The rush to sign up finally faded after a while.
The demon masters in the city are wandering around the city, visiting sandcastles and the black market to purchase what they need for training.
Some well-informed demon masters knew about the city where the West Pole was being tested for the first time, and formed teams one after another to set off.
Naturally, Cheng Yan also found out the news and made an agreement with Ji Qiuyu to leave the city in three days.
And these three days are also the deadline for Yanchu.
The ancient master summoned all the demon masters from the sect who were participating in the demon master competition to one place.
"Please remember that walking out of this city represents the Xianqi Sect. I hope that you can achieve good rankings and have the opportunity to fight for the West Pole in the future. But I also hope that you will get out and come back.
.
There are many opportunities in the Demon Control Competition, but you only have one life, so don't act on your own initiative.
Remember this sentence, keep the green hills without worrying about having no firewood..."
After the ancient leader finished his hour-long lecture on the sect, the Western elders finally came to the rescue.
"The sect has prepared many things for you, including elixirs, spiritual weapons, and talisman formations. According to the usual practice, the first test will be in the Suzaku City in the center of the West Pole. You can choose to go with Xianqi Demon Master
, you can also go there by yourself.
The West is dangerous. Remember that you are going to participate in the Demon Control Competition. Don’t stir up trouble or cause trouble. Are you all clear?"
"It's clear!" The disciples responded in unison.
The elder growled loudly: "Speak louder, haven't you eaten yet? Don't be afraid of trouble if you go out and don't cause trouble. If anyone dares to look down on us who came out of Xianqimen, I'll kill them!"
"Kill them!" the disciples shouted with enthusiasm.
"Hey! What I just said was in vain." Elder Xiang hurriedly pulled Elder Chang down.
……
Cheng Yan returned to his residence and began to pack his things.
She and Ji Qiuyu have no plans to travel with the brigade. There are many places near Xijicheng that they have not been to, and they want to experience it along the way.
I asked Ting Lan for her opinion and she had no objection.
When the agreed departure time arrived, both Tang He and Lin Jialuo came to see him off.
"Do you really want to go by yourself?" Lin Jialuo was a little worried: "Otherwise, wait two more days, and then the Xianqicheng Demon Control Master will set off together."
Cheng Yan shook his head and refused.
So Lin Jialuo had no choice but to give up and gave Cheng Yan some maps of the West Pole and a lot of thorns from the Overlord Dryad.
Cheng Yuan also gave him some pond water and strange but useful spiritual weapons in return.
Lin Jialuo and Tang He took them to the city gate before leaving.
"It seems that Yanchu doesn't plan to come." Ji Qiuyu sighed slightly and patted Cheng Yuan's hand: "Let's go."
Cheng Yan helped Ting Lan, who was wrapped in black robe, move forward.
Not long after the three of them left the desert, someone caught up with them.
"Sister Xiaoyuan! Senior Sister Ji, wait for me!"
"It's Yanchu." Ji Qiuyu's face was full of joy.
Cheng Yuan smiled: "I thought she could be defeated so easily."
Yan Chu caught up with them and gasped: "I made it clear to my mother. My mother is willing to support my decision. She managed to help me transfer the master away from the West Pole. She will not come back for at least a few years." "She doesn't know you're with us?"
"I don't know. She must have thought that I would obey her arrangements obediently, so she felt relieved when she left." Yan Chu said with some secret joy: "This is the first time I have secretly violated the master's words. In the past, I refused directly.
Then the master would always try every means to force me to agree.
Now that I think about it, Aunt Lan was right when she said that I was too easy to break. Many times, if I change my approach, it will be easier to achieve what I want."
"Ahem, I can't help but remember it," Ting Lan said.
Yanchu was shocked when he heard such a familiar voice and looked at the cloaked man in disbelief.
Until Tinglan took off her cloak, revealing her delicate face.
Yan Chu's eyes suddenly turned red: "I'm sorry, Aunt Lan, that day...I told my mother after I went back that I wanted her to rescue you...but my mother said it was too late and you were no longer there." "City Lord, are you really looking for me?" Ting Lan looked excited.
Yanchu nodded repeatedly: "My mother sent many people to look for you in the West End, and even searched the city. When she learned that it was my master who locked you up there, she was very angry and injured my master.
.My master left so quickly this time because he was temporarily avoiding the limelight."
Tinglan looked in the direction of Xianqicheng, her eyes that were not covered by gauze were full of emotion.
She slowly knelt down and made a big salute there.
In the yellow sand of the desert and the billowing smoke and dust, there seemed to be a figure on the city wall, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
After a moment, Cheng Yan stepped forward to help Tinglan up.
"Aunt Lan, okay. It's getting late, let's go."
……
At nightfall, a group of four of them came to the next city - Demon City.
Although the name of this city is a bit scary, the atmosphere of the city is similar to that of Xianqi City.
Different from Xianqi City, the demon master here likes to light up various luminous spiritual objects at night, making the city brightly lit as bright as day.
You can see bright lights from a distance in the desert.
"It is said that a dream demon once appeared in the Demonic City, and it liked to nibble away at the souls of the demon masters in their dreams. The demon masters in the Demonic City lit up all the lighting objects to deal with it by not entering dreams.
"Ji Qiuyu explained.
"Is this useful?"
Cheng Yan didn't understand that if the dream demon wanted to fall asleep, it would not only wait for people to fall asleep, but also anyone who was not focused and had weak spiritual will might be hypnotized by the dream demon and fall asleep.
Ji Qiuyu nodded: "It was very useful. Dream demons hated light, so they disappeared after a while. Since then, Monster City has continued this practice."
While they were talking, several people had already entered the city and paid the entrance fee of ten spiritual stones per person.
Swish, swish, countless dazzling lights shine in front of the eyes, and a group of people gather around.
"Come on, come on, are some fairies from outside the city? Take a look, these are the most popular spiritual jewelry in the city. Wearing them, you will be the most beautiful fairy in the whole city, shining brightly in the whole city!
”
"Do you like hairbands that light up? Earrings, bracelets, necklaces, everything."
"Dharma ornaments made of colorful flowing cloud brocade are most suitable for fairies."
The four people shook their heads repeatedly and braved the wave of enthusiasm at the city gate.
Yanchu breathed a sigh of relief: "I almost forgot to tell you that wearing luminous ornaments is their tradition. When I came here a few years ago, I didn't avoid it. I bought a lot of things, but later I found out that they were all flashy.
of."
"They didn't come after them, right?" Cheng Yan said.
Xianqicheng has never been so enthusiastic about promoting its spiritual items.
"As long as you don't take out the spiritual stones to buy them, they won't come after you. Otherwise, once your spiritual stones are exposed to the light, they won't let you go easily." Yanchu thought about his experience, and he was still frightened.
She was the young city lord and was protected by a group of guards, and she almost fell into that wave of craze.
Happy May Day!
Today I went to play in the deep mountains and wild forests.
I tried to pick wild strawberries, but the results turned out to be nothing, they were still green, and I had to pick them again.
