Although the Ancient Forbidden Immortal Territory is vast, the human race does not have many bases on it. There are only three large cities in total.
Bei'an City, located in the north, is one of these three big cities.
Such a big city was built here mainly to serve as a transit point, or for the powerful human beings who came to explore to rest and exchange their daily necessities.
Although it is said to be a large human city, Bei'an City is actually not as huge as imagined, covering a total area of only fifty miles.
Moreover, almost all the trading centers are concentrated in Bei'an Square in the city. The other places are basically residential buildings. As long as you pay a certain rent, you can practice and live there.
In mid-July of this year, Lu Li and An Ming finally arrived at the south gate of Bei'an City after traveling for more than three months.
The city wall is not high and is ancient and mottled.
Looking at the three big characters on the city gate, An Ming couldn't help but relax, "Senior, we are here."
Recalling his experiences over the years, An Ming felt extremely cordial when he saw the words "Bei'an City" again. At the same time, he was secretly grateful to Lu Li. If Lu Li hadn't taken action in time, he might not have been able to come back safely.
Lu Li and An Ming walked side by side towards the city gate.
There were guards at the city gate. They were not ordinary soldiers in armor, but practitioners wearing the same cyan clothing. Lu Li took a sneak peek and found that these people actually had the Distraction Stage cultivation level, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
To enter the city, you have to pay a city fee of 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones per person. An Ming was ready to help Lu Li pay it, but Lu Li refused. After each paid his share, he entered the city smoothly.
There is a straight road into the city. Although there are not many people coming and going like other cities, it is not deserted either. At a glance, everyone can see that they are all cultivated.
Although most of them are below the Nascent Soul stage, they are quite astonishing.
"Senior, let's stay here first. It's only the middle of July. The Void Boat will not return from here until the last day of each month. There are still more than ten days." The two of them walked closer to the city. Outside the restaurant, An Ming suddenly stopped and said.
Lu Li had no objection and thought it would be a good time to see how the restaurant in this fairyland was different from the one below.
Afterwards, the two of them walked into the restaurant next to them.
However, after entering, Lu Li discovered that the layout inside seemed no different from the lower realm.
If there are some differences, it would be that both the diners and the service staff are well-educated, and the smell of the food, food, and wine will whet your appetite from a distance. You don’t need to taste it to know that these ingredients are delicious. Extraordinary product.
When the waiter saw the two people coming in, he greeted them humbly like ordinary mortals in the lower world. He greeted them with a smile: "Welcome to Yuehua Building. Are you two seniors having a meal or staying in a hotel?"
An Ming consulted Lu Li for his opinion, and then said calmly: "First give us two rooms on the fourth floor, and then prepare a Shiquan Banquet and two pots of fine moon dew brew in the hall on the second floor."
The waiter was overjoyed when he heard this, shouted, and led the two of them towards the second floor.
As expected, the second floor was much quieter than the first floor. The two randomly chose a seat by the window and sat down.
Not long after, the waiter who left just now brought a table full of food and drinks, handed the room keys to the two of them, apologized, and left.
"Senior, let me toast you." An Ming picked up the wine glass and said with a smile.
"Please." Lu Li raised his glass to greet him, took a sip and then slowly put it down. After a short pause, he said, "Fellow Daoist An, can you explain to me the Nanhuang Immortal Realm?"
"Of course it's no problem, I just don't know what you want to know about, senior?" An Ming nodded and replied.
"Customs, customs, sects and cities are all applicable. To be honest, there were some mistakes in my practice, which caused a lot of memory loss. I am very confused at this time." Lu Li pretended to have a headache and rubbed his forehead.
Hearing this, An Ming couldn't help but suddenly realized, thinking to himself, no wonder Lu Li asked such questions before, there was something wrong with his head because of his feelings.
Then, he explained it to Lu Li.
According to An Ming, the Nanhuang Immortal Territory is larger than the Ancient Forbidden Immortal Territory, but there are not many sects in it, with only three in total.
They are Qingxuan Sect in the south, Ci'en Temple in the north, and Amaterasu Gate in the west.
Among the three major sects, Qingxuan Sect is the strongest. It occupies most of the Nanhuang Immortal Domain and has many cities under its jurisdiction. Linyuan City, where the Anming family is located, is under the jurisdiction of Qingxuan Sect.
And An Ming is also a disciple of Qingxuan Sect.
Hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but wonder: "How strong is the Qingxuan Sect?"
"There are more than 300,000 outer disciples below the level of distraction, fifty or sixty thousand inner disciples of distraction and integration, thousands of Mahayana peak masters, and dozens of earthly immortal elders. According to the sect leader, he seems to be a true immortal. With his later cultivation, he may resign soon..."
Speaking of Qingxuanzong's strength, An Ming couldn't help but show a proud expression on his face.
Lu Li was also a little shocked after hearing this. Such strength is really not simple, and to be considered an ordinary inner disciple when he reaches distraction, the requirements are really not low.
But then he asked doubtfully: "What do you mean by resigning?"
"It's like this. Our Qingxuan Sect has rules. Once the sect leader reaches the peak of True Immortal cultivation, he must leave the Nanhuang Immortal Domain and go to the Second Heaven to report to the Sect. He cannot stay in the First Heaven." An Ming explained.
This means that the Qingxuan Sect in the Nanhuang Immortal Domain is just a branch of a certain sect above, not the headquarters. It can be seen that the background of the Qingxuan Sect cannot be underestimated.
At this moment, two people, an old man and a young man, suddenly walked up from the stairs. The old man was wearing a brown robe, and the younger one had a face of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slightly arrogant expression. He walked in front and paused slightly before heading towards Lu Li. come over.
These two people were clearly the ones who went to the crack in the valley to look for the ghost fruit.
An Ming obviously recognized the two of them. When he saw the two of them walking this way, he paused for a moment and hurriedly stood up and clasped his fists: "Greetings to Senior Xi, I've met Brother Jin."
Unexpectedly, this time, a hot face touched a cold butt. The young man just raised his head and glanced at An Ming, then walked past him, causing An Ming to feel embarrassed.
The old man in brown robe also just smiled at An Ming and followed the young man to the other end without saying anything else.
An Ming shook his head and sat back down. Seeing Lu Li looking at him strangely, he felt embarrassed again, "I made senior laugh."
Lu Li turned back and looked at the old man and the young man sitting in the distance, "Are those two people of good background?"
"Senior, I don't know. The young man's name is Jin Peng. He is the first family in Linyuan City. He is the young master of the Jin family. He was born with dark spiritual roots. He is only over 800 years old and has already reached the early stage of Mahayana cultivation."
"As for that old man, his name is Xi Kang. He is a protector hired by the Jin family at a great cost to protect Jin Peng. It is said that he is a strong man in the early stage of the Earth Immortal..." An Ming sighed and slowly Xu explained.
More than 800 years old in the early Mahayana period? He's really awesome, but he doesn't seem to have a very good character.
Lu Li thought to himself, and then asked curiously: "Aren't you from the An family? Why are you greeting us with such a smile? Do you think the An family has no status in Linyuan City?"
