The realm of mountains, the holy capital
As the center of the entire continent, the prosperity and grandeur of the Holy City are unparalleled.
There are row upon row of houses, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians. Not to mention the buildings that stand like hills, the wide road that can run ten carriages parallel, and the holy hall built above the clouds. Everything is full of rough and bold wilderness atmosphere. Like a wild giant, he is standing under the sky, holding a wooden stick and raising his head to ask the sky.
The scene where humans and beasts mix and live in peace and harmony on the streets is a bit more civilized and orderly than other places in the mountain realm.
There are even several times more humans than monsters in the Holy City.
This is not surprising. If a monster's IQ wants to reach the standard of ordinary people, it must be at least level three. Those second-level or even lower-level monsters are ignorant, brutal and indulgent, and can rarely communicate normally.
Human language is the universally accepted communication tool.
Therefore, it is not uncommon for the large and small monster families in the Holy Capital to be filled with a large number of human slaves, including mortals, monks, and even Jindan masters who are slaves and maids.
This is the world of demon clan.
However, compared to other places, the status of the human race in the Holy City is much higher. When walking on the street, you will rarely encounter monsters bullying and robbing humans at will.
Even if you are a slave, you still have a master. In the Holy Capital, who knows the background of the other master?
What's more, in the Holy Lord's Palace, the human officials and officials are like the ministers across the river. If you accidentally offend a favorite, wouldn't it be a slap in the Holy Lord's face?
Therefore, after verifying their identity at the city gate, Yang Zhen and others walked on the street and did not encounter any provocation from anyone who was short-sighted.
By the way, there are many wanted posters posted on the outer wall of the city gate, the most conspicuous of which is the portrait of Fairy Dongxiao. However, apart from the matching color of the dress, nothing else is right. The appearance is dove-shaped, the face is dove-shaped, and the look is so fierce that it can make a child stop crying.
In addition, as a fugitive who poisoned the demon commander three years ago, Yang Zhen was among them and occupied a small position on the city wall.
"There is a reward of tens of millions of spiritual stones, and you can choose one of the magic weapons of the fifth level and below, tsk tsk." Yang Zhen said as she walked: "In this case, I am afraid that the two Nascent Soul monks will not be able to resist the temptation and look for Fairy Dongxiao everywhere. ah!"
There are two human Nascent Soul True Lords in the Mountain Domain, named Gu Zheng and Han Rui respectively. One is good at refining weapons and the other is proficient in alchemy. Both serve as elders in the Holy Palace and are also the founders of the Holy Capital Academy.
As the team marched forward, Zhu Zhu walked at the front with his head held high. He was the deputy commander and was nominally ordered by the leader of the village to go to the Holy Capital to purchase supplies. The others were all his followers.
The real purpose is, of course, the best spiritual stone.
If there was anywhere else in the mountain realm where one could get the best spiritual stones, it would be the Holy Capital.
Several people walked around and inquired, and soon they arrived at Fangshi, the largest city in the west of the city.
Then, go directly to Wanbao Pavilion, which is the most famous store in Fang City. It is seven stories high, with countless treasures of heaven and earth, and piles of magic tools, talismans, and elixirs.
Yang Zhen has high hopes for this place.
"Fellow Daoist Liu want to buy the best spiritual stone?" In an elegant room on the third floor, a fat-headed human shopkeeper asked in surprise.
This is already half an hour later. During this period, Yang Zhen sold a large amount of spiritual materials accumulated in Iris Village, and finally got the opportunity to have a private interview with the shopkeeper.
"Doesn't your store have one?" he asked.
The shopkeeper shook his head: "The best spiritual stones are not for sale. Don't fellow Taoists not even know this?"
Of course Yang Zhen had heard of it, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to great lengths to discuss with this person. However, sometimes you might as well pretend to be stupid and listen to what others have to say.
He clasped his hands in his fists and said respectfully: "This kid comes from a remote mountainous area in the Jipin Empire. I am favored by my family's commander, who gave me a chance to learn more about it. This kid has never heard that top-quality spiritual stones are not for sale."
The shopkeeper heard what he said sincerely, and in addition to the previous transaction, the other party was generous and generous, so he became interested in making friends, so he sighed and explained in a low voice:
"The best spiritual stones are treasures that can be transformed into spiritual veins. Once they are obtained by some unruly human monks and find a place in the wilderness to practice with concentration, wouldn't they be freed from the control of the saints?"
In the demon realm, every spiritual vein discovered has its own owner, and most of them are infected by demon energy and can only be used for the demon clan to practice. Not only are there few left for the human race, but the spiritual energy is mixed and impure. It must be used under the supervision of the demon clan. Therefore, for the top-quality spiritual stones that create spiritual veins, the demon clan will certainly not let them circulate in the world.
However, this also has a consequence, that is, some special spiritual plants need to grow near uncontaminated spiritual veins. It was in this name that Yang Zhen came to buy the best spiritual stone.
"This is going to be difficult." He looked embarrassed and said with a grimace: "Shopkeeper, you have also seen that the red bird waiting downstairs is the sister of our handsome man. This time the boy is here. I have issued a military order, and I must get the best spiritual stone, otherwise, not only will the commander be unable to spare me, but I will not be able to forgive the aunt downstairs either!"
As he spoke, he took out three third-level blood refining fruits from the storage bag: "It's disrespectful to have a little specialty product, so I would like to ask the shopkeeper to make it easier for you and don't let me lose this job, otherwise I...hey! "
The following words were unspoken, but the fearful expression on his face immediately made the shopkeeper feel worried.
"Brother!" He pushed the blood refining fruit back: "It's not that I don't want to help you, but to tell you the truth, no one is selling this top-quality spiritual stone, not to mention my Wanbao Pavilion, even if you search the whole market, no one will sell it. !”
"Is there no place where I can buy it?" Yang Zhen was disappointed and asked while insisting on sending the blood refining fruit.
"All the top-quality spiritual stones are in the treasury of Lord Holy Lord. No one can obtain them unless Lord Holy Lord rewards them." The shopkeeper spread his hands and said with a bitter smile.
However, he did not refuse those few blood refining fruits again. As if he was well-deserved, he lightly pressed the corner of the table, pondered for a long time, and analyzed for the young man: "The best spiritual stones are tributes from all over the world. If I don't worry, I can wait ten or eight years and someone will find them." It may be possible to get the best spiritual stone and rush to discuss it with them."
It's not that Yang Zhen has never thought about this. Not to mention the Demon Realm, even in the Eastern Region, the best spiritual stones also appear in this way. However, the Eastern Region has a set of methods passed down from generation to generation, and the excavation efficiency is very high. Even in a corner of the Xu Kingdom, several can be found every year. However, in the Demon Realm, there is no such inheritance. It is purely a matter of luck. Sometimes, news of the appearance of top-quality spiritual stones will not come out until decades.
Yang Zhen didn't want to stay here for so long.
"Brother," he begged: "If I go back to reply to my commander like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to deliver the message! Do you have any other news? Even if it's not reliable, I'll pass it on to the commander so that he can pass it on. He has given up. You have to do your best, even if you have to die in the end, I will admit it!"
"Hey!" The shopkeeper sighed with sadness in his heart: "You mountain people are so upright! Speaking of unreliable news, I really have one here. The thing must be true, but that spirit Shi is not someone your marshal can covet."
"Brother, tell me quickly!" Yang Zhen was overjoyed and urged quickly.
"Yupinfang, a set of magical weapons refined by Lord Shengzun, Zhengming. There are top-quality spiritual stones there, and there are quite a lot of them, nine! However, your commander dares to touch Lord Shengzun's magic weapons. ? Haha!”
…
After leaving Wanbao Pavilion, Yang Zhen and others asked several large stores, and the answers were all the same.
After making insinuations at various places about the refining of magic weapons in Yupinfang, I also learned more about it——
It is said that this magic weapon has been refined for half a piece of armor and is personally presided over by Zhenjun Gu Zheng. As for what kind of weapon it is, no one knows;
The Demon Lord attaches great importance to this magic weapon and goes to the workshop every year to inspect the progress;
The special minerals on Hongni Island are related to this magical weapon.
etc.
In the evening, the group found an inn to stay. Yang Zhen planned to go to other places the next day to find out if there was a way to enter the magic weapon refining site.
What he didn't expect was that he would find a way out that night.
Most of the inns in the Holy City provide expired newspapers. On the one hand, they attract customers, and on the other hand, they are also a way to make money.
Yang Zhen has been hiding in XZ for the past few years and has not learned much about the Mountain Continent. This time she saw such a good thing in the inn. She immediately took out the spirit stone and bought the rest of the dibao from the inn’s sales over the years. I bought a copy, then closed the door and studied it with Zhao Yue'er.
Soon, he saw such a piece of news in a Di newspaper from six months ago.
