The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 325 Guardian Spirit Beast
Hearing this, Wang Wu didn't say anything more. He got up, pushed open the door, and left. Don't talk about believing or not believing. That lunatic Wu Du might be passionately enthusiastic towards you one moment, and then he might pierce your heart with a thousand arrows the next!

Besides, continuing this entanglement wouldn't be in Yue Shan's style.

Wudu didn't try to stop him any further, but shouted from behind, "Senior brother, don't forget to go find Chen Damao and claim the profits that belong to you over the past fifty years!"

Wang Wu didn't look back, quickly flew away from the town on his sword, heading straight for the huge port city in the far south.

He did want to kill the Five Poisons, but his real purpose for this trip was to gather resources.

He also learned this from the brand on the fire sword.

As one of Lu Wuchen's personal disciples, Yue Shan has shares in this Xuan Tie Mine port. As for cultivation resources, how could Lu Wuchen's personal disciple lack them?

Lu Wuchen is not short of money!

They flew along, not very fast, in fact, they couldn't go very fast. Damn, that Five Poisons is a monster, full of hidden lightning, specifically designed to counter escape techniques and sword control.

More than an hour later, Wang Wu finally arrived outside the port city. At this moment, he was truly relieved. The Thirty-Six Transformations of Earthly Fiends that he had formed based on the Five Elements Spirit Array and the Great Circulation of the Heavenly Qi were indeed able to withstand the test.

The city's defensive array had no problem scanning and detecting him.

He is Yueshan, and Yueshan is him.

Then, Wang Wu put away his natal flying sword, registered with the city's garrison, had his jade talisman checked, and tested his Ice and Fire Spirit Pill. Even his natal flying sword had to be specially recorded, and everything had to match the last registration.

Finally, based on his status, the guards respectfully presented him with a flying magic weapon, which could only be used within the city and would be ineffective outside the city gates. It was made from a peacock feather and could be activated with spiritual energy. He could either stand on it with his feet or turn it into wings to fly like a bird.

You can also transform it into a peacock, becoming a peacock knight.

If you don't want that, there are other options, such as tiger riders, wolf riders, dragon riders, pig riders, dog riders, cat riders...

If you want to, none of these are problems.

The human race is truly incredibly wealthy.

So Wang Wu was quite looking forward to it.

He then chose the foot-based mode and leisurely flew into the city. The city streets were wide and unobstructed, with fortress-like buildings rising up in all shapes and sizes, but no matter what he did, he could not see the inside of them. Each building was connected to the city's protective formation, and could cooperate closely with the city's defenses at any time.

They're truly armed to the teeth.

As for scenery and landscapes, that's all nonsense. It's not that we don't need them, but they're all inside the buildings. Each building is a manor, and you can have any scenery you want inside. We won't let outsiders see a single clue.

In addition, all buildings are arranged according to the grand formation, and only three to five buildings are needed to form a self-contained unit with its own variations.

So if a stranger enters the city, it is really easy for them to get lost.

Moreover, this getting lost was specially designed by the authorities. If you don't register or go to the corresponding area according to the registration, getting lost is the least of your worries. You will be directly trapped, imprisoned, tortured, or thrown into a mine to work as a miner.

Resistance? Protest?
nonexistent.

This is true of every major city controlled by the human race.

It can monitor you down to where you went each day, what you ate, your progress in cultivation, and the consumption of spiritual energy.

Even though Yue Shan, who was Wang Wu's incarnation, had the highest level of authority, the Heavenly Evolution Array still tracked, located, and analyzed him in real time. Once it was discovered that he had any behavior or intention that was detrimental to the city's security, the corresponding security measures would be activated immediately!

As for how much it would cost to do this?
It doesn't really matter, because ordinary people don't even have the chance to get within 500 miles of this great city. Oh no, no human cultivator below the sixth rank is allowed to get close, let alone enter the city, unless someone vouches for them or they become part of the city's defense force.

Forget about taking advantage of troubled waters or living a life of seclusion in the city; sorry, that doesn't exist in that environment.

We should eliminate all these destabilizing factors directly at their root.

"It feels like, in essence, that the sects of cultivation schools have been moved to the city. However, the sects of human cultivators are not prominent, and there are more alliances. The social organizational structure is obviously more efficient than the sect system."

As Wang Wu observed, he pondered in his heart, just like Lu Wuchen, who was the city lord of Yunding City, the leader of the Nine Cities Alliance, and one of the nine deputy leaders of the Immortal Alliance.

Among his personal disciples, some are city lords and others are alliance leaders.

Some, like the Five Poisons, are not only the leaders of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, but also the city lords of this port city, the leaders of the entire West Coast Xuan Tie Alliance, and Lu Wuchen's representatives here...

As for the so-called Xuan Tie Alliance, it is of course the iron ore shares invested here by various bigwigs.

As for Yue Shan, he is the lord of a giant city, the leader of the Snow Mountain Alliance, and also Lu Wuchen's representative in the Great Snow Mountain.

"It feels a bit like a combination of a trust and a powerful family!"

"Family clans cultivate their scions. As long as they can advance to the first rank of the Heavenly Realm, they are qualified to sit at the table and eat. Initially, they may join a certain force and take a share. You take one share, I take one share, and so on. This leads to alliances of all sizes. These alliances will expand outwards, conquer a place, build a giant city, and then there will be a city lord. After that, it's like a snowball rolling downhill, constantly expanding and developing, forming a true behemoth in the cultivation world."

"In front of such a behemoth in the cultivation world, ordinary cultivators are nothing but ants, let alone demons."

"The Immortal Alliance should be the only behemoth, and the secrets of the human race are probably hidden within the Immortal Alliance."

Wang Wu couldn't help but think of the patch of blue sky he had seen earlier; it was definitely just an ordinary blue sky. It wasn't the celestial realm; the outside world wasn't the celestial realm.

Perhaps most humans don't know this secret, but the Immortal Alliance, especially its core members, definitely do.

Wang Wu also remembered what Grandpa Tree had said.

In the beginning, this world only had monsters, then spirits appeared, then demons appeared, and then one day, suddenly, humans arrived.

He didn't think much of it at the time, but looking back now, it seems more like they were being released in batches.

What is the purpose?

It doesn't resemble a nature reserve, nor does it seem like an isolated island for exiling prisoners; rather, it's more like a social experiment.

Well, from Earthlings' perspective, this is a kind of social experiment: first, some lives are thrown into a sealed space, and then more are thrown in.

However, the forces behind the Immortal Alliance wouldn't be so bored, so it must be because they have deep-seated interests.

"In short, this is definitely not the real world of cultivation! In the real world of cultivation, it is impossible for someone to be unable to refine a fifth-grade Five Elements Spirit Pill, or for someone to be unable to refine a fourth-grade Heavenly natal demon weapon or natal flying sword."

"Unfortunately, the information I have now is still too little. Even Grandpa Tree is trying his best to find out the terrible truth but to no avail."

Wang Wu sighed inwardly. Seeing a building appear ahead, he cleared his mind and quickly stepped forward. Outside the ugly and grotesque building, several people were already waiting.

The city's defenses were notified the moment he registered upon entering the city.

"This old servant, Chen Damao, pays his respects to Young Master Shan!"

An old man with a chubby body but a weasel-like head trotted forward and immediately bowed deeply in worship.

This is a rat demon, and a rare ancient blood spirit rat at that. It is also a guardian spirit beast.

Becoming a guardian spirit beast is the ultimate dream for all spirit beasts. Once you become a guardian spirit beast, even a tyrannical and monstrous creature like the Five Poisons will give you some face.

Because this is a true, loyal old servant!
It is more loyal to its master and to the property it protects than to itself.

These guardian spirit beasts are generally very powerful. For example, Chen Damao was only a second-grade spirit beast the last time I saw him, but this time he has actually broken through to the first grade.

It was Lu Wuchen's companion spirit beast when he was young, and it has been tested over time and is extremely loyal.

"Uncle Chen, you look great. Have you had something happy happen to you lately?"

Wang Wu casually put his arm around Chen Damao's shoulder, showing great affection.

In Huo Jian's memory, this guardian spirit beast was Lu Wuchen's chief steward. As his personal disciple, he was familiar with it and respected it to a certain extent.

"Haha, thank you for your kind words, Young Master Shan. What makes this old servant happy is to see Young Master Shan emerge from seclusion. Oh my, just a few days ago I was communicating with Songpizi from afar, and it said that Young Master Shan was still in seclusion. And yet you've come all this way today. Young people are so energetic and energetic. This old servant is truly envious. Even just to bask in your youthful vigor would make this old servant feel hundreds of years younger."

Wang Wu smiled at the right moment, "If only Old Pine could be like Uncle Chen. To be honest, I really envy my junior brother. Master assigned Uncle Chen to him, but assigned Old Pine to me. So I'm the only one who's easy to bully?"

"Young Master Shan, what are you saying? I wouldn't dare to speak ill of the Master. Speaking of which, did you manage to repair your natal flying sword this time you came out of seclusion?"

“That’s right, Uncle Chen is an expert in appraising food. Please take a look and give me your opinion.”

As Wang Wu spoke, he activated the longsword behind him. This was also a checkpoint. Even though Yue Shan was Lu Wuchen's personal disciple, he had to verify his identity to enter the large warehouse in front of him.

The meticulousness and precision of these processes are simply outrageous.

If Wang Wu didn't have enough ability, he really wouldn't have been able to deceive everyone.

At this moment, Chen Damao took the flying sword, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed it whole. Yes, it seemed to be a gold-devouring spirit rat, a very rare monster.

That's why he was able to become the general manager of the Xuan Tie Mine; he really had some skills.

However, Wang Wu is even more awesome.

At this moment, he was Yue Shan himself, and unless Lu Wuchen came, no one could possibly see through his disguise.

Sure enough, a moment later, Chen Damao returned the flying sword with high praise, "Young Master Shan has truly made great progress during this seclusion. The quality of this reforged flying sword is even better than before. Young Master Shan, please!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Damao waved his hand, and although Wang Wu didn't move, he was already inside the warehouse.

However, there was nothing glittering here, just a small counter with an ordinary ledger on it.

The moment Chen Damao sat down behind the counter, his entire demeanor changed. A first-rank demon, capable of managing a major mineral depository, was definitely no ordinary being.

"Young Master Shan, it's the same old routine. You've been in seclusion for the past fifty years, and you have a 1% stake in this place. Based on the returns, you'll receive fifty million dou of spiritual energy. Would you like the refined hundredfold spiritual liquid, or some other treasure?"
