Golden Radiance City is located in the southwestern region of the Western Wilderness Region. Although the area is barren, it is precisely because of this environment that the people who live here are often quite powerful. At a glance, the weakest person in the city has already reached the level of Five-Star Half-Emperor. Compared with some cities in the Western Lin Region, Golden Radiance City is undoubtedly much stronger.
What's most striking about Golden Radiance City isn't the generally high level of cultivation among its inhabitants, but rather that it's a haven for array masters.
In the Origin Martial Continent, alchemists are not the only professions formed by Spiritual Strength. In addition, array masters are also extremely terrifying. Although the power of array masters is not as vast as that of alchemists, which are spread throughout the continent and have even become the most powerful super force in the entire Origin Martial Continent, the special nature of array masters has made them a powerful profession in the cultivation world.
If alchemists are known for saving lives, then formation masters are known for their cruelty and tyranny. Their offensive power is the strongest among all humans and magical beasts, except for the powers of heaven and earth!
Therefore, although there seem to be many Half-Emperor in Golden Radiance City, even Dou Di might not be unable to fight against some powerful array masters!
On the horizon, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan approached the city below, which was shrouded in golden light. In just a short while, he landed before the magnificent city gate.
At first glance, the city wall in front of Xiao Yan was covered with mysterious runes, densely covering the entire wall. The golden light that enveloped Golden Radiance City emanated from these countless golden runes.
As he approached the city, even before reaching the foot of the city walls, Xiao Yan already felt an extremely powerful aura pressing down on him. The invisible pressure caused him to stop in his tracks, as if an invisible wall was forcibly blocking his way.
"What a powerful formation!"
With a slight slump in his legs, Xiao Yan's foot sank into the ground, leaving a footprint about an inch deep. At the same time, the expression on Xiao Yan's face changed slightly. A formation that could make even a Five-Star Dou Di feel pressured—this Golden Radiance City truly lived up to its reputation as a gathering place for formation masters!
His body trembled slightly, and the black robe on his body also shook. The already black robe seemed to become even purer at this moment. At the same time, the pressure that had been pressing on Xiao Yan's shoulders suddenly dissipated.
With his body feeling lighter, Xiao Yan 'Xiao Yan pace naturally quickened considerably. In contrast, those around him were all frozen in place with grim expressions under this oppressive force. It seemed that without a short period of adaptation, they would find it difficult to take another step.
Ignoring the astonished gazes around him, Xiao Yan walked forward with light steps, and soon arrived at the foot of the city gate, where the crowd around him grew larger.
At the city gate, there were several middle-aged men dressed in golden robes, each holding a palm-sized Formation Plate. Whenever someone approached, they would extend their plate, and the pedestrians entering the city would consciously take out ten Spirit Stone from their Storage Ring. After a flash on the Formation Plate, the spirit stones would be collected into it.
"Another city entrance fee..."
Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. However, upon reflection, he understood. This Golden Radiance City was under the protection of an array year-round, and the operation of the array inevitably required a large amount of Spirit Stone. Over a year, the amount of spirit Spirit Stone consumed would be considerable. The source of such a large amount of Spirit Stone was undoubtedly the most important issue, and charging an entrance fee was undoubtedly the best solution.
Having figured this out, Xiao Yan smiled and nodded. In that case, the actions of Jin Golden Radiance City were undoubtedly much more humane than those of Jin Ge in Wuyou City.
However, just as it seemed that the line ahead was about to reach Xiao Yan, a middle-aged man in a golden robe, from the crowd behind, forcefully pushed back the passersby and rushed straight to the front of the line.
"Hmph, anyone who wants to enter the city, get the hell out of my way!"
A rude shout came from the middle-aged man's mouth, and the passersby around him frowned and reluctantly made way. Some hot-tempered people, whose anger had just appeared on their faces, quickly retreated when they saw the man's golden robe, and a look of fear appeared on their faces as they angrily retreated.
In the blink of an eye, the path in front of the middle-aged man was quickly cleared, allowing only one person to pass at a time. Even the person who was originally standing in front of Xiao Yan moved aside.
Turning his head, Xiao Yan glanced at the golden-robed man rushing towards him, frowned inwardly, hesitated for a moment, and then moved to make way.
"Where did this brat come from, daring to block my way? Get out of my way!"
However, just as Xiao Yan was about to dodge, the middle-aged man had already arrived behind him.
Seeing that Xiao Yan did not make way, the man in the golden robe let out a disdainful snort. At the same time, he waved his sleeve, and a surge of Dou Qi shot out from his sleeve, transforming into a sharp beam of Dou Qi that instantly tore through the void in front of him and slashed fiercely toward Xiao Yan's head.
Such a fierce attack caused the faces of the passersby around to change drastically. Although this guy was domineering, it must be said that he had the capital to be domineering. Judging from this powerful aura alone, the cultivation level of this golden-robed man had probably reached the level of Two-Star Dou Di. In the entire Golden Radiance City, although he could not be called the strongest, there were few who could match him.
However, just as the golden-robed man attacked Xiao Yan, the latter, who was about to dodge, stood firmly in place, and his foot, which had just been half an inch off the ground, landed again.
Xiao Yan frowned slightly, his face somewhat gloomy. If this guy were just a bit foul-mouthed, it wouldn't be so bad, but such vicious methods made Xiao Yan feel ashamed.
Who could tolerate being treated like this for no reason?
Faced with such an offensive, an ordinary person would probably not have survived.
The sharp stream of Dou Qi rapidly magnified in Xiao Yan's eyes, but Xiao Yan calmly raised his palm and gently met it head-on. What was most astonishing was that he didn't even use a trace of Dou Qi.
However, just as everyone looked at Xiao Yan with pity, the stream of Dou Qi collided fiercely with Xiao Yan's palm in the next instant.
"Bang!"
