At this moment, the light door flickered, and then a figure passed through the light door and appeared in booth No. 50.
Gao Xingyu saw that there was lightning strike wood for sale, and it came from Tianleitan, so he naturally wanted to come in and take a look.
For mages, Lightning Strike Wood has a wide range of uses and can be used in many formations. Therefore, as long as the quality of Thunder Strike Wood is acceptable, there is no problem in buying it with your eyes closed.
However, when Gao Xingyu came in, he found that someone was already trading at the stall, and they were human monks, so as usual, he stepped aside and waited for the previous transaction to end.
Since they were all human monks, Gao Xingyu took off his cloak from his head and nodded friendly to the three human monks.
"Hey, are you...Master Gao?" While negotiating with the stall owner, he paid attention to the Nangong Xiaojian of the latecomer. After seeing Gao Xingyu's appearance clearly, he hesitated for a moment and then came forward to say hello.
"Nangong Xiaojian of the Nangong family has met Master Gao. I was lucky enough to meet you once before at Nangong Villa.
This is my sister Nangong Wan'er. This is Sister Qin Cao from Huixian Yaju."
"Hello, everyone!" Gao Xingyu returned the greeting.
After hearing Nangong Xiaojian mention that he had met him at Nangong Villa, Gao Xingyu knew the other party’s background.
Nangong Villa is the villa of the Nangong family. It is located on the edge of the Tianhong Mountains more than 100 kilometers northwest of Qunyu City. It is currently one of the five forward strongholds outside Qunyu City.
Whether it is in the secular world or the cultivation world, if there is only an isolated city as a base, it will not only be difficult to defend, but also difficult to develop and grow.
Qunyu City is the only settlement of the human race in the Xiaochi Realm. In order to effectively protect Qunyu City, after the completion of Qunyu City and the human race moved in one after another, senior experts chose suitable locations outside the city and built three permanent forward strongholds. The other two forward outposts were built later.
When developing the world of Miaochi, the powerful ones have predicted that the end of the Dharma era is coming, and everyone is making preparations to move to other worlds.
Due to the Heavenly Dao’s suppression of the upper limit of cultivation, the earlier traditional organizational structure of sects as the mainstay and families as the auxiliaries is no longer suitable for the cultivation world in the Age of Dharma Ending.
So, the various sects and families who were preparing to enter the world of Miaochi and settled in Qunyu City united, abandoned their sectarian ideas, formed the Chinese Guardian Alliance among the remaining personnel, and integrated the basic cultivation skills left behind by each. (limited to the skills before Jindan) and some cultivation resources, forming a new structure led by the alliance and assisted by sects and families.
After moving into Qunyu City, the Chinese monks were in a window period when they lost the support of mid-to-high-end forces, and they also had to face the hostility and attacks from the surrounding orcs.
Comparedly speaking, cultivating families who are related by blood are better at separate attacks and cooperation in battle.
Therefore, the alliance handed over the advanced stronghold to the management of the three most powerful families in Qunyu City at that time. One of them wasIt’s the Nangong family.
Speaking of which, among the cultivating families in China back then, these three families couldn't even make it into the top twenty, and could only be considered average.
It’s just that the so-called top families have their own secret realm or cave heaven paradise in the earth world, which not only allows people to practice, but also generates certain resources.
The people they left behind in the earth world only need to remain in seclusion or semi-seclusion in order to continue the inheritance.
Therefore, the top families basically have no intention of moving to Xiaochi Realm. Even if people are sent here, it is only to spread the branches and leaves. At most, they are only a few side members, with insufficient combat effectiveness.
On the contrary, those small and medium-sized families had to leave the Earth Realm completely when they were about to lose the "land" in the "Dharma Land Wealth Couple", and the entire family moved to the Miaochi Realm.
Many of these families only retain their ancestral land symbolically in the earth world and do not continue to pass it on. There is not even a place for cultivation, so the so-called inheritance has become a sourceless water.
In this way, the strength of these small and medium-sized families who moved into Qunyu City was preserved, and they became the main force at that time. The Nangong family, which has the inheritance of battle formations and is good at group cooperation, has become the guardian of the stronghold in front of the Tianhong Mountains.
The defense of the stronghold was more difficult than the defense of the city. The three families fought bloody battles and lost a large number of clansmen. Finally, they persisted until the large human army that moved into the Miaochi Realm completed their integration. and adapted, freeing up their hands to switch to counterattack, and finally gained a firm foothold in the world of scorn.
Therefore, the three families that sacrificed themselves to buy precious time for the human race are respected as the three major families in the Miaoji world, and receive preferential support in terms of policies and resources from the alliance.
Today, these three families have developed into the three major families that deserve the name. Apart from a slight lack of foundation, in terms of the number of masters and overall strength, they are not inferior to those left behind on Earth. The top family in the world.
As time goes by, the existence of the human race is gradually accepted by the surrounding orcs. Except for the siege of beasts once every few years, Qunyu City rarely receives large-scale attacks.
The military role of several advanced strongholds is gradually weakening, and more often they become transit points for human monks when traveling.
These strongholds are nominally owned by the defenders, but as an extension of the overall defense of Qunyu City, the alliance is responsible for maintaining the formations deployed at the strongholds.
Gao Xingyu received the task assigned by the Formation Hall and went to the former stronghold in the Tianhong Mountains - also known as Nangong Villa to conduct regular inspections of the formations there.
In order to show respect for the formation master, the foundation-building elder of the Nangong family who was responsible for external affairs accompanied Gao Xingyu all the way. After arriving at Nangong Villa, there were clan members stationed at the villa responsible for controlling the formation.
Gao Xingyu and Ying Baoer were busy at Nangong Villa for three days. He readjusted and tested various formations with reference to the formation diagrams left by the creators of the formations, and supplemented and replaced some formation kits.
The main residence of the Nangong family is in Qunyu City, where they arefoundation.
In non-war conditions, the Nangong family will arrange for clan members to take turns going to Nangong Villa, so that there will always be a foundation-building monk and at least five mid- to high-level guards in the Qi training stage. The City Guards will also send a small team to station at Nangong Villa to assist in defense.
Nangong Xiaojian was on duty at Nangong Villa at the time. He didn't understand the formation, so he didn't approach Gao Xingyu, but just watched from a distance.
So, now Nangong Xiaojian knows Gao Xingyu, but Gao Xingyu does not know him.
After a few people bowed to each other, they stepped aside. This kind of occasion was not suitable for everyone to chat. Nangong Xiaojian continued to trade with the stall owner.
The two Kun quietly looked at each other, and found a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.
It has been two years since Gao Xingyu came to Xiaochijie. He was specially invited to join the alliance as a formation master in the Qi training period. He is usually either communicating and studying with the formation masters or busy completing various tasks.
Being an array mage is not a profession that has unlimited glory and high status in front of people. Gao Xingyu is more accustomed to restraining his sharp edges and doing things in a low-key manner.
However, as time went by, his reputation gradually became louder, and even the two Kun Xiu had heard of him. The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please use your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you
