495: Strange City Guard
Liu Chengfeng had not yet finished speaking.
The room door clicked.
It opened automatically.
"I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Elder Liu."
Su Yun walked straight out of the room.
The Elders immediately felt a powerful sense of pressure emanating from Su Yun.
It was obvious that Su Yun had become stronger again.
This instantly made them even more in awe of Su Yun.
Especially Liu Chengfeng.
He now treated Su Yun with as much respect as he would a Grand Elder.
"What is the situation now?"
"The ground is still shaking continuously. That wave of Law fluctuations seems to be coming from tens of thousands of miles to the east."
Su Yun commanded, "Let's go. Start the taixuan boat; we'll head there to take a look!"
It was finally here.
This powerful fluctuation of Laws.
Needless to say, it was definitely related to the Martial Immortal Temple mentioned in Ye Xuan's life script.
However, according to what Elder Liu said.
That location seemed to be a place covered in sand and dust.
Wait.
He and Senior Sister Yulan seemed to have been there before.
Martial Immortal Temple.
Judging by the name.
Could it be related to the previous Martial Immortal Secret Realm?
It wasn't impossible!
He would know once he went to see.
While Su Yun was deep in thought.
The taixuan boat, which had been docked for over ten days, started up again.
It flew toward the east... Pingsha City.
It was originally a bustling cultivation city.
But because of the recent Demon Race invasion.
It had now become extremely desolate.
Previously, the Demon Race had set up special formation cores throughout the Southern Region.
After learning about this from Su Yun, the experts from various major forces in the Central Domain began clearing the formation cores near the cities across the Southern Region.
The Cultivators currently in Pingsha City were those left behind by the major forces of the Central Domain to clear the nearby formation cores.
"Look, what is that?"
Many Cultivators noticed the recent disturbance.
They left Pingsha City one after another to check the situation.
"Hmm???"
"Are my eyes playing tricks on me?"
"Wasn't that place just an empty desert yesterday?"
"How did a city suddenly appear?"
"What on earth is going on?"
Many Cultivators rubbed their eyes and looked again at the desert outside Pingsha City.
They saw a massive city in the middle of the desert.
It seemed to blend naturally with the surrounding environment, as if it had always been there.
The city walls were tens of thousands of feet high.
They emitted waves of heart-palpitating fluctuations.
Countless lights of Laws swirled around it.
On the city gate hung a massive plaque with three gold-leafed characters: "Martial Immortal City."
The Cultivators only took one look at those three characters and immediately felt dizzy, their spirits shaken.
Those three characters seemed to contain a special power.
Looking directly at them would result in a powerful Divine Soul shock.
"Everyone, do not look directly at that plaque, or you will be injured!"
A Tribulation Crossing Realm Elder of the Tianyang Sect hurriedly spoke.
Hearing this, the other Cultivators quickly looked away, and the pressure on their Divine Souls instantly lifted.
Yet, they still felt a lingering fear.
"How did this city appear?"
"Martial Immortal City?"
"Could there be a Martial Immortal Legacy inside the city?"
"Hiss~ The Martial Immortal was a supreme expert from the ancient era of our Haomiao Realm."
No one actually knows his real name.
"We only know that he was originally a Mortal."
"He entered the Dao through martial arts until his Immortal Ascension."
"A Martial Immortal Legacy would definitely be incredibly precious."
"However, this Martial Immortal City doesn't seem that simple!"
"Obtaining the Legacy won't be easy."
"Besides, there might not even be a Legacy inside!"
"I'm not sure. We should notify the Holy Lords to come!"
"The Holy Lords haven't left the Southern Region yet!"
"Wait, do you hear some noisy sounds?"
Another Tianyang Elder's expression turned solemn as he looked around warily.
"What sounds?"
Hearing this, the other Cultivators stopped their discussion.
Since the ground had stopped shaking.
The surroundings had become exceptionally quiet.
The Cultivators clearly heard waves of noisy sounds suddenly coming from inside Martial Immortal City.
They could identify them as the sounds of people laughing and talking.
"Has someone already entered Martial Immortal City?"
"That's impossible!"
"This Martial Immortal City has only been here for less than half an incense stick's time."
"And I've been near the city gate the whole time."
"I didn't notice any Cultivators approaching Martial Immortal City."
"Let alone anyone going inside!"
"Could it be people from the ancient era?"
"Are they still alive?"
"No way!"
"Judging by the sound, there's at least a city's worth of people."
"Unless they are Immortals."
"Otherwise, who could live that long?"
"A whole city of Immortals?"
"That's insane!"
"It could also be people who have lived in Martial Immortal City for generations since the ancient era."
"Hiss~ This?"
The Cultivators felt extremely shocked as they talked.
Were the people inside Martial Immortal City really survivors from the ancient era?
Or were they their descendants?
Just then, a sharp-eyed Cultivator suddenly noticed a squad of red-robed city guards walking out onto the walls of Martial Immortal City.
They stood in a line along the wall.
No cultivation level could be seen from these city guards.
However, they possessed extremely powerful auras.
Upon seeing the Cultivators outside the city, the city guards spoke loudly:
"You have all come from afar; you must be here to join the Martial Immortal Temple, right?"
"The trial has already begun."
"After entering Martial Immortal City."
"And passing various trials."
"You will be able to pay your respects to Lord Martial Immortal!"
"As for whether you can join the Martial Immortal Temple."
"That will depend on your performance."
When they mentioned the words "Lord Martial Immortal," their eyes were filled with fanatical worship, which was quite shocking.
As soon as the city guards finished speaking.
A great wave of shock rose in the hearts of the Cultivators.
Pay respects to the Martial Immortal?
Had he not ascended to the Immortal Realm?
He was right here in this Martial Immortal City.
At this thought, the Cultivators gasped.
The Martial Immortal!
He was a supreme expert of the ancient era.
Legend has it that he tore through the Immortal Ascension Tribulation with a single palm strike, easily shattering the Void Realm to enter the Immortal Realm.
To think such a powerful figure was actually in Martial Immortal City.
Was it true?
At this time, an anxious Cultivator quickly cupped his hands and asked the city guards:
"Fellow Daoists."
"I have come here specifically to join the Martial Immortal Temple."
"But my strength is insufficient."
"I don't know if I can pass the trial."
"Could you please reveal what the specific contents of the trial are?"
After he spoke, the other Cultivators nearby also listened curiously.
But to their disappointment.
The city guards did not answer; instead, they repeated what they had just said.
At this moment, their tone was very flat and their eyes were hollow, making one's skin crawl.
Other Cultivators also asked a few questions.
However, these city guards still did not answer.
They just kept repeating the words they had said at the beginning.
"What's going on?"
"Could it just be an illusionary realm?"
"That's not right. These city guards are so realistic; how could it be an illusionary realm?"
"Then what's happening?"
"Why aren't they answering our questions?"
Just as the Cultivators were feeling puzzled.
A series of booming sounds came from the distance.
spirit boats from various major forces were flying over at high speed.
