Rumble…

The subway flies underground in the city.

As the subway passes through one tunnel after another, the light and shadow outside the train window flash faster and faster, like a hypnotic rhythm prop used by a psychological master.

From time to time, subways rush in from the darkness on the side, collide with each other, and merge into one.

A new passenger nodded to Zhou Yue, and Zhou Yue nodded in return.

There was no verbal communication.

Most of these passengers' eyes would stay for a while on the sleeping crow on Zhou Yue's shoulder.

Maybe it’s because I think back to my studies when I was young.

Zhou Yue thought to himself.

He returned his attention to the evolving panel again.

"Not activated yet? It took longer than last time."

The panel has been integrated with Zhou Yue's spiritual consciousness. Everything it does is serving the main body and occasionally taking care of Kun's clone in the ancient world.

From the initial projection of the pet pen to the later pet reception room, every upgrade is actually a sublimation of its own abilities.

These unparalleled abilities are what Zhou Yue looks forward to more than simple improvements in cultivation.

About a quarter of an hour later, the number of passengers in the carriage began to decrease.

An announcement sounded from the top of the carriage, "The Nianxiuzhe is about to transform and take off. The terminal is above the mainland, Canghai Academy. Please calm down and prepare for takeoff."

Zhou Yue's eyes lit up.

There is no flying transportation in this world, at least not in ground cities.

Zhou Yue had flown in a plane in his previous life and was able to take the subway. This was an experience that was absolutely unimaginable in his dreams.

Bang bang bang bang... the lights on the top of the subway were turned off one by one.

The light inside the carriage was dim, as if it was sinking into darkness.

Outside the car window, there was a strange scene.

Blue and purple light clusters, cyclonic dark clouds, violent winds visible to the naked eye, thunder and fire that collide with each other, hailstorms each larger than the size of a spiritual ball... These sudden and weird weather conditions seem to be close at hand, but they are completely unreachable.

Touch the subway that has already taken off.

The subway is really flying from the ground to the sky! It seems like a long dragon sucking water, vertically shuttling through the violent and complex weather environment around it!

The passengers in the car are also climbing up like a roller coaster, with their bodies facing up and their backs firmly touching the back of the seats.

The subway isn't really exposed.

Instead, it is driving on a transparent corridor.

Like a heavy glass tunnel in an oceanographic museum, it isolates the subway from the outside weather environment, but allows you to clearly see everything outside.

"This is the exclusive driving space of the 'Nian Xiu Zhe'."

Zhou Yue couldn't help but think of the chats he had with Tang Xiaobai these days.

…

"In this era, mind power and miraculous creatures are the masters of everything."

"And telekinesis, in addition to giving rise to telepathy cultivation civilization, also created telepathy technology."

"One of the cores of telekinesis technology is space theory."

"The travel ball, the Nian Xiuzhe, the city above, including the portable foster cabin, are all products of space theory."

"After the end of the plane war, a very strange thing happened. The great masters of the Nine Transformations Realm who founded the City in the Sky and the Academy of Relics disappeared collectively."

"Although they have left some clues, only the master-level executives are qualified to have access to these secrets, and at the same time, they can sign confidentiality clauses and stamp their spiritual seals."

"According to my research over the years, the gods and demons from the alien plane have not really left, but they have not actively contacted our world again."

…

Tang Xiaobai finally confided some secrets to him, but what she knew was very limited.

"The nine-turn grandmasters have disappeared collectively... confidentiality clauses and spiritual seals?"

"By the way. Before I was born, my parents had been living in the capital above, but why did they never mention it, as if they had completely forgotten about it? Could it be that they also signed some confidentiality agreement?"

When he was in Nanhe City, Zhou Yue had always wanted to ask, but in the end he still didn't know how to ask.

For some past events, forgetting may be the best choice.

Not long after, the Nian Xiu Zhe finally began to drive smoothly.

More and more new passengers appeared in the carriage one after another.

Zhou Yue understood that the Nian Xiu Zhe had completed its liftoff and started flying smoothly.

Through the window, Zhou Yue finally saw the scene he had been looking forward to.

Between the blue sky and white clouds, there are dense spatial corridors, intertwined like overpasses and viaducts.

Rows of chanting cultivators with different light colors are like long dragons flashing through these transparent space corridors, heading in different directions.

In front of these "overpasses", a giant city stretched across the sky.

It floats in the sky, like the fairy mountains and islands in myths and legends, and like the majestic stars. Many transparent spiral "long arms" stretch out from its side, either connected to the driving space of the Nianxiuzhe, or

Extending to unknown distances.

Zhou Yue knew, however, that it was the outer orbital space of the Sky City as Tang Xiaobai said.

Through it, you can go to other sky cities, or enter the market towns and villages derived from the sky cities.

He raised his body and moved his gaze downward.

The endless mountains and rivers on the ground and the dotted federal cities have disappeared without knowing when, leaving only a vast expanse of white.

…

We are getting closer and closer to the Sky City, but the panel has not yet completed its evolution.

Zhou Yue was not in a hurry.

He had another pressing matter to resolve.

"Hi, little Ma Tuan? Little baby? Little kiss? We are almost at the station, wake up?"

Zhou Yue struck up a conversation through the pet reception room.

Xiao Ma Tuan is obviously online, but there has never been a response.

From the moment it was summoned by the admission notice card until the moment it was summoned, no matter how Zhou Yue talked about playing with crows, it kept dozing off.

Zhou Yue put it on his knees, opened its pointed beak with one hand, and held a spoon with the other hand to scoop up pepper mustard sauce and feed it into its mouth.

The little glutinous rice ball sucked the sauce into its stomach, and then continued to snore.

After feeding him several mouthfuls in a row, the little pony ball just wouldn't wake up.

At this time, a tall, thin, middle-aged passenger sitting diagonally across from him suddenly smiled: "Sleeping crows are miraculous creatures common in the academy. They are sleepy all year round. Because they stop growing during their sleep, they are similar to frozen age. The academic world has no idea about them.

There is widespread controversy over their age. However, it is generally accepted that only Sichuan peppercorn mustard sauce can keep them awake. There may be something wrong with your raw materials. You can try Sky City’s authentic Sichuan peppercorn mustard sauce. I happen to have it on me.

"

Zhou Yue asked calmly: "How much does it cost?"

The uncle passenger smiled and stretched out his hand: "A bag of 100 tribute coins. If not, you can also write an IOU. You are an academy student, and you will definitely not default on your debt."

Zhou Yue's face was calm, and he scanned the uncle's passenger with his mind, and found that the other person was actually a third-level mind cultivator, but he didn't expect that he was also a "shrewd" businessman.

[Psychic scanning] shows that this person's cultivation status is somewhat abnormal.

Meeting by chance, Zhou Yue didn't want to get into trouble.

He had no obligation to help every stranger, especially the middle-aged man in front of him who didn't have a good first impression.

"That's no need. Thank you."

Zhou Yue refused politely.

Both Shi Qing and Xiaobai mentioned tribute coins, which are a kind of credit currency used in the cities above. According to market conditions, 1 tribute coin can be exchanged for federal coins ranging from 1,000 to 10,000, but federal coins are almost impossible to exchange.

to tribute coins.

Zhou Yue probably has a lot of value to Gonbi. Don't say he doesn't have it, and even if he does, he won't be fooled.

There will be no problem with your own peppercorn mustard sauce. There must be other reasons for Xiao Ma Tuan not waking up.

A hint of disappointment flashed in the uncle's eyes, but he didn't bother. He smiled and handed over a business card: "My name is Mao Fei. If you need anything, you can come to me. Prices in the school city are very high, and 100 tribute coins is actually very cheap."

Already."

Zhou Yue took the business card with a playful attitude.

The business card reads: Mao's Comprehensive Firm, Mao Fei, occupation: General distributor of spiritual pet rations, house rental manager, Feng Shui master, professional detective and others.
