National Expedition: Save the Immortal Cultivation World

Chapter 224 The position of city lord

The former city lord's palace was really divided into two halves.

A majestic main entrance on the east side was opened.

Standing here, Wei Cheng was filled with emotions.

But after thinking about it, he didn't walk into it.

But for Liang, Yang Xiushan, Xue Xindong, Fan Yunlei, Hu Chunlai and others, they said sincerely: "In the next three months, practice hard, strive to improve your realm, and at the same time find a path that is most suitable for yourself."

"Now this is the eighth level. When it reaches the ninth level, the realism will continue to increase significantly, and the difficulty will increase at least three times. This is a very cruel thing."

"Especially the increase in realism, don't take it seriously. Our practice progress in the trial level is actually different from the real world. So the higher the realism, the slower our practice will be. And the enemy will Become stronger."

"Just like our planet, after graduating from college, where is the opportunity for us to fight monsters, upgrade, and push all the way to the big boss? There are only a handful of people who can do this."

"Always maintain a heart of awe, don't get too carried away, and think about your shortcomings. Only in this way can you save your life when a crisis comes."

"That's it, you can go and do your own business. You don't have to follow me."

After saying that, Wei Cheng turned around and left. He didn't take a step into the city lord's mansion reserved for him, and he didn't even have the interest to take a second look.

Because, no need.

After bypassing the east gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Wei Cheng came to the wide square. Now it was deserted and very quiet. No one came here to test his global ranking.

Wei Cheng raised his head here, glanced at the main entrance of the real city lord's palace, and then strode forward.

At this moment, there was inexplicably a lot more pressure on his body, but for him at this moment, just a little breeze blowing on his face could not hold him back at all.

Just like this, he walked three hundred steps in one breath, and was still two hundred steps away from the main entrance of the city lord's mansion.

Wei Cheng still didn't show any embarrassed expression.

I still remember that in the sixth level, he only took less than a hundred steps and already tried his best. At that time, his global comprehensive strength ranking was 219.

But now, he has taken 300 steps and his global ranking has reached 54.

But this ranking may not actually be correct, because there are still people who have never walked through the ranking square, and there are still people who are practicing in retreat. In short, this ranking fluctuates, and the accuracy cannot be guaranteed.

Wei Cheng stopped here for a moment and then continued forward a hundred steps. At this moment, his global ranking reached 4th place.

If you go any further, it will be very difficult.

"You can walk another hundred steps, and that's the limit."

"However, my first set of mountains must be taken into account, and the second set of mountains is currently in a state of being abandoned."

As soon as he thought of this, Wei Cheng closed his eyes. There was no reference anymore.

A few seconds later, he opened his eyes and reappeared at the edge of the square. He bypassed the main door and walked to the small door on the side. However, before he could knock, the door opened automatically.

The old city lord, who was gray-haired, aged, and looked quite sluggish in energy, came out, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

Wei Cheng silently bowed his hands in salute, while the old city lord didn't say anything. He just stood here, overlooking the empty square below. After a long time, he sighed, "Tell me, what do you need me to do? Even if you ask me to abdicate immediately and make way for someone worthy of my honour." , I have absolutely nothing to say."

"Senior's words are serious. I'm just curious. Now that the situation inside and outside Cangwu City is very good, why does senior always look like he wants to hang up his seal and leave? Could it be that there is a catastrophe coming to Cangwu City next?"

Wei Cheng handed over again. He came today and had plenty of time to play charades with the old man.

But the old city lord felt tired even if he said a word.

"No need to beat around the bush, let me tell you straight. This round, there are seventy-six cities and two hundred and eighty districts among you on earth that have received passing evaluations, but only three of them can kill Chi Yao like you. District, the rest are just continuing to seal Chi Yao."

"Do you think this data is good? In fact, it is not good. Based on the results of the past ten trial worlds, you can rank third from the bottom."

"So, you should be able to understand my desire to get into the coffin as soon as possible and die, regardless of the flood that will follow."

"It's useless to say more. I am the city lord. Do you want it or not?"

"So what if I don't want to?"

"It won't matter, but if you don't want it, someone else will come and ask for it. You will meet in the next level."

The old city lord sneered. He was really tired. He no longer wanted to play this kind of game where the results could be seen at a glance.

"Whoever dares to do that, I will kill him immediately."

Wei Cheng said it calmly, killing someone is like trampling on an ant.

"People's hearts are unpredictable, and you can't decide everything."

The old city lord said, with a defeated expression and gloomy eyes, one more look at him would make him feel bad.

As expected, Wei Cheng no longer persisted.

"I want to rebuild Floating Cloud City, what advice and support can you give me?"

"You don't want the complete Cangwu City, but you insist on rebuilding a city. Do you think that killing Chi Yao will qualify you to be willful?"

The old city lord said sarcastically.

Wei Cheng remained silent.

"No advice, no support, just Cangwu City, love it or not!"

After saying that, the old city lord threw over a jade talisman and walked away.

He just left like that.

The moment Wei Cheng took the jade talisman, he felt something was wrong. He looked up and saw that the old city lord had jumped up and turned into a sword light and floated away.

No way!

Wei Cheng was completely frozen in place, could he still be like this?

What a child's play, this is a city!

After being stunned for a few seconds, Wei Cheng gave a wry smile and looked at the jade talisman in his hand. There were a few faint cloud patterns outlined on it, and there was just the right amount of azure floating around. It looked very exquisite, like a tranquil landscape painting. , if you are not careful, you will fall into it. I don’t know how many years have passed?

But among them is the jade talisman of the only protective formation left in Cangwu City.

Wei Cheng tried to open it, but the formation jade talisman was indifferent. He was forced to take out a water spirit stone and place it on the formation jade talisman.

The next second, a bright spiritual light lit up on the spiritual stone, and it was quickly injected into the array of jade talismans. In just three seconds, the water spirit stone was reduced to ashes, and there was a misty fire-colored cloud on the array of spiritual stones?

What's the meaning?

The sky represents water, and the clouds represent fire?

Good guy, it also has a charging mode.

Wei Cheng could only take out another fire spirit stone and place it on the array jade talisman. As the spiritual light lit up, three seconds later, the spirit stone turned to gray, and the array jade talisman added a touch of azure.

Well, that's the end of being a smartass.

With a dark face, Wei Cheng took out another piece of earth spirit stone and put it on it. The result was exactly the same.

Back and forth, he took out ten spirit stones in one go, and the array of jade talismans finally changed.

The various colors that appeared on it continued to swirl and evolve, and finally turned into three sets of control sigils.

The first set of control sigils is used to activate the protective formation.

The second set of control sigils is used to adjust the defense value of the protective formation.

The third set of control sigils is used to close the protective formation.

It sounds simple, but it's so mysterious.

Any electrical engineer on earth can do it.

Wei Cheng thought like this and subconsciously drew the opening talisman in his hand.

The next second the Panyu Talisman trembled slightly, but there was no subsequent change. He was still wondering, is this it?

Suddenly I felt something was wrong. When I raised my head, holy shit, the whole world was gathering towards him.

It was completely impossible to form this perception. The sky and the earth were rapidly compressed, pressing towards him.

Wei Cheng almost ran away with his head in his arms.

He didn't wake up until the 'sky' returned to the jade talisman in his hand.

The protective formation was not activated, but recalled, because there was a lack of functioning spiritual stones.

That's right, at this moment, the formation disk jade talisman has turned into a creation with a diameter of one meter, an oval shape, and a slight bulge like a tortoise shell. It is divided into nine pieces, all of which are carved with complex and mysterious runes.

This is the body of Cangwu City's protective formation, and it can also be used as a defensive weapon for personal use.

If you can afford the spiritual stones.

Wei Cheng counted the grooves on these nine pieces of creation, no more, no less, a total of ninety-nine and eighty-one.

Ma De, Wei Cheng suddenly understood.

Why did the old city lord couldn't wait to give up his position as city lord? Because there really was no spiritual stone left, and he was completely driven away by poverty.

Wei Cheng also wants to leave, but he doesn't have many spiritual stones.

Even though he made a lot of money during this period, doesn't it need to improve the overall strength of the team?

Plus this big reward.

He felt that he had seen him sitting on the throne of the city lord, crying and the hero short of breath.

This doesn't work, we have to think of a way quickly to return this array of jade talismans. There is no formal handover, no signing of documents, you say I am the city lord and I am the city lord?

The next moment, he turned around and pushed open the side door of the City Lord's Mansion. He didn't believe it. The old man didn't have a concubine, daughter, granddaughter or anything like that?

But as soon as he walked into the side door, he saw a familiar stone tablet slowly emerging from the front.

He immediately felt something was wrong, and when he took a closer look, it turned out that I was really rough.

That old man is really a cruel man!
