After listening to Lianyi's explanation, Sun Lanlan only had a look of envy on her face. She felt that she had a spirit stone mine at home, so she would use the spirit stones to practice so extravagantly. She didn't dare to do this. The spirit stones in the storage bag were all It will only be used in emergencies.
Qiao Hao coughed lightly, drew everyone's attention back, and then said:
"We will arrive at Bian Xiacheng in two hours, everyone, be prepared."
After saying that, he controlled the flying boat and continued to move forward. He just stopped just to wait for Lianyi to complete his advancement.
Qiao Hao actually does not recommend that Ripple break through halfway, because there are unstable factors in the surrounding environment, and it is easy to be interrupted by unexpected situations, which can easily cause backlash, but Ripple is lucky, or in other words She knew how to choose her time, and her promotion was smooth, and her cultivation was now on par with him.
Ripple used this two-hour period to familiarize himself with the wind spells in "Nine Revolutions of Wind and Cloud". Several people watched as Ripple continued to perform the spells on the flying boat, from being unskilled at the beginning to instantaneous, and finally even Able to control the wind and stay in the air.
You must know that monks can only fly in the air if they break through the Golden Core Stage. If monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage want to stay in the air, they can only use flying swords.
This time, the four of them saw the difference between genius monks and ordinary monks. The impact on them was quite big.
Even if Lianyi understood the meaning expressed in their eyes, he didn't want to comfort them. If he couldn't accept this gap, how could he walk out on his own path to immortality.
The original agreement she reached with the recruiter of the Space-Time Administration included the retention of her cultivation, so there was no bottleneck in her cultivation.
What's more, when the original body fell, she was only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage. This was because the skills she practiced did not match her own hidden spirit roots. Even so, she was able to practice to the late stage of the Golden Core, which shows the original body's talent. It's not bad at all, but he was misled by his white-eyed wolf senior brother.
After Lianyi became familiar with the spell, he continued to play with the whirlwind and communicated with the other party in the sea of consciousness.
"Xuanfeng, I have advanced to the late stage of foundation building. Has your cultivation level slackened?"
"Yes, but now is not a good time to make a breakthrough."
Whirlwind replied immediately.
"Don't worry. When this mission is completed, you can advance to a small level. Before entering the Yuntian Secret Realm, we must suppress our cultivation to the peak of the late foundation building stage, otherwise we will not be able to enter."
"Master, don't worry, Xuanfeng understands."
Xiaofeng felt very comfortable, turned over in Lianyi's arms, and fell asleep. Spiritual beasts generally spend their time in sleep when they advance to the next level. Tornado is no exception, but this time he is simply sleeping.
“We’re here.”
Qiao Hao said aloud.
Everyone opened their eyes and looked at the city not far away.
The city is built with special black stones, and each stone is engraved with formation patterns. If an unexpected situation occurs, the city protection formation can be activated immediately, but there are some problems in Bian City in front of you. It was depressed, and there were almost no people coming in or out at the city gate.
“This is too deserted.”
Sun Lanlan said.
“After something like that happened, many people were unwilling to come here. No one would rush in stupidly even if they knew there was danger.”
Xiao Shanhe sighed.
"Meow" Whirlwind called out without any warning, the sound was long and attracted everyone's attention.
"Elaine, what happened to your spirit beast?"
Ripple was communicating with Xuanfeng at this time, and Xuanfeng actually discovered the problem with this city.
“Master, this is not one city, these are two cities.”
"Two cities?"
"Yes, it's like a matryoshka doll. The big city has a small city inside it, but it's just at the same location. Neither side should know the existence of the other city."
< br>Xuanfeng expressed his meaning clearly.
“Is there a space loophole here?”
“It should be man-made. I can see that the city is fading. It feels like a ghost town.”
"If this is the case, it can explain why those people disappeared suddenly. They should have been sucked into another hidden city."
After thinking about it for a while, Ripple understood.
At this time, Qiao Hao and others looked at the thoughtful expression on Ripple's face, and were all curious about what she saw.
"Elaine, what did you see?" Sun Lanlan asked first.
"I didn't see it, but my whirlwind saw it. This is a city within a city."
Lianyi briefly explained to a few people.
Before he mutated, Xuanfeng was a black cat, also known as a black cat. His eyes could communicate with yin and yang, and he could see things that ordinary people could not see. After being introduced to the path of cultivation by Ripples, he became He is a demon cultivator, which has a bonus effect on his ability, so he can see through the mystery at the first sight.
"Junior Sister Elian means that the missing people are in another city, in the same place as this Bianxia City."
Qiao Hao also asked in surprise.
"Yes."
"Is that city alive? Can he choose specific monks to enter it?"
Sun Lanlan was really surprised.
"How can a city be conscious? The only people who can control this are people."
Zhao Mingyu said in a deep voice.
Ripple nodded, this was also her guess.
"If you want to rescue those who are missing, you can only find the person who took action, otherwise people will continue to disappear."
Xiao Shanhe said in a deep voice.
“We will definitely become each other’s target.”
Lianyi said with narrowed eyes.
No one refuted this time because their cultivation levels were not low. According to the other party's selection criteria, they were likely to become targets as soon as they entered the city this time.
“Let’s talk about it first in the city.”
As the captain, Qiao Hao immediately spoke up.
Of course everyone had no objection. After landing the flying boat, they walked slowly towards Bian Xiacheng.
There were only two young monks in the Qi Refining Period guarding the gate of the city. Seeing Qiao Hao and the other five people wearing the robes of the Wuyun Sect, they immediately greeted them diligently:
"Are you the seniors of the Wuyun Sect?"
"Exactly."
"Finally, we have finally arrived. Please come here. I will take you to the City Lord's Mansion."
The male cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining immediately became energetic and wanted to take the person to see the city lord as quickly as possible.
“Thank you.”
Qiao Hao nodded.
The group of people walked around and looked around to see what was going on around them.
The few people seemed to be walking very slowly, and their steps were not very large. It only took less than a quarter of an hour to reach the city lord's palace.
It is said to be the City Lord's Mansion, but it is actually a courtyard with three entrances. It only looks like that because of the protective formations arranged on the walls.
"Seniors please come in."
The city lord's palace also received the summons, and a lean man came out to greet him.
"I'm with Zhou An, Lord of Bian City. Please follow me."
A few people followed Zhou An into the second entrance hall. After they sat down respectively, Qiao Hao asked about the details. situation.
After Zhou An sighed, he talked about the disappearance of the monks in the city, and then explained helplessly:
"I only have the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building, and I have never been able to I found the reason for the disappearance of the monks in the city and asked the sect for help as a last resort. However, two mission teams disappeared in the city. I was very frightened and really didn’t know what to do.”
