Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start
Chapter 1065: Escape and Black Crystal City
"The situation is critical, you must leave immediately." After retracting her consciousness, Hua Qingyao immediately looked at Mo Juren, and upon hearing this, the latter was slightly stunned.
Naturally, he was aware of the situation outside, and his heart sank to the bottom in an instant.
Even if the former is quite powerful, the gap between the enemy and me is too big, and he can never be his opponent. And I, who am only at the Spirit Transformation Stage, will inevitably be affected, and the outcome is predictable.
The first thing he thought of was to escape. It happened that he had just obtained a Sky-Splitting Talisman, which came in handy at this moment. Maybe he could take this opportunity to break away from Hua Qingyao's control.
However, what he didn't expect was that as soon as the thought came to his mind, the other party actually took the initiative to propose it, and it sounded as if he wanted to leave first.
This is indeed somewhat unexpected.
"Then fairy, you..." Mo Juren was about to ask, but was interrupted by the other party anxiously.
“I know what you mean, but unfortunately, the Sky-Splitting Talisman can only be used by one person, and cannot be used by others.
To take a step back, even if it can be used by multiple people and can teleport you and me to a place a hundred thousand miles away at the same time, it still has no meaning. A hundred thousand miles is nothing for a strong person in the fusion realm.
The other party was able to ambush here so accurately, which shows that they have some powerful tracking means, and it is not so easy to get rid of. If I leave with you, it is very likely that no one will be able to escape in the end.
Therefore, it is the most correct choice for you to leave by yourself. As for me, although I cannot win, I also have plenty of means to save my life. It will be no problem for me to escape without having to worry about you.
Their target is me, so even if they notice you are missing, they won’t take it to heart.”
Hua Qingyao made a quick analysis and then urged again,
"Now is not the time to hesitate. Hurry up and leave. I will come to find you after I get out of this situation..."
"Take care, fairy." The other party had said it so clearly, and Mo Juren naturally was not a cynic, so he immediately took out the Sky-Splitting Talisman.
He quickly activated his spiritual power and began to stimulate it. The light was so blinding that it enveloped his entire body.
Seeing this scene, Hua Qingyao seemed to have thought of something. Her expression changed slightly and she disappeared from the attic in an instant. When she reappeared, she was already in the air more than ten feet away from the flying boat.
As soon as the figure stopped, a space crack suddenly appeared where the flying boat was originally located, directly tearing the flying boat into two halves, and then a ball of light instantly sank into it.
The person inside the light ball was naturally Mo Juren. From the time he activated the talisman to the time he finished, it only took a few breaths. He was teleported away and the space crack quickly returned to normal.
Hua Qingyao had anticipated this, but the other four people floating in the air not far away were all confused at this moment.
Of course they were familiar with the Sky-Splitting Talisman, but it was precisely because of that that they were even more confused at this moment. Since the other party had this talisman in hand, why didn't he use it himself, but instead gave it to the human boy?
Putting herself in danger just to save a human man is totally out of character for this witch.
It couldn't be that he was moved, right? What was so special about that boy that made him willing to risk his life to protect him?
It seems impossible just by thinking about it. There is only one explanation. This person must be extremely important to the witch, so she is willing to risk her own life to protect him.
All four of them thought of this, but as Hua Qingyao had said before, their target was the other party, and they didn't care whether the human man ran away or not.
Thinking of this, the four did not delay any longer. After looking at each other, they took out their respective magic weapons.
Hua Qingyao naturally couldn't stay and fight, so she immediately took off into the air, wanting to leave directly from above. However, just after flying for a distance, she was suddenly blocked by a golden light net that appeared out of thin air.
The moment the body touched it, a terrifying electric current suddenly spread throughout the body.
It turned out that a net had been laid here long ago, and it was unrealistic to escape directly. At this time, rays of precious light had already swept over with terrifying pressure...
……
Somewhere one hundred thousand miles away, a crack suddenly appeared in space, and then a huge ball of light shot out.
Then the ball of light quickly dimmed until it broke and disappeared, revealing Mo Juren's frightened figure, with a look of surprise at having escaped death.
Looking around carefully, I found that I was standing on a rocky beach. In front of me was a magnificent river. The river was rushing down with huge waves, and I didn't know where it was flowing to.
Mo Juren immediately took out the jade slip and looked through it carefully. This was the map he had purchased again at the Wanbao Conference, which covered almost most of the three realms of the human race.
As for the seven lands of the demon race, he did buy one, but unfortunately the quality was so poor that it was almost useless.
After some comparison, he finally knew its current location and immediately put it away.
At this time, he had only escaped 100,000 miles, and the crisis was far from over, so he could not delay and needed to continue escaping.
As for where to go? He had already made up his mind, it was Tianyuan City.
Now that he had already escaped, it would be best to completely get out of Hua Qingyao's "clutches", but it was not easy to do so, after all, he was carrying the so-called "spirit of the celestial fox" on him.
Therefore, Tianyuan City is the only choice. Only by obtaining the Dust-Mieting Pill can they be suppressed and eventually eliminated.
However, the distance to Tianyuan City is not very close, and simply flying there is obviously not possible. Not only is it too slow, but there are also too many uncertainties. It is even possible that the other party will catch up with you before you reach your destination.
The best way is through the teleportation array. In order to maintain close contact between the human and demon races, teleportation points have been set up in some key locations in the three realms and seven places, which have the function of ultra-long-distance teleportation.
Tianyuan City is the most special. The teleportation array built in the city can directly connect with the three realms and seven places.
However, these large teleportation arrays are too important and are truly strategic facilities, so ordinary low- and middle-level cultivators are not qualified to use them.
Even Mo Juren, who has reached the Spirit Transformation Stage, can only use some short-distance teleportation arrays. Those super teleportation arrays that can directly cross the three realms and seven lands are still not effective.
The qualification restriction is one thing, and the amount of spirit stones required to use the teleportation array is also a very considerable amount, which is unaffordable for low- and middle-level cultivators.
Mo Juren was no exception, although he had some wealth now, most of it was treasures and spiritual materials, etc., which he could not sell in exchange for spirit stones.
In this case, we can only think of another solution.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and he did not delay any longer. He immediately turned into a ray of light and flew away into the air.
……
Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Mo Juren had been on the road for half a year, and the journey was smooth, and he finally arrived at his first destination successfully.
"Black Crystal City" is one of the famous big cities in Xuanwu. Although it cannot be compared with Xuanwu City, it is far from comparable to the cities that have been visited before.
The area of this city alone is more than tens of thousands of miles in radius. There are countless humans in the city. Not only is there a huge army of body cultivators, but various major sects of immortal cultivation also have bases stationed there.
The geographical location of Black Crystal City is also extremely special. There are a large number of demon activity areas around it, so in theory the living environment is extremely harsh.
In the Xuanwu Realm, this situation is not uncommon and can be seen everywhere.
As for the harsh environment, it is only in theory. After all, the disputes between the lower classes of the human and demon races are tacitly approved by the top leaders and are not really a fight to the death.
Therefore, the scale of such fights is limited, and basically it ends with neither side winning or losing.
What was quite a coincidence was that just when Mo Juren was about to arrive at Black Crystal City, he happened to hear some discussions from passing monks, which seemed to indicate that a tide of beasts was about to arrive.
"So, the scale of the beast tide this time is far greater than any previous ones?" In a dense forest somewhere, a dozen figures were sitting together, seemingly discussing something. One of them was Mo Juren, who looked at a bearded, burly man in front of him and asked.
"Not only is the scale large, but the strength is also far beyond the previous beast tides. According to a good friend of Zhou in the city, the number of monsters in this beast tide may exceed one million, with level six and seven monsters everywhere, and a large number of big monsters in the transformation stage participating.
This kind of super-large-scale beast tide is rarely seen. The last time it happened was more than a hundred years ago in the "Guangyue City" in the eastern region. The battle lasted for several months and both sides suffered heavy casualties in the end.
Now that this situation has happened again, it is scary to think about it, but dangers are often accompanied by opportunities. If you participate in it, the benefits you can get afterwards will also be extremely generous. "The strong man nodded seriously, and his huge eyes also revealed greed that could not be concealed.
Not only him, the other people around him also had the same idea, and they all looked eager to try.
"Brother Mo, what do you think? Are you willing to join us in this defense battle? In addition, the Lord of Black Crystal City has already promised that he will pay a huge reward after this battle. Those who perform outstandingly will get a chance to enter the secret pavilion of Black Crystal City and can even take away three treasures at will."
"Secret Chamber?" Mo Juren's eyes flickered slightly, but his heart was not moved at all.
"Mo is indeed going to Black Crystal City. As for whether to form a team and participate in the defense battle, I still need to think about it. After all, a beast tide of this scale is too dangerous. The strength of the Jindan stage is not enough. If you are not careful, you will not get any benefits, but will get yourself into trouble."
"It's only natural for Brother Mo to have such thoughts. Anyway, there's still time. It won't be too late to make a decision after we get to Black Crystal City." As he spoke, the sturdy man took out a communication talisman and handed it to the other party.
"Please accept this talisman, my dear brother. If you figure it out, please contact me directly. I can't guarantee anything else, but I will definitely not let you down in terms of the final reward and benefits."
"Thank you very much, Brother Zhou." Mo Juren did not refuse again, so as not to embarrass the other party, and directly took the talisman.
Seeing that he accepted it, the sturdy man immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and even felt a little secretly happy in his heart.
In fact, he himself was only in the late Jindan stage, and more than ten people present were also in the Jindan stage. This temporary team was formed just to participate in this beast tide.
By chance, he met the man named Mo. Although he seemed to be only in the initial stage of Jindan realm, he always gave him a feeling that he was unfathomable.
If such a person can be recruited into one's team, it is very likely to bring unexpectedly rich rewards.
Not only him, but everyone else present was also looking forward to Mo Juren's joining. After all, the stronger the team is, the more beneficial it will be for subsequent actions.
Looking up at the sky, the strong man immediately stood up and said:
"It's getting late. Let's continue on our journey and try to reach Black Crystal City in three days."
"Alright"
Naturally, everyone had no objection, and they immediately rode on their beams of light and flew into the sky, disappearing at the end of the sky in the blink of an eye.
……
As the beast tide approaches, more and more monks rush to Black Crystal City. The rewards promised by the city are one aspect, but many people also cherish this opportunity to gain experience.
Risks are inevitable, but as long as we can hold on until the end of the war, the benefits we can gain will be enormous.
Within three days, Mo Juren and his party appeared outside the Black Crystal City on time.
Unlike others, this was his first time here. When he saw the black city wall in front of him that was over a hundred feet high and stretched as far as the eye could see, his heart was slightly shaken.
It is worthy of being a famous giant city in Xuanwu Realm. I wonder how it compares with Tianyuan City?
I think it cannot be compared, but this city is indeed extraordinary. The entire city wall is built with some unknown black crystal.
According to what the strong man said, these are black crystals, a relatively special spiritual material, and also the origin of the city's name.
Black crystal is not that precious, otherwise it would not be used to build city walls. Its reserves are extremely abundant, and its veins can be found everywhere in the three realms and seven lands.
However, the property of this thing is very simple, that is, it is relatively hard, and it is very suitable for building walls. Of course, it can also be used to build some other buildings, but other than that, it has no other uses.
This is also one of the main reasons why the price of black crystal cannot go up.
As the beast tide approaches, the number of monks and body cultivators rushing to Black Crystal City has increased rapidly, resulting in the streets now being crowded with people, making it difficult to move forward, at least that's the case in the area ahead.
"I have some personal matters to take care of, so I'll take my leave for now." Inside the city gate, Mo Juren slowly withdrew his gaze and said goodbye to the burly man.
"Go ahead, brother. You need to think about the other matter again. Once you've made up your mind, you can go directly to the 'Xijiang Tower' in the east of the city. We'll settle down there." The sturdy man laughed and had no intention of stopping him.
"Okay, I'll consider it." Mo Juren bowed, and without further delay, he plunged into the surging crowd and soon disappeared.
At this time, another man in blue suddenly came closer and said meaningfully,
"This person is a bit strange! Since he came to Black Crystal City, he must be here to fight the beast tide. Fighting alone is too dangerous, and teaming up with other cultivators is the best choice. But Brother Zhou tried to win him over before, but he remained unmoved. Is there something strange going on?"
"Don't let your imagination run wild. Even if there is something fishy going on, what does it have to do with us? Is there anything we can do?" The sturdy man shook his head slightly and sighed in his heart.
He was not stupid, so he naturally understood that the man's so-called consideration was just perfunctory, and he actually did not agree to join the team. Perhaps he really had other purposes, but as he said, there was nothing he could do. After all, the two parties had just met and did not know much about each other. Who knew what the other party was like?
What if it’s an old monster who has hidden his abilities?
This is not impossible. Ever since they met each other, he always had a feeling that he couldn't see through her. Maybe he really guessed it right.
In short, he would never offend such an existence.
Thinking of this, he was too lazy to worry about anything else. He just called out and led everyone forward.
At the same time, after walking for nearly half an hour, Mo Juren had arrived in front of a palace. When he was about to enter, he suddenly heard a conversation between two people not far away.
For a moment, his face suddenly turned ugly. (End of this chapter)
