Taotie City in the vast northern border.
Birds, beasts, auspicious clouds and auspicious colors in the sky and on earth all converged towards that ancient city, making it glow with infinite vitality. The surrounding barren mountains made its prosperity even more like a miracle.
Two of the inconspicuous sword lights landed outside the city gate and came to the back of the queue to wait in line to enter the city.
Both of them are young men. The former one is Chu Liang, handsome and smiling; the latter one is Wen Yulong, who is fair-skinned and gentle.
"It's so prosperous." Chu Liang sighed sincerely as he looked at the scene in Taotie City.
"Yes, all the treasures from all over the world are gathered here." Wen Yulong nodded, "Shu Mountain is just too far away from here, otherwise it would be fun to visit often."
"Whenever we have our own Taotie City, we won't have to visit other people's houses anymore," Chu Liang said.
"It's still difficult. Shushan is a serious immortal sect after all." Wen Yulong thought, "No matter how strong we are, the target is Penglai Shangzong and we can't turn it into a gluttonous city."
Chu Liang smiled and turned around to enter the city.
The two of them went straight to a shop with a plaque of "Baodan Hall" hanging on it. Wen Yulong helped contact this place, one of the largest pill shops in Taotie City.
Chu Liang came with Wen Yulong on this trip because he knew Taotie City better. On weekdays, weapon refining requires various materials, so he often comes here to purchase.
The reason why I didn't take anyone else with me was because everyone else, including Golden Retriever, was working in the orchards that were in full swing. It could be said that there were no idlers in Yinjian Peak right now... No bite of food was wasted.
After entering the main gate of Baodan Hall, you don't even enter the main hall, but an empty hall with a dragon column in the center. The column revolves around the ladders that lead to the rooms on each floor, leading directly to the building above that seems to have at least a dozen floors. top. But when you look at it from the outside, it's just a two-story attic, and it really has something going on inside.
In fact, this is also a little trick played by many shops in Taotie City, because Taotie City officially does not allow too tall buildings in the city, so that it is easier to manage. Otherwise, if there are tall buildings everywhere and a group of practitioners walk up and down, city management will be much more complicated. .
As a result, some shops that pursue grandeur will use Qiankun magic to recreate a space inside.
It is indeed necessary to make the store more stylish. Many times an item is not worth the price, but because it is sold here, people who don't know much about it will think it is worth the price.
A waiter came to greet him and Wen Yulong said: "I made an appointment with Elder Sun in advance."
"You are a young knight from the Shushan sect? Please come this way." The waiter immediately bowed and led the way, and the three of them followed the ladder up to a room on the fourth floor.
This is a spacious quiet room filled with smoke. An elder with black hair and long beard is sitting cross-legged in the middle, making tea. Seeing the two of them coming, he raised his hands and said, "You two young heroes, please sit down."
"Elder Sun." Wen Yulong and Chu Liang also sat down.
"Is this the fellow disciple who Wen Shaoxia said wanted to buy the elixir?" Elder Sun asked with a smile.
"Exactly." Wen Yulong said: "This is my senior brother from Yinjian Peak in Shushan Mountain. His name is Chu Liang."
"Chu Liang?" Elder Sun suddenly raised his eyes.
The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.
A month ago, when Chu Liang's name was mentioned, the other party would probably just nod his head and not pay much attention to it.
But now the Battle of Shushan has just passed, and the name of Chu Liang has just resounded throughout the world.
Elder Sun asked: "But Chu Liang and Chu Shaoxia, the genius of Shushan, who killed Yue Zhu with one sword and wounded Ksitigarbha with the other sword in the battle with Pluto Sect?"
His series of titles made Chu Liang smile sheepishly, "I don't dare to be a genius. I'm just an ordinary Shushan disciple."
"Oh, Young Master Chu can come to visit me, it really makes my Treasure Pill Hall flourish." Elder Sun's whole state was obviously much more polite, "I wonder what kind of pills Young Master Chu needs? Our Treasure Pill Hall has a full range of varieties. , even if I don’t have it, I can still look around for you.”
Chu Liang replied: "I want to buy the God Gathering Pill."
"Ah..." Elder Sun hesitated for a moment. Although there was still a smile on his face, his forward leaning body was somewhat withdrawn.
I thought that Chu Liang, the new talent, could buy some expensive elixirs, but it turned out to be God-Gathering elixirs.
Elder Sun couldn't help complaining about Wen Yulong. He had already said that he wanted to buy the God-Gathering Pill. Why did you go to so much trouble to contact me in advance? I just went to the guy downstairs and bought it.
Seeing his expression, Chu Liang probably knew what the other party was thinking, so he quickly added: "Although I am buying the God-Gathering Pill, I bought it in large quantities."
"Haha, it seems that Young Master Chu is practicing very diligently." Elder Sun said.
Naturally, he has no hope in his heart. No matter how great a genius you are, you are still in the fourth realm. One or two pills a day is enough for a normal person. Even if you practice the Shen Gathering Pill throughout the whole process, how many pills can you use?
For an elder of his level, it is not worth taking action.
"I just don't know if I can get some discounts if I buy more?" Chu Liang asked again.
"Young Master Chu..." Elder Sun said with a smile: "The elixirs in our Baodan Hall are always of high quality and low price, without any discounts. A few God-Gathering Pills are nothing, how many do you want? We We can send each other directly, just to make friends."
He has other plans now. What's the point of giving you a discount on a few God-Gathering Pills? How much money can you make from three two-sword coins?
It's better to just give it away for free and make good friends with this new talent. There will inevitably be big orders in the future.
Chu Liang's eyes lit up: "Can you really give it away for free? I want a lot."
"How much can Young Master Chu want?" Elder Sun smiled and took a sip of tea, not believing how much he could use.
Just listen to Chu Liang blurt out: "One hundred and fifty thousand."
Elder Sun: "Pfft——"
…
In the Dharma Protector Hall.
Jiang Yuebai dusted off the rows of tall bookshelves and finally found the book he wanted to read.
It was one of a pile of jade books that had long been covered with dust. It recorded the outstanding disciples of the Shushan Summit in the past. They usually wrote down the names of the champions of the entertainment competition and the names of the semi-finalists of the main competition.
In the latest volume, Jiang Yuebai's own name is recorded at the front, and the ink is still wet.
After flipping through it for a while, she finally found a volume from five hundred years ago.
Last time he found the diary that recorded the secrets of the Demon Suppression Tower in the hut under the sea of clouds. After reading it, Chu Liang felt that it was not something he should care about, so he forgot about it.
But Jiang Yuebai couldn't be so free and easy. There seemed to be a little claw in her heart that she couldn't hold back, making her always want to explore the truth of the incident that year.
Even though her elders had warned her and Chu Liang that they didn't need to explore the matter too much and someone would handle it, she still didn't want to let go of anything related to Shenxu Temple.
Is the disappearance of the Demon Suppressing Tower really related to that disciple? Then did he really seek the method from Shenxu Temple? If that's the case...then where did he find Shenxu Temple?
She decided to take action.
The diary did not mention the name of the recorder, but it was not too difficult to find because he mentioned that he was second in that Shushan Summit.
This is recorded in the Shushan classics, especially the battle five hundred years ago, which was Master Wuqi's battle to become famous.
Soon, she turned to the page and saw the name behind Lu Wuqi that had made her curious for a long time.
"Yan Renjie."
