The moment the white light swallowed up all the vision, Qin Tiexin's feet were empty.

Then there was a violent spin. Colorful lights exploded in front of my eyes, red, yellow, blue, green and purple were twisted together like an overturned dye vat, and my ears were filled with a sharp buzzing sound.

He felt that his whole body was twisted into a twist by an invisible force, and then suddenly straightened out. The contents of his stomach turned up, and his feet were almost off the ground. He gritted his teeth, tightened his legs to support his body, closed his eyes, and held the handle of Edgeless tightly with his left hand.

When the deacon said ten breaths, he counted them breath by breath in his mind.

When I counted to the eighth breath, the tearing feeling suddenly weakened. The soles of my feet stepped on the ground again, and the buzzing in my ears quickly subsided. Qin Tiexin opened his eyes.

Teleportation Hall.

This hall is more than three times larger than the stone chamber of the Divine Sword Sect. The dome is twenty feet high, and a dozen thick bluestone pillars line both sides. The pillars are engraved with Elder Gu runes in the same style as those on the teleportation array. The teleportation array at your feet is more than ten feet in diameter and can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time. The spiritual power on the edge of the array is slowly fading, and the white light of Spirit Stone is brightening and dimming, as if you are breathing.

The air was humid and hot, and Qin Tiexin felt the difference when he took his first breath. The air Azure Xuan Region was dry and cold, and it felt like drinking cold water when he breathed it into his lungs. The air here was Heaviness sticky, with an earthy smell of rotten vegetation and steamed by the sun. The clothes stuck to his skin were a little damper than before.

"Why are you so stunned? Let's go."

Chen Xi patted him and walked off the formation first.

The caravan monks who arrived in the same batch as Qin Tiexin had already picked up the jade box and walked towards the nearest exit. Someone could vaguely be seen waving to them at the door.

Qin Tiexin held Edgeless tightly and followed Chen Xi towards the exit.

There was a row of stone counters at the exit, and several clerks were registering information for the arriving monks. Chen Xi picked the shortest line up and waited for two sticks of incense before it was their turn.

"Name, cultivation, and purpose of coming to the Myriad Stars Dynasty."

The Foundation Establishment Realm clerk sitting behind the stone cabinet did not raise his head, holding a jade pen in his hand and hanging it above the register.

"Azure Xuan Region Qin Tiexin, Early Stage of the Qi and Blood Realm, seek medical attention."

"Azure Xuan Region Chen Xi, Golden Core Early Stage, accompany."

Hearing the words "Golden Core Early Stage", the clerk's pen paused, raised his head and glanced at Chen Xi, then lowered his head and wrote a few more strokes.

Immediately afterwards, he took out two light yellow jade tablets from the drawer, printed them on a palm-sized array plate on the counter, and pushed them in front of the two of them.

"The temporary identity certificate is valid for one year. When it expires, you need to go to the [Identity Office] in any city to renew it. If it is overdue, you will be treated as illegal stay, which can range from being fined and expelled to being detained in more serious cases."

Qin Tiexin took the jade sign and Divine Sense scanned it.

Embedded in the jade plaque is his name, cultivation level and a simple imprint of Spirit Rune, imprinting the current appearance of Qin Tiexin and Chen Xi, without any further information.

Qin Tiexin put away the jade token solemnly, while Chen Xi casually stuffed his jade token into his sleeve.

After exiting the gate of the Teleportation Hall, Falling Star City was truly revealed in front of Qin Tiexin.

A ten-foot-wide main street stretches straight from the entrance to the teleportation hall to the end of the field of vision. The bluestone road is polished by the passing vehicles and pedestrians. Monks come and go on the street, including monks with very short hair and gray cloth monks' robes, Daoist priests with three-foot long beards and fairy-like bones, Rogue Cultivator with a sword hanging from his waist, and Aristocratic Clan's disciples in gorgeous robes.

There were several animal carts parked on the roadside. The carts pulled by Demon Beast looked like rhinos but had carapace on their backs. They were slowly chewing the fodder fed by the cart drivers.

Seeing the two people coming out of the teleportation point, the eyes of the people on the beast car lit up at first, as if they saw some distinguished guests.

When they saw that there was nothing else in their hands, they immediately returned to the car without interest and continued to wait. It was not until they saw the caravan coming out holding the storage box that they rushed forward again and introduced their conditions over and over again.

"Seniors, Li Household has served spiritual tea and spiritual fruits and is waiting for your visit!"

"I, Azure Spirit Sect, have prepared enough years of spirit medicine to redeem, and the price is absolutely affordable!"

"My third-grade alchemy Vermilion Cloud Sect Alchemist can open the alchemy furnace at any time to exchange for your materials."

"I, Golden Moon Chamber of Commerce, have booked the most luxurious restaurant in Falling Star City, and I'm waiting for you, seniors!"

The caravan seemed to have a goal in mind, so it chose an animal cart and boarded it. The carapace rhinoceros kicked its feet, and four clouds rose under its feet, steadily pulling everyone away. The other people next to it sighed secretly, and then sat back next to the cart and continued to wait.

Qin Tiexin watched with great interest. Those vendors who looked like ordinary people soliciting customers were indeed real High Stage of Qi Refining monks, and there was even a Foundation Establishment Realm monk.

In Azure Xuan Region, the busiest place he had ever seen was Divine Sword Sect fang City, but it was a commercial district affiliated with the sect after all. Falling Star City gave him a completely different feeling. It was more like an enlarged mortal city. There were not only monks walking on the street, but also mortals with no cultivation, and even a few children riding bamboo toy ponies running around in the alleys.

If it weren't for the vague spiritual energy fluctuations in everyone, he almost thought he was back in a certain state city in Great Xuan.

Chen Xi did not walk along the main street. He led Qin Tiexin into a narrow alley on the side of the main street, then turned left and right, passed through two low-rise residential areas, and walked around a small temple, finally stopping in front of an inconspicuous wooden door.

The wooden door was embedded in the center of a blue brick courtyard wall. The top of the wall was covered with some kind of vines, releasing a faint vegetation Spiritual Qi. Chen Xi. He took out a copper key from the storage ring, inserted it into the keyhole, turned it twice, opened the door and walked in.

The yard is not big, with two stone rooms, and a seven-eight-foot-square patio sandwiched between them. The floor of the patio is paved with blue bricks, and there are a few clumps of withered grass growing in the cracks between the bricks. Chen Xi bolts the door from the inside and opens the door facing the patio. The furnishings in the house are simple, including a stone bed, a wooden table, and two chairs. The tabletop is very clean. I don't know if it is because of the formation, but someone comes to clean it regularly.

"This is the yard I bought before. It is legal and compliant, and no one can trace it." Chen Xi said as he took out a pile of bottles and cans and several sets of neatly folded clothes from the storage ring and placed them on the table, "Myriad Stars Dynasty There are many people here. The caravans that come here for business are better. The two of us Azure Xuan Region are here with temporary status and are not familiar with the place. We are easily targeted no matter what we do, and we cannot escape if something happens."

He picked out a small celadon jar from the jars and unscrewed the lid. Inside was a light yellow paste, exuding a faint herbal smell.

"Sit down and let me change your appearance."
