Sky Cloud City!
Sky Cloud City was one of the top hundred cities in Dark Domain and had a long history. In terms of size and power, Sky Cloud City could only be ranked in the top hundred among the thousands of cities in Dark Domain and wasn't considered as strong.
But in terms of prosperity, Sky Cloud City could be ranked in the top thirty among the thousands of cities in Dark Domain and was one of the most prosperous cities in Dark Domain.
The reason for this was because of the existence of Yunkong College.
Yunkong College was one of the four major colleges in Dark Domain and was a famous cultivation sacred ground. Numerous people from other races in Dark Domain were proud to be able to enter Yunkong College and the other four major colleges!
Almost eighty percent of the powerful and influential figures in the Dark Place were also related to the Four Great Academies. When they were young, they would more or less receive favors from the Four Great Academies.
Therefore, although the Four Great Academies did not compete for the world of the Dark Place and stood aloof from the world, their hidden strength was something that even the Blood Clan, Thunder Clan, Wind Clan, Water Spirit Clan, and Pegasus Clan, the five strongest clans of the Dark Place, were afraid of.
Xue Qingwei was able to enter Yunkong College and become the seed of Yunkong College. This went to show that Xue Qingwei was one of the top figures among the younger generation in Dark Domain and was indeed extraordinary.
For the Snow Yan people to be able to produce such a prodigy, it was indeed the Snow Yan people's fortune.
At this moment!
When the sky finally lit up, a brand new day had arrived. Xiao Fan, Xue Qingwei and the rest had finally arrived in front of Sky Cloud City's huge city gates.
"What a … majestic city!" Looking at the towering city walls which reached into the clouds and whose height couldn't be seen and whose thickness was as high as ten miles, Xue Ran and the rest of the Snow Yan people were all dumbstruck. Then their faces revealed an intense shock as they muttered to themselves.
Compared to the Sky Cloud City in front of them, the Snow Yan people's Snow Flame City was like a small scale abandoned wasteland. The two of them were like heaven and earth, totally not on the same level and not even in the same world.
They, who had never been too far away from Snowfire City, felt an unprecedented shock in their hearts at this moment. Their entire bodies stiffened.
Lime, who was standing beside Xiao Fan, looked at the majestic Sky Cloud City in front of him with his mouth agape. Similarly, he muttered to himself as he seemed to be in a daze.
Although Lime had followed Xiao Fan for a long time, he was used to seeing big scenes. Moreover, Lime had grown up in the largest city of Spirit Realm, Dragon Devouring City. His horizons were definitely not low.
However, the cities of foreign races were different from the cities of humans. This was because the cities of foreign races were always big, as big as they could be.
So although Sky Cloud City was only one of the top hundred cities in Dark Domain, but in terms of majesty, even Dragon Devouring City couldn't match up to it. It was no wonder that even Lime was shocked when he saw Sky Cloud City.
As for the reason why foreign races' cities were so big, there were many reasons. For example, one of the reasons was that some of the foreign races' physiques were incomparably huge. If the city's surface area was too small, it was totally unable to accommodate such a large number of them, not to mention living in the city.
The other reason was because of the human race's dominance in the entire Central imperial realm.
Facing the human race's dominance, the various foreign races' hearts were filled with uneasiness and fear. So in order to defend against the human race and protect themselves, they tried their best to strengthen their own city walls. After that, they increased the height, length, thickness, defence and attack power of their city walls to an extremely abnormal level.
In this way, the foreign races' cities were all huge. Most of the human race's cities, in terms of size and surface area, were totally incomparable.
"The foreign races' cities are indeed huge. Moreover, their defence and attack power are generally above the human race's cities. This point is indeed indisputable!" In the face of Lime's exclamation, Xiao Fan smiled and continued, "However, due to the huge size of the foreign races' cities, there are also many loopholes. As long as we can find the loopholes, the difficulty of breaching the foreign races' cities will be greatly reduced. Sometimes, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's a piece of cake!"
"There are very few foreign races' cities that are both huge and defenseless. In comparison, although the human race's cities are generally small and their defence and attack are inferior to the foreign races' cities, there are very few defensive blind spots. When attacking, one can only expend one's own strength to forcefully break through. Most of the time, the difficulty of attacking a foreign race's cities is actually higher than the foreign races' cities!"
"Oh!" Lime seemed to understand Xiao Fan's words and nodded thoughtfully.
However!
In response to Xiao Fan's evaluation, Xue Qingwei, Xueran, and the other young Snow- Yan people were not convinced and immediately retorted.
"Our foreign races' cities have many defensive blind spots? Just because you say so, we have them? Who do you think you are? "Xueran was the first to speak in a cold voice.
"That's right. What right do you have to say that our foreign races' cities have many loopholes?" The three young Snow- Yan people also opened their mouths and shouted, not convinced.
"I'm nobody!" Xiao Fan glanced at Xueran and the other young Snow- Yan people. He was not really angry and only said leisurely, "But I'm just stating an objective fact. If you don't believe me, feel free to look through some ancient historical books!"
"As long as the ancient historical books you read have not been deliberately tampered with, then generally speaking, you will be able to understand the strengths and weaknesses of the foreign races' cities and the human race's cities. As for your foreign races' cities, as I said, they have too many loopholes. Although they look strong, most of the time, they are as fragile as clay statues!"
"Really?" Xueran and the other young Snow- Yan people wanted to say something but at this moment, Xue Qingwei opened her mouth. She looked at Xiao Fan for a moment and then said indifferently, "Since that's the case, then why don't you tell us, where are Sky Cloud City's loopholes and how many are there?"
"If you can say it, then it proves that what you say is true and I'm willing to admire you. But if you can't say it, hehe, you're just an ignorant person who only knows how to spout nonsense!"
"That's right!" Hearing Xue Qingwei's words, Xueran and the other young Snow- Yan people all cried out and then stared intently at Xiao Fan. Their faces were filled with cold intent as they wanted to see how Xiao Fan would be able to say it out.
"I'll say it out, just listen carefully!" Xiao Fan said unhurriedly, "Now we're at the west side of Sky Cloud City and because I haven't seen the other three sides of the city walls, so I'll only talk about the loopholes on the west side of Sky Cloud City's city walls!"
"Please speak!" Xue Qingwei's expression was chilly as she opened her mouth to speak.
"Firstly, the west side of Sky Cloud City's city walls are made up of Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones, combined with the Ice Refining Technique to finally smelt it. Originally, this refining method was not a problem and once it was successfully refined, the Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones would perfectly merge together and form an indestructible city wall defence system. Even if a cultivator who had surpassed Sky Realm fourth level realm wanted to break through the west side of Sky Cloud City's city walls, he would need to pay a huge price!" Facing Xue Qingwei and the others' questioning gazes, Xiao Fan started to talk on his own, "But because of Sky Cloud City's huge transformation, so the amount of Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones required to refine the city walls is unprecedentedly huge!"
"As the Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones required too much, it led to the Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones to be completely refined into one, which required at least thirty eight thousand six hundred and seventy two types of Ice Refining Techniques to be perfectly coordinated!"
"Among them, if there's one less Ice Refining Technique or even one wrong Ice Refining Technique, it would be impossible to refine the west side of Sky Cloud City's city walls to a flawless stage!"
"As long as the city walls are not refined to a flawless stage, then the Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones which had been refined together would no longer be impossible to separate from each other!"
"Just like now, there's a total of forty eight Ice Refining Techniques in the west side of Sky Cloud City's city walls. So there's a total of forty eight Ice Refining Techniques to separate the Yellow Ji Stone, Purple Spirit Jade, Jade Sea Orchid Stone and other twenty seven types of stones!"
"I won't go through the exact forty eight Ice Refining Techniques one by one but I'll just randomly pick one. For example, one of the methods is to use the blood from the Swallow Cloud Tiger's sole, the bone marrow from the Wind Chasing Sparrow's third vertebra, the blood from the tip of the Black Ice Snake's tongue and other twelve types of things to refine using the Ice Refining Technique. Then on a hot day, gather a hundred thousand of them and pour them onto the Sky Cloud City's city walls. In less than six hours, the Sky Cloud City's city walls will collapse automatically, turning into a pile of ruins!"
Hearing Xiao Fan's words, Xue Ran and the other Snow Yan people's youngsters were originally sneering coldly, thinking that Xiao Fan was definitely spouting nonsense but on seeing Xiao Fan's detailed explanation, they were suddenly stunned as they couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. Their hearts were filled with uncertainty, not knowing if what Xiao Fan said was correct or not?
As for Xue Qingwei, she was similarly stunned. Although she and Xue Ran and the other Snow Yan people's youngsters didn't know how to refine armaments, but her vision was after all extraordinary and it wasn't something that Xue Yan and the other Snow Yan people's youngsters could be compared to.
So when she heard Xiao Fan's words, although she still wasn't sure if Xiao Fan's words were right or wrong, but her instincts told her that what Xiao Fan said was the most professional knowledge in the field of armament refining and was absolutely not spouting nonsense.
Therefore, the sneer on her face slowly disappeared and what replaced it was a dazed look, not knowing how to evaluate whether Xiao Fan's words were right or wrong.
