At this moment, the light door flickered, and then a figure walked through the light door and appeared in booth No. 50.
Gao Xingyu saw that there was lightning strike wood for sale, and it came from Tianleitan, so he naturally wanted to come in and take a look.
For mages, Lightning Strike Wood has a wide range of uses and can be used in many formations. Therefore, as long as the quality of Thunder Strike Wood is decent, there is no problem in buying it with your eyes closed.
However, when Gao Xingyu came in, he found that someone was already trading at the stall, and they were human monks, so as usual, he stepped aside and waited for the previous transaction to end.
Since they were all human monks, Gao Xingyu took off his cloak from his head and nodded friendly to the three human monks.
"Hey, are you...Master Gao?" While negotiating with the stall owner, he paid attention to the Nangong Xiaojian of the latecomer. After seeing Gao Xingyu's appearance clearly, he hesitated for a moment and then came forward to say hello.
"Nangong Xiaojian of the Nangong family met Master Gao. I was lucky enough to meet you once, Master Gao, at Nangong Villa.
This is my sister Nangong Wan'er, and this is sister Qin Cao from Huixian Yaju."
"Everyone is friendly!" Gao Xingyu saluted in return.
After hearing Nangong Xiaojian mention that he had met him at Nangong Villa, Gao Xingyu knew the other person's background.
Nangong Villa is the villa of the Nangong family. It is located on the edge of the Tianhong Mountains more than 100 kilometers northwest of Qunyu City. It is currently one of the five outposts outside Qunyu City.
Whether in the secular world or the cultivation world, if there is only an isolated city as a base, it will not only be difficult to defend, but also difficult to develop and grow.
Qunyu City is the only settlement point of the human race in the Miaocei Realm. In order to effectively protect Qunyu City, after the completion of Qunyu City and the human race moved in one after another, senior experts chose suitable locations outside the city and built three permanent fronts.
The exit point. The other two former exit points were built later.
When developing the world of Miaochi, the great masters had predicted that the end of the Dharma era was coming, and everyone was making preparations to move to other worlds.
Since the Heavenly Dao suppresses the upper limit of cultivation level, the traditional organizational structure that was dominated by sects and supplemented by families is no longer suitable for the cultivation world in the Age of Dharma Ending.
Therefore, the various sects and families who were preparing to enter the Miaocui Realm and settled in Qunyu City united, abandoned their sectarian ideas, formed the Chinese Guardian Alliance among the remaining personnel, and integrated the basic cultivation techniques left behind by each (only before Jindan)
exercises) and some cultivation resources, forming a new structure led by the alliance and assisted by sects and families.
After moving into Qunyu City, the Chinese monks were in a window period of losing the support of mid-to-high-end forces, and they also had to face the hostility and attacks of the surrounding orcs.
In comparison, cultivating families whose relationships are based on blood are better at splitting attacks and coordinating in battle.
Therefore, the alliance handed over the management of the advanced stronghold to the three most powerful families in Qunyu City at that time, one of which was the Nangong family.
To put it into perspective, among the cultivating families in China back then, these three families were not even in the top twenty, and could only be considered average.
However, the so-called top families have their own secret realm or cave heaven paradise in the earth world, which not only allows people to practice, but also generates certain resources.
The people they left behind in the earth world only need to live in seclusion or semi-seclusion in order to continue the inheritance.
Therefore, the top families basically have no intention of moving to the Miaochi Realm. Even if they send people here, it is just to spread their branches. At most, they will only be a few side members with insufficient combat effectiveness.
On the contrary, those small and medium-sized families, when they were about to lose the "land" in the "Dharma Land Wealth Couple", had to completely leave the Earth Realm and move the entire family to the Miaochi Realm.
Many of these families only retain their ancestral land symbolically in the earth world without continuing the inheritance. They don't even have a place to practice, so the so-called inheritance has become a sourceless water.
In this way, the strength of these small and medium-sized families who moved into Qunyu City was preserved, and instead became the main force at that time. The Nangong family, which has the inheritance of battle formations and is good at group cooperation, became the defenders of the stronghold in front of the Tianhong Mountains.
The defense of the stronghold was more difficult than defending the city. The three families fought bloody battles and lost a large number of tribesmen. Finally, they persisted until the large human army that moved into the Miaocheng Realm completed the adjustment and adaptation, and became free to move around.
He launched a counterattack and finally established a firm foothold in the Miaojie world.
Therefore, the three families that sacrificed themselves to buy valuable time for the human race were respected as the three major families in the Miaoji Realm, and received preferential support from the alliance in terms of policies and resources.
Today, these three families have developed into the three major families that deserve the name. Except for their slight lack of foundation, in terms of the number of experts and overall strength, they are not inferior to the top families left behind in the earth world.
As time went by, the existence of the human race was gradually accepted by the surrounding beast races. Except for the siege of beasts once every few years, Qunyu City rarely suffered large-scale attacks.
The military role of several advanced strongholds is gradually weakening, and more often they become transit points for human monks when traveling.
These strongholds are nominally owned by the defenders, but as an extension of the overall defense of Qunyu City, the alliance is responsible for maintaining the formations deployed at the strongholds.
Gao Xingyu received the task assigned by the Formation Hall and went to the former stronghold in the Tianhong Mountains - also known as Nangong Villa to conduct regular inspections of the formations there.
In order to show respect for the formation master, the foundation-building elder of the Nangong family who was responsible for external affairs accompanied Gao Xingyu all the way. After arriving at Nangong Villa, there were clan members stationed at the villa responsible for controlling the formation.
Gao Xingyu and Ying Baoer were busy at Nangong Villa for three days. He readjusted and tested various formations with reference to the formation diagrams left by the creators of the formations, and supplemented and replaced some formation kits.
The main residence of the Nangong family is in Qunyu City, which is their foundation.
In non-war conditions, the Nangong family will arrange for clan members to take turns going to Nangong Villa, so that there will always be one foundation-building monk and at least five high-level guards in the Qi training period. The city guard will also send a small team.
Stationed at Nangong Villa to assist in defense.
Nangong Xiaojian was on duty at Nangong Villa at the time. He didn't understand the formation, so he didn't approach Gao Xingyu, but just watched from a distance.
Therefore, now Nangong Xiaojian knows Gao Xingyu, but Gao Xingyu does not know him.
Several people bowed to each other and then stepped aside. This kind of occasion was not suitable for everyone to chat. Nangong Xiaojian continued to trade with the stall owner.
The two Kun quietly looked at each other and found a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
It has been two years since Gao Xingyu came to the Miaocui world. He was specially invited to join the alliance as a formation master in the Qi training period. He is usually either communicating and learning with the formation masters or busy completing various tasks.
Being an array mage is not a profession with unlimited glory and high status in front of others. Gao Xingyu is more accustomed to restraining his sharp edge and doing things in a low-key manner.
However, as time went by, his reputation gradually grew louder, and even these two Kun cultivators had heard of him.
