Chapter 226 The Real King City
One month passed in a hurry. At noon on that day, the team leader Dan Taixin suddenly stopped the convoy and said to everyone with a smile, "Many people have never come to the royal court, come and have a look."
When Dan Tai Xin shouted, the cultivators in the car, including Xue Peng, walked out of the car.
Xue Peng had been looking forward to the appearance of this royal city for a long time. After glanced at this, Xue Peng was stunned.
Then I saw the mountains ahead like tigers, squatting around the world, the long river like dragons, winding and lying, forming a natural dragon and tiger formation.
There is no need to open the eye of the sky. You can see with your naked eyes that the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth around you condenses into strands of green air flow and converges towards the center.
Between these mountains, there is a big city by the river. This big city is the tallest one he has ever seen along the way. The surface of the city wall is dark, and sometimes five-color runes flash through it.
A black-clad soldier patrolled back and forth on the battlements, and sometimes he turned his eyes to them. One of them even looked at him, and then looked away.
Xue Peng couldn't help but exclaim, "What a royal city, just an ordinary soldier, who has such cultivation."
Dan Tai Xin, who was standing beside him, laughed and said, "Little brother, you are wrong."
Xue Peng asked when he heard this, he looked at the cheerful man and said, "Brother Dan Tai, I wonder what I said wrong?"
Dan Tai Xin laughed again, pointed his finger at the giant city in the distance and said, "The big city in front of you is not a royal city."
Xue Peng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, looked at the big city, then looked at Dan Tai Xin again, and couldn't help but say, "Didn't Brother Dan Tai say that the royal city has arrived just now, why did he say that it is not the royal city at this time?"
The first person who came to the royal city on the side couldn't help but say, "Yes, look at how big the city is and how good the terrain is, the royal city should be like this."
Dan Tai Xin smiled and said, "Many cultivators who have just come to the royal city have mistakenly regarded this royal capital as a royal city. Do you see that huge tree?"
"Tree?" Xue Peng followed Dan Tai Xin's hand and saw no trees, but saw a mountain.
Dan Tai Xin pointed to the sky and said, "Look up."
Xue Peng raised his head and looked at him, his pupils suddenly shrank, and then he looked up and down several times before taking a deep breath. The mountain he saw just now was just the mainstay of towering ancient trees.
From this perspective, this towering ancient tree is hundreds of feet thick, penetrates into the sky, and its branches spread out more than tens of thousands of feet, hanging down from the sky.
At this time, Dan Tai Xin's mouth raised slightly and he smiled, "That royal city is on this Kunmu sacred tree."
"The royal city is on the tree?"
Xue Peng was shocked when he heard this and immediately opened his eyes to see the sky. The green light flowed in his eyes. Under the hot light at noon, a faint red flame was lit on this ancient tree as tall as a mountain. The branches of these red flames were beating among the leaves.
Xue Peng looked carefully and saw that in the flames, one temple after another was built on branches a hundred feet thick, densely packed with countless houses.
The entire royal city looked like a huge bird's nest castle burning on an ancient tree, like a dream, and Xue Peng couldn't believe that everything he saw was true.
Xue Peng gasped, "I didn't expect that, I really didn't expect that this royal city could be built on a tree, and how can it be built on a tree?"
The cultivator who was leading the team in the same team smiled and said, "What's wrong with us cultivators? For sacred trees, we cultivators are like ants that are more than ordinary big trees. Isn't it very common for ants to build a house on big trees?"
"Little brother, this big tree in front of me is my Dazhao's sacred tree Kunmu. How about it? It's spectacular. The circulation of all the formations in my royal city is completely supported by the spiritual energy gathered by this Kunmu."
"Not to mention the royal city, the spiritual energy in the royal community under the sacred tree alone is very abundant. Practicing in the royal city for one day is equivalent to practicing in the outside world for several days. This function alone is envious of the surrounding dynasties. Some people once used billions of spiritual stones to buy the only sacred tree seed in my royal court, but were rejected by the current king on the spot."
Xue Peng couldn't help but say, "Today I'm considered an eye-opener."
The cultivator who led the team laughed loudly and shouted loudly, "Let's go and enter the royal capital!"
Everyone got on the carriage and passed a large area of high-quality spiritual fields. After about an hour, the carriage drove outside the royal capital under the Kunmu tree.
Although the royal capital is not a royal city, its prosperity is no worse than the main city.
At the foot of Wangji City, four doors were opened, lined up from left to right. The door on the left was the largest, but also the most deserted, and no one left at all.
The second door to the left was much smaller, and a few people walked by.
The third doorway at the left was much smaller and there were more people coming and going.
Theirs are located in the fourth door of the left, which is the smallest and narrowest, but there are a lot of people. At this time, their team has already been lined up for two miles.
Xue Peng couldn't help but say, "Brother Dan Tai, there are no one in the three door holes next to him, why don't we go through those three door holes?"
The cultivator named Dan Tai said slowly when he heard this, "The three door holes were not for us. The one on the left, that is, the largest, was for the king's relatives; the second to the left was for the officials in the royal court, the third to the left was for those with the name of immortality, and the fourth to the ordinary people."
"Who made this rule? It's too unreasonable?" Xue Peng couldn't help asking.
The Dan Taixin looked around and then whispered, "Brother Xue, you can't say this anymore."
Xue Peng couldn't help but say, "What?"
Dan Tai Xin said, "This rule was set by the Great Prince thirty years ago. Anyone could walk with the four door holes, but once the Great Prince returned from hunting and felt that there were too many people returning to the city gate, so he distinguished the four door holes."
Xue Peng couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "No one has ever objected?"
"Haha, Brother Xue, you don't understand the situation in the royal court at first sight. Let me tell you, although the eldest prince is arrogant and domineering, he is also very capable. Every ten years of battle against demons, the eldest prince leads his army to fight, and they all return to victory. He assists the current king in governing the country, and is in order. The power in the royal court has long been deeply rooted. Everyone says that the future king is not the prince born by the queen, but is very likely to be inherited by the eldest prince born by this imperial concubine."
"But in my opinion, if the royal court is really under the control of this great prince, we might be in trouble."
