Chapter 359: Chapter 254: Martial Saint’s Essence, Azure Dragon galopolis
As Lu Qing focused his gaze upon the characters “Azure Dragon City” on the city gate.
Soon, a rather dense Golden Superpower Light erged from the characters.
Several strands of information floated up.
Golden?
Lu Qing was slightly startled and looked towards those strands of information.
[Martial Saint Inscription: These three characters are personally written by a Martial Artist at the level of Perfect Innate Realm, with graceful calligraphy and an extraordinary montum.]
[Containing the will of Martial Arts, it can remain undispersed for hundreds of years.]
[There are rumors in the world that within these three characters, the legacy of that supre Martial Arts Expert is hidden, yet for hundreds of years, no one has been able to unravel the mystery and gain the legacy.]
[Discovery of a Cultivation Technique, do you wish to download?]
“So it really contains a legacy?”
Lu Qing was sowhat surprised.
He had only felt that these characters held a different implication and had a slight suspicion in his heart, but he didn’t expect that there indeed was a Cultivation Technique legacy hidden within.
And judging by the description, the origins of this legacy seed quite significant.
After all, not just anyone could assu the title of Martial Saint.
Seeing that many people were lined up at the city gate, waiting to enter the city, and it would take so ti before it was their turn,
He didn’t hesitate for long and imdiately chose to download the Cultivation Technique.
[Downloading in progress, current progress, 1%, 2%, 3%… 98%, 99%, 100%]
[Download complete, do you wish to simulate?]
Lu Qing chose to simulate.
[Simulation in progress, current progress, 1%, 2%, 3%… 98%, 99%, 100%]
[Simulation complete, do you wish to learn?]
This ti, however, Lu Qing did not choose to learn directly.
Because it had taken him more than a mont to download and simulate the Cultivation Technique, and the line had gradually moved forward, it was almost their turn.
“These inscriptions on the city gate are quite extraordinary.”
At this ti, the elder doctor also expressed his admiration.
“Master, did you notice as well?”
Lu Qing was not too surprised; with his master’s talent, it would have been strange if he had not sensed the oddity of those three characters.
“These three characters on the city gate seem to contain the Sword Dao will of a powerful Martial Artist. Unfortunately, as your teacher, after contemplating briefly, I’ve only been able to understand four or five parts.”
The elder doctor sighed a bit.
Just now, after pondering the inscription on the city gate for a while, he felt that the Sword Dao hidden within it was quite beneficial to him.
Central State is indeed full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, brimming with talented individuals.
They haven’t properly entered Central State yet, and just the inscription on a checkpoint city gate is enough to bring about an epiphany.
One can imagine how much more the true land of Central State, teeming with geographically auspicious places and nurous masters, might be.
“Figured out four or five parts…”
Lu Qing was sowhat speechless.
His master’s Martial Arts Talent and perception were indeed very strong.
In the city gate inscriptions was the understanding left behind by a Martial Artist at the pinnacle of Innate Perfection.
His master was actually able to grasp four or five parts of its essence in such a short ti; truly impressive.
“You, where do you co from, do you have a travel permit, and how many people are entering the city?”
Just as Lu Qing was marveling at his master’s subtle amazent, a rough voice sounded.
Lu Qing turned his head to look and saw two soldiers clad in armor and holding long halberds standing in front of the city gate. The one on the right was the one doing the shouting.
Lu Qing’s heart stirred slightly.
This Azure Dragon City was indeed extraordinary; even the two City Guards who watched the gate both had Cultivations at the Muscle Bone Realm. One of them, with his Qi-Blood in harmony, had even reached the Perfect Bone Marrow Realm.
“City Guard, sir, we are from Cang State, and there are five of us entering the city.”
Ma Gu approached with a smile and handed over a small booklet.
The so-called travel permit was essentially sothing that could prove their identities and origins.
It was not very useful normally, but at important checkpoints like Azure Dragon Pass, it was still necessary.
Unless they could cross the vast mountain range themselves and enter Central State without passing through Azure Dragon Pass.
The travel permits of Lu Qing and his group had been arranged by the Wei Family, and of course, there were no issues.
The City Guard rely glanced over it and then closed it.
“The travel permits are fine. Five people, one silver ingot per person for the city entry fee, and you have to count the horse carriage too, making it a total of six silver ingots. After you’ve paid, you may enter the city.”
One silver ingot per person?
Upon hearing this number, Ma Gu’s heart gave a slight jump.
However, after noticing the others waiting to enter the city, and seeing that they did not show any unusual reactions, he knew that this entry fee should be normal rather than harassnt targeted at them.
With so reassurance, Ma Gu approached with a smile and took out a money bag to hand over: “Yes, here are the six silver ingots; please, have a look, sirs.”
The guard weighed the money bag, his brow quirked initially, but upon opening it and seeing the small silver ingot inside, he smiled.
He waved them through: “Not bad, good eye. Hurry up and enter. If anyone gives you trouble, just say that Old Hu San has got your back.”
“Many thanks, City Guard!”
Ma Gu’s face showed happiness as he thanked him repeatedly before returning to the carriage and leading it forward.
As the carriage passed through the city gate, the other City Guard, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up: “That young man there, I noticed you seed quite interested in those three characters above the gate earlier?”
Lu Qing was taken aback, turned his head to look, and seeing the guard was looking at him, after a mont’s thought, he smiled and said:
“I have always had an appreciation for calligraphy. Seeing those lofty ‘Azure Dragon City’ characters above, so magnanimous and seemingly not the work of an ordinary man, I couldn’t help but be drawn to them for a mont of observation. City Guard, sir, I hope I haven’t breached any taboo?”
“You haven’t breached any taboo.”
The talking City Guard was a young man with a respectable appearance.
