625 To Do Things Without Looking at the Location Is a Road to Disaster (1/2)

Shu Si had never seen such a vast world.

In Plentiful City, the teenager was used to the amazing means of cultivators. Once they were fortunate to see a righteous cultivator slaying an evildoer, the fire talisman burning half of the sky. However, regardless of which, it was really difficult to compare with what he saw this time.

”This is the real means of immortals.” The teenager swallowed hard and then rubbed his eyes hard.

For a long time, he thought that the square around the big stone gate in the center of Plentiful City was already magnificent enough—it occupied more than ten square miles, could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, and the ground was neat and clean just like a bright mirror.

However, it paled in comparison to the situation in the group of immortal tombs.

The place where Shu Si stood was a spotlessly white flawless high ground. The entrance was on that high ground, and after which, there were long steps that went down all the way to a square. The square was very vast, just like a brand new and independent world. The ground was made of a fine jade slab. Looking at it, there was no trace of any crack within tens of miles.

This was a huge jade that could not exist in Nine Regions. It was so huge and vast that the crowd that was originally packed like sardines in Plentiful City unexpectedly seemed to be sparsely scattered in the square.

At the end of the square, there was also a daunting huge shadow that blotted out the sky.

Shu Si swallowed his saliva and guessed that it was the thing that made people flock into this place, the City of Immortals.

”Are Deadface, Old Black Clothing, and Peach Blossom Wife going there?”

While thinking about it, Shu Si walked down the steps quickly. He was very nimble, and his steps were light, but after all, he was just an ordinary mortal. He only saw, from time to time, people flying as fast as lightning passing him. There were more who, as soon as they passed through the gate, directly flew to the sky, leaving only a black dot over the horizon in the twinkling of an eye.

Shu Si was inwardly quite envious. If only he could have an immortal fate here and learn to come and go as they please like those people. Thinking of this, he became more determined in going down the steps, fantasizing if there was one of those able people who would suddenly take a liking to him.

Walking on that spotlessly white glorious square, Shu Si was excited at the beginning but cooled down very quickly.

After walking for two hours, he changed from fast walk to slow trot, and Shu Si felt that his legs were somewhat worn out and aching. However, his destination, the City of Immortals, was still out of reach. Looking back, the huge stone gate seemed to be so far away.

Looking around, those cultivators who showed their magical abilities could no longer arouse his excitement—in fact, there was nothing to be excited about. He had seen much in Plentiful City.

Once again, two hours went by—more or less. There was no sun in the group of immortal tombs, thus, Shu Si could only estimate the time. In short, when his stomach began to scream, he was still far from his destination.

Finally, the teenager became somewhat depressed. The group of immortal tombs was indeed not a place where ordinary mortals should come. It was said that there were endless delicious food, as well as warm and bright bedrooms, but… for mere ordinary mortals, even walking into the City of Immortals would be extremely difficult.

Shu Si stopped and looked around. He saw that not far ahead, there was a group of starving refugees who simply pitched a camp at the square. The smoke from the kitchen rose high to the sky.

In his heart, Shu Si admired the courage of these people—building a kitchen camp in such a sacred place and not afraid of being beheaded by a cultivator. However, on the other hand, the teenager was also very hungry.

He had more than ten cultivator's mustard seed bags, but he didn't bring any dry food… Thus, he could not help but feel hungry. When Shu Si thought of this, a flash of light suddenly passed through his mind.

The next moment, he held up a mustard seed bag then boldly shouted, ”Would anyone like to give me a ride? Would express my thanks with this!”

While shouting, Shu Si felt that he must be crazy.

Generally speaking, cultivators rarely responded to the call of ordinary mortals. However, this time, as soon as Shu Si's voice fell, he was enveloped by a huge shadow from the sky. Then, a big black bird slowly descended while flapping its wings. On its back, a man with a face full of sideburns in the form of a small net stared at the mustard seed bag in Shu Si's hand with big, copper-bell-like eyes.

”You want someone to give you a ride? In exchange for this mustard seed bag?”

Watched by the man's imposing gaze, Shu Si 's neck almost shrank. ”Y-Yes.”

The bird-riding man nodded. ”Come on up.”

Shu Si was startled, but then he quickly grabbed the rough and stiff feathers on the black bird's neck. He agilely climbed up, leaned behind the big man, and firmly planted his ass on the bird's back.

The big man looked back at him and laughed. ”What a clever kid, your position is actually right! Sit tight!”

Shu Si inwardly said, If you really like my cleverness, then you should take me as your disciple. Although half of your body is in animal skin, your black bird riding crotch could not be compared to those white-robed sword cultivators who rode flying swords. Well, since we can meet, then it's fate. I'm really not that picky.

Unfortunately, after that, the big man said no more. He just grabbed the black bird's feather, which caused it to scream a strange scream, and flew straight back to the sky. When the bird took off, it caused a strong wind pressure, which made Shu Si uncomfortable and almost gasp for breath.

This was the first time Shu Si experienced flying. Although he was somewhat afraid of heights, he still could not hold back his excitement.

This was his first immortal fate. To him, the bird riding uncle was really a good person. Not only the uncle did not ask him the origin of the mustard seed bag, but it was also really kind of him to take him on a flight. Although Shu Si also knew that this was not a profitable deal for the uncle, since they could meet, then it must be fated.

All the way, they did not exchange any words. The giant bird flew swiftly in the clouds and soon crossed the spotlessly white square. Finally, they arrived in front of the City of Immortals.
