Since he was already here, he might as well take things as they came.
"In that case, I'll bring you to the outer city and arrange for you to be with the outer city disciples."
After one of the golden dragons was separated, the others dispersed. They were all ninth tier Nirvana Tribulation warriors and were about to face the Samsara Tribulation. To them, it might be the greatest tribulation in their lives.
Long Chen followed the golden dragon elder and quickly headed for the outer city. The golden dragon elder's goal of letting Long Chen travel by himself was actually to let Long Chen take a good look at the inner city of Martial God Ancient City and how magnificent it was.
Long Chen was running in this endless mountain forest, and he discovered that it was indeed as he had guessed. Surrounded by this vast Nirvana spiritual energy, all the plants had grown into Immortal Essences, and growing here for a year was almost equivalent to growing outside for tens of years.
The medicinal efficacy of the immortal essences mixed with the Nirvana Spiritual Energy and produced great benefits.
"These are all small things. The descendants of the Martial God don't care about them at all. In the depths of the inner city, there is a large plot of immortal essences planted. That is the real treasure of Martial God Ancient City. Ancient immortal essences can be seen everywhere. It is said that there are Primordial Immortal Essences with more than 100 immortal patterns."
The golden dragon elder chuckled.
In his opinion, Long Chen was like a lucky child who walked out of the deep mountains and wild forests. Telling him all this could make him yearn and honor for Martial God Ancient City and make him follow Martial God Ancient City unswervingly.
However, Long Chen did not think much of these things.
No matter how terrifying Martial God Ancient City was, it could not compare to the freedom in his heart. He had been forcefully brought in. Just this point alone made Martial God Ancient City unable to gain his favor.
When the golden dragon elder spoke, he smiled and nodded.
This was a winding white jade path. In the depths of the forest along the road, there would occasionally be buildings formed by Dao artifacts, just like the Five Elements Clear Sky Pagoda. However, they were very common in the inner city of the War God, and some of them looked like palaces. It seemed like the Su Family lived in these places.
"The inner city is very big, and there are close to ten thousand people living there. They are all scattered, and there are many places that are forbidden for clan members to enter. With my current authority, I can only move about half of the inner city. There are many ancient ruins, forbidden areas for clan members, and immortal spirit plantations that I can't get close to. If you have outstanding achievements in the future, perhaps you can obtain such authority. You can enter any forbidden area, and you will benefit for the rest of your life."
The Golden Dragon Elder chuckled as he stroked his long beard.
He suddenly pointed to the front and said, "There is a small forbidden area in front of us. We can't get within three thousand meters of the Samsara soldiers."
"What is a Samsara Soldier?" Long Chen asked curiously.
The Golden Dragon Elder smiled and said, "We are getting close. You should be able to see it."
As he spoke, Long Chen followed the Golden Dragon Elder's instructions and looked to the north. In the depths of the undulating forest, a large number of runes suddenly appeared. A golden pillar of light soared into the sky, forming a dense circular array formation in the sky. In the middle of the golden array formation, there was a strange statue that was a hundred meters tall. Although it could not be seen clearly, it made Long Chen feel suffocated.
"This is the Samsara Soldier," the Golden Dragon Elder said proudly.
Long Chen could not shift his gaze away. He was deeply immersed in it. This was clearly just a statue, but it made Long Chen feel as if he was facing Su Zhen. Or rather, this feeling was much stronger than when he was facing Su Zhen. "In the inner city of Martial God Ancient City, three thousand Samsara soldiers form the Martial God Reincarnation Array to guard Martial God Ancient City.
"In the inner city of the Ancient God of Martial Arts, three thousand Samsara Soldiers form the Martial God Reincarnation Formation to guard the Ancient God of Martial Arts. Ordinary people can't break in, not to mention the Demon Tribe, the Sea Tribe, the Spirit Tribe, and the Sorcerer Tribe. The three thousand Samsara Soldiers have been left since ancient times. It's said that they are the three thousand Samsara Realm warriors under the eighteen Martial Gods. They once followed the Martial Gods to conquer the world and finally died with the Martial Gods, leaving behind the Golden Body Dharma Laksana in the Ancient God of Martial Arts. I heard that in the depths of the inner city of the Ancient God of Martial Arts, there is a Martial God Spiritual Stele left by the eighteen Martial Gods.
The three thousand Samsara soldiers were figures from the Immemorial Age.
Only deities could live forever. Even warriors in the Samsara Tribulation Realm could be killed by the Samsara Tribulation. What was going on with the golden body left behind?
Long Chen suddenly thought of something. Since deities were said to live forever, where did the deities that appeared after the disappearance of the Divine Dragons in the Immemorial Age, such as the eighteen Martial Gods, go?
Weren't deities all immortal?
Moreover, most of the millions of Dragons were immortal, so where did they go?
This was an ancient mystery that no one could solve. Presumably, even the descendants of deities didn't know where their ancestors went.
The three thousand Samsara soldiers, the Martial God Spirit Stele.
Long Chen quickly forgot about the Samsara soldiers as he hurried on his way. Before he left the inner city, he saw it again.
"I don't know when you can return to the inner city after leaving this time. I thought the Lord would let you stay in the inner city." The eighteen Divine Dragons thought highly of Long Chen.
"Thank you, Senior."
However, Long Chen wasn't the least bit interested in the inner city.
After leaving the inner city, the concentration of Nirvana Spirit Energy was indeed reduced by ten times. There were fewer places on the ground that could erupt Nirvana Spirit Energy.
Although the Nirvana Spirit Energy was reduced, immortal essences with one or two immortal patterns were still very common. The inner city was a forest, but the outer city stretched for countless miles. It was more like a wilderness, a wilderness with ten times the Nirvana Spirit Energy, immortal essences, and even wild beasts. "This is the 11th District. You will live here in the future.
"This is the 11th district. You will live here from now on. I will now take you to one of the Martial God Squads. Each Martial God Squad has about 1,000 people and is led by three Martial God Guards. The entire 11th district has more than 100,000 people, which is controlled by a branch family of the Su Family. Remember, when you are in the outer city, you better not offend the branch family. After all, in the eyes of the Su Family, outsiders like us are like subordinates and slaves. Only obedient people can survive. Do you understand what I mean?"
The Golden Dragon old man exhorted again and again.
"Got it." Long Chen looked at the vast wilderness and nodded with a smile.
The wilderness in front of him was a great world. It was vast and boundless. The only pity was that there were too many restrictions.
After speaking, the Golden Dragon old man led Long Chen to patrol the sky above the 11th District. The Martial God teams were hidden in the wilderness to cultivate, fight, and carry out missions. It wasn't easy to find them.
After traveling for some time, the Golden Dragon old man finally found one of the strongholds. There was a thousand-man Martial God team there. Most of them were cultivating. When they saw a thousand-meter-long Golden Divine Dragon pass by, three cultivators in Golden Battle Armor rushed up. There were two men and one woman, and they welcomed the Golden Dragon old man.
"Greetings, Dragon Soul General."
Indeed, the Golden Dragon was also a member of the Dragon Soul General.
The Golden Dragon brought everyone down. At this moment, Long Chen let Lingxi out. After all, from today onwards, he and Lingxi were considered to be part of the outer city disciples.
Long Chen was young and mature with an extraordinary temperament. Lingxi's beauty attracted the attention of the three Martial God Guards very quickly. However, the two of them were brought by the Dragon Soul General. They knew what to do. Usually, the Dragon Soul General wasn't a real member of the Su family. They had relatives outside, so it was normal for them to bring them to the Martial God Ancient City.
It was a great thing to take care of the Dragon Soul General's relatives.
After the two men and one woman bowed to the Golden Dragon, the Golden Dragon went straight to the point. He pointed at Long Chen and Lingxi and said, "This young man is Long Chen and this woman is Lingxi. From today onwards, they will be part of the Martial God team led by the three of you. I am the Dragon Soul General, Ao Chong. From today onwards, I hope the three of you can take care of them."
Although he didn't say it clearly, it was obvious that they were Ao Chong's relatives. The three Martial God Guards said excitedly, "Dragon Soul General, the three of us will not disappoint you. We will take good care of them and give them the best resources."
They could clearly tell that Long Chen and Ling Tian's Nirvana Energy wasn't that great. They seemed to have passed through the Ninth Heaven Lightning Beast and hadn't reached the standard of the sixth level of the Nirvana Tribulation Realm in the War God Ancient City. However, because they were both related, it wasn't a problem to take care of them.
Long Chen was also sizing up the Martial God Guards. These three guys looked much stronger than the Wolf Fang Army's commander. They were probably at the late stage of the Seventh Heaven Nirvana Realm. The Wolf Fang Army's commander was at the early stage of the Seventh Heaven Nirvana Realm.
If it was a one on one fight, Long Chen might not be their match. Even the Wolf Fang Army's commander had to expend a lot of effort to fight. Moreover, the Holy Infant had already been killed.
"The Martial God Guards are the elites of the outer city. Only two or three Martial God Guards can be produced out of a thousand outer city disciples. They must be at least at the late stage of the Seventh Heaven Nirvana Realm. Later on, the three of them will be your commanders. You must listen to their orders. Understand?" Ao Chong warned Long Chen.
Long Chen nodded quietly.
After giving some instructions, Ao Chong returned to the Martial God Ancient City.
After Ao Chong left, the three Martial God Guards hurriedly introduced themselves.
A burly man with a dark face said, "I am Tyrant Bear, I am the first commander."
The woman with an ordinary appearance but a very attractive figure said, "I am Jiang Yan. You can call me Sister Jiang Yan in the future. I am the second commander."
The last youth with fair skin said, "I am Li Chongfeng. However, other than these two, the other brothers and sisters like to call me third brother. We will take care of each other in the future."
Perhaps it was because of Ao Chong, the three of them were very polite.
