Chapter 139 Wuhun City
The journey here is thousands of miles away, and it is definitely not possible to walk on two legs or ride a horse.
As for the soul master system, only those who have reached the soul saint level can fly in the air for a short time, and only those who have reached the Titled Douluo realm can fly in the air for a long time with their physical body.
Jiang Shuo then brought out two flying cloud beasts directly from the sect.
This kind of spirit beast has a broad back, a docile personality, and good endurance. It is quite suitable for long journeys.
The hundred-year-old cloud beast can carry people for five hundred miles in one breath, while the thousand-year-old cloud beast can already carry people up to two thousand miles.
It was just dawn when we left.
Having been on the road for a long time, Jiang Shuo and the two stopped to let the cloud beast rest for a while in the scorching sun at noon.
The sun sets a little in the afternoon and we continue on our way.
At this point, in three or four days, we have traveled tens of thousands of miles, from the mountains to the plains, and across the plains again, and we can see the continuous basin hills.
All the way to the west, the scenery becomes more and more depressed, the cities are greatly reduced, and the villages and farmland become scattered.
Finally, the two of them arrived at their destination.
Let the cloud beast fly and let it forage for food in the mountains and forests. Jiang Shuo and Mu Xue stood in front of a city in the west of the original Douluo Continent.
It is Wuhun City located in the southwest of Tianhun Empire and northeast of the border of Star Luo Empire.
The city in front of them is still called Wuhun City. I don’t know what kind of mentality Tiandou and Xingluo had back then that didn’t force it to change its name.
To humiliate this place that caused them so much pain?
Or do you want to remember that suppressed history?
According to historical records, at its peak, Wuhun Palace claimed to have 50,000 soul masters.
The imperial royal family was weak at that time, far worse than it is now.
The two great empires, Tiandou and Xingluo, combined have just over 10,000 soul masters.
At that time, the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect was at its peak, boasting five thousand soul masters; the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex family of the other three upper sects had less than two thousand, and the shrunken Haotian Sect had only five hundred.
The Wuhun Palace alone accounts for 70% of the entire continent, so it can be said that it is not weak.
Unfortunately, everything disappeared.
After its destruction, although the number of soul masters has already exceeded one million, there is no longer a force that can dominate the entire continent.
Even the Taixu Jiang clan only has about 30,000 soul masters.
Jiang Shuo looked back with emotion.
As powerful as it was then, the contrast is so strong now.
The plaque hanging high in the city in front of us still has half of its original style.
The city wall has been in disrepair for a long time and is stained with stains.
The few guards at the entrance of the city gate are loose and loose. They are ordinary people with no cultivation level.
The people who enter the city have changed from noble soul masters of level 20 and above to common people who have been bent down by life.
Mu Xue looked up at the city gate in front of her with the same curiosity as she raised her slightly narrow and cold phoenix eyes.
“Thousands of years have passed, and people who were once prosperous will become like this once they lose power.”
“Don’t be too surprised.”
The girl turned her pretty face. , looking at the young man who spoke.
"Is this also a kind of insight from human experience?"
"Of course, your current world view is like a blank piece of paper, and my task is to draw the colors of fireworks on it." Jiang Shuo spread his hands and said with a smile.
The Snow Emperor frowned slightly, his long eyelashes beating slightly.
"I am not a child."
"In terms of age, I am much older than your ancestors; in terms of seniority, I am also your senior sister."
Jiang Shuo smiled faintly. Maybe he should care about how old he is, but he is so much older that he is already numb.
However, he still has a arrogant temperament.
"Okay, okay, Senior Sister Mu, shall we go into the city?" The young man stretched out his hand to indicate.
Mu Xue was then satisfied and said, "Let's go."
With almost no obstruction, the two of them entered smoothly after paying the entrance fee of four copper soul coins.
The streets are very old, with bulging bricks and stones. I'm afraid it's difficult for carriages to move around, so we can only walk.
But it’s pretty neat.
After asking for directions, they learned that the ruins of Wuhun Palace were on the mountain in the north of the city, so the two of them hurried there. The ruins are very large, much larger than Jiang Shuo's Humble Administrator's Peak.
The ruins of the original Wuhun Palace are located on a hill, surrounded by connected undulating peaks.
The vast area is probably not much smaller than the city below that accommodates a population of over 100,000 people.
But after standing up, Jiang Shuo felt a little strange.
After thousands of years of weathering, some buildings can still be preserved instead of being directly razed to the ground.
A few dirty white pillars stood at the end of what might have been the square, supporting a hall-like building that was broken in half and leaking.
It is said that the pillars are white, but in fact it is no longer obvious that they are white. Jiang Shuo reasoned according to the normal situation and guessed that white should be used in this place.
It can also be seen from this that the original materials must have been very particular to be able to stand upright to this day.
Mu Xue followed Jiang Shuo, and the two of them rushed towards the huge palace that had not yet fallen.
After arriving, the feeling became more concrete.
The palace door, which may have been made of iron, has disappeared somewhere, but the height and length of the door frame alone made Jiang Shuo speechless.
The door frame is much shorter than the roof of the palace, but it is still at least twenty meters wide and about ten meters long.
It is conceivable that to open these two palace doors thousands of years ago, it would have taken at least several soul masters.
Jiang Shuo turned his head slightly, looked at the silent and curious girl who was looking around with her hands hanging on both sides of her thighs, and said:
"This should be the Pope's Palace, which is where the martial spirit was. This is the place where the Pope meets with envoys and handles government affairs. "
"There should be a throne held up by high steps in front of it."
Mu Xue glanced at the extremely spacious hall. Broken Space nodded slightly.
"I also heard about the position of Pope of Wuhun Palace back then."
"But at that time, it was basically difficult for soul masters to enter the Far North, so I didn't know about it until many years after the destruction of Wuhun Palace. "
Jiang Shuo smiled and said in a slightly emotional tone: "I am afraid that except for the last generation, all the popes of the Wuhun Palace will have difficulty in defeating You. "
< br>"That's natural. I am in the far north. Even if Taixu Douluo and Di Tian come, they may not be able to defeat me."
Mu Xue proudly raised her young neck and mentioned the past. , with pride on his face.
When Jiang Shuo saw this, he laughed in his heart, but aren't you still in my hands now?
On the surface, he once again praised him a few words, which made the girl beside him smile, and her coldness melted away a lot.
While talking, the two of them walked towards the north of the ruined palace.
The seventh step at the top is about ten square meters.
The Pope's chair is gone, but its location remains.
After climbing the high steps, Jiang Shuo turned around and could see every corner of the ruined hall.
Reminiscent of that time and scene, a feeling of overlooking all living beings arises spontaneously.
......
But this feeling returned to reality after a while.
The place was in ruins, giving him the feeling of a loser,
It quickly became boring.
Jiang Shuo started knocking around, trying to see if there were any hidden grids.
But after checking for a long time, there were only rubble and ruins.
Not to mention the hidden compartment, because it has been abandoned for a long time, there is not even a single footprint.
“Forget it, let’s go to the worship hall in front.”
After saying this, Jiang Shuo stepped down first and passed through the hole in the north of the Pope's Palace.
Unfortunately, what I saw a few moments later were almost the same two ruined palaces, overgrown with vegetation and having lost their original color due to the wind and sun.
Other than that, there are no other buildings.
Jiang Shuo gradually gave up hope.
After thinking about it, it seems that this is exactly what it should be.
Bricks and stones were originally valuable things, but after tens of thousands of years, they had been broken open and emptied out.
The three main halls are still there simply because they are made of huge hard stones that cannot be moved by ordinary people and are looked down upon by soul masters.
