Chapter 699: The Imperial City of Zhou and Song Kingdom
The distance between Hua'an City and Songjun County is only a few thousand miles, and the official road between the two cities is unimpeded. This is also the most satisfying thing about the cultivation world in the Central Plains.
Because of the vast area and the long distance between the two cities, sects, families and even casual cultivators have always attached great importance to the official way of communicating with each other, and invested a lot of energy in repairing it.
On the official roads of the two cities, monks will be seen patrolling at regular intervals. Once a monster attempts to occupy it, it will definitely suffer a devastating blow.
Some casual cultivators who often travel between cities will generally not hesitate to take action when encountering similar situations, as long as they are within their respective capabilities.
After encountering some powerful monsters, we will try our best to report the situation to the surrounding families and sects, so that they can dispatch relevant monks to kill them as soon as possible.
It is precisely because of this continuous investment at all costs that officialdom has gradually become a red line in the monster's pitiful cognition. All of this is built on countless bones and blood.
Zhao Shoushou naturally cherished the unimpeded official road, and once killed two low-level third-level snake monsters that tried to entangle themselves on the road.
As the morning sun set off from Hua'an City, the gate of the county city had already appeared vaguely at noon. After a quarter of an hour, the transaction was completed and he left Yang's Puppet Shop smoothly. After making some supplements in the city, his figure left again in the evening and headed north.
"The county city is already so prosperous, what will happen to the imperial city?" Zhao Shoushou murmured and disappeared quickly, heading towards the next target.
Songjun is one of the twenty-eight counties of the Zhou and Song Kingdoms. The Zhou and Song Kingdoms are just a small country on the huge map of the Central Plains cultivation world, close to the south and bordering the Shiwan Mountains.
In the various large and small countries in the Central Plains cultivation world, the royal family is the most powerful force in the region. Although each city belongs to large or small sects and families, it still needs to obey the orders of the royal family.
The royal family of the Zhou and Song Dynasties has ruled this country for more than five thousand years. Currently, there are six ancestors in the divine transformation stage. The strongest one is a great monk who is only one step away from ascending to the spiritual world in the late divine transformation stage.
, the existence of this ancestor is also the confidence that the royal rule is stable.
According to current records, in the past five thousand years of the royal family of the Zhou and Song Dynasties, at least three ancestors have successfully survived thunder tribulations and ascended to the spiritual world. Occasionally, they used secret techniques to overcome space barriers and passed down a few words of advice or some small figures.
of treasures.
This is also one of the most obvious differences between the cultivation world in the Central Plains and the subcontinent, overseas cultivation world, and mainland cultivation world. It still maintains intermittent contact with the spiritual world.
In the other three realms of cultivation, there are occasionally monks who have successfully ascended, but I have never heard of a certain communication channel between the two realms. This may be due to the fact that their cultivation strength was low at that time and they did not have a clear understanding of the high-level realms of cultivation.
A certain relationship.
The royal family of the Zhou and Song Dynasties was only a small and inconspicuous area on the territory of the Central Plains cultivation world, and its ranking among all the royal families was in the middle and lower ranks.
The reason why no one from these royal families is easily provoked is because they have some killer weapons from the spirit world, such as an immortal talisman with silver patterns, which is enough to kill an ancestor in the transformation stage.
Gu Xuan
In the past history, once the ruler of a certain country changed, it must be because the royal family was in a period of turmoil, and its power to intimidate the monks was greatly reduced.
However, these things have no actual impact on Zhao Shoushou. After all, his ultimate goal is to go to the imperial city to find more opportunities.
Whether it is the royal family or the history of the royal family, it is always an unattainable thing for him. A late-stage golden elixir cultivator will not have any impact on the royal family.
He is just an ordinary passerby.
Three days later, a majestic capital city appeared in front of us. The city wall was about twenty feet high. There was a complete piece of transparent and shining glass on each city wall. Every monk who entered the city wall must be under the light.
Through this process, you can easily identify the details of some unknown persons, which is also an effective measure.
After all, in the Central Plains cultivation world, there are always some high-level monsters who are proficient in various transformation techniques, trying to enter the gathering place of human monks, or to buy some special spiritual objects or cause trouble, etc. In this way, nine out of ten
Those with ulterior motives will be turned away.
There is also a hundred-foot-wide moat in front of the city wall, in which all the trained and tamed spiritual beasts are kept. Once someone tries to forcefully break into the city, this is the first problem that needs to be solved.
In front of the moat is a slightly lower-height city wall, which is patrolled continuously by monks. They are all mid- to late-stage foundation-building monks. The leader is a mid- or late-stage Jindan monk. They are wearing black defensive armor and holding long spears.
It is a standard magic weapon or spiritual weapon.
Its quality may not be outstanding among the same level, but it is better than average. Because it is produced in batches, the cost of each treasure is much lower. It can also be regarded as a secret technique in the royal weapon refining workshop.
In addition, these guards are also a special kind of Taoist soldiers. Once they encounter a strong enemy, under the leadership of their leader, they can gather the strength of several people to fight the enemy across ranks.
In addition to the visible intimidating power on the surface, the entire capital is a powerful formation. Once it is activated, even the ancestors in the transformation stage can be killed. All of this will take thousands of years.
accumulated, so it can also be said that the imperial city is the real foundation of the royal family.
As long as the imperial city is not lost, even if all the outside countries are defeated, they can still counterattack in the future and turn defeat into victory. Once the imperial city is lost, there will be no room for counterattack in the future.
"It is worthy of being the foundation of a country's imperial city. It is indeed worthy of its reputation. I hope the treasures inside will not disappoint me." After regaining consciousness, he strode towards the interior of the imperial city.
As the capital of a country, people are not prohibited from entering and exiting here. As long as they are not wanted persons or spies from other clans on the city wall, they can come and go freely in the capital.
The only test that needs to be passed is the light of glass. The main task of the defensive monks here is to suppress the monks who appear strange under the light of glass.
As an orthodox monk, he practices the genuine inherited technique "Water Condensation Technique", so there is no problem in being illuminated by the light of glass.
"There are countless people coming and going. It is indeed the imperial city of a country. Such a grand scene is far beyond any city I have ever seen before. Even the underground city at the core of the subcontinent cannot compare with it." This is after entering the imperial city
first feeling.
Because of the existence of the forbidden air formation, both monks and mortals can only move forward by walking. It is a special experience for monks. At least Zhao Shoushou prefers this special feeling.
, it can also be regarded as a special kind of mental cultivation training.
