Looking at the city in front of you from afar, Wang Huai found that the city was surrounded by clouds, dragon energy, faith and mana emerged in circles, scattering around the city like a halo, making the city as sacred as a fairyland.

Although he couldn't see through the dragon energy, Wang Huai could still see the dragon energy emerging from it and turned into a five-clawed golden dragon, protecting the entire city.

In addition, Wang Huai can also see the virtual images of gods from all sides, the magic arrays built by monks, and the various Taoist realms of the True Lord.

Thanks to Wang Huai's cultivation gained various strengths, he can now clearly see that the city in front of him has integrated everything together and formed his own school.

The complex but ingenious Faceless Star Lord also looked at the city and sighed: "I didn't expect that a city would be built in such a place. The human race is really a creature with tenacious vitality."

After sighing, the faceless star king said gentle again: "Okay, come here to have a meal, don't be too tired."

Not only did he prepare food for Wang Huai, but the God of War also had his own offering, and even the three men and one woman he saw before at the city gate also had a meal.

The four people's eyes lit up when they saw the food. The girl who was under twelve years old had her eyes lit up, but she still endured her hunger and quietly waited for the command of the leader.

The captain touched his body for a long time and found nothing useful.

He even dragged his boots down and shook them. After he couldn't find anything, he had to pull out the short knife from his waist and send it to Wang Huai.

"Is this okay to pay for the meal?"

"Don't be too polite." Wang Huai waved his hand and smiled, "I like to listen to stories more, just tell me your stories."

The captain breathed a sigh of relief, sat down cross-legged and told his companions to start eating, while he rubbed his chin covered with stubble, thinking about where to start.

The captain is a middle-aged man in his forties. He looks like he has some martial arts skills, but most of the time he can get here is luck.

His left hand is missing, only three of his five fingers are left in his right hand, his left leg is fake, and his right eye is parasitized by unknown creatures. The pink eyeball is like an egg, and some kind of worm-like creature is suspended in the translucent liquid.

The scar-covered face looked a bit ferocious. Each scar was a medal he received after escaping from death and was part of his own glory.

Compared to the scarred captain, his companions looked much better.

His three companions were all children under the age of fifteen. Although there were some scars along the way, they were at least all their limbs.

While the three children were eating, the captain said, "My surname is Xue, just call me Lao Xue. I have been here for almost seven years. Most of my previous companions have died, while a small number have escaped."

Forty years old is considered middle-aged in reality, but here is already considered old.

The average life expectancy of this era is less than 30 years old, and forty years old is definitely an elderly person.

After introducing himself, Lao Xue rudely patted the head of the girl on his right hand and said with a smile: "I picked up all three little guys on the road. I don't know the origin. At first, they used them as reserve grain, but later they gradually became in love and stayed."

When Wang Huai heard about the reserved grain, he realized that the other party was not joking, but said such words very plainly.

It is this dullness that makes Wang Huai creepy.

When Old Xue was surprised at first when he saw Wang Huai's expression, he scratched his head and laughed embarrassedly.

"Look at me, I've been here for too long and I have forgotten a lot of common sense. I don't eat people outside."

After sighing for a while, Old Xue said to Wang Huai again: "It seems that you have just come to this place for not long, so I will introduce it to you. First of all, it is that city. That city continues the name of Tianshou Sect before, so it is called Tianshou City. Being able to come here means that you have a certain understanding of Tianshou Sect, so I won't say much."

Wang Huai nodded, indicating that he knew Tianshou Sect.

"The Tianshou Sect protects the covenant between humans and gods, so just as the heavenly way was broken, the Tianshou Sect launched a covenant and summoned a large number of gods here to find a way to save the world. However, because there were too many gods and monks gathered, the first wave of the broken impact of the heavenly way hit this place. Fortunately, there were already defense here. Although there were heavy casualties, I still found the right opportunity and fell into this twisted space."

At this time, Lao Xue's stomach started to scream inappropriately, which made Lao Xue scratch his head in embarrassment.

With Wang Huai's permission, he took out some vegetables from the iron pot, first took a big sip of the vegetable soup, and then ate the vegetables, which was amazing.

Inside the ruins, plants will also become strangely shaped due to twisted laws, but what you eat in the iron pot is very normal, which makes Lao Xue not understand why.

The water doesn't smell strange, and it won't scream or bite you in your mouth when you drink it. It feels like normal water.

Meat is also normal. It feels normal to not make a gloomy whisper like "kill you" in your mouth when you eat it.

It seems to be a very normal meal to the outside world, but it seems to be a rare delicacy to Lao Xue.

Eating in small mouthfuls, Lao Xue chewed as much food as possible so that his weak stomach and intestines could better absorb these precious nutrients.

After filling his stomach a little, he put down his chopsticks and continued: "I'm talking about common sense. You can figure it out after a while. So if you think these are not enough to pay for the meal, you can say it out in advance and I will find a way. But if you hold me accountable afterwards, I won't agree."

Lao Xue speaks very carefully and pays great attention to contractual relationships when speaking, which makes Wang Huai feel a little curious.

After pointing out this point, Lao Xue smiled and said, "Your observation is very good, and you can see it so quickly. Yes, here because of the impact of the way of heaven when it was broken and the efforts of various forces, it successfully put this place in a state of irreversible desolation. The biggest feature here is that efforts must be equivalent to harvest."

Pointing to the Tianshou City in the distance, Lao Xue said, "That city is the greatest embodiment of this law. Behind the city is the long road of Wanjie. At the end of the road is the center of the impact that year, the place with the strongest path of heaven and the place with the strongest power. Anything inside is priceless, but if you want to enter, you must pay for the trip."

"What kind of thing can be used as a travel expense?" Wang Huai asked.

"New magic, new strange things, and even gods... If the things provided are useful enough, you can even get the permanent residence qualification of Tianshou City. Don't underestimate this qualification. It is said that the whole world will be destroyed, and everything outside Tianshou City will be gone. Only Tianshou City can survive and go outside to re-establish the earth, fire, water and wind, and rebuild the world."

Wang Huai recalled the history afterwards and found that there was no such section.

In the world ten thousand years later, although the way of heaven was broken, everything was stable. All efforts to save the world were finally merged together, making the later world not very good, but it barely survived.

The villain became the leader, and the county town began to use dragon energy, and almost all the gods were burned, but some gods survived and eventually built the order of a new world.

If we look at this point, the role of Tian Shucheng is actually not as great as imagined.

According to Wang Huai's observation, most of the things needed in later generations have appeared, and the current Tianshou Sect is more like a redundant burden.

It occupies the most important place to produce results, but it has not produced any results.

The only thing that can be calculated is the application of dragon energy. However, Wang Huai told Buyu this method when he left Sixiang City. I believe that the other party can find a lot of things with the support of Pangumu.

Therefore, after thinking for a long time, Wang Huai discovered that Tianshoucheng seemed, perhaps, as if...

It's really useless.

It can even be said that he has some side effects.

After all, there is only so much content that can be used in later generations. Now Tianshoucheng has no useful output except attracting a large number of key talents to come here and consuming their intelligence out of thin air.

To some extent, this place is even more hateful than bugs.

After all, insects are still a natural disaster, and a guy like Tianshoucheng who, under the banner of great light, constantly sucks blood from around and stands on the moral high ground is really hateful.

Before traveling through time, there seemed to be a place similar to this place, which seemed to be called "Eagle or Sauce".

What made Wang Huai even more furious is that this Tianshoucheng has a close connection with him, which gives him a son who has grown up. He can obviously be a superhero to save the world, but he just runs to be a young and dandy feeling.

Seeing Wang Huai's complex expression, Lao Xue thought Wang Huai was thinking about how to get in, so he patted Wang Huai and said, "I know you are too anxious, but don't be too anxious. I could tell at a glance that you are not a mortal, and the two companions around you are also among the people."

The God of Insect has learned new magic skills and now looks like an ordinary man.

The Faceless Star Lord has no face, but having no face here is not a disadvantage. There are more people than him who are fierce and evil.

They restrained their divine power and looked no different from ordinary people. However, the divine nature they released occasionally still made people around them feel that these two people were extraordinary.

After carefully examining the two gods, Lao Xue said affirmatively: "You will know at a glance that your companion is destined to be a god. You might as well sell yourself to be a temple blessing for two years, and you should be able to exchange the travel expenses inside."

"Is there a faster way?" Wang Huai asked.

"Yes, if you feel smart enough, you can settle down in the village's residence and think with the sages inside, and then distribute the results according to the contributions after you have achieved them."

"It's still a bit slow, we want something faster."

"Yes. You just came in. You can find the nobles in the city while your body is still tight and your appearance is outstanding... Forget it, I won't say it anymore, I feel that you will die if you say it."

Faceless Star Lord lowered his fist and said indifferently: "Don't think of attacking my kitten."

The insect god looked at the Faceless Star Lord with envy and decided to ask Wang Huai quietly later to see if the other party was interested in being his own temple blessing.

Seeing that Wang Huai was carrying multiple marks, I think he would not refuse him.

Wang Huai seized the keywords in Lao Xue's words and asked quickly: "There are also noble officials in Tianshou City?"

"yes."

"Then what price did they pay to gain the power to become noble officials?"

Lao Xue's face froze, she thought for a long time before finally shook her head and said, "It seems... I don't know..."

"What about their children? Can those children live in the city as soon as they are born and then qualify as nobles? Then what price did they pay?"

"That... I don't know either. Maybe the child's parents have given it in advance."

"Interestingly, if parents give it in advance, it means that each of them has created at least one contribution. If, I mean, they did not create value, but used some means to convert your past value into your own wealth."

Wang Huai did not expect Lao Xue to answer his own question. After all, this question involves exploitation and being exploited, which is a question that will last for no end to discuss how long it takes.

Looking at Tianshou City with the city gate closed not far away, Wang Huai felt that he had seen a flesh and blood factory.

However, what this factory exploits is not physical strength, but mental strength.

Calling the Faceless Star Lord, Wang Huai asked, "Star Lord, I have a problem..."

"cost."

Too lazy to talk nonsense to the other party, Wang Huai pulled off his hair, cut it off from the middle, and threw it to the Faceless Star Lord.

"Okay, then I will answer me directly if I have any questions. Don't be like this, do you hear that?"

"It's a neat and tidy! Wang Huai, let's be my temple blessing for the rest of my life."

On the forehead of the Faceless Star Lord, Wang Huai pointed to the center of Tianshou City and asked, "What's there?"

"I can't tell you too much. I can only answer your question by whether or not." The Faceless Star Lord said in embarrassment, "There are some very important laws and constraints involved, so please forgive me."

"Is it true or not? That's enough. So is there a way of heaven in Tianshou City?"

"yes."
