Inside the Mortal Dragon Realm, the energy of heaven and earth was much denser than in the outside world. Cultivating here for a day was comparable to cultivating for three to four days outside, so currently, the Azure Dragon Guards had risen another level. Other than the fifty plus adults from the Azure Dragon Guards and the Cultivation Level s, everyone else had reached the first level of Saint Level. As for Luo Bote, who actually did not consume the Essence Returning Pill, and instead cultivated to the level of Second Level of God, Leo was not bad either. A few years ago, when he followed Loong Teng, he was at the early stage of the Fourth Saint realm and now, he had already broken through to the Middle Period of First Level God. From this, it could be seen just how useful the Five Elements Spell was to him.
From Vick Town to Blackrock City, Loong Teng and his group of three hundred plus people sprinted frantically for half a day before arriving. When they approached the Blackrock City, all the pedestrians stopped to watch, although there were Magical Beast Cavalry s that entered and left the Blackrock City from time to time in the Eastern Wind Army, they were all raised by humans, with the highest level being only at the seventh, eighth, and ninth ranks. Furthermore, those that were raised by humans were naturally tamed, unlike Loong Teng's cavalry mount, which was filled with the tyrannical aura of a wild beast.
Loong Teng stood at the entrance of Blackrock City. After all, he did not order them not to bring their troops into the jurisdiction of the other troops, and began to sit on the Flaming Tiger s, sizing up the surrounding environment, the Blackrock City walls were much taller than the Vick Town, reaching thirty meters tall, and entirely made out of a kind of shiny black stone. Each stone was more than ten meters long, and five to six meters tall.
As the city walls in front of Loong Teng faced towards the interior of the Divine Dragon Empire, there were very little wars, so it looked very smooth. The city walls that had been built for a few hundred years looked not too different from when it was first built, and it didn't have that vicissitudes of life.
Of course, the only characteristic that they had was that there were more soldiers wearing armor or cloth armor amongst the pedestrians carrying weapons. These soldiers all looked at Loong Teng's group and looked at the mounts that they were riding on, after a while, they all took in a deep breath, obviously knowing the true identity of these Magical Beast s, and also knew the origins of Loong Teng's group. After all, the three Magical Beast Cavalry s of Blood Armored Division were all in turmoil, and after going through the entire empire, if you hadn't heard of Blood Armored Division before, you would be left behind.
After a while, a group of neatly dressed black tiger cavalry soldiers appeared at the city gate. These cavalry soldiers had black helmets, black armor, black pants, black gloves, bows and arrows on their back, sabers at their waists, and held onto their spears. When this troop appeared, their imposing manner actually formed a whole, pressing down towards Loong Teng's group.
Loong Teng laughed and muttered: "Interesting!" Right now, he had yet to take any action. The main thing he wanted to see was how powerful the legendary black tiger mount was. After all, when Loong Ao had introduced the East Wind Legion to him, he had emphasized the black-clothed tiger cavalry, claiming that they were the top trump card of the East Wind Legion, and there weren't many of them. As long as there were around five or six thousand of them, their mounts were all black devil tigers that were bred using a unique method, and when these devil tigers reached adulthood, they would be able to reach level 9. The East Wind Legion's black clothed tiger rider and the Divine Dragon Legion's Dragon Wolf Cavalry Soldier were both the kings among the Empire's cavalry. One side was a level nine demon tiger, while the other side was a level nine dragon wolf. Of course, since the Dragon Wolf Cavalry Soldier could be described as having higher numbers than the black clothed tiger, they had more than ten thousand people.
"Eh? "Man and beast as one?" Suddenly, Loong Teng discovered something surprising. All these black clad tiger riders had actually reached the highest level of the cavalry, "One with the Beasts". No wonder their auras were so unified just now.
After a period of time had passed, Loong Teng saw that the Flaming Tiger riders, Silver Wolf s, and flying riders beside him were all feeling a little uncomfortable, and immediately waved their hands behind them, causing the auras of the three hundred Saint Level Magical Beast s to suddenly appear. Although the black clothed tiger riders were indeed very powerful, and had reached the "One with the Beasts" realm, due to the natural level difference, the auras of the three hundred Saint Level Magical Beast s that appeared behind Loong Teng were instantly broken.
"Haha, nephew's cavalry is indeed extraordinary. Zi Kang, you should bring the black clad tiger back!" Just at this moment, a candid voice came out from the city gate tower. Loong Teng raised his head and discovered that there was a middle-aged man wearing a robe and a few generals in armor standing on the city gate tower. There were many similarities between Dongfang Qing and the middle-aged man. Loong Teng knew that he should be the commander of the Eastern Wind Corps, General Dongfang Wudi. He was also Dongfang Qing's father, Loong Teng's future father-in-law.
"Yes, Marshal!" A young man clad in black clothes riding on a black tiger spoke to Dongfang Wudi who was riding on the city gate tower.
Looking at the direction the black clad tiger mount disappeared in, he was in a daze. Other than the mounts below him, Loong Teng knew that the difference between the three of his riders and the black clad tiger rider was simply too great, but he was not too sad, after all, his three riders had only been established not more than two months ago. Although Loong Ao had sent dozens of trained riders, these guards and guards all came from the Divine Dragon Legion Dragon Cavalry Soldiers. Although the guards had rich experience in training, but because the training methods they had were mainly aimed at the dragon and wolf and did not match with Loong Teng's three riders, it would take Loong Teng's riders a long time to achieve the "oneness of man and beast".
"Nephew, bring your team in, we want to take a closer look at the power of the empire's most recent limelight, Blood Armored Division!" Once Dongfang Wudi finished, he waved towards Loong Teng and walked inside, ready to get off the city gate stairs.
"Tiger Rider, Wolf Rider, Bird Rider, let's go!" Seeing that Dongfang Wudi had already allowed him to enter the city, Loong Teng shouted.
Loong Teng and Da Peng were at the very front, followed by the twenty five hundred Flaming Tiger s and Silver Wolf s. The hundred birds followed suit and flew at a low altitude. Under Loong Teng's lead, over three hundred people passed through the ten meter wide city wall and entered Blackrock City City. At this time, Dongfang Wudi coincidentally walked down from the city gate tower and walked towards Loong Teng with a smile.
Loong Teng dismounted, stood beside the Flaming Tiger, and bowed as he said, "Marshal, I, Loong Teng, Blood Armored Division Elder, greet you!"
You brat, you've been a Division Master for a few days now. "Haha, no need to be so courteous, no need for formalities. I'm younger than your father, you can just call me Uncle Dongfang!" Dongfang Wudi patted Loong Teng's shoulders and said with a smile. Towards Loong Teng, his future son-in-law, he was the same as Dongfang Rong, and knew that he was definitely a pig that would eat a tiger. Forget about the few God Level Magical Beast beside him, just the three that he had casually produced recently, if he was a simple person, then there would be no complicated people on this continent. Furthermore, the Flaming Tiger beside him was larger than the other Saint Level Flaming Tiger. It was obvious that the level of the Flaming Tiger was God Level without a doubt.
"Haha, alright, Uncle Dongfang!" Loong Teng also followed Dongfang Wudi's instructions, and said to him.
"Eh? Oh my god, since there is a God Level Silver Wolf there? This is? " Dongfang Wudi sized up the rider in front of him once again. Suddenly, he noticed a much larger Silver Wolf than the other Silver Wolf in front of him. On top of the Silver Wolf sat a golden-haired teenager, it was as if he was looking at Loong Teng, and Dongfang Wudi was unable to see through his Cultivation Level.
"Haha, Uncle Dongfang, we have been travelling for an entire day. You won't let us stay here in the sun, right? Let's go back to the back and eat, and chat. " Regarding the Roc's identity, Loong Teng was not prepared to hide it from Dongfang Wudi, but he was not the only one here, so Loong Teng hinted for him to go back first.
"Oh!" "Fine, fine!" Dongfang Wudi was not stupid, he immediately understood Loong Teng's intentions, after all, there were too many people here talking, and it would be better to go back and talk about some things!
Under Dongfang Wudi's lead, Loong Teng and the others slowly moved forward along the streets, discovering that the streets were very wide, it was at least twice as wide as the streets in the bustling cities in the middle. On the streets, there were black slates that were made from the same material as the city walls, maybe it was just people coming and going, or beasts coming and going. It was not that there were not many clothing stores, inns, and gambling shops on both sides of the street compared to the flourishing cities in the central region, but the number of them was very few. No wonder the Celestial Eagle Branch was not operating smoothly here, and they could only change to a water shop.
"Nephew, we are almost there, there are a lot of empty rooms in the manor, I will get someone to bring your cavalry down to rest, but this is the first time we are meeting, we must drink a few cups and get to know each other, haha, after all, we are going to be family soon!" Dongfang Wudi said as he pointed to the front.
"Hehe!" Yes, yes! " Loong Teng discovered that another wall had appeared in front of him. He knew that it was possible that it was the inner city, a place where some of the larger nobles resided, and the residence of the Dongfang Family. Loong Teng did not find it strange, if it was not inside, then it would be strange.
Loong Teng estimated that this city wall was at most fifteen meters tall. Like the outer city, the city wall was filled with armored soldiers who walked and walked about.
walked forward and retrieved a command medallion from the Space Ring and threw it upwards. A moment later, a voice came from above, "Marshal, please go back to your residence. Everyone, open the city gates from the direction of the bridge!"
Crack, Crack
The suspension bridge was slowly lowered down, and Dongfang Wudi rushed forward first, saying, "Nephew, the city gate has already opened, let us go in!"
"En, Uncle Dongfang, let's go!" Brothers behind, follow along! " After speaking to Dongfang Wudi, Loong Teng turned around and shouted to the convoy that was following him for a few hundred meters.
Once again passing through the city gates, they entered the inner city and found that the difference between the inner city and the outer city was too great. Although the streets were not as wide as the outer city, but the pedestrians on the streets were all dressed very extravagantly, and the two sides of the streets were not too different from the bustling city in the center. There was not a single water shop or weapon shop, but there were still many clothing shops, high class inns, and shops. And what was shocking was that there were rows of green plants along the way, which was very hard to see in the outer city. If not for the abnormally dry air around him, he would have thought that he had returned to the imperial city. Green plants, this was the only place with Town in the vicinity of large and small cities, and it was also the only place with Town. After all, in the outside world, commoners might not even be able to satisfy their daily needs.
"Nephew, how are things here? It's not too different from the capital, right? " Dongfang Wudi realized that Loong Teng was looking at his surroundings in shock and laughed.1
"Hehe, it is indeed very shocking, it is hard to imagine that there are actually green plants here, this is the first time I have seen green plants in the Blackrock City area after entering for more than a month!" Loong Teng lamented.
"To maintain these plants, every year the cost of water attribute Magic Core s would exceed several million. Of course, as long as there is a house in the inner city, every year, there would be a special green category fee to maintain. The total number of people in the inner city is only around thirty thousand, and every person has to pay a few hundred purple gold coins per year in order to survive here. However, those who are able to come here basically do not put this purple gold in their eyes, so for the past few hundred years, this place has always maintained the only green color of the Blackrock City. " Dongfang Wudi touched the big tree beside him and said with deep emotion.
Loong Teng nodded, raising his head to look at the green leaves, he thought: "A tree definitely consumes a lot more water than a person! Anyway, compared to me, water is indeed nothing valuable. On one hand, I don't need Magic Core, and on the other hand, I don't need any Water Mages. "
"Alright, nephew, let's return to the manor!" Dongfang Wudi patted the big tree and continued speaking.
At this time, Old Steward was standing at the entrance with a few people. At the first glance, they saw Dongfang Wudi bringing a group of Loong Teng and walking over, and immediately walked over with a smile.
"Old Yun, instruct a few people to call the three hundred warriors of the Blood Armored Division over. Give us another good meal, I want to drink it with my nephew today!" Dongfang Wudi respected Dongfang Yun, who had already been a housekeeper for two generations of Dongfang Family.
"Yes, young master!" I'm going to instruct them! At that time, Loong Teng promised me that he would come to Blackrock City immediately, but unexpectedly, he made us wait for more than a month, we must drink a few more cups later! " Suddenly, his eyes swept across the Roc and he discovered that another young man, whom he could not see through, had appeared. Furthermore, this young man had not appeared by Loong Teng's side the last time, and had appeared from nowhere right now.
A few guards started to call for the three hundred cavalrymen who had already kept their mounts inside the Magic Pet space, while Dongfang Wudi brought Dong Fang Yun, Loong Teng, Da Peng and the others to the great hall. Da Peng was originally not planning to come, but Loong Teng thought that it would be better if he followed him as there would be some matters that would involve him later.
After a short while, Old Steward Dongfang Yun had already begun to call for the maids to bring the dishes over. Although Dongfang Wudi didn't know why Loong Teng had to bring the Da Peng over, since he had done this, there must be some sort of meaning.
Sit down!" We'll eat and chat at the same time! " Although Dongfang Wudi was a Marshal and had a few hundred thousand troops under his command, he was like Loong Ao who was a pure soldier. In front of his own people, he did not put on any sort of show and directly invited Loong Teng and Da Peng to sit.
After a while, everyone drank a few cups of wine. Dongfang Wudi began to talk more, and said, "Young nephew, to be honest, I am really jealous of your three thousand Magical Beast Cavalry s. Tsk tsk, the three thousand Saint Level Magical Beast s are much more powerful than my black devil tiger, which is only a level nine Cultivation Level. Perhaps in the near future, the strength of the three thousand cavalrymen you have will definitely far surpass my Black Robe Tiger Cavalry and my Dragon Wolf Cavalry Soldier from Divine Dragon Legion.
