Moon Pavilion
Time flowed by like a white steed flitting by a crack. It had been over twenty days since Zhuowen returned from the Appraiser Pavilion. A month's time had passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, Zhuowen had basically been in seclusion in his room. The power of Master Yan Huo's Black Flame Sky Explosion was too terrifying. Although he had barely escaped with the help of his advanced Spear Intent, Zhuowen had suffered serious internal injuries.
Zhuowen had spent half a month recuperating from his internal injuries. He had basically used the remaining time to meditate and cultivate. At the same time, he had used the Earth Fire to temper the strength of his body. Zhuowen had a feeling that the Great Nirvana Sun might have a breakthrough in the near future.
"If I use the Phoenix Blood Essence to temper the body, I should be able to cultivate the Great Nirvana Sun to the second stage, the Destruction Realm."
In the room, Zhuowen slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was flickering. He waved his right hand and a drop of dazzling golden liquid floated before him. It was the drop of Phoenix Blood Essence that he had extracted from the Fire Bird's Plume Feather.
The Phoenix Blood Essence contained extremely hot energy. It was most suitable for tempering the body. Moreover, the Great Nirvana Sun had a certain relationship with the Phoenix. The combination of the two would definitely allow Zhuowen's body to reach an extremely powerful effect.
"Now is not the time. When the Great Nirvana Sun is about to break through, it will require an extremely large amount of hot energy. That would be the best time to use the Phoenix Blood Essence."
His eyes flashed slightly. Zhuowen still kept the Phoenix Blood Essence in front of him. Although the Phoenix Blood Essence was extremely powerful, Zhuowen only had one drop. If he used it now and did not succeed in breaking through, then the loss would outweigh the gain.
"How good would it be if I had a few more drops of Phoenix Blood Essence!" Thinking of this, Zhuowen could not help but sigh softly.
Dong dong dong!
A hurried knock on the door caused Zhuowen to frown slightly. He said, "Come in." The door was opened and the sloppy Lü Hantian walked in.
"Big Brother?
Why are you here today? "Seeing Lü Hantian come in, Zhuowen revealed a smile.
"Brat, you're really a freak. You've already arrived at the Imperial City, yet you've been cooped up in your room all this time!
Tomorrow, we'll be heading to the World Suppressing Formation and entering the Imperial City. Don't you plan to go out and play today? "
Lü Hantian sat at the table in the middle of the room without any trace of politeness. He casually took a sip of herbal tea and looked at Zhuowen who was sitting on the praying mat like an ascetic monk. He couldn't help but shake his head speechlessly.
"The War of the Nine Counties is imminent. How can I slack off?" Zhuo Wen faintly smiled.
Looking at the young man in front of him, Lü Hantian could not help but nod. Zhuowen had talent, perseverance, and luck. It was not a coincidence that he was able to walk step by step from a low-level city to where he was now.
"Although what you said is not wrong, today is the last day. Even if you cultivate, you won't be able to gain much!
Go out and play with your big brother. I heard that today, there will be a grand event in the Drunken Spring Pavilion. Countless young talents from the Imperial City will be participating. You can't miss it. "
Lü Hantian very casually came to Zhuowen's side. He revealed a vulgar smile and put his arm around Zhuowen's shoulder.
Zhuowen knew that Lü Hantian's attitude meant that his desire to continue cultivating was basically dashed. It just so happened that he also felt that there was nothing to gain from continuing to cultivate. Therefore, he spread out his hands and said: "Okay!
Today, I'll relax a little. "
"Haha!
That's my good brother, Lü Hantian. "
Lü Hantian laughed and patted Zhuowen's shoulder. He suddenly said: "Zhuowen, do you know that during the time you were in seclusion, a big event happened in the Imperial City?"
"Oh?
Big event? "Hearing this, Zhuowen immediately became interested and asked.
"It is said that the Holy Maiden of the Burning Heaven Sect personally came to the Imperial City. She wishes to observe the War of the Nine Counties tomorrow. For this reason, many young talents in the Imperial City are rubbing their hands together. They want to perform well in the War of the Nine Counties. This time, the War of the Nine Counties will undoubtedly become very intense." Lü Hantian suddenly said in a serious tone.
"What?
The Holy Maiden of the Burning Heaven Sect came to the Imperial City? "
Hearing this, Zhuowen's eyes narrowed. He couldn't help but think about twenty days ago. In the sky above the Imperial City, there was a beautiful figure with a light veil covering her face as she rode a huge Vermillion Bird into the Imperial City.
Although that beautiful figure had a unique temperament and her background was definitely not weak, he didn't expect her background to be so deep. She was actually the Holy Maiden of the Burning Heaven Sect.
The Heavenly Armor Continent was divided into five major regions. Their Qing Xuan Empire was located in the eastern region of the continent, called the Eastern Land. And the largest power in the Eastern Land was undoubtedly the Blue Dragon Hall.
The southern region of the Heavenly Armor Continent was called the Southern Barbarian. And the strongest power in the Southern Barbarian was the Burning Heaven Sect. Speaking of which, the Burning Heaven Sect's power wasn't the slightest bit inferior to the Blue Dragon Hall. They were both colossal powers in the Heavenly Armor Continent.
And the Burning Heaven Sect's Holy Maiden was personally selected by the Burning Heaven Sect's Sect Master. She was the most outstanding monstrous genius of her generation. Her status and identity were lofty existences in the Burning Heaven Sect. If there were no accidents, she could basically become the next Sect Master of the Burning Heaven Sect.
It could be said that the status of the Burning Heaven Sect's Holy Maiden was definitely much higher than the Qing Emperor of the Qing Xuan Empire. She was a peerless heaven's pride comparable to the Blue Dragon Hall's Holy Maiden. The arrival of such a character in the Imperial City would naturally cause a huge uproar.
"Zhuowen!
The Burning Heaven Sect's Holy Maiden. Brat, if you can catch the Holy Maiden's fancy, your future will definitely be smooth and limitless. "
Lü Hantian licked his face and said with a rather vulgar smile. That expression made Zhuowen only want to give him a slap.
Shaking his head, Zhuowen really didn't have any interest in the Burning Heaven Sect's Holy Maiden. She was a heaven's pride. Her status was even higher than the Qing Emperor's. How could she possibly fancy a lowly brat like him?
Zhuowen's principle had always been to be down-to-earth and not to reach the heavens in a single bound. In his opinion, only things that he obtained through his own efforts could truly belong to him. As for relying on a huge power as his backing, Zhuowen didn't really like it.
"This kind of thing is too far away for me!" Zhuowen shook his head and said rather calmly.
"That's right!
The Burning Heaven Sect is really too big. We really can't climb up to them. Let's go, let's go to the Wind Flower District first!
I heard that there's a big gathering in the Wind Flower District tonight. All the young talents in the Imperial Capital will basically gather here. "Lü Hantian said with a big laugh.
"Big gathering?
What gathering? "Zhuowen asked in confusion.
"Hehe!
You'll know when you get there. There are still people waiting for us downstairs. Don't let them wait for too long. "Lü Hantian said mysteriously.
Zhuowen helplessly shrugged his shoulders and could only follow Lü Hantian out of the room. He saw that there were indeed six people quietly waiting downstairs.
These six people were none other than the genius representatives of Muqin County: Lü Yitao, Luo Xing, Qing Lian, Qin Batian, and Ling Wushuang. Beside the five of them was the dignified Lü Nantian who wore a purple robe.
Lü Hantian and Zhuowen greeted the six people and walked towards the Wind Flower District in front of the Drunken Spring Pavilion.
After not coming out for a long time, Zhuowen discovered that the number of people in the Drunken Spring Pavilion had actually increased by several times compared to before. At a glance, all of them were basically martial artists with powerful auras. Moreover, these martial artists' ages were basically similar to them.
"During the time you were in seclusion, the geniuses from other counties basically arrived in the Imperial Capital. The Drunken Spring Pavilion is one of the largest inns in the Imperial Capital. Naturally, it attracted many geniuses from other counties to stay."
Seeing Zhuowen's puzzled expression, Lü Hantian softly explained a few words, which made Zhuowen suddenly feel enlightened. It seemed that the Drunken Spring Pavilion's reputation was indeed quite big. It could actually attract so many geniuses from other counties.
After passing through the Snow Moon District and entering the Wind Flower District, Zhuowen was astonished to discover that the Wind Flower District was actually bustling with people coming and going.
"Looks like many people arrived much earlier than us!
I wonder if there are any seats left? "
Looking at the sea of people in the Wind Flower District, Lü Hantian frowned slightly, and his expression was slightly displeased. After some squeezing, the group of eight finally arrived at the core area of the Wind Flower District.
The core area of the Wind Flower District was naturally the enormous stage that stood in the center. Around the stage were numerous pavilions, terraces, and pavilions. The positions of these pavilions were just right, and one could clearly see the graceful and graceful dancers on the stage.
At the very front of these pavilions, there was an enormous pagoda-shaped pavilion. At the top of the pagoda-shaped pavilion, there was a large area. At this moment, there were many people sitting in that area. These people all had powerful auras and were dressed in luxurious clothes. It was obvious that they were not ordinary people.
"This is the Moon Embracing Pavilion, the most luxurious and high-end pavilion in the Wind Flower District. It is also the best place to view the scenery. Let's go up as well!" Lü Nantian softly laughed.
As he spoke, Lü Nantian led the people behind him and headed towards the Moon Embracing Pavilion. After confirming that Lü Nantian was the Lord of Muqin County, the guards of the Moon Embracing Pavilion did not stop them too much.
The Moon Embracing Pavilion was the most luxurious pavilion in the Wind Flower District. Normally, the people it entertained were all people of prominent status. Lu Nantian, as the lord of a county, naturally had the qualifications to bring people into the Moon Embracing Pavilion.
The area at the top of the Moon Embracing Pavilion was indeed extremely large. At a glance, it could accommodate hundreds of people without a problem. At this moment, there were not many people in the Moon Embracing Pavilion. In such a large area, it seemed rather deserted.
"Brother Lü!
You guys are here too. You guys came quite early this time! "
A warm voice suddenly sounded. Lü Nantian and the others looked over and immediately saw a smiling Qiu Changsheng leading Qiu Shaoyun and a few other juniors towards Lü Nantian and the others.
"Brother Qiu!
You came even earlier. We just arrived and saw you here. "Lü Nantian said politely.
"We also just arrived not long ago. Come, let's sit by the window and chat slowly!" Qiu Changsheng said rather enthusiastically.
Lü Nantian nodded and led Zhuowen and the others to a seat by the window. Through the window, they looked down at the densely packed people below like a swarm of ants. Zhuowen felt a feeling of looking down at the mountains, as if everything was under his control.
No wonder high officials and dignitaries liked to climb up to the Moon Embracing Pavilion. This feeling of looking down on all living things and being high above was extremely enjoyable for those people in high positions.
Thinking of this feeling, Zhuowen could not help but shake his head. This Drunken Spring Pavilion really knew how to do business. They could actually figure out the psychology of these high officials and dignitaries. No wonder people were willing to spend a lot of money in this Drunken Spring Pavilion.
