Chapter 573: West Sea City
Chapter 573: West Sea City
West Sea City, it bordered the Western Sea and was built above the Crystal Bay.
West Sea City was distributed like a crescent moon, while facing a giant bay. The water was clear without any impurities and the colourful coral shined in the sunlight, splendidly reflecting back the sun’s rays. Each grain of sand was transparent, just like the world’s purest crystals.
West Sea City was over five hundred meters tall with all kinds of buildings in it. There was the Crystal Palace, the Sea Conch House, and the Turtle Nest, all having strange shapes and having everything is should have, giving it a strong foreign taste to people. This was scenery that could not be seen among the land races of the continent.
Although West Sea City was a remote place, this place wasn’t actually closed off because West Sea City had opened many routes, allowing several coastline merchants to directly enter West Sea City from the ocean. Therefore, West Sea City didn’t just have the voices of the various sea races, there were also merchants from all over the continent doing business here.
Of course, these trade routes didn’t provide direct access into the Crystal Bay. In an area around two hundred miles away from the Crystal Bay, there was a giant harbour specifically providing a place for foreign fleets to dock. Naturally there was a small town of several hundred thousand people that formed after a long time, they were all foreign merchants that had been here for a long time.
Outside the town, in the fishmen harbour, there were countless soldiers in dark gold armour, standing there like iron spikes in the ground. They didn’t care about anything that happened in the outside world, they just kept looking into the distance.
With a splash of water, a giant iron ship suddenly appeared!
That giant metallic ship was filled with unspeakable might and pressure. Even if it was slowly moving over, it gave a strong oppressive feeling to people seeing it. This made all the surrounding people transporting their cargo reveal looks of shock.
The giant metallic ship used a flood dragon skeleton as a base and there was a flood dragon head hanging right on the bow. The round eyes were filled with killing intent and wildness, with the pressure it gave off causing the surrounding water to be void of any waves. Even looking at it from a distance, it gave people a deep oppressive feeling.
“The Big Dry Empire!”
“It’s the ship of the Big Dry Empire!”
The giant metallic ship was still several thousand meters away, but twenty officers with long golden robes flew out. They passed over the thousands of meters as three hammers fell onto the bow. Each person didn’t hide their aura at all, they were all experts in the 9th True Spirit Layer!
If this kind of person was placed in the Forest of Chaos, even if they weren’t a City Lord, they would be second in command. However, on this giant metallic ship, they were just guards to open the path.
The Big Dry Empire was incomparably far.
From the terrible gashes on the giant metallic ship, they had experienced quite a few dangerous battles along the way. For an acknowledged human empire, they had at least several billion people in their country. They had to have at least two Heaven Domain Experts and True Spirit Experts like hairs on an oxen.
A truly powerful country!
Even if the entire Forest of Chaos was added together, it would be hard to match the Big Dry Empire. However, since the current Forest of Chaos was split apart, the Big Dry Empire didn’t place them in their eyes at all!
The giant metallic ship slowly arrived in the harbour and two old men who looked like servants came out. Although they had simple clothes and looked humble, their eyes were incomparably cold and gave off an aura that shocked people to their hearts.
If the servants were like this.
What would the master be like?
The two servants and the twenty high level True Spirit guards opened the way, as large amounts of beasts appeared from the deck. There were four-five hundred cavalry in formation, with several dragons coming out pulling a carriage, heading towards West Sea City.
“The Big Dry Empire’s Sage Yuwen Xi!”
Someone from the harbour recognized this person and they all kneeled down on the ground. They had humble expressions and didn’t dare look forward, but there was one exception. That person was wearing a grey robe and was wrapped up in a straw cloak. Although he looked very normal, his aura was indeed quite outstanding. The skin that was revealed seemed like it was crafted from jade and there was a cute little white fox on his shoulder.
The young man looked at the dragon carriage heading off and said in a dissatisfied voice, “Damn, what fellow is here? Can’t you be a bit more low key as a person!”
“Be quiet!” An old man quickly stood up to glare at him as he said, “Senior Yuwen Xi is the Big Dry Empire’s conferred Sage. Daring to make impertinent remarks, are you not afraid of death?”
Sage?
Was a Sage that amazing?
Father was conferred as a Great Sage before!
Chu Tian revealed an uncaring look. The Sage in this era might not even be comparable to a Great Scholar from tens of thousands of years in the future, how could Chu Tian place him in his eyes?
Yuwen Xi gradually went further away and the harbour returned to normal.
The leader of this fleet Old Mo was very dissatisfied with Chu Tian’s expression. Old Mo was a well known merchant in West Sea City, having a total of over a hundred ships, doing all kinds of business across the coastline. They had met this human who said that he had treasure to sell to them, that’s why they brought him along.
Who would have thought that this person would be so arrogant, daring to offend someone like Yuwen Xi? To destroy their little, it would only take a simple breath!
Chu Tian could only admit his mistake and promise he wouldn’t do it again.
Old Mo was a rather well known merchant and the West Sea City’s City Lord’s five hundredth birthday was tomorrow, so Old Mo had a chance to head into the palace to participate. Chu Tian was relying on this old man to have a chance to approach the West Sea City’s City Lord.
Old Mo asked Chu Tian, “You said that you had a precious treasure, was it true?”
“Could it by I was lying to the elderly? Please take a look!” Chu Tian revealed a smile hiding nothing and reached out into his chest, taking out a jade box. He casually opened the jade box and a golden fruit appeared in front of their eyes. A faint immortal spiritual aura filled the surrounding area, “A third level Half Step Immortal Treasure, the Golden Dragon Immortal Fruit. Is this enough?”
Everyone’s attentions were instantly grabbed.
When everyone saw this Immortal Herb, their eyes became passionate.
It was a Half Step Immortal Herb, it was actually a Half Step Immortal Herb that was at the third level! It really wasn’t simple!
How many people among these merchants had seen an Immortal Herb? For this youth that didn’t look that old was casually taking out something like this, how could people not be shocked?
Old Mo was the one that was most filled with joy. He had the qualification to join the West Sea City’s City Lord’s birthday banquet which was a glorious and precious matter, so how could he not prepare a rich gift when going? Old Mo couldn’t find a good item for this event, but now that there was a Half Immortal Grade treasure that one couldn’t ask for in front of him, how could he not be excited?
Old Mo didn’t even have time to speak.
“Brat, sell your treasure to me!” A tall and powerfully built spirit beast man came over, “However much source stones this old human can give you, I can also give you!”
Old Mo was worried, “Kui Gang, you…..”
“This belongs to me, one thousand source stones!” The spirit beast named Kui Gang who was very overbearing glared at Old Mo as he spoke, “Whoever dares compete with me, be careful on your trips from now on!”
Everyone revealed looks of fear. Old Mo was filled with rage, but he was helpless about this.
Kui Gang was also a merchant, but how could a spirit beast understand how to do business? He was the leader of a gang of pirates from the beginning and was infamous in this place. Anyone who dared annoyed him shouldn’t think of having any peace from now on.
One thousand source stones?
He wants to buy a precious Half Step Immortal Herb for one thousand source stones? This was no different from a robbery!
Kui Gang didn’t place Chu Tian in his eyes. When he saw this fruit, he already treated this fruit as his!
“Take it!”
Kui Gang’s two subordinates fiercely walked in front of Chu Tian.
Chu Tian said with a faint smile, “It’s not very smart to take things from my hands!”
“Humph, brat who doesn’t accept an offered toast!”
One of them took out a dagger from his waist and wanted to cut off Chu Tian’s hand holding the jade box. In the end, he used two fingers to grab the blade and the dagger was completely stuck, unable to move at all.
“You dare act up with this bit of strength?”
Chu Tian’s strength and spirit energy was activated at once, as his fingers snapped the blade like glass. It scattered all over the spirit beast’s body and it filled him with several holes.
The other spirit beast wanted to run after seeing the bad situation.
Chu Tian sent out the back of his palm and shattered all his bones. He was sent flying several dozen meters and landed into the water, spilling blood all over.
Kui Gang’s face fell and he prepared to release his source spirit.
Chu Tian softly flicked a finger and Kui Gang’s bones, flesh, and armour were all shattered by an unknown power. When he fell to the ground with a pitiful cry, he couldn’t fight back at all.
The surrounding merchants all revealed looks of awe.
Kui Gang was still a True Spirit Cultivator, he couldn’t even take a single hit?
Chu Tian took care of the trash as easily as pinching a few ants. He treated this as taking care of a small matter and he didn’t even spare them a glance. He turned to Old Mo and said, “Now can we make a deal?”
Everyone finally understood.
There wasn’t a problem with this human’s brain, he dared show everyone his treasure meaning that he was confident in keeping it. However, based on the display he just gave, he indeed had the qualifications to be confident!
Old Mo swallowed a mouthful of saliva before saying, “This value is very high, we can only determine a price after appraising it.”
Chu Tian shook his head and said, “I can sell it to you at half price, but I have a small request.”
“Request? What request?”
“I admire the beauty of the mermaids of West Sea City and there is a rare chance right now. I hope that you can help me by bringing me into the West Sea City’s City Lord Palace.”
That simple?
Naturally it was this simple!
Old Mo wanted to go to West Sea City anyway, bringing an extra person will not draw that much attention.
