The entire city is as tall as a cloud, and the top of the city tower cannot be seen at all. Only three golden characters "Purple Ling City" can be seen in the clouds.
The surrounding city walls cannot be scanned with spiritual consciousness. Apart from pieces of clouds floating on them with the aura of fairy spirits, there is nothing else. The buildings in the entire fairy city are even more brilliant and magnificent. Cheng Ling doesn't know if this is the case in the entire city, because based on experience, there are at least some slums, but he can't see it at all at the moment.
Such a city is just the main city of a life star, and Ling Weixing is not a high-end star in the star world, with the highest strength of a five-star sect. It is conceivable that if they go to the Life Star with the Nine-Star Sect, how grand will their city be?
At the gate of Lingwei City, hurried monks passed by one after another. Cheng Ling looked at it for a long time, but his expression changed, because they didn't have fairy crystals at all, and they needed to pay a certain entrance fee to enter the city.
He smiled bitterly in his heart. This is no wonder the village chief. The cities on the edge of Dafeng Village generally do not need to collect city fees, as long as they pay a certain amount of herbs. They had known for a long time that there was no oil and water in the village at all, and they looked down upon those fairy crystals.
But the situation in front of you is different. The guards in Lingweicheng don't know you. You will not be allowed to replace it with anything else. Cheng Ling observed carefully for a moment and realized that each person needed at least five fairy crystals to enter the city. Counting him and King Kong, they needed ten in total.
what to do? Where can I get so many fairy crystals!
Cheng Ling cried without tears, and King Kong was dumbfounded. He had never been so far away from the village, so naturally he didn't know how to solve such a problem.
In desperation, Cheng Ling could only stand aside quietly, glanced at his storage ring, and threw out a lot of bits and pieces. What kind of seventh- and eighth-grade talismans, ninth-grade elixirs, herbs, five-element crystals, ninth-grade formation disks, etc.
He didn't know if these things could be exchanged for Immortal Crystal, but he had no choice but to give it a try.
The street stalls were set up, but the people entering the city had no time to look in his direction. They all looked in a hurry and were distracted. After waiting for most of the day, not to mention one piece was sold, and no one even looked at it.
Cheng Ling looked bitter and said to King Kong: "King Kong, roar twice to attract pedestrians on the road. If these things can be exchanged for some fairy crystals, we can enter the city to take the assessment."
King Kong was startled and asked in confusion: "How are you roaring?"
Cheng Ling touched his forehead... and glared at him fiercely, and said, "That's how you yell! Come on, come on, take a look, take a look, look at the ancestral secret recipe elixir, talisman array, and treasure Herbs and rare ores, don’t miss them when you pass by, it’s a rare opportunity!”
Phew, the world suddenly became quiet. No matter how honest King Kong was, he knew that it was not easy to say this. He asked in a trembling voice: "Do you really want to shout like that?"
Cheng Ling rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you have an immortal crystal?"
King Kong shook his head hurriedly.
"If there is no fairy crystal, then do you still want to go in and take the assessment?"
King Kong nodded.
"Then it's over. If we don't sell some of these things, how will we enter the city? How will we take the exam! Stop inking and shout!"
King Kong had no choice but to raise his voice and shout loudly: "Come on, come on, take a look, take a look, look at the ancestral secret recipe elixir, talisman array, precious herbs, and rare ores. Don't miss it when you pass by. It's an opportunity." It’s rare!”
Not to mention, paired with his coarse cloth shorts and his slightly exposed chest, he really looks like a rock-breaking performer under the overpass in Beijing...!
This shout has a significant effect. The monks who were waiting to enter the city came over curiously. Cheng Ling looked at the pile of broken bits and pieces thrown on the ground and pointed at them, but no one asked.
Cheng Ling's heart gradually turned cold. If these things could no longer be sold for fairy crystals, then he really didn't know what to do.
Just as the hope in his heart was gradually fading away, he saw a brilliant colorful light falling at the gate of the city.
Cheng Ling's pupils shrank and it was the first time he saw him flying in the sky. After the light dissipated, I discovered that two young men, a man and a woman, had walked down and were sitting on the flying magic weapon. Look at the treasure radiating from the magic weapon. It is by no means a simple thing. It is much better than Zhang Hu's refining of the colorful feathers. To be able to ride on such a flying magic weapon, the status of these two young men must not be simple.
King Kong was still shouting at the top of his lungs. After hearing this, the female cultivator came over curiously. When the male cultivator saw her move, he could only follow her.
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly in her heart, not expecting the two of them to arrive. Even the monks passing by didn't care about these things, let alone these two noble people.
The female cultivator came to Cheng Ling and glanced at the goods on the stall. She looked disappointed as expected. She was about to turn away when the breeze blew her away, but she saw the Five Elements crystals mixed in a pile of ore.
Her eyes suddenly lit up and she asked: "Brother, how do you sell these Five Elements Crystals?"
Originally, Cheng Ling threw out all the broken pieces and didn't do much to sort them out. These Five Elements crystals were all covered up by talismans and ores. Fortunately, this woman's sharp eyes were discovered by her, otherwise no one would have known how to do it. Can't sell it.
Cheng Ling was overjoyed. Could it be that as time went by, he could finally exchange for some fairy crystals? Just thinking about the female cultivator asking the price made him confused again. After all, he didn't know the price of the Five Elements Crystal at all.
He coughed twice, covered up his embarrassment, and said to the female cultivator: "This fairy has invited me. Actually, I don't know the price of these Five Elements Crystals. It's just that my brothers came to Lingweicheng for the first time to think about it. I went to take part in the disciple assessment, but unfortunately I didn’t have any immortal crystals to enter the city, so I had to sell some materials here.”
The female cultivator smiled slightly and said: "You are honest, let's do this. The quality of these Five Elements Crystals is pretty good. I will decide on one hundred immortal crystals, and I will buy them all as many as you have here."
Cheng Ling's heart moved. In fact, he didn't know whether the value of one hundred fairy crystals was reasonable, but the most important thing at the moment was to get a sum of fairy crystals first and go to the city to take the assessment.
He quickly collected all the five elements crystals on the ground and counted them. There were about thirty or so crystals. He handed over all the Five Elements Crystals and said, "Fairy, there are a total of thirty-six Five Elements Crystals here."
The female cultivator smiled slightly, took out some fairy crystals and said, "Well, it's not easy for you either. Here are four thousand fairy crystals. Take it!"
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The monks nearby were talking a lot, saying that Cheng Ling was so lucky that he earned four thousand immortal crystals so easily. But because it was right at the gate of the city, no one dared to snatch it despite the envy in their eyes.
Cheng Ling knew that wealth should not be revealed. With these fairy crystals, he should be able to stay in Lingwei City for a few days. Busy picking up the bits and pieces on the ground
, called King Kong, and walked towards the city gate.
After paying ten immortal crystals, the two entered the city.
The city is very large, with row upon row of buildings and a lot of pedestrians coming and going, even noisy.
Cheng Ling looked around, spotted an older and honest old man, and went over to ask: "Senior, please invite me. My two brothers want to participate in the sect's recruitment assessment for disciples, but I don't know where to go."
The old man looked at the two of them, nodded and said: "Go straight towards the long street, and you will see a large square. That is the assessment place for recruiting disciples. However, today is not the assessment period, and you have to wait for three days. You guys are here early.”
Cheng Ling said: "Thank you, senior, let's wait in the city!"
The old man said: "Lingweicheng does not allow people to sleep on the streets. Judging from the way you two are dressed, you don't look like rich people. Waiting in the city for three days will cost a lot of money for accommodation!"
Cheng Ling was startled and asked, "Approximately how many fairy crystals are needed?"
"The average Xianxi Tower costs at least one thousand immortal crystals per night, unless you go to the temporary reception in the east of the city. It is cheaper there, only one hundred immortal crystals per night, but you have to work for the city lord's palace."
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly. With the kind of house he went to, the two of them would have to leave after staying for two nights. If they went to the temporary reception office, they didn't want to work for the city lord's mansion in vain. After thinking about it, at worst, the two of them had to wait outside the city for another two days, and it would only cost ten more fairy crystals to enter the city.
Thinking of this, he bowed to the old man and took King Kong around the city to understand the general layout. Before nightfall, he left the city again and found a small forest shelter from the wind to rest outside the city gate. .
Two days passed quickly, and the third day was the time to assess the disciples. Cheng Ling took King Kong into Lingwei City again early in the morning and went directly to the central square.
But unexpectedly, there were still a lot of pedestrians on the road. This time, I also saw many monks exuding strong auras, and they must have gone to take the assessment together.
After walking for about a stick of incense, they arrived at the central square. Seeing the darkness ahead, they looked at each other and smiled bitterly. I thought they were early enough, but I didn't expect anyone to be earlier than them.
Cheng Ling raised his eyes and saw that there were many monks surrounding every place where the disciples were being assessed. Only flags were seen fluttering in the wind. They are written respectively: Wuling Sect, Yunlan Sect, Xiaoyao Sect, Tiangang Sect, Liehuo Sect, Wushuang Sect... etc. It seems that there are many sects recruiting disciples.
King Kong pondered for a while and then said: "Cheng Ling, I plan to try my luck with Tiangang Sect, what about you?"
Cheng Ling took a deep breath and said decisively: "Five Spirits Sect! Apart from Five Spirits Sect, it is useless to go to other sects."
King Kong opened his mouth briefly, admiring his heroic spirit in his heart, and said: "Then I wish you good luck, I'm going to the Tiangang Sect."
After saying that, he walked towards the place where Tiangang Sect was recruiting disciples.
Cheng Ling also walked silently towards the Five Spirits Sect. There were so many monks coming to take the Five Spirits Sect's assessment that the people queuing up were almost outside the square. I secretly smiled bitterly in my heart, there were so many monks and they didn’t know when the examination would last.
But unexpectedly, the progress was very fast. In less than an hour, the team was shortened by less than half. It's just that there are too many monks surrounded in front, so it's impossible to see what's going on. I feel a little worried in my heart. The assessment is very difficult, right? All the monks who left earlier were eliminated?
