It’s too difficult to cultivate monsters, so I’ll just farm monsters.

Chapter 90 The mysterious ancient city, all kinds of bizarre things

The direction is finalized.

The team immediately took action and headed to the palace together.

The palace building is located in the center of the ancient city, and it is not a short journey from the edge.

During the journey, Jiang Xun and others kept an eye on the situation in the city.

But as the four people observed beforehand, the ancient city as a whole was a "dead" city.

Death in the true sense.

There is no breath of life.

There are no traces of biological activity.

some.

Just dilapidated and decaying low-rise buildings.

Walking through the ancient city, which is full of unknowns and extremely subtle, the four people were highly nervous.

A place like a secret realm.

The more abnormal the phenomenon, the more danger it indicates.

of course.

Danger and reward often go hand in hand.

The more dangerous, the greater the reward.

……

Not long after, the four of them came to the palace building in the city.

Standing still, Jiang Xun looked around.

"I'm going to explore the surroundings of the palace. Brother Long, you go up to the top of the palace first and see what's going on on the top floor of the palace."

"If there is no problem, Brother Long, please hurry up and make arrangements for the night. Weiyang will be there at that time, and Xiaoyu will take Xiaobai down to check every floor of the palace, and try to finish everything before nightfall."

While speaking, Jiang Xun glanced at Xiaobai, who was sleeping soundly on Zhu Weiyang's shoulder.

Xiaobai then opened his eyes, moved reluctantly, flew up and landed on Chen Xiaoyu's shoulder, his golden eyes widened.

Although Xiaobai looks very similar to the Snowy Owl, the only diurnal creature among the owls, it is actually a fairly standard nocturnal creature.

The little guy is not only sleepy during the day, but also too lazy to move.

In peacetime, Jiang Xundao will not have to reverse its ecological habits.

But this will be the time to use it.

As a spiritual beast of heaven and earth, Xiaobai is quite sensitive in all aspects.

Many things that cannot be discovered by spiritual perception can be discovered through hunting instinct.

Chen Xiaoyu saw Xiaobai, who looked cute at first glance and was inexplicably handsome when he opened his eyes, coming to his shoulder. He poked the little guy's furry belly and wagged his tail.

this little guy.

She had been craving for it for a long time.

Unfortunately, the little thing was drowsy all day long and was not very active after nightfall. It only became energetic when Zhu Weiyang fed it, so she had no chance to play with it even if she wanted to.

Here.

Jiang Xun woke up Xiaobai and gave him instructions from his heart, and nodded with the three of them to go away.

Upon seeing this, Tang Long and others looked at each other and rose into the air respectively.

Then the three of them dispersed in a silent understanding and went around the palace for a rough inspection.

The palace as a whole has nine floors.

The floors are wider at the bottom and narrower at the top.

There are about four to five meters of space between each floor, and each floor has a "viewing" terrace.

The palace is in ruins.

All floors above and below lose their enclosure, allowing direct access from the outside even without terraces.

Meet on the top terrace of the palace.

The three of them stood still and Zhu Weiyang spoke.

"When I looked inside at the gap on the sixth floor, I found several abandoned bird's nests. They looked messy and had been abandoned for a while, but apparently birds had lived on the sixth floor before. Sister Xiaoyu, you can go down later. Check first."

"learn."

Chen Xiaoyu responded.

Before he finished speaking, Tang Long took off his mask and let out a breath.

"It's good if there are traces of biological activity. If there are no traces at all, to be honest, I feel a little guilty."

Chen Xiaoyu laughed when he heard this, took off his mask and said.

"Brother Long is a man after all. Can you be braver?"

“Be brave but also be talented!”

Tang Long smiled bitterly and said.

"I'm just an ordinary formation master, not the Air Force boss of the Weiyang family. If I'm too courageous, I'll die suddenly."

Zhu Weiyang was about to take off her mask and breathe some fresh air. She paused when she heard the sound, glanced at Tang Long and summoned Yunxian, took out three thunder talismans and handed them over.

"I have been cultivating these three thunder talismans for a long time. Among them are the talisman imprints I made with my secret method. One of them can withstand my full blow. Anyone can use it without losing its power. Brother Long, take it. Defend yourself.”

"..."

Tang Long.

He just joked casually to relieve his highly tense mental state. Who would have thought that Weiyang girl was so down-to-earth?
He felt that he might have grasped a new way of getting along with Zhu Weiyang in the future.

Not being polite to Miss Weiyang, Tang Long took the Thunder Talisman and kept it as a substitute, saying.

"Let's go, let's explore the top floor quickly."

As he spoke, he immediately walked out from the entrance to the top terrace.

When Chen Xiaoyu and Zhu Weiyang followed up, the former waggled his tail and spoke softly.

"Weiyang, your branded thunder talisman..."

"There is no more for now. After all, my time to enter the Three Realms is limited. After I get out, Sister Xiaoyu, you can ask me to customize it if you need it. I will make it cheaper for you then."

Zhu Weiyang whispered.

"Okay!"

Chen Xiaoyu nodded vigorously.

It's true that Talisman Masters are not good at fighting prowess.

But this has nothing to do with whether the talismans in their hands are violent or not.

The talisman master is the talisman master, and the talisman seal is the talisman seal.

Two different things.

Talisman seals that bear the mark of talisman and have been carefully maintained can often withstand the full blow of a talisman master. This is a good thing that can really save your life. You can't even buy it on the market.

The techniques of talisman branding are basically in the hands of the talisman family in the form of undisclosed secrets.

People in the family don't need that little money.

Talisman imprints require a lot of effort to engrave.

After getting it out, I will definitely use it for emergencies, or use it as a gift.

……

Entering the top space of the palace through the terrace, there was no unexpected smell of decay.

What greeted Tang Long and others was a faint fragrance.

Out of instinct, the three of them immediately sealed their mouths and noses.

He raised his eyes and looked around.

Luxurious wooden decorations can be seen everywhere in this large palace room connected to the terrace.

These wooden decorations all reveal a touch of aura.

Although the aura is no longer of high quality and the surrounding areas are even more dusty, the decorations are all well preserved.

Seeing such a scene, Tang Long looked sideways and made a guess.

"Wood fragrance?"

Zhu Weiyang didn't say anything. He took out a small detector and read the reading. He walked to a bookcase by the wall and raised his eyes.

“It’s the woody fragrance that comes from the decoration that’s nice.”

After speaking, she opened her mouth and nose and took a careful breath.

"It's a pity that they are no longer of high quality and can still emit such a delicate fragrance. This fragrance has a faint soothing and calming effect. It's hard to imagine what kind of high quality these decorations were originally."

After hearing what she said, Tang Long and Chen Xiaoyu opened their mouths and noses and closed them.

Then the two of them also tasted the effect of woody fragrance.

After being amazed at this, Tang Long looked at the spider threads all over the corners of the wall and looked around.

In a huge palace room.

There are well-preserved bookshelves, desks, benches, a collapsed bed and a strange-looking incense burner.

"This whole room seems to be used as a bedroom. It seems that it is either for the palace owner's personal enjoyment or for entertaining guests."

After speaking, Tang Long said.

"We will spend the night in this room tonight. There is a terrace outside which is suitable for observation. I will start to arrange it now. Weiyang, please accompany Xiaoyu to check out the other rooms on the top floor, and then come to me."

While speaking, he took out the spirit beast bag and released Lao Hei.

Only two days have passed, and Lao Heiyuan is still far from making up for it.

However, with enough Qi-Building Pills and blood food to fill it up, its physical body has recovered a lot, and its strength has also recovered a little.

After all, it is a spiritual beast of heaven and earth, and its vitality is strong enough.

Seeing that Tang Long released Lao Hei as a guarantee, Zhu Weiyang said "hmm" and glanced at Chen Xiaoyu, who understood that the two of them walked away together.

……at the same time.

On the ground of the ancient city, Jiang Xun had already circled the palace.

There is no substantial discovery.

However, he has confirmed that there are main entrances on all sides of the palace. It is estimated that the palace also functions as a governing body, and each entrance is for the convenience of various personnel.

Other than that.

The bungalow buildings adjacent to the palace are generally one size larger than those outside.

Buildings facing the street basically have a wide portal facing the street, giving them a sense of familiarity as a merchant.

Obvious.

The palace is adjacent to what was once the "business district" of the ancient city.

But even in the "business district" area, they are still all square and square two-story bungalows.

Such a pattern.

I have to say it's a little subtle.

Since there is a "business district", there must be hotels, restaurants and other stores where people require large space, right?
How can these needs be met with only two floors?
Is it because the Lord of the Ancient City doesn't allow it, or is it because of some special restrictions?

Secretly wondering, Jiang Xun walked into a nearby "shop".

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a pile of rotten wooden shelves against the wall, with various or broken bottles and cans buried in them.

These……

Is it a commodity?
Step forward and pick up a relatively intact bottle.

Jiang Xun was about to wipe it clean and take a look when he suddenly felt something rolling in the bottle.

Subconsciously removing the cork, he was shocked to find two well-preserved pills inside.

!

Jiang Xun's eyes widened at that time.

The bottle looks like a porcelain bottle.

The style is used to hold the elixir before it escapes.

But the fact that the two elixirs inside could be preserved so well was beyond his expectation.

After pouring out the elixir, Jiang Xun rubbed it gently.

The dust on the surface of the elixir is gone.

The elixir body is round and the whole body is milky white.

No longer covered by dust, a faint medicinal fragrance spread out.

Ok.

This Danxiang.

At least level four.

Savoring the aroma of the medicine and its restrained and abundant aura, it doesn't seem like the grade has declined.

This is obviously wrong!
So much time has passed.

The potency of the elixir will inevitably decline.

There is no reason why the elixir itself is well preserved and has full medicinal effect.

After examining the elixir for a while, Jiang Xun turned over and put it away.

It was getting dark outside, so there was no time to delve deeper.

Since there are elixirs with full medicinal effects and good preservation, no matter what the effects are, let's put them away for now.

Picking up another porcelain bottle, Jiang Xun was surprised to find that there were also pills in this bottle, and there were six pills in one person.

It is also well preserved and has full medicinal effect, but it is severely dusty.

Without thinking much, Jiang Xuntai used his skill to smash the piled up rotten wooden shelves together with all the buried porcelain bottles with a slap of his hand, and his spiritual consciousness was emitted in a targeted manner.

Then, he raised his hand and held it in the air.

The devil of freedom.

Reach for the stars.

Immediately, more than 500 round pills were ingested from the air.

!

Jiang Xun.

This quantity of elixir.

Nothing to say.

The highest level four in terms of quality.

Most of the remaining ones are third-order, and a small amount are second-order.

Get rich!

Jiang waved his hand and put all the elixirs into the storage bag. He searched for them for a while, but when he found nothing else, he walked out of the back door of the store and walked into another store.

Exactly the same as the previous one.

There is also a pile of crumbling wooden shelves in the corner.

But what was buried in the pile of wooden shelves was not porcelain bottles, but well-preserved wooden boxes one after another.

Take one and open it.

Among them is a flying sword with a unique shape and restrained aura.

Treasure!

Jiang Xun was surprised at that time.

Caress the flying sword.

The texture is excellent, and it is definitely top-grade.

Following the same example, Jiang Xun shattered the piles of wooden shelves with one palm of his hand. Jiang Xun quickly harvested more than seventy treasures of different styles, including mostly swords and some strange treasures.

After two consecutive stores, Jiang Xun wasted no time and walked into the third "store".

There are also rotten wooden shelves in the corner of this room, with wooden boxes buried in them.

Take one and open it.

Jiang Xun found that there were only some shriveled plant roots inside, and there was an extremely weak aura emanating from them.

This is……

Remains of the elixir?

Jiang Xun opened several wooden boxes in succession, feeling heartbroken.

The wooden boxes in this "shop" are all opened with shriveled plant roots, which are obviously the last traces left behind after the elixir has withered under the ravages of time.

Feeling sad, Jiang Xun couldn't help but wonder.

The "shelf life" of a simple elixir is definitely not as long as that of a refined elixir.

Not to mention treasures.

But the elixir has withered to this level of virtue. How can the elixir be preserved so well?

With questions in mind, Jiang Xun came to the fourth store.

The same piles of rotten wooden shelves.

This time there were no wooden boxes, porcelain bottles or the like buried inside, but rather pieces of metal-like things.

Pick up a piece.

Jiang Xun was a good guy back then.

Metal spiritual material!

It's a pity that when exposed to the outside, the aura has dissipated and is of no use.

Jiang Xun didn't feel sorry for the remnants of the previous elixir.

And as far as I can see, the metal spiritual materials buried in the rotten wooden shelves are very small pieces. They are not so much taken out for sale as for display on the counter.

Looking back at the elixirs I got beforehand, the more than 500 elixirs were not all the same.

The types in each bottle are different, which seems to be for display purposes.

Such a product.

An idea suddenly appeared in Jiang Xun's mind.

Could it be that the shops facing the street belong to the same company and only display goods?

After the transaction is completed, will additional goods be picked up from the warehouse?

With such an idea, Jiang Xun couldn't help but feel excited.

Warehouse! ?
There should be a lot of babies?

But then he frowned again.

With the building specifications of the ancient city, where can it be used as a warehouse for a "big business owner"?

Unconsciously, he looked towards the nearby palace.

At this moment, Zhu Weiyang's message rang in his ears.

"Brother Xun, look at the east mountain wall, fly higher and look down."

?

Jiang Xun made a question mark.

Quickly walking out of the store, he glanced at the tall palace building, rose up in the air to a position that was level with the top floor of the palace, and then looked east.

This sight gave him goosebumps all over his body.

I saw that the tall mountain in the north of the ancient city was inlaid with pieces that looked like tablets. The large piece looked so dazzling in the reflection of the setting sun.
