Chapter 44 Nine-Layered Immortal City

After a night's rest, Shen Lian, who left Tianshui Market, changed his face again.

He turned into a middle-aged man with a majestic figure and an ordinary face.

Tianshui Market is 7,000 miles away from Jiuchong Xiancheng. The journey seems far, but in fact, these lands have long been developed into cultivated land and turned into the secular world where mortals live.

Generally speaking, the immortal city and the market are like large and small immortal islands standing high in the secular world.

Some immortal cultivation families that have been passed down for many years have a large number of mortal bloodline clansmen.

The road to Jiuchong Xiancheng is much safer than in the wilderness.

The cities and villages of the mortal counties are scattered on the land like chess pieces.

Shen Lian went to the mortal counties to take a look at the beginning, but later he didn't have much interest.

The spiritual energy in the mortal world is exhausted. If you put aside the spiritual energy, it is a very stable place.

When he collects enough resources, he can go to the counties in the mortal world to hide for a few years.

Not now.

Five days later.

Shen Lian, who was not in a hurry to travel, saw a tall and majestic mountain.

Starting from the bottom of the mountain, layers of platforms were carved out on the mountain, which looked like terraces from a distance.

Each layer was built with a towering wall.

On the bottom three platforms, there were many houses.

From the third floor upwards, each layer was shrouded in brilliant rays of light.

"So big..."

Looking at the Nine-Layered Immortal City from a distance, Shen Lian couldn't help but admire it.

Each layer of the city was at least a hundred miles in size, extending all the way to the top of the mountain, and the highest point was shrouded in hazy fog.

In the fog, there were even more colorful fairy lights looming, which were obviously created deliberately by formations.

At the foot of the mountain, there was also a wide road with countless monks coming and going, and caravans carrying large and heavy things.

Many monks could be seen walking through the surrounding mountains and forests.

There were people flying swords, riding birds, and flying clouds. There were all kinds of magic weapons and flying boats.

Before he got close, Shen Lian saw two foundation-building cultivators, carrying powerful spiritual power, flying into the middle third-layer fairy city with magic weapons.

There was a roar from the sky, and a huge spirit ship came from afar and landed in the city.

This looked like a fairy trading area.

The Yunmeng Market in the wilderness was a completely castrated version of the Bishui Sect.

Seeing many people landed far away from the fairy city, Shen Lian also followed suit.

Because he found that flying close to the fairy city would attract a lot of attention.

The closer you get to the fairy city, the more you will feel a strong sense of pressure.

Since he came to the fairy city to get supplies, Shen Lian naturally did a good job of research and backup.

The Nine-Layered Fairy City is the only place where two casual cultivators are stationed among the five major fairy cities in Chu.

The lord of the fairy city is called Qiushan Zhenren, a fake Dan Zhenren.

In addition to condensing the golden elixir by themselves, there is also a way for foundation-building cultivators to advance to the stage of forming the elixir, which is the external elixir path.

After refining the demon elixir, one can be promoted to the stage of the false elixir.

Of course, there is no need to think about continuing to advance in the future, and the life span will not increase much.

The strength of the false elixir cultivator who refines the demon elixir is determined by the grade of the demon elixir and the degree of compatibility with himself.

It is rumored that the strongest false elixir cultivator can be comparable to the middle stage of the golden elixir, and the weakest is only half the combat power of the early stage of the golden elixir cultivator.

True Man Qiushan is also a legend in Chu.

In Shen Lian's words, he is the son of the little destiny.

When this real person cultivated to the perfection of the foundation-building cultivator, his life span was only 230 years old.

In theory, it is entirely possible to fight for the golden elixir realm.

But True Man Qiushan got a demon elixir from nowhere, and directly chose the path of breaking the way, turning himself into a big false elixir with combat power comparable to the early stage of the golden elixir.

Now this big false elixir real person has been sitting in the Nine-Layered Immortal City for more than a hundred years, and it is rumored that his life span is almost gone.

But a fake elixir that is comparable to a real person in the early stage of the golden elixir has a strong deterrent power while still alive.

Outside the lowest city, Shen Lian followed the flow of people to the side hall next to the city gate.

"Senior, there are four types of identity jade tokens. The fourth-level token does not require spirit stones and can only be used to walk and live in the lowest level city."

"The third-level token requires three spirit stones and can enter the lower three levels of the fairy city."

"The second-level token requires ten spirit stones and can enter the middle three levels of the fairy city."

"The first-level token requires one hundred spirit stones and can enter the seventh and eighth levels of the upper three levels."

"Each token can stay in the city for one year."

Looking at the four tokens in front of him, Shen Lian asked casually: "Which level is Tianxialou?"

"On the seventh level."

Take out one hundred spirit stones from the storage bag, Shen Lian took the token and entered the fairy city.

The moment he stepped in, a spiritual power swept through him like a ripple, and finally dissipated quickly.

Flying is prohibited in the city, and those cultivators flying outside all landed obediently near the sky above the city.

"Senior, you just got your identity jade card. It seems that this is your first time in the Nine-Layered Immortal City. Do you want to learn about the special services of the Immortal City?"

Shen Lian had just entered the city when a cultivator who looked very smart came up to him.

Shen Lian took a look and found that this person was only at the second level of Qi training.

"Senior, our fairy sister's skills are the best in the entire Nine-Layered Immortal City. I guarantee that you will experience the fusion of yin and yang and penetrate the narrow road."

Gan Wenshao said while carefully observing the changes in Shen Lian's expression.

"If senior doesn't like my sister, we also have fairy rabbits... They all have spiritual roots and have been cultivated since childhood... There are also other flavors... Demonic beasts... There are also ancestors who are incarnation, so that senior can experience the friendship between life and death... "

Seeing that Shen Lian was about to leave, Gan Wenshao was a little reluctant, "Senior, do you need to buy anything? I am Gan Wenshao. He has lived in Jiuzhongxian City since he was a child. There is nothing from the ninth floor to the first floor that I don't know."

"Senior, you only need two spiritual stones for one trip."

"One piece is fine."

Shen Lian glanced at Gan Wenshao. Back then, he was in the mountains and forests of Fang City inhaling miasma poison. It took him two or three days to get five spiritual stones, and sometimes he didn't even have five.

It's quite easy for this little friend to earn Lingshi, and the key is that it's safe.

With a flick of his finger, a spiritual stone fell into Gan Wenshao's arms.

Gan Wenshao grabbed the spirit stone and put it away, "Come here, please, senior..."

"Take me somewhere to stay."

"Senior, there are three most suitable places to live in the Nine Layers Immortal City. They are on the fourth, sixth and seventh floors. I don't know which floor I want to go to."

"The sixth floor."

"Introduce me to Jiuzhongxian City."

The two were walking on the street, and Shen Lian looked around.

"Senior, since this is your first time in Jiuzhongxian City, if you want to buy spiritual items, the one with the most comprehensive categories is naturally the Seventh Floor Tianxia Tower, but the spiritual items in Tianxia Tower are more expensive.

If you want to find rare items, you can go to the auction. There will be an auction every other month. "

…

"If senior wants to sell some unused spiritual objects, you can go to the Worry-free Pavilion on the third floor. Even if you sell the magical artifacts for the Foundation Establishment Overhaul, there will be no trouble."

Gan Wenshao was very good at observing people's emotions. Seeing that Shen Lian's expression did not change, he changed his voice and said, "Senior, you can also go to the Wang family, Wu family and other shops on the fourth and fifth floors. It is more fair to buy and sell spiritual objects there. ”

Shen Lian nodded.

He currently doesn't have many spirit stones on his body, so he will first find a place to live, draw talismans or try to make alchemy in exchange for some spirit stones.

"Go and take me to find a place to live first."

"yes."

Gan Wenshao took two quick steps and led Shen Lian forward.

"Senior is tired from traveling. There is a fairy in Tianxiang Inn on the sixth floor who is good at massaging and acupoints. Senior..."

Shen Lian glanced at Gan Shaowen and said, "Your business is quite extensive."

"Senior is ridiculous, I just mixed a few spiritual stones to practice." Gan Wenshao nodded and bowed, "It seems that senior likes peace and quiet, so I will take senior to Jingxin Workshop."

Under the leadership of Gan Wenshao, the two came to a large courtyard full of flowers on the sixth floor.

Outside the courtyard, there stands a stone tablet with the word 'meditation' carved on it.

"Senior, Jingxinfang has arrived."

Entering the courtyard, there is a path paved with smooth gems. There is a small pavilion a few feet away, with a man in black robe sitting cross-legged inside.

"Senior Xiao, this senior wants to rent a courtyard."

The man in the stone pavilion opened his eyes and looked at Shen Lian.

"Xiao Huaijian, what kind of cave do you want to rent?"

"Just wait for B."

Shen Lian opened his mouth. Gan Wenshao had already introduced the courtyard of Jingxinfang on the way here.

Class A buildings are built on the second-level spiritual veins and can be used to support the cultivation of foundation monks.

Although the second-class houses are far away from the second-level spiritual veins, the spiritual energy is still sufficient. For the Qi-training monks, the spiritual energy is more than enough. The monthly rent is forty spiritual stones.

"The rent of our house starts from one month. If you leave early, you will not be refunded the spiritual stone."

Xiao Huaijian spoke calmly, with a lukewarm expression.

Shen Lian didn't care and took out the spirit stone to pay the bill, which was cheaper than in Yunmengfang City.

Xiao Huaijian clapped his hands, and soon a woman wearing blue linen clothes came from behind the stone pavilion.

"Senior, please come with me."

Shen Lian walked towards the courtyard, and Gan Wenshao bowed to Xiao Huaijian and exited the Jingxin Workshop.

The courtyard of Jingxinfang is very large, with houses hidden among green trees and flowers. The woman in linen led him outside the small courtyard marked No. 22. ’

Standing outside the small courtyard, a jade talisman appeared in the hand of the woman in linen clothes. After injecting spiritual power, ripples appeared in the sky above the small courtyard.

"There is a small spirit gathering array set up in the house. If you need anything else, fellow Taoist, you can send a message to me through the jade talisman."

After handing the jade talisman to Shen Lian's hand, the woman in linen clothes slowly exited the house.

Shen Lian looked at the rented house and nodded with satisfaction.

Although there is only one large room in the small courtyard, there are multiple rooms separated inside. Each room is very spacious and can be used for different things.

Shen Lian scanned the corners of the room and checked carefully. Shen Lian placed his three formations in the room.

After doing all this, he sat down with peace of mind.

I won’t practice any more today and take a good rest.

At night.

The three formations were operating and the room was extremely quiet.

Shen Lian was sitting cross-legged on the futon used for practice, and an ethereal voice sounded from somewhere.
