An invitation from Glory City's lord, the Immortal Gate Writ, and Skill Advancement Stones!
" Glory City ranks fifth in strength among the 36 main cities!" Tao Tao said.
The three walked along the streets of Glory City, surrounded by bustling crowds.
However, most of them were not players, but rather native residents of Glory City.
Players blending in with these natives would appear very out of place and out of sync.
"The city lord's name is Mu Heng, and he's a level 85 spirit array master. He only came out to watch the excitement when the first batch of players entered Glory City at the beginning of the server launch, and no one has seen him since."
"There are 10,000 guards in the city, mainly responsible for maintaining order. They are all level 50 or above and wear Spirit Artifact sets."
"Once, some players tried to kill the guard to obtain the Spirit Artifact on him, but a thousand people couldn't even last two minutes before being wiped out by a single guard."
"The guards' attack power is terrifying; their normal attacks exceed 1,000, and their skill attacks exceed 10,000."
"Only over 10,000? That's not that impressive!" Bai Yunlu.
Although Bai Yunlu was a veteran player, she never cared about these things.
When she plays games, she only cares about two things: cool equipment and delicious food.
As for things like the city lord's level, profession, guard's level, attack power, etc., she didn't care at all.
Previously, her level was basically achieved by others helping her.
She herself didn't even have much experience in killing monsters.
You could say he's Little White player who's been playing for three years, even if he's a complete newbie.
But Tao Tao knew all this information like the back of her hand!
"Sis, do you think everyone is like you and Ling Yi, with superhuman stats? Ordinary players are level 30 or 40 and their attack power is still less than 500!" Tao Tao rolled her eyes.
" Ling Yi, do you think it's possible for us to seize the city lord's position and become the city lord ourselves?"
Hearing Bai Yunlu's words, Ling Yi was taken aback. Was that possible?
You might be able to kill the city lord, but you might not be able to seize his position.
Otherwise, Teng Long wouldn't have needed to ask him to help him obtain the City-Siege Writ.
However, when I have time later, I can go and meet this city lord. As the leader of a powerful force in the Immortal Domain, I believe he should know a lot of secrets about the Immortal Domain!
Seeing Ling Yi deep in thought, Tao Tao was somewhat surprised. "No way? You guys really want to steal the city lord?"
Ling Yi smiled and said, "I'll give it a try if I get the chance, but for now, let's change jobs first."
While we're at it, let's see if we can cross the border and take a trip to the Radiant Water Country.
Led by Tao Tao, the three of them soon arrived at a five-story building in the central area of Glory City.
Building Name: Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion!
And this is Ling Yi's business in Glory City.
It was Ling Yi who persuaded Tao Tao to buy the property in Glory City at a high price.
To be precise, Tao Tao traded a thousand Hidden Class Scroll for them from the city lord's mansion.
Tao Tao's initial idea was to buy a shop.
After discovering that Hidden Class Scroll could be used for trading, he simply spent a thousand Hidden Class Scroll to obtain the property deed and land deed for the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion from the city lord's mansion!
Furthermore, they even gave Ling Yi and his group a defensive formation for free.
According to the old steward of the city lord's mansion, this defensive formation is extremely difficult to break through for anyone below level 60!
A thousand Hidden Class Scroll would be a huge sum for ordinary players, and even for the City Lord's Mansion, but that's exactly what Ling Yi and his group have in abundance right now.
"What was the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion originally for?" Ling Yi asked.
"The city lord's mansion was originally intended to be used as an auction house, but it was never put into operation and remained idle, which is why we benefited from it."
"Then let's continue with the auction house!"
"Are you planning to auction off Origin Artifact and Divine Artifacts?"
"Can this be auctioned off? Origin Artifact are fine, but divine artifacts are so common, will anyone actually buy them at a high price?"
"Let's see how it goes after the auction. We've already bought the building, so it's just sitting idle anyway."
The market in Teng Long is already saturated.
The Hidden Class Scroll is a powerful artifact; almost every guild member has one.
Teng Long voluntarily suspended its transaction with Ling Yi.
It's not because he can't afford it. After all, Ling Yi practically gave away the Hidden Class Scroll and the artifact for free. Besides, even if he doesn't use them now, he can save them.
But Teng Long clearly has deeper considerations.
This involves some messy matters mentioned above, which Teng Long only vaguely mentioned to Ling Yi without going into detail.
In short, Teng Long's point is that he only needs what he needs and doesn't want to stockpile more.
Teng Long fully supports Ling Yi opening an auction house.
He told Ling Yi that he should hoard as many gold coins as possible in the Immortal Domain, as they would be very useful in the future.
Since Teng Long has said so, then the auction house really is going to open.
"Where is the Star Radiance Guild's headquarters?" Ling Yi asked.
Tao Tao pointed to the huge manor diagonally opposite to her right.
"That's the headquarters of the Glory Guild."
Although it's called a base, it's actually just a temporary base that was bought and isn't officially recognized.
Only when a guild establishes a city can it truly have its own territory.
However, so far, no City-Building Writ has been issued in the Immortal Domain.
"I'll be right there. We'll head to the border to close it off shortly!"
"Okay!" Bai Yunlu.
However, as soon as Ling Yi stepped out of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, he was stopped by an old man.
"My Heavenly People, I am the steward of the City Lord's Mansion. My master wishes to invite Heavenly People to his residence for a discussion!"
"Celestial Beings" is the name given to these players by the original inhabitants of the Immortal Realm.
Ling Yi became interested; he had originally planned to have a chat with the city lord when he had more time in the future!
Unexpectedly, this opportunity came knocking on our door.
Liu Rui can be dealt with anytime, since she can't run away anyway.
Moreover, after the siege of Red Maple Village, Star Radiance Group is likely in serious trouble.
Teng Long represents the official government, and its staff are all active-duty personnel.
Star Radiance Group has gone mad; they actually dared to attack Teng Long.
Whether Liu Rui can survive this ordeal is another matter entirely!
"Lead the way!" Ling Yi said calmly.
"Please!"
The old man led Ling Yi, and they soon arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, which was very close to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion.
Inside the city lord's mansion, a dignified-looking man, dressed in a blue robe, sat in the main seat.
This is Mu Heng, the city lord of Glory City.
[ Mu Heng (Lord of Glory City - Spirit Array Master) lv85, Attack???, Defense???, Spiritual Power???, Skills???]
All I can see is Mu Heng's level 85 and profession; everything else is just question marks!
Under normal circumstances, level 85 shouldn't pose much of a threat to Ling Yi.
After all, Ling Yi could easily kill even a level 200 evolved boss.
Upon seeing Mu Heng, Ling Yi inexplicably Perception the Yinyin aura emanating from him.
This city lord is very powerful!
" Farmer Boy, this city lord wants to make a deal with you," Mu Heng said bluntly.
"I wonder what the city lord wishes to trade?"
" Farmer Hidden Class Change Scroll!"
Ling Yi frowned and asked, "Is the Farmer Hidden Class Scroll really that valuable?"
"I can trade a scroll for a Immortal Gate Writ Token," Mu Heng said, tossing Ling Yi a token that looked like white jade.
Ling Yi reached out and caught it; instantly, the information on the Immortal Gate Writ appeared before Ling Yi.
[ Immortal Gate Writ: This token can be used to activate the Immortal Gate Trial Quest. Successfully completing the trial allows you to join the Immortal Gate.]
Ling Yi didn't know how much this thing was worth, but if it had the word "Xian" on it, its value was absolutely extraordinary.
"Farmers are different from other professions; they can only change professions once. Even if you have extra scrolls, they are useless!" Mu Heng said slowly.
"There are only 100 Immortal Gate Writ in the entire Mortal World Realm. With this token, one can join Immortal Gate a hundred years earlier, saving them the trouble of selection!"
The more Mu Heng said that, the higher the value of the farmer's Hidden Class Scroll.
Trading is possible, but the Immortal Gate Writ is optional.
He has a cheat code; his skill level has no upper limit. Whether he joins Immortal Gate or not, he will gradually become invincible.
What Ling Yi really needs right now is information about this world.
"Lord of the City, could you tell me about the Immortal Gate?"
Mu Heng stood up from his chair, slowly walked down the steps, came to the window, looked at the sky outside, and said, " The Immortal Gate, high above, control the laws of the world."
" The Immortal Gate opens once every thousand years to initiate the Immortal Gate Trial. Passing the trials grants entry into the Immortal Gate!"
What about failure?
"Failure means death!"
"Whenever the Immortal Gate opens, billions of beings enter the Immortal Gate Trial grounds, but less than one in ten thousand can pass!"
"But with the Immortal Gate Writ, it's different. Even if you fail, you won't die; you'll just be Teleport back to the Mortal World Realm."
Is this the upcoming major plot development in the Immortal Domain?
The Immortal Gate opens; the Immortal Gate Immortal Gate Trial begin.
However, Ling Yi sensed something different in the city lord's words.
They seemed to have an extreme aversion to this Immortal Gate Trial.
"City Lord, you just said that one can participate in the Immortal Gate Writ Immortal Gate Trial Token. Does that mean that a hundred years later is the millennium?" Ling Yi asked.
"Right!"
Ling Yi frowned. The Immortal Gate opens after a thousand years; is it still a hundred years away?
But according to Teng Long, wasn't the Immortal Gate supposed to open right after this World Championship?
If you don't understand, just ask.
"Lord of the City, as far as I know, the Immortal Gate will open in less than a month!"
Mu Heng scoffed, "That's not Immortal Gate, it's Gate of Calamity!"
" The Gate of Calamity?"
Mu Heng waved his hand and said, "I can't go into details, but if you make the deal, not only will I give you the Immortal Gate Writ, but I can also grant you the right to trade some rare resources."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Heng threw another Shitou to Ling Yi.
Upon seeing the information about the Shitou, Ling Yi's eyes immediately lit up.
[ Skill Advancement Stone): After use, it can directly advance a skill to the first rebirth.]
They even have this kind of thing?
Doesn't that mean that as long as you have this Skill Advancement Stone, you can skip the process of grinding for proficiency and directly advance to the next skill level?
"One thousand divine artifacts can be exchanged for one, or one Origin Artifact artifact can be exchanged for one, or one ' Escape ' skill book can be exchanged for ten!" Mu Heng said to Ling Yi with a smile.
Ling Yi wanted to say something, but when the words came out, he didn't know how to put them into words.
I always felt like this Mu Heng could see right through me.
"How did you know?" Ling Yi asked instinctively.
"As for the specifics of power, don't ask too many questions. You'll understand its meaning when you become the city lord. For you now, knowing too much isn't a good thing."
Fine, if you won't tell me, I won't ask.
"How many Skill Advancement Stone do you have? I'll take them all!" Ling Yi said, taking a deep breath.
