The Protagonist Is in the Right Position to Get Along With the Villain
Chapter 43
Just as Li Jinzhi's hand reached out halfway and was about to touch that layer of pitch-black light, he was pulled back by another hand. He turned his head in confusion and saw that Ye Yu's pupils had turned pitch-black.
"What's wrong?"
Li Jinzhi stared at the other party's pupils and his heartbeat quickened quietly, as if something was passing by quickly.
Ye Cheng did not speak and his pupils were still pitch black. He let go of Li Jinzhi's hand and closed his eyes as he raised his hand into the void. Li Jinzhi realized that his heartbeat had become very slow again. Not only that, he also realized that the people outside the void, the large group of cultivators surrounding the city gate, were also moving very slowly.
Ye Cheng suddenly clenched his fist. Everyone's movements were like retreating images, fast and stiff, as if they were being controlled by something.
Li Jinzhi noticed that the layer of light curtain on the city gate had also disappeared. Ye Cheng opened his eyes and pulled Li Jinzhi through the city gate restriction quickly. As soon as they passed through, someone opened the city gate restriction.
"From now on, the entire city is under martial law and all cultivators are prohibited from leaving the city."
A disciple guarding the city shouted loudly. The cultivators who were trapped inside moved their bodies and shouted in dissatisfaction.
Everything was like the scene that had just happened, except that the two people in the void were already outside.
Li Jinzhi stared blankly at the cultivators in the light curtain and then turned to look at Ye Cheng. "What's going on?"
"I've comprehended the power of time."
"Just now?" Li Jinzhi was slightly stunned and muttered, "Is this the power of time?
Control of time. "
"Just now, when you put your hand on the black curtain, I felt very uneasy. Although this void is another world, the walls and objects on the other side also exist here. If the black curtain vibrates, the cultivators on the other side may sense it and use some means to force you and me out. In my anxiety, I found a trace of the law of time."
Li Jinzhi, who was thinking about the time machine, nodded and said, "How long can we travel?
Can you go to the future? "
Ye Cheng shook his head and sighed. "The power of time can only affect what has just happened. If I want to travel through the past, present, and future, I'm afraid I'm unable to do so with my current ability. However, if my cultivation improves in the future, perhaps I can give it a try."
Li Jinzhi nodded. "I can only tear open the void and enter it. I can't travel through it either."
Both of them were down-to-earth people. Neither of them had any unrealistic thoughts of advancing by leaps and bounds. Since they had already come out, they naturally wouldn't dwell on the pros and cons.
Now that the Sect Leader was dead, the Seven Emotions Sect would be embroiled in a power struggle. It was unknown whether the Seven Emotions Sect would go out to hunt down the culprit in the near future. Moreover, with the new Sect Leader taking over, it was unknown whether the Seven Emotions Sect would spend manpower and resources to investigate the culprit in Guangyuan Desert.
After all, the Seven Emotions Sect was not as powerful as it was in the Northern Frozen Realm. Its vitality had been damaged in the battle with the Moksha. Coming here to compete for resources was even more troublesome.
The two of them did not leave the void. Instead, they turned into a beam of light and flew into the depths of the tunnel. The underground terrain was complicated. If they took the wrong path, they might end up in another city. Fortunately, the two of them had bought a detailed map, and the person leading the way was Ye Cheng. Therefore, it only took them a few days to reach their destination, the Earth's Core City.
The closer they got to the Earth's Core City, the wider the tunnel became. There were more and more cultivators coming and going. Even the level of the cultivators gradually increased from Foundation Establishment to Golden Elixir. It was equivalent to encountering ten cultivators. Seven of them were Golden Elixir, two were Qi Refinement, and one was a Golden Elixir.
Most of these cultivators were Hiroyuki. There were also a few normal-looking cultivators from the Friar Of The North. This showed the strength of the cultivators in the Earth's Core City.
After weighing the pros and cons, the two of them did not plan to show their real faces. Firstly, there was a conflict between the local cultivators of Guangyuan Plateau and the Friar Of The North. Secondly, they had just provoked the Seven Emotions Sect. Although they were half confident that the Seven Emotions Sect would not have the time to deal with them, nothing was absolute. If the old man's trusted disciple lost the competition for the position of the Sect Leader, he would probably come looking for them.
Although they were not afraid, it would still be troublesome.
The two of them swallowed two Appearance Changing Pills in the void. These were top-grade Appearance Changing Pills that they found in the Ice Palace. Not only could they change their foreign trade, but they could also change their body shape. However, the color of their eyes and hair could not be changed. Fortunately, the local cultivators of Guangyuan Plateau were quite different. Some of them had white hair and red eyes.
A series of strange cracking sounds came from their bones. The slender leg bones were compressed, and the tall man turned into a short winter melon. The two of them looked at each other and found it funny.
"Pale skin and short figure. You really look like a local of the Light Source." Li Jinzhi chuckled.
"Silver-white hair and white pupils. You look very similar too." Ye Cheng raised his eyebrows.
"Well, then we don't have to worry about the problems of our teams after the battle between the Light Source and the Northern Chill. If we provoke the Seven Emotions Sect, we will be blocked from joining the Northern Chill. If we are cultivators of the Northern Chill, we will definitely be rejected by the Light Source. If we have the local appearance of the Light Source, it may be more convenient."
Li Jinzhi sighed and pulled Ye Cheng to a hidden corner of the tunnel. After exiting the void, the two of them turned into conveyance lights and continued to move forward.
"This is the home ground of the Guangyuan Desert. Although the Earth Core City does not mind accepting the Friar Of The North, the conflict still exists. It is impossible for the local cultivators not to reject the Friar Of The North. It is indeed more convenient to use the appearance of a Hiroyuki to mingle in the desert." The two of them reached a consensus.
As they gradually approached the Earth Core City, the magnificent city gate at the end of the tunnel became clearer. The cultivators waiting at the gate to enter the city were all waiting in line.
In front of the two of them were two Friar Of The North. They were much taller than the Hiroyuki. The man kept talking, but the woman in the hood did not say a word.
The efficiency of the cultivators guarding the city was very high. After a while, it was Ye Cheng and Li Jinzhi's turn. The man in front took the token and handed it to the female cultivator beside him. "Die 'er, when the time comes, the two of us can rent the adjacent cave residence. It is also convenient for us to communicate."
The female cultivator turned her head and glanced at him, but did not say anything.
Li Jinzhi, who was following behind them, suddenly stopped. He raised his head and looked up, as if he wanted to see the face hidden under the hood. Perhaps because his movement was too big, the female cultivator looked down at him. When she saw that he was a Hiroyuki, she frowned slightly, as if she did not understand the other party's actions.
Ye Cheng slightly tightened his grip on Li Jinzhi's hand, and looked at the tall female cultivator with an unfriendly gaze. There was some confusion in his eyes. Li Jinzhi was not the kind of person who showed his emotions easily.
Die 'er
The two of them each took two light blue identity tokens, while Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng were given two light yellow identity tokens.
The disciple guarding the city was extremely cold towards the Friar Of The North, but after seeing Ye Cheng and Li Jinzhi, his attitude was completely different. Not only did he carefully explain the use of the identity token and the department that rented the cave residence in the city, but he also warmly warned the two of them to be careful of the Friar Of The North.
The two of them held the identity tokens in their hands and looked at each other in surprise. Sure enough, the treatment of Hiroyuki and the Friar Of The North were different when they entered the city. However, as for the specific differences, they would need to understand further to know.
Holding the identity tokens, they entered the city. According to the direction of the disciple guarding the city, they found the Immortal Cave Pavilion, the department that rented the cave residence.
There, Li Jinzhi and Ye Cheng met the two Friar Of The North from before. At this time, the two of them were arguing with the steward of the Immortal Cave Pavilion.
"Why can the Friar Of The North only rent the cave residence on the third floor underground?"
The male cultivator's voice was filled with anger, as if he was very dissatisfied with this arrangement. "When I came here earlier, I heard that the Earth Core City did not intervene in the war and received the cultivators of the Northern Han Dynasty fairly. Why did such a rule appear at this time?"
"The rules are set by people. Who says that if you are willing to accept them, you must be treated as a guest of honor?
Your Northern Han Dynasty invaded our Guangyuan, and you still want to enjoy the treatment of a guest? "
The steward of the Hiroyuki also had a face full of righteousness. He waved the light blue identity token in his hand and said, "If you don't want to rent, then leave. Don't you see that there are so many people lining up behind you?"
"You!"
The Friar Of The North was angrily about to open his mouth again, but he was pulled back by the female cultivator behind him. The woman pointed to the two cave residences on the third floor and handed over the identity token, not wanting to be entangled any further.
The steward took the two blue identity tokens, his expression like a rooster that had won a fight. "Twenty mid-grade spirit stones a year." This price was ridiculously high. It was obvious that he was extorting people.
Sure enough, when the two cultivators heard that it was twenty mid-grade spirit stones a year, they were slightly stunned and did not speak for a long time.
Li Jinzhi stood behind the two people and frowned. Although the man was wearing a hood, the more he listened, the more familiar his voice was, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
No, he often heard it. He was with the Ye Dieer.
Qing Mu!?
Li Jinzhi frowned. Thinking of the care Qing Mu had given him in the sect earlier, and the kindness of the Ye Dieer at that time, he said aloud, "Steward, in the war earlier, these two people saved my life. They must be different from the Friar Of The North. I wonder if …" As he spoke, the spiritual pressure of the Yuanying cultivator spread out slightly.
The steward was slightly startled. After detecting Li Jinzhi's cultivation, he muttered to himself, as if he was weighing the pros and cons of offending a Yuanying cultivator.
After a long while, he smiled and waved the two light blue cultivator identity tokens at the sixth floor underground, saying, "You should have said so earlier. Since they are your saviors, then it's another matter. The Earth Core City has always welcomed cultivators who are willing to join us.
The two of you, twenty low-grade spirit stones a year. This is your identity token. "His attitude was completely different.
The man and woman were slightly stunned. After receiving the identity token from the other party, they turned to look at Ye Cheng. It seemed that they could not remember when they knew this Hiroyuki, and he was a Yuanying cultivator.
If they did not know him, why would this person help them?
Li Jinzhi looked up at the two people and transmitted his voice, "Wait for me in the cave residence at night."
