Volume 1: Abandoned Land Chapter 152: Jinling City
The thirteen cities in one county of the imperial capital are all divided by families. Through the power of thin blood, they are passed down from generation to generation. There are countless immortal cultivating families in the entire imperial capital. Among them, the three major families of Jin Miao Duan are the strongest and have many dependents.
Through the extension of the power of these small families, the tentacles of the three major families spread throughout the imperial capital.
As a result, even the ordinary disciples of the three major families have a sense of superiority, and even the royal family does not pay much attention to it. This is especially true for some direct descendants of the family. This sense of superiority is reflected in the casual way they talk and treat others.
, and as one of the three major families, the ancestor of the Jin family is unparalleled in the entire Jinling City. It is not an exaggeration to say that he can cover the sky with one hand. Even in this special period, when the evil spirit is raging, his 700th birthday is still widely invited.
Fellow Taoists were preparing to celebrate grandly, but they seemed not to notice the disaster before them at all.
Of course, there is also a competitive relationship between the disciples of these families, especially the direct descendants of these families, which are divided into many factions. Among them, Jin Rui, as the direct grandson of the third contemporary elder of the Jin family, also formed his own faction and secretly recruited many good players. Now
The three people surrounding him were like this.
The eldest elder of the Jin family advanced to the late Jindan stage decades ago. Now that he is celebrating his 700th birthday, he naturally invites a wide range of guests and prepares for a grand celebration. Even some Jindan elders who came to help from the sect are also invited. Mr. Kong
Three followed Jin Rui and others, speeding all the way towards Jinling City. As for Mr. Li and other foundation-building cultivators, they stayed in Linxuan Town to prevent sneak attacks by monsters.
Today's imperial capital is not at peace. Many demon cultivators are like locusts. As long as they encounter living creatures, they will attack them regardless of whether they are alive or not. They are like bloodthirsty beasts. However, compared to the vast land of the imperial capital, these demon cultivators are like locusts.
There are only a small number of cultivators who have transformed, and most of them are in the Qi refining stage. There are not many remnant spirits who have actually escaped from those small demon realms that have broken the seal.
Just over ten days later, everyone came to a magnificent fairy city.
Looking from a distance, the entire city seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, looking a little hazy. Kong Laosan knew that this was due to the opening of the ban outside the entire Jinling City. After nearly a thousand years of continuous movement by the Jin family,
With the construction and construction, the entire Jinling City has become a true fairy city. Both cultivators and secular mortals live in the city.
Looking closer, the city's pavilions and pavilions can be seen with the naked eye, with carved beams and painted buildings. Each attic house has been carefully carved, just like a scroll. Countless Jin family cultivators are flying around to patrol, creating an extremely busy scene.
When they were about a hundred feet away from the city, strange fluctuations suddenly came from the surroundings. The next moment, the surrounding air suddenly became thicker, and several people flew through the air, as if they were sailing against the current, and their speed suddenly dropped a lot.
Kong Laosan was secretly shocked, but he soon returned to normal. He followed Jin Rui and others down and walked towards Jinling City.
At the gate of the city, Kong Laosan and others had just arrived. A group of cultivators in white robes stood respectfully on both sides as if they had received the news in advance. The leader was a middle-aged man with a red face. In the middle of foundation building,
Looking quite calm, he glanced at Kong Laosan and nodded, "Welcome to the return of Third Young Master!"
The man saluted and his voice was very loud.
For the ancestor of the Jin family to celebrate his birthday, some direct descendants of the family will return in advance to prepare. As the direct grandson of the third elder, Jin Rui has returned more than a month in advance. At this moment, the entire Jinling City has begun to dress up, and everywhere in the city also looks quite special.
Happy. Although he had been mentally prepared, Kong Laosan was still a little shocked when he just stepped into the city. The houses and pavilions in the whole city can be divided into three categories: bamboo houses, stone houses and jade buildings.
The bluestone pavement looks extremely luxurious, and the whole city is integrated. Stepping into it, traces of spiritual power escape from under your feet, wrapping the whole person warmly. Feeling this extremely rich spiritual power, Mr. Kong
San couldn't help but look at his feet, as if he was exploring something.
"Haha, Brother Kong, you don't need to look at it. The entire Jinling City is built on a main spiritual vein, and the spiritual power is extremely abundant. If you practice here, it will be no worse than your sect's cave heaven paradise!" Jin Rui said proudly.
.
Hearing this, Kong Laosan was stunned. Jin Rui's reminder reminded Kong Laosan of a legend about Jinling City. He nodded and said, "Sure enough, when I heard that Jinling City was...
It was made by the ancestors of the Jin family using countless rare jade minerals, and it has become a magic weapon. It is said that when activated, its power can be as powerful as that of the old monster Nascent Soul. I wonder if this is true or not?"
Kong Laosan said something seemingly casually, but secretly stared at Jin Rui's expression. However, after he said these words, an obvious embarrassed and bitter smile flashed across the latter's face, which made Kong Laosan
The third child kept frowning.
"Fellow Taoist, it's better not to believe such absurd rumors. If Jinling City really has become a magic weapon, how can the entire imperial capital be divided into three parts?" Jin Rui said with certainty, seeming to dismiss the rumors at all.
.And Kong Laosan’s spiritual thoughts swept across Jinling City, and were immediately blocked by an overbearing restraining force. He couldn’t detect any information at all, and he couldn’t help but shake his head.
"Let's go, you can rest at my place for a few days. There is still about a month before the ancestor's birthday. During this time, you can wander around at will. With this sign, except for some special places in the city,
The rest can go!" As he said that, several people had already fled towards the center of the city.
The entire city can be divided into two parts, the inner and outer parts, to distinguish between secular mortals and immortal cultivators. Of course, this boundary is only approximate, but within the time of a stick of incense, Kong Laosan and others have arrived at the center of the city.
The headquarters of the Jin family is located here.
Due to the restriction, flight escape is prohibited here, so Kong Laosan and others had no choice but to walk toward the Xiyuan where Jin Rui was. Along the way, they finally saw the tip of the iceberg of the Jin family's heritage, including rockeries in the courtyard, warm water, and corridors.
The eaves are surrounded by all the work of skilled craftsmen, each table, each pavilion, and even each plant and tree are all spent countless thoughts. Even a person like Kong Laosan who doesn't care much about external things can't help but marvel.
Half an hour later, the two came to a unique courtyard. After making arrangements for Kong Laosan, Jin Rui left in a hurry, as if there was something important.
After living here, Kong Laosan seemed to be at peace, breathing and practicing every day, as if he was waiting for something. Since Mr. Li asked him to come, he would naturally find a way to find him, and he didn't need to worry about it. But for Mr. Li's
Kong Laosan also vaguely guessed what he was thinking. He was just secretly snooping on Jin Lingping's news through Jin Rui's relationship, and then waiting for an opportunity to act.
More than ten days later, as Elder Jin's birthday approached, the whole Jinling City gradually became lively. Many family disciples came with their families to congratulate them, and even some sect disciples came to join in the fun, but Elder Kong
3. This courtyard is as deserted as ever.
In the beginning, Jin Rui could occasionally come over to chat, but in recent days, apart from a few servants taking care of the courtyard, Kong Laosan was the only one left meditating in the house.
In the evening of this day, the silver moon shattered on the ground through the branches and leaves, and the whole yard was quiet. Several low seedlings around were swaying with the breeze. Under an old sycamore tree, on the bluestone round table, there was a pot of good wine.
The third child was tasting it alone, looking quite enjoying it.
The wine is good wine. It was given to me by Zhou Jiufeng and Yunsu. Tonight, Kong Laosan was tired of practicing. After taking a few sips, he suddenly felt a ball of fire in his stomach. A trace of spiritual power spread from the wine to his limbs and bones. He almost couldn't help it.
He groaned happily, and when his spiritual power was gone, Kong Laosan gently exhaled a cloud of turbid air in his stomach, and looked at the half-empty wine bottle on the table, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"This is real spiritual wine. This pot of spiritual wine alone probably requires at least nearly a thousand spiritual stones. Those two girls gave it to each other for two pots. Where can you get so many spiritual stones to brew it?"
Kong Laosan said silently in his heart, and then shook his head. In his mind, he unconsciously thought of Zhou Jiufeng's fiery delicate body in the forest outside Guiming Sect, and suddenly felt strange feelings. Since he was reborn in this world, Kong Laosan
The third child has never been close to a woman. When he lost the Ghost Flag, the beautiful image of the Chen family lady still remained in his mind. But before he had time to think about it, his face changed slightly, and a strange restlessness appeared above his dantian from the blood curse.
The drum rose up, but before he could move, a little yellow light spread out from the extreme fire, completely eliminating the power of the blood curse.
After calming down, Kong Laosan smiled bitterly and shook his head.
When the Ji Dao Fire was stimulated by the blood curse, it automatically entered the body. If it had not been suppressed by the Ji Dao Fire, I am afraid that I would have died in the process of advancing to the tenth level of Qi Refining. However, Kong Laosan could clearly feel that as time passed,
As time goes by, the balance between the two seems to be slowly tilting.
The power of the evil curse is mysterious and unpredictable. It can actually absorb strength from one's own emotional fluctuations and turn it into its original power. Now Kong Laosan is trying his best to avoid large emotional fluctuations. But for now, it seems that within a few years,
The ultimate fire will no longer be able to suppress the power of the blood curse, and by then I am afraid that I will really become a murderous and bloodthirsty demon.
Sighing softly, he drank the spiritual wine in the flask in one gulp, letting the strands of spiritual power rise from his belly and dissipate towards his limbs and bones.
After finishing the drink and having enough rest, Kong Laosan was about to go back to his room. Just as he stood up, he suddenly noticed something. His eyes instantly returned to their original calmness and wisdom, and he looked under the moon shadow on the left, with a slight curve in the corner of his mouth.
