Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert
Chapter 608 Desert Trip
Finally, they came to a spacious and bright hall. In the hall, a burly man with a full beard was sitting in the main seat, and beside him stood several monks with stern expressions and extraordinary temperaments.
Zhao Kang stepped forward and said respectfully, "Captain, this is Jiang Qiong, who has just joined my patrol team. He has extraordinary skills and will definitely add a powerful force to my patrol team."
The big man stood up, looked at Jiang Qiong with sharp eyes, then laughed and said:
"Good boy, you look energetic and full of energy. Welcome to join my Sky City Patrol! I am Zhou Meng, the captain of the patrol team."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a monk next to him immediately understood and brought a brand new set of patrol uniforms. The clothes were embroidered with the unique logo of the Sky City. The material looked extremely special, and there was a faint spiritual energy flowing like silk thread, as if telling of its extraordinaryness.
Zhou Meng continued, "This is the patrol uniform. Wearing it means you become the guardian of the Sky City.
The patrol team has important responsibilities. They need to patrol various areas in the city carefully every day to maintain order and prevent foreign invasion and disruption by lawless elements.
Of course, the treatment is definitely not bad, with a monthly salary of 500 Lingshi, and if you perform well, there will be additional generous rewards. "
Jiang Qiong took the patrol uniform, felt the spiritual power coming from the clothes, and a strong sense of mission surged in his heart.
He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Captain. Jiang Qiong will do his best to live up to your trust and protect the Sky City."
Afterwards, Zhou Meng arranged a young monk named Li Yi to lead Jiang Qiong to familiarize himself with the patrol team's work flow and patrol routes in the city.
Li Yi looks to be in his early twenties, with a handsome face, a sunny smile, and a warm and cheerful personality, as if he exudes youthful vitality.
As soon as the two met, Li Yi took the initiative to extend his hand and said enthusiastically: "Brother Jiang, from now on we will be good brothers fighting side by side. If you have any questions, just ask me."
Jiang Qiong also smiled and shook his hand, and the two quickly became familiar with each other. "Brother Jiang, this Sky City may seem peaceful and tranquil, but in fact, it is full of undercurrents and dangers.
There are often people with ill intentions who try to sneak into the city to steal the city’s treasures or find out its secrets.
The responsibility of our patrol team is as heavy as Mount Tai!" Li Yi introduced Jiang Qiong carefully while walking around the city.
They walked along a main street, where shops on both sides were full of dazzling array of goods, and people were coming and going, making the street very bustling.
From time to time, the laughter and bargaining of cultivators could be heard on the streets, interweaving into a unique melody of the market.
Jiang Qiong noticed that at the corner of the street, there was an inconspicuous tavern with a tattered wine flag hanging at the door of the tavern with the words "Lingyun Tavern" written on it.
The wine flag fluttered gently in the breeze, as if calling on passers-by. The tavern was filled with the aroma of rich wine, as well as the sounds of immortal cultivators chatting and clinking glasses, full of the breath of life.
“This Lingyun Tavern is a great place in our city. The spiritual wines in it are all carefully brewed by the owner, using a unique formula and craftsmanship.
Not only does it have a mellow and soft taste with endless aftertaste, it also has a certain auxiliary effect on cultivation, which can help us better concentrate spiritual power and improve the efficiency of cultivation. Many cultivators will come here to have a drink and relax after patrolling. "
Li Yi introduced with a smile, a hint of yearning in his eyes.
Then, they came to the west district of the city. The architectural style here is slightly different from other areas. There are mostly courtyard-style houses with exquisite layout and quiet environment.
Various magical flowers and herbs are planted around the house. They are colorful, of various shapes, and emit a faint fragrance, as if the entire area is enveloped in a dreamy sea of flowers.
At the entrance of a courtyard, a white-haired old man was sitting quietly on a stone bench with his eyes closed.
The old man was dressed in a simple black robe and had a thin figure, but he exuded a powerful and restrained aura, like a dormant volcano, containing endless power.
Li Yi said softly: "This is Mr. Chen, who has lived in the city for many years and is a respected senior.
His cultivation is unfathomable. It is said that he has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage and is only one step away from breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Stage.
Once you break through, your strength will change dramatically, and you will have a pivotal position in the entire cultivation world."
Jiang Qiong was secretly amazed in his heart. Being at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage was already an extremely powerful existence in the world of immortal cultivation. He was like a towering mountain that many immortal cultivators looked up to.
He couldn't help but feel more awe for this city in the sky. He didn't expect that there were so many masters hidden in the city, like a place where crouching tigers, hidden dragons and crouching tigers are hidden.
The two continued walking and came to a market area. The stalls here were densely packed with all kinds of goods, which was dazzling.
There are magic weapons that emit strange light, and some have runes flashing on their surfaces, which seem to tell of their extraordinary origins;
There are pills that emit a strong medicinal fragrance, and the color of the pills is mellow, and you can tell at a glance that they are of high quality;
There are spiritual plants of various shapes and full of vitality, with crystal dewdrops sparkling on the leaves of the spiritual plants, as if they contain endless vitality;
There are also beautifully drawn talismans with smooth rune lines, containing powerful spiritual fluctuations.
The stall owners were enthusiastically soliciting customers, and their voices were heard one after another. The cultivators were carefully selecting their favorite items in front of the stalls, and the sound of bargaining was endless.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise like thunder out of nowhere.
Jiang Qiong and Li Yi looked in the direction of the sound and saw a stall surrounded by people. The crowd was like an impenetrable wall, surrounding the stall in the middle.
A young stall owner was arguing with a tall, fleshy monk. Their voices intertwined and were filled with tension.
"You are clearly forcing me to buy and sell! This pill is not worth the price you mentioned. I won't sell it to you!"
The young stall owner's face was filled with anger, it turned red, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and he shouted loudly.
"Humph! In this city in the sky, you can't just decide not to sell it. You have to sell this pill today whether you want to or not!"
The monk with a face full of flesh said viciously, and at the same time a powerful and overbearing spiritual energy wave emanated from his body, pressing towards the young stall owner like a surging tide, trying to force him into submission with his momentum.
The people around showed dissatisfaction and frowned, but they were intimidated by the powerful strength of the monk with a face full of flesh, so they dared not say anything and could only talk in a low voice.
Seeing this, Jiang Qiong frowned, a sense of justice arose in his heart, and he was about to step forward to stop it.
Li Yi was quick to pull him back and said:
"Brother Jiang, don't be anxious. Let's take a look at the situation first. Maybe there will be a turning point." At this moment, a woman in gorgeous clothes walked out of the crowd.
The woman had a beautiful face, skin as white as snow, eyes like a clear lake, and a cold look, as if she were a fairy who was not of this world.
She said softly, "Brother, I'm afraid this kind of forced buying and selling is against the rules of our Sky City."
The voice was clear and pleasant, like a mountain spring, yet it carried a hint of unquestionable majesty.
The monk with a face full of flesh turned his head to look at the woman, a flash of surprise in his eyes, but then he snorted coldly: "Humph, who are you? Mind your own business! Don't think you can interfere in my affairs just because you are beautiful."
The woman frowned slightly, and a powerful icy air instantly emanated from her body, as if freezing the surrounding space, and the temperature suddenly dropped several degrees.
The people around shuddered and took a few steps back unconsciously.
"I am Su Yao, a disciple of Bingyue Palace. I will take care of today's matter."
The words were concise and powerful, revealing a firm determination.
Hearing the three words "Ice Moon Palace", the fleshy-faced monk's expression changed slightly, like an eggplant hit by frost.
The Bingyue Palace is also an extremely powerful sect in the world of immortal cultivation, with a profound foundation and many masters. Although he has some strength, he does not dare to offend it easily.
After hesitating for a moment, he glared at the young stall owner and said, "You're lucky! I'll let you go today, but it won't be so easy next time."
After saying that, he turned around, squeezed out of the crowd, left in a hurry in dejection, and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The young stall owner quickly thanked Su Yao, his eyes full of gratitude:
"Thank you for your help, Fairy. If it weren't for you, I would be in big trouble today. This pill means a lot to me, and I must not let him buy it by force."
Su Yao nodded slightly, with a faint smile on her face, and said:
"You're welcome. Maintaining fairness and justice is the responsibility of immortal cultivators like us. In this sky city, everyone should abide by the rules and not act recklessly."
After saying that, she turned and looked at Jiang Qiong and Li Yi. Her gaze stayed on Jiang Qiong for a moment, as if she was a little curious about him. Then she bowed slightly and disappeared lightly into the crowd, like a petal drifting in the wind.
Li Yi smiled and said to Jiang Qiong, "This fairy Su Yao is the best among the younger generation of Bingyue Palace. Not only is she highly skilled in cultivation and extremely powerful, but she is also kind-hearted and generous. She often fights for justice in the city and helps the weak, and is very respected by everyone. In this sky city, she is the idol of many young cultivators."
Jiang Qiong nodded, and felt a little more admiration for Su Yao.
After this incident, Jiang Qiong gained a deeper understanding of the complex situation of the Sky City.
Although this place is home to many immortal cultivators and looks prosperous and lively, like a paradise on earth, it also hides various contradictions and disputes, like undercurrents surging under the calm surface of a lake, which may cause a storm at any time. As night falls, the Sky City gradually becomes quiet.
The night pearls on the city wall emit a soft and warm light, like stars falling on the earth, illuminating the entire city.
Jiang Qiong and Li Yi finished a day's patrol mission and returned to the patrol base, dragging their slightly tired but fulfilled bodies.
The lights in the station were bright, and some of the other patrol members were resting, while others were discussing the day's patrol situation.
Jiang Qiong lay on the bed, thinking back over what she had seen and heard that day in the Sky City, feeling filled with emotion.
He knew very well that his journey in the world of immortal cultivation had just begun, and this city in the sky might just be a small stop on his long road of immortal cultivation.
But he believed that the experience here would become his precious wealth, like the bright stars, illuminating his way forward on the path of cultivating immortals.
The next morning, the first ray of sunlight sprinkled on the city in the sky like golden threads, covering this mysterious city with a gorgeous coat.
Jiang Qiong got up early, full of energy, and put on the patrol uniform that symbolized the guardian of the Sky City. The clothes gleamed in the sun, as if reminding him of the heavy responsibility he shouldered.
He walked out of the base and met up with other patrol members. All of them were in high spirits, with determination and concentration in their eyes.
Then, under the leadership of Captain Zhou Meng, they marched towards various areas of the city in an orderly manner and began a new day of patrol work. What kind of people and things will they encounter this time?
Jiang Qiong was full of anticipation, as if there were countless wonderful stories waiting for him to write. During his patrol, Jiang Qiong met an old man selling talismans.
The talismans on the old man's stall are of various kinds, dazzling and varied. There are offensive ones, with runes like burning flames, as if they can burst out with powerful attack power at any time;
There are defensive ones, where the runes are like solid shields, giving people a sense of indestructibility;
There are also runes that assist in cultivation. They glow with a soft light and seem to guide the flow of spiritual energy, helping with cultivation.
Jiang Qiong has always been interested in talismans and has studied some of the techniques of talismans in his daily life. So he stopped and started chatting with the old man with respect.
"Old man, your talisman looks quite extraordinary. The craftsmanship is exquisite and the runes are lively. I wonder where it came from?"
Jiang Qiong asked politely, his eyes full of curiosity. The old man raised his head and glanced at Jiang Qiong, his eyes showing a trace of relief, and said with a smile: "My friend, you have a good eye. These talismans were all drawn by me personally.
I have been studying the art of talismans for decades. Every talisman contains my hard work and my understanding of the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
Each rune must be drawn at a specific time and injected with specific spiritual power in order to exert its maximum power.
"Jiang Qiong picked up an offensive talisman and observed it carefully. The rune lines on the talisman were smooth and natural, like a smart dragon, emitting a faint spiritual power fluctuation, as if telling of its extraordinaryness.
He was moved and said, "Old man, I want to buy this talisman. How many spirit stones does it cost?"
The old man held up three fingers and said slowly, "Three hundred spirit stones. The production process of this talisman is complicated and the materials are rare. This price is very fair."
Jiang Qiong frowned slightly, thinking to himself that although the price was not outrageous, it was indeed not low.
He stroked the talisman in his hand, feeling the faint spiritual power on it, trying to find a flaw in it to lower the price. (End of this chapter)
