Chapter 27: Immortal City Ordinances
ind what you need. When you're done, just call me directly. Don't just stand there like a log." The hunched old man waved his hand, then carefully put the black scales back on, signaling for Lu XiaTia...Inside the grand and mysterious mountain manor, a burly middle-aged man with a commanding presence suddenly swept his palm. The thick, pure gold chair beside him sank in at the point of contact, demonstrating the immense strength of this man's hand.
"Second brother, it seems that Jing'er should have fallen into this person's hands. What should we do next" Situ Ming asked beside him. He hadn't seen his elder brother get so angry in a long time.
“The revenge of killing one's son is shared by heaven. I must personally kill this person, or else I can't erase the hatred in my heart!” Si Tu Yong said with bloodshot eyes.

"I'm going to Moon Viewing Immortal City with my second brother!" Si Tu Ming said.
"No need, third brother," Si Tu Yong shook his head. "We still have enemies in Wang Yue Xian City. Although Liang Zhou is a bit poor, the spiritual herbs it produces are enough for you and Xian'er to cultivate for now. I'm going to Wang Yue Xian City, my future is uncertain, so the responsibility of the family's future will be handed over to you."
"Second Brother...." Situ Ming's voice choked with sobs.

On the way west to Da Liang Guo, perhaps because they were getting closer to望月城, more and more stories about immortals spread among the common people.
For example, there's a scholar who went to the capital to take the imperial examinations. On his journey, he encountered a fox fairy in a ruined temple. After passing the exams, he became successful and lived happily ever after with the fox fairy.

Above a certain Taoist temple, five-colored auspicious clouds appeared. A white-haired Taoist priest rode the clouds on a crane and left.
In a certain river, a water spirit caused havoc among the fishermen on both banks. Later, a black-robed immortal arrived by riding clouds and with one sword stroke split open the river, killing the water spirit before disappearing into the clouds again.
Ling stones could actually enter this mysterious Qingguo barrier. Lu Xia Tian looked at the spirit stones on the ground, feeling a sense of surprise. On his way to Daliang Kingdom, he practiced various spells while traveling.
By chance, while holding a spirit stone and pondering how to enhance the power and attack speed of his spells, Lu Xiaoteng's divine consciousness unknowingly entered the mysterious space within his body. To his astonishment, he discovered that the spirit stone had also been brought in.
Uncertain if he could get it out, Lu Xia Tian tried again. The spirit stone was taken out once more. This discovery filled him with joy.
Could this mysterious space be like a storage pouch, able to bring in and out things with spiritual energy
So he experimented again, using shadow ants, purple spirit grass, and beast fur. He found that living beasts could not be brought in, but the purple spirit grass and beast fur could.
It's a pity that I don't have any talismans on hand, otherwise I could give it a try. Thinking of talismans, Lu Xia Tian's eyes lit up.
"Hey, good apprentice, why did you disappear for several months and didn't talk to me I haven't absorbed any spiritual energy these past few months. What have you done"

"My abilities are limited, and I don't know any spells. I can't find enough spiritual beings to help me, so I can only rely on myself to cultivate. Naturally, there isn't much spiritual energy left."
Hearing the hoarse voice of the old man in black robes, Lu Xia Tian hurriedly took out the Purple Spirit Grass to avoid being discovered by the old man in black robes.
"This is truly troublesome. Why don't you just let me out Confining me here all day, and even consuming your spiritual energy, it's not worth it for you at all." The old man in black robe said.
“Dreaming!” Lu Xia Tian said coldly, ending his conversation with the cloaked old man.
“Hey, hey, don’t leave, stay and talk to me.” The black-robed elder called out several times, but there was no response. The black-robed elder felt discouraged and drifted away on his own, looking for a possible exit.
“Waiter, ten catties of mutton, a pot of rice wine, and some good feed for my horse.”
Lu Xiaitian walked into a tavern, sat at a table by the wall and ordered. After months of travel, he had finally arrived in Daliang Country. He had been on the road for several months, enduring wind and rain. The journey to望月城 was still unknown, so he decided to treat himself well.
“Alright, sir, just a moment,” the shop assistant shouted as he came forward to pour tea, warmly saying, “You look like you’ve traveled far and wide. Are you going to Moonlit Immortal City”
"How did you know" Lu Xia Tian's face paled.
"Don't worry, sir. Every year, many people pass by this small shop on their way to Moon Viewing Immortal City. There are worldly martial artists and cultivators alike. However, martial artists coming from the east need to travel in groups to resist bandits and wild beasts. Someone like you, traveling alone, must be a powerful cultivator. Besides, you ordered ten catties of mutton and a pot of wine. An ordinary mortal wouldn't have such an appetite," explained the young waiter.
"A worldly martial artist also goes to Look at the Moon Immortal City Isn't that a place where cultivators gather Are you familiar with Look at the Moon City" Lu Xia Tian asked in surprise.
"You're joking, sir. I'm just an ordinary person who has never left the county. How could I know anything about Moon Viewing City It's just that I've met many travelers over the years, so I know a little bit. What Moon Viewing Immortal City is like, I don't know for sure, but every year quite a few worldly martial artists go in and out. Occasionally, I hear those who come back talking about it. There are also many martial artists inside Moon Viewing Immortal City who do some menial tasks for the immortals in hopes of receiving guidance, or some are relatives of immortals, family members. You have to know that the immortal path is unpredictable, and those who can cultivate immortals are rare, not every immortal's family member has the fate of becoming an immortal, so there are occasional connections with the mortal world."
"I see." Lu Xia Tian nodded. The shop boy was right. If he hadn't been taken away by the old man in black robes, he would probably still be doing chores at Le Dao Sect. As for his family, they were ordinary farmers, not even warriors.
The shopkeeper said, “Looks like you haven’t been to Xian Yuan City before. It's about twenty miles northwest from here. There’s a rumor that there’s a wine-loving immortal selling maps to Wang Yue Immortal City. If you’re interested, you can give it a shot.”
"Thank you for reminding me, little brother." Lu Xia Tian bowed.
This is a response to your request.
"It's alright, it's alright. Sir, you are too kind."
Upon receiving the reminder, Lu Xiaotian rode his horse towards the direction indicated by the shopkeeper after filling his stomach. After riding nearly twenty miles, he didn't see a single person. If it weren't for the fact that there was only one road in this direction, he would have almost thought that he had either taken the wrong path or that the shopkeeper was making things up. However, when he thought about it again, it shouldn't be the case. The shopkeeper was an ordinary person and had no reason to deceive him out of the blue.
Burp-----
Just when Lu XiaTian hesitated, a burping sound came from the grass bushes dozens of feet away. Following the sound, he saw a plump man climb out of the knee-high grass. He looked like a round and chubby Buddha statue. A large black gourd hung around his waist, and his round little eyes made him appear quite shrewd despite his obesity.
“Hey, you're at the second level of Qi refinement. Young brother, are you going to Moonlit Immortal City”
A stout man stumbled out of the bushes.
“Good, I’m heading to Moon Viewing Immortal City. What are your thoughts” The small waiter said this well, the other party's spiritual pressure was stronger than his, at least a cultivator of the third level of Qi Refining. To actually sleep in the grass, with a mouthful of alcohol.
“I dare not accept such praise. My name is Zhu Yinhua. Though I have cultivated for several decades, I have only reached the third layer of Qi Refinement. Unlike you, brother, who at a young age has already come close to my level. Your future achievements are limitless, and becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator seems imminent. Is this your first time visiting Moon Viewing City from the secular world” After Zhu Yinhua complimented him with a smile, he asked.
"Exactly." Lu XiaTian nodded.
“Excellent, Zhu某 has been waiting for someone like you, a kindred spirit.” Zhu Yinhua patted his thigh and said seriously, “Zhu某 feels that his aptitude is shallow and he has no connection to the Immortal Path. After much soul-searching, he decided to contribute a small amount of effort to the prosperity and development of the cultivation world, specifically to guide people like you who have never been to望月仙城.”
“Then thank you, Brother Zhu. May I ask how to get to the Immortal City” Lu XiaTian automatically filtered out everything Zhu YinHua said before and asked.
“Good question, little brother. What do you see”
Zhu Yinhua took out scrolls one by one from the storage compartment, as well as a book, and then introduced them skillfully, “See this As the saying goes, there are national laws for a country, and family rules for a family. This望月 Xiancheng is the largest gathering place for our scattered immortals. To manage tens of thousands of scattered cultivators within the city, naturally, there is a set of regulations for 望月 City. If you violate the rules, you will be lightly whipped, severely deprived of your cultivation base, and even killed on the spot by the law enforcement team in the city. So this book of regulations for 望月 City must be kept in mind to avoid trouble!”
Lu XiaTian listened to Zhu YinHua's serious words, nodding repeatedly, then asked, "What about this scroll"
"That's a good question. This scroll becomes even more important. The city planning of Moon Viewing City, if you memorize it well, avoiding offenses in your daily life is relatively easy. But this scroll is even more crucial. Why has Moon Viewing Immortal City become a gathering place for scattered cultivators It's because of the countless spiritual herbs, spirit stones, and demonic beasts within the Moon Viewing Mountains. But the Moon Viewing Mountains are also fraught with danger, especially for us low-ranking Qi Refining cultivators. There are places you can go and places you cannot. A slight misstep could lead to encountering a powerful demonic beast and losing your life. Little brother, if you want to obtain spiritual items while ensuring your safety, this map of the Moon Viewing Mountains is essential."

“This copy of the Xiancheng Regulations only costs one low-grade spirit stone. As for this map scroll, it costs three low-grade spirit stones. You can also exchange it with equivalent spiritual herbs or spirit beast fur.” After finishing his words, Zhu Yinhua looked at Lu Xiaitian expectantly.

Lu Xiaitian hesitated for a moment, thinking that the Zilingcao was still useful to him, so he took out a piece of demon tiger fur from his storage bag and said, "Can this fur do"
"This tiger skin is still relatively intact, but you haven't processed it. The spiritual energy has leaked severely, so its value isn't high. I can only offer one low-grade spirit stone for it. Do you have any other spiritual objects" Zhu Yinhua asked.
"Nothing." Lu Xiaitian saw Zhu Yinhua's flickering eyes and felt that this person was somewhat sly. Although he wanted this Book of Xiancheng Regulations and the map scroll, he still planned to bluff this fat man first.

This is the end of a paragraph.y, the purple mist in the palm would condense into a drop of purple liquid which would fall down. Lu Xia Tian took out a small bottle and caught the purple liquid inside. 。Zhu Qi was alone inside, di...
