The next morning, in Floating Spear City, an important training town of the Federation, Rusty Lake Disposal Center.
It was also the magical equipment graveyard where Li Yao had grown up.
In the three years that he had been away, countless scavengers still made a living by recycling abandoned magical equipment.
Although the sun had just risen, countless scavengers were desperately climbing up the crumbling garbage mountain, trying to find every piece of magical equipment that could be recycled.
On the east side of the magical equipment graveyard, two groups of people were confronting each other.
Each group had thirty to fifty people. Many of them were holding iron pipes that were full of steel nails, and even more of them were waving sharp blades that were shining coldly.
One of the two leaders was thin and somewhat stooped. His skin was brown, and his triangular eyes were beaming with treachery and cruelty. He looked like a hungry wolf from the Wasteland.
The other person was tall and sturdy. His muscles were so developed that his clothes were torn into pieces. His eyes were red, making him look like an angry bear.
"Fat Dragon, we are all making a living in the magical equipment graveyard. Competition is competition, but you don't have to be so ruthless, do you? You heavily wounded two of my brothers just because of an abandoned shuttle. Do you really think that I, Wild Wolf, have become a vegetarian now that I'm old? "
The triangular-eyed man gripped a dagger and said gloomily.
"Wild Wolf, don't think that I don't know. Last week, when three of my brothers were recycling magical equipment, the garbage mountain suddenly collapsed and broke four of their legs. It was all your doing!"
Fat Dragon was a brawny man, but he was not a simple-minded man. He laughed and said viciously.
Wild Wolf and Fat Dragon represented the two most powerful groups of scavengers in the magical equipment graveyard. As their scale grew larger and larger, all kinds of conflicts were occurring. A battle between the two parties was unavoidable.
The atmosphere was getting more and more intense, and it seemed that a single spark would cause an explosion.
Some of them had already wrapped their wrists with cloth to prevent them from slipping and bleeding during the battle. Some of them had prepared stimulants and were ready to inject them during the battle.
Suddenly, an incomparably sharp shriek came from the sky, as if a meteor was tearing through the sky. It was also like a huge bird swooping down from the sky!
Everybody was so scared by the shriek that they shrank their necks. They felt that the earth was shaking.
Countless broken pieces of magical equipment were rolling down from the garbage mountains around them.
Fat Dragon and Wild Wolf's expressions changed at the same time. They couldn't restrain their subordinates at all. No matter how ear-piercing their roars were, they were completely covered by the explosions in the air.
Every scavenger stared at the sky, dumbfounded, as if they had been hit by a spell.
An extremely luxurious flying shuttle, which was as round as jade and emitted a faint silver glow, flew over the magical equipment graveyard.
It seemed that the destination of this luxurious flying shuttle was nearby, and it had begun to decelerate and descend. Circles of spiritual waves spread out like ripples in the air, spreading out into silver halos one after another. They kept expanding and thinning, until they turned into thousands of light spots like fireflies and disappeared into the air.
"This is …"
As scavengers, even if Fat Dragon and Wild Wolf had never ridden in a real luxurious flying shuttle, they had at least seen it in various magazines and on the Internet. His ability to distinguish luxurious magical equipment was very strong.
However, even the well-informed scavenger Wild Wolf had never seen such a beautiful flying shuttle. It was so breathtakingly beautiful that it didn't look like a product of the Tian Yuan Realm at all.
"Other than the magical equipment graveyard, there are only slums and low-rent housing districts near Rust Lake. Why is such a high-end flying shuttle landing here?"
"This is unbelievable! I once saw the mayor of Floating Spear City. Even the leaders of the major sects in the city don't take such luxurious flying shuttles! "
"Who is on the flying shuttle? What is it doing here? "
An unimaginable big shot appearing here was certainly not a good thing. These scavengers, who wandered on the edge of the law, were most sensitive to danger.
Fat Dragon and Wild Wolf looked at each other and forgot about the bloody battle that was about to take place.
"Look. This luxurious flying shuttle has landed in Chaoyang New Village! "
"Chaoyang New Village? Isn't the man on the flying shuttle Vulture Li Yao? "
Everyone's face changed color.
Chaoyang New Village was one of the cheapest low-rent housing districts in Floating Spear City. Even scavengers like them wouldn't want to live there if they had a little money. Since it was built several decades ago, no big shot had ever walked out of it.
Until three years ago, a big shot had walked out of this place. Vulture Li Yao!
Born as an orphan in the magical equipment graveyard, he had become a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator before the age of 25. In the 500-year history of the Xing Yao Federation, he was one of the few legends!
Fiend Blade Peng Hai, who had been quite famous in Floating Spear City a few years ago, was nothing compared to Vulture Li Yao!
Cultivation was difficult in the Tian Yuan Realm. A Building Foundation Stage Cultivator was qualified to be a lecturer in a university, an elder in a sect, or the leader of a battle group in the military. In the eyes of these scavengers, they were super big shots in the clouds!
"Vulture Li Yao is really rich. Such a luxurious flying shuttle. I'm afraid that a small piece of its skin would be enough to buy the entire magical equipment graveyard!"
"Years ago, I fought against him. I'm really scared now that I've fought against a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator!"
"I was even kicked by him once. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Being kicked by a Building Foundation Stage Cultivator was definitely worth it!"
Scavengers such as Fat Dragon and Wild Wolf didn't get along well with Li Yao at all. Although the guy was a high and mighty Cultivator right now and wouldn't stoop to their level, who knew if Li Yao would recall some unpleasant memories if they kept fighting and causing trouble?
Fat Dragon and Wild Wolf looked at each other. Filled with jealousy and mixed feelings, they led their subordinates and left quietly.
For some reason, when they saw that Vulture Li Yao, who used to rummage through abandoned magical equipment in the garbage, had become a high and mighty Cultivator who was driving such a luxurious flying shuttle, they didn't even have the mood to fight anymore.
The fate of different people was indeed different!
In Chaoyang Village …
Li Yao could've parked the flying shuttle borrowed from Occult Orbs Fellowship in midair and flown into the room through the window.
But he chose to land on the ground and walk into the room slowly through the dark, damp stairwell.
There were still four days to go before the trip to Ultimacy.
An expedition ten thousand lightyears away was a hundred times more dangerous than an ordinary Occult Orb exploration.
The first batch of thirty Orb Patrollers was going to take part in the expedition. They were either the core disciples of the major families or sects or the heirs of the best Cultivators. Naturally, they had a lot of complicated relationships to deal with.
Therefore, Occult Orbs Fellowship didn't arrange any training missions in the last few days. Instead, they were asked to go home. It was a reunion and farewell to their family and friends.
Although Li Yao didn't have many family members, Floating Spear City was the place where he grew up after all. There were a lot of things that he missed here.
In the beginning, he didn't think that his hometown was very precious. But when he realized that he was about to travel ten thousand lightyears away, he somehow had the urge to go back to Floating Spear City.
Just now, he intentionally lowered his altitude. The reason why he flew over the magical equipment graveyard was that he wanted to take a look at the place where he grew up.
Although his life back then was full of hardships and sabers, what came to his mind was more warmth and brilliance than anything else.
The mottled walls and colorful graffiti in the hallway of Rising Sun Village reminded him of the past again.
"I haven't been back for three whole years. Even the last time I was back in Floating Spear City, I still haven't returned. Last time I visited Floating Spear City, I left in a hurry after my meeting with Senior Brother Peng Hai.
"Now that I look at it. Everything here is exactly the same as when I left.
"However, I have changed!
"From a little scavenger struggling in the mountains of sewage and garbage in the magical equipment graveyard, I have become a Cultivator in the middle level of the Building Foundation Stage who is about to go ten thousand lightyears away to fight for the Federation and myself!"
Li Yao walked to the door of his house.
The rusty iron door. It was tightly sealed by spider webs. The keyhole was blocked by rust, too.
Li Yao took a deep breath. He pressed the keyhole softly and opened the lock with his spiritual energy. Then he pushed the door open and walked in.
Most of them were precious materials left to him by his father. A few years ago, they were packed and shipped to the Grand Desolate War Institution.
However, there were still a lot of magical equipment fragments piled up in the corner like a mountain.
There were also various antique crystal processors dangling from the ceiling. They were swaying and colliding with each other in the wind, making "Ding Ding Dang Dang Dang" sounds like wind chimes.
This place was close to the magical equipment graveyard. The rent was very cheap, but very few people would rent it. After Li Yao was admitted to the university, he still kept this house. It could be considered a home.
On his way to the Grand Desolate War Institution, he awakened his spiritual root and became a Cultivator. When the news spread back to Floating Spear City, the entire city was shocked. Originally, there was no lack of thieves in the magical equipment graveyard. However, after knowing that this was the residence of a Cultivator, no one dared to have any ideas about Li Yao.
Therefore, after three years, except for the thick layer of dust covering the room, there was not the slightest bit of change.
Li Yao glanced at every corner of the room. To his surprise, he found that the room was much smaller than he remembered. It was almost like two pigeon cages.
However, in his memory, this was his entire world. Countless beautiful memories had been left behind.
In Li Yao's mind, many familiar pictures flashed past like a merry-go-round.
His father had taught him how to maintain magical equipment in this place. He had also instilled all kinds of bizarre knowledge into his little head.
At the beginning, he had been extremely resistant. But in the end, he had been able to read the maintenance manual of a crystal warship with great interest. There were too many traces of his growth in these two shabby rooms.
Sighing slightly, Li Yao intended to put everything into his Cosmos Ring. But after thinking for a while, he decided to keep them as they were. He simply picked a 'Will-O' -the-wisp IV 'crystal processor from all the antique crystal processors, which had been refined by the' Blue Flame Sect '124 years ago.
The crystal processor's performance was quite ordinary. However, its appearance was quite peculiar. It was shaped into the shape of a skull. It was very valuable.
Li Yao swept it into his Cosmos Ring as a souvenir.
He closed the door softly and jumped out of the window. A luxury shuttle was already waiting outside.
