Chapter 397: Ziyu City
"But, how do you know she can really save our lives?" the girl insisted: "If she sells us..."
"Junior Sister Xue, we have no way out now!" The eldest brother Wang said helplessly: "If we don't enter Ziyu City for the rest of our lives, then we must leave here immediately, otherwise we will face the pursuit of Qingyun Sect. If we want to continue cultivating immortals and improving our cultivation, then we can only believe in this senior!"
"You are right!" Fairy Yanfeng nodded with a smile and said, "You are the master of the times!"
"But!..." Suddenly, the eldest brother Wang said, "I must first confirm that you can really take us into Ziyu City. Only after we are really safe will I hand over the cultivation method of the original power!"
"This..." Fairy Yanfeng turned around and saw that Nie Lingfeng had already come over, so she asked respectfully: "Master..."
"Just as he wants!" Nie Lingfeng had heard their conversation, so he immediately nodded and said, "Several Immortal friends, you are all cultivators who are about to advance to the middle-level scattered immortals. Why don't you enter Ziyu City but be outside this city?"
"Enter Ziyu City? Haha!..." The eldest brother Wang saw Nie Lingfeng coming over, and even the senior who could not see through his cultivation actually called him the master, so he immediately replied with a wry smile: "Not everyone can enter Ziyu City!"
"Oh? This is what I mean? Didn't it mean that you can enter as long as you reach the middle level of the Sanxian?" Nie Lingfeng said in surprise...
"Yes! You can enter as long as you reach the middle grade of the Sanxian, but now we..." The beautiful girl said helplessly and stopped.
"But……?"
Before Nie Lingfeng finished speaking, he was interrupted by the monk named Wang. "This senior doesn't know that if you are a disciple of a large sect, you can use the resources of the sect to stabilize your cultivation at the level of the middle level of the scattered immortals for the past three or four hundred years on the way. However, we are all casual cultivators, how can you have such huge cultivation resources?"
"Yes!" Another old monk sighed: "I have been staying near Ziyu City for nearly a thousand years because I don't have the resources to practice. Alas! If I can't enter the city again, I'm afraid I will not have lived for three thousand years!"
"So that's how it is!" Nie Lingfeng then realized the hardships of these casual cultivators. Hearing this, he couldn't help but shook his head with emotion.
"There are only you casual cultivators outside the city of Ziyu City?" Fairy Yanfeng said in confusion.
"In fact, there were at least a few hundred low-level casual cultivators outside the Ziyu City, but the cultivators nearby began to be driven away more than 300 years ago!..."
"Hearing driven away?" Nie Lingfeng was surprised when he heard the words of the old monk: "Why is this? You just need not enter the city?"
"Because the spiritual energy near the wall of Ziyu City is quite abundant, most of the casual cultivators will secretly hide near the wall to practice. However, the Qingyun Sect cultivators took the excuse of stealing the spiritual energy from the city by the scattered immortals outside the city as an excuse to start enslaving us, and asked us to go to the newly discovered planet to mine spirit stones and spiritual veins!" The old monk said helplessly.
"But, isn't there spiritual energy to practice after mining spiritual veins?" Nie Lingfeng said in surprise: "Then why don't you go?"
"Bad!" Hearing this, the cultivator immediately turned red and cursed: "The bastard from Qingyun Sect actually said that he was afraid that we would secretly absorb the spirit stones, and actually blocked our cultivation, so that we could only have the cultivation of a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage..."
"How did you know about this?" Nie Lingfeng asked curiously.
"I was also enslaved at that time, but my brother sacrificed his life and let me escape..." At this point, the monk's eyes were red.
"Then you should know where the spirit stones of Qingyun Sect were mined from?" Nie Lingfeng was worried about the spiritual veins and said in surprise when he heard this.
"I know, but..." the monk shook his head and said, "That place needs to pass through Ziyu City!"
"What's your name?" Nie Lingfeng suddenly asked with a smile.
"My name is Li Ziyang!" The old monk immediately introduced six people from his side one by one: the young and beautiful female cultivator was Xue Xiaolin; the old one was his aunt Yuan Min, the monk with the origin power technique was Wang Fei, and the other two were called Sun Ming and Jiang Zheng.
Immediately, Nie Lingfeng asked them a few more questions. He understood the conditions for entering Ziyu City, and then explained to them the precautions for entering the True Spirit World.
Everyone showed a surprise expression when they heard Nie Lingfeng had a True Spirit World, because they had just discovered that the cultivation level of this senior master was even lower than that of the maid. He was even just a middle-grade cultivator of the scattered immortals. Although they didn't say anything, they were always a little puzzled in their hearts, but now, after hearing that he had a True Spirit World, they took him seriously.
"Okay, I'll take you into the city now, but you can't show up for the time being!" Nie Lingfeng then stretched out his hand and recruited all six people into his true spirit world.
In fact, Nie Lingfeng also knew that he could not convince these people for the time being. Of course, he knew that as long as these scattered immortals wanted to continuously improve their cultivation and become true immortals, then they had to rely on themselves. These people would sooner or later enter their Immortal Fate Sect and become their right-hand assistants!
If these scattered immortals were a piece of scattered sand, Nie Lingfeng would not have taken them so seriously. However, they would never leave them when they encountered danger, which made him appreciate these people. After all, it was not easy to meet such a group of scattered cultivators who valued love and righteousness in the world of immortal cultivation! What's more, Wang Fei also had the original power technique he urgently hoped to obtain!
The origin power technique may be just a means to save lives for others, and it can even be said to be a means of being useless, because after the casting is completed, the caster will be weak all over and cannot even move his true energy for a month! However, these things are not a problem for Nie Lingfeng, because he has a true spirit world, and now the level of the true spirit world is already very high. Even the Daluo Jinxian may not be able to detect the existence of the true spirit world now! If he uses the original power, he can easily hide in the true spirit world to restore his magic power without being discovered by others!
"Stop!..." Just when Nie Lingfeng was about to enter the city, suddenly, five monks rushed out of the city, and even the leader was a top-grade monk of the scattered immortals.
"What's the matter?" Fairy Yanfeng stepped forward coldly and asked, "You are blind. How dare you stop me?"
"Oh!..." The leader glanced at it, but was surprised to find that Fairy Yanfeng was actually a cultivator in the Great Perfect Realm of Sanxian... No! He actually surpassed Sanxian...? He immediately took a step back in panic and bowed quickly and said, "Senior, please calm down. I am really blind and almost bumped into Senior..."
"Get out!..." Fairy Yanfeng scolded and immediately walked towards the city with Nie Lingfeng.
"Senior, please stay!" Suddenly, a top-grade monk from the scattered immortal stood out from the city gate, clasped his fists and said, "I am Xie Weiping, the elder of Qingyun Sect who is on guard at the city gate today! Which sect is senior?"
"What? Is this Ziyu City now a prison for your Qingyun Sect?" Fairy Yanfeng said coldly. Then, she covered her powerful pressure towards the other party.
"Senior, I am also doing my orders!" The monk guarding the city gate was so scared that his face was pale, but he was still blocking the middle of the road and did not dare to move half a step.
"We are cultivators of Qihu Sect!..." Nie Lingfeng slowly reached out and pressed Fairy Yanfeng's shoulder, letting her take a step back, and then said softly.
"Oh! Two seniors... no! Why didn't you say it earlier?" The monk guarding the city gate was immediately grateful when he saw Nie Lingfeng easily resolved the pressure of Fairy Yanfeng. He was about to call Nie Lingfeng a senior, but when he looked closely, he found that the other party was just the peak of the middle-grade immortal, and even his cultivation was inferior to his own. Therefore, he immediately changed his words.
In fact, it was not only the monk guarding the city gate that was shocked. Even Fairy Yanfeng was quite surprised. Although she knew that Nie Lingfeng's cultivation was unfathomable, she never expected that the pressure from the Daluo Jinxian could be resolved by him, a middle-grade monk of the scattered immortals, and it was still so easy, as if she was touched by her hands!
"Did this kid deliberately hide his cultivation? Is this woman the kid's slave..." The monk guarding the city gate thought, bowed and said, "Two, please show your proof!"
"Oh!" Nie Lingfeng didn't expect any further proof, so he devoted his spiritual consciousness to the world of true spirit to communicate with Fairy Qiho.
"How much do you know about Ziyu City?"
"Husband, we have never had any contact with Ziyu City, but the ancestors left a message that any cultivator who has advanced to the middle grade of Sanxian can enter the Qihu Sect in Ziyu City for cultivation!"
"Has no one ever returned to the flax planet ever since the monks who have come to Ziyu City?" Nie Lingfeng said in confusion.
"No, even a middle-grade or above monk of the Sanxian can take three or four hundred years to return to the Box Planet. Therefore, no high-level monk is willing to return to the planet that has no potential to improve cultivation!"
"So that's it! By the way!" Nie Lingfeng asked Fairy Qihu again for the identity jade pendant of the Qihu Sect monk, and then asked the old monk Li Ziyang.
"You have no hope of survival in Ziyu City and your cultivation level cannot be advanced. Why don't you return to the Box Planet?" Nie Lingfeng asked with confusion.
"Master Nie, although our cultivation is progressing slowly outside Ziyu City, because Ziyu City has abundant spiritual energy, as long as we have time to practice, we can rely on the powerful spiritual energy near the city wall to upgrade our cultivation to the middle grade of the scattered immortals and return to the flax planet... We have thought about it, but after we go back, we still have to come back again to look for opportunities... Alas!..."
"Didn't you say that you can enter the city at will as long as you reach the middle grade of the Sanxian?" Nie Lingfeng interrupted.
"Haha," Li Ziyang smiled bitterly, and then said: "Ziyu City has suddenly changed its previous practices over the past few hundred years. If you want to enter the city after becoming a middle-level immortal, then you must join the five major sects. In other words, as long as you want to continue to improve your cultivation, you must serve the sect for a period of time!"
"Serve for a while?" Nie Lingfeng frowned when he heard this.
Li Ziyang immediately explained: "In other words, as long as you become a middle-level cultivator of the scattered immortals, you need to mine spiritual veins according to the common agreement of the five major sects. As long as the number of spiritual veins you mine meets the requirements of the sect, you can enjoy the practice time provided by the sect. Otherwise, your cultivation will still be blocked!"
"I understand!" Nie Lingfeng finally understood the current situation, so he pretended to take out a token of the elder of the Qihu Sect from the storage ring and handed it to the Qingyun Sect cultivator who was guarding the gate.
"Oh!" The monk sensed it. The token was indeed the elder token of the Qihoo Sect, but then he said in confusion: "But this is just a token, and it cannot indicate your identity! Do you have no identity cards?"
"Identity card?" Nie Lingfeng frowned when he heard this. He didn't have any identity card!
"I have it!..." Suddenly, the fairy Yanfeng threw out a token.
The monk guarding the city hurriedly took it. After feeling it for a while, he immediately bowed and said, "It turns out to be Fairy Kiho! I'm so rude! Please come in quickly!"
Seeing the monk talking and making way, Nie Lingfeng couldn't help but shake his head. Why didn't he expect this? Fairy Yanfeng had previously commanded the Qihu Sect and became the head of the Qihu Sect on the Smoky Rain Planet. How could she not have the token of the Master!
After seeing that the five monks who went out of the city to hunt down Li Ziyang and others had nothing suspicious about the identities of Nie Lingfeng and Fairy Yanfeng, they immediately rushed out of the city.
After the two entered the city, they immediately found that this Ziyu City was a bit different from other immortal cultivation cities. Because there were no monks walking on the street, and there were not even any shops, but the spiritual energy here was many times thicker than outside the city, which allowed the monks to rely on the spiritual energy here to upgrade their cultivation to the top level of the scattered immortals!
"What's going on?" Nie Lingfeng said in confusion.
"I don't know either!" Fairy Yanfeng said strangely when she heard this: "When I passed by Ziyu City last time, the city was still very lively... However, it has been nearly two thousand years since then..."
"The spiritual energy in this city cannot scatter outside the city. Could it be because of the guardian formation?" Nie Lingfeng looked at the formations near the city wall and said strangely.
"That is the simplest guard formation, which can protect 90% of the spiritual energy in the city from dissipating!"
"The easiest..." Thinking of this, Nie Lingfeng immediately asked, "By the way, what do you need to do if you want to return for three days?"
"I can pass directly through the natural formation nearby for three days..."
"Stop!..." Just as the two of them were muttering, a top-grade monk from the Sanxian came here like a flying monk.
Nie Lingfeng was about to ask about the way to enter the three days, but he didn't want to be interrupted. He couldn't help but feel a little angry and looked up and said coldly: "What's wrong with you?"
"The head of the sect heard that the monks of Qihu Sect had entered the city, so he asked you to report to the sect immediately!" the monk said coldly.
"Report to the sect?" Nie Lingfeng frowned when he heard this. He remembered Li Ziyang's words just now. If he entered the Qihu Sect, he might be sent to somewhere to dig the spiritual veins immediately, but...?
"Come with me quickly!" The monk scolded Nie Lingfeng, who was standing still, impatiently.
"Get out!..." The fairy Yanfeng ignored the other party. After all, she was from three days. The last time she came to Ziyu City, the head of Qihu Sect in Ziyu City was "very enthusiastic!" Besides, how could he, a Daluo Jinxian, be drunk by some low-level cultivators? Of course, his master Nie Lingfeng is not counted!
"What did you say?" The monk could not have imagined that this female cultivator was so bold. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "You dare to be so arrogant when you come to Ziyu City..."
"Go and call Fairy Kiho and say..."
"Random!..." At the same time, more than ten monks wearing the uniform costumes of the Kido Sect suddenly appeared and immediately surrounded the two of them.
Nie Lingfeng could not have imagined that the imprisonment formation in Ziyu City was so sharp. It would have been fine if he had not sensed the existence of these people in advance, but the fairy Yanfeng did not discover them in advance!
"If you don't want to die, then go aside!" Fairy Yanfeng said coldly. She had already seen that these more than ten cultivators were of the top level of the immortals. Moreover, these people also set up a formation. If they really fight, let alone themselves, I'm afraid even Nie Lingfeng found everyone in the True Spirit World and might not be able to win!
Of course, she naturally has her own plans to do this!
If Nie Lingfeng was seriously injured by these people, she could take the opportunity to regain her spiritual consciousness and slowly refine it to escape from Nie Lingfeng's control. Of course, this beautiful fairy, the fairy of Yanfeng, doesn't think that Nie Lingfeng can really defeat the Chaos Immortal Emperor! She is not stupid. Although she was forced back then! However, if she had not had the Chaos Immortal Emperor, she would not have become a Daluo Golden Immortal now. She even believed that if she could regain the nine-colored black iron in Nie Lingfeng's hand, or even obtain his true spirit world, then the Chaos Immortal Emperor would definitely improve her cultivation to the middle grade of Daluo Golden Immortal!
How can people who cultivate immortals have any feelings? In order to improve their cultivation, they must give up even their own parents, let alone their own parents, let alone Fairy Yanfeng is still a Yanjing!
Nie Lingfeng glanced at Fairy Yanfeng coldly. Although he knew that Fairy Yanfeng might not really convince him, he did not expect that this woman would dare to make a move at this time! (To be continued...)
