Chapter 747: Chapter 747
"Taoist Friend Wang, we have teleported from the Divine Weapon Marketplace to support the frontline."
Wang Lian asked, as he had already advanced to the Refinement Void Phase.
"Once you step out of the Transference Hall, someone will be responsible for registering your details and arranging accommodations for you."
The golden-robed youth pointed towards the exit as he spoke.
Wang Lian thanked him and then led Shen Long and the others out.
Exiting the grand hall, they saw a vast Azure Stone Plaza, where seven long cyan-colored wooden tables were set up, each with two Cultivators standing behind them.
Li Yunpeng and dozens of others were standing not far away, chatting leisurely.
"Senior Brother He, Senior Sister Wu,"
Xu Xiao called out in greeting; he had teleported to Tianxuan City earlier than Shen Long.
"Junior Brother Xu, where are the others?"
He Zixiao asked curiously.
"They’ve gone to Qianling Garden. We Qianling Sect disciples all reside there. You should register first! This line is for Qianling Sect disciples to register,"
Xu Xiao pointed to a queue and explained that it was exclusively for disciples from the Qianling Sect.
Shen Long, Chu Buyu, and other Qianling Sect disciples joined the queue to register.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Shen Long reached the front of the line, where a young man with well-proportioned features, dressed in cyan, sat behind one of the cyan wooden tables, handling the registration.
"Senior, how may I address you? What is your cultivation level, and do you have any special skills? This information will help us assign tasks."
The cyan-robed youth inquired.
"Shen Long, middle stage of Void Refinement, sixth-rank Alchemist. I can refine top-grade Elixirs,"
Shen Long replied truthfully.
The cyan-robed youth held a golden Law Disk in his left hand and a silver jade pen in his right, making deft strokes with it.
After a while, he produced a round, cyan identity token and placed it on the golden Law Disk.
The golden Law Disk emitted a dazzling golden light that enveloped the cyan identity token.
"Senior Shen, please drop a drop of your essence blood onto the identity token to activate it. Killing enemies will earn you Kind Attribute points, as will Alchemy. In Tianxuan City, this will serve as your identity token. Please keep it safe,"
the cyan-robed youth politely said, handing the token to Shen Long.
Shen Long glanced at the token and saw the words "Qianling Sect Shen Long" newly inscribed on the front.
He bit his right index finger and let a drop of essence blood fall onto the token. The blood merged with the token, which then shined with a burst of Spiritual Light.
"Senior Shen, you have activated your identity token. You may rest for now. If there are any tasks, we will notify you through the identity token, which also functions as a Messaging Plate,"
the cyan-robed youth explained.
Shen Long nodded and stepped aside.
It wasn’t long before Chu Buyu had also completed his registration.
Xu Xiao asked two Soul Transformation Cultivators to lead Shen Long and the others to Qianling Garden. The streets were spacious and clean, teeming with Cultivators moving about.
Shen Long saw many Heterodox Cultivators. These were ones who had alliances with the Human Clan, which allowed them to be here.
On both sides of the street, tall and imposing buildings bustled with Cultivators going in and out.
An hour later, they arrived at the entrance to a vast estate. The signboard read "Qianling Garden," and two Nascent Soul Cultivators stood guard at the gate.
The Qianling Sect had also dispatched some Nascent Soul Cultivators to perform errands and such tasks.
Shen Long and the others entered Qianling Garden, admiring the pavilions, towers, and long corridors arrayed around water features.
There were many separate courtyards within the garden, with Shen Long and Chu Buyu’s accommodations being in the Golden Roc Courtyard—of course, the names of these compounds were temporary.
The courtyard contained a three-story golden pavilion and a blue stone pavilion; the golden pavilion had a plaque with the words "Golden Roc Pavilion" inscribed in silver.
"Madam, let’s go out for a stroll! They probably won’t assign us any tasks in the short term,"
Chu Buyu nodded, "I think so too. There are many cultivators gathered here, including high-level cultivators from major forces, which should make trading resources somewhat easier."
Shen Long and Chu Buyu went out and started wandering the streets casually.
Along the way, they saw plenty of shops run by exotic races.
As they passed an intersection, Ni Tianting and a brawny man in a golden shirt approached them from the opposite direction.
"Taoist Friend Shen, Madam Shen, long time no see. Are you here to participate in the racial war too?"
Ni Tianting greeted them.
"Yes, what a coincidence! Taoist Friend Ni, who is this gentleman?"
Shen Long’s gaze fell on the man in the golden shirt.
said the man in the golden shirt with a bow, his tone somewhat cold.
"Taoist Friend Shen, Taoist Friend Mu is always , don’t take it to heart,"
explained Ni Tianting.
"No worries, it’s our first meeting, so I understand,"
said Shen Long with a slight smile.
"By the way, we’re staying in Donghua Garden. If you’re free, you can come to Donghua Garden to find us,"
Shen Long nodded, agreeing to the suggestion, and after a brief chat, Ni Tianting and Mu Xiao left.
Shen Long and Chu Buyu continued to wander around Tianxuan City. They had visited many marketplaces, but they were no match for Tianxuan City.
Take the Divine Weapon Marketplace, for example: Tianxuan City was a hundred thousand times larger and one of the seven great cities of the Human Clan on the Green Lotus Continent that defended against the exotic races.
Tianxuan City permanently housed more than ten Unity cultivators, with over a hundred million cultivators from dozens of races gathering here, and it was rich in cultivation resources, attracting numerous merchants.
Many elixir shops here sold top-grade elixirs, but they would only trade with high-grade spirit stones or cultivation resources, not with ordinary spirit stones.
They saw several puppet shops, and upon entering one, they found shelves full of puppet beasts. A shop named "Tiangong Pavilion" even accepted custom orders for sixth-tier puppet beasts, but the price was steep, requiring top-grade spirit stones or precious materials for payment.
After more than two hours, Shen Long and Chu Buyu stood in front of a nine-story golden pavilion with "Drunken Immortal Pavilion" grandly inscribed.
Many cultivators were coming in and out, and a rich aroma of wine wafted out from within the pavilion.
They stepped in, finding the hall spacious and well-lit, with numerous wine jars visible, and attendants in unified blue robes introducing Spiritual Wine to the guests.
Mostly Core Formation cultivators were in the main hall; they didn’t linger there for long, heading straight upstairs.
Upon reaching the sixth floor, they saw a refined man in golden clothing manipulating a glittering golden Law Disk, seemingly messaging someone.
Setting down the golden Law Disk, the man smiled and said, "I am Zhang Zhanyun, the shopkeeper of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. How may I address the two friends?"
"My surname is Shen. I heard your establishment sells seventh-tier spiritual wine, is that true?"
Shen Long asked, curious.
"Taoist Friend Shen must be talking about the Nine Elements Jade Brew, right? It can directly elevate cultivators below Mahayana up one minor realm. If you can provide the necessary items, I can sell you a jar,"
Zhang Zhanyun pulled out two golden jade slips and handed them to Shen Long and Chu Buyu.
"Nine Elements Jade Pear, seventh-tier Absorbing Thunder Pearl, Heavenly Dragon Fruit..."
Shen Long frowned; these items were rare treasures even for Unity cultivators, and he could not produce them.
