Chapter 9: Reaching the World's Highest City

On the wide official road, an inconspicuous-looking freight carriage was parked on the side of the road. The outline of the huge city wall in front was clearly visible.

It's obviously not far away to arrive, but the carriage stopped here, which is really weird.

"You two, we're here."

The old man sitting in front looked towards the cargo compartment behind him and saw a thin-looking young man and a gentle-looking beautiful woman slowly coming out of the cargo compartment.

"Old man, this is the travel fare, please accept it."

As soon as the young man jumped out of the carriage, he came to the front of the carriage and stretched out his hand holding several Gintama coins toward the old man.

The old man quickly waved his hand with a smile, "Children, you are the one who cooked the food and gave you a ride. It is the old man who took advantage of me, so how can I charge you for your travel expenses?"

"Thank you, uncle."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao didn't say anything. He smiled and thanked her before returning to his mother.

The old man couldn't help but look at Huo Yun'er and sighed with a smile, "It's really enviable to be so sensible at such a young age. Seriously, don't you really need me to send you guys into the city?"

When she heard the other party praising Huo Yuhao, a look of shame appeared on Huo Yun'er's face. She gently rubbed Huo Yuhao's hair, smiled at the old man and nodded.

"We have other things to do. We are not in a hurry to go to the city for the time being. Let's say goodbye from here. Thank you for taking care of me along the way."

"When you are out and about, if you meet someone who is in trouble, just help if you can. It's just a small matter. Goodbye then, little friend."

The old man waved his hand, said goodbye to Huo Yuhao with a smile, and then drove the carriage towards the distance again.

"Mom, let's go to the city too."

It wasn't until the carriage disappeared from the end of the field of vision that Huo Yuhao looked at Huo Yun'er beside him and said.

Naturally, the two of them didn't have anything else to do as Huo Yun'er said. They just wanted to prevent people in the city ahead from seeing the old man accompanying them and being implicated.

Although the duchess may not be able to check here with her methods, it is always right to be careful.

After hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Huo Yun'er, who was belatedly coming to her senses, came back to her senses. A look of self-mockery appeared on her face, and then she took Huo Yuhao's hand and walked slowly towards the city ahead.

She never imagined that Huo Yuhao's words to protect his mother when he decided to leave the Duke's Mansion would come true so quickly.

As Dai Hao's personal maid, Huo Yun'er can be said to know very little about the outside world. A month ago, mother and son set out from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. The moment they walked out, you can imagine the confusion and panic in her heart. Know.

But Huo Yuhao, who was only six years old at this time, arranged everything in detail. She almost didn't do anything. After Huo Yuhao negotiated a few carriages, the two of them went all the way from the Star Luo Empire to the Tianhun Empire.

And finally arrived at Tiandou City, the capital of the Tianhun Empire, today.

The whole process was unreal, like a dream.

As for why he came to Tiandou City, it was based on Huo Yuhao's consideration. If there are any cities with the best public security, they would be the capitals of several countries and Shrek City. With the power of the Duchess in Star Luo City, it must be He couldn't wait. The Dou Ling Empire was too weak and was excluded by Huo Yuhao.

And Mingdu didn't even have to think about it. After excluding it, only Shrek City and Tiandou City were left. From a safety perspective, Shrek was definitely better, but Huo Yuhao needed to make money, so he finally chose Tiandou City. fight.

Zhu Lu didn't bring much money with her when she came to the Duke's Mansion that day, so the storage bracelet she gave him only contained nearly two hundred gold soul coins. For ordinary people, this was definitely a huge sum of money. If they lived in a small town, Living frugally on weekdays is enough to last for a long time.

But my mother has been working hard in the Duke's Palace in the past few years, and her body has accumulated a lot of hidden diseases. She needs to buy some medicinal materials to treat it. Moreover, his current physical fitness is too poor. After the transformation of the original sin of arrogance, he also needs more medicine in his developmental stage. Nutrition, more than one hundred gold soul coins seems like a lot, but if you really spend it, I'm afraid it won't be long before it bottoms out.

However, as a reborn person, Huo Yuhao naturally had no shortage of ways to make money. After some thinking, he decided to do both selling grilled fish and making soul guides for sale at the same time.

Although the money earned from selling grilled fish is definitely more than ten times worse than selling soul guides, it is not that simple to sell soul guides. After all, those rare metals are not cheap, let alone whether there are channels. To buy it, he must first have enough funds.

For two hundred gold soul coins, you can't even buy a pound of better rare metals, so before that, you can naturally only rely on the lower-cost grilled fish. The most important thing is that selling grilled fish can not only make money, but also Accelerate the unlocking of the Original Sin of Gluttony.

On the way to Tiandou City, his mother Huo Yun'er and the coachman provided him with a lot of gluttony energy, and the triggering method was also very simple. He only needed to have a desire for food in his heart. This was why he always insisted on cooking. s reason.

Relying on the increasingly refined cooking skills he had gained from communicating with his master Rong Nianbing in the God Realm in his previous life, Huo Yuhao now cooks food that makes people drool just by smelling it.

After a month, I have successfully turned a small part of one of the gray light balls in the mental space into dark yellow.

And he also summarized some situations about unlocking the origin of original sin.

The energy of the same kind of original sin can only be provided by each creature once every three days, but the energy of different kinds of original sin is not restricted.

For example, if a person smells the aroma of Huo Yuhao's food, he will generate the energy to unlock the original sin of gluttony, but he will have to wait three days to generate the energy of the original sin of gluttony again. However, if the other party suddenly shows an arrogant attitude at this time, he will provide Huo Yuhao with the energy to unlock the original sin of arrogance again, and he will have to wait three days to generate the energy of the original sin of arrogance again.

As for how this thing was discovered, it was completely when they were resting on the road. A passerby was attracted by the smell of food. After seeing his mother Huo Yun'er, he had evil thoughts and began to speak arrogantly. In the end, he was scared away by Huo Yuhao and became angry.

Gluttony, lust, arrogance, and rage.

A person provided Huo Yuhao with four original sin energies in a short period of time, which shocked him greatly.

In order to repay the other party, Huo Yuhao was very kind-hearted and gave this guy who spoke rudely to his mother a fate-judgment. As for what price the man would pay for this bad luck, it all depends on his luck.

In addition, Huo Yuhao also found that the higher the cultivation level of a person, the more original sin energy he would provide at one time. Compared with the arrogance shown by so many soul masters in the Duke's Mansion, which directly helped him unlock the source of arrogance in a short time, Huo Yun'er, as an ordinary person, obviously provided much less original sin energy.

But even so, the process was a bit too slow. After some comparison, Huo Yuhao found that after successfully unlocking the source of arrogance, it would become more difficult to unlock the remaining original sin sources.

If this is a rule, then when he unlocks the source of gluttony, the unlocking speed of the remaining five original sin sources may be further reduced.

At first glance, this seems to encourage the unlocking progress of the seven original sins to go hand in hand, but because the original sins of the people around him are generated, it is difficult for him to fine-tune it. In addition, Huo Yuhao has a hunch that continuously unlocking the original sin sources in a short period of time will cause great mental stimulation to himself. If he is a god, he will naturally not be afraid, but it may be difficult for him to bear after his rebirth.

It must be said that the effect of the Pride Origin is very powerful. If a person's willpower is not strong enough, he may try every means to unlock other Original Sin Origins, and finally be swallowed by his own expanding desires. This is like a trap full of temptations.

The slowdown in the unlocking speed gives him enough time to adapt to the effect of each newly unlocked Original Sin Origin.

So to be on the safe side, he still chooses to unlock them one by one and let nature take its course.

Although he cannot unlock them, with his understanding of the abilities of the seven Original Sin Gods in the God Realm, Huo Yuhao can roughly guess the power of these Original Sin Origins. For example, the effect of the Gluttony Origin should be related to Devouring...

Thinking about it, Huo Yuhao's attention fell on the spiritual space, which was mostly gray, but there was a faint hint of a strange dark red light ball.

That was the Original Sin of Lust.

Recalling the performance of the God of Lust in his previous life, his expression became a little complicated, and he only felt a little bit of sucking his teeth.

It shouldn't be... that exaggerated, right?
