Dark Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 89 Entering the City

A wide and straight highway appeared before Zhang Qing's eyes.

This road leading to the distance is paved entirely with stone slabs, making it not only very smooth but also wide enough for four or five carriages to travel side by side.

Zhang Qing knew that there were as many as eighteen similar imperial roads within the Luoshan area.

Each main road stretches for hundreds of miles, connecting Luoshan Immortal City, the outer city, and hundreds of smaller paths leading to different camps and settlements.

Without modern technology, such a massive project relied on the power of the immortals!

Along both sides of the road, there are countless farmlands crisscrossed by paths, dotted with villages and manors, where one can see farmers wearing straw hats working diligently in the fields.

The wind ripples through the rice paddies, bringing with it the fragrance of soil and grass.

Zhang Qing couldn't help but take a deep breath, sensing the different atmosphere here compared to the camp.

Because it is far from the black fog area and free from the influence of evil spirits, the sky over this vast plain is bright, and sunlight can be seen from time to time. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the surrounding space is also more abundant.

If given a choice, Zhang Qing would prefer to live in such an environment.

Unfortunately, all the fields he could see belonged to powerful sects, aristocratic families, and local gentry, and the farmers who worked in the fields were tenants for generations, with no personal freedom whatsoever.

Suppressing the slight ripple in his heart, Zhang Qing unleashed his flying technique and soared forward along the highway.

As he continued his journey, more and more pedestrians, as well as various modes of transportation such as horse-drawn carriages, oxcarts, and donkey carts, appeared on the road.

Of course, there are also cultivators like Zhang Qing who rely on their physical strength and magical power to travel.

You can also find tea stalls by the roadside, where you can sit down and buy a bowl of cool tea to rest when you are tired from traveling.

Zhang Qing was single-minded and sped for over a hundred miles before he could see the massive city in the distance!

Although Los Angeles is an "isolated island" surrounded by black mist, the entire Los Angeles area is very large, similar to the Greater Los Angeles region of the United States in Zhang Qing's previous life, stretching for hundreds of miles.

The core of Luoshan City is Luoshan Mountain, which is located in the center, while the outer city has been continuously built and expanded around Luoshan Mountain, and has long since formed a huge scale.

Zhang Qing's predecessor originally lived in the western part of Luoshan's outer city. Although it was a small household, the living environment and conditions were much better than those in the camps and farms.

But fate is unpredictable.

Because his parents died unexpectedly, the previous incarnation of the orphan was eaten by his clan and left without any descendants, forcing him to wander to Xiaoshiji.

Now, upon seeing the outer city of Luoshan again, even though his body has been replaced, Zhang Qing still recalls a large number of memories from his previous life.

It was as if the remnant soul of the previous body had not completely disappeared.

Zhang Qing secretly vowed, "Don't worry, once I have enough power, I will definitely get justice for you!"

Having taken over the body of the previous inhabitant, he naturally inherited this karma, and it is both morally and logically his responsibility and obligation to avenge him.

Putting everything else aside, Zhang Qing will definitely take back that valuable little house in the outer city in the future.

We absolutely cannot let those heartless clansmen get away with this!

Strangely enough, as soon as he made the vow, he felt a sense of relief, as if a layer of gloom had been dispelled.

Zhang Qing gazed into the distance, his footsteps never ceasing as he continued to fly.

As the saying goes, "looking at a mountain makes a horse run itself to death," even though the outer city of Luoshan is already in sight, there is still a long way to go to reach the destination.

Actually, there are some horse-drawn carriages available along the road; you can get on one for just a few coins.

Unfortunately, the speed is too slow, so it's better to travel on my own.

While I'm at it, I'll also learn the "Land Leap Technique" to increase my experience with this spell!

The closer he got to the outer city of Luoshan, the more pedestrians and vehicles he encountered on the road, making it a bustling and lively scene.

Along the way, you can also see many large farms and some villages and towns.

Zhang Qing knew that these manors and towns also had owners.

As noon approached, after a long journey, he finally arrived at the outer city of Luoshan.

A magnificent city wall blocked Zhang Qing's path.

The city wall is twenty or thirty feet high, and it is built of large, dark blue rocks, giving it an extremely solid and heavy feel.

This is the epitome of impregnable fortress!

Moreover, the surface of the city wall is densely covered with countless runes.

Standing below, Zhang Qing felt incredibly small!

Just as he was looking up at the city wall, the clouds and mist in the sky suddenly parted, and the scorching sun shone on the earth.

The sunlight also fell on Zhang Qing's body and face.

At this moment, Zhang Qing felt as if every pore on his body was opening up, and he felt as if he were bathing in a hot spring, feeling warm and extremely comfortable.

He had completely forgotten how long it had been since he had sunbathed!

Perhaps because so much time had passed, he unconsciously and greedily absorbed the energy contained in the sunlight.

The body's Qi and blood become more active.

that's nice!

"Look, another country bumpkin who's never seen the world!"

"hehe!"

The gossip from those around him brought Zhang Qing back to his senses.

He knew he had lost his composure and was being treated like a country bumpkin visiting the city for the first time.

But so what?

After calming himself down, Zhang Qing walked towards the city gate.

The outer city of Luoshan has a total of eighteen gates, which correspond to eighteen roads.

The outer city of Luoshan is further divided into four districts: east, south, west, and north.

The city gate in front of him belonged to the western part of the city.

After paying a small talisman coin as an entrance fee, Zhang Qing passed through the grand gate and entered the outer city of Luoshan.

To be honest, despite possessing all of his predecessor's memories, Zhang Qing still felt like a country boy visiting a big city for the first time, and everything he saw was very new and novel.

I was even shocked!

In fact, although his predecessor had lived in the outer city for more than ten years, he was an honest, dutiful, and somewhat timid boy who always listened to his parents' teachings and spent most of his time at home practicing martial arts and spells, rarely going out to play.

Therefore, the predecessor of this vast city was like a frog at the bottom of a well, only seeing a small circle of the world.

What Zhang Qing sees now is a bustling and prosperous scene that is a hundred or even a thousand times more vibrant than the camp.

The city streets are surprisingly wide, with buildings of all shapes and sizes standing side by side, and pedestrians coming and going shoulder to shoulder.

Shops lined both sides of the road, with countless signs and banners of all shapes and sizes. Shouts and hawkers' cries rose and fell, and the bustling atmosphere reached the sky.

Zhang Qing, caught up in the crowd, almost lost his way.

He finally managed to squeeze out of the crowd and slip into a nearby teahouse.

Only then could I catch my breath.

It felt like surviving a disaster.

There are just too many people.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Qing simply found an empty seat, sat down, and asked the waiter for a pot of tea and two plates of food.

First, soothe your rumbling stomach, and then proceed with the next step.
