Indescribable.
Multiply the perceived senses by three…
Ning Tao felt that his life had reached its peak and climax.
He seemed to have opened a door to a new world, and he was destined to achieve righteousness in that door.
But there is also a shortcoming, that is, the sense of perception is multiplied by three, and his former glory is no longer there.
So much so that Tang Zixian asked him afterwards if something went wrong.
Ning Tao was speechless.
Using an urgent military situation as an excuse, Ning Tao returned to the temple an hour later.
There are three Ning Taos in the temple, one in person, one wearing a red dress, and one wearing a white dress.
Ning Tao kneaded the magic formula and recited the magic spell.
The void trembled slightly, the two clones disappeared, the energy went back and forth from where it came, and the feeling of chaos also disappeared.
Ning Tao let out a long breath, and the disaster tonight was finally over. The experience of multiplying his senses by three left him with endless aftertaste, and he has yet to come out of it until now.
Chong Er said: "Ning Aiqing, I have made preparations. Do you want to move now?"
Ning Tao cleared away the messy feelings and images in his mind, and then said: "Go to the Immortal Burial City to have a look."
A cloud of ink smoke poured out from the Sansheng Cauldron.
Ning Tao couldn't see or feel anything in the ink smoke. This was not done intentionally by Zhong Er, but because the temple's magic circle was activated. He didn't know before, but now this is his own temple. Of course he knows this, so he no longer has the original curiosity.
While waiting, he couldn't help but have some random images appear in his mind, quietly recalling them.
If the clam girl knew that her god-given clone technique was used by her husband in this way, I wonder how she would feel
The ink smoke returned to the Sansheng Cauldron, everything returned to normal, and the move was over.
Chong Er said: "Ning Aiqing, we have arrived at the Immortal Burial City."
"I'll go out and take a look first." Ning Tao walked towards the door.
When I opened the door, the sky was dark, and I could see a dense mountain forest. There was a stone forest in the canyon at the foot of the hillside. Huge natural stone pillars were placed in the canyon like bamboo shoots. There were lights on in some of the stone pillars. After looking carefully, I realized that people had hollowed out those natural stone pillars and turned them into residences.
If you don't light up the lamp during the day, you can only see densely packed large and small stone pillars from the sky, making it difficult to spot anyone.
This is the Immortal Burial City, which is a natural and good place to avoid immortal hunters.
Ning Tao took a few steps forward and looked back, only to realize that the small ruined temple was attached to a hunter's cabin built in the mountain forest. It had stone walls, a roof covered with wild grass and bark, and the roof was covered with moss. and weeds, and it’s unknown how long it has been abandoned.
This is also a routine operation.
Whether it is the former Tianwai Clinic or the current small dilapidated temple, the places that are moved are those that no one lives in, and most of these places are very dilapidated.
After observing the environment, Ning Tao casually left a blood lock on a rock next to the small ruined temple, and then walked towards the Immortal Burial City down the mountain.
The gate of Immortal Burial City is at the entrance of the valley. A city wall dozens of meters high was built with huge rocks, and a city gate was also built.
Not far from the city gate is the territory of heavenly beings.
When going down the mountain, Ning Tao looked to the west, but did not see the camp where the army was stationed.
As he walked, he thought in his mind: "Falconjing Baishun is a professional in intelligence, and he is highly regarded by Li Tianhao. It is impossible for him to get such important information wrong. Could it be that Tianren's army has withdrawn again? It's just a military exercise. , to scare the new dynasty I just established?"
What the specific situation is is unknown.
After entering Immortal Burial City, Ning Tao wandered aimlessly on the streets.
The streets were deserted and no one was seen walking around.
After all, this is a small place, not Jizang City. The population is far smaller than that of Jizang City. In addition, activities can be done here during the day, so it is normal that no one comes out to walk around at night.
Ning Tao walked around the streets and then walked to the city lord's mansion.
The lord of Immortal Burial City is named Lin Shishan. He is an immortal. He used to be loyal to the Ksitigarbha Sect, but now the Ksitigarbha Sect no longer exists. He has also become a "prince" of the Late Dynasty guarding the southwest border.
These were all things that I knew before coming here. Ning Tao didn't know what kind of person Lin Shishan was. He had never seen him before.
Passing through a stone-paved street, Ning Tao saw the City Lord's Palace. It was composed of several huge natural stone pillars. The internal structure was not yet known. In terms of appearance, it looked very much like a medieval castle on earth.
There were several immortal warriors standing at the gate of the city.
Ning Tao stopped and directly revealed his identity and walked over, or did he sneak in secretly
After thinking about it, he chose the latter.
If he reveals his identity and goes in directly, what he sees and hears may not be true. Although he doesn't want to be an Immortal King, and he has never taken his identity as Sun Immortal King seriously, is this city lord good or bad, and are the lives of the immortal people here good or miserable? He cares more about these.
Ning Tao bypassed the gate and came to the back of the City Lord's Mansion. He glanced at a window on the stone pillar and jumped onto the window sill.
The window was closed, but for a being like him, there was no obstacle at all. With a touch of spiritual power, the closed window opened.
Ning Tao climbed through the window and entered the city lord's mansion.
Behind the window was a bedroom, with a fat man sleeping on a big bed and a woman. The fat man looked a bit older, but the woman was very young, looking no more than ten years old. There were some scars on her body, but she didn't know what caused them.
There was one more person in the room. Neither the fat man nor the girl noticed it. They were both fast asleep.
Ning Tao frowned slightly and left the room quietly.
Neither the fat man nor the girl in the room were immortals. From this alone, it was not difficult to tell that he was not the lord of the Immortal Burial City.
Outside the door is a corridor, and at the end of the corridor is a staircase going down. Both the corridors and the stairs are all artificially carved.
Ning Tao reached out and touched the stone wall of the corridor and found that the stone pillar was not a particularly hard rock. The texture was a bit like the building stone on the earth, which is easy to carve. But it is definitely different. This stone actually contains a little bit of spiritual energy, so much so that it creates a sense of spiritual energy for the city lord's mansion.
Ning Tao walked through the corridor and walked down the stone stairs.
The ground floor is a hall.
Ning Tao blocked all the breath on his body, and there was no sound from his feet. Before he even got close to the hall, the sound of voices reached his ears.
Ning Tao stopped and listened carefully.
"City Lord, the Celestial Legion has retreated."
"How far did they retreat?" one asked.
This should be the voice of City Lord Lin Shishan, and Ning Tao remembered this voice.
"Retreated fifty miles." someone said.
"Doesn't that mean we didn't withdraw?" Lin Shishan's voice said, "Who leads the legion outside the city?"
"According to our information, the skeleton group coming this time is the Celestial Being, and the immortal leader is Arisias."
Lin Shishan's voice: "The natural skeleton group is the master of kings. Why did they come to a small place like ours? Did he accept the money we sent?"
"The person who gave the gift just came back. Our people said that Arisias had accepted our gift, but..."
Lin Shishan's voice: "But what?"
"Our people brought back the words of Arisias, who said that this time it was not a problem that money could solve."
"Then what does he want to do?"
"He wants you, the city lord..."
"Say, don't hesitate."
"He wants you, city lord, to open the city and surrender."
"Damn it, I told you earlier, it made me so nervous." Lin Shishan's voice sounded.
"City Lord, do you mean that Kaicheng surrenders?"
"If you don't surrender the city, do you still want to start a war with the Skeleton Regiment?" Lin Shishan's voice said.
"This... subordinates don't dare."
"What kind of bullshit Buri Dynasty? In the past, when we followed Ksitigarbha Sect, we could collect taxes as much as we wanted, and do whatever we wanted. Ever since that damn Buri Master became the Immortal King, he actually stopped collecting taxes. We have to restrain our people and not do evil. What’s the point of this life? I never admit that there is no immortal king. I am the king in this place!”
"Yes, the brothers have a lot of resentment. In the past, they collected taxes at will and played with women at will. Now they are not allowed to do anything. Who has the heart to defend the city?"
"Zhang Cheng, send another confidant over and say that I am willing to open the city and surrender, but I will still be the lord of Immortal Burial City. Let's see what Arisias says. If he accepts this condition, I will interview him and sign a contract. ." Lin Shishan's voice.
"Yes, I will send someone to handle it right now." Zhang Cheng's voice sounded.
Ning Tao walked down quickly and entered the underground level.
As soon as he went down, footsteps came from the stairs. They were Lin Shishan's footsteps walking up.
Although Lin Shishan can be regarded as an immortal, his Taoism is nothing in Ning Tao's eyes. What's more, Lin Shishan is the local overlord of Ksitigarbha who is far away from the emperor. He is used to living a pampered life, and his strength is not as good as that of ordinary immortals. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to sneak into the city lord's mansion so easily and have not been discovered until now.
Ning Tao walked down the stone staircase, preparing to find a suitable place to draw a blood lock, so that it would be easier to go back and come back next time.
At the end of the stone staircase is an underground prison.
On both sides of a narrow corridor are individual cells.
Ning Tao walked along the corridor in the prison, looking at the cells one after another, and couldn't help but feel angry.
The cells held in those cells were all young girls, all of them dressed in rags, and some even had no clothes to hide their ugly looks. Many girls had injuries on their bodies, and most of them were asleep. Even those who were not asleep looked at him with empty eyes and numb expressions.
Ning Tao secretly said in his heart: "Damn it, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears, I wouldn't have known that there were such villains under my hands! Lin Shishan, Lin Shishan, if I let you live, it would be my sin. ”
"Water... give me some water..." A voice came from a cell.
