The boss is going against the sky

Chapter 560
"It seems that the natural disaster on Qiling Star may be more serious than I expected."

Huangpao Shen Qi muttered something, then flew straight down.

Passing through the wind layer, and passing through the clouds at high altitude, part of the mountains and rivers of Qiling Star finally appeared in front of Shen Qi's eyes.

However, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, his sword eyebrows furrowed even deeper.

I saw that there are huge waves on the ocean at the point of sight, and the place where the land is close to the ocean is at least hundreds of miles of rocky beaches and deserts.And in the depths of the land, there are countless streams of thick smoke rising into the sky, turning into patches of black gray or yellowish-brown smoke clouds in the sky.

Even high in the sky, there is also the smell of sulfur.

Obviously, there are not only many volcanoes on Qilingxing, but they are also quite active.

At this moment, Huangpao Shen Qi had a bad idea in his heart—such a bad environment has probably lasted at least thousands of years on Qiling Star. So, is there still anyone living in Qiling Star today?
If there is no one, or there are so few creatures that the system does not recognize it as a living planet, their trip will be in vain.

Worried in his heart, Shen Qi immediately accelerated and flew towards the depths of the continent in front of him.

In the world of martial arts, there are many strange beasts in poor mountains and bad waters, and this is obviously the case on Qiling Star.

As they went deeper into this continent, Shen Qi didn't see any of them, but he saw several of them, and one of them was even in the realm of supernatural powers.

For humans, these powerful alien beasts are obviously also a disaster.Thus, Shen Qi couldn't help but feel more worried.

After crossing hundreds of miles of coastal desert and thousands of miles of mountains, Shen Qi finally saw a large plain at a place nearly ten thousand miles away from the edge of this continent.

The environment of this plain is also harsh, most of which are next-door terrain, and the rest of the woods, grasslands, and hills seem to be covered with a layer of gray.From time to time, you can see a series of ground fissures that are more than ten feet or even hundreds of feet wide, attached to the plain land like knife wounds, which are hideous and terrifying.

Shen Qi's heart almost went cold.

Until he saw a huge city lying on the plain!

Of course, the word "giant" is only compared to the ordinary cities that Shen Qi has seen, and it is nothing compared to Tongtian City.

As Shen Qi approached, his divine sense enveloped him, and he knew that the length and width of this city were only 36 miles.

The four tall city gates are all tightly closed, and two big blood-red characters are engraved on the huge gray stones on them—Xiaocheng!
On the city wall, there are teams of warriors in leather armor guarding or patrolling, each with a strong murderous aura and extraordinary momentum.

"This Xiao Cheng looks interesting."

After finally discovering the human city, Shen Qi's mood suddenly improved, he smiled, and then performed the Promise Step in the air thousands of meters high, teleporting directly into the city.

At the same time, in the tall and conspicuous black stone castle in the center of Xiaocheng, a gray-haired old man woke up from the state of sitting cross-legged and practicing. He vigilantly extended his spiritual sense to search around, and he couldn't help showing doubts.

"Strange, is it possible that the old man has this illusion because he has been unable to improve his realm for a long time and has a demonic obstacle?"

Frowning with worry, the old man thought for a while before deciding to end his training.

When he came out of the secret room of retreat, the two teams of warriors guarding outside were stunned, and then they bowed their hands together: "City Lord!"

Then one of the captains asked, "What orders does the city lord have?"

"Did anything important happen in the city during my retreat?" the old man asked back.

"Here," the captain hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I heard that the Yang family and the Li family fought for a glimpse of the spiritual spring outside the city, and there was a private fight outside the city. It seems that each of them was killed or injured."

Hearing this, the old man immediately revealed a malevolent look, and said: "We fight for those things every year, can't we discuss and distribute them properly? Is it not my Xiaocheng's strength that will be damaged in the end? "

As soon as the old man got angry, the warriors of the two teams suddenly felt cold all over, and couldn't help but hold their breath.

But in their hearts, there are many people who slander: Old city lord, you are doing things unfairly, how can the Yang and Li families sit down and have a good talk?

Spiritual thoughts couldn't detect people's hearts, so the old man didn't know what the guards were thinking. He snorted again, and then turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared in the corridor.

After the old man left for a while, the captain and the deputy captain exchanged glances, and each let a warrior leave, not knowing what to do.

···
"It seems that the people here have adapted to the harsh environment of Qilingxing, and even developed some unique culture."

Walking on the streets of Xiaocheng, looking at the buildings on the left and right and the pedestrians on the street, Shen Qi couldn't help thinking.

Because the place where Xiaocheng was located was only a few thousand miles away from the mountainous area with many volcanoes that Shen Qi had passed through before, the sky was a bit gray, and there was also a little dust floating in the air.

Therefore, pedestrians on the street basically wear a veil, or even a kind of goggles like windproof glasses made of crystal.In addition, there are many cloaks with hoods that wrap the whole body tightly.

If it wasn't for Shen Qi's proficiency in the mystic art of the soul, the mana of the primordial spirit would naturally have an impact on the people around him, causing people to ignore his existence. I'm afraid many people would stare at him as soon as he appeared with his unusual attire.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that people on the street are all dressed in that way. If they don’t have veils and blindfolds, their clothes must be very shabby, or even worn out, and they can barely cover their mouths and noses with a piece of rag.

In addition, the buildings in the city are basically low fortress-style houses, and the strongest places are often the foundation, the roots of the walls, and the roof.

The foundations and walls are solid probably because they are often threatened by earthquakes, as evidenced by the cracks in the ground outside the city.

As for the roof being so strong, it may be to defend against swarms of raptors entering the city.Or, there will be hail that can kill people and damage houses here?

It is difficult to get much important information just by observation.

Therefore, after wandering around the city for a while, Shen Qi took aim at a "questioning" target.

This man looks like a young man, capable, shrewd, and sturdy. He is riding a congenital beast named Huo Wenhu in the city, followed by two teams of sturdy congenital warriors.

Such an imposing manner, such a row of faces, is quite extraordinary in the city.As for the cultivation base, when Shen Qi investigated the whole process with his divine sense before, he confirmed that there was only one old man in the supernatural power realm in Xiaocheng, and this person was at the third level of the virtual realm, which was quite high.

Therefore, the person he was looking at must have a prominent position in the city.

Shen Qi followed the other party into a big castle called Yang Family Fort, and when he was dismissed, he entered the study alone, and Shen Qi appeared in the study.

"Who are you?!"

Discovering Shen Qi who suddenly appeared, Yang Gu first rushed out of his body with true energy in human form, but did not directly attack Shen Qi, but stood in front of him like a shield, and sternly shouted at Shen Qi.

Shen Qi secretly praised Yang Gu's reaction, but he didn't speak to Yang Gu. Instead, with a flick of his finger, a fingernail-sized but extremely delicate purple lotus flew towards Yang Gu's forehead.

From Yang Gu's point of view, Shen Qi didn't even move, and a ray of purple light shot at him. He just shrank his pupils reflexively. He didn't have time for other reactions, so he just watched the purple light pass through without hindrance. The true energy of the human form sinks into the forehead.

Then, a purple lotus flower appeared in each of Yang Gu's pupils.

While breathing, the purple lotus disappeared, and Yang Gu bowed down to Shen Qi: "Yang Gu sees the master!"

Shen Qi raised his hand and said lightly: "You don't need to be too polite, I just want to ask you a few words."

"Master, just ask, Yang Gu will know everything and say everything!"
