Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 856 - 854 Jianmu City

Chapter 856: Chapter 854 Jianmu City

So, Tang San simply marched in an imperial manner straight down the main road towards Jianmu City.

On the main road, there were indeed some Spirit Monsters as Tang San had expected. Seeing his blue skin and the eight blue vines that Tang San purposefully released behind his back, none of the Spirit Monsters found it strange. At most, they took another glance before continuing on their own way.

Tang San concealed his aura and followed the other Spirit Monsters towards Jianmu City.

As he drew nearer, he saw that in front of this city without walls, various vines were coiling around a row of huge trees which served as a barrier. The passage allowed in this direction was only between the center of two massive trees that were more than one thousand five hundred meters tall.

It seemed that the guards responsible for defending the city lived on these large trees. During the process of queuing to enter the city, Tang San also saw guards sliding down from the trees to change shifts with those guarding below.

...

These guards were of the Plant-class. With Tang San’s knowledge of plants, they should be some kind of tree spirits. Their whole bodies were dark and lustrous, their trunks cylindrical, their limbs long and slim, and the ends of their arms were sharp spikes, with their heads also pointed, vaguely exuding a sharp aura.

What kind of tree was that? After all, Tang San lacked some understanding of the Rihchen Empire. Previously, when studying at Redemption Academy, most of his learning was about the Monsters.

Higher-ranked Monsters could almost transform into the appearance of Humans, and although Spirit Monsters could do the same, the appearance of ordinary Spirit Monsters was vastly different from that of Humans. Therefore, most of the areas where the Redemption Organization operated were within the Tianyu Empire.

Tang San did not ponder too much about these unknown guardians. From his perception, most of these Spirit Monsters were around Third Stage in strength, and the leader of the guard was only at the Fourth Stage. Not very strong. But their physical strength was indeed very good.

Spirit Monsters needed to pay a certain fee to queue into the city. Tang San observed that what they paid was mostly Energy Ore or medicinal ingredients, unlike the common currency used in the Tianyu Empire. Just from this point, the Rihchen Empire seemed to be a bit more backwards than the Tianyu Empire.

Soon, it was Tang San’s turn. Just as Tang San was about to take out an ordinary piece of ore to blur the line, the guards who saw him suddenly changed.

All guards looked at Tang San, first stunned, then immediately stood straight, raising their spike-like arms above their heads.

“Greetings, my lord.” Upon hearing this, Tang San was also startled.

Those Spirit Monsters behind Tang San who also wanted to enter the city were immediately surprised and raised their own hands. Of course, if what they had could be called hands. In any case, they were limb-like structures.

Tang San was experienced and, though surprised, reacted immediately. He just gave a cold snort and strode into the city.

Although he didn’t know what was happening, it was clear that within Jianmu City, there must be creatures similar to his appearance, otherwise, the guards would not have such a reaction. Moreover, their status must be quite high.

Indeed, the guards watched Tang San enter the city, always holding their arms aloft, but without any intention of interception.

Entering Jianmu City, Tang San’s first sensation was complete comfort. The life force energy inside the city was not only extremely rich but also thriving. It was the vitality of newborn life, full of wonderful feelings. Absorbing this life force into his body, Tang San could feel his own vital signs rapidly rising.

His divine consciousness advanced faster than his cultivation base, so his divine consciousness would naturally drive his body’s evolution. Relatively speaking, after reaching the God Rank, it was more difficult to enhance one’s divine consciousness.

At this moment, in a world filled with rich life force, Tang San’s divine consciousness was almost instinctively drawing vast amounts of life energy into his body, nourishing his bloodline. Although for his current cultivation base, such nourishment wasn’t markedly beneficial, it undoubtedly still had a continuous positive effect on his body.

Upon entering the city gates, there was a street as wide as a hundred meters, flanked by giant trees on both sides. Although they were not as massive as those in front of the city gates, the canopy of the giant trees still completely covered the hundred-meter-wide street below. Under the noonday sun, the sunlight filtered through the green leaves, casting a layer of verdant light halos on the street, creating a peculiar sight.

What a wonderful place this is!

Tang San couldn’t help but inwardly exclaim in admiration, as he continued to walk forward.

The soldiers recognized him as a member of the transformed Monster Race, but the ordinary Spirit Monsters in the city seemed unfamiliar with him. After entering the city, there were no particular glances directed at Tang San. He was happy with this and headed deeper into the city.

After walking through the several-kilometer-long tree-lined avenue, what came into view were countless wooden houses. Most of these houses were built against trees, but the tallest trees were on the outer edge, acting like city walls. The inside trees weren’t as tall, but they were still exotic and varied, with many unfamiliar to Tang San.

Here, the Plant-class creatures of the Monster Race were predominant. They were truly diverse, each with distinct auras. However, on the whole, there weren’t many powerful beings, with most beings being at most Seventh or Eighth Stage.

Not having encountered any powerful creatures, Tang San naturally made some judgments. Perhaps the status of Jianmu City in the Rihchen Empire was similar to that of Jiali City in the Tianyu Empire.

This was fine; not having too many powerful creatures around was a good thing for him. After all, even if there was an Emperor-ranked presence behind the main city, Emperors would typically stay at the Ancestral Court to cultivate and might not necessarily be in their own main city.

But it was still necessary to find a way to obtain some information about this city.

With that in mind, Tang San headed towards the city center.

The area of Jianmu City was also quite vast. In Tang San’s perception, it was even larger than Jiali City. However, overall, this place was relatively underdeveloped. The Rihchen Empire did not need to worry about agriculture, as fostering plants was incredibly easy for them. But when it came to industry, there was a clear deficit.

Many of the tools used by the Spirit Monsters here seemed primitive and were mostly made of wood. Of course, the wood here could be just as strong as metal, if not stronger.

When Tang San walked into the inner part of the city, after more than an hour, he saw a city wall. When he saw this city wall, his eyes went wide.

It was a golden city wall, yes, golden. The wall itself emitted a soft golden glow, such that the surrounding area was bathed in a golden light.

There was a river outside the city wall, a city moat. The water was also golden, formed by liquid that dripped down from the golden wall.

This…

Tang San’s eyes widened, and he stood motionless for a long time.

What is this? The wall, this wall is entirely made of Golden Wood! Moreover, it is made of dead Golden Wood, not the type that grows from roots. It seemed that these were at least a thousand years old, at least Eighth Stage cultivation base Golden Wood that was cut down and used to build this wall.

How much Golden Wood would be needed for such a vast wall? And the water in the city moat derived from the Golden Wood, condensed and formed into the Water of Life, which is the liquid manifestation of immensely concentrated life energy.
