Chapter 4 The City of Freedom
After passing through the red grassland, there is an even wider plain. This is the famous killing plain in the Blood River Realm.
There are many killings on the killing plain, and there is smoke and blood everywhere.
Compared to the desolation of the Red Grassland, there are more people in the Killing Plains and the killings are more prosperous. From three directions, the major existences of human, demon and demon forces will flock here every year, like moths to the flame, offering their blood and lives to promote the legend of the Killing Plains.
In the center of the Killing Plains, there is a majestic and huge city, covering a vast area, and there are even mountains and rivers in the city. A large river runs through the center of the huge city, dividing it from north to south. In the northeast corner of the city, there is a large mountain, stretching out a vast mountainous area. At the top of the mountain, there is a tall tower standing on it.
This is the famous city of freedom on the Killing Plains.
The City of Freedom is a very unique existence in the Blood River Realm. It is said that the person who founded this city is also a powerful being at the Sendai level. It is said that this great master of Sendai is an alchemist who came from across the world. He was interested in finding some materials for alchemy in the Blood River Realm. Unexpectedly, he was involved in the Blood River War. In order to avoid the disturbance of war, the great master set aside a place on the killing plain and established a free city. He encouraged merchants from all walks of life to operate here, prohibited killing, and established a peaceful land on this killing plain.
As time went by, the Free City became a special place in the Blood River Realm.
Considering that the three parties each have their own needs, and everyone indeed needs a place to trade and exchange what they have, they gradually acquiesce to the existence of this place.
At that time, this place was called the City of Peace.
After obtaining the materials he wanted, the powerful man left here.
The peaceful city that lost control gradually turned bloody again.
The large amount of goods attracted countless killings and also caused countless disputes.
Just when the peaceful city was about to be abandoned, another powerful man appeared and saved the city on the verge of collapse. This was the famous Huo Tianzun.
It is said that Huo Tianzun is a being with an extremely violent temper who likes fighting. In order to satisfy his desire to fight, he took a fancy to this land that was once rich and full of killings, and built the Skyfire Arena here.
Since then, the City of Peace has completely changed.
This place is no longer a city built for mutual commerce, but has transformed into a city of outright killing.
In this city,
Killing becomes the norm and peace becomes a thing of the past.
People fight here, kill and be killed, and call it freedom.
Although the nature of the Free City has changed from doing business to fighting, its unique geographical location and the huge demand of the city itself still attract a large number of merchants. In order to ensure supply, the Killing City has also established a system to protect merchants. This has made the Free City the most prestigious killing place, while still attracting a large number of merchants from three parties, making it the largest transaction in the Blood River Realm. place.
Here you can find the best materials, the best alchemists, and weapon refiners. You can find everything you want, as long as you can afford the price.
After flying for three days, Tang Jie finally saw the shadow of the towering city in the distance.
It is like a huge thing lying on the ground, and the city wall alone is nearly a hundred feet high. Such a tall and solid city wall cannot be cast by manpower, but was created by the Supreme God of Fire. If you look carefully, you will find that every part of this huge city is shining with strange lights. To an outsider's eyes, these lights may only be the lights in the city, but in Tang Jie's eyes, he knows that they are clearly a person. An unprecedented super formation.
The great formation enveloped the entire Free City and put it under its own protection. Even the mighty Sendai might not be able to break it.
There are a total of 1,080 gates in the entire Free City, distributed in all directions. And above the city, there is an invisible defensive shield that prohibits anyone from flying over. Anyone who wants to enter the city, whether human, demon, or mortal cultivator, must enter through the city gate.
Tang Jie fell several hundred meters away from the Capital of Freedom.
As soon as he landed, he heard a loud noise: "Don't let him get away!"
Looking back, he saw a group of vampires running after a human.
The human race desperately ran towards the city gate, and just as he was about to reach the city gate, the leader of the vampire clan chasing behind him raised his hand and fired a blood arrow, pointing directly at the man's back.
Tang Jie frowned slightly and let out a low hum.
This humming word reached the ears of the person in front of him, and the person suddenly fell to the ground as if struck by thunder.
Bloody arrows flew past his back, and the man took advantage of the situation and rolled into the city gate.
As soon as the man entered the city gate, the vampires who were chasing behind him began to curse at the same time. But he seemed to be worried about something and didn't dare to pursue him.
The Free City has the rules of the Free City. Once anyone enters the city, they will be protected by the Free City. Anyone who dares to challenge the rules of the City of Freedom will surely die.
When that person entered the city, it was equivalent to being protected by the Free City, and those people did not dare to enter and pursue him. Angry in his heart, he turned his head and saw Tang Jie, with fierce gleams in their eyes.
It was the leader who stopped everyone and said, "Let him go."
Killing is originally a place of disorder. Surviving in such a place depends not only on strength, but also on vision.
The man in front of him fell from the sky. He was obviously a cultivator. Seeing them chasing and killing humans but showing no reaction showed that he was confident.
Don't mess with this kind of person.
Tang Jie ignored them and walked towards the city gate.
When we entered the city, we saw that it was very lively with people coming and going.
Here you can see vampires with blood-red skin, you can see humans, and you can also see demons with black energy lingering all over their bodies. Regardless of whether they were once humans, demons or something else, once possessed by demons, the long-lasting black smoke is their eternal characteristic. What's more, there will be all kinds of strange and weird existences, such as the headless demon with his head in his hand, the death prisoner who is often imprisoned in chains, the half-human, half-spider spider demon, etc. The world of demons , all kinds of weird things, everything is strange.
If there were so many weird and bizarre beings in other places and were not of my race, I'm afraid they would have been killed in rivers of blood long ago. But under the strong institutional constraints of the Free City, they were put together harmoniously, and they selected goods in the market with great spirit.
Due to the Great Thousand Worlds of Star Luo, countless worlds were once governed by the same authority. Therefore, in addition to having their own languages, each world is also fortunate to have a common language. As a world that has been completely inherited from the ancient world, Qixia World has perfect language preservation and uses the universal language. On the contrary, in the Blood River Realm, local and universal are mixed, each is good at its own sound, but no matter what, communication is still no problem.
Under such circumstances, the streets of the Free City seemed particularly lively. People are shouting here, bargaining in various languages, and all kinds of voices come and go. If you don't know, you may really think that you are in a lively market. Only when you go deep into it will you find that there is a lot of blood behind every product.
Tang Jie came here to find materials to replenish the teleportation array.
He walked inside and looked.
While walking, I suddenly heard a voice behind me: "Please wait!"
Looking back, he saw the man who was being chased running over and bowed to Tang Jie: "Thank you, sir, for saving my life!"
Tang Jie looked at the man and said, "That's all."
Turn around and leave.
When the man heard this, he couldn't close his mouth with joy. He was actually not sure that it was Tang Jie who saved him, but the snort was so coincidental and happened to save his life. He knew that someone might have intervened. At that time, apart from himself, only Tang Jie entered the city, so the man naturally and instinctively guessed that it was Tang Jie. He stepped forward to thank him. If he guessed wrong, it would be okay. If he guessed right, he could take the opportunity to get close to Tang Jie.
You must know that in this world, knowing how to make friends is also an important key to survival. Just as Tang Jie depended on Wei Tian to attend school, now this man is also devoted to Tang Jie.
At this moment, the man hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My name is Li Bofeng. I am saved by you. I am very grateful. If you don't dislike me, I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life!"
Tang Jie looked back at Li Bofeng: "Interesting."
He said it was interesting, and he naturally understood what Li Bofeng was thinking.
Being able to use this limited opportunity to curry favor with him in such a short period of time shows that Li Bofeng is also a flexible kid. It happened that Tang Jie was also new here. Although Han Feng had told him some things here, he was still unfamiliar with it and needed someone to help him. So he thought for a moment and said, "Do you know the City of Freedom?"
When Li Bofeng heard that he had a chance, he was overjoyed and said: "I have been hanging out in the City of Freedom for a long time, so there is nothing that I don't know about here."
"Then why are you being hunted?"
"Hey, isn't this just to make some money for working hard?" Li Bofeng said helplessly.
A large number of goods are traded in the Free City every day, and there are naturally many caravans coming and going. In the city, businessmen are protected and no killing is allowed, but outside the city, they are not so lenient. Some extremely vicious gangsters wandered around the killing field all day long, looking for opportunities to rob. Naturally, the caravan is not willing to be robbed and will also seek escort by bodyguards. The trade route leading to the Capital of Freedom was therefore filled with blood and murder.
Li Bofeng was just one of the unlucky ones. He accepted an escort mission, but was unfortunately attacked by the vampires. Everyone was scattered and each took some goods and ran away. Since everyone has a mustard bag, the caravan here is different from other places. There are usually two types of goods transported by car and mustard bag. The car transport is large and cheap goods, while the mustard bag contains valuable and relatively cheap goods. Less.
In the event of a strong attack, everyone would split up and flee to the city. This was a common occurrence for every bodyguard. It was precisely because of this that Li Bofeng was pursued by those vampires. If he wanted to survive, it was actually simple, just close the mustard bag. However, this man did his duty and ran all the way into the city.
After entering the city, he would complete the task and only need to hand over the goods to the designated merchant.
Tang Jie looked at Li Bofeng. He was an enlightened spiritual master, and he was pretty good in terms of realm. After thinking for a while, he said: "Then how much benefit can you get from taking this trip?"
Li Bofeng replied: "It takes eight days to go back and forth. If nothing happens, you can get 400 black stone coins. Now that something happens, you will only get half. Alas."
"Black stone coins?" Tang Jie was stunned: "There is no need to trade spiritual jade here? What are black stone coins?"
Li Bofeng replied: "Spiritual jade is mainly found in human areas, but it is not accepted here. All transactions in this free city are only allowed in black stone coins, and can only be used here."
Tang Jie frowned when he heard this, but he didn't have this black stone coin.
Li Bofeng had already seen Tang Jie's embarrassment and said with a smile: "Is this your first time here, sir? I happen to have a delivery here. After I get the money, I can pay you some to repay your life-saving grace."
"No need, you just need to tell me how to earn black stone coins."
"My lord, if you have any questions, tell me everything you know. By the way, I haven't asked your lord for your name or taboo yet."
"Tang Jie."
Li Bofeng just started talking.
There are three main ways to stay in this city of freedom. The first is doing business. The Free City is the largest trading place in the Blood River Realm, and all kinds of goods under the three powers will be sent here. Due to the bumpy trade routes and unpredictable risks, the profits from goods are often extremely high. After a product is transported here from the human area, it can often be sold for ten or twenty times the price. The second is to work for people. Li Bofeng is like this. He earns money by doing part-time work for others. The use value of black stone coins is slightly higher than that of spiritual coins. If it is purely based on practical value, one black stone coin can be exchanged for five spiritual coins. Of course, it will be different when placed on different goods. The third is the Skyfire Arena.
In fact, this is the most eye-catching place.
Every year, a large number of heroes come to this Skyfire Arena to compete and fight. And those big shots who have money but no place to spend it will come here to watch the killing show.
The arena itself is a huge gold-selling cave, where a large number of tickets are sold for each gladiatorial battle and priced according to its popularity. Because of this, anyone who competes in the arena can get money regardless of victory or defeat. It's just that the loser gets less and the winner gets more. Of course, in addition to this, the loser also needs to bear the risk of death.
As viewers, people enjoy bloody battles.
Because of this, whoever kills the hardest is the most popular.
"Can anyone go?" Tang Jie had heard about the Skyfire Arena in advance, but because the old man was vague, his understanding was limited, and he was even more interested at this moment.
"Yes, anyone can sign up." Li Bofeng replied: "However, most of the people who first participated in the gladiatorial battle were in melee battles, and their income was only ten black stone coins. Only those who survived the melee and proved their strength are eligible to receive Individual battles. For each individual battle, the audience will vote for it. When the support reaches a certain level, there will be a special arena. Only those who enter the special arena are eligible to receive generous rewards. Some of them Even the Zi Mansion is excited about the reward."
"Don't you care about the realm?"
"The Skyfire Arena only looks at strength, not realm. On the contrary, the gap in realm is more likely to bring excitement, enjoyment, and uncertainty. As long as there is enough confidence, anyone can challenge someone with a higher realm than themselves. Of course, lower realms Those with higher realms or lower rankings have the right to reject challenges from those with higher realms or higher rankings.”
"How high is the current highest level in the Fire Arena?"
"Soul transformation. As for the masters in the Zifu period, they generally won't participate in gladiatorial combat."
Tang Jie nodded. An existence like Zifu did not need to rely on fighting to make money. People would laugh out loud if they found out.
"That's it." Tang Jie nodded: "It sounds interesting."
"Sir, you don't want to fight in the arena, do you? Be careful. It is the bloody place of the Free City. I don't know how many heroes died there. No one can guarantee that he will always win, and even if he fails just once, he will be defeated. It may be beyond redemption!”
"I know, but it still attracted a lot of people, right?"
Li Bofeng sighed: "The reward is really too tempting."
Competitors in the Skyfire Arena have their own strength rankings. As long as they are ranked in the rankings, each one has a high net worth, and every time they appear, they will earn high profits.
These profits converted into resources are enough to make anyone jealous.
And if you want to go far enough and faster on the immortal road, you can't do it without these benefits.
Tang Jie's ability to become a real person in just over twenty years is inseparable from the resources he has devoted himself to obtaining over the years.
From the initial use of the Wei family to the subsequent conspiracy to seize the Tianshen Palace, from Xinghua Tower, Wuhui Valley, Laoya Ridge, Langya Paradise, Shimen Sect, Shuiyue Cave, all the way to Mo Qiu's crazy robbery/robbery, it was... It was by seizing the opportunity again and again and plundering like crazy that Tang Jie was as strong as he is today.
But even so, he still only traveled a very limited distance on this immortal road.
In the days to come, there will be a longer and more distant road waiting for him to climb, face, and conquer.
In this case, Skyfire Arena is a good choice.
In this arena where all the outstanding disciples in the world gather, there are countless battles and killings, as well as countless flowers and applause, as well as countless rewards and resources.
Under such circumstances, even Tang Jie would inevitably become interested.
Of course, he won't make a decision immediately now. He will observe it first and analyze the dangers and resources before making his own decision. As for before that, I can only rely on Li Bofeng to support him.
