This is a city located on the shore of the Sea of Misery. It is not large in scale, but its reputation is as high as the sky. It is a famous "Treasure Hunting City" in the Netherworld.
According to rumors, throughout the ages, there are many strong men from the Nether Clan who have found various powerful ancient treasures, ancient techniques, and ancient inheritances in Baoming City, and thus they have become famous and soared into the sky.
The reason lies in that boundless sea of suffering.
Millions of years ago, during the period when the third Netherworld Emperor was in charge of the Netherworld, he suppressed and killed countless powerful beings from the three realms, including immortals, demons, Buddhas, and Taoists.
And this sea of suffering is the burial place of the powerful men of the three realms, an ancient realm where gods are buried and Buddhas are exterminated!
How many powerful men of the three realms did the third Nether Emperor suppress?
No one knows.
Because the number was so huge, some strong men of the older generation only knew that back then, the entire sea of suffering was filled with red blood, with turbid waves rolling into the sky, thunder rolling, and red-haired winds blowing and bloody rain falling every day.
Among them, there were screams and shrill roars that shook the sky, and the sound of clashing weapons roared across the wasteland. From time to time, one could even see terrifying phantoms, struggling and roaring in the sea of suffering, which was extremely terrifying.
Back then, no one even dared to come within a hundred thousand miles of the Sea of Bitterness!
It was not until later that the third Netherworld Emperor fell, and the Sea of Bitterness suffered a catastrophe. Most of the dead gods and Buddhas and immortal souls suppressed in it were extradited, and then it turned into what it is now.
It was also from then on that the creatures in the Netherworld dared to come into contact with the sea of suffering little by little.
Then, people were surprised to find that many broken treasures and techniques were left on the shores of the sea of suffering!
And every once in a while, a phenomenon similar to a "tide" will occur in the sea of suffering. At that time, the seawater will pour in and hurricanes will cause disasters, which will cause great destructive power.
But when this "tide" phenomenon ends, many treasures will be left on the seashore. People speculate that all these are probably left by the powerful men of the three realms who were suppressed by the Nether Emperor under the sea of suffering.
It was also from that time that Baoming City was born, attracting countless powerful people from all over the world every day to hunt for treasures, hoping to find some opportunities.
Until now, Baoming City has reached its peak of prosperity. There are countless shops and treasure buildings in the city, selling some so-called "ancient treasures" and "ancient exercises"...
Of course, most of them are inferior and counterfeit goods.
But even so, some people can still find some real treasures and become famous.
Ruixian Restaurant.
At this time, Chen Xi and Bei Ling were sitting by the window on the second floor, drinking and discussing their itinerary.
After spending half a day, they had found out clearly that the place where King Yama Chujiang of the Second Palace was located was on a mountain peak called Wanliu Mountain on the other side of the Sea of Bitterness.
Unfortunately, there is no teleportation array in Baoming City that can cross the sea of suffering.
In other words, if you want to reach Wanliu Mountain, you must fly across the sea of suffering yourself.
"It's very difficult. There are too many mysterious areas in the Sea of Bitterness, and there are many time and space storms and natural restrictions. Without a sea map, even the gods will not be able to reach the other side."
Bei Ling frowned and spoke, slowly telling the information he had found out.
The Sea of Bitterness is a natural barrier that completely separates the Kingdom of Six Paths and the Kingdom of Yama. If you want to cross it, only some great forces in the Netherworld can do it.
Because these big forces generally have unique sea maps, they can safely avoid dangerous areas in the sea of suffering without getting lost in it.
"Chart..."
Chen Xi pondered for a moment and said, "What I know is similar to yours, but this sea chart is very difficult to obtain. There is no one selling it in Baoming City."
"Hey, I thought of a good place to go."
Bei Ling's eyes lit up, as if he remembered something, and he quickly said, "We can go to Wuwu Building to inquire about it. Doesn't it claim to know everything? I think as long as the price paid is enough, maybe we can exchange it for a sea chart."
Chen Xi also cheered up, and said dumbly: "I didn't expect this. Let's go, without further ado, let's go and investigate."
…
…
Wherever there is a city in the Netherworld, there is the Ignorance Tower.
This sentence is indeed true. After Chen Xi and Bei Ling left Ruixian Restaurant, they quickly found the branch opened by Wuwu Restaurant in Baoming City.
However, they were still far away from the Wuzhi Building. The two of them stopped at the same time, because in their field of vision, a very familiar figure suddenly entered the Wuzhi Building.
"Hou Zhan?"
Bei Ling was surprised. That figure was tall and thin, with a cold face filled with an air of majesty that could not be concealed. It was exactly the appearance of Hou Zhan of the Thousand-Eyed Ghost Monkey Clan.
But she clearly remembered that Hou Zhan had been killed by an old antique from the Cui family as early as when he was at the Cui family's residence, so how could he appear here?
"not him."
Chen Xi pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "If my guess is correct, that person should be a high-ranking figure in Wuzhi Tower, named Ren Changfeng. He seems to be a hall master of Anming Palace in Wuzhi Tower. He was in Wuzhi Tower that day.
When I was in the city, I went to Wuzhilou to inquire about the news, and Hou Zhan took the appearance of this person and deceived me."
"That's it." Beiling suddenly realized.
At that moment, the two of them entered the Wuzhi Building without stopping any longer.
"You two are inquiring about information or buying treasures." Behind the papers, a middle-aged man asked without raising his head.
"Inquiring about information, we want to reach the other side of the Sea of Bitterness." Chen Xi said directly.
"Oh?" The middle-aged man raised his head, glanced at Chen Xi and Bei Ling strangely, and then said calmly: "Are you two newcomers to Baoming City?"
"Not bad." Chen Xi replied.
"No wonder you have to know the rules." The middle-aged man was a little impatient and waved, "Let's go. Charts like this are forbidden items. Even if I am ignorant, I am not allowed to trade, and even the information is not allowed to be leaked.
.”
"Don't you mean that as long as you can afford the price, you can buy anything in Wuwulou? Is this just a gimmick to deceive?"
Bei Lindai frowned, a little unhappy.
The middle-aged man's face darkened and he said coldly: "This is a rule, girl, if you say that again, I will misunderstand that you are here to cause trouble!"
"You..." Bei Ling was angry, about to say something.
At this moment, a calm voice came, "Wei Ping, what's going on? You're yelling!"
Following the voice, a tall, thin, dignified middle-aged man with a cold face stepped forward. It was Changfeng, the director of the Anming Palace of Wuwu Tower.
As the distance got closer, Chen Xi discovered that Ren Changfeng was actually an immortal! There was a vague power of law lingering all over his body, and the aura was obscure, but it could not be hidden from Chen Xi's discernment.
This is indeed a Celestial Immortal, not a Mysterious Immortal, a Daluo Golden Immortal, or a Holy Immortal.
Because Ren Changfeng's aura was more than inferior to Liang Bing's, according to Chen Xi's estimation, the opponent could only have the cultivation level of a heavenly immortal.
However, what surprised Chen Xi was that even when facing Ren Changfeng at close range, he did not feel any pressure. He even felt in his heart that if he fought against the opponent, he would not have to be afraid at all...
Of course, this is just a feeling. How strong the opponent is will not be known until you take action.
"Sir, these two people want to find out information about going to the other side of the Sea of Bitterness, but you also know that according to the rules..." The middle-aged man stood up and explained in a low voice.
But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ren Changfeng: "Okay, leave this to me."
As he said that, he turned his head, his eyes swept across Bei Ling, and finally fell on Chen Xi. There was a hint of surprise deep in his eyes, and he said: "Eighth level of earth immortal?"
"Not bad." Chen Xi nodded. He did not hide his aura, and it was normal for the other party to notice it.
Ren Changfeng looked at Chen Xi thoughtfully and said, "Not everyone can go to the other side of the Sea of Bitterness. Why did you two go there?"
"Looking for someone." Chen Xi answered vaguely.
However, this answer seemed to make Ren Changfeng feel relieved. He waved and said: "If you don't mind, you can follow me to sea in three days. Of course, the price is 10,000 king-level dark crystals, or ten immortal pieces."
Instruments are also available.”
"Okay." Chen Xi replied without hesitation.
When he entered Ziluo City, he killed many powerful earth immortals of the Cui family. The trophies alone included tens of thousands of king-level underworld crystals. This price may be an astronomical figure for others, but for
If Qing Xiuyi was rescued early, how could he care anymore.
Ren Changfeng was startled. He had originally planned to leave, but he didn't expect that the other party agreed so readily. This made him a little surprised. He looked at Chen Xi again and said, "In this case, in the morning three days later,
Meet here."
After saying that, he entered the depths of the Ignorance Tower.
"Huh, good luck to you, you have gained Lord Ren's kindness."
The middle-aged man snorted slightly jealously, but he knew how rare and precious such an opportunity was.
Chen Xi was too lazy to argue with this person, so he paid half of the deposit and left with Bei Ling.
…
Early morning three days later.
Chen Xi and Bei Ling arrived at Wuwu Building as scheduled.
At this time, Ren Changfeng was already waiting there, and there were two other people beside him.
Later, Chen Xi learned that one of these two people, one named Tang Yun, had a strong figure and always had a smile on his face. He seemed easy to get along with, but he was actually a genuine eighth-level Earth Immortal.
The other one is named Wang Yan, a plain-looking old man with a gloomy face and a stern smile. His cultivation level is also at the eighth level of the Earth Immortal.
"Everyone is here, let's go. There are only three days left before the day of the 'Blood Tide'. We must seize the time."
Ren Changfeng gave an order, turned around and walked towards Wuwu Building, without any delay and without introducing the identities of Chen Xi and Bei Ling.
However, he couldn't introduce them because he never asked Chen Xi for their names.
Perhaps in his opinion, taking Chen Xi and Bei Ling out to sea was just a coincidence, not to mention that the other party also paid a large sum of Ming Crystal.
After a while, everyone came to the shore of the sea of suffering.
Ren Changfeng waved his sleeves, and a long and narrow treasure ship in the shape of a spindle appeared in the air, carrying everyone. With a buzzing sound, it shook the void and suddenly rushed into the vast sea of suffering.
