Chapter 2588: Leaving the Myriad Gods Tower
"Lin Feng, I hope you have the chance to come here again." Fan Yun looked at Lin Feng and said with a sigh. Lin Feng was a very special person. Fan Yun wanted to recruit Lin Feng, but he knew that such a talented person would not agree, so he didn’t say more and only extended an invitation.
"Tower Master, I probably will." Lin Feng replied with a calm smile, speaking with a smart person really doesn’t require too much effort.
Fan Yun glanced at Lin Feng and finally shook his head, then said to Song Cheng, "See Lin Feng off."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, Song Cheng immediately agreed and then took Lin Feng into the sky...
...
High above, a delicate pagoda shimmering with faint golden light floated in the air. The golden light was very gentle, and if one didn’t pay attention, no one would suspect that above the clouds, there was such a treasure.
Suddenly, a flash of light passed across one of the layers of the pagoda, and Lin Feng and Song Cheng stood on the edge of the first layer of the pagoda, looking at the vast sea of clouds. Only then did Lin Feng realize that the so-called Myriad Gods Tower was a real tower, and it was indeed a treasure floating in the air. Such means were truly a work of heaven and earth, the Myriad Gods Tower was indeed extraordinary!
"The Myriad Gods Tower truly lives up to its reputation!"
Standing on the first layer of the delicate pagoda radiating golden light, Lin Feng couldn’t help but exclaim. The Myriad Gods Tower was made of some material he completely didn’t know about, and inside the tower, there was an enormous space similar to his Cave Heaven Mansion. Such means weren’t achievable by ordinary people, and even he greatly admired whoever was capable of creating the Myriad Gods Tower, an ability beyond imagination!
"When exactly the Myriad Gods Tower appeared is a mystery in itself. We only know that the first Tower Master discovered it here and subsequently established the Myriad Gods Tower. Time passed for countless years, yet the real Myriad Gods Tower hasn’t changed, always wandering in the high skies. We can’t even determine where it will be next." Song Cheng smiled at Lin Feng and explained.
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng was also quite surprised. Initially, he thought the Myriad Gods Tower was just floating here, only to now know that it moves. This was beyond his imagination, and at that moment, he was even more curious about the Myriad Gods Tower. Who exactly built the Myriad Gods Tower back in the day, just letting such a treasure float around in the air?
But he soon put these thoughts aside. Now he wanted to leave here, and exploring the secrets of the Myriad Gods Tower was a taboo in itself, so he didn’t want to dwell on it too much and said to Song Cheng beside him, "Let’s go!"
"Alright!"
With Song Cheng’s word, in front of them, a dharma treasure appeared in the air—a lengthy over-ten-zhang object like a longsword. However, unlike typical longswords, this sword’s blade was much wider and thicker, making the shape very peculiar, in short, just one word—ugly!
"This is my flight dharma treasure, the Sky-Blending Flying Sword. Though it looks a bit odd, it’s top-notch for traveling. Come onboard." Seeing Lin Feng staring at his flight dharma treasure, Song Cheng’s old face flushed. Honestly, his Sky-Blending Flying Sword was indeed very ugly. He thought about changing it, but the problem was he couldn’t find a faster flight dharma treasure than the Sky-Blending Flying Sword, so he had no choice.
Looking at Song Cheng’s expression, Lin Feng also smiled, saying nothing more, and followed Song Cheng onto the Sky-Blending Flying Sword. As they stepped onto the Sky-Blending Flying Sword, their surroundings suddenly flashed with white light, and the two disappeared from the Sky-Blending Flying Sword.
Inside the Sky-Blending Flying Sword, Song Cheng led Lin Feng to a round table, and above the table was a cloud chart. Song Cheng pointed on the cloud chart, which instantly displayed their approximate position within the Heaven God Realm.
"Lin Feng, where do you want to go?"
Looking at the cloud chart, Song Cheng suddenly realized he still didn’t know Lin Feng’s destination, so he proactively asked at this moment.
"I want to go to the Southern Sea region, just find me a city." Lin Feng casually replied. However, as he looked at the cloud chart, his eyes lit up. Even though his Aurora was fast, it still requires manual control. If Aurora also had such a cloud chart, it would be much easier to operate. It seemed he should also think about it when he has time in the future.
Hearing Lin Feng say this, Song Cheng didn’t say much. He raised his hand and pointed at a spot near the coast on the cloud chart, then pulled Lin Feng to sit by the table for tea.
"No need to worry, it’ll take about three days to get there."
Seeing Lin Feng still looking at the cloud chart, Song Cheng smiled and said, then poured Lin Feng a cup of tea and started chatting with him.
"It’s been a long time, where have you been all these years?"
"Don’t mention it, just a normal training, but I ran into the Eternal Blood Demon, and almost didn’t make it!"
"The Eternal Blood Demon, how did you encounter that guy!"
"At that time, in Purple City, the disciple of the Eternal Blood Demon impersonated the City Lord and set up a Soul-Devouring Killing Array in the city, intending to sacrifice and refine everyone in Purple City. I discovered it..."
"You did the right thing, but it was really dangerous. Luckily, you survived!"
"Yes, if it weren’t for the Colorful Butterfly Divine Venerable, I would have been dead."
...
While drinking tea, Song Cheng was amazed by Lin Feng’s experiences over the years, not expecting such a tumultuous life for Lin Feng. But to his surprise, Lin Feng knew the Colorful Butterfly Divine Venerable, and their relationship was good enough for the Divine Venerable to spare no cost in saving Lin Feng, which is not something ordinary people can do.
Moreover, he was more curious about Lin Feng’s encounters under the sea. As they talked, the conversation flowed freely, discussing whatever came to mind, and time passed like that unnoticed...
In the blink of an eye, three days later, the Sky-Blending Flying Sword suddenly stopped. The two left the Sky-Blending Flying Sword, standing above the clouds, looking at a gigantic city below.
"Below us is the largest city on the Southern Coast, Lin City." Song Cheng pointed to the city below and smiled at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng glanced over, instantly taking in everything about the city.
The gigantic city sat on the coast, its expanse beyond words, even from ten thousand miles in the sky, the city’s magnificence could be felt. Most intriguingly, Lin City was mostly on land but partially extended into the sea, with numerous docks connected to some gigantic ships.
The two said no more and flew downward. As they descended, Lin City’s grandeur became even clearer. When they arrived above Lin City, even the well-traveled Lin Feng couldn’t help but gasp.
The ships in the sea were far larger than they had seen before, reaching hundreds of feet high and long, covered in metal armor, with cannon-like defensive structures on them. Many such metal ships floated on the sea, their dense metallic aura imposing a particular pressure, reminiscent of Earth’s aircraft carrier fleets, but these metal ships were far superior, a more advanced and dangerous existence!
On the coast, the buildings in Lin City were solid, different from other cities, primarily built with stone. The city walls, towering over one hundred feet high and dozens of feet thick, though not reaching ten thousand miles, were still vast!
Seeing Lin Feng’s astonished expression at the city below, Song Cheng smiled calmly, put the Sky-Blending Flying Sword into his Space Treasure, and then led Lin Feng downwards. Circling around, he introduced, "Lin City is quite a unique city, not controlled by a single sect power but jointly ruled by multiple strong powers. There is no City Lord Mansion, only an Elders Council. Major decisions are made by eight Divine Venerable Peak elders together. So it stands out."
Lin Feng nodded, never having seen such a vast city before. Through Song Cheng’s explanation, he learned what Lin City was like and became curious about it. Following Song Cheng’s lead, they landed in a small square within the city.
They walked out of the small square and headed towards Lin City Auction House along a straight street. The street was extremely wide, about dozens of feet wide, crowded with people, mingled with shouting, bustling with activity.
Among the crowd, Lin Feng saw many shops, larger in scope than those in Ling City, with roadside shops at least three or four stories high, indicating Lin City’s prosperity.
A few hours later, the two arrived at a tall tower in the city center.
Like other cities’ auction houses, a golden gourd-shaped building over a hundred feet tall and spanning several miles caught Lin Feng’s eye. Unlike other cities, this auction house was several times larger, but he immediately understood why. For Lin City’s size, a grand auction required a sizable venue, so the auction house being so massive was actually quite normal.
The two walked directly into the auction house, just past the consignment area, a server in a black long robe approached, appearing in his thirties, smiling.
"May I help you with anything?" The server asked, looking at Lin Feng and Song Cheng, in a very respectful tone.
"Have Xue Fan come to see me, I’m Song Cheng." Song Cheng said directly, signaling the server to find Xue Fan, as he and Xue Fan were close friends!
The server, upon hearing this, immediately led them to the VIP lounge, then quickly went to notify Xue Fan. Not long after, Xue Fan’s voice came from outside the door.
