Chapter 256: Nine Nine Eighty-One Transformations

Eastern Descent City was extreht for its city walls The citadel pillared all the way to the clouds A its ancient walls, there were countless mottled holes with numerous scratches from arrows and blades Even up till now, one could still find broken arrows nailed to the walls

Even though it was old and tattered by the arduous workings of tihout Each brick and boulder contained dao runes for these walls were reinforced by countless wise sages of the human race Because of this, it was able to withstand countless years without falling

Li Qiye started to recall the past while looking at this ancient city Did modern society understand the past where the human race lived in a dark and tortuous era? At the Mortal Emperor World, the hu that era, Eastern Descent City was one of the last bastions of the human race

In the present times, how many people knew about the plethora of bloody battles that occurred right outside these walls during the human race’s darkest times? The enemy attacked one after another while the huain! The city had been shattered ain to rebuild these walls and reinforce the out to the very end!

Sad emotions filled Li Qiye’s heart for this city carried many memories for him However, he didn’t want to think about the era of the Ancient Ming again — the darkest time of the human race! At that time, how many people by his side died in battle? In that era, how ht till their death!?

He went on like this while standing in a daze outside of the city No matter the occasion, his heart always dimmed dohen he recalled the darkest era

“Brother Li, what’s wrong?” While he was in a daze, staring at Eastern Descent City, Chi Xiaodao called for him several times, but no response was found

Chi Xiaodie looked at the stunned Li Qiye and angrily said: “What are aiting for? Don’t tell e and prosperous ancient city like this! Weren’t you boasting all the way to the high heavens earlier? Are you finally nervous now?”

Li Qiye was in a bad lared at her and slowly said: “Even if you don’t talk, no one will think that you are a entle and virtuous girl!” [1 The last sentence was a bit hard to translate to English, so I did change it a bit The entleness and virtues are unlikely to be wrong A phrasing fix will irls are without criticis, so I added an outsider perspective to ]

Li Qiye’s sudden outburst had an unspeakable dignity, leaving Chi Xiaodie to be stunned for a bit After regaining her wits, she was a bit elared at Li Qiye and wanted to explode: “You!”

“We should go inside There is not much to look at here!” Chi Xiaodao quickly tried to sed the topic the moment he saw the quarrel that was likely to ensue

Chi Xiaodie snorted and ignored Li Qiye, then she went inside the city Li Qiye was not in a good mood so he was too lazy to care for her

After entering Eastern Descent City, anyone would be affected by its bustling atmosphere There were so many people as they had to walk shoulder to shoulder One could see people flying in the sky and walking on water; there were even those ere sightseeing underwater

One could see a wide variety of races at this city, but of course, huin of the human race, one couldn’t even count all the mortals, let alone cultivators [2 This statement was a bit weird because there should be more mortals than cultivators, but since this is a cultivators’ city, it does make sense]

One could even see the demon race here at the city whenever they want Even demons who have not completely escaped from their beast bodies were very plentiful; human body with a serpent head, bird head with a serpent body, tiger body with a human head… Mortals have seen so many of them

Even the rarely seen Ghost Immortal Race, Stone Golem Race, and Blood Race could be found inside

For anyone anted to buy or sell treasures, Eastern Descent City was definitely the best choice in the eastern region This was the origin of the hureat powers Because of this, a particular phrase ell known in the city — Eastern Descent City, there is nothing you can’t buy, there is only you lacking est alchemy shops in the city, they still weren’t able to buy the Rotten Underworld Bean

“What is this Rotten Underworld Bean, why is it so hard to buy!” Chi Xiaodie asked Li Qiye after not being able to find it at est shops

At this tiotten better so he slowly explained: “It is not too strange to have a difficult ti the Rotten Underworld Bean It is not precious before maturity; it has to be buried with the dead in the sareatprecious”
