The Han Province was adjacent to the Zang Province. It could be said to be the largest province in the Myriad Demon Continent. It was at least three times larger than the Zang Province. However, it was cold all year round. Eight out of ten days, there would be snow. Therefore, the number of demons living here was the least, less than half of the population of the Zang Province.
Most of the demons were gathered in the major cities of the Han Province. As a result, there were very few demons on the vast ice plains.
However, this vast snowfield was not barren. There were countless cold-attributed magical beasts living on the ice plains. Moreover, in the depths of the vast ice plains and some snow-capped peaks that were covered with snow all year round, there were all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures that had long been extinct in other places. Occasionally, there would be powerful demon companions coming here to search for treasures.
At this moment, a black escape light rushed over silently from a distance and stopped at the top of a rather remote ice and snow mountain.
The black light dissipated, revealing a man in a green robe. It was Liu Ming.
However, at this moment, his face was covered with a faint layer of black qi. His face could not be seen clearly, and his aura was also deliberately restrained.
On his shoulder, there was a palm-sized silver scorpion. It was Scorpion.
However, Scorpion's body at this moment looked slightly different from before. There were several black spirit patterns on its silver carapace.
Moreover, the aura it exuded had reached the mid-Celestial Phenomenon level.
Now it had been more than a year since the battle in Yourong City. Originally, with Liu Ming's speed, it would only take more than a month at most to reach the Han Province. However, on the way here, Scorpion accidentally found a Demon Marrow Mine.
The Demon Marrow Stone had a very good effect on her cultivation. In addition, there was still plenty of time. Liu Ming stayed near the mine for about a year and opened a temporary cave residence.
With the power of the Demon Marrow Mine, Scorpion finally broke through to the mid-Celestial Phenomenon realm a month ago. Her strength had greatly increased, which made Liu Ming a little overjoyed.
This time, he was about to enter the Devil Abyss Secret Realm without any help. However, he was alone after all. Scorpion's strength was already extremely strong. Now that she had advanced to the mid-Celestial Phenomenon realm, her strength was not inferior to ordinary late-Celestial Phenomenon realm demons. She was enough to be a great help to him.
Liu Ming stood on the peak for a long time. After looking around, he immediately looked in a direction.
The black qi on the surface of his body rolled, and Mo Tian's figure appeared. He also looked in the direction that Liu Ming was looking at.
The mountain peak where Liu Ming was at at the moment was one of the continuous snow-capped mountains, and the place he was looking at was a huge glacier canyon deep in the mountain range. In the canyon, for some reason, there was a large amount of gray mist, which was quite dazzling in this snow-white world.
"That's right. It should be here. There is only slightly more than a year before the opening of the Devil Abyss. The Abyss Qi has already started to spread out." Mo Tian's eyes flashed as he spoke.
Although he was still very far away from the canyon, he could clearly sense the dense demonic qi that was emitting from the gray gas.
"Master …" The Scorpion that was lying on Liu Ming's shoulder rubbed its front pincers and called out. It seemed to be yearning for the gray gas.
Although he was still very far away from the canyon, he could clearly sense the dense demonic qi that was emitted from the gray gas, as well as various other mixed gases.
"Master …" The Scorpion that was lying on Liu Ming's shoulder rubbed its front pincers and called out. It seemed to be yearning for the gray gas.
"Don't be impatient." Liu Ming gently stroked the Scorpion's body. His eyes flickered with purple light.
The surroundings of the valley might be quiet, but it wasn't uninhabited. Within the range of his divine sense, he could already sense several auras hiding in the nearby mountains. However, they seemed to be some Jin Dan realm demons.
"Since we already know the location, let's leave this place. It won't be good if we are targeted." Mo Tian looked around and said.
Liu Ming nodded and waved his hand. His body flashed with green light, and the surface of his body was covered with a thick black gas again. It wrapped his body and flew into the distance.
Half a day later, a giant city appeared in Liu Ming's vision.
Looking from afar, the city occupied an area of a few thousand miles. The surrounding city walls were tall, and the tall buildings in the city were connected together. It looked abnormally prosperous.
In the center of the city, there was a giant pagoda that was thousands of feet in height. It was actually constructed with a kind of white ice crystal.
A layer of translucent white light screen was emitted from the top of the pagoda. It was like an inverted bowl that enveloped the entire city.
The surroundings were covered in snow and wind, but the city in front of them was like a giant beast that was curled up on the ground. No matter how cold the wind was, it didn't move.
Liu Ming flipped his hand and took out a piece of Jade Slips. He scanned it with his divine sense.
"The Moon City is indeed one of the top cities in the Han Province. It is indeed very imposing." He looked at the city below and said indifferently.
"There is still more than a year before the opening of the Demon Abyss. Stay here temporarily. Firstly, it is convenient. Secondly, it won't attract attention here." Mo Tian's voice echoed in Liu Ming's ears.
Liu Ming nodded and chanted. His bones made a sound, and his appearance slowly changed. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a middle-aged man with a slightly dark complexion.
This was the Dark Bone Art's Bone Transformation Art. It wasn't an illusion made with magic power. Instead, it was changing the body's bones to change the appearance. With this method of changing the figure and appearance, even a Mystic Enlightening almighty could only detect that Liu Ming had changed his appearance, but they wouldn't be able to see through his original appearance.
Subsequently, he used the Che Huan Totem and restrained half of the spiritual pressure, disguising himself as an ordinary late-stage Jin Dan Devil Dweller.
After doing all this, Liu Ming's figure moved and landed at the entrance of the city.
There were Devil Dwellers entering and exiting the city from time to time. On both sides of the entrance, there were two rows of Devil Dweller soldiers wearing dark purple armor.
When Liu Ming saw this, his eyes revealed a trace of surprise. The insignia on the Devil Dweller soldiers' armor was exactly the same as the robes of Huangfu Liushui and Mo Tian. It was the style of the Central Imperial Court.
"There is nothing strange about this. The four prestigious clans aren't interested in a sparsely populated province like the Han Province. Therefore, the Han Province's cities are managed by the Central Imperial Court." Mo Tian seemed to have noticed Liu Ming's surprise and said indifferently.
Liu Ming's expression changed, but he didn't say anything. After paying the entrance fee, he walked into the Moon City.
The cold wind was whistling outside the city, and the snowflakes were dancing. Once he entered the city, the wind and snow outside instantly disappeared. The surrounding temperature was suitable, and the light was bright. It was as though he had arrived in another world.
Liu Ming raised his brows and walked to a street in the city as though nothing had happened.
The Moon City was similar to other cities. There were some shops on both sides of the street, and they were selling some materials, elixirs, Devil Artifacts, and other items.
Liu Ming took a few casual glances. Due to the geographical reasons, the materials and ores displayed in the shops were mostly of the ice attribute. However, they were all ordinary items, and none of them could catch his eyes.
After wandering around the city for a while, Liu Ming lost interest and began to walk towards the center of the city, looking for a place to stay.
"Senior, please wait a moment." At this moment, a young man in a brown robe walked out of a nearby shop and stopped Liu Ming.
Liu Ming turned his head and glanced at the young man. This person was only at the Spirit Apostle Stage, which was the weakest on the Thousand Demon Continent. However, his eyes were smart and he looked quite clever.
"What's the matter?" He said with a frown.
"Senior, please don't blame me. It looks like you have just entered the city. Are you looking for a place or doing something? My surname is Lu, and I am very familiar with the Moon City. I can lead the way for you. After you are done, you only need to pay a small amount of magic crystals. "The young man in brown robe said with a smile.
"So it's Feng Xinzi. Just nice, I am looking for a quiet place to stay. Do you know where there is one in the city? If you can satisfy me, this thing is yours. "Liu Ming showed a smile on his face. He flipped his hand and took out a black long blade.
This was a high tier magic weapon. For a Spirit Apostle like the young man in brown robe, its value was self-evident.
Sure enough, when the young man in brown robe saw the black long knife in Liu Ming's hand, his face immediately showed a look of excitement.
He took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart. He nodded heavily and said, "Senior, don't worry. I will definitely satisfy you."
Liu Ming smiled slightly and waved his hand, throwing the black long knife to the young man in brown robe.
The young man in brown robe caught the long knife in a hurry. There was a little doubt in his eyes, but it was immediately relieved.
The person in front of him was many times stronger than him, so naturally, he would not be afraid of him taking the money and not doing the work.
The young man in brown robe put away the black long knife carefully and bowed deeply to Liu Ming.
"Senior, please come with me. The good residences in the Moon City are concentrated in the eastern part of the city, but recently there has been a sudden increase in people coming here and they are all staying for a long time. Now there are not many quiet places to stay." The young man in brown robe said as he walked toward the eastern part of the city.
Liu Ming's face changed. He waved his hand and a black gas wrapped around the figure of the young man in brown robe. He flew directly toward the eastern part of the city.
The young man in brown robe was shocked. He immediately understood the situation and immediately let out a sigh of relief.
The surrounding scenery quickly passed by. In a few breaths, the two arrived at the eastern part of the Moon City and slowly landed on a street.
Although the street was not noisy, there were a lot more people than at the entrance of the city.
"Why? Are there many outsiders in the city now? "Liu Ming looked around and asked casually.
"Yes, since more than a year ago, some strange faces began to appear in the city, and their cultivation level doesn't seem to be low. Many inns and temporary cave houses in the city have been booked by them. It seems that they are going to stay here for a long time. Now the best inns in the city are full, but senior, don't worry, I know a place. There are some empty residences there, and it is very secluded. It should meet senior's requirements. "The young man in brown robe said and walked in a direction with Liu Ming.
Liu Ming's eyes flickered slightly, but his face did not show any strange expression. He followed behind the young man in brown robe.
After a series of twists and turns on the street, the two arrived at a rather quiet place.
There were many dark green bamboos planted here, and there was even a clear stream winding through the bamboo forest. The noise from the distant street was almost inaudible here.
The two passed through the bamboo forest, and a courtyard appeared in front of them. There was a plaque hanging in the courtyard with the words "Jade Bamboo House" written on it.
