Chapter 1827
byPurple Cloud Star, the main star of the Purple Star, one of the three major forces in the star field.
Together with Water Moon Star of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce and Sword Star of the Sword League, it is listed as the three top cultivation stars in the entire star field. In terms of the richness of the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, the abundance of material production, or the average level of martial artists, these three cultivation stars are far ahead of other cultivation stars by a large margin.
If cultivation stars are also divided into different grades, then the Tongxuan Continent is undoubtedly the lowest existence, and Dark Star can be ranked in the middle, both of which are far inferior to these three cultivation stars.
Zixing City, with an unknown area, is vast and boundless. There are numerous magnificent buildings standing in it, and wide streets crisscross. On both sides of the streets, there are all kinds of shops with a dazzling array of goods, and there are countless martial artists coming and going like fish crossing the river.
This is the general helm of Zixing.
For any martial artist of Zixing, this is a city that symbolizes honor and belonging.
Zixing City is located on a good vein of the earth, so the spiritual energy in the city is no worse than that of those spiritual mountains and great rivers. The inner city is even more full of spiritual energy and is the most core area of Zixing. Non-important personnel of Zixing are not allowed to enter.
On this day, a stream of light shot over from an extremely distant place. When it was about a hundred zhang away from Zixing City, it suddenly stopped. The light dissipated, revealing the figure of a young man.
It was Yang Kai who arrived here in a hurry.
Starting from Lingxiao Sect, although he passed through the transmission of the super spatial twice and saved a lot of time Yang Kai still spent half a year flying alone from the star field to Zixiao Star.
The purpose of his coming here is very simple, that is the Star Emperor Token in the Zixing Treasury.
Of course, if there are other gains, that would be even better. After all, the place where the Star Emperor Token is hidden is the Zixing Treasury, and there can’t be only one token.
Divine thought released slightly sensed for a moment Yang Kai couldn’t help but secretly be shocked by the grandeur and vastness of Purple Star City. A city of this scale could probably only be built and maintained by a large power.
The city wall was about thirty zhang high and was all purple, he didn’t know what material it was cast from. Yang Kai could clearly sense a trace of thesmell of a powerful restriction from it.
It could be imagined that if there were foreign enemies coming to humiliate, Purple Star City could activate the city formation to resist the powerful enemies.
However… Yang Kai estimated that there was probably no such blind guy who dared to come here to find trouble.
“This is Purple Star City？” Yang Kai seemed to be talking to himself, narrowing his eyes and looking ahead.
The next moment, a slightly flattering voice came to his ears： “In reply to Young Master Yang’s words, this is indeed the Purple Star City, the general helm of our Purple Star. Young Master Yang is so fast. I don’t feel that much time has passed, and you have actually arrived here.”
That voice was extremely slight, and it was a divine message. Besides Yang Kai, no one else could hear it.
It was the Purple East who was hiding in the Soul Fixing Bowl.
Yang Kai dared to single-handedly venture into the Purple Star general helm, naturally not because of mineless passion. His biggest reliance was the information that Purple East could provide. With this Purple Star Young Master as a guide, as long as he acted carefully, it should not be too difficult to enter that Purple Star Treasure Vault.
Of course, the premise was that this kid didn’t play any tricks.
After getting along for a while, Yang Kai also discovered that although this kid had extraordinary talent and was qualified to be compared with Xue Yue and Gu Jianxin, his character was far inferior. At this moment, Zi Donglai no longer had his former high spirits. He was just like a homeless dog struggling to survive, and was respectful and submissive to Yang Kai, not daring to disobey in the slightest.
“Sure enough prosperous. Are all those warships in the sky yours from Purple Star？” Yang Kai looked up at the sky. There were more than one warship suspended in the distance in the sky, about twenty or thirty of them. Although it was too far away for Yang Kai to sense the grade of these warships, since they dared to stop above Purple Star City, they surely wouldn’t be too bad.
“Most of them are.” Zi Donglai replied proudly. “What Young Master Yang saw is just the tip of the iceberg. Our Purple Star has trade relations with large and small forces throughout the star field. Maybe there are also some warships from other forces that have come in.”
“Hmm.” Yang Kai nodded slightly. “You just restrain your aura. I’m going in.”
“Yes！” Zi Donglai obediently replied and quickly hid in the Soul Fixing Bowl.
Yang Kai stepped out and walked towards the towering city gate. That city gate was like the mouth of a giant beast, as tall as the city wall, making people feel intimidated. Warriors who came to Purple Star City for the first time would definitely be shocked by the might of this city gate and then feel humble in their hearts and not dare to act presumptuously in Purple Star City.
There was a long queue outside the gate, and many warriors were waiting to enter the city.
Yang Kai didn’t want to be too conspicuous either, so he obediently fell to the end of the queue.
As time passed, constantly someone paid a certain number of Saint Crystals, received the special pass order and walked into the city.
Suddenly, an unhappy shout came from the front： “This sir, why did you only collect a hundred top-grade Saint Crystals when that person went in just now, but when it’s my turn, you want to collect a thousand？ Isn’t this against the rules？”
“Rules？” A cold laugh came. “I, as the city gate guard, my words are the rules. Either hand over the Saint Crystals or get lost！”
“You…” The person who had spoken earlier was so angry that he was at a loss for words. “Is this how the warriors of your Purple Star bully others by relying on their power？ I’m not convinced！”
The warriors who were queuing up and waiting to enter also mostly showed unhappy expressions. But after all, this was someone else’s territory, so even if they were unhappy in their hearts, no one said anything.
Yang Kai raised his eyes and looked over there. He found that the person arguing with the city gate guard was a middle-aged man in his thirties. He was dressed very simply. With a sweep of his spiritual thoughts, he found that the other party only had the cultivation base of the Second-Order Saint King Realm. He didn’t know where he came from and actually made trouble here for a thousand high-grade Saint Crystals.
Yang Kai secretly shook his head, feeling that this person’s situation was probably worrying.
Taking advantage of one’s power to bully others？” Suddenly, an old voice sounded. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and found that an old man who had been sitting aside suddenly grinned hideously. The old man had a wrinkled face and looked extremely old. When he got up and walked, he was also trembling. His hands were tucked in his sleeves, as if he would die at any moment. Even his eyes were gray, making people feel extremely scared.”
The Third-Order Void Returning Realm！ Yang Kai’s heart moved. Purple Star was indeed Purple Star. Even at the city gate, there was a martial artist of the Third-Order Void Returning Realm sitting in town！
As the old man spoke, he took a few steps forward and looked coldly at the person causing trouble： “Well said. Today, I will let you understand what it means to take advantage of one’s power to bully others！”
As soon as the words fell, he suddenly rushed to the front of the middle-aged man and, under his horrified gaze, slapped him on the head.
The middle-aged man only had the cultivation base of the Second-Order Saint King Realm. How could he resist the sudden attack of the Third-Order Void Returning Realm？
With a shrill cry, he tried to retreat.
But the old man’s hand seemed to have a huge suction force, firmly fixing him in place. A surging pulling force came, and the middle-aged man screamed. Visibly, strands of pure energy flowed out from the top of his head, transmitted to the old man’s withered hand, and then absorbed by him.
Outside the city gate, everyone stepped back in horror, their faces showing fear.
No, senior, spare me. I’ll hand over the Saint Crystals！
Regretting now？ What were you doing earlier？
In just three breaths, the middle-aged man was sucked until only skin and bones were left. He completely collapsed to the ground, with no sign of life. On the contrary, the old man’s face flashed a hint of unusual ruddy complexion as if he had suddenly become more than ten years younger, looking refreshed.
Outside the city gate, there was a deathly silence, and every martial artist felt a chill in their bones.
After doing all this, the old man walked back as if nothing had happened and continued to close his eyes and meditate.
“Thank you, Deacon Min.” The city gate guard nodded and bowed to the old man, with a flattering smile on his face. As soon as he turned around, his expression became stern and he shouted sharply: This person is a spy sent by the hostile forces to infiltrate our Purple Star City. He was detected by Deacon Min and killed on the spot as a warning to others. Come on, carry him down and throw him into the graveyard outside the city.
Immediately, two Purple Star warriors walked out and quickly carried away the horrible corpse.
Everyone knew that this guy was telling lies with his eyes open, but no one dared to refute.
“It’s almost dark. Those who still want to enter the city should hurry up. The city gate will be closed on time at the hour of Hai. At that time, you won’t be able to get in even if you want to. Hehe, what will happen outside at night, I’m afraid you all know…” After the city gate guard finished speaking, he ignored everyone.
However, the warriors queuing up waiting had a slight change in their expressions and stepped forward to pay the holy crystals and enter the city, as if there was really a huge danger outside at night.
Although the death of the middle-aged man just now made them feel a sense of sadness like a rabbit mourning the death of its fellow, who made others have bigger fists and who made that guy so without eyesight, daring to be here for just one thousand holy crystals. What else is this but seeking death on one’s own.
The city gate guard didn’t seem to have any criterion for collecting Saint Crystals. He just quoted prices randomly. When he saw a beautiful girl, he would also crack a few jokes. If he could hold her hand or take some liberties, he would even let her pass for free.
There were several people who he didn’t like the look of, so they had to pay a large number of Saint Crystals.
But with the previous example as a lesson, no one dared to have any complaints.
Soon, it was Yang Kai’s turn.
The city gate guard looked up at Yang Kai and snorted coldly： “Five thousand！”
Yang Kai frowned. This number was the highest quotation he had ever heard. He didn’t know where he had made this guy unhappy. Although he was not happy in his heart, he didn’t want to cause extra troubles. He reached out and wiped in the Space Ring, and then a pile of Saint Crystals appeared in front of the city gate guard.
The city gate guard looked at Yang Kai in surprise, as if he didn’t expect the other party to be so cooperative.
Playing with a pass token in his hand, the city gate guard smiled and said： “Friend, five thousand is the production cost of this pass token. If you want to stay in the city for a long time, you have to pay another ten thousand Saint Crystals.”
“Hehe…” Yang Kai couldn’t help but laugh, thinking that this guy was treating him as a sucker？
