Qing Xin Inn
Three days later, Zhuowen left Blue Fire City with Qing Lian and Luo Xing. With the map the fire cultivator fairy had given them, reaching the capital of the Seaside Kingdom was no problem at all.
Moreover, the Duanren Horizon was hidden within the capital, so Zhuowen, Qing Lian, and Luo Xing had to visit the capital.
Nangong Xudu sighed in relief as he watched the three figures gradually disappear into the horizon. Right now, he wanted nothing more than for Zhuowen to leave Blue Fire City as soon as possible.
After witnessing over fifty Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators fall at Zhuowen's hands, Nangong Xudu no longer felt any hatred towards Zhuowen. Zhuowen was just too terrifying. He was so terrifying that he couldn't even think of taking revenge.
In a corner of Blue Fire City, Wu Xia also raised her head to look at the departing figures. There was an unconcealable sense of loss in her eyes. She knew very well that it was impossible for her and Zhuowen to be together. All she could do was silently wish Zhuowen well in her heart.
The Seaside Nation's capital was over 0,555 kilometers away from Azure Fire City. Even Zhuo Wen, Luo Xing, and Qing Lian spent an entire two months before finally arriving at the Seaside Nation's capital.
In the deepest part of the capital, there was a natural danger zone. Cliffs that looked like broken blades were stacked on top of each other in this natural danger zone. This natural danger zone was called Duanren Horizon. It was an extremely famous danger zone in Bianhai Country.
"Let's not be too ostentatious once we enter the capital!
Although the participants are basically randomly distributed between the three nations, the capital of the Seaside Kingdom is the largest city in the Seaside Kingdom. There will definitely be many other participants gathered here. "
Zhuo Wen cautiously reminded when they were near the capital of the Sea Border Country. This caused Luo Xing and Qing Lian to become alert.
The three of them concealed their presences to the limit. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell that they were Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators. If one didn't look carefully on the streets, they wouldn't be able to detect their abnormalities at all.
The capital of the Seaside Kingdom was rather lively. People came and went on the streets, so Zhuowen, Qing Lian, and Luo Xing didn't attract any attention as they walked on the streets.
"Zhuowen!
We can stay in the Peach Blossom Origin Diagram for a year, and only half of that time has passed. Furthermore, we still don't know how to enter the Duanren Border. We need to stay in the capital for a while to understand the situation before heading to the Heart of Darkness. "Luo Xing suddenly suggested.
"Yes!
You're right. Let's find an inn in the capital and stay there for a while. We'll use this time to understand the distribution of the capital. "
Zhuowen nodded. Soon after, the three of them settled down in a place called Clear Heart Inn.
The three of them kept a very low profile. Other than cultivating in their rooms, they would go out to gather information about the Duanren Border.
Two months passed by, and Zhuowen and the other two finally managed to gather enough information about the Duanren Horizon.
It was said that the Duanren Horizon was a natural danger zone that was used to defend against the attacks of the endless Meta Beasts outside of the Duanren Horizon.
The Duanren Horizon had always been under the control of the capital's Emperor. It was said that the Duanren Horizon would open once every half a year for the warriors who wanted to venture outside of the Duanren Horizon.
Outside of the Duanren Horizon was the Heart of Darkness. Everyone knew that there were many rare treasures hidden in the Heart of Darkness. Even the outer area of the Heart of Darkness had many precious treasures.
There were some adventurous cultivators who knew they couldn't advance by relying on their own talent, so they would choose to venture into the Duanren Border and enter the Heart of Darkness. If they were able to obtain a rare treasure, then their cultivation would be able to rise again and enter a higher realm.
This was also the reason why the warriors who wanted to venture into the Duanren Horizon still came in an endless stream, bustling with activity even though the Duanren Horizon was extremely dangerous.
In another month's time, the half-year deadline would be up. The Duanren Horizon was about to open once again. At this moment, the capital became extremely lively. Countless warriors rushed into the Border Sea Country's capital in an uproar.
The originally vast and spacious Border Sea Country's capital had become a sea of people in these few days. It was extraordinarily lively. The entire capital was filled with countless warriors, and there was no lack of extremely terrifying experts among them.
Zhuo Wen's five senses were far sharper than an ordinary person's. He could sense that the number of Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators who had entered the capital during this period of time was probably in the triple digits. He knew that these Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivators were basically all participants.
It was impossible for a mere Border Sea Country to have so many Ultimate Emperor Realm warriors appear all of a sudden. Although Zhuowen had discovered these participants, he did not have the slightest intention of making a move.
The capital was too small. If he, Zhuowen, made a move, it would obviously alert the enemy. At that time, if the other participants joined forces and attacked together, even he, Zhuowen, would not be in a good situation.
The best time to make a move was undoubtedly when they entered the Heart of Darkness. That was when the real slaughter would begin.
On the first floor of Clear Heart Inn was the dining area. At this moment, there were many cultivators sitting around the tables and chairs. Most of them were drinking and chatting merrily while discussing the upcoming Duanren Border that had caused a great uproar recently.
"The opening of the Duanren Horizon this time is very different from the previous years. It is said that there are actually a few Ultimate Emperor Realm warriors entering the capital this time."
"A few?
Could it be that the Primogenitors of the other cities in the Border Sea Country are also planning to challenge the Duanren Horizon? "
"En!
There are a total of fifteen cities in the Border Sea Country. Among them, the Primogenitors of five cities have reached the limit of their lifespans. If they want to extend their lifespans, they will have to make a breakthrough in their martial way!
But to make a breakthrough in such a short period of time is basically impossible. So these five Primogenitors have placed their hopes on the Heart of Darkness. "
"Five cities ah!
There are so many this year. In the past, there were at most two Primogenitors. This year, there are actually five Primogenitors. It looks like there will be a good show to watch at the Duanren Horizon this time. "
There was a lot of discussion in the surroundings. Most of the topics revolved around the five Primogenitors who had arrived at the capital.
In the Border Sea Country, Ultimate Emperor Realm warriors were considered to be at the pinnacle of existence. Because there were just too few Ultimate Emperor Realm warriors, the total number of Ultimate Emperor Realm warriors in the entire capital would not exceed fifty.
Thump thump thump!
Suddenly, a series of footsteps came from outside the Qing Xin Inn. Then, a group of people quickly entered the inn.
The person in the lead was a woman. She wore a noble emerald green silk dress and held a soft black whip in her hand. She was beautiful with a trace of heroic spirit.
There were two pretty maidservants following behind the woman respectfully. The two maidservants were wearing a red dress and a blue dress respectively. Their faces also carried a trace of delicate arrogance.
As soon as the woman in the green dress entered the Qing Xin Inn, she noticed that the place was packed with people. Her beautiful eyebrows immediately furrowed. She did not expect the inn to be full today.
Looking around, the woman in the green dress immediately saw a rather remote location. There was a rather large table there. At this moment, there were only three people sitting at the table. There was still a lot of space.
The three people were a man and two women. The man had a delicate appearance and was not very old. The two women were extremely beautiful, even more beautiful than the woman in the green dress. The three of them were sitting and discussing something.
The woman in the green dress gave a meaningful glance to the maid in the red dress behind her. The maid in the red dress understood and nodded. Then, she walked towards the corner.
The three people sitting in the corner were Zhuowen, Luo Xing, and Qing Lian. The three of them were discussing the Duanren Border that would open in a month's time. They did not notice the woman in the green dress' little movements.
Ever since they left Green Fire City, Zhuowen had taken off his bronze mask. He had only worn the mask to blend into the Wu Family's group. Now, he naturally did not need it.
The maid in the red dress came in front of the three people's table. She took out a golden ingot from her bosom and threw it in front of the three people's table. She said rather arrogantly, "Our Young Miss has taken a fancy to your seat. I hope the three of you can give it to her."
Looking at the golden ingot that suddenly fell on the table, Zhuowen and the other two people stopped their discussion. Their eyes revealed a strange expression.
This place was not like the outside world where spirit stones were used as currency. Instead, they used ordinary gold and silver to replace the common currency.
"You want us to give up our seat?" Zhuowen glanced at the maid in the red dress in front of him and asked indifferently.
"Do you think one gold ingot is not enough?
As long as you give up your seat, our Young Miss will compensate you with three gold ingots. I think you should have profited!
Just giving up your seat and you've earned four gold ingots. "The maid in the red dress said arrogantly.
Within the inn, the surrounding people had also noticed the disturbance at Zhuo Wen's side. In particular, when they saw that the red dressed servant girl had actually casually taken out a gold ingot, everyone revealed a trace of astonishment.
The value of a gold ingot was not low. Casually taking out a gold ingot just to make someone give up their seat could no longer be described as extravagant. It was simply a waste!
Everyone knew that the green-dressed girl's status was not low. After all, not everyone could take out a gold ingot so casually.
"These three people are really lucky!
Just giving up their seat and they can earn four gold ingots. "
Many people's gazes focused on Zhuowen and the other two people. Deep within their eyes, there was a strong sense of envy. They could not wait for them to voluntarily give up their seat.
"It's not a question of whether it's enough or not. This is our seat. Why should we give it to you?
I want to ask you, who do you think you are?
You can ask us to give up our seat. "
Zhuowen shook his head. The words he said immediately made the surroundings quiet down. What everyone did not expect was that the young man in front of them would actually reject the maid in the red dress's condition so straightforwardly.
Not far away, the green-dressed girl frowned. She raised her foot and came to Zhuowen's table. She said coldly, "I'm a member of the Yue Family in the capital. I'm sure you've heard of it!
Give our Yue Family some face and give up your seat. I won't pursue your rude behavior just now. "
"It's actually the Yue Family!
This is the most powerful family in the capital. The king of the Sea Border Country is the patriarch of the Yue Family. I really didn't expect this girl to be a member of the Yue Family. "
The moment the green-dressed girl opened her mouth, the surrounding people were all stunned. The Yue Family's position in the capital was extremely respected. They were the family that inherited the king's position and were extremely powerful.
The green-dressed girl revealed a smile. The surrounding people's reaction made her extremely satisfied and comfortable.
"Scram!"
