Chapter 776 Jinghai City
More than two months later.
At the edge of Qingzhou's coastline, two men in green clothes, who looked exhausted, flew over on flying swords.
One was a middle-aged man with a sturdy figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the other was a thin young man with an ordinary face.
Judging from the fluctuations of the breath, the middle-aged man was in the middle stage of foundation building, while the young man was in the early stage.
Needless to say, this is Zhan Nianchuan and the puppet Dagui.
After a full month of comprehending the secret art of transforming consciousness into a thousand, Zhan Nianchuan tore a small piece of his soul according to the secret art.
After a period of nourishment, he integrated his own spiritual will and part of his memory into it, and then injected it into the body of the Dagui, making the Dagui have the spiritual temperament of a human being, and it is almost impossible to tell that it is a puppet.
The control is also more flexible, and it can even perform magic.
In this way, Zhan Nianchuan can control the Dagui to do many dangerous or inconvenient things without exposing himself. But the shortcomings are also obvious.
First of all, the flexible control distance is not far, it is only effective within 500 feet, and the puppet will not obey beyond this distance.
Secondly, the strength and toughness of the soul fragments in the puppet are definitely not comparable to Zhan Nianchuan, which is only equivalent to the second level of Qi Condensation. If someone knows the secret technique of soul attack and directly attacks the soul in the puppet, the puppet will lose its combat effectiveness in an instant.
And Zhan Nianchuan, as the main body, will also be greatly affected by the damage of the split soul.
In short, the benefits are great, but the troubles are also not small.
However, this is not difficult for Zhan Nianchuan, who is knowledgeable and has strong hands-on ability.
It took him a whole month and failed more than ten times before he arranged a miniature soul-locking array on the puppet.
Although it would consume the spiritual power of the top-grade spirit stone to maintain the operation of the array, it was still within an acceptable range.
He used the lion's roar to test it many times on the flying boat, and finally guessed that it could resist the soul attack launched by the Jindan realm cultivator.
In this way, plus a defensive magic weapon that he had obtained earlier that could resist the attacks of the souls of late Jindan cultivators, he could barely guarantee the safety of the soul of the big puppet.
Before he arrived at Jinghai City, he couldn't wait to take the big puppet out.
In any occasion, he pretended to be the follower of the big puppet, and even controlled the big puppet to chat and laugh with others in front, while he was in a daze or doing other things dozens of feet away.
Sometimes he deliberately provoked several foundation-building and Jindan cultivators, but no one discovered the true identity of the big puppet.
In this way, he was relieved.
......
After flying forward for hundreds of miles again, the outline of a large peninsula vaguely appeared in front of Zhan Nianchuan.
As the distance got closer, the vision became clearer and clearer, and a very shocking picture came into his eyes.
As shown on the map, it is not so much an island as a magnificent city covering tens of thousands of miles with magnificent momentum!
At the edge of the peninsula, hundreds of feet high, the entire body is made of huge rocks weighing hundreds of thousands of pounds. The ancient and heavy black-brown city wall is winding and blocking out the sky.
There is a city gate in the north, south and west of the city wall, and the side facing the endless sea is full of towering city walls.
In the sky above the city wall, from time to time, various colors of escape lights and birds and beasts fly from afar and fall directly into the city.
Judging from their escape speed, they are obviously extremely powerful cultivators, and there are even several cultivators in the Jindan realm.
From this, we can imagine the powerful strength of Jinghai City.
Ten thousand years ago, there was a fierce friction and conflict between the human race and the sea monsters, and the casualties of cultivators and monsters on both sides were in the billions.
In order to resist the beast tides launched by the sea monsters from time to time, protect the innocent civilians who died, and build the first line of defense against the sea monsters, the emperors of all generations have allocated huge funds and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build ten huge cities in the eastern coastal area, known as the "Ten Sea-Resistant Cities".
And Jinghai City is one of them!
The information about this majestic city emerged in his mind, and Zhan Nianchuan was also in awe and stayed in the air for a long time. In his eyes, it seemed that countless human ancestors fought fiercely with the sea monsters to protect innocent people and fought bloody battles.
After his mood calmed down a little, he reduced his speed and altitude and slowly flew towards Jinghai City.
As the distance got closer, a solemn and murderous atmosphere came to his face. He could already see countless traces of knife and axe chopping on the hard and thick city walls, as well as many thick claw marks and scratches, silently explaining the cruelty of the war that year!
And this is only the back of Jinghai City to the sea!
According to the information provided by Gan Weiwei, Jinghai City was captured three times over the past ten thousand years, even with solid walls and tens of millions of monks stationed there.
Each time, countless monks from the Great Jin Dynasty gathered together and fought countless tragic battles before they managed to recapture the city with great difficulty.
It can be said that this city has witnessed the rise of countless geniuses and their glory. It has also witnessed the end of countless heroes, with no remains left.
Now, he is here and will continue to tell his story.
......
When he arrived five miles away from Jinghai City, an invisible gravity suddenly acted on him, greatly reducing his flying speed.
Knowing that this must be the forbidden air formation of Jinghai City, Zhan Nianchuan lowered his light and observed everything around him.
To his surprise, the people walking around were all mortals, monks, and a few demon cultivators.
Unlike the spirit beasts of ordinary monks, these were demon cultivators in the territory of the Great Jin Dynasty, and were also under the jurisdiction of the Great Jin Dynasty, so they also shouldered the heavy responsibility of fighting against sea monsters.
There was no hustle and bustle that was common at the entrance to the city. These monks and demon cultivators were silent and soon came to a layer of white light curtain in front of the city gate.
They did not stop at all and went straight through. All the demon cultivators had a small iron plate on their bodies, which would glow slightly when passing through the white light curtain. It seemed that this was a restriction for checking identity.
After watching for a while, Zhan Nianchuan also stepped in front of Jinghai City.
The tall city wall blocked the sunlight and cast a large shadow on the ground.
The three red characters "Jinghai West" were engraved on the top, with silver hooks and iron strokes, exuding a breath of killing and killing, which was breathtaking.
The writing of this word is really domineering. He admired it in his heart, then looked away and looked at the arched city gate in front of him, which was more than a hundred feet wide.
Countless mortals, cultivators and demon cultivators came in and out. In front of the gate, there was a team of soldiers wearing iron armor, holding long spears and with stern faces. The leader was actually a cultivator in the middle stage of Jindan!
What surprised him a little was that this red-faced, tall old man was looking at him in surprise.
What's going on?
Zhan Nianchuan's mind was racing, and he didn't dare to neglect and stepped forward to bow deeply, "Hello, senior."
The old man nodded lightly, "Young man, you are very good. You can actually look directly at the handwriting of Master Wan Jianyi without being drowsy. Your spirit is really strong. What are you doing here?"
Wan Jianyi?
The iron-blooded strongman who led the human army to recapture Jinghai City thousands of years ago? No wonder this word is so arrogant and domineering, implying an extremely sharp sword intent, which makes people tremble.
After Zhan Nianchuan understood, he immediately answered, "I am a casual cultivator, and I always have a headache about insufficient cultivation resources. This time I came to Jinghai City to kill sea monsters and earn military merit."
Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised, and their eyes looking at Zhan Nianchuan were much softer.
Unlike the cultivators who were sent by the sect and forced to enter Jinghai City, these casual cultivators who wanted to earn military merits and obtain cultivation resources were mostly low-key, but they were more brave in combat and had stronger combat effectiveness, and were the objects that everyone liked.
The red-faced old man immediately boasted, "Boy, you are really good, but it's a pity that your cultivation is too low, otherwise you can join my team. After you enter the city, go to the teleportation array on the right and say that you want to join the army, and someone will come to receive you. Go."
Thanking the red-faced old man, Zhan Nianchuan strode into the white light curtain with the rolling crowd.
