Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

"no problem."

Chen Ye nodded and walked ahead of the group.

The six people were all moving closely together to avoid being separated by the surrounding crowd.

After all, while the queuing order at the Holy Mountain wasn't terrible, those who came here didn't adhere to it. They always tried to squeeze in whenever there was a gap in the queue.

after all.

In this area of ​​the Holy Mountain, countless beings cultivate with such abandon that they forget how much time has passed.

Therefore, when they see a line ahead that is empty, some people will try to fill it up quickly so they can squeeze in whenever they can.

Following closely behind Chen Ye in line was Jiu Feng.

Both individuals are currently without any information within this sacred mountain, so it will take some time for their identities to be entered into the system.

"I wonder what that glowing ball is, that thing that can record information."

At this moment, Chen Ye also stopped cultivating and focused his mind back on the long line of people. He looked at the arbitrators holding staffs in the distance and muttered something to himself.

at this time.

The queue was already more than halfway through, and now only about ten people remained at the front.

If information has been entered before, the green light will automatically turn on after scanning.

This indicates that it is permissible.

soon.

The crowd ahead moved slowly through the group, and now it was Chen Ye's turn.

"Relax and don't resist. It's just recording your basic spiritual information and assessing your initial physical characteristics. All of this information will be collected into the Sky City system and will be subject to the highest level of access, so you can't just look at it at will."

The arbitrator in front briefly explained the rules to Chen Ye, then held the scepter in his hand, and the ball of light emitted a bright white radiance that instantly enveloped Chen Ye.

next second.

As the light screen fell upon Chen Ye, a peculiar sensation enveloped him.

It feels like being bathed in a hot spring, warm and cozy.

Chen Ye's mind stirred, and he immediately realized that this power was forming a bond with his spirituality.

"Is there really such an ability as forming a bond with one's own spirit?"

This surprised Chen Ye somewhat.

After all, this kind of connection is not ordinary; rather, it tends to be a spiritual resonance.

To achieve resonance, one needs to be spiritually aligned.

It triggers the essential spirituality, connects us, and thus achieves the entire process of resonance.

However, the spiritual resonance that Chen Ye achieved this time was very different. It directly connected with him at the essential level, thus inputting Chen Ye's spirituality into the connection like code.

This spirituality, no matter what disguise it may be, will reveal its true spiritual fluctuations under the scrutiny of this scepter.

"The so-called spirituality, each person's spirituality is unique, and this is the medium for spiritual resonance."

"This instrument is actually able to completely capture the resonance medium of the spirit, thereby confirming specific identity information."

"Therefore, under the detection of this instrument, even if the face is partially disguised, it will be identified."

With just one glance, Chen Ye knew exactly what principles this device for capturing spirituality worked on.

I was quite surprised.

after all,

Spiritual mediums that can operate in this form are still very rare.

This indicates that Sky City possesses extremely advanced laws governing the use of spirits, which is why it was able to develop such an instrument as if it were a high-tech product.

At this moment.

Chen Ye walked towards the instrument.

As the instrument completed a thorough examination of Chen Ye, a unique spiritual medium belonging to Chen Ye was recorded and resonated with the crystal ball at the top of the scepter.

"That's fine, there's no problem with your identity."

The arbitrator nodded, indicating that Chen Ye could go over.

"Well done!"

Jiufeng clenched her little fists to cheer Chen Ye on.

Chen Ye smiled slightly, crossed the Heavenly Gate, and then looked at the sea of ​​clouds in the distance.

"The interior of the sacred mountain is actually surrounded by clouds and mist, and it looks so ethereal and dreamlike, like a fairyland."

From the height of Tianmen, one can overlook a vast area inside the sacred mountain.

Golden scales are scattered throughout the space, endless golden patterns, like a floating sea of ​​light, suspended in every corner of this world. Everywhere you look, it is a remarkable sight.

After a short while, Jiufeng also passed the security check and came to Chen Ye's side.

However, her mind was not on the scenery on the first floor. Instead, she looked at Wan Yi behind her and became worried about him.

"I should be able to get through this smoothly, right? Even though I offended those guys at the Foundation, Wan Yi still has the support of the council. At least Gemstone Elder is on Wan Yi's side. There shouldn't be any problem with passing this test."

Following closely behind Jiu Feng was Wan Yi.

at this time.

Wan Yi walked over from the back of the group.

He looked completely relaxed, as if he hadn't been targeted by the Foundation at all.

Walk with your head held high and chest out.

Without batting an eye, he walked towards the direction the arbitrators were testing.

at this time.

As several arbitrators, wielding their scepters, scanned WanYi...

A green glow appeared successfully.

Seeing this, Jiu Feng's anxious heart finally found some peace, and she couldn't help but smile knowingly.
"It seems that the arbitrators' team is quite fair. Even though Wan Yi has occupied those territories, these territories did not belong to the Foundation before, but to Wan Yi."

Chen Ye asked curiously, "Wasn't Wan Yi expelled from the entire Sky City before? Why would he encounter something like this?"

Jiufeng shook her head and smiled:
"After all, Wan Yi's personality is rather arrogant and fierce, and he doesn't submit to anyone."

"It just so happened that at that time, we offended the foundation, and the foundation used some publicity methods to portray Wan Yi as someone who didn't know what was good for him."

"Then the Myriad Thoughts Strike was carried out, which means that everyone in Sky City used a single thought to expel Wan Yi."

"This kind of expulsion only happens once every few years. It's only when a high-level, powerful force determines that someone is no longer suitable to stay in Sky City that such a large-scale trial is conducted." "Actually, this system is unreasonable no matter how you look at it. After all, if someone has the ability to come to Sky City, they should be able to stay here. How can they be expelled so easily?"

Chen Ye found everything Jiu Feng said to be quite agreeable.

Indeed, being able to reach Sky City is no easy feat in itself.

Come to think of it...

For most beings in the spirit world, Sky City is a good place.

This place is teeming with powerful individuals, and its vibrant local atmosphere is quite rich, making it seem like you can buy anything here.

and.

The food here is quite unique, though it can't compare to Chengxin Restaurant, but the food is very beneficial to your health.

Compared to the bizarre array of food from the bizarre era...

It's absolutely heaven!
Of course.

The basic rule for spending in Sky City is that you have to use gold coins.

It's fair to say that the goods here are quite expensive; it's not a simple matter.

If there are no gold coins...

Then we'll have to see if there's any spiritual energy in them.

The so-called "spiritual charm" is a type of jade that is born from the gathering of spiritual energy, and it has a high value in the market.

One gold coin can be exchanged for approximately one thousand spirit essences.

and so.

There are many ways to create spiritual essence, and Chen Ye can even use his own destiny energy to create corresponding spiritual essence.

At this moment, Wan Yi's figure passed through the Heavenly Gate behind him and came to Chen Ye and Jiu Feng's side.

Followed by.

The figures of Daoist Yuxu and Daoist Dongxu also came over.

"This is a great place. I haven't been here in a long time. I didn't expect it to be exactly the same as before."

As the Taoist Yuxu gazed at the distant scenery, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"That's normal. This is a sacred mountain. Most of the buildings are fixed and cannot be changed at all. It's a good thing that there are no changes!"

Daoist Dongxu walked at the front of the group, waved to Chen Ye and the others behind him, and said:
“Come on, let’s go take a look at the Lotus Pond first. It’s a treasure land suitable for enlightenment, and there’s also a treasure pond that can continuously produce lotus jade liquid. It’s located there. We can drink some water first, and then we can move around.”

Everyone nodded.

Wan Yi agreed, saying, "Lotus Pond is indeed a good place, but it's still quite a distance from here."

Chen Ye found that walking in this place did not consume much energy. After all, the laws binding the Holy Mountain only increased the burden. It was difficult to go up, but walking on flat ground or going down was quite easy.

Therefore, in the eyes of all the beings in the Sky City, climbing the Holy Mountain is no different from ascending to heaven.

The first step of the sacred mountain corresponds to the first flat area.

It's like a giant platform supporting the entire first floor.

However, when you come up from below, all you encounter is a very large staircase.

Even if it's just a staircase, it's only a very small part of the sacred mountain.

The flat land here is incredibly vast; just traversing this area is no easy feat.

We walked a distance.

The magnificent buildings on the sacred mountain seemed incredibly novel to Chen Ye.

These buildings were all exceptionally tall. The towering domes between the palace complexes supported the enormous palaces. Most of them contained statues of gods, and the outer courtyards were mostly built with artificial hills and water features, resembling the scale of a traditional courtyard. The stone walls on the side were carved with countless images of dragons, snakes, and beasts. These creatures all looked incredibly strange, and there were also some images of light spirits, which Chen Ye had never seen before.

"Wan Yi, where can we find any Light Spirits?" Chen Ye asked.

"Not so fast yet. There won't be any trace of light spirits on the first step. Even if there are, they will be very few."

"You have to go to at least the second step. The third and fourth steps are where you can more commonly see spirits."

"Going further... due to the many restrictions imposed by the laws there, it's not easy for light spirits to survive in such a high area, so it's not that simple."

Wan Yi explained.

Chen Ye nodded, and said from the bottom of his heart, "It seems that seeing the Light Spirit is not an easy thing!"

at this time.

A Divine Martial Academy appeared before them.

The so-called Divine Martial Academy is also an open gate, connecting to a flat area behind it.

This flat area was shrouded in mist, with huge pillars standing beside it, engraved with ancient inscriptions.

"You old fool, the Dharma form you've comprehended recently has become quite powerful!"

"Hmph, don't think that just because this is the Divine Martial Academy, your Dharma form is of much use. Here, force reigns supreme!"

"So you're saying we're going to fight?"

"So what if I am? Don't you have the guts?"

"Fine! Let's fight then. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"

Upon arriving at the courtyard of the Divine Martial Academy, a cacophony of shouts and cheers immediately arose from all directions.

Several figures were seen intertwined and fighting each other!

The shadows collided, erupting in a fierce burst of fire.

Ancient characters coalesced around them, transforming into flames and ice that intertwined in the sky. The light from their battle even struck nearby stone pillars, creating a violent shockwave.

However, these stone pillars remained completely unmoved.

No matter what kind of attack it is, it seems to sink into the sea and has no effect whatsoever when it hits these stone pillars.

Chen Ye was somewhat surprised to see this, and quickly looked at the Jade Void Daoist beside him, asking:
"Isn't fighting generally prohibited in the area of ​​the Holy Mountain? Why are they allowed to fight in this area?"

Upon hearing Chen Ye's words, Daoist Yuxu pointed to the plaque of the Divine Martial Academy above and explained:

"Look, this is the Divine Martial Academy. There are several Divine Martial Academies located throughout the entire Holy Mountain."

"Fighting is not prohibited in any place marked as Shenwu Academy. This is a very special place."

"Do you see those pillars?"

"No matter how powerful the attack, it will disappear completely when it hits those pillars. Even those lunatics in the council can't do anything about this place."

"It is precisely because of these pillars that attacks from the surrounding area are blocked, making it less likely for them to affect others, that fighting is permitted." (End of Chapter)
