Chapter 997: Sijunfang City, being charged protection fees
A vast mountain range with withered vegetation and withered trees. As far as the eye can see, there are bare patches everywhere.
At this moment, ripples suddenly appeared in the sky, and a hole several feet wide appeared out of thin air. Two spiritual lights flew out of it and quickly fell towards the ground.
A flash of light flashed on the ground, it was Li Changsheng and Ye Ruxuan.
"Such abundant fire-attribute spiritual power."
Li Changsheng's face was full of wonder, feeling the fire aura flowing in the air, and the pores all over his body were dilated.
"Husband, there are two suns in the sky!"
Ye Ruxuan exclaimed and looked up at the sky, her eyes full of surprise.
Li Changsheng looked up and saw two suns hanging in the sky, one large and one small, making it difficult to look directly at them.
"Why are there two suns?"
Li Changsheng's face was full of confusion.
At this moment, I realized that what I saw was a desolate place, everything was red, even the soil under my feet was red.
"Husband, let's find a place with people to ask first!"
Ye Ruxuan looked a little uncomfortable, and her forehead was already sweating.
"That's right!"
At this moment, they don't know if this is the Tianyang Realm. They have to ask someone to confirm.
The two randomly chose a direction to leave. After flying thousands of miles, a blue escape light appeared within the scope of their consciousness, and behind the blue escape light there was a red escape light.
The two people sensed that the blue escape light was a late-stage god-transformation monk, while the red escape light was a mid-level fifth-level fire-attribute demon bird.
The two of them were full of doubts as to why they were being chased by monsters in the middle stage of divine transformation in the late stage of divine transformation.
The two suppressed their cultivation to the Void Refining stage and chased after him. Within a dozen breaths, they landed in front of the blue escape light.
The blue escaping light was suddenly startled and stepped back a few feet, revealing a tall and thin old man wearing a blue gown.
This man's clothes were torn, his face was pale, his right arm was charred black, and he was still bleeding.
"Who are you two, and why are you blocking my way?"
While he was talking, a red vulture with a wingspan of four to five feet came close to him.
As soon as their wings flapped, two huge fireballs quickly flew towards the three of them. The surrounding fire-attribute spiritual energy was drawn into them, making them even more powerful.
Just as the old man was about to make a move, Li Changsheng came to him with a lunge, flicked his fingers, and two sword energy burst out, and two fireballs exploded immediately.
Li Changsheng sucked it casually, and a stone the size of a thumb fell into his hand.
With a flick of his finger, there was a "whoosh" sound, and the stones seemed to turn into sharp swords and shot towards the red vulture.
The red vulture opened its mouth and sprayed out, and a huge fireball hit it.
Just hearing two "bang bangs", the red vulture fell to the ground.
The first sound was an explosion of fireballs, and the second sound was an explosion of a red vulture's head.
"Junior Huang Yiming, thank you two seniors for saving me!"
The old man in blue shirt immediately saluted respectfully. He could kill a fifth-level monster with just an ordinary stone. In his opinion, at least a Void Refining monk could do it.
At the same time, his face was also full of nervousness. In this wilderness, if the two of them wanted to kill people and seize the treasure, it would be difficult for him to resist, not to mention that he was still injured.
"Don't worry, our couple traveled here just to ask you for directions."
Li Changsheng quickly spoke to comfort him.
The easiest way is to search for souls directly, but they are not evil people, so naturally they will not do this.
Huang Yiming also felt that there was some truth in what he said. If Li Changsheng really wanted to do something to him, he wouldn't have to speak so softly to him, and his tense emotions slowly relaxed.
"Senior, please ask me. I will tell you everything I know."
Li Changsheng was in a bit of trouble. If he asked them directly, wouldn't they indirectly expose their identities?
"Give me a map of the city closest to here."
The city is a mixed bag of dragons and snakes, making it the easiest place to get information.
Huang Yiming did not dare to refuse and quickly handed over a blue jade slip with both hands.
Li Changsheng swept his consciousness and asked a random question: "How long has this Sijunfang City existed?"
"I don't know this junior. It's rare for me to go to Fangshi."
Huang Yiming said seriously.
"How far is it from Yang's house?"
"Yang family? Maybe this junior is ignorant and has never heard of this cultivating family, but there should be a monk named Yang in the city. Seniors can go and inquire about it."
"This is a healing elixir that can repair your injuries. The monster also gave it to you."
Li Changsheng handed a cyan porcelain bottle to Huang Yiming, and pointed to the red vulture in the distance.
"Ma'am, let's go!"
The two turned around and flew toward the southeast, and soon disappeared.
Huang Yiming opened the porcelain bottle, and a strong fragrance of red pepper poured into his nose.
He quickly closed it, looked around, put away the corpse of the monster and left the place quickly.
…
A vast oasis, a majestic city is located here, and a red light curtain envelopes the city.
There was no one outside the city, but there was a lot of people inside the city, forming two extremes.
Wang Wei has a cultivation level in the late stage of Xu Lian. He is the guard captain of Fang City and is currently leading a team to patrol the border of the oasis.
"Boss, someone is coming."
Wang Wei raised his head and looked high in the sky, only to see two light spots flying towards Fangshi.
"Come on, go take a look and cheer me up."
Wang Wei took up the escape light and rushed over, and the others immediately followed.
After a while, two figures landed on the ground, and Li Changsheng and Ye Ruxuan appeared.
"Stop!"
With a loud shout, Wang Wei immediately stopped Li Changsheng and his wife at the edge of the oasis, and his teammates behind him immediately surrounded the two.
"What do you mean?"
Li Changsheng frowned. This was the first time he was stopped when entering the market. Moreover, he had not yet stepped into the oasis and was still some distance away from the market.
Seeing that both of them were at the level of Lianxu, Wang Wei was also a little surprised. He straightened his chest and said seriously: "Seeing that the two Taoist friends are exhausted, they must have come from afar. I should let you know that if you want to enter the market, you have to pay protection fees."
"Protection fees, what do you mean?"
"Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"
"Except for those forces that have cave paradises, everyone in the Tianyang Realm lives in oases."
"This market was built by the four combined true monarchs to protect the human race. They spent countless treasures and spiritual crystals. The spiritual energy inside is peaceful and the climate is cool. You don't think it's free, do you?"
Wang Wei looked at them with a suspicious look.
"So that's it!"
Li Changsheng thought to himself. Along the way, they could see only a limited oasis, and there were barren lands everywhere, and some even turned into deserts.
And the oasis where the four monarchs' market was located was the largest they had ever seen.
Although the fire spirit power in the outside world is strong, it also contains strong fire poison. Long-term absorption is also harmful to the human body. It is completely different from Luotian Realm.
However, their top priority is to understand the situation in this world. Thinking of this, he looked at Wang Wei: "How much is the protection fee?"
Wang Wei saw that the two people's clothes and temperament were very extraordinary, and said: "The rules of the market are that the fusion of the great power is free, the refining of the void is 100,000, the transformation of the spirit is 10,000, and so on."
"So expensive?"
Ye Ruxuan frowned. It was the first time she saw such an expensive protection fee, which was also considered as the city entrance fee.
"Is it expensive? Have you seen the city defense formation of the market? Do you know how many spirit crystals are consumed every day?"
Li Changsheng felt strange when he saw it from afar. Why is the market formation always open? Now it seems that it is most likely to block the fire poison.
They can't reveal their identities now. After thinking for a moment, they handed a storage ring to Wang Wei.
Wang Wei scanned the city with his spiritual sense and let the two enter the city.
"Boss, give me 200,000 spirit crystals as soon as you say so. I'm afraid they are very wealthy!"
"Don't worry, once you enter this place, no matter how wealthy you are, you will eventually run out of money."
Wang Wei sneered. This world lacks spiritual objects, and cultivation is extremely difficult.
He handed over half of the 200,000 spirit crystals, and gave some to the rest of the brothers. The rest was enough for him to cultivate for a while.
Thinking of this, he felt happy.
