five days later

A three-hundred-meter-long giant boat with a substantial cyan aura shining all over its body slowly penetrated the thick clouds and flew towards the city on the ground.

Feeling the changes in the flying boat, everyone walked out of the cabin one after another, stood on the deck and looked down.

On the ground are endless spiritual fields and verdant spiritual valleys, bending down heavily and swaying in the breeze.

There are monks wearing monastic robes standing next to the rice fields, using magic formulas with their hands to perform the Spiritual Rain Technique, which condenses dark clouds in the sky and drops of rain and dew.

There are spiritual farmers wearing short sleeves and rolled up trousers, bending down in the fields to weed and remove insects.

The giant boat continued to fly forward, and a huge crater with a depression in the center appeared in everyone's sight.

Surrounding the crater are densely packed attics, like termite nests, covering the entire mountain. Bustling people are constantly shuttling among them, like busy ants.

"Smoke! There is smoke!"

Xiao Ling'er pointed at the center of the crater and shouted in a sweet voice.

Xu Mu looked over and found that in the center of the crater, white mist was rising continuously, and the entire mountain was like a chimney.

"Ms. sir, what's going on?" Ye Yingying asked curiously.

Everyone else also looked at Xu Mu. They were all coming to Liyang Sect for the first time and were not sure about the situation here.

In fact, it was Xu Mu's first time here, but he had found out a lot of information during this period, and he just happened to know what was going on.

"That should be the smoke caused by the eruption of the ground fire!"

According to the information he obtained, the Liyang Sect's sect is built on an active volcano, relying on formations to extract the power of earth fire for its own use. The reason why Liyang Sect is good at refining weapons is that its continuous earth fire skill is indispensable.

If nothing else happens, the crater in front of you should be the active volcano where the Liyang Sect is located.

The city under the mountain was their destination.

Li Yangcheng.

Xu Mu talked to a few people about the news he had obtained, and the flying boat slowly landed on the ground.

Several people followed the flow of people and got off the flying boat and entered the city.

Compared with the other cities we have stayed in before, Liyang City is much more prosperous.

The streets are wide enough for six carriages to travel along.

Each of the shops on the street is three or four stories high, with beautifully carved beams and painted tiles.

Talisman shops, magic weapon shops, elixir shops, spirit beast shops, robe shops, and all kinds of shops are everywhere.

In the city, almost every family has extremely rare third-level magical instruments. Third-level elixirs and third-level talismans are also very common.

Most of the pedestrians on the street are wearing robes, surrounded by auras, and have an extraordinary temperament.

In Xu Mu's perception, monks in the late stages of Qi training are not only common, but they are not uncommon either, and they can be encountered from time to time.

However, the foundation building stage is still rare, and they went all the way without seeing one.

Although Liyang City is prosperous, it is obviously still dominated by Qi training period.

It is too difficult to advance in the foundation building stage!

It would be nice if one of the one hundred Qi practitioners could advance to the later stage.

However, Xu Mu could feel that although they were both in the Qi training period, the Qi training period in Liyang City was obviously thicker and the combat effectiveness was not comparable. However, if they advanced to foundation building, the monks in Liyang City had an obvious advantage.

This is also very normal!

Because only casual cultivators with no hope of advancement would think of going to the city to take risks and seek opportunities.

The same was true for the original owner back then.

The original owner was not born in Baihefang City, but was born near Qinghe City. Because his cultivation progress was too slow, he followed the Qinghe Sword Sect's land reclamation team to Baihefang City.

It's just that once I go, I will never go back for half my life.

He once stayed in Qinghe City. Although Qinghe City was prosperous, it was still several times worse than Liyang City.

According to the information he collected, Liyang Sect has three Jindan ancestors, one of whom is in the late stage of Jindan, and his strength can be said to far exceed that of Qinghe Sword Sect.

With such a strong strength, it would be difficult for Liyang City not to prosper.

I just don’t know how prosperous the city where Yuanying Sect is located must be!

Xu Mu suddenly felt an urge to see it in his life.

A few people entered the Grand View Garden, wandered around the city for a while, and then found an inn to stay first.

After settling in several people, the next day, Xu Mu went alone to Yahang, which was responsible for renting the house.

"I wonder what kind of house this fellow Taoist wants to rent? Is it a single room, a detached house, or an independent cave?"

The person in charge of reception asked with a smile on his face.

"Can you still rent a cave here?"

Xu Mu was quite shocked.

The so-called cave mansion is actually a mansion built on spiritual veins.

Because the spiritual veins are usually in the mountains, the mansions are usually made of holes, so they are habitually called cave mansions.

"Of course you can rent it! As long as you can afford the spirit stone, we can help you get it even if it's a paradise in the cave!" Ya Ren said with a smile.

"..."

Xu Mu naturally didn't believe this.

Dongtian Mansion is an independent secret realm, extremely precious and often the foundation of a sect.

Not to mention the Liyang Sect, even the Tianhe Sect may not have one.

The tooth man in front of me was obviously bragging.

Xu Mu didn't bother to expose him.

"I want to rent an independent courtyard!"

He now has a huge sum of thirty thousand spiritual stones in his hands. Although Liyang City is prosperous, it is not a problem to rent a small courtyard.

"Guest, please come with me!"

When he heard that Xu Mu wanted to rent a yard, Yaren's eyes immediately lit up.

He took Xu Mu into the living room of the inner hall, poured tea, and took out a map.

"Guests, please see, there are vacant small courtyards in these areas! For example, this location near the South Gate, close to Willow Street is the busiest, and only costs 40 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones per month, and there is also this location in Xiaotianshui Lane.

Near the foot of the mountain, there is a spiritual stream left from the mountain, and the spiritual energy is much richer than elsewhere. It only costs 80 low-grade spiritual stones every month..."

Yaren pointed at the map and introduced them to Xu Mu one by one while spitting.

"Is there anything better?" Xu Mu frowned.

The other party said it nicely, but in fact, most of these positions are still on the outermost edge, and even the city defense formation cannot cover them.

"Yes, of course!"

Seeing that Xu Mu was not satisfied, Yaren was even happier, so he hurriedly drew a few more positions.

"These locations can't be better. Like the courtyard in Lihua Lane, it is directly connected to the Liyang Sect's spiritual vein. Although it is the smallest branch, the spiritual energy is twice as rich as the outer city! And this

One place is better, nearby is the Spiritual Planting Garden, not only is there enough spiritual energy, but you can also plant it yourself..."

Ya Ren was very happy when he said this, but Xu Mu was a little unsure because the location was so good.

"You'd better talk about the rent first!"

"Of course! For example, this place in Lihua Lane only costs 500 low-grade spiritual stones per month, and the one on Gongyue Street costs 800 low-grade spiritual stones per month... The most expensive place only costs 1,700 low-grade spiritual stones per month!

"

"..."

Nothing more?

Why don't you go and grab it?

Xu Mu originally thought that with thirty thousand spiritual stones, he should be considered a rich man, but when he compared it now, he seemed to be just that.

Under the leadership of Ya Ren, Xu Mu chose a courtyard in Qinghuai Lane after looking at several places.

Six hundred low-grade spiritual stones per month, the spiritual energy content is 50% higher than that of the outside world, and there are eleven houses with a pool and a garden.

But what Xu Mu likes more is its tranquility.

The surrounding houses are all independent, and the nearest one is only three feet away.

There is no need to worry about safety.

There is a defensive formation in the yard, and there are patrols patrolling the area every day. Because of its proximity to the Liyang Sect Medicine Field, both the number of patrols and the strength of the patrols are far higher than other places.

The rent in Liyang City is already expensive, but the location of Xu Muyuan is good and the place is large. Six hundred low-grade spiritual stones are still understandable.

After signing the house deed and paying half a year's rent, the place temporarily belonged to him.
