Chapter 365 Xutian Grand Event, Seize the Opportunity

"This Xutian City... is really illusory!"

Xiao Zhuoran looked at the huge ancient city in the distance with a strange expression on his face.

Xutian City is the holy city of the Sky-Swallowing Ancient Python.

It's just that the Sky-Swallowing Ancient Python is just a demon clan after all, and its construction ability is not strong. It can only formally transform when it reaches the Nascent Soul stage. Naturally, it is impossible for a demon beast of this level to build an ancient city.

So the powerful man in the Spirit-Asking Stage of the Sky-Swallowing Ancient Python used great means to transform into a huge ancient city that stretched for thousands of miles.

Under normal circumstances, this ancient city looks like a solid ancient city, exuding a strong quaint atmosphere as a whole, but once you reach a certain level of cultivation, you can easily find that this ancient city is actually illusory.

This is also the origin of Xutian City.

Xutian City is located on a mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles. Because it was transformed by illusion, this ancient city fits the mountain range very well. From a distance, it looks like an ancient city built on the mountain. Every building, every road The roads are all natural.

It seems to be integrated with the heaven and earth, and it feels relaxed and happy at first glance.

Zhou You said: "We are not here to enjoy it. Whether this ancient city is illusory or not has little to do with us. Let's go in and take a look first."

"Um."

Xiao Zhuoran nodded, and without any nonsense, he and Zhou You entered Xutian City.

Xutian City is very lively. Most of them are half-human and half-snake monsters. The half-human, half-snake monsters are all monsters at the elixir formation stage or above.

Of course, there are also many demonic beasts that cannot transform. Most of these demonic beasts huddle in their own houses or caves. Some demonic beasts also reveal their heads to talk to the demonic beasts outside.

Most of these monsters are doing business.

Although Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran looked like humans, they exuded a strong demonic aura, and no demonic beast doubted them.

There are many monsters like them.

Monsters above the Nascent Soul stage can completely transform into human form.

There are many such monsters in the entire Xutian City.

Monsters in the Nascent Soul stage can be seen everywhere in Xutian City.

Even the beings in the Divine Transformation Stage who stand at the top of Daqi Kingdom are not uncommon and can be seen occasionally.

The truly high-status people in Xutian City are those with strong bloodlines and those whose cultivation level is above the disaster stage.

Although the monsters in the transformation stage are respected by others, they are not very fanatical. At most, they are some monsters with low cultivation level, and they are quite polite to those monsters in transformation.

Nepotism is very serious among monsters.

There are very few lone rangers.

It is possible that a certain demon beast in the pill-forming stage has the backing of a demon beast in the god-transformation stage or even the misfortune-transmitting stage, so even those monsters in the god-formation stage would not dare to rely on their own cultivation to attack the pill-forming element. The infant monsters were dictating and did not dare to bully them.

Relatively speaking, this place is quite harmonious.

Even the monsters in the transformation stage did not see such arrogant existence.

This surprised Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran.

"Find a place to stay first."

Zhou You said, taking Xiao Zhuoran towards the center of Xutian City.

Xutian City is a mountain city that winds upwards. The higher you go towards the center, the higher it gets. At the highest point, there is a majestic ice and snow temple, in which live the Heaven-Devouring Demon Emperor and the Heaven-Devouring Ancient Python Royal Family. .

And Princess Qianqian must also be in the Ice and Snow Temple.

So the two quickly came to a city under the Ice and Snow Temple.

The aura of this city is already extremely rich. It is the place closest to the core area of ​​Xutian City. The monsters here are at the Nascent Soul stage with the worst cultivation level. Monsters in the Core Formation stage cannot be seen at all.

Monsters in the divine transformation stage can be seen everywhere.

You can even occasionally see one or two monsters coming in and out of the disaster period.

In this way, this place is the most human-like place. All the monsters have transformed into humans, and there seems to be no sense of violation when coming and going.

If not for the strong demonic energy exuding from everyone, Xiao Zhuoran would have been able to return to the human territory for the two of them.

What surprised Xiao Zhuoran was that they actually found an inn here.

certainly.

The inn is actually a place that rents out temporary caves and provides some services such as drinks, and the cost is extremely expensive.

Xiao Zhuoran was secretly speechless after hearing the price.

The demon clan also uses spirit stones as currency. For such a cave, the cheapest one costs more than 100,000 spirit stones per day. It is no wonder that only monsters above the Nascent Soul stage dare to come here.

The consumption here is too high.

This inn requires more than 100,000 spirit stones a day, which ordinary Yuanying stage people can't afford. More than 100,000 spirit stones can already be used to buy some relatively good magic weapons.

And this is just the cost of an inn, and the consumption in other places is higher.

The items sold here can easily cost hundreds of thousands.

After Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran randomly asked for an ordinary cave in the inn, Zhou You curiously asked the shopkeeper: "Sir, my two brothers just entered Xutian City today. There are some things that are not clear. Please ask the shopkeeper." Give me some advice."

The shopkeeper was a bat demon in the middle stage of becoming a god, with shrewd eyes. He was very satisfied with Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran for paying the rent for a few days, so he was quite friendly towards Zhou You.

"Fellow Taoist, it's okay to ask. I'll tell you everything I know."

The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Zhou You said: "I see that many fellow Taoists go to the Ice and Snow Temple. Is this Ice and Snow Temple also open to the public on weekdays?"

The shopkeeper laughed after hearing this: "Actually, it's not like that. The Ice and Snow Temple is not open to the public on weekdays. The reason why other Taoist friends went there today is because today is the day when the princess is looking for a husband."

Zhou You was stunned for a moment, his face full of surprise: "Looking for a husband? Which princess?"

The shopkeeper laughed: "There are no other princesses in Xutian City. This princess is naturally the beloved daughter of the Devouring Demon Emperor, Princess Qianqian."

Zhou You and Xiao Zhuoran looked at each other.

The purpose of their coming here is to find Princess Qianqian.

I didn't expect that they would run into Princess Qianqian's husband registration just after arriving in Xutian City?

This is a bit unexpected.

Zhou You said: "This Princess Qianqian is a body of a thousand gold, why would she marry an ordinary monster?"

The shopkeeper laughed: "Daoyou, you don't know, Princess Qianqian's husband's requirements are not simple, either a young talent with true spirit blood, or an outstanding person above the transformation stage, ordinary monsters don't even have the qualifications to register."

Zhou You suddenly realized, that's it.

Only those with True Spirit Bloodline or above the Formation Stage are eligible to register, which is reasonable.

I don’t know what form this marriage proposal takes.

Zhou You became curious and decided to take a look.

So Zhou You asked some simple questions, went to see the cave, and then left the inn with Xiao Zhuoran and went to the Ice and Snow Temple.

As he headed towards the temple, he could clearly feel the temperature around him starting to drop.

Large tracts of snow covered the area near the temple.

Many monsters flew into the Ice and Snow Temple, and countless red lights were rushing in the sky. Almost all of the monsters in these red lights were above the Nascent Soul Stage, and none of the Core Formation Stage was seen.

Most of them were monsters in the God Transformation Stage.

Every monster has already transformed, and they dare not enter the Ice and Snow Temple in the form of monsters. According to the innkeeper, Princess Qianqian is very concerned about her appearance. If she registers in her original form, most monsters may not even be eligible to register.

Therefore, the closer you get to the inside, the more it feels like entering the human territory.

Even the guards of the temple have transformed into humans.

It can be seen that the guards are basically in the Jindan stage, and there are very few in the Yuanying stage.

But these guards have completely transformed into humans.

This must be the work of the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor. It can be seen from this that the Ice and Snow Temple has high requirements for appearance. It is really strict according to the requirements. Even the guards must transform.

"It's true that the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor's requirements are quite high. Those who don't know would think that they have entered the market of the human race."

Xiao Zhuoran said.

Zhou You said: "This is probably not the request of the Devouring Heaven Demon Emperor, but the request of Princess Qianqian."

Xiao Zhuoran nodded, and agreed with Zhou You's speculation.

The two soon came to a huge square in front of the Ice and Snow Temple.

There are already thousands of demon beasts transformed into human forms on the square.

These demon beasts are at least Yuanying stage demon beasts, among which the most are in the Huashen stage, with thousands of them.

There are even several demon beasts in the Du'e stage.

It can be seen how terrifying this Zhongtian Domain is.

Whether in the Beiling demon clan or the Great Qi Kingdom, the God Transformation Stage is the top combat force, especially in the Great Qi Kingdom. In the past, it was a legendary existence, and even now there are only one or two God Transformation Stage.

But in this Xutian City, there are thousands of God Transformation monsters who come to participate in the marriage!

Not to mention the entire Xutian City. According to Zhou You's estimate, there should be tens of thousands of God Transformation Stage.

And this is just Xutian City.

Xutian City is just the holy city of the Sky-Swallowing Ancient Python. In the entire Zhongtian Domain, there are no less than six or seven places like this!

If this is added up, the God Transformation Stage monsters in the entire Ten Thousand Mountains... It is estimated that there are no less than 100,000!

Xiao Zhuoran was also a little frightened when he saw the scene in front of him.

After all, he was surrounded by so many God Transformation Stage monsters.

If it were someone else, I'm afraid the psychological defense line would collapse.

It was Xiao Zhuoran who had experienced many ups and downs with Zhou You, so he didn't show any abnormality.

Xiao Zhuoran transmitted a message: "Wow, so many divine beasts, is this the Zhongtian Realm?"

Zhou You responded calmly: "This is the core area of ​​the demon race after all, and it is the demon race's holy land. The most advanced cultivators of the demon race are all here, so it is normal to have so many divine beasts."

Xiao Zhuoran nodded.

Zhou You glanced around and did not see Princess Qianqian here, but saw a huge platform under the temple, on which a huge blue demon spirit stone was placed.

The stone was emitting bursts of blue light, and there were two demon beasts in the Du'e period guarding it.

From time to time, a demon beast flew up to the platform and put his hand on the demon spirit stone. As the demon energy poured in, some information appeared on the demon spirit stone.

"Mysterious middle-grade bloodline, unqualified, go down."

A demon beast in the Du'e period waved his hand and asked the tested demon beast to go down.

As the demon beasts stepped onto the test platform one by one and passed the demon energy into the demon spirit stone, the bloodline levels of those demon beasts also emerged one by one.

The blood of demon beasts is generally divided into four levels from high to low: heaven, earth, black and yellow, and each level is further divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. For example, for the blood of the true spirit, generally only blood above the heavenly level can be the blood of the true spirit.

Obviously, in order to successfully enter the list of candidates for marriage, you must at least have the blood of the heavenly level.

"Would you like to try it too?"

Zhou You said to Xiao Zhuoran with a smile.

Xiao Zhuoran shook his head and said: "You also know my situation. My bloodline level is simply not up to standard."

There's nothing wrong with what he said.

Although Xiao Zhuoran integrated the bloodline of the Golden Feather Eagle and practiced the art of transforming demons, there was no way the Golden Feather Eagle's bloodline could satisfy him.

What's more, who knows what will happen when Xiao Zhuoran goes for the test.

After all, he is just an ordinary human monk, not a real monster. The monster energy is only simulated by the magic of demon transformation. If the monster energy falls on the demon spirit stone and is exposed, it will be tragic.

So how dare Xiao Zhuoran try it.

However, Zhou You said: "Isn't there another track?"

There are two directions for a princess to find a bride.

One is to rely on bloodline to be shortlisted. As long as you have a bloodline above the heaven level, you can be directly shortlisted.

Secondly, the requirements for bloodline are not that high.

As long as you have reached the level of cultivation above the transformation stage, that is, the Nascent Soul stage, you can sign up for the audition, and this audition is very simple. Nascent Soul vs. Yuanying, Transformation God vs. Transformation God, come directly to the most realistic battle.

Only one person is selected from each realm, and the final winner can be shortlisted.

In other words, Yuanying, Transformation, and Crossing the Disaster Stage each take one person, and in the end there are only three.

After all, this is a recruitment, not a draft, so naturally there will be a lot of effort, and the better the shortlist, the better.

After being shortlisted, compete with those of heavenly bloodline.

As for how to compete in the future and how Princess Qianqian will choose a husband, these have not been announced for the time being. We will only know after the finalists.

What Zhou You wanted Xiao Zhuoran to participate in was the second audition track.

After hearing Zhou You's words, Xiao Zhuoran couldn't help but look strange: "Do you really want me to sign up for the audition?"

Zhou Youdao: "This is our only chance to get in touch with Princess Qianqian, what do you think?"

Xiao Zhuoran asked: "Are you going to participate?"

Zhou You looked up at the high platform: "Let me test my bloodline. Maybe I can be directly shortlisted."

Xiao Zhuoran: "..."

In the end, Xiao Zhuoran had no choice but to head towards the audition registration location, while Zhou You chose an opportunity and flew to the high platform.

Looking at the two evil beasts in the Doom period close at hand, Zhou You's face was red and his heart was not beating. The evil energy on his body swept over and landed on the demon spirit stone.

Before the demon spirit stone changed, the two demon beasts in the disaster period suddenly looked at Zhou You, their eyes shrank slightly, and they stood up the moment they were originally sitting. (End of chapter)
