From his perspective, this elixir bottle must be from the ancient times of Kyushu, so the content inside is most likely an ancient elixir, and its value is not low.

It's a pity that he didn't go on stage to compete. Such a good elixir wouldn't be available to him.

Thinking of this, Taoist Duobao sipped the spiritual tea in a depressed manner. The texture of this spiritual tea was also very good, just like taking spiritual liquid. It could at least make up for the depression in his heart.

"There is no need to give in. Fellow Daoist Cheng has been wronged in the City of Shadows. As the Lord of the City of Shadows, I failed to fulfill my duties. I just want to make some compensation to express my sincerity."

Chen Su smiled and waved his hand.

"It's just that when it comes to the bloody battle, I do feel unwilling and helpless."

Speaking of this, Chen Su sighed again and smiled bitterly.

"About the relationship between our Shadow Palace and Bloody Challenge, you two must have heard something about it."

"I heard my lady talk about it."

Qin Cheng nodded slightly.

"Well, back then, I, Chen Su, was quite ambitious and wanted to open up an ideal city of monks outside the Nine Provinces. But my own power was too small, so I had to borrow the power of a big force, and now I see them doing whatever they want.

, but I can’t stop it, I feel really guilty.”

Chen Su took a sip of the spirit tea and changed the subject. He pointed at the dotted Shadow City buildings not far away from the three of them, outside the Yuche fence.

"I have spent thousands of years of hard work building such an out-of-this-world city. What do you two think of this place?"

"To be able to build such a huge dungeon in a chaotic land, the palace master must have put in a lot of effort." Taoist Duobao praised.

"It's true. The sweat and blood I spent in building this Shadow City are beyond calculation. You two can also come and take a look. From my overlook, you can see the entire Shadow City."

With that said, he stood up and looked at the huge city outside the palace window.

Qin Cheng and Taoist Duobao also came over.

The Shadow Palace is located on a mountain like this, and the three of them are at the top of this mountain.

Standing at the fence, you can have a panoramic view of the bloody ring, auction house, market and other buildings below.

Staring at the countless buildings, Chen Su's eyes became a little dark.

"I have something to say, and I don't know who to talk to. The two of them are monks from outside the area and will be leaving soon. If I think about it carefully, it would be most appropriate to talk to these two of my complaints."

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

"I want to tell you two something from my heart today. You won't find me verbose, right?" Chen Su said with a smile.

"Master, please speak." Qin Cheng said.

Of course he knew that Chen Su would not reveal his inner feelings without reason, and these words should be related to his purpose of finding the two of them.

"You two are Taoist friends from outside the territory. Do you know why I spent thousands of years, a lot of spiritual stones and energy, and even life and death, to build such a shadow city?"

"You two fellow Taoists don't need to answer, I can guess what you are thinking." Chen Su said with a smile.

"It's just that I feel that I have greater ambitions to enjoy the desire to control all spirits, or to seize a large amount of cultivation resources."

"But actually, it's neither."

"This involves an idea and a dream of mine."

Chen Su shook his head and looked at Qin Cheng and Duobao.

"Since you two are from outside the territory, let's start by talking about the two worlds. I feel that there should be a big difference between Kyushu Continent and the continent where you are."

"What do you think, the master of the palace, is the difference between the two worlds?"

Qin Cheng did not answer, but asked instead.

"Haha, although I have never been to the upper world, I have heard about some things."

"The Upper Realm Continent is bigger than Kyushu, and even cannot be compared together. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth there is more intense, there are many strong people, and there are many outstanding people."

Mentioning the Upper Realm, Chen Su's eyes flashed with yearning.

"The biggest difference, I think, lies in the rules. The Upper Realm Continent is the same as the world before the Kyushu Rebellion. Although there are humans and monsters, there are no behemoths like the Star Palace, so whether it is a fight between the same race

, or a war between humans and monsters, everything is based on strength, natural selection, and survival of the fittest."

"In my opinion, this is what the world of cultivation should be like. Monks are encouraged to fight, rob, and even practice with anger and unwillingness. Only in this environment can we cultivate better strong men."

"And our Jiuzhou is the same. Every state, and even every city, has a Star Palace that is in charge. Fighting is not allowed in the city. Regardless of conflicts between individuals or sect forces, the Star Palace will also come forward to mediate."

"The final result is that everyone is in harmony and has no ambition to make progress, causing the entire cultivation world to be lifeless and without any vitality."

Speaking of this, Chen Su took a deep breath, with a look of indignation on his face.

"That Tianjiao Lord saved us human monks back then, but the Star Palace he built seemed to have brought about ten thousand years of peace, but it completely buried the future of the monks in the entire world!"

"Everywhere in Kyushu is keeping to itself, and the five demon kings are in different places. Everyone seems to be doing well, but the cultivation world is lifeless. The speed of monks' improvement is getting slower and slower, and there are fewer and fewer geniuses. Why?"

"That is because of the hatred and dissatisfaction created by fighting and fighting, which is the motivation for monks to climb the cultivation level. Now that everyone is in harmony and brothers and sisters respect each other, who is willing to work hard and climb to the peak of cultivation!"

"And peace? Without strength, how can there be true peace?" Chen Su said with a disdainful smile.

"So, I founded the Shadow Palace and subsequently built the Shadow City not to satisfy my selfish desires, but to allow me to enjoy power and wealth, but to use my meager power to change the entire Kyushu."

As Chen Su raised his arms, Uncle Li's eyes lit up with emotion, full of admiration.

"The palace master is right to say so."

Taoist Duobao was stunned for a moment, stroking his chin and thinking.

"Kyushu Continent is very peaceful, just like the water in a pond. There are no waves. Although it is peaceful, it cannot breed ferocious swimming fish."

"My great wish is to create a territory where there are fights and battles, so that the monks there can put their energy back into cultivation, so that our Jiuzhou Continent can rise again!" Chen Su said with a solemn expression.

"But if there are wars everywhere and everyone's life is precarious, the monks will not have the energy to concentrate on cultivation, right?" Qin Cheng said.

Chen Su was stunned for a moment, seemingly surprised by Qin Cheng's calmness at this time, but he calmed down later.

"Fellow Daoist Cheng is right, so we have to control this scale. It can't be too gentle, nor too intense. This is also my goal in establishing Shadow City."

"Moreover, although my cultivation level is slightly higher, in the Kyushu Continent, my strength has not broken through to the Mahayana realm, and I cannot ascend to the upper realm. Therefore, my knowledge is limited, and what I say may be a bit naive. Don't mind me," Chen Su said.
