Desolate Ancient City
The Ancient City of Desolation, as its name suggested, was barren inside. Not even a blade of grass grew. The surface of the huge yellow walls that were hundreds of feet tall had cracks on them. It looked like it had existed for a very long time.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Numerous figures flashed past from afar, heading towards the Desolate Ancient City. Although the Desolate Ancient City was in a dilapidated state, it was bustling with people. It was many times larger and more prosperous than Yan City.
Under the Flame Emperor's lead, Zhuowen and the rest also rushed towards the Desolate Ancient City. When they saw the huge crowd in the Ancient City and the terrifying aura that was emitted from time to time, Zhuowen and the rest were stunned.
They realized that the ancient city was filled with powerful auras of the four Supremacy Realm experts. There was even a majestic Emperor Qi among them. It was obvious that there were many Martial Emperors among them.
"When you enter the Desolate Ancient City, keep a low profile and don't cause trouble!
The Ancient Desolate City is the only port in the Sea of Bitterness that leads to the outer court of the Excellent Divine Academy. Furthermore, some of the powerful martial artists of the Eastern Lands, in order to go to the Ninth Netherworld Realm, also use the Boundless Sailboat in the Ancient Desolate City. Therefore, there are many powerful martial artists inside. "
"Your strength might be considered top-notch in the Yanxuan Empire, but in the Desolate Ancient City, you are nothing. Once you offend someone you shouldn't offend, it will be a disaster that will lead to your doom."
The Desolate Ancient City was a terrifying place. Even a great emperor like the Flame Emperor didn't dare act recklessly in there. He had to be very careful.
Mo Lingtian, Zhuowen, and the others all nodded. The Yan Emperor was right. There were indeed many experts in the Ancient Desolate City, and many of them had auras that they could not see through. Obviously, the cultivation of these warriors was much higher than theirs.
As they approached the ancient city, Zhuowen suddenly discovered that the surroundings of the ancient city were shrouded in countless fine blue threads. These blue threads interweaved together to form a magnificent and strange pattern.
"This is a restriction!
In the Desolate Ancient City, if there wasn't a powerful restriction to protect it, the Sea of Bitterness in front of it would create a tsunami and this huge ancient city wouldn't have survived until now. "
Perhaps because he saw the astonishment in the eyes of Zhuowen and the rest, the Flame Emperor explained patiently. Everyone nodded in understanding.
It seemed like the seals of the Desolate Ancient City weren't ordinary. From the Flame Emperor's words, Zhuo Wen knew how terrifying the Bitter Sea was. Ordinary Emperor Realm experts wouldn't dare to touch the Bitter Sea casually. One could imagine how terrifying it was.
After paying a certain amount of spirit stones, the Flame Emperor led Zhuo Wen and the others into the ancient city. The bustling scene of the ancient city was completely presented before everyone's eyes.
Regardless of the number or quality of warriors, the Desolate Ancient City was countless times better than Yan City. The core of the Desolate Ancient City was the huge tower that sat in the center of the ancient city.
The surface of the tower was engraved with densely packed strange runes. These runes seemed to contain a powerful force. At the top of the tower, there were wisps of blue light condensing. These blue light soared into the sky and spread in all directions, forming a blue restriction around the ancient city.
Obviously, the source of the restriction around the Desolate Ancient City was the Central Tower. There must be an Arcanist with an extremely high cultivation in the tower, maintaining the restriction on the tower.
"The tower is called the Boundless Tower. It is the port where the Boundless Sailboat departs from. If we want to cross the Sea of Bitterness, we must depart from the Boundless Tower. Let's go to the Boundless Tower and see if we can cross the Sea of Bitterness on the Boundless Sailboat today."
The Flame Emperor pointed at the Central Tower. He introduced it to Zhuowen and the others as he led them to the Boundless Tower.
The Flame Emperor and his group naturally attracted the attention of many warriors on the way, especially when they saw the five young juniors behind the Flame Emperor. They all understood that this group of people was preparing to head to the Outer Court of the Divine Academy.
After all, the Outer Court entrance examination of the Divine Academy was about to begin. Therefore, during this period of time, all the major forces of the Eastern Land brought their juniors to the Desolate Ancient City to cross the Sea of Bitterness on the Boundless Sailboat. Therefore, the surrounding warriors were not surprised.
The Flame Emperor did not pay attention to the surrounding discussions. With his Emperor Realm aura, no one dared to provoke his group. After all, offending an Emperor Realm expert for no reason was not worth the loss.
Soon, the Flame Emperor and his group arrived near the Boundless Tower. They saw that there were rows of small windows on the bottom floor of the Boundless Tower. Inside the small windows were warriors on the first floor of the tower. These warriors were probably receptionists because many warriors were near the windows and were discussing something with the warriors inside the windows.
The Flame Emperor led Zhuo Wen and the others to an empty window. A tall and slender woman with a voluptuous figure was sitting at the window. She stared at the Flame Emperor and the people behind him indifferently and said, "You want to reserve the Boundless Sailboat?"
"Yes!
I wonder if the Boundless Sailboat can depart today? "The Flame Emperor nodded and asked.
The woman shook her head and said indifferently, "We can't depart today. The earliest we can depart is tomorrow. Because tonight, the Sea of Bitterness will erupt with a huge tsunami that will last for the entire night. If you want to take the Boundless Sailboat, you can only book a ticket for tomorrow."
"Hmm?
The Sea of Bitterness is going to erupt with a tsunami tonight? "The Flame Emperor frowned slightly and said," Then book a ticket for tomorrow. "
The woman nodded and continued, "The Boundless Sailboat has a special class cabin, a first class cabin, a second class cabin, and a third class cabin. Which cabin do you want to choose?"
"What's the difference between the four cabins?" The Flame Emperor frowned slightly. It was his first time taking the Boundless Sailboat and he didn't know much about it.
The woman stared at the Flame Emperor in surprise. Although there was a trace of impatience in her eyes, she reluctantly explained since the Flame Emperor was an Emperor Realm expert, "Fourth-class cabins naturally have different treatment. The higher the class cabin, the bigger the room space, and the more comprehensive the services provided."
As she spoke, the woman pulled with her right hand and a light screen floated in front of the Flame Emperor and the others.
"The introduction of the four cabins and their respective prices are recorded here. Take a good look and let me know when you've made your choice." After the woman finished speaking, she ignored the Flame Emperor and the others.
The Flame Emperor and the people behind him all looked at the light screen. However, after looking at it for a while, their faces turned ugly because the price of the Boundless Sailboat's cabin was so high that it was somewhat beyond their expectations.
Take the third-class cabin as an example. The ticket price for one person was 655,555 Upper Spiritual Stones, the second-class cabin was 855,555 Upper Spiritual Stones, the first-class cabin was 055,555 Upper Spiritual Stones, and the special class cabin was 6,555,555 Upper Spiritual Stones.
With such a huge ticket price, even the Flame Emperor's face turned a little green. The force behind the Boundless Sailboat was too greedy. It was just a trip to the Sea of Bitterness, and they charged such a high price.
"Two first-class tickets, please!"
The Flame Emperor's eyes flickered. With a wave of his sleeve, he took out a sparkling emerald crystal.
The woman put away the green crystal, and her beautiful eyes revealed a trace of excitement. She nodded, took out two rather exquisite cards, and handed them to the Flame Emperor. Her tone also became much more polite. "These are two first-class tickets. My Lord, please keep them well."
After keeping the two tickets, the Flame Emperor pulled Mo Lingtian to the side and stared at the people behind him without saying a word. It was obvious that the Flame Emperor didn't intend to pay the fare for them.
"What is that?
One crystal is worth 6,555,555 Upper Spiritual Stones? "Zhuowen was a little surprised by the crystal that the Flame Emperor took out and muttered to himself.
"That is a Star Crystal. It is formed from the power of the stars and contains extremely pure power of the stars. This thing can only be refined by an Emperor Realm expert. However, His Majesty the Flame Emperor is only at the First Heaven Emperor Realm. He can't refine many Star Crystals, so he won't take it out easily."
"This thing is very valuable. One Star Crystal is worth 6,555,555 Upper Spiritual Stones, and it's the kind that has a price but no market."
Suddenly, Xuan Xing passed by Zhuowen and her clear voice rang in Zhuowen's mind. Looking at Xuan Xing's graceful back, Zhuowen knew that the owner of the voice should be Xuan Xing.
"Star Crystal?"
This was the first time Zhuowen heard of this thing. However, it seemed that this thing was quite beneficial to warriors.
"Boy!
The Star Crystal is a good thing. If you can obtain enough Star Crystals, you can refine the power of the stars and experience the power of the stars. This can greatly increase your chances of advancing to the Emperor Realm. "
Xiao Hei's voice rang in Zhuowen's mind again. However, there was a hint of hope in her voice.
After the Flame Emperor bought the tickets, the Thousand Star Palace's Xuan Xing and his elders, as well as the Five Elements Sect's Que Tu and Sect Master Bu Que also bought tickets. However, the Thousand Star Palace and the Five Elements Sect were not as rich as the Flame Emperor and only bought second-class tickets.
When it was Zui Qingfeng and Qing Xuzi's turn, Qing Xuzi's face was extremely ugly. This was because after their Qing Xu Valley was robbed by Zhuowen, they did not have many Spiritual Stones on them.
"Two third-class tickets, please." Qing Xu's face turned red as he said this.
The woman at the window looked at Qing Xuzi with some disdain. After taking Qing Xuzi's Spiritual Stones, she threw the two third-class tickets to Qing Xuzi.
Perhaps because he felt the woman's disdainful gaze, Qing Xuzi took the tickets and went to the Flame Emperor's side dejectedly. However, he was cursing Zhuowen in his heart. If it were not for Zhuowen, they would not have been reduced to the point where they could only buy third-class tickets.
When it was Zhuowen's turn, Zhuowen lazily handed a Qiankun Bag to the woman at the window and said, "Six third-class tickets."
"Six?"
The woman was stunned. Then, she saw Ziyang Tianzun and the other four standing behind Zhuowen. She nodded and took out six tickets and threw them to Zhuowen. Zhuowen casually accepted them and went to the Flame Emperor's side naturally.
