Heaven Martial City was backed by the main peak of the Great Desolate Mountain and on its right was the Cloud River. It was the center of the Great Desolate Mountain and also the holy city of the barbarians.
Its position was equivalent to the Buddhist's Ling Tai Mountain or the Daoist's Dragon Tiger Peak.
The city had a population of more than 70 million people and gathered hundreds of barbarian tribes. Every barbarian tribe sent their representatives to form the Blood Oath Alliance.
The Blood Oath Alliance was in charge of all matters in Heaven Martial City and also had the responsibility to mediate the conflicts between the barbarians and arbitrate when necessary. It was extremely influential within the barbarians.
Such a huge organization would naturally not be controlled by a single barbarian tribe.
The Blood Oath Alliance had thirteen managing elders who were in charge of daily affairs. For important matters, all members would be gathered to vote.
The positions of the thirteen managing elders would be changed every sixty years. The top five barbarians would have the right to challenge for the position of managing elder. If they won, they would replace the original managing elder.
The system of thirteen managing elders determined the importance of these thirteen positions.
When the Blood Oath Alliance was first established, in order to fight for the position of managing elder, the tribes suffered heavy casualties.
But after ten thousand years, the upper class barbarians gradually established an unshakable advantage and controlled the Blood Oath Alliance.
From then on, the strong became stronger and the weak became weaker.
In these hundreds of years, the position of the thirteen elders of the Blood Oath Alliance had never changed.
This was the first time Gao Zhengyang came to Heaven Martial City. The history of Heaven Martial City was popularized by Miss Xiong Qi beside him.
As a bear, Xiong Qi was tall and strong with dark skin and bulging muscles on her arms. Luckily, her body had the distinct curves of a woman and people would not mistake her for a man.
Actually, Xiong Qi was not ugly. Her big black eyes were very beautiful and her words and actions were steady. It was easy for people to trust her and she was very approachable.
After Xiong Qi gave Gao Zhengyang a simple introduction of the history of Heaven Martial City, she pointed at the huge palace in the center of the city and said, "Mister Fortune, that is the Blood Oath Palace. In the past, hundreds of barbarian tribes swore an oath of blood here and established order among the barbarians …"
Following the direction of Xiong Qi's finger, Gao Zhengyang saw a black and red palace that was hundreds of feet high.
The hall seemed to be built with a special stone material. The lines were simple and direct, and the triangular dome looked unusually strong. There were almost no decorative patterns on the top or bottom, but the black stone revealed a dark red, as if it was soaked in blood.
Looking at it from afar, one could feel the rugged and primitive atmosphere of the hall.
"This place was built by more than a hundred Berserkers ten thousand years ago. It has weathered countless storms, and now, it is the holy land in the hearts of all Berserkers."
Xiong Qi said proudly, "Every year, there will be barbarians coming from afar to pay their respects. In Heaven Martial City, you can see all the Berserker tribes … "
Gao Zhengyang nodded. Heaven Martial City was indeed very different.
Like the Lion Camel Mountain and the Green Hill Platform, they were either rough or exquisite, each with their own characteristics.
The buildings in Heaven Martial City had all kinds of styles. The strange styles were originally very messy, but the various barbarians that came and went became the unique scenery of Heaven Martial City.
The crude and primitive Blood Alliance Hall suppressed the chaos with its powerful presence and formed a strange order. It also endowed Heaven Martial City with the temperament of the barbarians.
This was also something that the Lion Camel Mountain and the Green Hill Platform could not compare to.
Xiong Qi continued to lead Gao Zhengyang forward, while casually introducing the situation of the various places.
"The Golden Summit Street opposite is full of Golden Wolf people. Their leather tanning skills are unparalleled in the world, and the leather goods here are also the best in the world …"
The Golden Summit Street, which was separated by a long street, was bustling with people, and it was unusually lively. Golden Wolf people with golden fur, most of them only wore a leather vest, and they were quite eye-catching in the bustling crowd.
Their hawking was also unusually loud. Even across the street, their noise was also extremely ear-piercing.
When Gao Zhengyang was in the Eastern Barren Mountain, he had killed a group of Golden Wolf people, so he was quite familiar with the Golden Wolf people.
The group of Golden Wolves that were hawking their wares had clearly lost a lot of their savagery and savagery. Instead, they had gained the sophistication of merchants.
Although their appearance was similar, their spirit and temperament were completely different.
Xiong Qi saw that Gao Zhengyang was quite interested and said: "Why don't we go and have a look, the leather armor and other protective gear here are excellent and very practical …"
"No, we will go and have a look when we have time."
Gao Zhengyang was just thinking about the past, and he was not interested in the Golden Wolf people.
The Blood God Flag had also been upgraded to the Saint level. Even if he killed all the Golden Wolf people, there would not be any gain. He was even less interested in the Golden Wolf people.
Xiong Qi did not persuade him anymore. This guest was mysterious. Although he claimed to be from the Bat Race, she always felt that something was wrong.
From the appearance, Fu Yuan was thin, his pale face was thin and fleshless, and his eyes were covered with a layer of gray membrane. He was exactly the same as the other Bat Race.
He wore a black robe with faint dark golden lines on it, which was extremely luxurious. There was also a jade pendant on his waist, and a dark golden ring on his finger.
All these were in line with the identity of the Bat Race. Xiong Qi was knowledgeable and could not see any problems.
She did not want to delve into it. This was a friend of an elder in the clan, and she was only responsible for entertaining him. As for the identity of the other party, it had nothing to do with her.
Xiong Qi was extremely smart, and she knew that some secrets were better left unknown.
Xiong Qi led Gao Zhengyang, turning left and right, and after walking for a while, they arrived at an inn called Peace Fortune.
The front hall of the Peace Fortune Inn was not big, but after passing through the front hall, there was a large area of houses. The flowers and trees set off each other, cleverly separating the houses. It also made this place look extremely quiet.
The waiter who led the way was from the Rat Race. He was not tall, and his small eyes were rolling around. There were two small moustaches on his lips, and he looked especially agile and slippery.
"My lord, this Green Lotus House imitates the style of Jiangnan. It is exquisite, elegant, and quiet. You booked it two months in advance. If you come now, you won't be able to book a room no matter what … "
The waiter of the Rat Race smiled humbly, and his words were filled with enthusiasm.
"This house has all kinds of tools. If you need anything, just ring that golden bell, and I will immediately come to serve you."
Gao Zhengyang looked around the house. It was not big, but the decorations were exquisite and clean.
There was a small rockery in the courtyard, and a clear spring came through the wall, circling around the rockery, and then went through the wall. In the middle of the courtyard, there was a rattan rack covered with green vines.
Not only could it shelter from the sun, but it also looked full of vitality. Inside, there were a few bamboo chairs and a tea table.
It must be very comfortable and leisurely for three to five friends to sit here, drink tea, and chat.
In the Heaven Martial City of the Barbarians, there was such an authentic Jiangnan style, which surprised Gao Zhengyang.
Of course, no matter how exquisite this place was, it could not compare to Jiangnan, and it could not compare to Swallow Dock.
Swallow Dock, which gathered the style of the world, made Gao Zhengyang quite nostalgic.
"You can leave, I will look for you if there is anything."
Gao Zhengyang did not like the crafty and talkative waiter, so he threw a bone coin to the waiter and let him leave first.
The waiter of the Rat Race took the bone coin, and with a face full of surprise, he quickly bowed to express his gratitude.
In the Heaven Martial City, silver and copper were generally used as currency. Bone coins were made from the bones of demonic beasts, which contained vitality and were very valuable.
Two bone coins were enough to stay in the Green Lotus House for a day.
For the waiter of the Rat Race, a bone coin was half a month's salary, so he was naturally very excited.
He bowed, and his head almost touched the ground. He retreated all the way out of the courtyard, and then turned around to leave.
Xiong Qi said: "Anfu Inn is also an old inn with hundreds of years of history, and it is extremely safe. Sir, you can stay here. I will arrange the matter of the Nine Ring Mountain. If there is anything, I will come and inform you. "
Gao Zhengyang nodded.
Xiong Qi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "If Sir is bored, there is a gambling house and a restaurant in the south of the city, you can pass the time. However, the people there are complicated, so if Sir wants to play, it is best to find me. Or, you can find a waiter in the inn to lead the way, and it will also save a lot of trouble … "
"Well, just go and do your work …"
Gao Zhengyang said casually: "If there is really something, I will definitely find you."
"The formation of the Heaven Martial City is very powerful, and most of the communication spells can't be used. If there is anything, you can find the Yan Race to send a letter or something. They have been in this business for tens of thousands of years, and they are the most trustworthy. "
Xiong Qi said: "Just tell them to send a letter to Xiong Qi in the seventh old house on Blackwood Street."
Gao Zhengyang smiled. The barbarians also specialized in express delivery, it was a little interesting. "Well, just go and do your work. If there is anything, I will contact you. "
Xiong Qi still felt a little worried, but it was not good to say more. She nodded and strode out of the courtyard.
Gao Zhengyang randomly found a bamboo chair, sat down, and closed his eyes to rest and adjust his breath.
He only stayed at the Green Mountain Terrace for a few days, and then quietly left alone. He summoned Little Red, and quickly arrived at the Heaven Martial City.
Many people knew that he was coming, but with Little Red's help, no one expected him to come so quickly and so early.
Unless Xiong Ba sold him out.
However, Xiong Ba wouldn't take things too hard. No matter how great the benefits were, it couldn't compare to the temptation of advancing to the Saint level. Tyrant Bear would never betray him before he obtained the Two-Phase Fruit.
There was still more than a month before entering the Nine Ringed Mountain. Gao Zhengyang wanted to take advantage of this time to heal his injuries as soon as possible.
First, he was stabbed by Yun Jiutian, and then he was hit by the Heaven Mark Sword Will.
Yun Jiutian's sword wound was nothing. With the Unbreakable Vajra Body, he had long recovered. The key was the sword intent hidden in the wound.
Gao Zhengyang had originally thought that since Yun Jiutian was not at the Saint level, no matter how strong his sword will was, it would be quickly worn down without anyone controlling it.
However, he soon realized that the sword intent was extremely unique. It resonated with the unusually sharp sword intent in the Green Destiny Sword, as if it had fused with his heart. He couldn't get rid of it no matter what he did.
What was even more troublesome was that he had been hit by another Sword Will of the Heaven Mark. This Sword Will was just as strong, even stronger than Yun Jiutian's.
The two sword intents did not give way to each other, and as soon as they came into contact with each other, it would cause the sword intents to clash and shake.
It felt as if two peerless swordsmen were dueling in his heart. The two swordsmen were fine, but his heart had been shattered countless times.
It was only because his Diamond Body was extremely tough that he could hold on until now.
However, if this went on, he wouldn't be able to hold on much longer.
The Nine Ringed Mountain was dangerous, so he had to be even more vigilant. Before that, it would be best if he could deal with the two sword intents.
Gao Zhengyang sat there for three days without moving. Occasionally, there would be voices from next door, but it didn't affect him.
On the fourth day, the courtyard next door became even livelier. There seemed to be more and more people, and the chatter and laughter became noisier.
Gao Zhengyang couldn't be bothered to create trouble. He focused and studied the sword intent in his heart. Even if the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked, it wouldn't affect him.
A series of knocks on the door woke him up with a start.
(Everyone can understand that there are ups and downs in one's state. I won't say any heroic words. When I've adjusted, I'll try to do more.
Also, I want to say a few words about this book. When I was writing this book, I told my friends that I wanted to write a fantasy epic. Of course, I was joking, but I was serious when I wrote. Some people also said, "Aren't you writing a fantasy routine? Maybe it's a routine, but it's still a fantasy story that you're seriously thinking about.
I hope that I can write it with more vigor, with more interest, and with more details, so that the fictional world will be a little more interesting, and so that the story will have its own core and something. Compared to myself, I feel that I've improved. I've made better adjustments in terms of story and personal interest, and I've also become more familiar with the words. I've used some tricks in terms of character design, but correspondingly, it's more distinct.
