Longevity: Start with your own wine-making technique

Half a month later, Xuanwu Empire, Xuanwu City.

Xuanwu City is the imperial city of Xuanwu Empire, one of the ten great empires in the Middle Earth. There are many powerful clans and Gu Kings in the city. It is extremely rich and is one of the few super cities with cross-domain teleportation arrays.

Long Xuan put down the map and looked at the tall city wall in front of him, frowning slightly.

He found that the flag in the city was no longer the flag of Xuanwu Empire, but the flag of Dajin Empire was changed at some point.

The flag of Dajin Empire is just a simple golden word, the font is golden, fluttering in the wind.

Looking at the wall full of war scars, it seems that the war has just ended not long ago, Long Xuan understood in his heart.

It seems that he has delayed too much time in refining the reincarnation pill, and the delay has caused changes, so that during this period of time, the imperial city of Xuanwu Empire has fallen.

The powerful Xuanwu Imperial City was unable to resist the attack of the puppet army, and Long Xuan was shocked.

I don’t know whether the current Xuanwu royal family has been destroyed or abandoned the city and fled.

During this period of seclusion, he was isolated from the news and had no idea what was happening outside.

The changes in Xuanwu City were beyond his expectations.

Long Xuan took a deep breath and walked towards the city gate.

Although Xuanwu City had been occupied by the Great Jin Empire, he was still prepared to teleport to the Central Region through the cross-domain teleportation array in Xuanwu City.

There were too few cross-domain teleportation arrays. If he chose to give up this time, he might have to wait for a few months to find the second cross-domain teleportation array.

If a similar change happened again at that time, it would be delayed.

Time had been delayed for a long time, and he didn't want to waste time anymore. He realized that there was no peak Gu King in the city, so he was ready to take the risk to break into the city.

With his current combat power, he could basically ignore any Gu King except the peak Gu King who could pose a threat to him.

With strong strength as a backing, he, the Gou King, also became unusually bold.

As soon as he entered the city, Long Xuan felt the tense atmosphere in the city. The pedestrians in the city hurried to various shops, and were about to clear out all the supplies in the major shops. The city seemed to be in a storm, as if something big was going to happen.

Hearing the conversations of the pedestrians on the road, Long Xuan finally understood what happened and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He was unlucky. After the fall of Xuanwu Imperial City, the face of the royal family was damaged. The emperor was furious. After escaping with the royal family members, he immediately gathered a large number of people in the surrounding cities to prepare to recapture Xuanwu Imperial City.

The army of the Xuanwu royal family will arrive tomorrow. At that time, there will inevitably be a fierce siege battle here. I don't know how many people will die in this battle.

A war is about to break out here. It is unknown whether the teleportation array in the city is allowed to be used. How can he not sigh that he is unlucky at this time.

Long Xuan made a bitter face and did not dare to delay. He ran to the location of the teleportation array as fast as possible, praying in his heart that it was not too late.

Soon he ran to the center of the city and came to the location of the teleportation hall. Only then did he find that the door of the teleportation hall was already crowded with people.

The crowd pushed each other and shouted, but everyone was blocked outside the door, and no one could get in for a long time.

Obviously, a war is about to happen here. Many people don't want to be dragged into the war, so they want to leave this place of trouble through the teleportation array.

Since this group of people were all blocked outside the door and kept shouting and cursing, it was obvious that the teleportation array here had been disabled. Long Xuan's face was extremely ugly, and he sighed that what he feared would come true.

This scene seemed familiar. In order to fight against the Black Dragon Pirates, Leng Qianqiu, the owner of the Great Solitary Island, trapped all outsiders in the city on the grounds that the teleportation array was broken.

It was precisely because Leng Qianqiu dragged all outsiders in the city into the war that he was lucky enough to defeat the Black Dragon Pirates.

Although this plan was damaged, it was practical.

The Great Jin Empire might also do this, preparing to drag all the foreign Gu cultivators in the city into this war to increase the chances of winning.

Long Xuan rolled his eyes and fell into deep thought. Just as he was thinking about it, an old man walked out of the door of the teleportation hall and made a gesture of stopping life.

"Everyone, be quiet. My name is Guo Tianren, and I am the guardian of the teleportation hall."

"I am really sorry, the army of the Xuanwu Empire will arrive tomorrow."

"In order to avoid a large number of reinforcements supporting Xuanwu City through the teleportation array, it will increase the difficulty of attacking the city.

"The Xuanwu royal family sent the Gu King to sneak into the city and destroyed all the teleportation arrays in the city. It is impossible to repair them within three months. "

Hearing this, Long Xuan couldn't help but twitch his mouth, and at this moment he really had an urge to vomit blood.

Sure enough, the same plot.

At that time, Leng Qianqiu used a trick to destroy all the ships to prevent people from leaving the island. This time, the Great Jin Empire must also make up a reason to seal the city gate and trap everyone inside.

All foreign Gu cultivators in the city will become cannon fodder in this battle.

As soon as Guo Tianren said this, the crowd was in chaos as expected, shouting and cursing.

"Are you kidding me? Xuanwu City is a super city, with at least dozens of teleportation arrays. How can so many teleportation arrays be destroyed without leaving a single one? Are you treating us as fools? "

"That's right, you said it was broken, so why don't I believe it? Do you dare to let us in to check it out? "

"Haha! All the teleportation arrays are broken, what a coincidence, you think we will believe that this war is a matter between your two countries, please don't involve me, let me out. "

The crowd was getting more and more chaotic. Seeing that they were getting angry and about to cause a riot, Guo Tianren raised his mouth, as if he had expected this scene, and said:

"You all don't believe it, right? Someone wants to check the teleportation array, right? Then I will let you in to check."

"Now this door is free, everyone can enter and exit at will."

After he finished speaking, he stepped aside and looked at the crowd with a smile.

The crowd was stunned for a moment. Guo Tianren agreed to let people go in to check the teleportation array, which was beyond everyone's expectations. But after just a moment of stunned, the crowd rushed into the door frantically.

How could they put aside their doubts without seeing it with their own eyes?

Long Xuan relied on his strong physical strength and easily squeezed into the teleportation hall.

What came into view were large and small teleportation arrays, some of which were small teleportation arrays that could only teleport across countries, and some were medium-sized teleportation arrays that could only teleport across neighboring regions.

The largest one was the large teleportation array, there was only one, standing in the center of the hall, which could lead directly to the distant Central Region.

The legendary cross-domain teleportation array that can cross the border does not exist here.

Long Xuan roughly estimated that there are fifty teleportation arrays here.

He secretly smacked his lips and couldn't help but sigh at the wealth of the Xuanwu Empire. The teleportation array is expensive, and few powerful tribes can afford to build a teleportation array. It is rare to have one teleportation array in a city, but there are fifty of them here, worthy of being the imperial city of a super empire.

However, these five priceless teleportation arrays were all violently destroyed without exception, including the most expensive cross-domain teleportation array.

Long Xuan's mouth twitched again, and he sighed secretly, the people of the Great Jin Empire were really cruel, and they actually made a fake play and destroyed all the teleportation arrays.

At that time, Leng Qianqiu only pretended to destroy the teleportation array, but the Great Jin Empire actually destroyed it at this time.

Fifty teleportation arrays, how amazing the cost is, and they were destroyed just like that, it was crazy, the decision makers in Xuanwu City were also bold.

Perhaps this was not his thing in the first place, and he didn't intend to cherish it.

Although there was no evidence, Long Xuan had already guessed that these teleportation arrays were destroyed by the Great Jin Empire itself.

Long Xuan frowned and scanned all the teleportation arrays one by one, and finally focused his eyes on the largest teleportation array, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

There were not many array masters who knew teleportation arrays, and he was one of the few array masters who were proficient in teleportation array patterns.

With his eyesight, he could see that the cross-domain teleportation array seemed to have a large area of ​​damage and was difficult to repair, but in fact it was only slightly damaged and would not take much time to repair.

It seemed that the value of the cross-domain teleportation array was such that even the Great Jin Empire was reluctant to destroy it easily, and they still overestimated their courage.

After investigating the situation of this teleportation array, Long Xuan did not act rashly, pretending to be disappointed and sighing with the crowd.

"Did you see that? All the teleportation arrays are really destroyed. I didn't lie to you."

"We also want to quickly repair these teleportation arrays, but there are no array masters in the city who are good at repairing teleportation arrays."

"Are there any array masters among you? If you are, please raise your hands. As long as anyone can help us repair the teleportation arrays here, the Great Jin Empire will give you generous gifts."

Guo Tianren smiled and scanned the faces of the crowd one by one.

Long Xuan snorted in his heart. If anyone dared to raise his hand at this time, he might not have the chance to see the sun tomorrow.

After a while, seeing that no one in the crowd raised their hands, Guo Tianren nodded and said to the crowd: "You have also seen the formation. All the teleportation formations are indeed destroyed. It is useless for you to worry."

"The war is imminent. In order to avoid sneak attacks from the strong men of the Xuanwu Empire and to prevent spies from leaving the city to transmit information, the city defense battle will be opened all day from today, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

"Please forgive me."

After Guo Tianren finished speaking, he ignored the crowd who had already started to curse, and left with a group of Gu cultivators from the Great Jin Empire.

Long Xuan was thoughtful, sent a clone to stare at this person to death, and then slowly left with the crowd.

...

Half an hour later, in an empty street, Guo Tianren suddenly turned his head and said sternly: "Don't follow me, I see you, come out."

Long Xuan, who was hiding in the dark, was stunned, but he was confident in his concealment ability. He suspected that Guo Tianren was deceiving him, so he did not jump out in time.

Soon, in a hidden corner, an old man suddenly walked out of the dark, smiled and looked at Guo Tianren and said: "You have a good eye. My perfect hiding skills can be seen through by you."

"Since you have discovered my whereabouts, I will speak frankly."

"I am Liu De, a famous array master. You should have heard of my name. There is something fishy about the damaged large teleportation array. You can hide it from others, but not from me."

Liu De stared at Guo Tianren's eyes and said confidently.

Hearing this, Guo Tianren's face showed no panic of being discovered. He clapped his hands and laughed:

"Awesome, I knew that this trick could never be hidden from everyone in the city, but the city lord wanted to leave a retreat and didn't want to really destroy the last teleportation array."

"I am not surprised that someone can see the trick of the teleportation array."

"Since you didn't point it out in public, but chose to come to me alone, you must want to make a secret deal with me!" Guo Tianren looked at him and asked with a smile.

Liu De laughed and said, "Haha! There are 28 Gu Kings from the Great Jin Empire in Xuanwu City. They have enough force to force us to be cannon fodder. So what if I point it out in public?"

"You can let me go if I point it out? If we break up, the situation will be even worse. I'll kill myself first. Once I do that, my end will never be good."

"How about I give you one billion spirit stones and let me go secretly?" Liu De looked at him with a smile and asked straight to the point.

"The life of a powerful formation master is worth a billion? I know that all of you fourth-level formation masters are extremely rich."

"I want two billion. Only two billion spiritual stones will I dare to take the risk of letting you go secretly. I will never bargain." Guo Tianren said in a loud voice, with a slightly greedy look in his eyes.

Liu De gritted his teeth, remained silent for a long time, and finally said: "Okay! Then I will give you two billion!"

"Tonight when there are fewer people, I will secretly come to the teleportation hall to find you. This time is enough for you to repair the teleportation array. I will deliver the two billion spiritual stones on the spot."

Guo Tianren nodded and said with a smile: "Okay! Let's make a deal. I will wait for you in the teleportation hall tonight."

"Remember, you must not tell anyone about this, and you must never leave with another person." Guo Tianren stared into his eyes and typed.

Seeing that Guo Tianren agreed, Liu De breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I understand the rules. The more people who know about this, the greater the changes, which is not good for me."

"Now that we've been honest, I wonder if you could clarify this for me."

"Why do you want to destroy all the teleportation arrays here? These teleportation arrays can continuously send you reinforcements. They are the key to your defense of this city. What good will it do to you to destroy all the teleportation arrays."

Guo Tianren shook his head and said with a wry smile: "There are no reinforcements. The Great Jin Empire is facing so many countries at the same time, opening up countless battlefields, and manpower is tight. It is already difficult to squeeze out reinforcements."

"It would be good if they don't ask us for reinforcements."

"The teleportation array can only send a small amount of reinforcements at most, which will be of no help to the upcoming war. It is even possible to sneak into the empire's strong men through the teleportation array."

"Instead of doing this, it is better to destroy all the teleportation arrays and do everything possible. When the defenders know that there is no way to retreat, they will definitely defend the city to the death, and their combat strength will at least double."

"Of course, there is another reason for destroying the teleportation array. You will understand this reason even if I don't say it, so there is no need for me to talk nonsense."

Guo Tianren smiled and said no more.

Hearing this, Liu De suddenly realized and praised: "It is really clever to destroy the teleportation array to stimulate the morale of the defenders."

"Then I won't say much. I'm going to prepare the spirit stones now. We'll see you in the evening."

Liu De said nothing more and finally turned and left.

Looking at his leaving figure, Guo Tianren raised the corner of his mouth, not knowing what he was thinking. Just as he was about to leave, someone suddenly jumped out from the darkness, startling him.

"I heard everything you just said. Two billion spiritual stones, count me in."

After Long Xuan appeared, he went straight to the point and explained his purpose.

At the same time, he released the aura of his Gu King, making Guo Tianren dare not act rashly.

Looking at the person who suddenly jumped out, Guo Tianren showed a solemn expression.

This person was hiding not far away, but he had never noticed it. This was enough to show that this person was extremely extraordinary. He had to be wary of this mysterious person.

"Now that you've heard our conversation, it doesn't matter if I don't agree."

"It's okay to let one go, and it's okay to let two go. One more for you is not too much, and one for you less is not too little."

"Then it's fine for you. Prepare two billion spirit stones tonight. Remember not to bring anyone with you, and don't reveal this matter to anyone."

After Guo Tianren finished speaking, he was too lazy to continue the conversation and turned around to leave.

…

Night fell, and in the anxious waiting, night came quickly.

It was already late at night and most people were asleep.

At this time, all the guardians gathered together in the teleportation hall.

The teleportation hall is an important place, so there cannot be only one guardian inside.

The most precious cross-domain teleportation array is not broken, and the broken teleportation array still contains a large amount of priceless materials. How could there not be a large number of powerful people stationed here.

"Are you really planning to let them go? The city lord has given repeated orders not to let anyone go. I'm afraid it's too risky."

"Once the city lord finds out, we won't get anything good to eat." Zhang Wenshan asked with worried eyes.

He is the second guardian of the Gu King in the teleportation hall, and he and Guo Tianren are both strong in the early stage of the Gu King.

The two restrained and supervised each other, and the rest were all Gu cultivators at the Spirit Sea stage, about ten or so, but there was not a single Gu cultivator at a lower level.

"Hmph! What? One billion spiritual stones can't seduce you?"

Guo Tianren curled his lips and said: "Don't worry, if I really want to take the risk of doing this, I will find a way to get you away. How can I let you know about this? It is even more impossible to block your mouth with a billion."

"The city lord is cruel and ruthless, and I dare not offend him."

"Besides, even if the teleportation array is not damaged much, I will not repair it at all. Even if I want to secretly let people go, there is nothing I can do."

"The formations in the teleportation hall are very powerful. As long as they dare to come, we will activate the formations to kill them on the spot."

"If the city lord asks, we can just say that if someone wants to force their way into the teleportation array, there won't be any risk in this matter." Guo Tianren had a sinister smile on his lips.

Hearing this, Zhang Wenshan was shocked, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked at him with wide eyes and said: "You had no intention of letting them go from the beginning to the end?"

"I thought you were going to take a risk for the 2 billion, but you can resist the temptation."

Guo Tianren showed a sinister look on his face and sneered: "Humph! Foolish! Kill them and they will all be mine."

"Only children can do multiple-choice questions. I want everything from them!"

Guo Tianren clenched his fists, his eyes showing an extremely greedy look.
