I am the only devil in the whole world of cultivation

Chapter 45 Suppression and Protection

The time on the flying boat passed quickly, and Xie Zhengliu felt that he had only practiced for a short time. When he opened his eyes again, the flying boat had stopped steadily at the gate of Crying Ghost City.

The Weeping Ghost City is just like its name. Although it is a large city that accommodates nearly 1 people, when you look at it from the outside, you can only see its towering city walls that look like iron barrels.

Outside Crying Ghost City is a lonely wasteland, with only one road leading to all directions, bringing news from the outside world to this town that seems to be isolated in the wilderness.

The group of people left the flying boat under the leadership of Fengyang. After Fengyang waved his hand to put away the flying boat, he led everyone to the tall city gate.

The thick city walls cut off the sounds inside and outside, making the city in front of them as quiet as death.

One of the senior brothers who was arranged here said strangely: "Senior brother Fengyang, haven't we already mentioned to the senior brothers in the city that we are coming? Why don't we see them coming out to greet us now, let alone anyone opening the city gate?"

"Don't worry, the gate of this Crying Ghost City is not that easy to open. You must remember what I will do next, and I will ask you to continue coming here to deliver supplies in the future."

After Fengyang finished explaining to everyone, he stepped forward and knocked on the door in three long strokes and two short strokes.The heavy door made a dull sound, and after a while, a strange blue vortex slowly appeared on the door made of black iron.

Xie Zhengliu and others were surprised. Zhuang Youqian wanted to ask, but was startled by the voice coming from the vortex: "Token!"

Fengyang skillfully took out a sapphire token from his storage bag and threw it directly into the vortex.

The vortex quickly swallowed the token, and the person on the other side quickly checked it, and the vortex immediately spit out the word "passed."

As this sentence passed, the token was spat out again.

After Fengyang took the token, he pulled everyone back a few steps.

As soon as they stood up again, they saw the door in front of them slowly opening a gap for only three people to walk side by side.

Someone saw this and asked strangely: "Why is the control in this Crying Ghost City stricter than our Hengtian Sect?"

"It's not stricter than the Hengtian Sect. After all, what is being suppressed under this city is one of the passages from the Demon Realm to the Cultivation Realm!"

In Feng Yang's explanation, everyone quickly passed through the gap in the door and crossed the barrier set in front of the door.

The moment they crossed the barrier and completely entered the Weeping Ghost City, countless noises and cries reached their ears.The smoke of human fireworks that hit their faces instantly pulled everyone into the world of ordinary people.

Different from the desolation and loneliness outside the city, the world inside the city is no different from an ordinary city. There are tall buildings on both sides of the long street, and countless stalls extend from the city gate to the central square of the city.

And in the center of the square that leads to the four city districts, the statue of the first city lord is looking down at the people in the city with a kind face.

Xie Zhengliu's eyes unconsciously stayed on the statue for a while. She always felt that there was something eerie and strange about the statue being carved like this.Before Xie Zhengliu could look any further, the disciples of the Hengtian Sect who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time took the initiative to greet them.

"Fengyang, you guys arrived just in time. I thought I would have to wait at least a little longer." A female cultivator in a blue dress led a male cultivator forward quickly. She held a sword in her right hand and looked strong and strong. There is no lack of softness, with a clear aura that belongs to the disciples of Hengtian Sect.

Feng Yang also hurriedly exchanged hands with each other and said: "Senior Sister Mingxin, Senior Brother Minghe. We are here to deliver supplies to senior brothers and sisters, how dare we delay?"

"You're still so good at talking." The male cultivator named Ming He was very tall, and his muscles were clearly visible under his thin clothes.

Standing in front of him, even Feng Yang looked a little petite.

The three of them exchanged a few words and quickly focused on the disciples like Xie Zhengliu.

Ming Xin saw Xie Zhengliu at a glance, and there was a hint of intimacy in her eyes: "Are these the new disciples that the sect master asked you to bring? I have long heard that our Hengtian Sect has a few more talented people. My fellow disciples, today I saw that the rumors were indeed true."

Minghe even slapped Yue Mingchou and Qin Siyuan on the shoulders, looking very satisfied with them: "Yes, this body is much stronger than that of senior brother."

Yue Mingqiu and Qin Siyuan, who had been warmly "cared for" by their senior brothers, almost failed to stand still.

"Okay, let's not stand here anymore. Senior sister will take you to the sect's headquarters to have a look." Mingxin took the initiative to stand next to Xie Zhengliu, making no secret of her favor for her.

As early as the establishment of Crying Ghost City, several major sects set up their respective sect garrison here.Among them, Hengtian Sect, which was the first to guard the wasteland, occupies the largest area and has the best location.

Ming Xin, who led them here, quickly arranged a place for Xie Zhengliu and others to stay. According to the description on the mission card, they need to stay in Crying Ghost City for ten days until this group of people is completely familiar with the things in Crying Ghost City. Only after checking the operating conditions can we leave together with the brothers and sisters who have completed the garrison mission.

Ming Xin, who led them, was a very talkative person, and his attitude towards Xie Zhengliu was particularly good.This also allowed Yue Mingqiu, Zhuang Youqian and others who followed Xie Zhengliu to also gain something.

For example, now, without Xie Zhengliu asking, Mingxin took the initiative to tell all the information she knew: "You should know that the original purpose of Crying Ghost City was to suppress a crack in the underground Demon Realm. But because of the crack slowly over the years, It is getting bigger, so demons will continue to escape from there and disturb the world. Our Hengtian Sect arranges for new disciples to come and garrison every year, just to ensure that the demons will not escape here."

"The person in charge of us now is Senior Brother Yuan Hao. He is the eldest disciple of the third elder. He is upright and reliable, and his swordsmanship is outstanding. However, Senior Brother Yuan Hao has been stationed here for more than 15 years, and it is time to go back and rest."

It is precisely for this reason that the sect leader arranged for Feng Yang to take over Yuan Hao's important task.After Fengyang completes ten years of experience here, he will be able to succeed as the sect leader more easily in the future.

These words were not told directly to the three of them, but Xie Zhengliu and the others had already guessed the hidden meaning.

"Oh, by the way." Mingxin suddenly looked at Xie Zhengliu, "I heard that junior sister learned swordsmanship? What a coincidence, the first city lord of the Crying Ghost City was also a swordsman. In the next ten days, if there is Sora, maybe you can go to the Sword Soul Pavilion under his statue to learn more."

Xie Zhengliu also became interested after hearing this. A man whose statues were filled with compassion could actually be a swordsman who is famous for his fierceness?
This city is getting more and more interesting.
