Yingyue City was magnificent and huge.
The city walls were all made of white jade. Under the sunlight, they looked like exquisite jade carvings, giving people the desire to take them for their own collection. Just by approaching, Wu Sanhan could feel a rich spiritual Qi that was locked in this world.
"As expected of a city that was once a holy land for cultivation. Just staying in this city is at least 20% faster than cultivating outside." Wu Sanhan could not help but sigh in admiration as he looked at the white jade city before him.
Although 20% didn't seem to be a large number, as time passed, the gap that was created by 20% would be unimaginably large.
In fact, this was indeed the case.
Walking into Yingyue City, the cultivators walking in the city had auras that were much stronger than the people in Tianyang City.
Most of their cultivation bases were above the phenomenon level.
Among them, there were also Kings in the Immortal Realm and Emperors in the Divine Embryo Realm.
Occasionally, one or two Perfected Persons could be seen passing by.
The carriage slowly entered the city. Under Lin Tian's instructions, Wu Sanhan stopped in front of a restaurant that provided food and lodging. Furthermore, he paid a large sum of money to the waiter who had come out to receive them and had him properly take care of the carriage.
Lin Tian, Wu Sanhan, and Xiao Hei walked into the restaurant.
They planned to rest here for a day and stroll around. At the same time, they asked Wu Sanhan to inquire about the teleportation formation.
After all, the rules of every place were different.
Some places required spirit stones to teleport once, while other places required other things.
Lin Tian also did not wish to rely on his strength to forcefully force others to activate the array formation.
If that was the case, it would be better to let Xiao Hei carry them and directly cross over.
In the restaurant, beside the window.
Lin Tian sat alone at a table, while Xiao Hei leaned on the table lazily, looking at the bustling city below and the people coming and going.
After the dishes were served, Wu Sanhan returned. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat opposite Lin Tian. He said, "Young Master, I've asked around. You can use the teleportation array in Yingyue City, but it can only be used within the Divine Prefecture. You can't teleport to places further away from here."
"According to the distance, there will be people who will charge different amounts of Spiritual Stones. They also have a special Void Spirit Boat for people to rent. However, there will be an Alchemy Conference in Yingyue City. After tomorrow, all the Alchemy Grandmasters from the Eastern Barren Territory will leave. Only then can the Teleportation Portal be lent to outsiders."
"In other words, if we want to leave from here, we have to wait until tomorrow at the earliest."
Hearing Wu Sanhan's words, Xiao Hei said impatiently, "If that's the case, Young Master, why don't I bring you there? Not only do we not have to wait, but we can also get there quickly."
Xiao Hei was not lying. Although it did not cultivate the power of space and did not have a deep grasp of the Void Technique, traveling through space was much faster than traveling through the Teleportation Array.
However, Lin Tian did not think so.
He tapped the table lightly with his finger, indicating for Xiao Hei to calm down. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Let's wait then. Anyway, we don't lack time."
"Alright."
Hearing this, Blackie seemed to have withered and laid down on the ground, looking dispirited.
According to it, they should hurry over and understand the situation of the Ghost Gate so that they could make preparations.
However, Lin Tian clearly did not have that intention.
He looked indifferently into the distance. Then, he picked up his teacup and lowered his head to sip.
However, neither Xiao Hei nor Wu Sanhan noticed that when Lin Tian lowered his head, a strange light flashed across his eyes.
After eating and drinking, Lin Tian did not immediately rest in the restaurant. Instead, he brought Wu Sanhan and Xiao Hei to the city to watch the Alchemy Conference. Just as Wu Sanhan had said, the Alchemy Conference was very lively. It was held in the center of Yingyue City, and the place was filled with people.
The fragrance of pills filled the air and refreshed the mind.
However, Xiao Hei was obviously not interested in these things. It looked sleepy.
Seeing this, Lin Tian asked it to go back and rest.
After Xiao Hei left, Lin Tian and Wu Sanhan walked through the crowd alone.
Then, they moved to an empty alley corner.
Lin Tian walked around randomly. It seemed like he was admiring the culture and scenery of Yingyue City, but in fact, it was more like he was probing for something.
"Did I sense it wrongly?"
As Lin Tian walked, he looked back and frowned slightly. He could not help but mumble to himself.
From the moment he entered Yingyue City, he felt that there was a consciousness that seemed to be watching him. As for what the owner of this consciousness wanted to do, Lin Tian did not know. That was why he sent Xiao Hei away and walked away alone. His purpose was to lure the owner of this consciousness out.
However, the owner of this consciousness seemed to be a little too cautious. Whether Xiao Hei was there or not, he did not have the slightest intention of coming out.
Now, looking at Lin Tian, he seemed to have discovered his intention and disappeared directly.
This made Lin Tian wonder if he had sensed it wrongly.
However, Lin Tian was not a person who liked to be entangled. Since the consciousness was gone and he could not find any clues, he did not want to wander around here anymore. He brought Wu Sanhan back to the restaurant.
As for why he was not in a hurry, Lin Tian actually had his own thoughts.
From his understanding of the Ghost Gate, or rather the Underworld, it was definitely not a simple place. Not to mention whether there was a supreme being like Xiao Hei said, just the legends about the Underworld were so mysterious. It proved that this place was definitely not ordinary.
If he wanted to go in, he had to be very, very careful.
Lin Tian was not conceited enough to think that he was invincible in this world, and could not be killed or destroyed.
Moreover, his identity was destined to be troublesome.
Therefore, when it was time to be cautious, he still had to be cautious.
He had to use this one month to digest all the things that the Martial Arts Emperor had passed to him. This way, he would be better able to deal with all the unknown possibilities.
…
In the center of Yingyue City.
In the depths of Hui Hong's White Jade Mansion.
The moment Lin Tian returned to the restaurant, a pair of eyes slowly opened in the darkness. At that moment, in the pitch-black underground palace, there was a bright moon rising. The faint moonlight illuminated the surroundings.
A fair-skinned young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes was sitting there. His eyes flickered with silver light as he murmured, "That person did not lie to me. It really is him …"
The young man in white slowly stood up. His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate everything as it landed on Lin Tian in the restaurant. He murmured, "Lin Tian, oh Lin Tian, back then in the ancient battlefield, I was defeated by you. When I heard the news about you, I thought you were already dead. Who knew that you were not dead, and even appeared in the Northern Plains. With the support of a Saint, you went on a killing spree there."
"However, later on, I heard that the Saint who supported you died. I wanted to find you for another battle. Unfortunately, you disappeared as if you were dead. However, the heavens do not disappoint the faithful. After thousands of years, I finally found you."
"To be able to live until now, it must be your sister's doing, right?"
At this point, the young man in white could not help but laugh. His divine sense turned to Xiao Hei, and his eyes turned cold. "Hehe, and this damned bird. Back then, you were so arrogant. I wonder if you still have the same aura."
