Chapter 889: Chapter 571: Treasure Auction, Comprehending Sword Intent
"Is this Tianshu City truly immense."
Lu Qing stood mid-air, gazing ahead with admiration in his eyes.
Tianshu City was not like the cities he had seen before, composed of countless buildings and constructions.
Within the city, towering peaks rose up, dotted with numerous pavilions and dwellings, and cultivator cave mansions.
Between the peaks, spiritual cranes would fly, surrounded in mist.
This didn’t resemble a city at all; it was utterly like an immortal blessed land.
"Those who can come to Tianshu City are mostly individuals with high cultivation; the Golden Core Realm is quite common, and Primordial Spirit Great Powers appear from time to time.
Strong cultivators have high requirements for their living environment, so naturally, Tianshu City is unlike ordinary cities."
Five Treasure Taoist laughed.
Lu Qing also thought the same.
Powerful cultivators, capable of flying and traversing anywhere, have high demands for cultivation environments, naturally do not need to crowd into tiny houses like ordinary people.
"Mr. Chen, we are planning to meet with other sects’ disciples next, where are you intending to go?"
Senior Sister Ye, Ye Qingzhu, asked Lu Qing.
"It’s my first time in Tianshu City, I plan to stroll around first."
"Then we shall part ways here, Mr. Chen, our Qiankun Sect disciples will temporarily settle at Yuheng Peak. If you need to reach us in the future, just have someone bring this token to notify us."
Ye Qingzhu took out a white jade token and respectfully handed it to Lu Qing.
Seeing the solemn expression on her face, Lu Qing finally smiled without refusing and accepted the token.
"Then I shall shamelessly accept it."
Seeing Lu Qing accept the token, Ye Qingzhu and her companions, who were initially a bit apprehensive, immediately smiled.
"Then, Mr. Chen, we shall leave first."
"Goodbye, Brother Chen."
"Farewell, Mr. Chen."
Watching Ye Qingzhu and her companions transform into streams of light and fly away, only when their figures disappeared did Lu Qing withdraw his gaze.
"Mr. Chen, where are we headed now?"
Five Treasure Taoist had been quietly waiting by the side and only now spoke up.
"Let the Daoist decide; I know nothing about Tianshu City." Lu Qing shook his head.
Five Treasure Taoist thought for a moment: "We still don’t know the situation of the secret realm being brewed; why don’t we explore a bit first, then rent a cave mansion and slowly gather information?"
"That sounds good." Lu Qing nodded.
Then, the two strolled around Tianshu City for a while and finally chose a more peripheral and inconspicuous peak, renting two Golden Core Level cave mansions to temporarily reside.
Because a new secret realm was about to emerge atop the Divine Mountain, many strong cultivators from various continents rushed over.
Making Tianshu City not overcrowded but filled with many cultivators.
Even the rental price of cave mansions in the city increased significantly.
Fortunately, Lu Qing currently had an abundance of spirit stones, so renting a cave mansion was easy.
If he weren’t reluctant to be too ostentatious, he even wanted to rent a Primordial Spirit Level cave mansion to live in.
After settling down in the cave mansion, Lu Qing took out a jade scroll and began reading.
This jade scroll, he happened upon while strolling in the city, seeing someone selling information about Tianshu City and Tianshu Divine Mountain, and together with Five Treasure Taoist, bought a copy each.
With divine soul power probing into the jade scroll, in no time, Lu Qing had already read all the information within and a trace of understanding appeared in his eyes.
"So that’s it, within Tianshu City, Spirit Mountains are everywhere, but the most important are the seven most powerful mountains, among which Tianshu Peak is the core of Tianshu City and the secluded place of the Tianshu City Lord."
"As for Tianshu Divine Mountain, the secret realm being nurtured is located halfway up the north mountain. A Primordial Spirit Great Power skilled in divination once said that at most within another month, the secret realm should be fully nurtured and accessible."
"This time, the secret realm being nurtured by the Divine Mountain, though not yet emerged, already shows intense fluctuations. A Primordial Spirit Great Power predicts this is likely the most mystical secret realm nurtured by the Divine Mountain in thousands of years."
"Therefore, not only have cultivators from nearby continents rapidly arrived, but even distant powerful sect forces have dispatched elite disciples to contend for opportunities."
...
Lu Qing gradually sorted through the information in the jade scroll, gaining a rough understanding of Tianshu Divine Mountain and the situation in Tianshu City.
In essence, the secret realm being nurtured by the Tianshu Divine Mountain this time is quite extraordinary.
Even without officially emerging, it emits vibrations strong enough to garner utmost attention from numerous Primordial Spirit Great Powers.
Not only have sect forces and noble families sent elites, but even loose cultivators have flocked in.
"Such a grand scene indeed warrants a visit."
Lu Qing’s heart stirred with some anticipation.
With many strong individuals converging here, the secret realm will undoubtedly witness fierce competition.
He could take the opportunity to observe various Taoist techniques and cultivation methods from different sects and expand his knowledge.
While Lu Qing pondered, a sudden fluctuation came from outside the cave mansion.
After checking, he found it was Five Treasure Taoist and opened the cave mansion to let him in.
"Mr. Chen, have you finished reading the information in the jade scroll?"
Once inside, Five Treasure Taoist asked.
"Just finished reading, only wondering if the information in the jade scroll is accurate."
"The sellers are from Bai Xiao Sect, their reputation is always good. It’s unlikely they’d use false information to ruin their own name," Five Treasure Taoist laughed, "Moreover, this information isn’t considered confidential, it should be reliable."
