Chapter 595 Broken City(1/3)
Chapter 595: Broken City
Looking at the blurry city in his sight, a sentence from an ancient book flashed in Liu Yu's mind.
According to ancient records, the entire Annan Protectorate can be roughly divided into six continents.
Each continent is at least twice the size of Qingzhou.
The southernmost one is called "Yizhou" and the northernmost one is "Lingzhou".
The fairy city in the southernmost part of Yizhou is called "Changnan City" and is also the starting point of the "Changnan Ancient Road".
"So, we have arrived at the "Annan Protector's Mansion" now?"
Looking at the human traces on the avenue, this thought flashed across Liu Yu's mind, and his mind went up and down.
After nearly thirty years of living in the open air, even if he was determined and not content with having fun, he was really, really tired of it.
You must be wary of demon cultivators at all times. You may face a life or death crisis at any time, and the psychological pressure can be imagined.
Now, having finally reached the end of the journey, even Liu Yu, who has always been serious about words, couldn't help but show excitement on his face.
"What's wrong."
Seeing Liu Yu's abnormal expression, Zhuo Mengzhen, who was also holding a spiritual stone and recovering his magic power, asked.
"look."
Liu Yu gestured in the direction of the ancient city in the distance.
Hearing this, Zhuo Zhuomeng really looked over and opened his eyes wide the next moment.
"Chengchi, could it be that we have already walked out of the Hengduan Mountains?"
She stood there blankly for a few breaths before murmuring.
Thinking of the hardships along the way, another blush appeared on the pale face due to excitement.
"It should be true, monsters don't need a city."
With a slight smile, Liu Yu looked into the distance and said.
"But why do I still encounter demon cultivators from time to time when I get here, and there are also many low-level demon beasts?!"
Liu Yu frowned slightly as he looked at the demonic birds flying in the sky and the active demonic beasts on both sides of the road.
"Could it be that something happened to the Annan Protectorate in the past hundreds of thousands of years?"
Guesses arose in his mind.
Judging from the fact that the demon cultivators and monster beasts are so active, it is obvious that the city in the distance is no longer under the control of the human race.
"Is the city in front of me the "Changnan City"?"
"What happened to the Annan Protectorate in the past hundreds of thousands of years?"
"Is it just a fairy city that has fallen, or has the entire six continents fallen?!"
Questions emerged one after another. Looking at the monsters and the city in the distance, many questions arose in the two people's minds.
"Sneak over and take a look."
Looking at each other, the two nodded to each other and restored their mana at full speed.
Half an hour later, his mana was fully restored and the "Wall of Divine Consciousness" surrounded him. Liu Yu led Zhuo Mengzhen and flew toward the city.
…
With the Golden Core monk's escape speed, even if he doesn't escape with all his strength, his speed can be described as lightning fast.
As the line of sight keeps getting closer, the city in the distance becomes clearer and clearer.
Finally, about eighty miles away from the ancient city, Liu Yu and Zhuo Mengzhen landed on a hill about a hundred feet high and looked at the city carefully.
At a glance, the city stretches for dozens of miles from left to right, with almost no edge visible.
A feeling of weight and vastness naturally arises.
The entire city wall is green and black in color, as if it is made of magic weapon-level spiritual materials, and looks very hard.
On it, there are still traces left by swords and the remnants of various spells.
What caught their attention the most were some traces clearly left by monsters.
Such as claw marks, tooth marks, etc.
"pity."
Liu Yu sighed lightly.
It is a pity that this vast and heavy fairy city in front of us is now dilapidated and has not been maintained for a long time.
With the eyesight of the Jindan monk, standing at this distance, he could barely see the situation in the city clearly.
I saw that the blue-black city wall stretched for dozens of miles, and many sections in the middle had collapsed. Even if they had not collapsed, they were already in dilapidated condition.
Some places are even covered with moss and traces of corrosion over time.
Under the sunlight, the city wall was completely mottled, and even the traces left by magic weapons and spells on it became less obvious.
Time flows on the city walls, and the former glory will decay. The ancient fairy city is dilapidated and will no longer be as tall and majestic as it once was.
"Changnan City."
Beside him, Zhuo Mengzhen sighed heavily.
After the excitement, when she finally saw the face of the city clearly, she was obviously very disappointed.
An avenue dozens of feet wide spreads from the city's main entrance into the distance, but its path is blocked by mountains, as if cut off abruptly, making it extremely abrupt.
"This city should be the "Changnan City" of Yizhou. It's unmistakable."
"I didn't expect that hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and even this city has fallen into the hands of the demon clan."
Shaking his head slightly, Liu Yu sighed lightly as he looked at the scene in front of him.
This means that if they want to truly reach the Central Realm, they have to struggle with the demon cultivator again!
According to records in ancient books and what he saw and heard along the way, he was very sure that the ancient road in front of him was the "Changnan Ancient Road".
It's a pity that it has been destroyed!
The city in front of you is "Changnan City", but it has also fallen into the hands of the demon clan and turned into such a dilapidated state.
"Changnan, Changnan, means the great southern territory. Unfortunately, things are constantly changing."
Looking at the dilapidated city and the unrecognizable roads, Liu Yu looked a little complicated.
Being caught up in the struggle between the human and demon clans, even though he was already a golden elixir monk, he felt very powerless.
Nothing can be changed, you can only take one step at a time and move forward cautiously.
The two of them did not expect that when they came to the Central Territory with their mission, they would encounter such a situation, and even the Annan Protectorate might have fallen.
"What changes happened in these hundreds of thousands of years!"
"Does the Tang Dynasty still exist?"
"Is the contact information provided by the sect still valid at this time?"
Pulling back his divergent thoughts and thinking about the mission of the sect and the Seven Nations Alliance, Liu Yu thought silently in his heart.
The contact information given by the sect was to let him get in touch with the Annan Protectorate first, and then go to Chang'an through the Annan Six Continents.
Judging from the current situation, "Changnan City" and "Changnan Ancient Road" have become like this. Liu Yu is very doubtful whether the contact method is still effective.
Moreover, hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and it is not known whether the Tang Dynasty still exists or not. Maybe the dynasty has changed long ago.
Even between Tiannan and Zhongyu, there is still some "incense love".
But facing the obstacles from the Tiannan Monster Clan, he was very doubtful whether Zhongyu could make up his mind to help.
"But what does this have to do with myself?"
"Once the information is delivered, the mission has been completed."
"According to records, the world of immortal cultivation in the Central Region is far more prosperous than that in Tiannan, and there are more resources of all kinds."
"I really don't know when I will go back."
"Maybe by then, we will have reached a level that was once unimaginable, and returning to Tiannan will no longer be a problem?"
As he thought about it, Liu Yu laughed at himself, feeling funny about his unfounded worries.
He is just an "ordinary" Jindan monk, but he actually dares to think about Tiannan's future?
Thinking this, Liu Yu turned her eyes and continued to observe the situation.
I saw many groups of monsters gathering around the ancient city.
There are as few as five or six, as many as dozens, scattered above and around the city, monitoring the movements of the ancient city at all times.
On the broad avenue at the city gate, there were actually many mortals and monks going in and out, and they were not attacked by demonic cultivators and monsters.
It's just that these people don't seem to be living well.
To be continued...
