Chapter 8: Civil Engineering is a bit fierce now
More than half an hour later, as the great man from the Supreme Dao Sect completed the inspection, the alarm was lifted.
People came out from the headquarters of various sects and schools one after another.
The owner of a Feijian painting shop was delayed for a while due to some matters. When he came back, he found a lot of people wandering around the door of the shop.
Ok?
Is this a business deal?
However, when he saw the situation inside the store, especially when he saw several people standing next to computers, and some sounds that were not suitable to be played in public came out of the computers...
Who the hell touched the computer?
…………
Xu Xing, who caused all this, has already exchanged spirit stones for some money of this era and is preparing to rent a place to live.
In the city center, there is a building several dozen stories high with a few large characters written on its side - [Sword Sect - Miscellaneous Affairs Hall].
Jianzhou is the largest state under the Jianzong’s rule. There is a branch of the Jianzong’s Miscellaneous Affairs Hall in Xuanjian City, which specializes in handling such matters.
The accommodation rented through the Jianzong Miscellaneous Affairs Hall is relatively more expensive, but the advantage is that the procedures are simple and the efficiency is extremely high.
There were two security guards standing at the gate, one of them had a long sword on his back, and the other had a sword ball floating on his side.
Both of them have reached the Golden Core stage of cultivation, and have a white jade token hanging around their waists, indicating that they are outer disciples of the Sword Sect.
It seems a bit abstract.
There were quite a few people coming in and out, and Xu Xing's entry did not attract anyone's attention.
As one of the seven great immortal sects, the Sword Sect has absolute confidence. No one dares to cause trouble in the Sword Sect, even if it is just a branch of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall.
It was because of the fight between Master Xiaoning and the demonic cultivator just now that they sent out two Jindan sword cultivators to act as security and maintain appearances.
The layout of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall was similar to the service hall in Xu Xing's memory. A huge mysterious mirror was hung above, and various information was flashing rapidly.
Most of the staff behind the service windows around were only at the Qi training and foundation building levels, with only one or two Golden Core stages, and they were all young cultivators. One of them had a place clearly written on it - [Internal Passage for Sword Sect Monks].
This can be considered as a small benefit for the Sword Sect practitioners.
Since there was no one there, Xu Xing walked over directly and took out a green jade token.
"Hello, I want to rent a place to live."
The person in charge of this area is a girl who looks about the same age as Zhang Yunlu. She is also one of the few Jindan here and an outer disciple of the Sword Sect.
[Name: Zuo Yuning]
[Realm: Golden Elixir]
"Okay, please wait a moment. I need to confirm your identity first."
Zuo Yuning took the green jade token and inserted it into a device similar to a card reader. Soon, several lines of text and a photo appeared on the computer screen.
[Name: Xu Sandao]
[Realm: Nascent Soul]
[Position: Outer Gate Division Law Hall Deacon]
It is quite simple information. After all, cultivation is a very personal matter, and the sect will not delve into the disciples.
But...Xu Sandao?
No, uncle, as a Nascent Soul swordsman from the Sword Sect, is it appropriate for you to use such a name?
After complaining in her heart and making sure that the appearance matched the photo, she took out a square machine with a thumb-sized groove in the middle.
"Uncle Master, please inject a little bit of your magic power to confirm my identity."
Xu Xing nodded, raised his hand and injected a magic power of the "Taixu Sword Classic" at the Nascent Soul Realm level.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Ugh? !
Why hasn’t it come out yet? Normally there’s no delay.
Standing up and tapping the computer twice, Zuo Yuning smiled apologetically at Xu Xing: "Please wait a little longer, Uncle Master."
But don’t do that. She doesn’t want anything to go wrong in such an idle position.
Boom!
After two more clicks, some text finally appeared on the computer screen.
"Confirmed." Huh~
Relieved, Zuo Yuning's professional smile reappeared on his face: "Okay, Uncle Master, do you have any specific requirements for your residence?"
“It would be nice if it was quiet and spacious.”
After hearing the request, she screened the information and quickly handed it to Xu Xing.
"How do you think of this place? It is located near a spiritual vein node, with abundant spiritual energy. Moreover, you are a deacon of the Silutang, and according to regulations, the rent can be reduced by 30%."
Xu Xing glanced at it casually: "Okay, this is it."
Hearing his agreement, Zuo Yuning took out three small wooden tablets and a piece of certificate from the drawer, and handed them back to him along with the green jade tablet.
"This is the center of the formation. Uncle Master, please go to the payment counter to pay the fee, and someone will take you there."
"Thank you."
After saying thank you, Xu Xing turned and left.
Watching him walk away, Zuo Yuning sat down and tapped the instrument for identifying magic power.
The world of immortal cultivation has never lacked the means to disguise oneself, not to mention appearance, even the aura of magical power and the fluctuations of the soul can be disguised.
However, this new mana identification system is connected to the supreme ancestral sword. No practitioner can hide the essence of his or her mana in front of the ancestral sword. Logically, it should provide feedback immediately without any delay.
Boom!
After two more times, she seemed to feel that it was about right, so she put the instrument back to its original position.
My master once said that if something is broken, just pat it twice to fix it. If it still doesn’t fix it, it means it is really broken.
…………
In the evening, thick dark clouds covered the entire sky, and muffled thunder sounded from time to time. It seemed that the rain would be heavy.
The Central Continent is extremely vast. The Jianzhou alone is equivalent to the total surface area of dozens of blue stars in the previous life. Therefore, Xuanjian City covers a very large area, comparable to the largest provinces in the previous life.
The most famous residential area in the city, with neatly arranged three-story villas in an orderly manner and a very sophisticated interior layout.
Xu Xing had already signed the contract at this time. He took out the formation center in the shape of a small wooden sign and gently touched it forward.
hum~
Ripples appeared in the air, and a passage opened up in the formation covering the entire villa.
This is a rather crude soul-gathering formation that can only keep away small animals such as cats, dogs, mosquitoes, ants, and mice.
Even a young cultivator in the Qi training stage can break it with brute force.
'It is also equipped with an alchemy room, a weapon refining room, a spiritual spring, a quiet room with a refreshing incense, and other entertainment and leisure facilities.'
"The most important thing is that this place is protected by the Sword Sect. Even the demon cultivator today didn't dare to attack here."
Generally speaking, it is similar to the cave he rented before his retreat, but the comfort level is far higher than that time.
'We'll improve the formation later to prevent anyone from accidentally entering.'
After entering the villa, Xu Xing walked around. There were several diamond-shaped crystals inlaid on the walls of each room. They were the base of the "air conditioning" formation.
It was also created by Shenghuangyuan. It can adjust the temperature within a certain range, but the lower and upper limits are not high, so it is classified as an auxiliary formation.
After walking around, he came to the huge floor-to-ceiling window and saw big raindrops falling and the flowers and plants in the garden swaying in the wind.
Looking up at the sky, I saw flashes of lightning and a storm was about to come.
suddenly!
In the distance, a fist shot up into the sky and directly hit the thick dark clouds in the sky.
In an instant, in the dazzling light, the thick dark clouds were "squeezed" to the edge, just like a circular blank area in the middle of a gray painting with an eraser.
On the TV nearby, a construction team was being interviewed.
"Due to construction needs, we have decided to change the celestial phenomena on a small scale. This move has been approved by the Sword Sect's Miscellaneous Affairs Hall. I hope that all cultivators will not imitate it."
In the picture, there is a man in the distance slowly closing his fist. It seems that what just happened was done by him.
The civil engineering is a bit fierce now.
