The ground shook violently, but it only lasted for a while and then returned to normal.
Everyone was not too panicked. After all, Chizhang City is located in a volcanic zone. The surrounding volcanoes have been very active recently and erupted frequently. Maybe it was just some aftershocks transmitted.
Chizhang City is protected by powerful formations and has never had any problems over the years, so there is no need to worry.
No one took this earthquake seriously. Only the landlady felt uneasy. She knew in her heart that this was no accident. The demons must have done something secretly. There must be something wrong with the protective formation under Chizhang City.
I'm afraid, it won't be long before disaster strikes.
The wisest thing to do now is to leave Chizhang City as soon as possible.
But for some reason, she was worried about Ji Mo and couldn't let go of Ji Mo and didn't want to see him die.
"How can I save you?"
The landlady held her forehead and sighed, her crystal face full of worry.
Below Chizhang City.
In the criss-crossing underground passages, an old man in gray robes was walking among them. He was the third leader of the Seven Evils Alliance.
In the surrounding soil, you can faintly see the base of the city defense array blooming with gleaming light.
The Third Master held a piece of paper in his hand, with the formation diagram of the Chizhang City Guard Formation drawn on it, and each formation base node and so on were marked in detail.
He got this from Tang Qian under the pretext of maintaining the formation.
With this formation diagram in hand, and relying on his own formation master's skills, he can change this formation within a period of time.
A sinister smile appeared on the third master's face, and he began to make changes to these formations.
On the surface, they say they are maintaining the formation, but in fact they have ulterior motives, intending to turn this protective formation into a killing tool.
"It won't be long before the entire Chizhang City will be wiped out in my hands. I really can't wait to see millions of people wailing in despair. It will definitely be spectacular, and it's exciting just thinking about it."
The third master showed cruelty on his face.
He wants to use the millions of lives of the entire Chizhang City to refine a powerful magic weapon to reconnect the gate to the demon world.
Tang Qian would never have thought that he had lured a wolf into the house, and that the Third Leader was actually a lackey of the demon clan, frantically thinking about destroying the entire Chizhang City and slaughtering millions of living beings.
…
After the top ten of the ranking competition were announced, the tense competition came to an end for the time being, and the Tang family arranged five days of repair time.
Song Weiqian was afraid of being pestered, so she locked herself in her room and stayed behind closed doors.
Lin Mengmeng, Xuanyang, and Wang Wenjian, in order to win first place, took every minute to practice hard and stayed in the room.
Ji Mo had nothing to do and was afraid of being harassed by the landlady while staying at the inn, so he sneaked out.
He had been coming to Chizhang City for several days, but he had never had a chance to visit. Now that he had little leisure time, and he had a lot of money, he wanted to go shopping.
He slipped out of the inn and went out into the street.
The streets were busy with traffic and the sounds of hawking were coming and going, making it very lively.
Ji Mo was not short of money, so he bought randomly and bought some new gadgets to try out when he saw them.
But it soon became boring.
He vomited after taking one bite of the exorbitantly priced spiritual food that boasted of being able to strengthen his bones and was cooked with the flesh and blood of the great demon, costing hundreds of taels of gold.
It's simply hard to swallow.
And it has no effect at all, far worse than the game he made himself.
There is also a golden drink, which is said to be precious spiritual liquid and has extraordinary effects.
Ji Mo also spent a lot of money to buy a small bottle, but it turned out that it didn't taste as good as his own well water.
"It seems that all monks are stupid and have too much money."
Ji Mo looked at the monks rushing to buy these things and shook his head secretly.
I feel that these monks are too easy to deceive and they are all taken advantage of.
It's a pity that Chizhang City is too far away from my home. Otherwise, if I sell my well water and give it a cool-sounding name, I will definitely make a lot of money.
An auction house caught Ji Mo's attention.
It happened that an auction was going on, which attracted a lot of people.
Ji Mo also wanted to see something and broaden his horizons, so he walked over.
The guard guarding the door looked down upon others. When he saw Ji Mo's ordinary clothes and lack of cultivation, he stopped him and said, "Boy, this is not a place for you to come."
Ji Mo didn't talk nonsense, he immediately loosened his belt and took out a big lump in front of everyone.
Under the dumbfounded gaze of the gatekeeper, he strode into the auction house with great pride.
"Nouveau riche, who would tie a stack of gold tickets to their pants?"
The guard swallowed hard and took a sip.
Such a thick stack of gold tickets would probably cost ten million taels.
He was so malicious that he almost couldn't help but resort to evil tactics and robbed Ji Mo.
Unfortunately, the security in Chizhang City is not bad. Even if he grabs this huge sum of money, he can't escape, so he is tempted but dare not take action.
dark place.
Tang Heng frowned. He was responsible for keeping an eye on the Langya Academy group and looking for opportunities to kidnap them.
However, Song Weiqian and the others didn't go out at all, so they could only follow the most worthless Ji Mo.
Tang Heng thought for a moment and then entered the auction house.
The gold tickets that Ji Mo was carrying were earned from the Tang Family Gambling House, and the principal amount was the ten taels of silver that Tang Heng threw away when he humiliated Langya Academy.
For this reason, he was severely scolded by Tang Qian.
Today I have no choice but to find an opportunity to teach Ji Mo a lesson to get rid of the bad temper in my heart.
The auction hall was already crowded with people.
Those with status will naturally have special VIP boxes. An unknown person like Ji Mo can only stand and not even have a seat.
The auction has started for a while, and the atmosphere is very lively. Everyone is shouting the price, and they are willing to spend a lot of money for the things they like.
Ji Mo couldn't help but be speechless when he heard the bidding price of gold, which often ranged from tens to millions of taels.
Although he has a huge amount of gold worth tens of millions of taels, it is obviously not easy to use in a place like this and he cannot buy anything.
The multi-treasure snake that had been coiled around Ji Mo's wrist seemed to feel that there were treasures around it, and raised its little head excitedly.
Ji Mo felt happy. This little cutie could sense the existence of the treasure. Maybe he could pick it up and make a fortune.
In the VIP box, someone's eyes fell on Ji Mo, with a faint murderous intent in their eyes.
This person is none other than Zeng Qiyan.
He made a bet with Ji Mo about who would win the competition between Shengling Academy and Langya Academy.
Originally, he didn't take Lang Ya seriously, thinking that Lang Ya posed no threat to Sheng Ling.
However, Langya Academy's strong entry into the top ten made him feel huge pressure, and the strength displayed by Langya's three genius students indeed qualified them to compete with Sheng Ling.
"What, you have a grudge against this kid?"
Next to Zeng Qiyan, a young man in gorgeous clothes and a noble face asked.
His name is Tan Yun'ao, he comes from Fukongshan, the top power in the Western Region, and he is Fukongshan's contemporary holy son, with a high status.
Zeng Qiyan wanted to climb Fukong Mountain, and he had been deliberately currying favor with Tan Yun'ao these days.
"Holy Son Yun Ao, this is the Ji Mo I mentioned to you. He was the one who bet with me with the Langya Academy's middle-grade sword."
Zeng Qiyan introduced.
"Interesting, let's have some fun with this ant today."
The corner of Tan Yun'ao's mouth evoked an unruly smile. He also wanted to own the fairy sword from Langya Academy.
Sudden.
The Turbot snake hissed and stared at the auction table with its ruby-like eyes.
Ji Mo's face was full of excitement: "Could it be that a good baby has appeared?"
