The large city in front of them was called Dianjiang City. It was said that during the Great Demon Banishment War, the human race's great cultivators had gathered their troops here and selected three hundred cultivators to ambush the demon race that had fled. The significance of this place was extraordinary, and it was called "Dianjiang". Inside the Absolute Demon Ridge, there were thousands of miles of red soil. Half of the blood was from the cultivators that gathered here. If one wanted to go from the Chu Region to the Absolute Demon Ridge, they had to pass through this city.
If they wanted to go from the north to the Goblin Ridge, they would have to pass through this city. Otherwise, they would have to go through the endless wilderness. If they had a flying instrument, they would naturally be able to fly over it easily. However, now that flying was forbidden within a radius of three thousand miles, the cultivators would not be foolish enough to rely on their two legs to pass through the wilderness. Of course, the most important thing was that once they arrived at this city, they would be able to gather some information.
The existence of this little General City only had some symbolic meaning. In reality, the Spiritual Qi here was thin and not suitable for cultivation. Thus, the number of cultivators who gathered here in the past was sparse. But now, with the descent of the Mysterious Coffin and the inheritance in the Invincible Demon Ridge, this place suddenly became lively. Moreover, with the blessing of the Mysterious Coffin, the Spiritual Qi in the area instantly became dozens of times denser. It was like a cave of immortals.
When he arrived in front of the city, he saw that there was already a long line of people entering the city. There were two black-robed disciples standing guard in front of the city gate. These two disciples were the disciples of the Han Family, a great aristocratic family in the city. In the past, the Han Family would not have sent people to guard the city gate, but because of the sudden increase in the number of cultivators who had arrived in the past few days, they had specially sent people to guard the city gate to maintain order and avoid disaster.
"There are so many people. Do we have to line up too?"
Chu Ci glanced at the human dragon in front of the city gate and turned to Fang Xing.
Fang Xing chuckled and said, "Following me, how could I let a princess like you line up?"
Chu Ci was slightly startled and asked, "What do you have in mind?"
Fang Xing did not reply. With a push of his palms, he jumped down from the back of the wild boar and slapped the wild boar's buttocks hard. The wild boar king felt the pain and rushed toward the crowd. That imposing manner, that magnificent sight, it was like a magnificent army …
"Fang Xiaojiu, I hate you …"
Princess Chu Ci, who was sitting on the back of the wild boar, was so scared that her beautiful face turned pale.
Fang Xing laughed and shouted, "Make way, make way, the wild boars are going crazy …"
There was no need for him to shout. The people lining up in front of the city gate were all shocked. They scattered like birds and beasts, opening up a path.
"There are demonic beasts …"
"Damn, what a huge wild boar. Quick, use the flying sword …"
"Be careful not to hurt the person on the back of the wild boar …"
For a moment, there was chaos in front of the city gate. The wild boar was already charging towards the city gate.
The two disciples guarding the gate were shocked. Just as they were about to stop the wild boar, Fang Xing looked at the distance and secretly released a trace of demon spirit aura. The wild boar immediately stopped in front of the gate. It was only ten feet away from hitting the gate. Chu Ci was so scared that her legs went soft. She jumped off the back of the wild boar and stood to the side, holding her chest. She hated that bastard Fang Xing to death.
"Hehe, such a charming little beauty riding a big wild boar, it's really interesting …"
There was another group of people on horses at the side of the road. There were about seven or eight people. One of them was a young man in his twenties with a cultivation level of Foundation Establishment. He was waving a folding fan in his hand. He talked and laughed in a leisurely manner. Beside him was a woman wearing a floral dress. Her face was covered with a layer of golden muslin and there was a red mole on her forehead. There was a hint of arrogance in her eyes, as if everything she looked at was abnormally indifferent.
Behind the two of them, there were three or four expressionless old servants. Impressively, they were also at the Foundation Establishment stage. They seemed to be existences like guardians. They were all riding on armored lions. It seemed like they were also preparing to enter the city.
The one who spoke was the young man. He was smiling, and when he saw Chu Ci, his eyes lit up.
The woman with the golden muslin on her face snorted coldly. She glanced at Chu Ci and said coldly, "She's just a dirty wild girl from the countryside. Is she worthy of your praise? Since when did your standards become so low?"
Hearing this, Chu Ci's face turned red. She felt wronged.
She was the princess of the Chu region. When had she ever been called a wild girl from the countryside?
But at this moment, it really looked like it. When she was being chased by the wild boar, she did not choose where she was going in a panic. Her body was stained with a lot of mud, and she looked really dirty. Moreover, a young girl riding a wild boar all the way was really a bit unreasonable.
"Haha, I'm really sorry. I just tamed this demonic beast as a mount. I couldn't control myself. I'm sorry everyone …"
At this time, Fang Xing also ran over. He laughed and reached out to drag Chu Ci into the city.
"Fellow Daoist, since you are fated to enter Dianjiang City, the head of the Han clan will naturally welcome you. However, after entering the city, whether you are looking for opportunities or have business to attend to, please abide by the city's rules. If you have any conflicts, please settle them outside the city. This city is the place where our Nan Zhan cultivators used to expel demons. The biggest taboo is for human cultivators to kill each other inside the city. Please abide by the rules …"
The two disciples guarding the city gate didn't put on airs. They spoke to Fang Xing very politely.
"I know, I know. You can't fight inside the city. If you want to fight, do it outside!"
Fang Xing waved his hand and pulled Chu Ci's sleeve into the city.
Along the way, he saw that Chu Ci looked a little unhappy. He said, "What's wrong with you? Aren't you happy that you don't have to line up? "
Chu Ci felt wronged and said, "It's all your fault. You caused me to be called a dirty country girl!"
Fang Xing looked at her and said, "You are really dirty now!"
Chu Ci's eyes turned red. She was about to leave, but after a few steps, she turned around and walked back. She stretched out her hand to Fang Xing and said, "Give me some money. I want to buy some clean clothes and find a place to take a bath!"
Only now did she remember that she was in too much of a hurry when she escaped. She didn't even bring any Spirit Stones with her. In her storage bag, she only had a few elixirs and a few good defensive magic weapons. She wouldn't carry things like Spirit Stones with her.
Fang Xing scratched his head helplessly and said, "If I give you money, do you know where to buy it?"
Chu Ci glanced at her surroundings, and she suddenly looked a little confused.
She had a noble status and was doted on. She rarely left the imperial court, so how could she have interacted with people?
Facing the bustling crowd, she was like a fool and didn't know where to go.
"It's better if you follow me. Follow closely. I won't care if you get lost!"
Fang Xing plunged his head into the crowd and felt the corner of his clothes tighten. It was Chu Ci pulling on the corner of his clothes and following him.
Since he had come to this city, Fang Xing's main purpose was to inquire about some information. He was a sneaky person with rich experience in Jianghu. In addition, he had spirit stones in his hands and his cultivation was not weak. So, it was not difficult for him to inquire about information. He invited people to drink a pot of tea in a teahouse, toasted two jars of wine in a restaurant, and beat up two greenhorns in an alley. Then, he had more or less inquired about the information.
The opportunity of the Xuan Coffin had indeed fallen here and it had indeed been opened. However, it couldn't be entered at all times.
Where the Xuan Coffin landed, the spiritual energy and restrictions turned the land within a three thousand mile radius of the Giant-Monster Ridge into a huge formation. This formation was almost equivalent to another space. It was mysterious and unfathomable, so the cultivators called it the "Xuan Domain".
If one wanted to enter the Xuan Domain, they could only enter through the array vein when the sun rose and the first purple line shot out. Moreover, the array vein would only be open for the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn before closing. If one missed this time, they could only wait for the next day. In these few days, there had already been several groups of geniuses sent in by the protectors of the aristocratic families. The disciples of the Great Snow Mountain were among them.
However, it was very difficult to find Ancestor Wan Luo and the others. It was said that after the Gold Core Ancestors sent their disciples into the Xuan Domain, they went to a place called the "Hall of Ten Thousand Treasures". There was a treasure of the Spirit Mountain Temple that could see what was happening in the Xuan Domain. Presumably, the five ancestors of the Great Snow Mountain had also gone there.
No one knew where this Hall of Ten Thousand Treasures was, so it would be very difficult to find the five old fellows.
"It seems that we can only wait until the sun rises tomorrow and find a way to enter by ourselves …"
After gathering enough information, Fang Xing made a decision and brought Chu Ci to the biggest inn in the city.
Chu Ci silently followed him. She had originally thought that she would be able to find her royal brother and ancestor easily. Who would have thought that there would be so much trouble? For a moment, he felt fortunate that he had been kidnapped by Fang Xing. Otherwise, not to mention entering the Mysterious Domain, just finding someone to inquire about information would have put him in a difficult position, as he had no experience in worldly affairs.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but quicken her pace and follow closely behind Fang Xing.
"Innkeeper, two rooms …"
After entering the inn, Fang Xing slapped the counter and shouted.
"Oh, Young Master, it's very unfortunate. Just now, these people asked for ten rooms. Our inn only has one room left …"
The innkeeper hurriedly said with a smile.
Fang Xing was startled. Then, he slapped the table and said, "That's good, I want one room!"
The innkeeper smiled and said, "Alright, one room. Young Master, please give me thirty Middle Grade Spirit Stones …"
Fang Xing was slightly startled when he heard this and didn't take them out immediately …
Today was different from the past. The worst he had were Upper Grade Spirit Stones. He didn't have any Middle Grade Spirit Stones!
"Young Master, do you think it's expensive? Now, all the inns in the city charge this price! "
The innkeeper looked at Fang Xing with some apprehension. To be honest, a small hall in a desolate city like theirs, even if it was the most luxurious inn in the city, was only worth three Middle Grade Spirit Stones a night. However, because there were more and more cultivators coming to Point General City these days, the price was raised. They were afraid that Fang Xing wouldn't be able to afford it.
"Hehe, these two Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters don't have enough Spirit Stones on hand. If you don't mind, I can lend you some!"
At this moment, a green-robed Young Master, who was standing beside the counter, said with a smile. He was one of the people who had just asked for ten rooms. When Chu Ci saw him, her face turned red. It was this group of people who had teased her at the city gate.
"Oh? You want to lend me money? Okay, I'll lend you a thousand Spirit Stones first … "
Fang Xing was overjoyed. He turned around and smiled at the green-robed Young Master.
