Chapter 257: Chapter 256: Sky-reaching Tower

Under the escort of the Prince of Meteor County.

A group of people crossed five counties.

They arrived at the Royal Capital without any danger.

Along the way, the Prince of Meteor County took great care,

From time to time explaining to everyone about the affairs of the capital.

Xiao Yi listened with great interest, feeling his knowledge greatly expanded.

The Flame Martial Kingdom was vast.

The population of Northern Mountain County alone was over several hundred million.

And there were many places like the Demon Beast Forest, various wilderness, wastelands, and so forth.

Places that Martial Artists normally don’t venture into.

One could imagine, just one county was this vast.

With thirty-six counties, the area was incredibly expansive.

For many ordinary people, even Martial Artists,

It was very possible that they might spend their entire lives unable to leave the county where they lived.

Not to mention coming to the Royal Capital.

Even for the Sword Masters, it was their first time coming to the capital.

Under the city walls of the capital,

Xiao Yi looked at those walls,

Involuntarily drawing in a cold breath.

”Is this the Royal Capital, such a massive wall.”

The wall towered into the clouds.

Xiao Yi looked up continuously towards the sky,

Secretly guessing that the wall might be hundreds of meters high.

The surface of the wall seemed to have a layer of prohibition.

Extremely powerful.

”I’m afraid even Earth Origin Ninth Layer Martial Artists couldn’t shake the wall even slightly,”

Xiao Yi marveled to himself in amazement.

”Stop.”

Just as the group was about to enter the city,

The wide city gate, which was tens of meters wide,

Could easily let a line of carriages enter.

At the side of the city gate, a team of City Guards firmly stood guard.

Observing their Cultivation level, they were uniformly at Mysterious Profundity Ninth Layer.

The leader was a Mystic Breakthrough Realm Martial Artist.

This team of guards stopped Xiao Yi and the group.

”Please show your token.”

”If this is your first time to the Royal Capital, please register.”

”And bring out something that can prove your identity.”

This team of City Guards was very imposing,

But amidst the authority, they were not oppressive,

Instead, they respectfully made a ’please’ gesture.

The Prince of Meteor County stepped forward, showing his token.

”Greetings to Prince Liuu Xing,” all the City Guards saluted him then.

The Prince of Meteor County waved his hand, saying, ”These are the elders and disciples of various counties from the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.”

”And 23 Sword Masters.”

The leading City Guard clasped his hands in courtesy, ”Elders and disciples.”

”Show the Sword Sect token and register, then you may pass.”

The various Sword Sect elders had been to the capital when they were younger.

Naturally, they knew the rules.

They all went with their disciples to register.

Only a few elders from Northern Mountain County looked at each other.

When they were young, they didn’t have the qualifications to practice in the Sword Sect.

So they had never been to the Royal Capital,

Nor did they know the rules.

”Third Elder, come with me,”

When Xiao Yi saw this, he led the elders and disciples from Northern Mountain County to go register.

He didn’t know the procedures either,

But he couldn’t just leave the elders and disciples of Northern Mountain County feeling awkward.

The Third Elder, Ye Ming, and others,

Each took out their Sword Sect token.

And handed it to the registering City Guard.

Unexpectedly, the City Guard receiving the tokens immediately furrowed his brows.

Other elders from the other counties chuckled behind their hands.

”A country bumpkin, haven’t you been to the Royal Capital before?”

The Third Elder and others’ faces darkened with embarrassment.

”What you should first show is the token of your Sect Leader.”

”Not your own disciple token or elder token.”

An elder mocked.

”Ah,” the Third Elder realized.

Before leaving, the Great Elder indeed gave him the Sect Leader’s token.

Although the Northern Mountain County Sky-splitting Sword Sect had no Sect Leader,

The token had always been kept by the Great Elder.

After all the elders and disciples were registered,

The City Guard looked at Xiao Yi.

”And yours?”

Xiao Yi hadn’t responded yet,

The previously mocking elder laughed again,

”He is not from the Sky-splitting Sword Sect, he doesn’t have a token.”

”Hmm?” The City Guard frowned and stared at Xiao Yi.

”Who are you? Without clear identity, you are forbidden to enter the Royal Capital.”

”Why are you wearing a mask?”

The lead City Guard approached,

”If there is no proof of identity, take off the mask.”

”We will sketch your face, and then check the records for comparison.”

”Confirm your identity.”

Xiao Yi shook his head and took out the Demon Hunting Hall token from his sleeve.

”I am Yi Xiao, the Chief Steward of the Northern Mountain County Demon Hunting Hall.”

”Oh?” the leading City Guard said, slightly surprised.

After examining the token and confirming its authenticity,

he respectfully returned the token.

”So, it’s General Executor Yi Xiao. You may pass.”

The attitude of the City Guard changed dramatically.

”Isn’t registration required?” Xiao Yi asked.

”There’s no need,” the City Guard shook his head. ”Please, General Executor Yi Xiao.”

A group of people entered the city.

”What’s going on?” Xiao Yi turned to the Prince of Meteor County and asked.

The Prince of Meteor County smiled and said, ”The Demon Hunting Hall holds a high status across the continent.”

”Real personnel of the Demon Hunting Hall, especially those above the rank of Chief Steward,”

”have certain privileges.”

”Some Chief Stewards may come to the Royal Capital on a mission to report to the Main Hall.”

”The City Guards must not interfere with the Chief Steward’s mission.”

”Nor can they delay it.”

”In short, the privileges of those above the Demon Hunting Hall Chief Steward are substantial.”

”Oh?” Xiao Yi asked, surprised.

He hadn’t expected that even a mere Chief Steward from Northern Mountain County

would have privileges upon arriving at the Royal Capital.

”Surprised?” the Prince of Meteor County said with a smile.

”Let me tell you this, the number of Demon Hunting Hall personnel who die in the Beast Tide each year”

”or Chief Stewards who die while on missions”

”are countless.”

”Every Chief Steward has many merits under their belt.”

”I think, when you first became a Demon Hunter,”

”the guide from the Demon Hunting Hall must have told you,”

”being a Demon Hunter is a profession steeped in both glory and blood.”

”Ordinary City Guards have no authority to question you.”

”I see,” Xiao Yi nodded.

Then, he observed the scenery within the Royal Capital.

The Royal Capital’s first impression on him

was one of strength.

Then, of prosperity.

Extremely prosperous.

In comparison, other counties, even Meteor County, seemed like mere rural towns.

Moreover,

the Royal Capital, although just a city,

was in area, not inferior to an entire county.

In regards to distribution, the important point naturally concerns the divisions among the powers.

At the very center of the Royal Capital was the Royal Palace.

The Royal Palace, the city within the city.

Surrounding it were one sect and two valleys.

It’s worth mentioning that

the Sky-splitting Sword Sect and the Blood Mist Valley were not within the Royal Capital.

They were located on two large mountains neighboring the Royal Capital.

One to the east and the other to the west.

Whereas Medicine King Valley and the Demon Hunting Hall Main Hall

were within the Royal Capital,

right near the Royal Palace.

To get back to the point.

Now, there are about seven days left until the founding day of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.

And only one day left until the Kingdom-wide Alchemy Competition of the Flame Martial Kingdom,

which is tomorrow.

Disciples of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect coming from various counties

actually have their primary mission to participate in the Alchemy Competition.

In the last competition among the Six Counties,

nearly all the top six were Medicine Hall Chiefs from various Sky-splitting Sword Sects.

The top 12 were almost all disciples from the Medicine Halls of various sword sects.

...

”That’s all, I will leave you here,” said the Prince of Meteor County, suddenly stopping.

”There are about seven days until the founding day of the Sky-splitting Sword Sect.”

”During this period, you all can stay at the inn.”

The Prince of Meteor County, having many affairs to attend to in Meteor County,

naturally had to rush back.

”Just a moment, Prince,” Xiao Yi suddenly said.

Then, he pointed to a tall and magnificent building not far away

and asked, ”May I ask, Prince, what is that place?”

The building, with its splendid exterior,

possessed both a robust and profound atmosphere, obviously no ordinary place.

And its height was undoubtedly more than ten floors,

far surpassing the surrounding buildings.

”Oh, that is the Sky-reaching Tower,” replied the Prince of Meteor County.

”It’s the largest commercial institution in the Royal Capital.”

”True to its name, it has the capability to reach the heavens.”

”Even the stars in the sky could be plucked from the heavens with it.”

”As long as one possesses sufficient wealth.”

”One can purchase all the treasures in the world.”

”Oh?” Xiao Yi’s eyes lit up.

...

First release.
