Chapter 45 Humanoid Elixir of Immortality
In the northern region of the Eastern Wilderness, lies the Holy City, also known as the Divine City.
This is the absolute center of the Northern Region, and it is as famous as the Primordial Ancient Mine.
Qin Feng set off from the small town closest to the Holy City, speeding all the way.
At noon, the distance between Qin Feng and the Holy City was less than a hundred miles. The number of pedestrians on the road increased, and strange beasts galloped around like the wind and lightning. Most of them were cultivators.
Half an hour later, Qin Feng finally arrived at the number one city in the Northern Region.
The ancient city is magnificent and grand, with its city walls lying horizontally like a dragon, stretching endlessly, as if cast from molten copper, shimmering with a metallic luster.
After a brief pause, Qin Feng followed the crowd and entered the city discreetly in line.
After the gathering in the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness a month ago, Qin Feng, the only heir of the Tianxuan Sect, has come into the sights of all the major powers.
There are definitely many people who are thinking about him right now, or more precisely, they are thinking about the broken imperial weapon on his body.
Besides this reason, the Holy City is a place where great forces converge, including the royal families of the Central Plains, the golden families of the Northern Plains, the powerful figures of the Southern Ridge, and the holy lands of the Eastern Wilderness...
In a place like this, even throwing a brick into the street could knock out several powerful elders. Nobody knows if the person passing by is some low-profile powerhouse, so it's best to be cautious.
Soon, Qin Feng found a general store and spent five catties of Pure Source to buy the most complete map of the Holy City. Although it was expensive, it was indeed comprehensive.
The document not only clearly marks the locations of the gambling stone workshops of various major forces, but also provides special introductions to the priceless stones from those famous top-tier stone gardens.
Besides the jade gambling den, it also features introductions to the top ten pleasure quarters in the holy city, including which one has the best reputation and which courtesan has the longest legs and the slimmest waist...
It also covers aspects of daily life, such as clothing, food, housing, and transportation, and provides information on which restaurants' signature dishes are worth trying.
Qin Feng was quite curious to see whether the legs of the top courtesan of Shuiyue Xiaozhu or Ma Yi from the Dragon Clan world were longer.
But after thinking about it, he decided against it. He had already decided on his first stop in the Holy City.
Although she was a newcomer, her feelings for the Tianxuan Holy Land were not as profound as those of the original owner.
But no matter what, now that he has inherited the identity of the Holy Son of Tianxuan, he must naturally bear the consequences.
Moreover, he was able to live only thanks to the elixir of immortality left behind by Wei Yi.
Humans should have some conscience; if they lose their conscience, they are no different from beasts.
Following the map's directions, Qin Feng found his destination without much effort.
Tianxuan Stone Archway!!!
The stone archway headquarters of Tianxuan Holy Land in the Holy City.
But now, with the fall of Tianxuan, this once magnificent stone archway has completely declined and been divided up by various forces.
Today, Tianxuan Stone Archway is almost just an empty shell and some waste stones.
Even so, the various forces still did not let it go.
Before Qin Feng even got close, he could hear a commotion from afar.
"This is the stone archway of the Tianxuan Holy Land. Now that Tianxuan has been destroyed, this place has become a no-man's land. You can come and go as you please, so why can't we?" This was the voice of a rogue cultivator who wanted to find a bargain at the Tianxuan Stone Archway.
"Go away, you country bumpkin, where did you come from? Go cool off somewhere else."
"Who says this is no-man's-land? There is an agreement among our various holy sites."
"The final ownership has not yet been decided, so it is temporarily held by all the holy sites."
"The Tianxuan Holy Land made great contributions to the Eastern Wilderness human race. Now that it has been destroyed, their territory is not one that you can enter and leave at will."
"We are preserving the last vestiges of glory for Tianxuan!!!"
Disciples from the Four Symbols, Nine Heavens, and Great Evolution sacred sites spoke one after another, their words righteous and awe-inspiring.
"Okay, okay, okay"
The rogue cultivators, lacking any connections, could only angrily turn away and leave. Only after they were far away did they dare to whisper behind their backs.
"What do you mean by guarding Tianxuan? A bandit is a bandit, yet you make it sound so nice."
"Only officials are allowed to set fires, while common people are forbidden to light lamps. All the rare stones in the Tianzihao Stone Garden have been taken away, and we can't even have a bowl of soup."
"Alright, alright, let's say less. Who told them to have the Holy Land backing them up?" The rogue cultivators shook their heads and left one after another.
Qin Feng did not approach any further; he had originally intended to follow the crowd and offer his condolences.
Judging from the current situation, it seems unlikely to work.
Furthermore, Qin Feng felt that the various holy lands had sent people to guard this place, probably intending to wait for him to come to them.
"Very well, the Nine Heavens Holy Land, the Four Symbols, is it... Let's settle both old and new scores together, and start with you."
Without saying a word, Qin Feng turned around and left, heading towards the nearest Nine Heavens Sacred Land Stone Archway.
The gambling dens of major holy sites in small outlying towns like Pingyan City usually have nine-story courtyards.
The headquarters in the Holy City has a total of eighteen floors, plus a top-tier stone garden displaying priceless rare stones.
After inquiring, Qin Feng learned that the stone archways of each sacred site shared a common rule.
Only the first nine layers, that is, the outer perimeter, allow the free buying, selling, and taking of Originium.
The stones in the central nine-story section and the Tianzi No. 1 Stone Garden must be cut on-site within the stone workshop.
The reason for this rule can be attributed to Zhang Lin, the Celestial Master from four thousand years ago.
The Holy Maiden of Yaochi, who was in charge of guarding the Yaochi Immortal Stone Workshop, lost herself in the process, and other sacred stone workshops also suffered heavy losses, which led to the creation of this rule.
Even if they actually find something good, at least they'll understand why they died, and as the first witnesses, they'll have the opportunity to buy it back and reduce their losses.
"Nine floors it is then."
Qin Feng decided to stick to the old rules and keep a low profile.
He really doesn't dare to touch the rare stones in the Tianzihao Stone Garden right now.
After all, he is currently all alone and has no backing. If he were to discover some treasure, he might be killed to silence him.
To acquire a priceless rare stone, one needs the right timing, location, and people—all three are indispensable.
In one day, Qin Feng traversed the outer courtyard of the Nine Heavens Sacred Land Stone Archway, collecting a pile of valuable items containing alien species sources before leaving discreetly.
The next day, Qin Feng arrived at the gambling stone market in the Four Symbols Sacred Land, and the third day was at the Great Evolution Sacred Land...
Qin Feng thought he had been discreet enough, but he was still being targeted, and not just by one side.
After several twists and turns, Qin Feng successfully shook off his pursuers by relying on the earth-shattering Origin Heaven Divine Technique.
……
Shuiyue Xiaozhu (Water Moon Cottage)
"It seems that extraordinary person from that small town has already arrived in the Holy City," the Third Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty in Zhongzhou said with a smile.
"Four Symbols, Nine Heavens, Great Evolution, you don't seem to be very popular with extraordinary people," Jiang Jiajie mocked.
"snort"
The Four Symbols Saint Son, Si Tianheng, and the others snorted coldly, their faces grim.
They didn't know why that source technique expert was keeping a close eye on their family.
Even if you're trying to take advantage of them, don't just target them. Do you think they're easy to bully because they're ranked at the bottom of the Holy Land?
"I wonder if that extraordinary person will make another move tomorrow, and which stone workshop will he target?" asked the young master of the Northern Plains Golden Family.
"The Four Symbols, the Nine Heavens, the Great Evolution, and next it will be either the Purple Mansion, the Beginning of Ten Thousand Beginnings, or perhaps the Yao Guang, the Dao Yi..."
"Why don't you just list out the names of all the holy sites?"
……
On the fourth day, Qin Feng used the method of changing the world to transform himself into the appearance of an ordinary little Taoist priest in the original Pingyan City, and prepared to go to Wanchu Stone Workshop.
On his way, he passed a stone gambling market that looked like a Taoist temple. After examining it closely, he realized that it was a stone market in a Taoist holy site.
The Nine-Aperture Stone Man, the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold Sword, and the roots of the Human-Shaped Immortal Elixir all originate from this place.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng couldn't help himself and made a turn to enter the Dao Yi Holy Land.
However, he did not rush to the top-tier stone garden, but instead kept a low profile and picked up bargains as always.
Just as Qin Feng was concentrating on selecting stones with the Origin Heaven Divine Eye, two exquisitely beautiful, yet... completely naked, figures suddenly appeared in his line of sight, startling him.
