Chapter 239: Chaotianque! Strategy for the Action to Capture Hong Fu Zhenren
……

Chatting all the way.

The fifth-level spiritual bird chariot continued to fly towards the imperial city.

It was more than two hours later that the flying chariot officially entered the Tianyuan Imperial City.

And in the meantime.

The flying chariot master kept chattering, talking about everything from the historical changes of the Tianyuan Dynasty to the gossip in the streets, as if he knew everything.

Then, he pointed at the towering, endless, thick city wall and said proudly, "You see, we will officially enter the imperial city after passing through the west gate of the Tianyuan city wall."

"We have set up a no-fly magic array above our city wall. If cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage want to cross the city wall, they will be suppressed by the magic array and fall. Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator forcibly flies through the air, he will be shot into a sieve by the dragon-shooting crossbows scattered on the arrow towers on the city wall."

"However, the city wall is only the first line of defense after all. Our huge imperial city is completely shrouded in the [Immortal Essence Nine Heavens Formation]. Once the formation is fully activated, even a top-level incarnation will end up in failure if he tries to break in!"

"By the way, did you see those faint light bands? Do you know what they are used for?"

Master Feiyan changed the subject and pointed to the colorful light bands floating in the air, crisscrossing like silk brocade.

Before Chen Jingyun came, he also heard Zhong Liye talk about some interesting things about the imperial city on the way. Hearing this, he said, "It should be the flight route of our flying chariot."

"That's right. We have strict rules in Tianyuan Imperial City. Different flying objects must use light bands of different colors. This fifth-level spiritual bird chariot of mine is a legal chariot with the [Imperial City Entry Permit] and [Imperial City Passenger Operation Permit], so it can use the free green light band."

"However, those public flying boats can only fly in the white light belt, and there are rules for the speed, time, and stopover locations."

"The cargo flying boats that transport goods into the Imperial City have to take those gray light bands."

"As for those distinguished yellow light bands, only high-ranking officials and royal relatives can use them. Their flying chariots or flying boats have special passes, and they can go to many more places than we can."

The flying chariot master then talked at length about the various rules and regulations in the imperial city, as well as various strange stories related to them.

The Jingyun couple and the Xiuyang couple, who were visiting the imperial city for the first time, found what they heard very new and eye-opening.

Although they had heard about the prosperity of Tianyuan Imperial City before, the verbal descriptions of others were not as shocking as seeing it with their own eyes.

What's more, everyone's focus is different, and for many things, you can only see them clearly by visiting them in person.

Besides.

The interior of the imperial city is also different from what you imagine.

The Tianyuan Imperial City is so vast and huge, with towering mountains, rivers, lakes, floating fairy islands, and even different seasonal climates in different areas, but without exception, they are all magnificent and fairy-like.

These terrains and scenery are of course not all natural, or to be more precise, there are few truly natural parts among them, and most of them have traces of artificial creation. Those magnificent scenery that seem like the legendary paradise of immortals are simply the result of artificial transformation by moving mountains and filling the sea.

Even the entire layout of the imperial city has been artificially transformed and designed, and the base of the [Xianyuan Nine Heavens Array] is hidden in these artificial designs.

If you zoom out and look at the imperial city, you will find that the entire imperial city is like a carefully arranged miniature landscape, which can be described as "a scene at every step."

The green light band routes that this spiritual bird chariot can fly are actually limited, and it cannot fly through many restricted areas. But even so, when the chariot shuttles through the various wonders and wonders inside the imperial city, it is still fascinating and eye-opening.

The chariot flew for more than an hour before arriving at a huge floating island.

This floating island is very large. It does not seem so when viewed from the ground, but once you reach high altitude, you can feel the tremendous sense of oppression brought by its huge shape.

It is hard to imagine how many precious materials are needed to build such a building.

There are several light bands converging on the floating island from different directions, and some light bands even surround it from a distance, and finally converge to a few specific locations. From afar, you can vaguely see the various strange buildings lined up on the floating island, as well as the endless stream of noisy people.

Obviously, this is a place where people gather.

This is the destination of Chen Jingyun and others' trip - "Tianxufang" in Tianyuan Imperial City.

Master Feiyan was still introducing: "You have come to the right place by coming to [Tianxufang]. The four major squares in the imperial city each have their own characteristics and wonders, but Tianxufang is the top-notch den of money among them."

"You cultivators from other places have finally come to the Tianyuan Dynasty. If you don't come to Tianxu Square, it would be a waste of your trip."

Chen Jingyun was completely speechless.

This flying chariot master hasn't stopped talking all the way here. Doesn't he feel tired?

When the flying chariot landed on the platform, Chen Jingyun paid one hundred spirit stones for the chariot. After his master thanked him and left, he finally had some peace of mind.

But at the same time, a group of guides who had been waiting around the platform seized the opportunity and surrounded them.

These guides include both male and female, and some are old and some are young, but without exception, they are all cultivators who have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"Sir, this is your first time in Tianxufang, right? My name is Lao Defa, and I have been a guide here for more than 30 years! I am familiar with every street and every store in Tianxufang, and I only charge eight spirit stones a day!"

"Sir, I am Yan Hongyu, eighty years old, and I will give you ten spirit stones a day..."

"My son... my son..."

The sound of people introducing themselves one after another instantly drowned out Chen Jingyun.

There was no way. Chen Jingyun was handsome and elegant, and he came to Tianxufang in a flying chariot. He looked like a rich young man who was generous.

He is also the most popular big customer among the guides.

This frightened Chen Jingyun, who was seeing such a scene for the first time.

Are all the cultivators in the Imperial City so enthusiastic and so aggressive? You are also foundation-building cultivators after all. Why would you go to such lengths for just eight or ten spirit stones? Why would you go to such lengths?
Especially that female cultivator, why are you touching her?

My wife is still watching from the side...

"Scatter, scatter."

Finally, it was Master Changsheng who stepped forward and exuded the powerful aura of a Jindan cultivator, shocking the group of guides who were only in the Foundation Establishment stage, and he frowned and scolded them.

"Be quiet, don't fight. My master can choose whoever he wants."

He is a worshiper of the Chen family, so there is nothing wrong in calling him "my young master".

What's more, he and Chen Jingpeng have been on business trips to Tianyuan Imperial City together in recent years to establish a family outpost for the Chen family. Not only does the Chen family provide him with enough spirit stones for his support every year, but they also give him an additional subsidy of 5,000 spirit stones!
In this way, he could easily earn an extra 10,000 spirit stones at a young age, plus the support from the sect, which made him belong to the high-income group among his fellow Jindan cultivators.

Take the old Jindan cultivator who was riding the flying chariot just now as an example. Even though he charges a hundred spirit stones for each flight, it is considered good if he can complete one order a day on average.

Of course, this is not a small amount. At most, there are 3,000 spirit stones in a month.

However, after deducting the relevant fees such as the operating license and the imperial city access permit, there would be at most 1,500 spirit stones left, and only 18,000 spirit stones would be left if the full attendance was achieved in a year.

However, raising that fifth-rank spiritual bird would consume at least tens of thousands of spiritual stones!
At most, you can have a surplus of 8,000 spirit stones.

In addition, the cost of living in the imperial city is high, and the elixirs, spiritual stones, spiritual rice, spiritual meat, etc. that he uses to maintain his cultivation are more expensive than in other places. Whether he can save three thousand spiritual stones in a year is definitely a big problem!
This data is still extremely overestimated, if you calculate it in full.

In fact, it is not achievable at all.

Just imagine, if a Jindan cultivator only needs to work for thirty years to save up an extra seventh-grade metamorphosis elixir for his descendants, this job would be very popular and he would never be able to do it!
Following Master Changsheng's scolding, those foundation-building guides indeed dispersed a lot and didn't dare to touch Chen Jingdong anymore.

Chen Jingyun calmed down and glanced at the group of guides. He immediately noticed a middle-aged monk dressed in a green robe and a scholar at the back of the crowd.

He seemed a little downcast, with a look of longing in his eyes, but he did not rush up to surround Chen Jingyun like the others.

Chen Jingyun nodded to him and said, "My fellow Taoist, I am new to your precious place. Please be our guide."

The middle-aged monk in green robes was stunned, and pointed at himself in disbelief: "Sir, are you sure you want to choose me?"

He was different from these guides, most of whom were independent cultivators or came from low-income families. His family was well-off when he was a child, and he lived a wealthy life for a long time. It was only after he was over a hundred years old that his family fell into poverty, and in order to provide resources for the cultivation of his children, he had to go out to earn money.

However, he was used to a comfortable life and could not bring himself to ask others for business. He always felt that it was no different from begging. As a result, he could not get many orders in a month. Even with the meager commission given by the merchants when he was a shopping guide, he still could not earn many spirit stones and could not even support himself.

"It's just you."

Chen Jingyun nodded at him.

This man had an elegant temperament and looked quite pleasing to the eye. He was thinking that it didn't matter who the money was for, so he naturally had to pick someone he liked.

What's more, those people who surrounded him and recommended themselves and seemed extremely enthusiastic might be colluding with some unscrupulous businessmen to cheat him of his spirit stones.

"Thank you, sir. I will only take eight spirit stones." The middle-aged, down-and-out green-robed monk was very grateful and took the initiative to lower the price.

He remembered that his last order was six days ago.

Chen Jingyun nodded without saying anything more. He raised his hand to signal him to follow, and then walked out of the flying chariot platform first.

The other guides looked at their receding backs, all of them revealing expressions of regret and jealousy.

It's obvious at first glance that these outsiders are very rich. As long as you serve them well, you will surely get all kinds of tips. If you spend enough at related businesses, you may even get a lot of commissions!
If this order is completed, it may be enough to cover a month's harvest. However, no one dared to cause trouble. After all, there were many people following the wealthy-looking young man. Not to mention the old man with the golden elixir aura, the mature man in a black robe with sharp eyes was probably also a golden elixir aura.

And the woman in scarlet palace dress and a veil on her face looked unfathomable and kept away from strangers.

Out of the flying chariot platform.

The middle-aged man in green robe walked beside Chen Jingyun and introduced himself respectfully: "My name is Ji Shengqing, may I ask what your name is?"

"Friend Ji, don't be so humble. Just call me Jingyun." Chen Jingyun said in a very well-educated and elegant manner.

"No, no, Master Jingyun, you came to Tianxufang. What do you need?" Ji Shengqing's eyebrows relaxed a little after hearing this, but his attitude remained respectful. "Tell me, so I can introduce you to you."

Chen Jingyun said, "We don't have any special purpose, we just want to take a look around. Fellow Daoist Ji, why don't you give us a brief introduction first?"

The biggest purpose of this trip, of course, is to bet on the first draw of the red mark, but there are so many people traveling together this time, how can he go straight to the treasure betting area right away?
Not only would this directly expose his purpose, it would also make him look like a spendthrift gambler. What if he scared Master Hong Fu?
Ji Shengqing raised his head slightly and glanced at the people accompanying Chen Jingyun out of the corner of his eye.

The old Jindan master and the mature man both had alert looks in their eyes, protecting everyone inside. They should be the Jindan priests or family guards of their families.

In addition, there is a young man who looks younger, and he should be the younger generation of Young Master Jingyun.

The rest were three women. Even without looking closely, he could sense their extraordinary temperaments, and most of them were of great background.

He had a rough idea in his mind, and said sincerely: "Tianxufang is a miniature of the imperial city market, and it has everything you need."

"If Master Jingyun wants to buy ready-made clothing for men and women, and high-end rouge and powder, he can go to Xianyi Pavilion, Yipinlou and other places. However, the prices of men and women's ready-made clothing and nourishing products in these two places are extremely luxurious. The shops next to them are more cost-effective. You can take a good look and compare them."

"I've heard for a long time that the Imperial City's Fairy Clothing Pavilion has launched a product called [Ice Silk Treasure Dress]. It's said to be made of the finest silk spun from seventh-level ice silkworms. Wearing it can moisturize the skin, not only protecting against the scorching heat, but can even drive away magma and underground fire."

Before anyone else spoke, Princess Yun Yi, who had been silent the whole time, spoke with interest: "Husband, accompany me to take a look later."

"Okay, ma'am." Chen Xiuyang said without thinking, "If you like it, I'll buy it for you."

"No, my husband is still in the start-up phase and needs a lot of money." Princess Yunyi took his arm affectionately, "I have saved some private money, so I can buy it myself."

This statement came out.

The green-robed monk Ji Shengqing's heart trembled violently.

The Ice Silk Treasure Dress, that is the most expensive female outfit in the Fairy Clothing Pavilion. Not to mention a complete set, a pair of bellyband alone costs tens of thousands of spirit stones... If it is a full set of treasure dress...

He quickly lowered his head and dared not say anything.

In fact, even True Person Hong Fu couldn't help but glanced at the young couple who were showing off their wealth.

This young couple, one is a major shareholder of Dawu Culture, and the other is the person in charge of Dawu Royal Manor, and both of them are not short of money.

As the mistress of Wanhua Palace, she is not as rich as them!

At her level, even if she didn't think about making further progress and saved all the money she could, and lived frugally, she would still have to consume hundreds of thousands of spirit stones a year, which was definitely a huge expense for the sect.

Do you think she can afford the ice-gauze dress?

After all, he is the leader of a sect, so he can afford it if he grits his teeth.

But she definitely couldn't bear to spend so many spirit stones to buy a set that was just for show and basically useless to her.

With that money, it would be better to buy more cultivation resources for myself, or to subsidize the sisters in Wanhua Palace.

Subsequently.

Ji Shengqing then introduced: "If you want to buy spiritual tools, magic weapons, and various ingenious items, you can go to [Duobao Street]. There are many tool refining workshops there, which have both finished products and custom-made ones. If you want to refine pills or buy formation items, there are places for them."

"In addition, the Tianque Palace is quite lively at night, with various fairy dance performances, and various high-end restaurants and inns where you can stay and eat. However, the prices at high-end restaurants and inns are quite high. If you want to save more, we can go to a small inn near the Tianque Palace. Although the accommodation environment is slightly worse, it is more cost-effective..."

Speaking of which.

Chen Jingyun interrupted, "Fellow Daoist Ji, which inn is the best in Tianque Palace? Let's check in first and then go somewhere else."

"Ah, this... the best?" Ji Shengqing was stunned for a moment before he said, "If you want to say the best, it must be [Hidden Immortal Tower]. The biggest boss behind it is the Tianyuan Imperial Family. However, the cheapest yellow-number room in the Hidden Immortal Tower costs 188 spirit stones per night, that is, one night!"

When saying this, Ji Shengqing naturally wanted to remind Master Jingyun that the Hidden Immortal Tower was truly outrageously expensive!
"Okay, let's go to Yinxian Tower." Chen Jingyun said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Ji, please lead the way."

Ji Shengqing glanced at Chen Jingyun as if to confirm, and seeing that he looked calm and did not seem to be joking, he quickly led everyone to the Tianque Palace area and entered the "Hidden Immortal Tower" at the core location.

This is a piece of pavilions and towers that looks like a fairy palace, with white jade as the platform and green jade as the steps. It is magnificent and majestic.

The most important thing is that every room in the Hidden Immortal Building has formations connected to the spiritual veins, and practicing in them is very beneficial to one's cultivation.

In the reception hall.

The Jindan female cultivator in charge of reception respectfully introduced the situation to Chen Jingyun: "Our Xuan and Huang rooms are connected to different levels of high-grade spiritual veins, and the Tian and Di rooms are connected to the ultimate spiritual veins. In addition, we also have a unique [True Immortal Suite], which is connected to the [Sacred Spiritual Vein] of the Tianyuan Palace."

"Is the True Immortal Suite the Moon-Lanyue Residence located on the top of the dome?" Chen Jingyun asked, "There is only one suite, no other?"

"Yes." When the Jindan female cultivator heard him asking about Lanyueju, her expression suddenly became serious, "However, the price of our True Immortal Suite is 3888 Spirit Stones per night, and the minimum stay is ten days."

Good guy.

Chen Jingyun was secretly shocked.

This was definitely the most expensive suite he had ever heard of. Staying here for a day would cost roughly the price of a foundation-building pill.

You know, many low-level cultivators fight for their entire lives just for a foundation-building pill!

However, since the purpose this time is to capture Master Hong Fu, he would naturally not sacrifice the child to catch the wolf.

Without any hesitation, he said directly: "Then let's get a True Immortal Suite first and book it for ten days."

Ah this!

The Jindan female cultivator's delicate body trembled, and the smile on her face became extremely sweet: "Sir, if you are sure, I will help you reserve it right away."

Because of the price, this suite cannot be booked every day. Sometimes, there may not be a single guest in a year, and the maintenance fee cannot be recovered. But since their Yinxianlou is known as the best restaurant, this is naturally a problem.

"and many more."

True Person Hong Fu was also startled and quickly spoke up to stop him: "Jingyun boy, why did you book such an expensive suite?"

"Senior Hong Fu, you are the number one female cultivator in our Great Wu Kingdom and number one on the Fairy Ranking. Aren't you worthy of a mere True Fairy Suite?" Chen Jingyun flattered with a smile, "Don't worry, we at the Chen family can use the spirit stones as a hospitality account."

Master Hong Fu fell silent for a moment.

She has lived for more than 38880 years, so this is not her first time to be on a business trip to Tianyuan Imperial City, but she has never stayed in a True Immortal Suite that costs spirit stones for ten nights.

It’s not that she can’t afford the money, but she’s mainly reluctant to do so.

For example.

For a medium-sized treasure ship like their Wanhua Treasure Ship, the distance from Wanhua Palace to Tianyuan Imperial City is about 1.6 million miles, and the total amount of spirit stones consumed is about 80,000.

After careful calculations, they figured out the most appropriate load based on the maximum cargo capacity, and transported a large amount of goods along the way. After selling all of them, they can make a gross profit of roughly 60,000 to 70,000 yuan.

But if you calculate carefully, this voyage will still cost you a loss of 10,000 or 20,000 spirit stones.

It can be said that a trip to Tianyuan Continent will result in a loss of money, not to mention the return trip.

This is also to bring the outstanding young people in the sect to participate in the Taixuan Heroes Conference, otherwise she would really be reluctant.

The money for staying in this True Immortal Suite for ten days is enough for a round trip on Wanhua Treasure Boat.

True Person Hong Fu had thought that as a Nascent Soul cultivator, she could indulge herself occasionally, but as soon as she thought that staying for ten nights would consume six or seven years of cultivation resources of a Jindan sister, she couldn't bring herself to do it!
Originally, the sect was not well-off after supporting her, a Nascent Soul cultivator. At most, it was slightly better off than the Yunyang Sect. How could she bear to squander it?
Seeing that she was interested, Chen Jingyun placed the order directly and said with a smile: "Senior Hongfu, please go and take a look first. If you don't like it, let Qianqian and I stay here."

The smile on the face of the Jindan female cultivator became sweeter. She happily took the money, and then immediately and respectfully invited True Immortal Hong Fu to the highest True Immortal Suite [Lan Yue Ju] in the Hidden Immortal Tower.

Although Master Hong Fu said that it was bad, her body was very honest and she soon stood in Lan Yue Ju.

How to say it~

Lanyueju is worthy of its name "Lanyue". Standing on the terrace of Lanyueju and looking out, you feel that the entire imperial city is at your feet. With a casual wave of your jade hand, it seems that you can embrace the moon in the sky into your arms.

Zhenren Hongfu felt instantly overjoyed.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, it is natural that she has seen many strange and beautiful sights. She has seen many more magnificent sights than this.

But how can this be the same?
This is a view of 3888 in one night!
At the moment, there is only one word that can describe her mood, that is - so cool!
