《The Demon's Gate》Chapter 61: Eternal Stream City.
Advertisement
Chapter 61: Eternal Stream City. After Yao Jun and Guo Luo spent a few days flying, during the evening they spotted a medium sized city in the distance. The city was built at the foot of a mountain, half the city built on the slope of the mountain. Yao Jun immediately started examining the city from the air before he got closer. The lower part of the city was built using simple wood, none of the buildings being taller than one floor. The roofs seemed to be made out of a mixture of earth and dried grass, it seemed like the lower parts were where the poor lived. A long stream flowed past the lower part of the city, a myriad of boats and houses placed along the shore, so it seemed like they used fishing as a source of income. As the buildings started moving up the mountain, they slowly got more luxurious, the buildings going from being made out of wood to being made out of stone, at the highest part of the city, the buildings were made out of a type of smooth, white stone, with roofs made out of exquisitely carved wood. “Can we enter that city?” Guo Luo spoke up from beside Yao Jun. These last few days of flying, they had spotted several cities of varying sizes, but chose not to enter any of them. Some cities were large enough, but there were Anti-Demon Pillars at the gates, so Yao Jun would not be able to enter. Other cities were simply too small, the odds of finding any good information from those cities was too small. “Yes, there are some guards at the gates to the higher areas, but the entrance to the lower area has no guards or defenses, entering should be safe.” Yao Jun had given the entire city a quick scan. While the parts that belonged to the higher areas of the city had guards and some defenses, the entrance to the lower parts did not. He also did not see any Anti-Demon Pillars anywhere in the city, so entering seemed safe. “Have you decided on what we should focus our efforts on looking for?” Before they left the previous city, Yao Jun said that they were going to look for information about Demonic beasts. But in the last few days, both Guo Luo and Yao Jun discovered that they knew woefully little about this continent, so they both agreed on finding more information about this continent as well. Guo Luo only asked so that it would be easier to look for the information. “Currently, I want to find information about three different themes. The first theme is maps, I want maps of not just this continent, but also the adjacent Yang and Liang continents. Since these three continents are so close to each other, traveling between them should be fairly easy, so knowing about the different locations on these three continents is important.” Yao Jun had already made up his mind. Guo Jiahao had talked in detail about the relationship between this continent and the adjacent Yang and Liang continent. Since they were so close, it should be fairly easy to travel between them, allowing Yao Jun to travel around all three instead of just this one. “The second theme is information about the important clans and individuals on these three continents. We need to know who has power where, that way we can avoid any unnecessary trouble while traveling in those areas.” Yao Jun did not want to end up being chased by the powerful people belonging to any of the three continents, not while he was still this weak. Once he got stronger in the future, then he could do whatever he wanted without worrying about the consequences. “The third theme is information about what type of Demonic beasts live on these three continents, as well as where to find them. Just running around blindly will make it highly unlikely to stumble on the right Demonic beasts.” Yao Jun had already made a plan for his Demon God's Gate. He did not want too many Demonic beasts belonging to the same element. If possible, he wanted no more than at most two Demonic beasts of each element, unless there was something else special about them of course. He also didn't want too many, he preferred quality of quantity. Once quality reached a high enough level, it would not just be better than quantity, it could even produce quantity. Some Demonic beasts were considered the rulers of their race, able to summon their brethren at will, this was what Yao Jun was aiming for. He already had a few thoughts about what his next Demonic beast was going to be. The next Demonic beast he was looking for was something with a strong body, something that could help him strengthen his own body. If he managed to strengthen his body a little bit more, he could start training in the technique given to him by Sword Empyrean Heng Jiang, Crumbling The Nine Heavens. “Also, if you find anything about the Grand Quan continent, let me know immediately.” Yao Jun had not forgotten about his original goal, he still wanted to go home more than anything. But he also knew that he needed power to provide a safe place for his parents also, once he left this continent, it was hard to say when he would be able to return, so it was best to do as much as he could while he was still here. Entering the city, which turned out to be called Eternal Stream City, was just as easy as Yao Jun had anticipated, all they had to do was land a good distance away before walking the rest of the way. Before entering the lower parts of the city, Yao Jun and Guo Luo both covered themselves in brown robes. The main reason was because the clothes they were wearing were simply too extravagant for the lower parts of the city, so Yao Jun wanted to avoid being swarmed because they looked rich. Another reason was because of Guo Luo. After awakening her Illusion God's Gate and healing the scars that once covered her face, she had turned into what could only be called an illusory beauty. Coupled with her colorful hair and eyes, she was very eye catching. Yao Jun did not want them to get swarmed by men as they were walking through the city. Yao Jun and Guo Luo were currently both sitting inside a small room that they rented out after entering the city. The room was only a few meters in diameter and only contained two beds and two nightstands. If they wanted to use a restroom or clean themselves, they would have to use the one that was shared by everyone in the inn. Guo Luo was sitting with her eyes closed on one of the beds while Yao Jun was lying on the other bed with his eyes closed, waiting. “There is no library or store that specializes in information in these lower districts, if we want to find that, we will have to head to the upper districts. To enter the upper districts, we only need to pay a small fee for each person that wants to enter. But the gates are already closed for today, we will have to wait for tomorrow. ” Guo Luo slowly opened her eyes after a short while and started speaking. This was something she had learned after awakening her Illusion God's Gate. She could create an illusion and put a part of her mind into the illusion, allowing her to see and hear everything that happened around the illusion. Just now she had created an illusion of a young child and used it to ask several of the guards to the upper district for information. “I see, then we have no choice but to wait here for the night, once the gates open tomorrow, we can head into the upper district and check out the library.”
