Arriving at the gate of the city, Jin Zhuo finally said: "I have important matters to attend to, so I won't go with you."
Cheng Yan didn't show it on his face, but he set off fireworks in his heart: "Senior, take care."
Jin Zhuo entered the city gate first and disappeared into the crowd.
If she wasn't going to participate in the competition in Yaoguang City, she would definitely turn around and leave now.
There are many people entering the city, and there are several arch entrances at the gate of Yaoguang City.
Let the demon control masters with different cultivation levels enter respectively.
Cheng Yuan and others were in the foundation building stage, so they entered the second arch.
The arch is beautifully carved, with a lifelike carving of a Luan bird in the sky above.
"Thirty spiritual stones per person." The entrance guard said expressionlessly.
"So expensive?" Jiang Tu grabbed his storage bag, his face full of distress.
"What fellow Taoists don't know is that these thirty spirit stones also include a map of Yaoguang City, a "City Entry Manual", "Yaoguang Food Guide", "Yaoguang's Ten Sacred Scenes", and an entrance ticket to the Sunset Spring." The guard handed over a large gift bag.
Cheng Yuan praised: "Yaoguang City is really thoughtful." He is also good at doing business.
"But we are in this together, and we don't need everyone to get a big gift package."
Hearing this, the guard, who had been relatively enthusiastic just now, immediately knocked on the sign on the side: [The entry fee is thirty spirit stones, no bargaining! 】
"Those are all free gifts. If you think they are too many, you can just have one."
Yes, this Yaoguang City really has its own tricks.
If you want to enter the city, you naturally have to hand over the spirit stone obediently.
Only after passing through the arch did I realize that the entry fee for entering the city was also based on cultivation level.
It's not that someone with a noble status doesn't need spiritual stones, but the higher the cultivation level, the more spiritual stones are needed.
Only ten spirit stones are needed during the Qi refining period. Thirty foundations, one hundred golden elixirs, and one thousand spiritual stones in the Nascent Soul stage.
There is another entrance above Nascent Soul, and the entrance fee is unknown.
"It's really a matter of taste!" Yan Chu said.
Cheng Yan somewhat admired Yaoguang City's move. As the demon masters' cultivation level increased, their ability to accumulate spiritual stones became stronger.
Just like when she first entered Qi Refining, thirty spirit stones would be enough for her to gather for a long time. Now thirty spirit stones are completely acceptable to her.
Unlike some cities, high-level monks do not need spiritual stones and are treated with an extremely humble attitude.
No wonder Yaoguang City has a lot of money and the protective formation is activated all the time, because just a few hours of city entry fee is enough to maintain it.
The group of people came in like a fish and reported to the Demon Yutang first.
"The demon control orders of several people have been entered. The competition will not start until half a month. Please come down with me."
A deacon led Cheng Yuan and others into the back hall of Yuyao Hall.
"You guys arrived not too early. All the residences in the east are full, and the remaining residences in the west are still available for selection."
"You mean Yaoguang City also provides accommodation?" Cheng Yuan was quite surprised. They had rented their own accommodation before.
The deacon smiled: "You are all rookies who have passed the preliminary round, and the Demon Yutang will naturally not neglect you. Not only that, if you need food, clothing, housing and transportation during this period, the Demon Yutang will be prepared. Everyone will also be given spiritual stones every day. .”
With that said, the deacon had already brought them to their residence.
"It's a room for one person. You can enter with the Demon Control Order. Everyone, if you have something else to do, I won't disturb you." The deacon left very neatly.
There were colorful light pillars outside her residence. Cheng Yan took out the Demon Control Token, and the light led her towards her residence.
The demon control order came close to the door, and the restrictions on the door disappeared.
Cheng Yuan separated from everyone and entered his residence.
…
Longtan;
"What does it smell like? It's so fragrant."
As soon as he came in, Cheng Yan smelled the fragrance of flowers and subconsciously looked in the direction of the snow-capped mountains.
The two ice lotuses had been picked long ago, one was given to His Highness Qi to heal his wounds, and the other was kept in her demon-control bracelet by her.
Except for ice lotus, Cheng Yan didn't remember what flowers were grown in Longtan.
She smelled the fragrance and came to the spiritual field.
The spiritual field was divided into many small pieces by her, and different high-level spiritual plants were planted in each. In order to prevent their attributes from conflicting, she also specially separated them with protective formations.
In the corner of the spiritual field, a spiritual plant with scarlet fruits swayed.
Soul-catching fruit!
Cheng Yuan remembered that she had planted the soul-absorbing fruit given to her by the shark, but she didn't expect that it had already blossomed and bear fruit in just a short time.
This soul-stirring fruit was about the size of a fist, with bright red flesh. Cheng Yan swallowed with salivation.
Only after she had eaten the fruit of the soul-destroying fruit could she be obsessed with the taste.
Fortunately, there are no other living creatures except silver fish in Longtan, otherwise such a strong fragrance would definitely attract many monsters.
Cheng Yan looked towards the shore and discovered that there were many silver threads on the grass on the shore.
It seems that this soul-stirring fruit is also very attractive to silver fish.
Cheng Yan put it away, took the remaining soul-absorbing fruit from last time, cut off a piece, ate it and refined it.
When the refining was completed, he looked up and saw His Highness Qi sleeping peacefully on the big stone.
Cheng Yan has never had a chance to test the power of this soul-absorbing fruit, especially for high-level monks.
She approached the big stone and approached His Highness Qi.
Although His Highness Qi was asleep, he could sense someone approaching him. He just frowned slightly and did not open his eyes.
Cheng Yan looked at it quietly, marveling again at the miraculous craftsmanship of creations in this world. His Highness Qi is so beautiful, even his eyelashes are like small brushes. Is it possible that he has such good looks because he is the young master of the demon clan?
Cheng Yan looked intently and saw the shadow of the dragon on His Highness Qi's body.
The dragon shadow was lying in a cross-legged posture, with a relaxed expression. This way, she lost the coercion of the dragon in her perception and became more inexplicably well-behaved.
Cheng Yan reached out and gently touched the shadow of the dragon's head.
In an instant, His Highness Qi suddenly opened his eyes, and when their eyes met, His Highness Qi was slightly startled.
The breeze was blowing, and Cheng Yuan, who was so close at hand, was beautiful and charming, with a faint purple light in his eyes. It was this purple light that made His Highness Qi's eyes become confused.
"Come!"
Cheng Yuan's voice became softer, tempting His Highness Qi to stand up and slowly walk towards her.
Cheng Yuan stepped back slowly, leading Qi Qi down to the edge of the pool step by step.
"I didn't expect this soul-obsessing technique to be so powerful!" His Highness Qi, who actually didn't know what his level of cultivation was, found it difficult to resist.
I don’t know how successful this bewitchment can be?
Cheng Yun led His Highness Qi to stand with his back to the pond, and smiled apologetically at him: "Your Highness Qi, I have no one else to try. I will apologize to you when you wake up."
As he spoke, Cheng Yun pushed him gently and said, "Go down and cool down."
His Highness Qi fell backwards, his eyes still full of ignorance.
Just when Cheng Yuan was sighing at the amazing power of this soul-stirring technique, he could use it as a trump card when encountering powerful opponents in the future.
His Highness Qi suddenly stretched out his right hand and grabbed Cheng Yan's wrist.
The way he fell remained unchanged, but Cheng Yan's center of gravity was also unstable and he fell with him.
thump!
His Highness Qi entered the water, and his long ink hair bloomed like a huge black flower. Then Cheng Yan threw herself into his arms, and they both entered the water, causing a huge splash.
The light in the water dimmed for a while, but one could still see His Highness Qi's pair of surprisingly bright black eyes.
"Are you pretending?" Cheng Yan was surrounded by the cold water and shivered involuntarily.
"Is it fun?" His Highness Qi's voice was a little cold.
Cheng Yan was startled and asked: "Is it possible that I didn't succeed from beginning to end?"
This is impossible. The look in His Highness Qi's eyes just now was clearly a sign of being controlled by the spirit of mind.
There was a hint of coldness on His Highness Qi's fair face in the water. He reached out and clasped the back of Cheng Yan's neck, pulling her close.
Facing His Majesty Qi who was so close at hand, Cheng Yuan was flustered for no reason. Could he have become so angry that he wanted to kill someone and silence him?
"I just want to give it a try. If you don't try, you won't know. If you try, you will be shocked. Your Highness Qi, you are really amazing!"
"Oh? Your Highness, I'll give it a try too."
As soon as he finished speaking, the black pupils facing Cheng Yan immediately turned purple. Different from the purple light in Cheng Yan's eyes, His Highness Qi's eyes were almost replaced by deep purple.
Cheng Yan's eyes suddenly fell into a sea of purple.
