Although Xianlai City does not appear to be much different from an ordinary city on the surface, the only thing is that the mortals living in the city are mainly mortals outside of the immortal cultivators. Therefore, the residents here do not feel mysterious or surprised by the immortal cultivators.
.
Sun Huo was very surprised when he heard that there was such an internal and external relationship between immortal cultivators and mortals. He originally thought that everyone could practice the Immortal Cultivation Techniques, but it just depended on the individual's qualifications and the level he had reached.
That’s all.
I just didn't expect that practicing Kung Fu requires some immortal roots, otherwise you can't enter the house. This is very different from the martial arts families in the world. With such a large population in the city, it can be said that every family is harmonious.
Even though he is related to the immortals, they are not able to learn one or two techniques. No wonder he has not met any immortal cultivators for so many years. He is really lucky to be able to succeed in cultivation.
The entire Xianlai City is currently jointly managed by the four major families: Xiao, Li, Liu, and Bai. This also means that each of the four surnames has an internal lineage of cultivating immortals.
Even though they are so close to the immortal cultivators, the residents of this city cannot often see the immortal cultivators. In order to avoid unnecessary disputes and turmoil, which would affect the secular order, the immortal cultivators are prohibited from casting spells in front of others. Occasionally, I do see immortal cultivators casting spells, but I am afraid to avoid them. That only means that it is a disaster rather than a blessing, and it is very likely to cause harm to Chiyu.
Such a situation makes Sun Huo feel very troubled. A family of cultivators connected by blood must be as repulsive to outsiders as a common martial arts family. It's hard to say whether they are willing to accept people with foreign surnames like themselves. To say the least, even if they successfully enter
After that, the treatment I received should be at the lowest level.
The big man who found him in Baiwei Tower brought exactly such news about the Immortal Cultivation Family. The lively scene Sun Huo saw when he entered the city was also related to this.
In order to maintain the blood relationship between the outer mortals and the inner monks without appearing so distant and heartless, the founder of Xianlai City made a rule.
Every twelve years, Xianlai City will hold a heavenly selection meeting. Sixty-four families will be selected and their children of appropriate age will be examined.
If anyone among them really has immortal roots, they will be announced on the spot, and then they can join their own family line and start practicing immortality.
Every year in the year of the Heavenly Selection, it is unknown what kind of fights the people in the city will secretly fight for the sixty-four places of the Heavenly Selection. But on the day of the Heavenly Selection, Xianlai City will definitely hold a grand celebration.
There will be a grand celebration. Tribesmen outside the country will also receive invitation letters and come to watch the ceremony.
Although there are only a handful of times at the Heavenly Selection Conference where a boy with immortal roots can be found, for hundreds of years, every Heavenly Selection Conference will be held as scheduled.
The time when Sun Huo entered the city happened to be the day after the Tianxuan Conference ended, so the flow of people attending the conference had not completely dispersed. The city was very lively, and many people took this opportunity to visit relatives, friends, and merchants.
They are also touting whether goods can be exchanged.
The bearded man who approached Sun Huo this time was named Xiao Feng. There were many members of the Xiao clan, and being one of them was originally insignificant. However, since he was a child, he had loved to dance with guns and sticks, and he had developed a strong body through hard work. This appearance in Xianlai City was not to observe the Heavenly Selection Conference, but was urgently summoned by a message from the clan.
There was an accident in this year's Tianxuan Conference. Among the children of the sixty-four families, there were three children with immortal roots. This has never happened in previous conferences.
According to the usual practice, if a candidate does appear, after the conference is over, he will return to the family residence with the envoys who come to inspect the immortal roots.
But for some unknown reason, this year's envoy did not stay any longer after completing the necessary inspections, and left Xianlai City in a hurry.
Regarding the whereabouts of the boy, the messenger just told the person in charge present and asked them to solve it on their own. They would send it along with this year's offerings, and someone would be there to take care of the arrangements.
Not only were the boy's parents unprepared for such a sudden decision, but even the clan heads of each family were completely surprised.
But now that the matter has come to this, we can only do what the other party said.
Although the four major cultivating families are located on the outskirts of the Yunmeng Mountains, they are still separated from Xianlai City by a large no-man's land. The terrain is complex, including hills, dense forests, and swamps and grasslands.
Although a relatively safe passage was specially opened to facilitate communication with Xianlai City. However, offerings like this need to be handed over only once every five years, so the safety of this passage that is usually untraveled is basically
Hard to guarantee.
Although the round trip only takes half a month, every time on the way to worship, some people are still lost due to some unpredictable accidents.
Unfortunately, the departure time for this year's ceremony is three days later. Therefore, whether the three boys can successfully make the trip has touched the heartstrings of all forces in Xianlai City.
Xiao Feng received the message and was ready to protect the three of them on their trip. After all, this escort mission will not only face possible accidents on the road, but also the killers following.
But when he arrived in a hurry, he found that there were only three of them including him. As a last resort, the boss sent all three of them out to see if they could find some reliable helpers nearby. By coincidence, this happened
I found Sun Huo in Baiwei Tower.
In order to win over Sun Huo to join, Xiao Feng offered the biggest reward his employer could promise, a Pei Yuan Dan. A secret medicine that is very popular among martial arts practitioners. It is said that after taking it, it can increase one's skill for twenty years.<
/p>
But even so, Sun Huo didn't show any emotion on the spot, he just said that he would think about it. This made Xiao Feng depressed, but at the same time he couldn't help but feel a little afraid.
Faced with fifteen years of skill growth, he didn't even have an ecstatic expression. How high must his own strength be? Moreover, under his careful observation, he could also see that Sun Huo was actually not that old.
It’s just that this slovenly appearance makes you look older.
What Xiao Feng didn't know was that it wasn't that Sun Huo wasn't interested in Pei Yuan Dan, but that just one pill simply couldn't meet his needs. Although this kind of patent medicine made rapid progress for martial arts practitioners, it was not so obvious for the cultivation of immortal magic.
.
What Sun Huo wants to know more is how to configure this kind of elixir, which may help him enter the next level. What's more, this matter also involves the cultivating family, so he can't agree rashly.
After breaking up with Xiao Feng, Sun Huo made repeated inquiries. After confirming that what Xiao Feng said was correct, he made up his mind and came to Ke Lai Ju.
Since there are no traces of immortal cultivators in the city, he is not worried about anyone discovering his identity for the time being. Regarding the dangers that may be encountered during the escort, Sun Huo thinks that even if he cannot save the convoy, he should at least be able to protect himself.
The only question now is, after arriving at the destination, what kind of rhetoric should I prepare so that I can win the trust of this immortal cultivating family and not be regarded as a spy with ulterior motives?
