Only when he got closer did Gao Yuan discover that the giant aerial city of 'Tiandong Chamber of Commerce' was not suspended directly above Qingliang City, but was suspended in the sky seven or eight miles away to the north of Qingliang City.
Because he was too far away before, he didn't notice the impact of visual dislocation.
But this is normal, Qingliang City is also one of the main cities in the Northern Territory.
No matter how strong the ‘Tiandong Chamber of Commerce’ is, there is no reason to put the ‘Floating City’ above the main city.
No matter which aspect you consider, the Lord of Qingliang City will probably not agree with this.
Following the bustling flow of people, Gao Yuan walked straight towards the north gate along the stone road that spanned the north-south axis of Qingliang City.
His people were still in the corridor under the city gate when they first heard bursts of exclamations coming from the direction outside the city gate.
Without looking carefully, you can roughly guess what these people are marveling at.
Arriving outside the city, he, like the people around him, subconsciously raised his head and looked into the distant sky.
I saw the huge 'Floating City', currently suspended steadily in the air a thousand meters above the ground.
Its bottom surface is in a regular square shape, and according to visual inspection, the side length is at least eight or nine kilometers.
In other words, the overall area of this 'floating city' is probably hundreds of square kilometers!
At a glance, the latter looks like a giant mountain range rising into the sky.
Although Gaoyuan is still seven or eight miles away from this 'Floating City' at this time.
But where he was at this time, including the Qingliang City Tower behind him, were all shrouded in the shadow cast by it.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Gao Yuan subconsciously activated the second-level Qi-gazing technique and looked towards the 'Floating City' in the mid-air in the distance.
He has a very strong interest in the talisman formation that can drive this majestic mountain-like beast to achieve stable levitation and high-speed flight.
However, in the special field of vision of his qi-gazing technique, there was only a gray void that represented the direction of this 'floating city'.
"Sure enough, this 'floating city' was transformed from a complete ancient ruins, and its external materials naturally have the same characteristics as the underground ruins."
Gao Yuan was not surprised by this observation.
After all, he has been to ancient ruins three times combined.
The second-level breath-seeing technique does not work on the materials of these ruins, and this is not the first time that this has happened.
With a thought, Gao Yuan removed the qi-gazing technique, and followed the flow of people slowly while looking into the distance calmly.
Just below the 'Floating City', on the originally empty wilderness, many building facilities have appeared out of thin air.
All these building facilities are huge in size and extraordinary in appearance.
The most important thing is that the previously melted snow and extremely muddy ground below it has been neatly paved with a layer of blue-gray square tiles.
In the scene in front of me, except for the lack of urban construction on the periphery, a large and gorgeous village and town was built on the ground overnight!
In addition to the pedestrians walking out of Qingliang City one after another, there were also many young people who looked like staff.
These people were both men and women, all wearing uniform robes.
At this time, they were gathering neatly and orderly around these building facilities, looking extremely busy.
And at the center of these building facilities, there are strange things that look like airships from time to time, flying back and forth quickly between the ground and the "floating city" suspended in the sky.
From a distance, it looks like a bee busy around the hive.
At the same time, from time to time, you can see big-bellied flying boats of different shapes and sizes flying in from a distance.
I saw these big-bellied flying boats starting to slow down gradually even though they were far away.
Then, under the guidance of some figures also wearing standard robes, they landed neatly on the periphery of these building facilities, in a huge area like a shipyard.
"The owners of these big-bellied flying boats are probably the big guys from all over the world who came from outer cities or outer regions to participate in this auction."
Gao Gao looked at the spectacular scene from afar and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
With the help of the platform of the Exile Alliance, at this time, although he is still limited to the cultivation level of Kaiyuan Realm.
But in terms of various aspects of knowledge, it has actually increased a lot.
He knew very well that these big-bellied flying boats, which were comparable in size to the yachts on Earth in previous lives, were simply not something that ordinary Kaiyuan Realm monks could afford.
Its owner is at least in the Hunyuan realm, or even at a higher level of cultivation.
Thinking of this, he felt even more excited about the upcoming auction.
After all, to attract these powerful bosses to travel thousands of miles to participate, the quality of the items sold in this auction must not be low.
Even if you don’t buy it, it’s worth looking forward to just gaining experience!
…
The distance of seven or eight miles will be reached in a moment.
It didn't take long for Gao Yuan to follow the flow of people and arrive at the outskirts of the building complex below the 'Floating City'.
Although there are a lot of these buildings, at a glance, there are no less than hundreds of large and small buildings.
Around these buildings, young people wearing traditional robes can be seen everywhere.
Under his proactive introduction, Gao Yuan quickly figured out the specific functions of the buildings below.
The first step is to register and apply for special temporary pass tokens for the many guests participating in this auction.
The second step is to arrange for the registered guests to take a special "ferry boat" and fly to the "Floating City" above.
Except for the shipyard-like buildings on the periphery, the functions of the hundreds of buildings around it are roughly the same.
Therefore, Gao Yuan didn't wander much and just stood in front of a building with not many people in front.
While waiting in line to go through the formalities, I looked around curiously.
His eyes first followed the ferry boats that were coming and going for a while.
But it didn't take long before his attention was attracted by the gorgeously decorated buildings around him.
"Fuck!"
"These surrounding buildings are all miniature treasures of caves!"
I carefully sensed the undisguised energy fluctuations around these buildings for a while.
Although there was no obvious change on Gao Yuan's face, there were huge waves in his heart.
Because he himself has a high-level ‘Linglong Cave’, he is very familiar with the energy fluctuations emitted when the latter is running.
In addition, these buildings in front of us did not cover up the energy fluctuations around them.
Therefore, Gao Yuan could easily judge that the surrounding buildings were indeed transformed from the 'treasure of the cave'.
Gu Cun
"This... is really a big deal!"
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart.
Because in the original battle of the Sunset Mountains, he captured the Linglong Cave.
Later, he specifically issued relevant intelligence gathering tasks in the Exile Alliance.
This kind of application of the principle of 'mustard space', supplemented by corresponding talisman arrays and control arrays, to comprehensively refine the 'Treasure of the Cave Mansion', is basically very expensive.
Even the most common entry-level caves with a building area of about one to two hundred square meters often start at hundreds of thousands of intermediate spiritual stones.
In the subsequent Exile Alliance auction, he also saw a 'Treasure of the Cave' that was similar to the 'Linglong Cave' he had captured, both in terms of size and internal control array.
After a fierce competition for the latter, the final transaction price was as high as 6.75 million intermediate spiritual stones!
And the scale of each of these buildings in front of him, which are only used for guest registration procedures, is much larger than his 'Linglong Cave'.
And there are hundreds of such buildings nearby...
"Fuck!"
"It is indeed a super large chamber of commerce with business in all directions. This arrogance is really not ordinary!"
Gao Yuan forcibly suppressed his turbulent emotions and said to himself in shock.
…
The staff in these buildings are very efficient.
Not long after queuing, it was Gao Yuan's turn.
As early as when the people at the front of the team were communicating with these staff, Gao Yuan had already listened to all the details required to apply for a 'temporary pass'.
The so-called 'temporary pass tokens' registered here are divided into four levels: heaven, earth, black and yellow.
These four levels correspond to the four consumption standards during the auction.
In addition to the general permission to ride on the 'Ferry Boat' as many times as possible after completing the application.
The four levels of this 'temporary access token' respectively correspond to the four box standards at the auction venue.
That's right, at the Tiandong Auction venue, guests who choose any consumption standard will receive a closed box during the auction.
As for these four consumption levels, there will be detailed differences in the space size of the box, the number of followers that can be carried, and the corresponding services, etc.
Among them, the yellow-level box has the lowest cost, requiring 100 intermediate-level spiritual stones per game.
Except for the most basic services, this level cannot bring any followers.
The Xuan level is a bit more expensive, requiring 1,000 intermediate level spiritual stones per game. In addition to providing richer services than the Yellow level, you can also bring two additional followers.
In addition, single-game reservations are not accepted for the heaven and earth-level boxes. The package prices for the two levels are 500,000 and 200,000 intermediate spiritual stones respectively.
As for the large list of permissions appended to this level, Gao Yuan did not look carefully.
Firstly, he is now alone and has no followers to bring with him. The most important thing is that his current financial resources are far from rich enough to buy hundreds of thousands of intermediate spiritual stones for ostentation.
Once, without any delay, he casually took out a 'Dang Qian Ling' that he had just exchanged the day before yesterday and handed it to the handsome young man in front of him.
Directly booked the ‘yellow-level box’ tickets for ten auctions at once.
Then he took a palm-sized dark cyan token handed over by the staff.
Taking the latter in hand and looking at it briefly, I saw that on the front was an ancient inscribed word "黄".
On the back, two lines of regular fonts are engraved.
The top line is 'Dingmao', and the bottom line is in slightly smaller font, inscribed with 'Seventy-Two'.
"Tsk, all the heavenly stems and earthly branches have been used. You don't need to think about it to know how exaggerated the number of boxes in this auction venue is!"
Gao Yuan sighed in his heart and did not stop here. Under the guidance of a woman in blue, he quickly arrived at the back of the building.
I saw a row of small bus-sized ‘ferrying boats’ neatly parked here.
These 'ferrying boats' are all in the shape of an open circular structure.
In addition to a young man wearing a uniform like the staff outside, there are five additional seats.
At this time, there were already four people sitting there, two men and two women, and the warehouse was full with Gao Yuan.
"This fellow Taoist has invited you."
Seeing Gao Yuan walking out under the leadership of the woman in blue, the young man in charge of the 'Spirit Boat Ferry' bowed from a distance and said with a smile:
"Fellow Taoist, please come and sit down here. I will set off on the spirit boat right now."
Gao Yuan nodded when he heard this, walked to an empty seat and sat down, curiously observing the young man's actions.
The latter patted the storage bag on his waist, and a dark brown round token appeared in his hand.
Inspired by the magic formula that the young man casually played, a dark golden halo suddenly erupted on the surface of the token.
At the same time, I heard a soft buzzing sound from the 'ferrying spirit boat' beneath me.
Then he straightened up from the ground and rushed towards the 'Floating City' in the sky.
When Gao Yuan saw this, he was astonished in his heart. In a trance, he felt as if he had really been on a ferry boat in his previous life on earth.
…
In less than ten breaths, this 'ferrying spirit boat' slowly slowed down and reached an altitude of a thousand meters above the ground.
At this moment, I saw a dark red light and shadow suddenly flashing out of a ring structure with a diameter of more than ten feet on the outside of the 'Floating City' not far away, and flashed quickly on the surface of the 'Ferry Spirit Boat'.
After a brief pause as if to verify, the dark red light and shadow then faded away, and the 'ferrying spirit boat' accelerated slightly.
After passing through this huge ring structure, we landed in a pier structure.
I saw that this was a huge palace that looked like a station in its previous life. At first glance, it seemed that its area was thousands of square meters.
Seven or eight 'ferry boats' similar to the one Gao Yuan was riding were docked on both sides of a ten-meter-wide 'platform' in the center.
After the passengers above left, they quickly left the 'pier area' and flew towards the ground.
"The dock of the 'Floating City' has arrived. Fellow Taoists can leave on their own. If you want to leave, you can go to any dock area of the 'Floating City' and wait for the 'Ferry Spirit Boat' to pick you up."
I saw the young man quickly cast a magic spell on the circular token in his hand. As the spiritual light circulated on the latter's surface, the buzz of the 'ferrying spirit boat' under his feet also subsided.
Hearing this, Gao Yuan followed the other four people, got up and went down to the 'platform' aside.
On the surface, there were already dozens of people in the latter, each walking towards the huge portal a hundred or ten meters away.
