The Dingxing Stone is one of the top 100 stones on the list of strange stones in the starry sky. It has no practical help to warriors. Its magical effect is reflected in the word "ding".
The object that can be connected to it is firmly fixed in the void and converges into a space. No matter how big the starry storm is, it cannot be blown away because it is already connected to the inner structure of that space.
It is the foundation for the existence of the Starry Sky Station. Without the Star Stone, the Starry Sky Station cannot exist. A station that is always drifting in the starry sky will not be of any help to adventurous warriors.
Fixed star stones are priced according to size. A high-grade Martial Saint can buy a palm-sized fixed star stone after more than ten years of accumulation. The larger the area, the more expensive the price.
The distance between that bright green spot and Xiao Chen slowly narrowed. When it reached a distance of five thousand meters, Xiao Chen on the bow could already clearly see the scene of this inn.
It is said to be a post station, but it is actually a mountaintop that was cut in half, then turned upside down, and various buildings were built on the neat platform.
The turquoise light is emitted from the inverted triangle-shaped land below, and the star stone is probably embedded in the core of it.
The area of this starry sky station is very small, with a radius of less than one thousand meters. With Xiao Chen's level, he can walk back and forth four or five times in one breath.
The buildings on the platform are very simple. Except for a shop, a few wooden houses and a courtyard, the rest of the place is planted with flowers, plants and trees.
On a stone table in the courtyard, two old men were leisurely drinking tea and playing chess. Not far away, a seven or eight-year-old girl was practicing her sword alone. The whole scene was harmonious.
Xiao Chen put away the Longmen battleship and stepped on two balls of lightning under his feet. In the blink of an eye, he came to the top of the platform and was blocked by an invisible restriction.
The two old men glanced at Xiao Chen lightly and didn't pay much attention. Instead, the girl practicing swordsman shouted in a slightly immature voice: "Daddy, daddy, there are guests here and business is coming."
Whoosh!
A jade token flew out from below, passed through the restriction and flew directly towards Xiao Chen. He stretched out his hand to grab it, and Xiao Chen held it in his palm, and then passed through the restriction unimpeded.
The girl was very curious when she saw Xiao Chen wearing a black cloak, and kept staring at Xiao Chen with her big eyes.
From the shop in the courtyard, a lazy voice came, saying: "Girl Pianzi, don't let your mind wander and continue practicing your sword."
The girl chuckled and made a face. She was obviously not afraid of the person who spoke inside, but she still practiced her sword honestly.
What the girl holds in her hand is not a real sword, but a blade carved from bamboo and wood. It looks decent when played, but in fact it is full of flaws.
Xiao Chen saw this scene and smiled slightly. In the deep starry sky, he could see such a leisurely scene, which made people feel calm for no reason.
Lifting his feet and stepping forward, Xiao Chen came to the store. There were some old "miscellaneous items" placed on the shelves. It was obvious that no one had touched them for a long time.
Behind the counter was a middle-aged man with a big beard. There was a shocking scar on the man's face, two thick eyebrows, and he could still vaguely see the angles and sharpness of the past.
The whole appearance of the person can be said to be fierce, but at this moment, holding a small teapot to his mouth in his right hand and holding a book in his hand, he looks very polite.
In Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness, the hazy wrinkles formed by 90% of the sword's intention suddenly trembled, as if he had seen something terrible.
The owner of the inn raised his head and let out a sigh, grinning and saying: "It's great that a young and peerless monster has come to this place, and he is also a good swordsman."
In his words, there was no look of surprise that ordinary people would have when seeing a genius. It was more of a ridicule and a joke, a kind of indifference that was accustomed to seeing all kinds of things in the world.
Xiao Chen was secretly worried. This man was not simple. Not only did he have unfathomable cultivation, he was also a very strong swordsman.
"Senior, are there star maps for sale here?" Xiao Chen said under the hood.
When talking about business, the owner of the inn put down the ancient book in his hand and cheered up, but he still had a sense of laziness and said, "Star map, what range do you want and what level of star map do you want? Different levels have different prices. "
Xiao Chen thought for a while and said, "Just have the most common one."
"That's the original level, one hundred thousand star coins, no two prices."
The owner of the inn threw a jade slip over, Xiao Chen reached out to catch it, and his spiritual consciousness entered it. Suddenly, a vast three-dimensional map of the starry sky appeared in his mind.
On the star map, major stations are marked. Stars with sects stationed there will also be specially marked with words. Dangerous places will be explained with colors and even simple words.
The unknown forbidden land was marked with a simple question mark, which was much more detailed than the star map Xiao Chen had seen before.
After a while, Xiao Chen found the place where Haotian Star was located. In his mind, he quickly sketched a route from here to Haotian Star.
Xiao Chen's consciousness exited, with a hint of joy on his face. He readily paid one hundred thousand star coins and prepared to leave.
The owner of the inn stopped him and said, "Young man, you still have something you haven't given me."
Xiao Chen was stunned for a while, and then remembered that the other party had thrown a jade token at the beginning. After thinking about it, he did not rush to hand it back and said: "I see that the inn station of the senior is not marked in this star map. , Senior took this jade token away, it will not be easy to find this place in the future. "
But the owner of the inn smiled and said: "It's a small place originally. I only do business for some friends. If it weren't for your young age and your skill as a swordsman, I wouldn't let you in."
Xiao Chen wanted to make friends with this person, wanted to keep the jade token in his hand, and thought about how to speak.
"Xiao Chen, most of these starry sky stations run by individuals were once famous figures in the sky world. They were tired of the fighting and killing in the warrior world, retired to the starry sky, and completely settled their grudges in the mortal world. Generally, they are not willing to be overstepped by others. disturb."
In the fairy ring, Aojiao spoke softly.
Xiao Chen couldn't help feeling sad when he heard this. It was a pity that he finally missed a real strong swordsman.
"I'm being rude, sorry to bother you."
Xiao Chen was relieved. After hearing Ao Jiao's explanation, he didn't say much and directly handed over the jade token.
The owner of the inn smiled slightly, took the jade token, and said: "That's quite tolerant. I know what you are thinking. If you can drift away from here next time, we will be truly destined, and we can have a good chat then." ”
Xiao Chen handed over his hands and left this place.
The middle-aged man looked at Xiao Chen's back and sighed softly: "I haven't been born in Kunlun for many years, but Kunlun has such a young leader."
Shaking his head, the host of the inn picked up the teapot, leaned on the recliner and continued reading.
With the guidance of the star map, Xiao Chen drove the Longmen battleship and galloped in the starry sky, and he suddenly felt much happier.
Half a month later, he successfully arrived at Haotian Star and arrived at Haotian Sect's star base. When the elders saw Xiao Chen's true form, they undoubtedly looked overjoyed.
Especially Shui Lingling, although she received a message from Xiao Chen and knew that he was safe, she was completely relieved after seeing the real person.
When the elders dispersed and only Shui Lingling and the eldest elder Han Qinghe were left, Xiao Chen revealed his purpose.
"What, you want to return to Cangqiong at this critical moment, did I hear you correctly?" Han Qinghe, who had always been calm, seemed extremely surprised when he heard this, which was a bit unacceptable.
Shui Lingling also had a puzzled look on her face and said: "Junior brother, why is this? Now is the beginning of the prosperous age. All the ancient and wonderful places will appear one after another, and adventures will continue. No genius of the younger generation will Why did you think of going back to Cangqiong if you missed this opportunity?"
Han Qinghe continued: "Moreover, the spiritual energy of the sky is thin. With your luck and talent, it would be a waste of time to go there. If you are left behind by other geniuses, it will be difficult to catch up."
Xiao Chen had already made a decision in his heart and said calmly: "I know everything you said, but the technique I am practicing now has reached a critical moment. I have unresolved concerns in the sky world, I can't reconcile my heart, and my heart is sad."
"Furthermore, I really want to meet some of my old friends in the Cangqiong Realm. This trip must be made, otherwise the regret in my heart will remain forever."
