Chapter 542: First Arrival at the Ancient City of Primordial

operations, it costs tens of thousands of taels of silver every year.If a family relies solely on the support of one person, it will not be able to fully maintain the operation of the clan.Therefore.L...As for the words of the Heavenly God Emperor, Shen Changqing did not respond.

The power of the Ancient Alliance doesn't matter much to him, it has no impact on his journey. After all, he didn't come to the ancient city to confront the Ancient Alliance.

But there is no doubt.

Any ancient power would never be as simple as it appears on the surface.

The Ancient Alliance has controlled the Ancient City for many years, able to endure through several ancient epochs without being destroyed. This alone speaks volumes about their profound understanding of the way of survival.

Even the gods, over countless eons of time, have not been immune to turning into dust.

Therefore.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Ancient Alliance is, in some ways, sturdier than many divine races.

However.

As the mighty Heavenly God Monarch said.

The Tai Gu League was able to force a newly promoted God Sovereign to fall under the punishment of lightning, which shows just how profound its foundation is.

Such formidable strength.

Even if it were compared to the top divine clans, it would probably be impossible.

"It is said that the Cloud Dragon Divine Clan has a genius trapped in the Ancient City. With the strength of the Ancient Alliance, I estimate that even if the Cloud Dragon Divine Clan wants to fight head-on, they would have to think carefully about it!"

But.

Yúnzhōu, despite being from Yúnjīng, couldn't be suppressed by the Taigǔ League forever.

But these matters involve the Taigu Alliance and the Yunlong Divine Race, which are things I can't fully understand for now.

Dismissing their thoughts, the two continued to soar toward the direction of the ancient city.

Compared to the Heavenly Thunder Domain.

The Ancient Ruins Domain is far more vast than the Heavenly Thunder Domain.

The Ancient City was located in the core area of the Desolate Region. It took them several days to finally see the outline of the Ancient City.

"This is the ancient city!"

Shen Changqing looked at the magnificent city in front of him, his eyes filled with awe.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Even with his keen eyesight, he could not see the end of Taigu City. The magnificent city was filled with a desolate and ancient aura, as if it were a world unto itself, eternally existing.

Before coming to the ancient city, Shen Changqing was still imagining what the rumored ancient city looked like.

...until now.

Only then did he truly see what the Ancient City was.

Had Shen Changqing not known beforehand that this was a city, he would have almost mistaken it for a piece of land located on the ancient continent, or perhaps a terrifyingly powerful being slumbering.

The mere whiff of its ancient aura could strike awe into the heart, inducing an instinctive sense of reverence.

The Overlord God looked at the ancient city, and there was also emotion in his eyes: "Since ancient times, the ancient city has always been located in the center of the Desolate Ancient Realm. It is rumored that the ancient city itself is an extremely terrible treasure."

This priceless treasure has long remained unrefined by any powerful being.

Later on, I heard that powerful members of the Taigu Alliance refined the ancient city, and with the might of the ancient city, the Taigu Alliance was able to endure forever.

Treasure!

Shen Changqing looked at the ancient city in front of him, his eyes filled with awe.

If the Ancient City truly is a treasure of immeasurable value, then what kind of priceless artifact could possibly surpass it

"Senior, are the words of the Overgodly Venerable true"

"As for the Ancient City, I have no knowledge of it. It likely did not birth any sentient beings. However, judging by its aura alone, there might be a possibility that it is indeed a powerful artifact. Who knows"

After all, among the myriad heavens, there are also some unique treasures. Although they do not nurture spiritual intelligence nor join the ranks of celestial soldiers.

In terms of power, even Dao soldiers are hard to match.

Qingyi gave a vague answer.

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing's heart was suddenly resolute.

Since Qing Yi said so, it's possible that the Ancient City itself is a powerful artifact.

Suppressing the shock in her heart.

He and the Overlord Heavenly Sovereign, headed towards the Ancient City.

When Shen Changqing finally arrived at the city gate, he could truly feel the strength of this ancient city. Although a hundred-丈 high city wall might not seem imposing to creatures of all races, the passage of time had left an indelible mark on it, revealing its unyielding power.

At the same time.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

With his keen eyesight, he could tell that there was an extremely powerful formation within the vast ancient city of Taigu.

However, as for the origins and rank of this formation, Shen Changqing couldn't discern anything for the moment.

But there is one point.

He was one hundred percent sure.

The formation in the Ancient City must be no weaker than that of a god master.

Otherwise, with one's own array formations' foundation, it would be impossible to see through much.

"To enter the Ancient City, you must pay ten divine crystals!"

Just as Shen Changqing and the other person were about to enter the Ancient City, they were stopped by a guard's hand.

Ten divine crystals!

>

Shen Changqing's face changed slightly.

It's not that it's too cheap, but rather that it's too expensive.

But now is not the time to be so particular, so I happily handed over twenty Divine Crystals and prepared to enter the ancient city.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

As they were about to enter the city, a guard reminded them, "Remember, it is forbidden to fight within Taigu City. If anyone dares to fight, the Taigu Guards will intervene and suppress them. At best, they will be expelled from Taigu City, and at worst, they will be thrown into the Heavenly Prison."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Besides, from the tenth hour to the first hour in Taikoo City, it is forbidden to appear on the streets. Anyone who violates this will be expelled from the city.

Shen Changqing didn't say anything, and directly entered the ancient city with the Overlord God Monarch.

Entering the city, there was a different scene again.

Although it costs ten divine crystals to enter the ancient city, it is extremely prosperous inside. The cultivators can be seen everywhere, shoulder to shoulder, and there are many powerful ones among them.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

At a mere glance, he discovered numerous divine kings within his sight.

You know.

A powerhouse at the level of a God King, wherever they are placed, they would be a dominant force.

It is not easy to see the Divine King even in ordinary times.

But now.

In Taikoo Li, the presence of the Divine King is ubiquitous.

>“It costs ten divine crystals for a cultivator to enter the city. Considering the vastness of Ancient City, there are at least millions of cultivators within it. Just from the entrance fee alone, Ancient City earns hundreds of millions of divine crystals.”

When Shen Changqing thought of this, he couldn't help but feel deeply shocked.

Make money!

This is really profitable!

Millions of cultivators don't stay in the Ancient City all the time. There are cultivators coming in and out constantly. Just from this aspect, the Ancient City's daily income from entrance fees alone is probably astronomical.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

However.

The Ancient Alliance controlled several ancient eras of the Ancient City. In this way, it goes without saying how wealthy the Ancient Alliance is.

He had already overestimated the Ancient Alliance as much as possible, but now it seems that he still underestimated them.

Take a deep breath.

Shen Changqing calmed his mind.

If one day, the Heavenly Sect's divine city could reach the level of the Primal Alliance, then relying on a single divine city would be enough to sustain the Heavenly Sect without needing to expend any further effort.

>

Aside.

The Overlord God Lord chuckled: "Taigu City is the center of the ancient realm. Powerful cultivators gather here, with treasures appearing frequently. Despite the high entrance fee, it can't stop those cultivators' enthusiasm."

After all, genuine wealthy cultivators wouldn't care too much about ten or twenty spirit crystals.

Even if a monk has no money, coming to the ancient city would be useless.

Here is the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing heard this and nodded deeply in agreement.

Indeed.

The ancient city set a threshold of ten divine crystals, obviously intending to eliminate all weak or penniless cultivators.

"Besides, there is the Taigu Alliance residing in Taigu City. Some cultivators who have incurred powerful enemies and have nowhere to hide can only seek refuge in Taigu City."

The depth of the Primal Alliance's foundation is such that even the Divine Clan would not dare to provoke it lightly.

At last, the Overlord God once again added a sentence.

Shen Changqing nodded again.

That being said.

The prosperity of the ancient city was not without reason.

Simply being able to provide shelter for other cultivators would entice many cultivators who had made powerful enemies to rush into the ancient city.

As for a mere ten Divine Crystals, that's nothing to speak of.

From the hour of Hai onwards, a curfew will be in effect. It is forbidden to linger on the streets. All cultivators entering the city must either leave Taigu City or make arrangements to stay within the city walls.

If the Taigu Alliance were to set up an inn in the city, the profits would be even greater.

Shen Changqing looked at the ancient city in front of him, as if he were looking at a sea of massive divine crystals.

However.

This isn't something everyone can handle.

If one doesn't have absolute strength, other forces will dare to emulate it, or they will either be ignored by cultivators, or be annexed by other forces.

It's a very simple truth.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lacking sufficient strength, yet controlling resources that everyone covets, is essentially courting death.

But the Ancient Alliance did not have such a risk.

One sentence.

The opponent is powerful enough to make all envious forces wary. Before taking action, they must carefully consider their own strength and whether they can withstand the wrath of the Ancient Alliance.

"Sect Master's arrival in the Ancient City, what is the purpose"

The Overlord God couldn't help but ask again.

Shen Changqing said, "I came to the ancient city to find an alchemist."

"Alchemist"

The Overlord Godjun was taken aback. He hadn't expected Shen Changqing to travel thousands of miles to the Ancient City for this.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Next.

Then he thought of something.

“Is it because the Tianzong was newly established and needed an alchemist to preside over the sect that the Sect Master came all the way from thousands of miles away”

You are right.

Shen Changqing candidly admitted that seeking out alchemists was not something shameful.

After receiving the answer, the Heavenly God Sovereign did not say anything.

Here is the translation:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Alchemists in his era had already fallen out of favor. Even the most powerful alchemists could only refine elixirs at the level of a Divine King, far from reaching the standards of a Divine Sovereign.

“But I wonder where the Sage of Dan is!”

Sheng Changqing looked at the vast ancient city and was just about to ask a cultivator for directions when a voice sounded behind him.

"This must be your first time at Taikoo Li!"

Upon hearing this.

Shen Changqing turned to look, just in time to see a young cultivator smiling and standing there.

Upon seeing Shen Changqing's gaze, the young cultivator introduced himself very consciously: "My name is Wang Feng. I have been in Taigu City for some time and am familiar with everything that happens here."

If you have anything you wish to know, just pay a small amount of divine crystals, and I can tell you everything you desire.
