Blue Card Starry Sky

Chapter 184 An Opportunity!
Lan Tian and his companions continued their journey, and before them stretched a magnificent and imposing complex of palaces. As far as the eye could see, they appeared to extend endlessly, each one taller and more majestic than the last. The golden roofs exuded imperial grandeur and majesty.

In front of the palace was a tall city wall, which completely surrounded the entire imperial city. The walls on both sides stretched as far as the eye could see, which gave you an idea of ​​how big and magnificent the imperial city was, capable of accommodating all the people in the city!

The first city gate has three different passages. The largest one in the middle is probably reserved for the city lord and is not open to the public today. Only the passages on the sides can be used to enter and exit the Imperial City. From a distance, the city is heavily guarded. The area outside the city is already filled with burly Hu Biao guards. These people are obviously high-level experts with profound cultivation levels.

This shows how rigorous and strict the defenses of the main city are under normal circumstances.

Following the crowd, everyone stepped through the imperial city gates and entered the true main city. They saw the luxury, the magnificence of the buildings, the grandeur and spaciousness of the palaces, and the various snacks displayed in every rest pavilion. The roadsides were lined with all kinds of colorful flowers, creating an elegant and comfortable, luxurious yet meticulous atmosphere.

The first palace complex is a place for prayer. Rows of them are filled with the smoke of incense and the sound of ancient music. The atmosphere is solemn and orderly, with people praying in an orderly manner for their heartfelt wishes, hoping for peace and happiness!

In the center of the prayer palace is a large energy pillar that can sense the energy fluctuations of each visitor, feel their piety, and predict their future luck and prospects. This is the greatest wish of the people who come here on the city lord's anniversary, hoping to receive blessings and peace.

Simply extend both hands and grasp the energy sphere in front of the beam of light, and the beam will sense the difference in each visitor. Ordinary people will only show a light response of one to three bars. Those who can shoot their light skyward, causing the beam to reach ten bars or more, are truly remarkable individuals and are VIPs whom the city lord will certainly receive!
Lan Tian observed the reaction of the light pillar. Ordinary people usually reacted at around two levels, but some cultivators reached five levels, clearly high-level experts. The higher the cultivation level, the greater the reaction and the higher the light pillar.

"boom"

An anomaly was detected in the beam of light; it suddenly blazed with white light and soared straight up, breaking through ten grids and reaching the rooftop, surpassing the limit of one hundred grids!
Immediately, everyone in the palace and even the imperial city was shocked. This was a rare and important figure! This person must be blessed with great fortune and possess unfathomable cultivation!
Everyone present turned to look, discovering that the one who triggered the beam of light was a young martial artist, a noble disciple with distinctive attire. Lan Tian immediately recognized him as one of those young, special nobles. This person truly had an impressive background and an extraordinary aura.

This alarmed the city lord, and the guards came over to respectfully invite him to see the city lord. He didn't refuse and a group of people followed him.

The people inside the hall were buzzing with discussion, wondering about this person's background. They were sure that such a commotion would earn him the city lord's blessing and favor!
It was truly astonishing. To encounter such a once-in-a-century genius on their very first visit was an incredible feat. This person must be exceptionally talented, given the city lord's eagerness to receive them. After a brief commotion, the people quieted down and began to pray in an orderly fashion, hoping to touch the pillar of light and be received by the city lord! A single step would elevate them to the top of society, bringing wealth and glory to their entire family and elevating them to the ranks of nobility!
Finally, it was Lan Tian and his group's turn. Everyone felt the beam of light. Yi Mengying and Su Qi's beams rose to between seven and eight bars, which was quite extraordinary! They were considered high-level experts here! Wei Ying only rose to five bars and then stopped, while the other companions were only between two and three bars, just ordinary people!
Lan Tian looked at the pillar of light and secretly probed it with energy fluctuations, but there was no reaction; he couldn't detect anything useful. The energy fluctuations disappeared naturally upon contact with the pillar of light, without any response.

When it was Lan Tian's turn, he didn't make any effort. He simply placed his hand lightly on the energy sphere and felt the changes in the beam of light.

At first, the energy sphere remained calm. Suddenly, the blue sky was touched, and the energy sphere vibrated violently. A burst of energy shot out, causing the main hall to vibrate abnormally! A beam of light suddenly burst forth, a strong golden beam, not a white beam, but a golden beam never seen before, illuminating the entire palace and making it instantly resplendent. The golden beam of light shot straight up, stopping at fifteen units.

Although the beam of light in the blue sky was an unusual golden color, it did not cause as much of a commotion as the previous beam that shot straight up and broke through a hundred beams. People thought that another person had broken through a hundred beams, but they did not expect that although the commotion was quite big, the effect was minimal, only fifteen beams.

A chorus of boos erupted. "Why isn't it a hundred-square beam of light?!"
However, breaking through to the fifteenth level is still a remarkable achievement, and being received by the city lord demonstrates that Lan Tian's cultivation level is quite high; he's considered a very strong individual within the Desolate Domain's cultivation system!

The cultivation system in the Desolate Region is different from that in the Blue Card Continent. The Blue Sky Clan cultivates elemental attribute skills, while the cultivation system in the Desolate Region cultivates their innate attribute skills, which are directly and significantly related to their race. The cultivation skills of different races are similar in terms of skill attributes, but other races cannot follow suit and cultivate the same attribute skills. Only specific races can cultivate their own race's attribute skills.

Therefore, your race can be determined by your attributes and skills; this is an unchangeable fact. Thus, the supreme ruler of that race will undoubtedly cultivate the attributes and skills of that race. It's obvious at a glance that those capable of cultivating two attributes are extremely rare; you could find only a handful in the entire desolate region.

Lan Tian's commotion also alerted the city lord, and the guards came to arrange an audience. It was unclear whether this was good or bad for Lan Tian; would his identity be exposed? If so, Lan Tian and his group would be in deep trouble, their operation in the wasteland would fail, and they might not return, completely thwarting the Blue Card Continent. What would they do then?
Thinking of this, Lan Tian immediately communicated privately with Yi Mengying and Su Qi, telling everyone to return to the NIO Chamber of Commerce and prepare for evacuation. If something happened to him and his identity was exposed, he definitely wouldn't be able to go back!

If Lantian doesn't return, everyone should close the shop and leave Tianlong City, then return to the Blue Card Continent with Luoxi and the others, and make further plans later.

The sudden turn of events put everyone on edge, and they were all worried about Lan Tian. They didn't know what would happen when he went to see the city lord; his life was hanging by a thread!
