Chapter 41 Holy City
"There has never been a War Immortal in the heavens. If possible, I might be able to fill this void. Who can say for sure what the future holds?"

Upon discovering entirely new possibilities, Qin Sheng felt as if the world was vast and he could roam freely.

Nine lifetimes in the mortal world are too long for me; I only seize the day!
Now, let's march to the Holy City!

A day later, Qin Sheng, who was flying at high speed, suddenly stopped. The ground to his left shook violently, and dust rose everywhere.

A caravan riding strange beasts galloped across the land. They stormed into a village, robbed the villagers of their fertility, and even abducted several young women.

"Bandits and thieves..."

Qin Sheng narrowed his eyes, rode the rainbow light and rushed over, landing in the village.

"who are you?"

The bandit leader was a burly man who stared at Qin Sheng with a murderous glint in his eyes.

Qin Sheng glanced at him, his gaze so sharp that the bandit, who was at the Divine Bridge Realm, froze on the spot, unable to move.

With a surge of divine sense, Qin Sheng searched through the man's memories, his brows furrowing deeply.

This was a band of outlaws roaming the surrounding area, specializing in robbery, kidnapping, and murder.

They would also force the people of each village to find sources to supply them, and if their demands could not be met, then the massacre of the village was not a one-off incident.

"Damn it."

Qin Sheng shook his head and spat out a stream of flames, instantly incinerating all the bandits.

"Thank you, immortal! Thank you, immortal!"

The villagers knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qin Sheng repeatedly, while the rescued women wept with joy.

"This group of bandits is dead, but there will always be another group. You should make plans as soon as possible and try to migrate to the territories of those reputable sects."

Qin Sheng left after saying these words.

That's how it is in the Northern Regions; bloodshed and chaos are its eternal themes.

This place is rich in resources, and this substance is of greater significance to cultivators than oil and gold are to mortals on Earth.

As a result, a large number of bandits and thieves emerged. They roamed the northern lands like locusts, and as soon as one group was wiped out, another would appear, endlessly.

Some bandits are independent cultivators, while others are supported by various cultivation forces, which serve as tools for them to plunder resources.

Further up, there are truly formidable bandits, such as the Thirteen Great Bandits who are renowned throughout the Northern Region; each of them is a top expert in the Sendai Secret Realm.

The thirteen bandits' raids were more sophisticated; they didn't target ordinary people or minor sects, but instead focused on robbing the source stone mines of holy land families.

The Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness holds an extremely special position on the ancient star of the Big Dipper. Not only are there the holy lands and aristocratic families of the Eastern Wilderness, but also the dynasties of the Central Plains, the Golden Family of the Northern Plains, and many others, all of which have settled in the Northern Region.

The situation here is the most chaotic and complex in the history of the Big Dipper.

Later, on the way to the holy city, if they encountered bandits committing evil deeds, Qin Sheng would not hesitate to help them.

Finally, after traversing a long distance, Qin Sheng arrived at his destination.

The Holy City, the center of the Northern Region, is built on an oasis spanning tens of thousands of miles, which is revered as sacred land by the people of the Northern Region.

This place is not only rich but also safe. No bandits would come here to plunder, since all the famous and renowned lineages of the Beidou sect have gathered in the Holy City.

Even the most ruthless bandits wouldn't dare to offend everyone to death.

This city is incredibly majestic, with its walls stretching endlessly like a giant beast coiled up. The surrounding area is brimming with spiritual energy, a style completely different from the desolation of the Northern Region.

"We've finally arrived in the Holy City!"

"My God, it's so magnificent, it's countless times bigger than our village."

"I heard that the Holy City, also called the Divine City, was a city that floated in the air a long time ago, and only fell to the ground in the ancient times."

Amidst the gasps of amazement, Qin Sheng entered the holy city, which was even more prosperous inside, with its continuous palaces and halls, like entering a fairyland.

Qin Sheng weaved through the crowd, admiring the scenery and thinking to himself.

"I wonder if that unscrupulous Taoist priest got anything out of it."

The meeting place between him and Duan De was set in the Holy City.

Qin Sheng originally intended for Duan De to go directly to the Yao Guang Holy Land to find him, but the fatso was too afraid to go and refused to go no matter what.

Duan De feared that after he went to Yao Guang, Qin Sheng would ask his elders to help him make a profit without any investment, leaving behind the Dao Ming Mother Stone and his several hundred catties of flesh...

Qin Sheng could only say that the unscrupulous Taoist priest was simply judging others by his own petty standards. Was he really the kind of person who would betray others? What a pity…

The Yao Guang Holy Land has its own residence in the Holy City. After identifying himself, Qin Sheng checked in directly.

He asked the disciples on duty here, and no one had come looking for him during this time.

What is Duan De up to?
The holy city was prosperous, and this was Qin Sheng's first time visiting. He planned to take a look around.

However, not long after Qin Sheng left the Yao Guang camp, someone followed him and quickly approached him.

Qin Sheng glanced back and saw a familiar chubby face that kept winking at him before turning away.

Qin Sheng roughly understood Duan De's meaning and followed him. Eventually, the two arrived at a quiet and deserted lakeside.

"You guys are really something, always meeting in places like this," Qin Sheng said with a laugh.

"Unlike you, a disciple of the Holy Land, I am all alone and helpless. It would be best to be careful."

Duan De stared at Qin Sheng and asked, "Where is what I asked for?"

"You may not have brought what I need."

The two looked at each other, and finally Duan De forced a smile.

"Brother Qin!"

"Stop, you're not my brother."

"Didn't we say before that we would chop off a chicken's head, burn yellow paper, and become sworn brothers?"

"The past is the past, and the present is the present. If you like to talk about the past so much, why don't you mention your past life?"

Duan De was furious; this kid really didn't know anything about respecting the elderly or caring for the young.

“I brought the things,” he said in a low voice.

Qin Sheng immediately broke into a smile, beaming with enthusiasm:
"Good brother, I knew I hadn't misjudged you!"

Duan De's eyes widened. "Am I your brother again now?"

I have never seen such a shameless person!
"look at yours."

"This place isn't quite right. Let's find somewhere where we won't be disturbed, and then we can admire each other again, shall we?"

Duan De said in a low voice, "The treasure is precious. This is the Holy City, and there are countless powerful figures here. If we are discovered by some peerless expert, neither of us will be in a good situation."

Qin Sheng thought about it and realized that Duan De's words made sense.

The Holy City is full of hidden talents; if you throw a brick on the street, the person you hit will either be a disciple of a major sect or a direct descendant of a powerful family.

The old man you bump into on the road might be a supreme elder from some holy site.

The "passersby" in the holy city are especially terrifying; they know almost everything, making transactions here unsafe.

"Let's leave the city separately," Qin Sheng said.

The two left the holy city one after the other, and only reunited after they were far away from this ancient city.

Duan De smiled brightly, "Immortal Qin, I know an extremely secluded place where we will definitely not be disturbed. Shall we go there to make our deal?"

"Fellow."

Qin Sheng gave a forced smile, "You're not being sincere."

"If you don't dare go to the Holy Land of Yao Guang, do you think I would dare go to your territory with you?"

"Don't mention it, I'm serious about this deal," Duan De declared passionately.

"With my character, what is there to distrust? My name, Duan De, is my reputation!"

It is precisely because I know your character, Duan De, that I dare not trust you.

Qin Sheng was certain that the hidden place Duan De mentioned had already been ensnared by a massive trap, and once he went there...

He might not kill you, but he'll definitely rob you of all your money.

In the world of "Covering the Sky," believing in Duan De is like believing in a dog.

No, you can't trust dogs in this world either!
