They were lucky enough to encounter a group of bandits, and they were lucky enough to obtain useful information from the bandit leader. Under the lead of the Burning Sky Ruler, they headed straight for Moontrace City.
The distance to the Moon Trace City was not far. A day later, everyone was able to faintly see the outline of a city appearing on an endless plain from afar.
It was obvious that this was Moontrace City. Within a radius of a thousand miles, Moontrace City was the only city. At the same time, it was also the only city on the Illusionary Moon Plains.
After finally finding the city, they quickly arrived at the city gate. However, they were stopped by the guards at the city gate.
"Are you from outside?" Facing such a large group of unfamiliar guests, the guard was a little suspicious, so he asked.
When he heard the guard, a Dao King Realm expert stepped forward and smiled, "My Lord, we're all from outside the city."
"Is it because of the Illusionary Moon Gathering? Alright, ten low-grade spirit stones for each person to enter the city. " Hearing the Dao King Realm expert's words, the guard carefully sized them up, then said in a bad mood.
Illusionary Moon Gathering? He didn't know what it was, but it should be some sort of gathering. Perhaps it was very famous. Perhaps it was because of the Illusionary Moon Gathering that there were many cultivators entering Moontrace City, so the guard didn't think too much about it. He only thought that Xiao Chen and the others were also here to participate in the Illusionary Moon Gathering.
He didn't ask too much. If he asked about the Illusionary Moon Gathering, he would be giving himself away. In any case, as long as they entered the city, it shouldn't be difficult to find out about the Illusionary Moon Gathering.
After paying nearly a thousand low-grade spirit stones, Xiao Chen and the others were finally able to enter the city.
It had to be said that the cost of living in Moontrace City was very high. Just the entrance fee alone required ten low-grade spirit stones per person. Moreover, Moontrace City wasn't a big city in the Heavenly River Continent. It wasn't even ranked. Even so, they still dared to charge such a high entrance fee. Who knew what the famous big cities in the Heavenly River Continent would do.
Nearly a thousand low-grade spirit stones were used up just like that. However, Xiao Chen and the others did not care too much about it. Since they left the Heavenly Chen Continent, they were naturally prepared, so they naturally had a lot of money on them.
Strolling along the streets of Moon Trace City, Ye Xiwen noticed that this place was completely different from any other city in the Heavenly Chen Continent, especially the architectural style. The houses in the Heavenly Chen Continent were generally built with high-quality wood, such as fir, cypress, elm, etc.
As for the houses in Moon Trace City, they were basically all built with bluestones. Huge bluestones were polished into squares and piled up one by one to form houses.
Since the materials used were different, the shape would naturally be different as well. However, compared to the wooden houses in the Heavenly Chen Continent, the houses in the Moon Trace City that were built with stones were obviously much harder.
However, it could not be said that houses built with bluestones were better than those built with wood. The reason why there was such a big difference between the buildings of the two continents was also related to their different environments.
First of all, the Heavenly Chen Continent was not as chaotic as the Sky River Continent. It could be said that the Heavenly Chen Continent was basically in a relatively peaceful era. Other than the war with the Demonic Cultivators, there had not been any large scale battles for thousands of years. Therefore, using wood to build houses was extremely suitable.
Although the houses built with wood were obviously not as hard as those built with bluestones, the construction time was shorter and the cost was not huge. It was also easier to build, which was naturally more suitable for the relatively peaceful Heavenly Chen Continent. In any case, the Heavenly Chen Continent did not erupt with wars from time to time, so there was no need for bluestone houses that were too hard.
However, the Sky River Continent was different. It was not as peaceful as the Heavenly Chen Continent. There were battles between various forces from time to time. Even the Saint Clans, Saint Sects, and Saint Empires would often erupt in wars. As a result, there were naturally different requirements for the buildings, or at least they had to be harder.
Therefore, even if the construction time was long and the cost was huge, the Sky River Continent still insisted on using bluestones to build houses because it was hard. When war broke out, if talismans were added, it would be able to resist the impact of the battle.
After strolling around the city, the scale of the Moon Trace City was not large, but it was not small either. It was equivalent to an ordinary city in the Heavenly Chen Continent's Central Divine Realm. However, perhaps it was because of the Illusionary Moon Convention, the Moon Trace City could be said to have a large population. Moreover, many of them were from other places. It was obvious that they had specially come to participate in the Illusionary Moon Convention.
With so many outsiders pouring into the Moon Trace City, it caused the inns and restaurants in the city to be almost full. After asking several inns, they were told that there were no empty rooms.
Since they could not find an inn, they naturally had no place to stay. Just when everyone was at their wit's end, Xiao Chen softly said to the Burning Heaven Ruler.
"Uncle Tian, I feel that we don't need to find an inn. After all, we don't know how long we will stay in the Moon Trace City. Moreover, in the future, the Moon Trace City might become a stronghold of our Heavenly Chen Continent. Therefore, we might as well directly buy a house. This way, not only will we have a place to stay, but other people from the Heavenly Chen Continent will also have a place to stay in the future."
Everyone had been looking for an inn, but Xiao Chen proposed to directly buy a house. Hearing this, the Burning Heaven Ruler's eyes lit up. That's right, why didn't I think of that?
Xiao Chen's proposal made the Burning Heaven Ruler overjoyed. That's right, everyone had just arrived in the Heavenly River Continent. They didn't know how long they would stay in the Moon Trace City. Therefore, it was better to directly buy a house. Moreover, as Xiao Chen said, even if everyone left in the future, this house could still be used as a stronghold for the people of the Heavenly Chen Continent. In the future, whoever came could stay in this house. It could be said that it was killing many birds with one stone.
"Good boy, you have a way. We'll do as you say." Without concealing his admiration for Xiao Chen, the Burning Heaven Ruler laughed heartily. Then, he pressed his big hand on Xiao Chen's head and ravaged it, expressing his affection for Xiao Chen.
After interacting with the Burning Heaven Ruler for a few days, Xiao Chen gradually understood the temperament of the Burning Heaven Ruler. Among the rulers, the Burning Heaven Ruler was perhaps the most forthright person. His temperament was very straightforward, and at the same time, he didn't have any schemes. Although he had lived for so many years, he didn't have any shrewdness. Whether he was happy or unhappy, it was directly expressed on his face. This point was very similar to Huangfu Ao. The two were indeed father and son.
After ravaging Xiao Chen for a while, the Burning Heaven Ruler brought everyone to find a restaurant and had them wait there. As for himself, he brought Xiao Chen to buy a house.
