Killing God - Chapter 185

Chapter 185 Tianhong City
In the ninety provinces of Primordial Chaos City, this city was Tianhong City.

In the heart of the Primordial Chaos Master Realm, On the shore of the vast inland sea, With a city as a prefecture gathering the countless elites of the Primordial Chaos Realm, Tens of thousands of years ago, the Heavenly Yao Royal Court had already stood tall in the world. It had witnessed countless vicissitudes of life, countless flourishing romances, surging winds and clouds, and flowing blood. At that time, light had passed and the old man had gone. Only the greatest city in history was still standing there, quietly standing there.

This day was dusk.

The setting sun set in the west, reflecting a red sunset for a long time. It reflected on the azure inner sea water, refracting a magnificent and dazzling brilliance. It was dazzling to the eye, and the faint afterglow illuminated the vast seaside city from afar that could not be seen at a glance.

When the golden light lit up on the array island again, a huge golden light with an ancient aura erupted like a volcano. A group of people appeared in the ancient teleportation array that had experienced countless storms and snow.

Shen Shi and Du Tiejian said, Of course, there was also the inseparable Little Hei pig standing in the middle of the crowd. However, in the surroundings of the two of them, the others were intentionally or unintentionally a little far away from them. Most of the reason was because of Du Tiejian, such an arrogant bald man carrying the black iron sword, which gave off a feeling that it was not easy to provoke.

Although most of the cultivators who could ride the ancient teleportation array were also cultivators, it was better to do less than one thing to travel outside.

This ancient teleportation formation was a special passage connecting the Black River Realm and the Primordial Chaos Master Realm. When the golden light gradually dissipated and the surrounding aura stabilized, the crowd immediately dispersed. Shen Shi took a few steps outside and turned around to look around. He discovered that he was currently on a large island with a crescent moon shape. It was in the inner sea. Along the edge of the island, there was an ancient teleportation formation every few hundred feet. From afar, although there were some subtle differences, almost every formation was a large formation that covered an area of about twenty acres. Golden light flickered and flowed. It was the luster of a miraculous Golden Embryo Stone.

Even under their feet, the middle square formed by this large formation was actually shining with golden light. All of them were stone sockets made of golden embryonic stones. The golden embryonic stone sockets were made of golden embryonic stones, and the golden embryonic stone sockets were made of golden embryonic stones, and the golden embryonic stone sockets were made of golden embryonic stones.

The water was blue and clear, and waves of sand gently surged onto the edge of the formation island and slowly retreated. Sometimes, one couldn’t help but wonder, had this place always been like this for millions of years?

On the island square, As Shen Shi and the others walked out, they could occasionally see the golden light rising and falling in the ancient teleportation array around them, as if they were in a strange and fantastic place. Perhaps not long after, when the boundless aura rose again, another group of cultivators from another alien realm came here, heading towards the famous city not far away.

Yes, Tianhong City is not far away, or to be exact, in the sea outside the west side of Tianhong City, there is a long white bridge made of jade. It spans several miles of the sea and connects the island to the coast like a giant white dragon.

Du Tiejian led Shen Shi towards the long bridge across the sea. The bridge deck was extremely spacious, and it was actually dozens of feet long. Even if there were thousands of people traveling here, they wouldn’t feel particularly crowded. The relief paintings on the railings on both sides were lifelike. One could tell that it was the work of a master craftsman. It was as if the wind, frost, rain, and snow could not dissipate its power. In comparison, only the jade bridge decks under one’s feet were worn out. Perhaps because there were too many people passing by, wear marks could be seen everywhere.

The setting sun landed on the white jade bridge. The tides of the sea gently surged beneath the bridge. It was as beautiful as a painting, as if a person was in a painting.

Du Tiejian took Shen Shi to a railing and looked into the distance. The setting sun shone brightly and said, “Have you ever been to Tianhong City before?”

Shen Shi shook his head. While shocked by the magnificent scenery, he said honestly, “No, this is the first time I’ve come here.”

Du Tiejian smiled and pointed into the distance. At the end of the sea level, there was the setting sun and the bridge beside him. He said,

“Tianhong City is the number one city in the Primordial Chaos. The city is endlessly prosperous, and it is also famous for the ten scenes of Tianhong. This’ Dragon Bridge Setting Sun ‘is one of them.”

Shen Shi nodded. Looking at the beautiful scenery of the world, he couldn’t help but praise, “As expected, your reputation is well-deserved. It’s truly an eye-opener.”

Du Tiejian smiled and patted his shoulder. He continued walking forward with Shen Shi. At the same time, he said, “Back when I was young, when I first came here, I was almost in the same mood as you are now.”

As the two of them walked, the light on the Dragon Bridge rotated. Gradually, a majestic and vast city appeared at the end of the bridge.

Tianhong City, this city that carried countless glories and recorded endless romance and prosperity, appeared in Shen Shi’s eyes for the first time.

The first thing to come into view was the towering and magnificent city walls.

This was a city wall that Shen Shi had never seen in his entire life, even though he had seen it from scrolls of ancient books when he was young, it was still unimaginable.

Over a hundred zhang tall, spanning ten thousand miles.

These two words were written on all the scrolls when describing the walls of Tianhong City.

And now, at this moment, Shen Shi finally saw it. Then, like everyone who had arrived at Tianhong City for the first time, he was shocked by this incomparably spectacular city that had exceeded the limits of his imagination.

As they got closer and closer, the city gradually became clear in the afterglow of the setting sun. The huge azure-gray city wall pierced straight into the clouds and extended towards the surroundings. There was no end to it at a glance, as if it extended all the way to the end of this world.

The entire heavens and earth seemed to be divided into two halves by this giant wall. Half of the city was outside, and half of the city was inside.

Du Tiejian’s voice still echoed softly in Shen Shi’s ears. With a calm, lazy, and somewhat sighing voice, he casually told him about the famous magnificence of this famous city’s capital.

‘”That city wall was built tens of thousands of years ago by the Demon race of the Heavenly Yao Court. I wonder what method they used back then. In short, it is still standing. It is also amazing. Back then, those Demon race of the Heavenly Yao Court were extremely extravagant and did countless strange things. This city wall is one of them.”

“It stretches for tens of thousands of kilometers and envelops the entire Tianhong City, which is the size of a state. That’s why it’s called the Great Wall.”

“The Great Wall” Shen Shi stared blankly at the shocking and majestic city wall. He felt that he was as small and fragile as an ant at the foot of the city. He recalled that it was Ancestor Demon race who built such a miraculous building back then, and his mood was somewhat complicated.

Du Tiejian looked at this great city wall. Although his eyes were filled with admiration, he sneered and said, “Although the Great Wall is vast and unprecedented, it has never really had the ability to defend itself. It was just the play of the Demon Emperors of the Heavenly Demon Royal Court in the past.” “Such a huge towering figure is nothing more than an act of fancy. Back then, the Battle of the Human and Demon was decided here. Although the Great Wall was strong and tall, there were loopholes everywhere. Without the slightest bit of defense, it was directly slaughtered by our human army into the city and directly into the Demon Imperial Palace.”

Shen Shi was silent. Du Tiejian also smiled as he spoke. He led him all the way and gave him a rough account of the general situation in Tianhong City.

The saying that Tianhong City was a city and a prefecture had a long history, and it was very widespread in the Primordial Chaos Realms. It was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so it naturally had its reasons. Although there were exaggerations, they were more or less the same.

This famous city was indeed extremely large, far surpassing all the cities in the world.

Bounded by the Great Wall, wrapped up a huge piece of land and went in, There were even two undulating mountain ranges. Previously, when the Heavenly Yao Royal Court was here, most of the people gathered in this city were from the Royal Court. Now, it was naturally the world of humans. Moreover, over the past ten thousand years, the city did not weaken, but instead became even more prosperous. Countless humans gathered here from all directions, saying that gathering the essence of the world was not an exaggeration.

Today, the population living in Tianhong City was countless. Some people even said that the population of this city was several times that of an ordinary state. The densely packed houses were not only in Tianhong City, but also outside the Great Wall. There were countless old and new houses spreading out, forming a large and prosperous area.

For convenience, The humans roughly divided the city into four parts. It was named after the Azure Dragon White Tiger Vermillion Bird Black Tortoise. According to Du Tiejian’s introduction, the Azure Dragon Region was located to the east of Tianhong. The main body of the Azure Dragon Mountain Range was a tall and majestic mountain range. During the Heavenly Yao Royal Court’s time, it was the location of the Monster Royal Palace’s Imperial Palace. Now, it had already turned into a ruins Labyrinth. Legend has it that because the battles of the past were too bloody, Countless vengeful souls and wild ghosts, The extinct demon race cast a terrifying venomous blood curse, Therefore, the entire Azure Dragon Mountain Range was uninhabitable. The ruins of the Demon Emperor Palace were filled with dark winds and ghostly shadows. There were also all sorts of demonic beasts and ghostly creatures. It was said that there were countless treasures in the Demon Imperial Palace in the past, and precious treasures were everywhere. Thus, it was unknown how many human cultivators had visited it for thousands of years.

Apart from that, there was the White Tiger District to the north and the Vermillion Bird District to the west. They were all bustling places. In particular, there were countless shops in the White Tiger District that converged to form the busiest market in the world. Even the main hall of the Hongmeng First Chamber of Commerce, the Divine Immortal Association, was located here. There are countless spirit materials gathered here. Regardless of whether you’ve heard of them or not, what you’ve thought of or never thought of, everything can be found in this miraculous place, provided that you have enough spirit crystals.

Legend has it that in Tianhong City, there is a saying that once you have a spirit crystal, you have everything.

Apart from these three places, there was also the last Black Tortoise District in the south. However, it was slightly different. It was said that there were many high gates and aristocratic families gathered here. The hidden dragons and crouching tigers were unfathomable, and the scenery was quiet and unique, but it was the quietest place in Tianhong City.

As they spoke, Shen Shi and Du Tiejian had already arrived at the bottom of the Great Wall.

Along the way, on both sides of the road outside the city wall, Shen Shi saw a continuous stream of bustling houses and buildings. It was no different from the scene in an ordinary city. Obviously, there were too many people, and even the incomparably large Tianhong City could not accommodate them. He simply lived outside the city.

Not far ahead, there was a city gate that seemed to be forever open, swallowing countless passers-by.

Shen Shi glanced at the huge city gate and suddenly thought to himself, 10,000 years ago, when the human army surrounded Tianhong City, how many people had rushed into the city from here? On the edge of the city gate, the grey stone wall remained silent. Those vague traces seemed to have been annihilated by the years.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, he entered this city for the first time in his life, entering Tianhong City.

④

After entering the city, Du Tiejian didn’t lead Shen Shi directly to the teleportation formation in the Sea Continent. The teleportation formations built by the human race could only be teleported across the continent. At this moment, the sun was setting in the west and the sky was already dark. According to Du Tiejian, they could only return early tomorrow morning.

This was clearly not the first time Du Tiejian had come to Tianhong City. It seemed that they were very familiar with this place. At this moment, they had entered the city from the direction of the Dragon Bridge of the Array Island. From their position, they should be in the Vermillion Bird District of the Four Districts of Tianhong. In the gradually dimming twilight, Du Tiejian and Shen Shi turned left and right on the street. Soon, they left the main road and turned into a small and remote alley.

Shen Shi was somewhat puzzled. He led the little black pig behind this senior brother Du. He saw that senior brother Du’s expression was calm, but his eyes gradually lit up. He seemed to be somewhat excited when he looked at him. His footsteps also slightly quickened, causing the little black pig to groan a few times as if he was complaining from behind.

The ground of the alley was made of stone slabs. Although it was narrow and small, it was very clean. It was not as dirty as imagined. There weren’t many households on either side, but the high walls were erected like the backyards of large households. Just as Shen Shi was thinking nonsense, Du Tiejian suddenly stopped and stood in front of a window.

There was no door, only a wooden window facing the alley, and it was closed.

The surroundings were very quiet, and the sky darkened a little, making the wooden window somewhat blurry.

Du Tiejian’s eyes were bright as he walked to the wooden window. Under Shen Shi’s surprised gaze, he carefully knocked on the window three times.

“Pa pa pa pa” A deep but clear voice echoed in the alley.

The wooden window remained motionless without any reaction.

Just as Shen Shi was feeling a little puzzled, Du Tiejian frowned slightly and knocked twice.

The wooden window remained motionless.

Could it be that the person Senior Brother Du is looking for is not here? Shen Shi thought in his heart.

Du Tiejian waited for a while and discovered that the window was still not responding. He thought for a moment and casually put his huge black sword aside. Then, with an astonishing patience, he started knocking on the window again and again.

Over and over again, he actually knocked down like this, as if no one else was around, causing Shen Shi to begin to suspect what was inside this window. Just like this, the wooden window that Du Tiejian had been knocking on had been knocked on dozens or twenty times. Suddenly, with a creak, the wooden window was suddenly pushed open.

A faint fragrance suddenly spread out along with the opening of the wooden window. It pervaded the alley. Shen Shi’s expression suddenly changed slightly. This aura seemed to be familiar to him.

That’s the smell of wine.

An annoyed voice came from the wooden window and angrily said, “Bastard, are you bored? Don’t you know that I only sell alcohol during the day? I don’t do business now!”

Ever since they met, Du Tiejian, who had always been extremely powerful in Shen Shi’s eyes, suddenly revealed an apologetic smile on his face. He chuckled at the person in the wooden window and said, “Didn’t I come late for something? I’ve known him for so many years, so I’ll sell some more.”

“Not for sale!”

Du Tiejian smiled and said, “If you don’t sell me, I’ll knock until dawn.”

“You” The person in the window seemed to be furious, but he seemed to have no choice but to use this bald man. He complained for a while, to the effect that he was young and ignorant back then. He had known you for a lifetime, but he was unlucky. Du Tiejian did not get angry. He stood at the window and smiled as he took out a few spirit crystals and threw them into his embrace.

The person inside said angrily, “What kind of wine do you want?”

Du Tiejian obviously swallowed his saliva and said, “The best one to come to your place, the flower carving? Oh, the stone well is not bad either. How about …”

Halfway through his words, the person in the window suddenly interrupted him and said, “I recently brewed a new wine. It’s quite new. It’s different from the past. It should taste very good. I haven’t sold it yet. Do you want to …”

Du Tiejian immediately leaned forward and was overjoyed. He saw that even the bald man’s head had lit up a little and was even more conspicuous in the night. He smiled and said, “If you want it, you can’t do anything else. This wine-making skill is definitely unparalleled in the world. Quickly give me some!”

“Hmph” The person in the window snorted. Although he seemed to be disdainful, it wasn’t hard to tell that there was still a hint of complacency in his voice.

After a while, A green wine gourd was suddenly thrown out of the wooden window. Du Tiejian caught it and impatiently pulled out the plug. Immediately, a delicate fragrance surged out. Even if Shen Shi stood a little further away, he could actually smell it. He faintly felt that it was indeed somewhat different from the previous wine fragrance. The mellow fragrance was slightly reduced, and the delicate fragrance was superior. Although it was not drunk, it had a strong feeling. It was as if the wind passed through a bamboo forest. It was green, quiet and elegant. It was refreshing.

Unknowingly, his mouth was filled with sweetness.

Du Tiejian took a deep breath and closed his eyes. It was as if he was half drunk. He couldn’t help but exhale and praise, “This smell is good wine if you don’t drink it. Good fellow, this skill is getting better and better.”

The person in the window sneered and said arrogantly, “Nonsense, I still need you to say this.”

Du Tiejian smiled and said, “This wine is different from others. What is its name?”

The person in the window paused for a moment and said,

“Bamboo Leaf Green.”
