Chapter 1976: Streamer City
Although it was pitch dark in the spirit beast bag, everyone still had an approximate idea of how much time had passed.
But no one asked anymore. It was obvious that there were some things they were not qualified to know, and even entering the spirit beast bag was to avoid suspicion.
Half a day later, they entered the spirit beast bag again and were released after two and a half days.
They are still at sea at this moment, but from all the signs it can be seen that they are already near the coast.
This time it was Duan Bowen who called a halt. He believed that if they continued to move forward at high speed, they might be discovered by the isolation formation or cultivators.
Over the next two days, the warship slowly approached the coast, carefully avoiding any possible formations.
If we didn't have to adjust the time, we could land in Zhongzhou at night, and the time could be accelerated by probably half a day.
Then the warship slowed down and hunted more than twenty foundation-building sea beasts in the sea.
With the configuration of this team, they can stay alive even if they encounter a Nascent Soul sea beast, and it will be very easy to kill it.
Even other teams had a hard time finding a foundation to build, but they did it easily.
After a day of hunting, a Duan family Jindan sighed, "It's a pity that I didn't encounter a Jindan sea beast."
Then they easily went ashore and pretended to be a team returning from hunting sea beasts.
The scene in Zhongzhou is similar to that in Dongsheng, but the spiritual energy is much richer and can be felt even at the seaside.
However, the patrol here seems to be a little stricter than that in Dongsheng.
After the warship came ashore, it rested for a night. At dawn, some early-rising fishermen came to buy sea beasts.
A foundation-building disciple of the Duan family clearly stated that he did not want to sell it, and several fishermen looked at it with interest for a while.
However, among these fishermen, only one was at the foundation-building stage. Obviously, he could not be a match for the team, so he chatted for a few more minutes and left.
All they talked about was the recent weather and the fishing conditions at sea, and it seemed awkward not to respond.
But after they left, Bo Wen Zhenxian casually said, "It's not just the fishermen."
"Yeah," Qu Jianlei nodded. He should also be a part-time fishing tyrant, and also serve as a spy for the team of cultivators guarding the coast.
After all, if you report it correctly, you can also gain benefits.
It's just that this kind of thing is so common that it's impossible to take it seriously. Duan Bowen said it easily, and Qu Jianlei just listened casually.
The Duan family has lived in Zhongzhou for a long time, and they even have a unique accent, intentionally or unintentionally, so they are almost unsuspecting.
Anyway, everything went so smoothly, and the Duan family members operated smoothly and impeccably.
By the morning, everyone had packed their bags and Duan Bowen launched another flying boat, but it was not the war boat.
The flying boat is slightly larger than the war boat, but the internal space is much larger.
When the flight reached the evening, the flying boat stopped outside a small town for one night.
The town here is very large, and its area is almost as large as that of Yanjiafang City. There are at least 30,000 to 40,000 residents in it.
This is Zhongzhou. Although the layout of the houses and other things is similar to Dongsheng, it is much more prosperous.
The key is that this continent is too big, with millions of kilometers in length and width. No matter how many people there are, the place is not big enough.
Immortal Bowen looked down on the small town here, saying that it was a remote place and he planned to move on.
The town also has a teleportation array, after all, it is not small in scale, but because it is close to the sea, the inspection is relatively strict.
Moreover, the teleportation array is not big, and it seems that the teleportation experience is a little worse. Anyway, the Duan family is quite reluctant to leave here.
Qu Jianlei and the other six followed them until two days later, when the flying boat stopped in a larger town.
The main urban area of this town covers an area of more than one thousand square kilometers, with scattered villages around it.
The population is at least several hundred thousand, but Qu Jianlei didn't have a careful sense of the exact number.
This place is called Wanghai East City. It is quite a big city and its teleportation facilities are much stronger.
Duan Bowen is going to lead his disciples and return from here, and Qu Jianlei and the others are also going to find a place to stay.
At this point, the two sides can go their separate ways.
Before parting, Immortal Bowen also introduced two places where temporary identities could be issued, mainly for taking the teleportation array.
Qu Jianlei and others had no plans to live in Linhai East City for a long time. After all, it was too close to the sea.
Strictly speaking, this place is about 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers away from the sea, which is not very close, but Zhongzhou is so big that it is relatively not far.
They went to one of them first, which was a large courtyard facing the street with a large sign hanging on it, indicating a business that transported goods.
There were two Jindan in the shop. They were slightly surprised when they suddenly saw three Jindan walking in.
The business company opens the teleportation pass token mainly to facilitate some small suppliers. Such a large caravan is rare.
However, Zhongzhou is so big that all kinds of things are possible. The case of a white dragon fish being subdued is not uncommon.
Anyway, they just take the money and issue the talisman, and they are too lazy to even verify the other party's true identity.
Given that the two parties have never dealt with each other before, the charges will definitely be the highest possible, and there is nothing to negotiate about.
In addition, they also have to check the goods carried by the other party.
However, this inspection was limited to the situation at that time.
If the other party takes another storage bag with him after going out, it is none of their business.
This response seems to be purely a matter of procedure, but in fact it is not entirely true.
Those who are willing to spend money to apply for a pass basically don't want to cause trouble.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be safer to just use the flying boat to travel? It's just a little slower.
And if someone really does something terribly evil, it will definitely attract the attention of the Nascent Soul.
When Yuanying appears, there are many more methods, including but not limited to divination, aura tracking...
Simply put, this is generally a convenience measure. By adding this process, more money can be collected.
Qu Jianlei and his five companions got their passes and were not in a hurry to leave. Instead, they chose a high-end inn to stay in.
They wandered around for three days before stepping onto the teleportation array and were teleported to another slightly larger town, Liuguang City.
Liuguang City is more than 300,000 kilometers away from Wanghai East City. Although it is not very prosperous, it is somewhat not remote.
This city is defined as a place for leisure and travel. Not only does it have pleasant scenery, but it also has a prosperous business.
Before coming, Qu Jianlei and others had already made relevant plans and planned to settle here first.
All the conditions here are good, but there is only one word to describe it: expensive!
They now rent a small yard in the far suburbs of the city, covering an area of about 10,000 square meters.
The yard doesn't look luxurious, but it has everything. In addition to various equipment and facilities, there are also defense arrays and spirit gathering arrays.
If the spirit gathering array is opened to the maximum, it can even provide support for golden elixir cultivation.
But this is just a gimmick, for the convenience of making the golden elixir when needed, and it is definitely not suitable for long-term practice.
But there is no doubt that if one or two Jindan live here, their cultivation will definitely not decline.
In other words, once the spirit gathering array is activated, the cultivation effect here will be stronger than that of the second-level spirit vein.
Such courtyards can be found everywhere in Liuguang City, and they are a great place for wealthy people to relax.
The courtyard that Qu Jianlei and his friends rented was neither good nor bad. It was a truly luxurious place that could accommodate Nascent Soul cultivators for short periods of time.
The surrounding environment of the yard is also good. The yards are all of similar size and the distances between them are not close.
So even if this place is not a high-end residential area, it is still slightly above average.
However, the rental fee for such a courtyard is not low, 360 spirit stones a day, and 10,000 for a whole month.
You should know that Qu Jianlei and his men only spent 300,000 spirit stones to buy Hongye Ridge, a hundred square kilometers of land with a term of one hundred years.
All I can say is that the prices in Zhongzhou are indeed not low, especially in Liuguang City.
They chose to rent for three months, paying a rent of 30,000 spirit stones and a deposit of 100,000.
Over the next ten days or so, the six of them took turns going out for a stroll and buying a lot of things, looking like they had no shortage of money.
Anyway, on the surface, they have three Jindan Zhenren, so they are not afraid of being targeted.
Although Zhongzhou has far more Nascent Souls than Dongsheng, Golden Cores are still a high-end combat force.
Every night, the courtyard's defense formation would be fully activated, but it was normal to have such precautions, as the Three Golden Pills were not invincible after all.
That night, Qu Jianlei sneaked underground quietly. He temporarily built a stone chamber and set up a teleportation array.
He wanted to try whether his teleportation array could teleport people from Zhongzhou to Hongye Ridge.
If this test is successful, then everything that comes next will go much more smoothly.
The defense formation was activated because they were worried that the fluctuation of spatial energy would alert other practitioners.
The next moment, an extremely slight energy fluctuation was heard, and then the defense formation suddenly trembled.
"Damn..." Qu Jianlei's body swayed and he landed on the ground, "I was careless."
Fortunately, Qing Hu and others were also on full alert, and when they noticed something was wrong, they reacted quickly.
Claire and the other three were sitting in the yard drinking. Tianyin slammed the table and glared at Corona, "What did you say? You're looking for death!"
"Hey, you're the only one allowed to curse?" Corona kicked over the table, "Do you think I'm easy to bully?"
The cultivators living around here all have very high cultivation bases, and there are even a few who have reached the Golden Core stage.
They noticed something unusual happening in this courtyard and couldn't help but pay attention to it.
In this area, everyone is very careful about privacy, and no one will use spiritual sense to investigate unless absolutely necessary.
But the two women's shouting and cursing were quite loud, and even without using spiritual sense, one could detect it with a little attention.
So one after another, the attention was withdrawn, saying that it was nothing more than two Kun cultivators who got drunk and had an argument - there might even be some physical conflict.
As for what kind of conflict can cause the defense formation to shake, that is not the point.
The key is that the defensive formation does not shake too violently, so even if any accidents occur, they will not be serious.
Moreover, it is quite normal for some minor conflicts between cultivators to lead to moderate fights.
However, there were a few neighbors who were too bored to divert their attention.
