This was a city located in the northern part of Yunzhong.
The snow-white city walls were made of a special kind of white stone. The rows of buildings in the city were all made of stone without exception.
Under the clear blue sky, there was a city that was as white as snow. The white was distinct, and the blue was clear.
Looking at the beautiful scene in front of her, Mo Tiange couldn't help but sigh. No wonder this city was called Sky Snow City. The blue sky and white snow really lived up to its name.
"Senior, do you want a map?
A detailed map of Sky Snow City, including all cultivators' Immortal's Caves that can be rented and the market square's location. "
"Senior, are you looking for someone or traveling? Do you need a guide?"
"Senior …"
As soon as she came out of the Transporting Formation, Mo Tiange was surrounded by a group of people who introduced her to various things. There were many cultivators coming and going. Although most of them were Aura Refining cultivators, it still made her sigh. Yunzhong was indeed a holy land for cultivation. It wasn't like a cultivation city like Kunzhong City, which also had such an atmosphere.
In the end, she just bought a map of Sky Snow City and sent the others away.
Although Sky Snow City wasn't the capital of Eastern Tang, it was still a big city.
According to the map, this city had a history of more than ten thousand years. Because there was a white stone mountain nearby, the city was built with mountain stones. The city was like snow, so it was called Sky Snow City.
It was said that the white stones of Sky Snow City were extremely hard, like jade, and had the function of gathering spiritual aura. Although they were far inferior to spirit stones, they were better than nothing.
Therefore, there were many middle and low-level cultivators living in this city. They called the white stones white spirit stones and jokingly called the houses they lived in spirit stone houses, which was very interesting.
At the same time, Mo Tiange also discovered that Sky Snow City itself had a medium-sized spirit vein. Coupled with the function of white spirit stones, although it wasn't enough to build a sect, it was a blessed land for many individual cultivators. It was no wonder that so many individual cultivators gathered in this city.
After leaving Tianyan Sect's station, Mo Tiange thought for a moment and decided to find a place to stay first.
Among the five great sects of Eastern Tang, Wuxing Valley was remote, Pufa School was in the west, Jingxu School was near the capital, Danxia Sect was in the north, and Jiuyan Sect happened to be not far from Sky Snow City.
Mo Tiange's primary purpose in coming to Yunzhong was to travel. Her secondary purpose was to go to Danxia Sect to investigate and find traces of Mo Yaoqing as well as the complete Art of Sunu.
However, Danxia Sect was, after all, a great cultivation group in Yunzhong, and Mo Yaoqing was a traitor, so it was unwise to ask her directly. They could only slowly get in touch with her and slowly figure things out.
Therefore, under the current circumstances, it would be better for him to stay in Sky Snow City first, get in touch with the people of the Jiuyan Sect, and find out more about the situation of the Dawning Pill Sect.
Sky Snow City was originally built on a mountain, and the entire city was built on White Stone Mountain. Whether it was the city walls or the houses, they were all made from local materials. Thus, the direction of the city was also uneven.
Mo Tiange followed the map and headed towards the mountainside.
According to the map, the majority of Sky Snow City was the property of the Ling Clan, the largest cultivation clan in the Jiuyan Sect. The Ling Clan was located at the top of White Rock Mountain, occupying the area with the densest Spirit Qi.
At the bottom of the mountain, there were many cave dwellings. These cave dwellings were of different sizes and had different Spiritual Qi. They were all for rent. Rogue cultivators who came to Sky Snow City would rent cave dwellings from the Ling Clan regardless of whether they were staying for a long time or for a short period of time.
When she reached the mountainside, Mo Tiange looked at the map then turned left according to the directions on the map.
This White Rock Mountain was obviously a mine. There was very little vegetation here; there was only a small amount of yellow soil and some drought-resistant shrubs.
Mo Tiange thought that the cultivators of Sky Snow City should be lacking in spiritual plants, right?
She wondered what they used to concoct medicinal pills.
As she was walking, she suddenly felt a spiritual aura fluctuation. Mo Tiange's gaze shifted, but she continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.
When she passed by a shrub, spiritual aura suddenly fluctuated above her head. A golden net came down from above, covering her completely in an instant.
"Hahahaha!"
Seeing that she couldn't move and was covered by the golden net, two cultivators came out from behind the mountain rock. One of them laughed. "Big Brother, I told you no one could escape our inescapable net. What do you think?"
These two cultivators were both in the Foundation Building realm. One of them had a messy beard on his face, so his appearance couldn't be seen clearly. The other had shifty eyes and looked very wretched — he was the one who spoke.
The former was in the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm while the latter was in the early stage.
The big man with the messy beard was very cautious. He frowned and reminded them, "Don't be arrogant. This person's cultivation level is higher than ours."
"No matter how high his cultivation level is, he still can't break the inescapable net, right?"
The wretched man stared at Mo Tiange trapped in the golden net with a smile. He licked his lips and said, "Big Brother, this woman looks pretty good. Look …"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Before he could finish, the big man with the beard reprimanded him. "We stopped this robbery because we had no other choice. It's fine if we get the money. Have you forgotten the commandments?"
"Commandments?"
The wretched man snorted disdainfully. He was very dissatisfied. "Big Brother, have you forgotten that we've been driven out?
We're individual cultivators now. What does the commandments have to do with us? "
The big man with the beard's eyes flashed. He then said with a heavy voice, "Whether we've been driven out or not, we still want to continue cultivating, so we can't forget the commandments!
Aren't you afraid of the Inner Demon of core-formation? "
Upon hearing this, the wretched man was finally persuaded. He said reluctantly, "Okay, okay, I understand!"
Right after he finished speaking, he saw Mo Tiange struggling in the golden net. He squinted his eyes and teased her with a smile, "Miss, don't struggle anymore. This is an inescapable net, a magic weapon!
Although your cultivation level is higher than ours, once you're trapped in the inescapable net, you'll still be trampled on! "
Mo Tiange stopped struggling and stared coldly at the two men. "What do you want?"
"What do I want?"
The wretched man stroked his mustache and stared at Mo Tiange's face with a covetous gaze. "Hand over your Qiankun Bag!"
Mo Tiange didn't move. She just stared at them.
Seeing that she didn't move for a long time, the wretched man became impatient. He pulled the knot in the net and said, "Hurry up, or I'll also rob you!"
"Junior Martial Brother!" Right after he finished speaking, the big man with the beard shouted and stared at him with raised eyebrows.
Under his gaze, the wretched man became weak and muttered, "Okay, okay, I understand."
The big man with the beard looked at Mo Tiange and said gently, "Fellow Daoist, Junior Martial Brother and I have no choice but to do this shady business. I can guarantee we won't hurt you."
Mo Tiange stared at the big man with the beard and sneered. "What's the difference between wanting my Qiankun Bag and wanting my life?
For cultivators, don't tell me you don't know the importance of a Qiankun Bag? "
The big man with the beard was speechless. After a while, he finally said, "Then you just need to hand over some spirit stones."
Mo Tiange stared at him and couldn't help but narrow her eyes. "I only want spirit stones. Aren't you afraid I'll kill you after you let me go?"
The big man with the beard shook his head. "This … we have our own ways."
"Big Brother, why are you talking to her so much?
In any case, we've already done it. "
The wretched man couldn't wait to interrupt their conversation. He stared at Mo Tiange with an ominous glint in his eyes. "My big brother is easy to talk to, but I'm not. If you don't hand over the spirit stones, I'll give you a bit of suffering!" As he spoke, he pulled the knot in his hand.
Mo Tiange wrinkled her brows. She felt pain in the places covered by the golden net.
She was a bit surprised. Martial Uncle Zhenyang said most cultivators in Yunzhong had magic weapons that could control spiritual aura. She didn't expect that these two Foundation Building cultivators would also have magic weapons that could control spiritual aura.
"Junior Martial Brother!" the big man with the beard shouted again.
"Big Brother!"
The wretched man said unhappily, "Since we've already decided to do this, why should we be afraid of the slightest thing?
What's the point of doing this? "
The big man with the beard's eyes dimmed. He lowered his head and said nothing.
Mo Tiange's gaze shifted to the two of them and she asked, "Why did you two set up an ambush here?
Isn't this the way to Ling Clan?
Presumably, there should be a lot of people here. Aren't you afraid of being bumped into by others? "This was exactly what puzzled her. She'd been trapped here for so long, but no one had come.
"Ling Clan?
Haha! "
Upon hearing her question, the wretched man laughed triumphantly and said, "There are so many idiots in this world. Who said this road leads to Ling Clan?"
Mo Tiange wrinkled her brows and said slowly, "That map is fake?"
"You're still too stupid!" The wretched man smiled until his eyes narrowed. "This idea isn't bad, right?
A fat sheep that just arrived in Sky Snow City — a lone cultivator — as long as we tamper with the map a bit, we'll naturally come here. "
Mo Tiange's expression darkened. "You …"
"Quickly hand over your Qiankun Bag!" The wretched man lost his patience and shouted, "If you don't hand it over, I won't be polite!"
"Be polite?
I'd like to see how you're going to be rude! "
Under their gazes, Mo Tiange waved her sleeves. The spiritual aura in her body surged, and the momentum of a Core Formation cultivator instantly spread. The golden net covering her body fluttered without any wind.
The big man with the beard was shocked and shouted, "You're in the Core Formation realm …"
The wretched man was stunned for a moment, then he hastily made a hand seal, trying to retract the golden net.
Mo Tiange snorted coldly and gently raised her hand. The wretched man immediately felt a strong pressure coming from the other side. His face instantly turned red and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Senior!"
The big man with the beard shouted. He didn't dare to step forward and took out his Qiankun Bag. "Senior, please let go of my junior martial brother. I'm willing to offer all my belongings to you!"
Mo Tiange cast a glance at the big man. He was actually smart — he knew he couldn't resist and immediately begged for mercy.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Mo Tiange only glanced at him once then withdrew her gaze. Under the surging spiritual aura, her sleeves fluttered even though there was no wind. She opened and closed her right palm. The wretched man let out an "Ah!" and could only watch helplessly as the golden net in his hand was taken by her.
The wretched man was so shocked that he couldn't react. Mo Tiange was angry at his frivolous words just now, so she didn't show any mercy. She gathered spiritual aura in her hand and struck him!
"Ah!"
With a blood-curdling scream, the wretched man was sent flying and crashed into a rock. His head tilted to one side and his whole body softly fell to the ground. He was no longer breathing.
"Junior Martial Brother!" The big man with the beard widened his eyes and threw himself at him. He was stunned when he realized he was no longer breathing.
After a while, he suddenly turned to look at Mo Tiange. "You …"
"What? Do you want revenge?" Mo Tiange raised her eyebrows and asked when she saw the fierce glint in the man's eyes.
The man was stunned at first, but soon after, his expression turned sorrowful and his whole body softened.
A Core Formation cultivator? He was merely in the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm. How could he take revenge?
Mo Tiange couldn't help but feel strange when she saw the man's appearance.
Based on their conversation just now, these two people didn't have the same temperament. Why did they block the road and rob people together?
This whole thing was strange. What was going on?
