of the Chu family would not marry a casual cultivator again. Although Wang Fugui's appearance and demeanor were good, but
If you speak frivolously and forget about your family background, you are not a good match.
"Only people who have no ability will always talk about their background, because they have nothing but this!" How could Ye Qian not know the little thoughts in Chen Feng's heart, and replied calmly.
"For mortals, cultivators are capable. For cultivators, it is necessary to enter the Peeping Dao Realm. But only after entering the Peeping Dao Realm will you know that those below the seventh level of the Peeping Dao Realm are all ants. Even if there are
If you break the mirror and enter the seventh level one day earlier, you will still find that there are still countless mountains suppressing it!"
Chen Feng smiled self-deprecatingly, looking at the Demon Emperor's Palace looming above the clouds, with a hint of helpless envy. Who doesn't want to become a powerful person, but family background is an invisible ceiling that isolates most cultivators from below.
Just like this fairy city.
"Cultivation is just one of the personal abilities. Just like if you have high cultivation, you can bully men and dominate women, but it does not mean that you have the ability to fall in love with girls and make people fall in love with you!" Ye Qian found this uninteresting.
There will be no results in the battle of justice. Vision and background determine one's ass and brains. No one can convince anyone else.
"Let's go!" Ye Qian was too lazy to say anything else and walked straight ahead. His time was precious and he didn't have time to work hard. He was not in the mood to argue with others about such a pragmatic thing. Even if he won, there would be no benefit.
As for how the Fairy City is, you will know it by experiencing it for yourself. Just listen to what others say.
Just like in this Fairy City, Chen Feng saw the distinction between the upper and lower classes, but what Ye Qian saw was that the monsters were clearly ascending the path. As long as they have strength, they will have corresponding status. Unlike the Immortal League, where casual cultivators are born, even if they have strength,
He is tall and strong, but he is born short and is a descendant of a prominent family.
Chen Feng heard the impatient tone, looked at the back of the advancing figure, a wry smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and followed.
He does despise casual cultivators, which is a common condescending mentality among children of aristocratic families, but he really has no ill intentions, and is just worried.
The Fairy City is getting closer and closer, and there are more and more human cultivators and caravans around. Most of the caravans are driving away spiritual beasts. Many large caravans are laughing and hoping for a safe journey. Only some small caravans are silent, even
Everyone was injured, presumably like Ye Qian and others, they encountered robbers on the road.
Of course, in comparison, the Chu family caravan must be the most unlucky group. Their valuable treasures were robbed, all the spirit beasts died, and the group was almost wiped out.
Ye Qian and Chen Feng were speechless, silently queuing up to wait to enter the Fairy City. It took a long time before it was their turn.
"Token!"
Chengwei is a spirited old man. He is not a half-demon, but a true practitioner of the sixth level of the Dao Realm of Peeping Humans.
The old city guard had no expression on his face and stretched out his hand to ask for the pass token. He knew Chen Feng. He was from the Chu family and often came to Yaoxian City, but he would not let him go directly because of this. According to the rules of Yaoxian City, the token and the holder are indispensable.
"This is mine!" Chen Feng placed a stone token on the ground. On the token, there is a demon on the front and an immortal on the back, and there are various patterns carved on it.
"Where is he?" The old man from the city guard glanced at Ye Qian strangely. The two of them were alone, and they were caravans from other families. Not to mention that Chen Feng did not have the right to bring people into the city, and the Chu family did not. The caravan was considered a temporary guard.
The mission of Demon Fairy City is only guaranteed by the Chu family.
"His name is Wang Fugui. He is a temporary guard of the caravan. I will bring him to guarantee entry into the city!" Chen Feng took out a contract, which Ye Qian casually signed in the name of Wang Fugui yesterday. It is one of the certificates for obtaining a pass token when entering the city.
one.
"Where is your caravan?" The old man from the city guard looked at Chen Feng in his heart. He had seen this kind of situation before. The caravan was destroyed and both people and goods were lost. But the Chu family is the top power in the Immortal Alliance, how can it be unsightly?
The rogue cultivators plundered the Chu family's goods. Aren't you afraid of the Chu family liquidating them?
Something big has happened! The old man Cheng Wei's pupils shrank, and he had an ominous premonition.
"The spirit horse transaction between the Chu family and the Xingri Half-Demon Tribe was supposed to be completed today. Now I am bringing the handwritten letter of Chu Baiyun, the seventh lady of the Chu family and the controller of the Chu family in the far north, to formally submit to the Chu family in the name of the Chu family.
The transaction reported in Yaoxian City failed, and the Chu family caravan lost more than 300 people, 10,000 horses, and more than ten survivors today!"
Chen Feng's face was expressionless, but there was a flash of pain in his eyes. He handed a document of understanding of the failure of the transaction handwritten by Chu Baiyun to the old man. The Chu family had not experienced such a painful thing in more than a hundred years.
"..." The old man from the city guard's face darkened. He took the document and glanced at it roughly. He understood that there was no real content in the document. He only said that the caravan was robbed and both people and goods were lost. Later, he would go to the Xingri Half-demon Tribe in person.
explain.
Chen Feng's voice was not loud, but the people around him who dared to take this route were at least practitioners at the sixth level of the Peeping Dao Realm. Even though there was a lot of noise, the Chu family caravan suffered heavy losses, and it was reported that hundreds of people died and the group was basically wiped out.
It spread instantly.
"The Chu family dares to rob, who dares to overtake the ambition of a leopard!" A steward of the caravan was secretly frightened, and there was still joy in his eyes. Fortunately, he did not find them, otherwise he would definitely be dead or alive.
"It seems that the road from Maple Leaf City to Fairy Fairy City will be semi-obsolete in the future!" An old man from the caravan sighed worriedly. Even the Chu family couldn't save their goods. It didn't take much to think about it. It didn't take long to know that the plundering gang was extremely powerful.
Dare to walk along this road, this time it's the Chu family, maybe it will be your turn next time.
"No way, the Chu family will definitely send people to clean up and kill them immediately. Is it so easy to take advantage of it?" A young practitioner from the caravan retorted unconvinced. The Chu family is the top force in the Immortal Alliance. If such a big thing happened,
There will definitely be some action, otherwise if people rush to imitate him, he will really become the laughingstock of the Immortal Alliance.
"There is reincarnation in the way of heaven. The Chu family monopolizes the transactions of the Xingri Half-demon tribe. This will not be punished!" A steward of a large caravan sneered. The caravans who are also the top forces of the Immortal Alliance usually step on each other. Now,
There's nothing wrong with saying a few sarcastic remarks to add insult to injury.
"The Chu family's caravan is gone, and so is the spirit horse. There is a chance!" The caravan with the spirit horse reserves is hiding in the thief, and he quickly makes plans in his mind. This time the Chu family made a mistake and lost both people and goods. Maybe it can be done?
In order to get involved, the Chu family has a monopoly on the Xingri Tribe's transactions. Who is not greedy? Unfortunately, they have been unable to get involved. When the opportunity comes, there is no reason to let it go...
