Chapter 828 The 'City of Immortals'
”Although you are still a middle rank 9 Dao Emperor, if I’m not wrong, your current strength is probably not much inferior even when it’s compared to Kang Wen from the Holy sect.
As long as you and I travel together, then unless we are really unlucky and are forced to fight one of those unrivaled monsters from the top powers of the central region, we should be able to stay alive at the very least.”
Quan Lin had a solemn look in his eyes as he stared at Jiang Tianfang while he waited for his answer.
Of course, it was no wonder that Jiang Tianfang wouldn’t know much about the ‘City of Immortals’. After all, the ‘City of Immortals’ had only opened twice in the history of the central region, and Jiang Tianfang wasn’t even born during that time.
Even though he came from one of the strongest clans in the northern part of the central region, the Jiang clan, Jiang Tianfang was no longer part of the clan and had spent the past few years visiting numerous star-rank alchemists in the central region as he tried to find ways to cure himself.
This was why, even if the Jiang clan knew anything about the ‘City of Immortals’, Jiang Tianfang still wouldn’t be aware of it since he was no longer part of the clan.
”Enter the ‘City of Immortals’ huh…” Jiang Tianfang mumbled to himself with a serious look on his face, before he turned his gaze towards Jiang Chen and the others who were waiting for his answer.
Jiang Tianfang’s gaze lingered on Shun Long and Jiang Chen for a few more moments, before he turned his attention towards Quan Lin and nodded his head as he said seriously
”Alright. Let’s go together then!”
Quan Lin wasn’t surprised by Jiang Tianfang’s answer since he had already expected this, as he simply nodded his head calmly.
Practically every single late-stage Dao Emperor would look to enter the ‘City of Immortals’ now that it had opened, and one would truly have to be a fool to pass on this chance despite the dangers it entailed.
After all, there were rumors that in the past, people had even found immortal-grade cultivation techniques and martial skills, as well as rank 8 and rank 9 medicinal herbs.
For those Dao Emperors who were stranded on the peak of rank 9 in the Dao Emperor realm for so long, either of those treasures would be enough to allow them to reach the Sovereign realm, and were thus worth risking their lives for!
At the same time, Jiang Chen didn’t say anything to try and dissuade his father, and simply stared at him with a serious look in his eyes.
Even though there were definitely countless dangers that he would have to face inside, Jiang Chen knew that Jiang Tianfang would do anything he could to get stronger and ascend to the ‘Immortal Dimension’ in the future, even if that meant jumping to the depths of hell in the process.
After all, the humiliation of having his dantian nearly crippled by the Elder of the Yu family was still fresh in Jiang Tianfang’s mind and wasn’t something that he could simply forget.
Sitting on the ‘Purple-scaled desert worm’s’ back, Jiang Tianfang looked at Quan Lin and asked curiously
”Quan Lin, what else do you know about the ‘City of Immortals’?”
Since Jiang Tianfang had already agreed to travel with him, Quan Lin didn’t hide anything from him, as he nodded his head and said calmly
”I will tell you what I learned from the city lord, but the truth is that even I don’t know too much about the ‘City of Immortals’, since that place is too mysterious.
Even the city lord was only willing to reveal just a few things about that place and told me to be extremely careful.
Actually, according to the information I got from the city lord, the ‘City of Immortals’ isn’t just a single city, but it’s a separate world instead.
There are countless dangers inside that world, enough to kill even the strongest Dao Kings and Dao Emperors.
Other than the powerful magic beasts that are roaming in the wild, there are plenty of cities that are filled with countless treasures, but according to what the city lord told me, each of those cities is built with the blood of countless Dao Kings and Dao Emperors while the treasures inside them are extremely hard to obtain.
The city lord also said that one can’t bring any offensive or defensive treasures inside the ‘City of Immortals’ other than star-rank weapons and armor.
As for the actual origins of the ‘City of Immortals’, the city lord guessed that even the experts of the Tianxuan dynasty probably don’t know the truth behind it.”
”A separate world?” Jiang Tianfang was taken aback when he heard Quan Lin’s description of the ‘City of Immortals’.
After all, there were quite a few secret realms spread across the central region, many of whom were much bigger than Cui Guoliang’s ‘Vermilion realm’ back in the ‘Desolate East’, and yet, none of those secret realms qualified to be called a separate world!
To be called a separate world… how massive did that place have to be and how many secrets did it truly hide?
At the same time, Liu Mei seemed to have suddenly realized something, as she turned her eyes towards the small pendant that she was wearing on her neck. If no offensive or defensive treasures were allowed inside, this meant that most likely, Liu Mei wouldn’t be able to use this pendant that she had gotten from her master.
While Quan Lin explained everything he knew about the ‘City of Immortals’ to Shun Long and the others, time continued to pass, and in the blink of an eye, 3 days quickly went by since their group had left Luoyang city on the ‘Purple-scaled desert worm’s’ back.
