Chapter 136: Floating Cloud Fairy City
Chapter 136: Floating Cloud Fairy City
When we reached the outskirts of the Floating Cloud Mountains, about 300 miles away, the terrain began to become increasingly steep.
The altitude rises steeply, and the mountains rise and fall as far as the end can be seen. They look like a series of "stairs" leading up.
Standing on the Tingfeng Boat and gazing far into the distance, one can vaguely see the towering mountain in the center, which completely refreshes people's perception of mountains and rivers.
It was as if it was not mountains or rivers, but the backbone supporting the heaven and earth, the pillars of the sky, and the ladder that could lead one directly to heaven.
Seeing that all his children and grandchildren were shocked, Zhong Anhe laughed and said, "This mountain in front of us is the legendary Floating Cloud Mountain. It is said to be 30,000 feet high and is currently the highest mountain in the world in Dongzhou."
"As for the many mountains surrounding Floating Cloud Mountain, they stretch for more than 50,000 miles and are all covered by a strange formation. From the outside, they look no different from ordinary steep mountains and forests, but that is just an illusion in the eyes of mortals. In the eyes of true cultivators, there are countless pavilions and palaces inside, and secret caves are endless."
"The main peak is divided into eight peaks and eight veins, and each peak contains many peaks."
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.
They were not particularly clear about the concept of more than 50,000 miles.
However, the Crescent Lake is a vast area of fifty miles in radius, which means that the area directly under the jurisdiction of the Baiyun Temple is as large as one thousand Crescent Lakes.
Just a Crescent Lake was enough to make the Taoyuan Zhong family feel a little overwhelmed. If they had not brought in external relatives and supported small forces close to them, they would not have been able to digest it at all.
And this is just the location of the mountain gate of Baiyun Temple, which is equivalent to the capital.
The sphere of influence under its jurisdiction is only a very small and insignificant area.
This is what is called the Immortal Sect coming. It is just like the "Tianzhu Peak" in front of you that is towering into the clouds, making people look up, in awe, and shocked.
Looking at his many children and grandchildren who stretched their heads to look up in shock, Zhong Anhe smiled and said, "This is the important reason why everyone in the world wants to become a disciple of Baiyun Temple. Once you become a member of the mountain, even if you are still not tall, because you are standing on the mountain, everyone in the world needs to look up to you."
Everyone was thoughtful after hearing this.
Zhong Lixiao laughed.
To put it simply, the platform is very important.
As long as you stand on this platform, your personal value will be infinitely raised.
The words are rough and the reasoning is not rough!
"This Floating Cloud Fairy City in front was originally built by the clansmen, families, and servants of the many fairy masters of Baiyun Temple. After all, there are still many miscellaneous things that need to be done by mortals."
While the ancestor was telling everyone the history of the establishment of Floating Cloud Fairy City, he slowed down the speed of the Tingfeng Boat.
As the distance got closer, Floating Cloud Fairy City became larger and larger in the eyes of everyone, and eventually became like an indescribable behemoth.
Even without any reminders, everyone could feel the horror of this fairy city just by relying on the intuition of cultivators.
It is highly likely that there is a large magic array in operation, constantly absorbing and exhaling the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
It is like a dormant giant beast, which makes people instinctively feel awe.
When they arrived at a busy intersection more than thirty miles away from Floating Cloud Fairy City, the ancestor Zhong Anhe landed on the Tingfeng Boat.
All this is because, without special permission and qualifications, one cannot fly over Floating Cloud Fairy City at will.
After everyone landed on the ground, they began to use walking, the most primitive means of transportation.
It's not that there is no compromise. You can see various post stations everywhere around.
There were also all kinds of horse-drawn carriages and beasts of burden, seemingly waiting to pick up passengers.
Perhaps because the industry is too competitive, you can even see some monsters soliciting customers, some of them are cool, some are cute, and some are fierce.
Means of transportation such as rabbit carts, elk carts, and fox carts are especially popular and sought after by female monks.
Occasionally, you can even see mechanical puppet cars that pick up passengers. It even looks like the technology tree is a bit off, and the style is strange and weird.
This one is more popular among male monks, and many of them come to the front of the mechanical puppet car to take a look.
But it is different from the rabbit car. They can look at the mechanical puppet car and touch it, but if they are asked to pay to ride it, that is absolutely impossible.
The guy who was pulling the mechanical puppet car had a stiff face from smiling so hard.
These scenes opened the eyes of Zhong Lixiao and others. They felt sympathy for the puppet car guy's experience and also found it extremely funny.
In addition, there are a large number of small vendors selling various products.
The variety of goods is really dazzling, but there are also a wide variety of fakes.
These small vendors were competing with both the guests from other places and the officials who managed the place.
It’s a bit like the vendors and urban management officers in previous lives!
You may not feel it in the sky, but on the ground the feeling of busyness, prosperity, noise and congestion gradually creeps into everyone's mind.
but.
For the many members of the Taoyuan Zhong family who have always practiced seclusion in their family, this feeling of prosperity before their eyes is really fresh.
However, the novelty soon wore off, replaced by impatience and gnashing of teeth.
Who would have thought that the queue to enter the city would start from this place?
The traffic jam was so slow that the monks could only move forward a few miles in half an hour, which made them curse.
Not every monk is so irritable, but when irritable monks get irritable, they are really irritable.
The longer you wait, the louder and harsher the abuse becomes.
Many people are complaining that there are so many entrances to Fuyun Fairy City, why can’t more of them be open at the same time?
In fact, it was not just Zhong Lixiao and his companions. Many people were dazzled by the sight at this small intersection outside Fuyun Fairy City.
There are many people like Zhong Anhe who send their family members to Baiyun Temple to become disciples.
It even feels a bit like the beginning of university!
"Father, don't worry. I will work hard to get into Baiyun Temple in one fell swoop, bring honor to our family, and strengthen our family."
"I'm definitely going to Baiyun Temple. There must be a seat for me inside!"
"As long as we enter Baiyun Temple, Sister Liu will agree to be my wife, and her parents will have no reason to object."
"Just wait, as long as you let me enter Baiyun Temple, I will make those bastards of Shouxian Sect pay for their crimes with blood!"
"Son, it doesn't matter if you fail to become a disciple of Baiyun Temple. Don't try to be stubborn. I heard that people died during the examinations in previous years. I just want you to live well."
"."
A small busy intersection displays all kinds of life vividly.
There are many reasons to become a disciple at Baiyun Temple.
Some wanted to bring honor to their family, some wanted to realize their own potential, and some wanted to use their status as disciples of Baiyun Temple to raise their status and marry the woman of their dreams.
of course.
Some of them were alone, and compared with those who were escorted by their parents and servants, they seemed unusually calm.
Some are aloof, some are disdainful, and some even simply immerse themselves in their own world.
Obviously, compared with those children who have not grown up, these people are closer to everyone's impression of cultivators.
Cut off all worldly ties and focus on the Tao!
Among them, there are a large number of people who sell various intelligence.
"My fellow Taoists have come all the way here, naturally to become disciples of Baiyun Temple. But I'm sure you've all seen the situation here. The competition is very, very fierce. I have Baiyun Temple's exam questions from previous years. Would you like a copy? I'll only charge five spirit stones!"
Zhong Lixiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard that.
It's really interesting that I even came across someone selling real exam questions from previous years.
But we have to admit that as long as there are exams, there will always be demand and market for this industry. Although those who sell real exam questions run into obstacles from time to time, and even get told to get lost by irritable customers, this happens all the time.
But in such a short period of time, several orders were actually completed.
"Look at you Daoists, you are full of energy and vigor, and there is a gleam of brilliance in your eyes. I guess you Daoists are very interested in the quota for inner disciples, right?"
The person who interrupted was a fat man with a friendly face. He gave people a feeling of the smiling Maitreya Buddha, which naturally made people feel close to him.
Zhong Lixiao and the others had no intention of speaking.
This kind of promotion of real questions is just to deceive ordinary monks who have no background or connections.
For people like them who have access to information from their ancestors, it's pure IQ tax.
Seeing that Zhong Lixiao and the others ignored him, the fat man didn't care, but continued to explain in a torrent of words.
Perhaps to show that he really understood, the fat man actually said some useful stuff.
for example.
Where is the first round of the test held, what time does it start on the day, where do I go to register, what are the tempers of some instructors, what interesting things have happened in recruiting disciples over the years, and what are the minefields that Baiyun Temple absolutely prohibits.
Not to mention Zhong Lixiao and others, even the many cultivators around them pricked up their ears and listened.
Matters such as absolute prohibitions have attracted the attention of all candidates and parents.
such as:
You must not cheat during the process, especially you must not conceal your age.
If you meet an examiner with a good temper, you may just be reprimanded a few words. If you meet one with a bad temper, you may even be subject to actual punishment.
For example, in combat, the use of pills that squeeze out potential, such as Blood Burst Pill and Soul Burst Pill, is strictly prohibited.
There are also some Taoist talismans that can enhance strength, which are strictly prohibited.
of course.
During this process, the fat man inadvertently mentioned the market conditions of some local inns.
Which inns have a good reputation, and which inns have had the history of overcharging their guests?
Upon hearing this, Zhong Lixiao inadvertently exchanged glances with the ancestor Zhong Anhe.
Afterwards, everything was self-explanatory.
This fat guy might be selling real exam questions and other materials, but he is secretly soliciting customers for many inns?
But the question is, with so many monks coming from all over the world, is there really any inn that can’t accommodate guests?
How bad would that be?
For the first time, Zhong Lixiao felt that this fat guy who smiled like Maitreya Buddha was really a piece of shit, and he put him on the blacklist immediately.
time flies.
After about an hour, the group, who had been moving as slowly as a turtle, finally arrived at the gate of Floating Cloud Fairy City.
After watching it up close, everyone was deeply shocked.
The city wall is a hundred feet high and stretches for who knows how many miles, with no end in sight.
Even Zhong Lixiao saw such a magnificent city for the first time!
On the city walls, one can even see many mottled marks of axe and knife cuts. It is obvious that such a magnificent fairy city has also experienced countless wars.
but.
It still stands proudly!
It seems to have witnessed the rise and fall of Baiyun Temple!
"Everyone entering the city must pay one spirit stone."
At the huge entrance of the fairy city, an armored soldier shouted directly at Zhong Lixiao and others.
The entrance fee of one spirit stone is really expensive.
But for the people nowadays, it is nothing.
Everyone took out their spirit stones and paid each other's city entry tax.
Afterwards, the armored soldier directly handed everyone two bound books.
After entering the city, everyone did not go around to play, but instead started to look through the two books.
When you come to a place where you are unfamiliar with, it is very necessary to first understand the local rules.
The title page of the first book reads "Summary of the Regulations of Floating Cloud Fairy City", and the other book reads "Chronicles of the Fairy City".
After a quick look, I found that the rules of Floating Cloud Fairy City are actually very simple.
First, any form of aerial flight is strictly prohibited for those below the Jindan level;
Second, except for a few places where it is clearly stated that fighting is allowed, all fighting and killing are prohibited;
Third, if you want to live in Floating Cloud Fairy City for a long time, you must register with the Qimin Office, apply for a residence certificate, and pay the residence tax on time.
Seeing these rules, Zhong Lixiao's first feeling was that Jindan Zhenren had a very high status.
Even the Floating Cloud Fairy City at the foot of the Upper Sect is still of high value and has various privileges.
Secondly, Fuyun Fairy City is really greedy for money.
You have to pay a city tax to enter the city; you also have to pay taxes if you stay there for a long time
And the payment is all in spirit stones, it really feels like it's not easy to live in the capital.
But when I think about the fact that fighting and killing each other are almost prohibited in Floating Cloud Fairy City, I think this is the safest city.
I believe it will have a strong appeal to many casual practitioners!
One has to admit that there are masters among the immortals in Baiyun Temple, and they know very well what is the most valuable thing in Fuyun Fairy City.
As for the second book, "Records of the Fairy City", it records many situations of the Floating Cloud Fairy City, including important routes, landmark buildings, shops, and specialties.
There are some underground fire houses that can be rented, some immortal food shops for immortal cultivators, and some heavenly medical pavilions that can help immortal cultivators solve various difficult and complicated problems. It is almost equivalent to a travel guide!
Zhong Lixiao guessed that these stores listed in the "Xiancheng Chronicle" had most likely paid a lot of advertising fees.
These immortals in Baiyun Temple may seem to be out of touch with worldly affairs, but when it comes to doing business, they are indeed very good!
The most outrageous thing is that a lot of what the fat man said with such confidence before was exactly what was in this book.
Thinking of those fools who paid money to buy intelligence before. Emmm!
As expected, not far from Taoyuan Zhong’s house, there was a big victim who had spent money and started cursing.
After cursing for a long time, someone suddenly had an idea and said, "Do you remember? The place called Tiancanlou mentioned by that fat guy is not in the "Xianchengzhi". This restaurant is very likely related to that fat guy!"
"Yes, let's go find him at Tiancanlou!"
Some deceived people were filled with indignation and rushed to Tiancanlou.
The Taoyuan Zhong family looked at each other in bewilderment.
This is really eye-opening. The fat guy who committed fraud directly to Fuyun Fairy City is not afraid of being beaten to death?
Zhong Lixiao also felt something was strange.
The fat man knew he was a liar, so why did he leave a Tiancanlou specifically for him?
This is obviously a bit unreasonable!
Does he have a grudge against the people from Tiancanlou?
