Looking at the sky, water and sky are the same color.
Chu Mu inquired a lot about Shuitianfang.
There are also many speculations about Xiuxianfang City, which is one of the best in a radius of thousands of miles.
But... a hundred hearings is not as good as a first sight.
Fangshi is located on the shore of the lake, but this lakeshore is somewhat special. It is a protrusion extending toward the lake. Shuitianfang is also located on this huge protruding land surrounded by water on three sides.
Surrounded by mist, it is a simple illusory formation used to confuse ordinary mortals.
Immortal cultivators can see clearly by filling their eyes with mana.
At a glance, it looks like a city in the water amidst the clouds and mist. The water and sky are all the same color, like a painting, real but also a bit illusory.
After Xu Yuan told him, Chu Mu also knew a little more about Shuitianfang.
Different from the Jade Emperor Valley, Shuiyunfang has been developed as the core city of the Xie family for a long time, and has already formed an ecological environment belonging to the world of immortality.
In Shuiyunfang, in addition to the large number of Xie family members, there are also many casual cultivators who have settled here.
The Xie family has clan rules. Descendants of the family who do not have spiritual roots are not allowed to live in the clan. Instead, villages, towns and cities are established around Fangshi to accommodate the descendants who do not have spiritual roots, and the family will take care of them.
As for other settled casual cultivators, the Xie family has no restrictions, thus forming an ecological environment where immortals and mortals live together in Shuiyunfang.
The villages, towns, and cities around Fang City are all descendants of immortal cultivators. Therefore, the existence of immortal cultivators is not a secret within hundreds of miles around, but is something that everyone knows.
If a descendant of a mortal is lucky enough to have spiritual root qualifications, it is obviously a very simple matter to enter the path of immortality.
At least, it is much easier than his wasted pursuit.
And this ecological environment that has taken shape has undoubtedly made Shuiyunfang City more prosperous.
According to what Xu Yuan said, there are eight large cities and countless villages and towns within hundreds of miles around Shuiyunfang. There are at least millions of descendants of immortal cultivators.
With a huge population base and the advantage of being close to immortals, many new immortal cultivators are born every moment, providing Shuiyunfang with cheap labor and supplies.
Moreover, compared to the chaos outside Yuhuanggufang City, Shuiyunfang is obviously a little different.
After all, the bond of family blood still has some sense of friendship.
The city has a radius of five hundred miles and is a restricted area where the use of force is strictly prohibited.
Even though there was still some distance from Fang City, Chu Mu could clearly see groups of law enforcement team cultivators patrolling outside Fang City.
If it were in the Jade Emperor Valley, if it was such a distance from Fang City, it would be inevitable to peek in the dark. But in Shuiyunfang, the immortal cultivators along the way were all well-behaved.
This prohibition, under the fetters of family blood, is obviously implemented much more thoroughly than in Jade Emperor City.
After all, the majority of the secular people around Shuiyunfang are still members of the Xie family.
"Peach Blossom Spring..."
Looking around, Chu Mu couldn't help but sigh,
From what I have seen and heard so far, the area around Shuiyunfang is really a peach blossom garden that only exists in fantasy for ordinary mortals.
Human survival is nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation.
The most important food is the rice that can be enjoyed under the grass and the care of the immortal cultivators who can call the wind and rain.
The next place to live, if there are immortal cultivators who put stones into the walls, it can easily become the best secular residence.
Clothing and travel are also taken care of properly.
The roads are all wide and straight, and they have obviously been solidified and repaired by earth-attribute spells.
Horses that are rarely seen in the outside world can be seen everywhere here.
As for clothing, it was even simpler. Along the way, he saw many clothing plants that were obviously researched.
With the foundation of the various arts of cultivating immortals in the world of immortality, even a little bit of residue exposed on the fingertips is enough to easily allow mortals to live an unimaginably good life.
And this residue, around Shuiyunfang, really fell on the common people under the influence of blood and family ties.
Recalling the dire straits in Nanshan Town back then, it was hard not to sigh with emotion.
People are really different.
When you arrive at Fang City, you will see a long street extending to the end of your field of vision.
The entire Shuitianfang City has a traditional tic-shaped layout.
People were coming and going on the street, and the level of hustle and bustle was even worse than that of Jade Emperor City.
As for the shops along the street, they are not much different from those in Jade Emperor City.
There are hundreds of arts of cultivating immortality, and all kinds of creations are dazzling.
However, the price is much cheaper than that in Jade Emperor City.
The soaring price fluctuations do not seem to have much impact on this city, which is far away from the whirlpool of the storm.
After looking around, Chu Mu looked at the book in his hand. Every cultivator who enters Fang City can receive a copy of Xie's Law.
That is, all the rules and regulations in the city ruled by the Xie family.
Opening the cover of the book, what comes into view is a series of prohibitions, which are similar to the Jade Emperor's laws of the Sun family. They are mandatory rules under power. They are not reasonable, let alone justice.
After flipping through a few pages, Chu Mu put the book away, and the bustling crowd in front of him came into view again.
He pondered for a moment, and finally reached the end of the street and stopped in front of a large hall.
Entering the hall, there are all kinds of long-lost recruitment information, mission bounties, and even... wanted orders.
After a moment, Chu Mu slowly withdrew his gaze.
The only good news is that the wanted order of the Changsheng Sect was not published in Shuiyunfang.
In other words, in this Shuiyunfang, on the surface, he is not an evil cultivator.
Of course, that's just the surface.
After all, such a huge reward is enough to make many, many people crazy about it.
If the whereabouts are really leaked, it is true and evil, and it is not just a mouth.
After pondering for a while, Chu Mu walked out of the hall and turned his eyes to the light screen panel in his field of vision.
Immediately, he looked at the vast and boundless East Lake again, thoughtfully.
After a while, he took steps and continued to stroll around the market.
Although it is still a new arrival, it is obviously different now.
When he first arrived, he was a weakling with no ability to protect himself. Now, in the Qi training realm, he dare not say how strong he is, but self-protection is definitely not a big problem.
After some inquiring, the understanding of Shuiyunfang was transformed from hearing to real knowledge that seeing is believing.
Different from the previous closure under the rule of the Sun family, Shuiyunfang is quite open and tolerant like the Changsheng Sect.
The huge Shuiyunfang does not really belong to the Xie family. The rest are owned by other families, forces, casual cultivators, and even the Changsheng Sect's properties are established in this Shuiyunfang.
The spiritual vein in Shuiyunfang is even higher than the third level, and there is a real Jindan who sits here all year round.
Moreover... the Xie family's attitude toward casual cultivators seems to be extremely generous.
This seems to be visible in every aspect of the market.
The lowest-grade houses in the city are rented for one broken soul for one month. Houses like these in Jade Emperor City are all abandoned in the slums outside the city, with no one paying attention or caring.
And in Shuiyunfang, it is a house that is located in Fangshi, protected by Fangshi's formation, and also supplied with spiritual energy!
Moreover, on the southwest side of Fang City, the Xie family also has a dedicated Yijuxian Village.
Any casual cultivator can take the Xie family's assessment without setting any threshold.
Cultivation of various arts, magic...
Regardless of the spiritual root qualifications, even if the spiritual root is useless, as long as you have a certain amount of talent in any aspect and pass the assessment of Juxian Village, you can become a guest of the Xie family and enjoy the salary of the Xie family.
Standing in front of Juxian Manor, Chu Mu looked at the posted notice in front of him, looking slightly lost in thought.
On the notice, the treatment, rules, and restrictions of becoming a guest of the Xie family are all clear.
Xie family guests are divided into three grades, with the third grade being the lowest and the first grade being the highest.
According to the notice, the salary of guest ministers consists of three parts. One is the basic salary, the third-class guest salary is 30 lings per month, the second-class guest stipend is 60 lings per month, and the first-class guest minister is 100 lings per month.
This salary is fixed.
Secondly, there is the cultivation salary. According to the guest's cultivation level, there are clearly differentiated cultivation salary levels.
The third is the reward salary, which is a salary calculated based on the number and contribution of the guest minister in completing the tasks assigned by the family.
Contribution points can also be exchanged at the Xie Family Contribution Treasury.
Moreover, each of the third-class guest ministers has different authority within the Xie family.
Other various benefits are also clearly listed.
As for the price of enjoying the benefits, it is also very simple and clear.
Within the contract period, follow the Xie family’s arrangements.
The contract period is at least ten years, and the rest is up to your own discretion.
Looking at the notice in front of him, Chu Mu couldn't help but compare it with the treatment he knew about the Changsheng Sect.
Comparing the two, Xie's guest's treatment was obviously much better.
But this is only an apparent gap in treatment. There is obviously a huge gap in hidden benefits.
After all, guest Qing is just an outsider in the Xie family.
In the Changsheng Sect, even if they are just outer disciples, they are still members of the Changsheng Sect.
This concept is obviously very important in the world of immortality where profit is king.
He had no intention of trying to be a guest. He had gone through the most difficult time, and he finally had a free and easy life. Who would be willing to find a father for him.
With many thoughts in his mind, Chu Mu finally stopped in front of a square at the end of the city.
The square was very busy.
There are airships circling and landing in the sky, and many airships are slowly taking off vertically, and many immortal cultivators are shuttled among them. Some are riding on the airships, and some are getting off the airships.
At first glance, it looks like a very large airport in the previous life, except that the people landing and taking off here are all artifacts from the world of immortality.
Although immortal cultivators can ascend to heaven and earth and are almost omnipotent, this obviously does not hinder the existence of transportation vehicles such as flying boats.
After all, for ordinary casual cultivators, the dangers of traveling alone, or even traveling alone, are obviously somewhat unpredictable.
It is obviously much safer to travel directly to various cities by flying boat. Even if the ride is expensive, it is obviously insignificant compared to your own life.
Moreover, the vastness of Dachu's territory obviously makes this type of flying boat sailing a huge market.
In the Jade Emperor Valley, which was once ruled by the Sun family, although there were flying boats, most of them were privately owned by the Sun family and had not been exposed to all immortal cultivators. At that time, he only had a glimpse, and it was difficult to see his true appearance.
After the arrival of the Changsheng Sect, they also established external flying boat routes, but due to the tense situation between Jade Emperor City and the surrounding areas, they only led to the hinterland of the Changsheng Sect.
His attention had always been on East Lake, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.
As for the flying boat field in Shuitianfang in front of us...
Chu Mu walked into the square, and after a moment, he walked out.
At this time, there was already an extra drawing in his hand.
A drawing introducing the route for flying boats in Shuitianfang.
When the drawings were spread out, there was a map and a criss-crossing airship route.
The map is centered on Shuitianfang, with flying boat routes crisscrossing it, connecting various cities within the Xie family's sphere of influence.
After a cursory glance, he focused on observing the city at the edge of the map.
The territory of Da Chu is vast, and the Changsheng Sect is located in the Changsheng Mountains in the northern territory of Da Chu, covering most of the best areas in the north of Da Chu.
Although the Nanshan Li family is named after Nanshan, it is located in the northwest. The northwest is bounded by Nanshan, which is the Li family's sphere of influence.
The Changping Zhao family is entrenched in the ice and snow land northeast of Dachu. The three northeastern states are all within the Zhao family's sphere of influence.
The Langya Wang Family and the Donghu Xie Family were respectively entrenched in the central territory of Chu. Further south, bounded by the Chu River, was the southern coastal area, which was the Chen Family's sphere of influence.
Judging from the map in front of us, the Xie family in East Lake is almost completely surrounded in the center.
If we use secular terms, it is a place of four battles, easy to attack and difficult to defend.
But judging from the current situation, the family and the sect are at the same level, then the existence of the Changsheng Sect seems to be the real place of the Four Wars of the Central Plains, surrounded by heroes!
And around Dachu...
Chu Mu frowned slightly, recalling the news he had learned in the Jade Emperor Valley.
Beyond the northern border of Dachu is the Xingluo Grassland, which means it is as vast as the sky and the stars.
Whether this is the case or not, Chu Mu doesn't know. Even in this world of immortality, due to the distance factor, in many cases, three people become tigers, and it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.
But its name, Xingluo, seems to reflect the vastness of the grassland. It is said that on the Xingluo grassland, tribes form a group, where immortals and mortals live together, and conquests continue all year round.
It is said that ten thousand years ago, when the Changsheng Sect was established, the first generation of the Changsheng Sect signed a contract with the generation of overlords on the Xingluo Grassland, vowing not to invade each other, but they do not know whether this is true or not.
In the west of Dachu, it is said that thousands of years ago, it was also ruled by a huge force that was not inferior to the Changsheng Sect.
Later, for unknown reasons, a melee broke out and split into more than a dozen national forces, large and small. For thousands of years, there has been the same chaos and endless conquests.
To the east is the vast expanse of the vast sea. The three northeastern continents are bordered by the vast sea below and the Xingluo Grassland above...
In the south, it is even more clear. The Chen family was established in the name of Hanhai. The boundless sea is the scene of the southern sea area of Dachu that has not changed for thousands of years.
All kinds of thoughts were circulating in his mind, and a map of the territory with a general context also appeared in Chu Mu's mind.
One thing is very clear, that is, once chaos breaks out, the whole world will be in chaos!
Chu Mu raised his head and glanced at the sky, then returned his eyes to the map, finally settling on the big river in the southernmost part of the map.
The river is the Chu River, and to the south is the southern sea area, the vast sea, and the sphere of influence of the Chen family.
When something happens in East Lake, chaos will break out.
The world is so big, and judging from the topography, it seems that this is the only place, so it should be a little peaceful.
It doesn't matter whether it's in a corner or it's self-contained.
At least with the terrain, it's easy to stay out and reap the benefits.
Naturally, it is difficult to be affected by chaos...
…
Update 4200, the plot needs to be sorted out next.
