Chapter 750 Yaoshan Town
A dozen cultivators outside the teleportation array were overjoyed when they heard Changmei Weng's words. They quickly took their identity jade cards and storage bags and handed them to the two Lingxu messengers guarding outside the teleportation array.
Originally, this teleportation array needed to gather twenty people at a time to teleport. Now, including Wu Yan, there were only fourteen people. Unexpectedly, Changmei Weng actually allowed them to teleport to Lingxu City together because he had completed the mission and had to return to Lingxu City to report.
Wu Yan was also mixed in the crowd. After paying the identity jade card and five hundred high-quality spirit stones, he got a teleportation jade talisman and stood in the teleportation array.
Soon, a burst of light lit up on the teleportation array, and everyone left the ruins city and began the teleportation journey to Lingxu Land.
…
Lingxu City, located in the center of Lingxu Land, covers an area of about tens of thousands of miles. It is the largest and most prosperous cultivation city in Lingxu Land, and it is also the central main city of the entire Lingxu Land.
There are four gates on the four sides of Lingxu City, corresponding to the largest mysterious Lingxu area in the entire Lingxu land. There are roads leading to Lingxu City from Lingxu Wanshou Mountain in the east, Lingxu Endless Sand Sea in the west, Lingxu Icefield Forbidden Land in the north, and Lingxu Medicine Valley in the south.
It is said that Lingxu was originally a natural cave paradise in ancient times. Countless powerful monks of various races practiced and grew here. After reaching the Mahayana stage, they became immortals and ascended to the Xuantian Ancestor God World. However, some terrible disasters occurred later, causing this place to become a place of immortal ruins and become what it is today.
Between the South Gate of Lingxu City and Lingxu Medicine Valley, there is a huge building complex built on the mountain, with a scale of about 100 miles, called Yaogu Town.
Yaogu Town is only hundreds of miles away from Lingxu City. There is an extremely wide stone road passing through Yaogu Town, one end connecting Lingxu City and the other end leading directly to the depths of Lingxu Medicine Valley. Originally, there was no town here, but there was a teleportation array built under Yaoshan Mountain, which was the place where one could enter Lingxu City from the south gate.
Later, cultivators teleported from various ruins continents came here in batches almost every day. Many independent cultivators and small-scale families saw that the rental fees of shops in Lingxu City were too high, so they bought land near the Yaoshan teleportation array and built shops and pavilions, which gradually made this place a town for cultivation.
After Wu Yan came out of the Yaoshan teleportation array, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. The richness of the spiritual energy here was simply countless times better than any place he had seen before.
Even without looking for spiritual veins specifically, just sitting on the street in Yaoshan Town to start practicing, the spiritual energy here was enough for cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage to practice.
Of course, Wu Yan could not sit on the street to practice. He had to get familiar with everything here as soon as possible, and then improve his cultivation to the late stage of the Spiritualization as soon as possible, ready to cross the tribulation and go to the Immortal Spirit Realm.
After all, this is just a spiritual ruins, not a fairyland. But the spiritual energy in any place here is so amazing, so it can be imagined that the mysterious fairyland is probably more helpful to improve cultivation.
After Wu Yan took a tour of Yaogu Town, he had some new understanding of this place, and at the same time, his face became more bitter.
What made Wu Yan laugh and cry was that the top-grade spiritual stones were actually the lowest-level spiritual coins here, and the low-grade spiritual stones would never appear on the market here. No wonder the spiritual ruins messengers didn't take it seriously when using the teleportation array on the Tianzhou Ruins Continent, even if they collected 500 top-grade spiritual stones at a time.
The most important thing at present is to quickly get familiar with this place, then find a place to stay and start practicing. However, there are really few cultivators like him who are as embarrassed as beggars. Only outside the teleportation array hall can they be seen occasionally.
...
"Daoyou, do you sell jade slips introducing the spiritual ruins here?" Wu Yan walked to a stall and asked the stall owner.
The stall owner was a middle-aged cultivator in his thirties, with a cultivation base of the middle stage of Jindan. However, Wu Yan was secretly surprised by his attire and the things he was selling at the stall.
Unexpectedly, a cultivator in the middle stage of Jindan could be so wealthy. Wu Yan saw many high-quality materials for refining treasures and some very good spiritual medicines at his stall.
The stall owner glanced at Wu Yan and saw that he was wearing tattered clothes and had just come out of the teleportation hall. He guessed that he must have just been teleported from the ruins continent and must not have much money on him. Therefore, he had no interest in greeting Wu Yan. He just casually pointed to a row of jade slips on the stall and replied lazily: "One hundred high-quality spirit stones each. If you want, put down the spirit stones and take one at will."
"Why is it so expensive?" Wu Yan was shocked again and smiled bitterly.
The stall owner curled his lips in disdain and said, "Expensive? Ha, if you can't afford it, just leave quickly and don't block my stall and affect my business."
At this time, two Yuanying-stage cultivators, a man and a woman, walked out of the teleportation hall. However, unlike other cultivators who came out of the teleportation hall, the clothes worn by these two cultivators were quite gorgeous.
Although the male cultivator had an ordinary appearance, he exuded the aura of the peak of the late Yuanying stage, and his face was full of arrogance. Although the female cultivator was only in the early Yuanying stage, she was extremely beautiful and had a very hot body. She was also very bold and exposed in her clothes. She had a bright red robe tied on her chest, which made her pair of white weapons swell even more.
The male cultivator was not a cultivator teleported from the Ruins Continent, but a Lingxu messenger who was in charge of guarding the teleportation hall. The robe he wore was bright yellow, and it was the same style as Changmei Weng, the city lord of the Ruins City that Wu Yan teleported.
The female cultivator should have come from the Ruins Continent, and it seemed that she had just hooked up with this male cultivator, so she just came out of the teleportation hall and saw the scene in front of her, and her face suddenly showed an expression of shock and joy.
"Ah, the spiritual energy here is so rich, Brother Sun, can you help me introduce this Lingxu land?"
After the two walked out of the teleportation hall, they happened to pass by the stall where Wu Yan was standing. The female cultivator was now charmingly asking the male cultivator about things related to the Lingxu land.
The male cultivator was about to speak, but when he saw the stall next to him, he said: "Sister Lingwu, isn't it easy to know about the Lingxu land? Here is a jade slip that specifically introduces the Lingxu land. Let me buy one for you."
The male cultivator said, and walked towards the stall where Wu Yan was standing. The stall owner who was originally sitting on the stone pier stood up quickly when he saw the male cultivator coming over, and bowed with an extremely respectful look: "Master Sun Ji, I wonder if there is anything I can do for you?"
"Oh, it turns out to be Zhang Jian, what's up? Did you get some good stuff in Lingxu Medicine Valley again and come here to sell it?" The Lingxu messenger named Sun Ji, who was in the late Nascent Soul stage, seemed to recognize the stall owner in front of him, and immediately looked around his stall casually with interest.
"Haha, how can my stuff be worthy of your attention? Only cultivators like these who just came from the Ruins Continent need my stuff." Zhang Jian said to Sun Ji in a flattering manner, and pointed at Wu Yan next to him with disdain.
"Not bad, I didn't expect you to sell first-grade immortal herbs and first-grade treasure refining materials here. It seems that you have made a lot of money when the Medicine Valley was opened not long ago! Unfortunately, these things are of no use to me, otherwise I could buy some from you. By the way, do you sell jade slips introducing the Lingxu Land? Give me one, I want to give it to someone." After looking for a while, Sun Ji retracted his gaze and said to the stall owner named Zhang Jian.
"Yes, yes, of course. Hehe, Lord Sun, the jade slips here are all from the "Treasure Pavilion" in Lingxu City. There are simplified and detailed versions. I wonder which one you need?" Zhang Jian said with a smile, and as he spoke, his eyes seemed to intentionally or unintentionally glance at the female cultivator next to Sun Ji.
The female cultivator with a good appearance was also looking at the things on Zhang Jian's stall at this time, but at this time, her eyes were dazzled by the things on Zhang Jian's stall. She never thought that the immortal-level elixirs that could only be found in some ancient secret places in the Xiuzhen Continent before could be found at any stall here.
"Brother Sun, I have been stuck in the early stage of the Nascent Soul for several years and have been unable to break through because I don't have the right immortal herbs to refine the "Guzhen Pill". I wonder if Brother Sun can help me." The female cultivator was almost sticking to Sun Ji at this time, and she intentionally or unintentionally used the pile of white killing weapons on her chest to rub Sun Ji's arms, which made Sun Ji a little confused.
Although Sun Ji was already fascinated by this female cultivator, he could not fail to see her plan. He laughed awkwardly and said, "What's the big deal? Isn't it just the 'Guzhen Pill'? When we get to Lingxu City, I promise to get you a bottle. Sister Lingwu, forget about the first-grade immortal herbs on Zhang Jian's stall. It's useless if there is no alchemist above the third level of the spiritual level. Zhang Jian, give me a jade slip with the detailed version. I have to rush to the city to do some work."
"Haha, what a coincidence. I just have the last jade slip with the detailed version. If you come a little later, I'm afraid you won't be able to find the second one in Yaoshan Town. Thanks for your care, I will take five top-grade spiritual stones from you." Zhang Jian immediately flipped his palm and took out an exquisite golden jade slip from the storage ring on his hand and handed it to Sun Ji.
"A mere jade slip costs five top-grade spirit stones? It's so expensive!" The female cultivator covered her mouth in surprise, and smiled charmingly at the male cultivator.
Sun Ji was originally a cultivator from Lingxu City, and was naturally very familiar with the things in Lingxu Land, but he didn't know that a mere jade slip introducing Lingxu Land would cost so much, and his cheeks twitched slightly.
"Zhang Jian, what's going on? Aren't jade slips introducing Lingxu Land generally only one hundred top-grade spirit stones each? Why are you asking for so much? Are you taking me for a fool? Humph, although your Zhang family is also a big family in Yaoshan Town, this is not how you do business, right?" Sun Ji snorted coldly, dissatisfied.
"Hehe, Lord Sun, I'm afraid you have misunderstood. One hundred high-grade spirit stones is the price of the simplified version of the jade slip. This detailed version of the jade slip gives a detailed introduction to the local customs, mountains and rivers of various places in the Lingxu land. There is also a detailed map engraved on it. When you look at it, the entire Lingxu land is as if it is right in front of you. It is very convenient and affordable." Zhang Jian explained with a wry smile.
