Chapter 62: Imperial Object

  Entering Tianshui City, Ji Changkong only truly understood why Tianshui City was known as the wealthiest city under heaven!

  Tianshui City is very large, with a glance, it's all black and crowded houses, the roads are wide and there are many vehicles.

  Rows of shops lined both sides of the street, with flags bearing inn and wine shop signs fluttering high. Most pedestrians in the city wore brocade clothes, with beautiful jade and pearls at their waists, and bulging pouches on their bodies, as if filled with gold, silver, and treasures.

  In some elegant buildings, girls looked down at the pedestrians on the street from the windowsills, their bright eyes moving, occasionally giggling and smiling, as if looking for a Mr. Right. The girls in Tianshui City were not shy, those on the road were in pairs or threes, walking together with their heads down, smiling and whispering to each other, holding fans in their hands, boldly staring at handsome young men.

  It's unclear whether it was because the Lingbao Conference was about to begin, but there were not a few Tian Shi wearing divine weapons on the road. As Ji Changkong walked along the spacious street, he could clearly sense that in some of the surrounding houses and inns, there were fluctuations of yuan force of varying strengths. Some of these Tian Shi were traveling alone, while many others were traveling together, with their yuan forces concentrated.

  The merchant team of the Murong family entered Tianshui City and parted ways with Ji Changkong and Bai Qingya. Before leaving, Murong Yan repeatedly invited Bai Qingya to visit the Murong residence as a guest, but was politely declined by Bai Qingya.

  "Let's go, we'll find a place to stay first."

  Upon arriving at the Heavenly Water City, Bai Qingye completely relaxed, knowing that even if the dark followers of Manichaeism had the audacity to do evil, they wouldn't dare to do so in broad daylight within the city. The city guards patrolling along the way were all selected from various prominent families, each with extraordinary abilities, and were not something a few dark followers could handle.

  For the first time going out, Ji Changkong was unfamiliar with the world, and let Bai Qingya arrange everything.

  Soon, the two of them settled down in a humble inn on a quiet street in Tianshui City. Bai Qingya chose two rooms with adjacent walls and after they had settled in, she exchanged a few words with Ji Changkong before hastily closing the door to meditate.

  Ji Changkong, who had long been accustomed to loneliness, didn't rush out to explore the Tian Shui City immediately. Many things had happened in the past ten or so days, and he planned to calm his mind and think carefully before continuing to try and condense the Fresh Blood into Yuan Force.

  For three days, Ji Changkong did not leave the house, and when he was hungry, he would take some dried meat from his bag to fill his stomach. He concentrated on experiencing the strange fresh blood in his body, but unfortunately, he still gained nothing.

  Next door, Bai Qingya also didn't take a step out of her room, quietly recovering from the internal injuries, separated by a wall, Ji Changkong calmed down, sometimes even able to hear her steady breathing.

  ……

  Three days later, early in the morning.

  Knock knock knock!

  Bai Qingya knocked on the wall and suddenly asked: "Changkong, are you there?"

  On the way to Tianshui City, she rode horseback with Ji Changkong side by side and talked a lot, knowing his name early on.

  "Uh-huh."

  Across the wall, Ji Changkong responded with a single word.

  "Thanks to your miracle medicine, my injuries have improved a lot. You must have been bored for the past three days, right? Come on, I'll take you out for a stroll. There are plenty of interesting places in Tianshui City. It's your first time here, so you should get a feel for it!" Bai Qingya said with a light smile.

  "Alright!" replied Ji Changkong, washing his face and waiting outside.

  After a while, Bai Qingya walked out with a new set of clothes. Her face was no longer pale, but radiant and beaming with joy. She smiled brightly as she walked shoulder to shoulder with Ji Changkong out of the inn and onto the bustling streets of Tianshui City.

  ……

  "Hey, it's lively over there!"

  After a while, Ji Changkong suddenly let out a soft cry. He felt that in the front of a large mansion with an extremely large area, there were many intense yuan power fluctuations. Some young and middle-aged Tian Shi rushed inside, as if there was something exciting to see inside. The guards at the gate of the mansion smiled and waited for them to rush in, without stretching out their hands to block them.

  "It's even more lively inside!" Bai Qingya smiled and walked towards the inside with her slender waist swaying.

  Two guards at the gate of the mansion saw a beautiful woman approaching and their smiles became even more enthusiastic, they hastily bowed to invite Bai Qingya in.

  Ji Changkong was taken aback for a moment, and also curiously followed up.

  As soon as they entered the mansion, a loud rumbling sound immediately rang out!

  In front of us was a huge martial arts arena, surrounded by various weapons and armor. There were iron discs as large as millstones, and stone pillars that were several times thicker than a person...

  The arena's edge had a viewing platform erected, on which sat powerful heavenly masters with magnificent attire and strong yuan force fluctuations.

  In the center of the martial arts arena, young and middle-aged cultivators came in one after another, seemingly undergoing a special test. Some bent down to lift iron discs or thick stone pillars, while others used their internal energy to explode fist-sized stones into fragments. Those who passed the test were arranged to engage in combat on a designated battlefield.

  The powerful Tiān Shì on the surrounding watchtowers gazed intently at the Tiān Shì clashing on the fragmented battlefields, occasionally exchanging hushed conversations.

  Some people shook their heads and sighed, taking no action. Some people's eyes lit up, and they whispered to the people beside them, whereupon some of the people on the observation deck walked down from the observation deck, and after the heavenly warriors had a brief rest after fighting on the battlefield, they went forward smiling and discussing something.

  Inside the mansion, people's voices were noisy and loud. Ji Changkong had not yet figured out what was going on when an old man wearing a dark green robe shouted impatiently: "Youngster, don't block the way! Register your name, state your tomorrow's scholar level, then go to the front for testing first!"

  "I've already helped him register, Bai Hui, Three Talents of the Heavenly Boundary." Bai Qingya suddenly appeared behind the old man, smiling brightly.

  "It was Miss Bai who brought him, well, just take him to the front and test his yuan force treasure and yuan force condensed object." The old man smiled and waved his hand, gesturing for Ji Changkong to hurry over.

  "Come on, I'll take you to have some fun here. Just listen to me." As Ji Changkong looked puzzled, Bai Qingya reached out and pulled his sleeve, leading him to a round platform filled with stones of various sizes, and shouted at an ordinary-looking woman: "Lijie, remember this, White Radiance, Three Talents Heaven Realm."

  "Hey, it's the elegant one who brought people here, with a pretty and delicate appearance. It's still in the Three Talents Heavenly Boundary, not bad, not bad." Tan Li pointed at the smallest stone in front of her, smiling slyly at Ji Changkong: "Three zhang away, you try to use your yuan power to move this stone first, then try a slightly larger one."

  "Xiao Hui, give it a try, just for fun." Seeing Ji Changkong's hesitation, Bai Qingya smiled and encouraged him by his side.

  Although I don't know what's going on, since Bai Qingya is familiar with this place and I've saved her life before, she shouldn't harm me. Moreover, the name used for the trial is a fake one, so there should be no problem.

  After a moment's thought, Ji Changkong no longer hesitated. With his mind calm and focused, he raised his hand and beckoned, and the fist-sized stone in front of him rose lightly into the air. As Ji Changkong's yuan energy fluctuated, the stone danced rapidly through the air.

  "Alright, alright!"

  Tan Li smiled and stopped, seeing Ji Changkong no longer swinging the stone in mid-air, she pointed to a stone basin on the round platform and said: "Try this one, if you can lift it three feet high with your yuan force, that's enough, don't play too many fancy moves, you guy, your yuan force seems very deep!"

  Wow!

  Before she had even finished speaking, the stone basin-sized rock suddenly flew up with Ji Changkong's raised hand and after three feet, it fell steadily onto the round platform.

  "Uh..." Tan Li looked at Bai Qingya with some surprise and a bitter smile, seemingly asking for her meaning.

  Huh?

  A soft cry came from the watchtower next door, and a black-clad old Tian Shi who had only inadvertently glanced this way, did not immediately withdraw his gaze, but instead narrowed his pupils and focused intently on Ji Changkong.

  At this moment, the yuan stone that was used to test the control of Yuan Li over objects, which was as large as a millstone, had already been lifted up by Ji Changkong with his Yuan Li and was rapidly rolling in mid-air at a height of ten zhang.

  This is the largest and heaviest stone on the circular platform!

  Tan Li, who had not finished speaking, was stunned, looked up at the huge stone plate rolling rapidly above her head, and then looked at Ji Changkong, who was calm and composed. She raised an eyebrow, suddenly stared at Bai Qingya, and said: "Qingya, are you seeing me as idle, deliberately bringing a Four Symbol Heaven guy to tease me?"
