Chapter 197 Ghost City(1/2)
This time, Wang Hong used it to deal with the enemy after he had completely mastered it.
Back at the cultivation base of Yuebei, Wang Hong sat cross-legged in the room, quickly recovering his magic power while pondering the insights that had just come to light.
Yes, at the moment when the love of the city was completely cut off, Wang Hong suddenly realized something.
If all the extra enhancements are aside, he himself is actually just a third-level peak monk.
With his cultivation level, he forced himself to perform the fifth-level love of the city, which means that his foundation was strong enough, otherwise he would have exhausted his blood and died long ago.
Although Wang Hong's qualifications in martial arts are far inferior to his understanding in the immortal path.
But when you perform a love of love in battle, it is like a master who holds his hand and draws a national treasure-level painting bit by bit.
As long as you are not a fool, you will definitely make some progress.
What's more, Wang Hong's own swordsmanship has reached a bottleneck. After this flash of inspiration, it finally led to a qualitative change, allowing him to fully understand his sword intent!
"My knife intention is really interesting. Is it a combination of the law of devouring and the law of spiritual?"
"A single sword can forcefully devour ghost-like enemies, or devour the outer soul defense of normal monks."
"But the effect of this sword intent on living people is not so obvious. If you want to swallow up all the martial souls of the fourth-level peak martial artist, you will probably have to at least five to ten swords."
"If I had the chance to cut so many swords from the opponent, I would have cut him to death long ago. How could I have had such trouble?"
"This knife intention is really useless!"
Wang Hong felt it carefully and couldn't help but sigh softly.
His sword intent is somewhat similar to some skills in the game.
But the real world is not a game, it is impossible for you to cut me with one knife, and I will cut you with another knife, whoever clears the bloodline will lose.
Not to mention the outcome of one sword, but after three or five swords, the battle will basically end, so Wang Hong is really disgusted with the intention of this sword.
"Forget it, it's better than having it. Usually, it's better to simulate other people's sword intent. When it comes to the right time, use this 'soul-eating' sword intent."
Wang Hong named his sword intention Soul-Devouring, and then he no longer struggled with this issue.
After his mana was restored, he did not stay at the Earth Star for a long time. When the portal cooled down, Wang Hong returned to outside Dongyang Valley again.
Because the time in the two realms is relatively still, to outsiders, Wang Hong never left at all.
So when he swept away the items scattered on the ground, he walked to the entrance of Dongyang Valley with a light wind and clouds.
Whether it was Gu Hao in the valley or Xianghe who had just arrived, the look of looking at Wang Hong was both respectful and awe.
Some of the core disciples of the peak sects in Tongtianzhou were able to use the fifth-level skills in advance, but this effortless look really surprised the two old guys.
With their nearly a thousand years of experience and vision, it can naturally be seen that Wang Hong is not a strong support, but a real calm and complete state.
"Brother Gu Hao, this is the lord of the royal city in Luxi City and the overlord of the southern region of Dongwuzhou. His strength is far superior to us at a young age..."
After a little calmer, Xianghe immediately helped Wang Hong to praise him.
When Gu Hao saw Xianghe, the old acquaintance, opened the defensive formation and welcomed them in.
Having seen the love of the city just now, he knew very well that his formation could not stop the young strong man outside.
In this case, Xianghe was accompanied by his acquaintance. Gu Hao immediately threw the arrogance of the alchemist aside and took the two into the valley with a smile.
When they arrived at the living room, the three of them had a tea and chatted for a while. Xianghe told them about their purpose in Dongyang Valley.
After hearing this, Gu Hao thought for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Okay, although Dongwuzhou and Tongtianzhou are almost the same, they have fallen into a great disaster. But on Dongwuzhou, we at least have the power to protect ourselves, and here..."
Speaking of this, Gu Hao couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
Compared with the true man Xianghe, Gu Hao has a higher status among casual cultivators and has a much wider range of people. Long before the catastrophe broke out, someone had already persuaded him to leave Tongtianzhou.
At that time, his old friend was about to go to Xiyuanzhou, so he naturally wanted to recruit Gu Hao, the master of alchemy, to join in with a promising overlord.
But Gu Hao felt that even if the catastrophe was about to come, he would not be affected by the fish in the pond, so why bother to serve others?
But as a result, people sat at home, and disaster came from the sky. The big bandits like Lianhuanzhai actually traveled thousands of miles to Dongyang Valley to rob.
If Wang Hong had not come in time this time, he would have to ask for help from the Li clan of Longxi or the Zhao clan of Tianshui.
Therefore, Gu Hao now understands the concept of great disaster, and this is not something you can do if you want to hide.
The foundation of this royal city lord is located in Tobuzhou, and his combat effectiveness is extremely strong. He should have security after joining.
I believe there should be no other high-level alchemist under my command, so joining this Xicheng will probably not become an alchemist.
So, Gu Hao pretended to hesitate for a moment and agreed to Xianghe's invitation.
Finally, Wang Hong was invited to the alchemy master, and immediately made a promise:
"Master Gu, I know that your life span is not much. As long as you work hard in Luxicheng, I will apply for a treasure for longevity from my family. It can help you increase your life span by at least three hundred years!"
Seeing the true Xianghe next to him with envy, Wang Hong smiled and said:
"I can apply for a lot of things that extend my life, and I don't have this need. As long as the real person helps me with all my strength, I will have you in thirty years!"
After receiving Wang Hong's promise, Xianghe Zhenren was overjoyed. He immediately stood up and bowed respectfully, and said firmly:
"I will do my best to assist the city lord in the future. If I disobey this, I will die of disaster!"
The fourth-level monk has initially involved the laws. If he solemnly swore like the true man Xianghe, he will definitely touch on some inexplicable existences. Once he violated his oath, he will almost have no way to survive.
Of course, Xianghe is not an old man. His life span is only sixty or seventy years left, and Wang Hong is his only hope for prolonging his life.
Whether it is breaking through the realm through luck or using things that prolong life to further increase life span, he has been tied to the chariot of Luxicheng.
Even if you add a chain to yourself, it is actually just that, it is a matter of greater benefits than disadvantages.
Sure enough, Wang Hong immediately helped Xianghe real man up. Although he just patted his shoulder and said nothing, the trust in his eyes increased significantly.
"The real person will send Master Gu to Luxicheng first. I have to find a market to trade some things, so I won't go back with you. If there is any danger on the way, just send me a message." Wang Hong said with a smile.
Although it is more convenient to pick up and drop off at the Dark Gate, Xianghe has reminded him before that Wang Hong will naturally no longer show off the difference between the fifth-level pseudo-magic power and the sixth-level small-magic power.
Real person Xianghe was slightly stunned, then nodded and reminded:
"The City Lord is also careful. At this time, markets in various places may not be as obedient as before."
"The market of major forces has a complete range of places, but once they arouse their greed, it will be difficult to leave."
"The small place cannot threaten the city lord, but most of the people who trade inside are low-level cultivators..."
Wang Hong nodded and was about to speak, Gu Hao suddenly interrupted:
"So, the city lord can take my identity token and go to the market in Lintao City, where the Li family in Longxi is located."
"There will be a large ghost market on the night of the first day of the month."
"All people entering the ghost market will have masks and hide their bodies, and mental power scanning is strictly prohibited. There has been no accidents in hundreds of years."
As long as there are too many people in any place, a ghost market will naturally form in the dark. Including Luxi City, which has just been built for a few years, there is a small ghost market.
Where monks like Tongtianzhou gather, the demand for ghost markets even exceeds that of the open markets.
Every day, there are a large number of treasures stained with blood that need to be dealt with in secret, so even the top forces are actively opening ghost markets on their own territory so that this benefit will not be out of the hands of others.
"My Lord, the reputation of the Li family in Longxi is quite good. The ghost market over there is indeed quite safe. As long as you don't take out too exaggerated treasures, there should be no problems."
Xianghe nodded and said, he rarely went to the ghost market for a walk, but he didn't remember it at once. At this moment, he was reminded by Gu Hao and immediately agreed.
Wang Hong took the identity token and changed his figure slightly, looking seven-point like Gu Hao. Then he was about to leave Dongyang Valley. Before leaving, he reminded him:
"When the master arrives at Luxi City to stabilize, I need your help to refine a Four Spirits Real Pill. The materials have been collected. The master will also prepare it during this period."
After saying that, Wang Hong nodded and flew northwest, but Gu Hao was stunned at this moment, and asked incredible moment:
"The City Lord hasn't condensed the Nascent Soul yet?"
Shohe was also a little shocked, but he definitely couldn't show it at this moment, so he smiled and said:
"Brother Gu Hao was fussed. The city lord's foundation is rare in the world. Even the chief disciple of Taixu Temple and the Demon Sect may not be able to compete with him. As long as we work hard, we will have a good future in the future."
Neither of them are young people who are just starting out of the world. Naturally, they understand that realm does not represent strength, nor does it represent combat power.
Some people with deep feet are commonplace to kill enemies across levels, and they use realm cultivation to measure the other party, which is no different from seeking death.
But the third-level peak monks used their fifth-level skills without blushing and heartbeat, which was really beyond their cognitive scope.
Wang Hong didn't know how much shock his casual words had brought to the two old guys. I guess he would laugh it off even if he knew it.
Lintao City is not too far from Dongyang Valley. At noon the next day, Wang Hong flew to his destination.
As a master of alchemy, Gu Hao's identity token is quite useful. Wang Hong showed it at the entrance of the market and then a special service staff was welcomed by him and took him into the internal trading venue.
This time he claimed to be a junior of Gu Hao's clan, showing the peak of his martial soul, and there is no need to deliberately disguise it.
The person who received Wang Hong was named Li Ji, who was a monk from the Li family in Longxi. He had a mid-stage cultivation in the foundation building period and was quite organized in his reception.
Seeing that Wang Hong was here for the first time, Li Ji talked endlessly along the way and introduced the situation in the market in detail.
"Senior Gu came to the market this time, and I wonder if he wanted to sell or buy things?"
When the two of them arrived at a resting place, Li Ji asked straight to the point.
"The ghost market will be open the night after tomorrow, right?"
To be continued...
