Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1466: Chapter 1466: The Great Sun City

After a Martial Artist successfully establishes their Foundation, they will develop Divine Sense. By integrating a strand of Divine Sense into their blood essence and placing it into a hollow Fire Spirit Stone, then sealing it, a "Soul Lamp" is created.

The Martial Artist and the Soul Lamp are connected by the Heaven and Earth Dao.

As long as the Martial Artist lives, the Soul Lamp remains lit.

If the Martial Artist dies, the Soul Lamp extinguishes on its own.

Every Sect in the Spirit Martial Realm will establish a dedicated Soul Hall to store the Soul Lamps of their Foundation Establishment Realm disciples. The extinguishing of any disciple’s Soul Lamp signifies their demise.

Shortly after Shen Zhenhai was blasted to death by Fang Bai, the Soul Lamp belonging to him, stored within the Nine Heavens Palace’s Soul Hall, flickered a few times and slowly went out.

The disciple guarding the Soul Hall saw that an Elder had fallen and was greatly alarmed, hastily reporting the matter to Palace Master Shentu Cheng.

Upon learning of his brother’s demise, Shentu Cheng was furious and roared in anger, vowing to avenge his brother.

The next day, Shentu Cheng left Nine Heavens Palace, intending to personally go to Flaming Sun City to find the culprit. Before leaving, he gritted his teeth and said to the palace’s upper echelon, "Calculating the time, my brother should have been close to Flaming Sun City, so the place where he perished should be near Flaming Sun City. Moreover, an Elder of the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion in Flaming Sun City has deep ties with our Nine Heavens Palace. I will ask him to help find the killer when I arrive there! I can’t believe that with the influence of the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion in Flaming Sun City, they won’t be able to find the killer!"

......

Fang Bai naturally didn’t know that killing Shen Zhenhai would attract the attention of Nine Heavens Palace Master Shentu Cheng, a Foundation Establishment perfection expert, and could potentially involve the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion, one of the two major Sects in Flaming Sun City.

The group consisting of a dozen or so left early in the morning and arrived outside Flaming Sun City by dusk, covered in dust from their journey without a moment of rest, nearly exhausting their Wind-Chaser Steeds to the point of foaming at the mouth.

Within Flaming Sun City, Sects are in abundance, and factions form a dense network. Yet, the only real authorities are the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion and the Golden Sword Sect.

These two major Sects occupy the eastern and western parts of the city, avoiding conflict, and jointly govern Flaming Sun City, maintaining its safety and stability.

The two major Sects have comparable strength, each with their own fortes.

The Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion is home to several Alchemists who are renowned for their Spirit Pill refinement.

The Golden Sword Sect hosts several Artifact Refiners who are praised for their Spiritual Artifacts.

The largest two Martial Artists Trading Markets in Flaming Sun City are each established by the two major Sects. In these markets, any cultivation resources can be traded, with the two Sects taking a small commission from each transaction.

No one knows exactly when Flaming Sun City was established, but over the years it has grown into the most bustling and lively city within tens of thousands of miles. Martial artists residing in the city number in the millions, with countless more traveling north and south daily.

Flaming Sun City has two gates: east and west. The eastern gate is guarded by disciples of the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion, while the western gate is guarded by disciples of the Golden Sword Sect. Incoming martial artists must pay one Holy Grade Spirit Stone each to be allowed entry.

"As it’s already late today, going to the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion will have to wait until tomorrow. Where do you plan to stay tonight, Lingxu Palace?"

Medicine King Mountain’s steward, Mo Xinghuo, inquired.

"Guest Arrival!"

Lingxu Palace’s steward, Ren Tianfu, replied sullenly.

The Ren brothers had already discussed that, due to the exhausting journey over thousands of miles without rest, the disciples were somewhat fatigued and planned to first stay in an inn. In the morning, they would then seek out Palace Master Li Sanfu, as well as Elders Wu Zhihua and Sun Jing.

Mo Xinghuo laughed heartily and said, "What a coincidence, we’re also planning to stay at the ’Guest Arrival’ inn!"

"Guest Arrival" is a top-tier luxurious inn established by the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion, capable of accommodating ten thousand martial artists at once. However, due to the high cost, typically only disciples of large Sects and powerful loose cultivators can afford to stay, while smaller Sect disciples and moderately powerful loose cultivators generally cannot.

Though Medicine King Mountain and Lingxu Palace may not be considered major Sects within the Spirit Martial Realm, they have been established for a long time with deep foundations, so even if the inn’s fees are high, they can afford it.

Including Fang Bai, more than a dozen martial artists rode their Wind-Chaser Steeds through Flaming Sun City’s eastern gate, weaving through streets and alleys, and arrived directly in front of the "Guest Arrival" inn entrance.

"Guest Arrival" is built on Lake Heart Island, a large lake to the east of the city. Surrounded by mountains and water, the inn boasts picturesque scenery and abundant spiritual energy. The architecture is impressive and arranged harmoniously.

The disciples of Medicine King Mountain and Lingxu Palace paid for ten days’ accommodation and, led by disciples of the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion, entered Lake Heart Island and were directed to their own rooms.

The disciples of Medicine King Mountain and Lingxu Palace stayed in adjacent areas, each having individual courtyards, with refined and tranquil environments.

In fact, Fang Bai had visited Flaming Sun City during his past life’s travels in the Spirit Martial Realm, having some impression of this great city. However, his memories were from tens of thousands of years ago.

At that time, Flaming Sun City seemed to have only a few million people and was far less bustling than it is today. Over tens of thousands of years, with the vicissitudes of time, the battle of the stars, everything in this great city has changed tremendously, making it almost unrecognizable to him.

In his past life, Fang Bai had only hurried through Flaming Sun City. He recalled that at that time, the Alchemy Cauldron Pavilion and Golden Sword Sect seemed relatively unknown, but now they’ve risen to prominence, with Golden Core Realm experts presiding over both as major Sects.

The large lake and Lake Heart Island where "Guest Arrival" is situated likely did not exist tens of thousands of years ago. They may have appeared after significant changes in the world.

The lake surrounding Lake Heart Island is planted with innumerable water attribute Spiritual Medicines, making the water spirit qi in the area more dense and abundant than in other regions.

The courtyard where Fang Bai and others stayed faced the eastern lake. The dense and abundant water spirit qi swirled without dissipating, continuously nourishing those within the courtyard.

After settling in, everyone only needed a moment of breathing exercises to dispel the fatigue from their long journey over thousands of miles, rejuvenating themselves and feeling immeasurably comfortable.

Each small courtyard in "Guest Arrival" is equipped with a spirit stone platform for martial artists to sit cross-legged on for cultivation.

That night, Fang Bai did not enter the room, instead sitting cross-legged on the spirit stone platform in the courtyard to cultivate.

He activated the five-color Lotus Platform within his Qi Sea to move slowly, causing nature’s spiritual energy to surge madly into his body from within a radius of several miles around him, resulting in a celestial phenomenon that alarmed many strong practitioners within Flaming Sun City.

These strong practitioners, wielding Spiritual Artifacts, flew to the airspace near "Guest Arrival" to see just who this extraordinary individual might be, causing such a commotion during cultivation.

However, before these strong practitioners could arrive, Fang Bai would promptly conceal his aura so that they couldn’t precisely locate his courtyard. Only after they left did he continue his cultivation.

Lingxu Palace Master Li Sanfu, along with Elders Wu Zhihua and Sun Jing, had arrived in Flaming Sun City several days ago. Yet despite Fang Bai’s Divine Sense diffusing over almost ten miles, he did not detect their presence, speculating that the three were in other areas of the city. noveldrama

Flaming Sun City spans nearly a thousand miles. With Fang Bai’s current cultivation level, his Divine Sense falls far short of covering the entire city, making it quite difficult to locate a few individuals within.
