Leaving the Magical Beast Forest
604 Words
After getting thrown from the cliff, the waterfall had brought Jaden a long way away from his home. He was quite deep inside the Magical Beast Forest.
It took him half a day just to get out of the Magical Beast Forest, on the way he encountered various types of Demon Beasts but most of them were Body Refining realm and only few of them were at Qi Condensing Realm. After leaving the forest he arrived at one of the Border Cities of the Thunder Titan Empire, The Green Jade City.
Jaden rested in that city for a few days, he also sold all the beast materials he collected after killing the Demon Beasts, he was able to get a few 100 medium level spirit stones and a few 10 thousands gold coins.
Without any other means, given his cultivation realm, if he were to leave from this place, it would take him at least a month to reach back to Imperial Capital even if he were to rush day and night without any rest or sleep.
Jaden pondered for a moment and decided to leave for the capital and see if he could find out any news about the Shiba Clan.
Putting away the map that he brought from a local shop in Green Jade City, he sped in the direction of the capital. He travel from one city to another and after traveling for more than a month, Jaden arrived near the Capital.
An hour later, at the border between the sky and the ground ahead, a towering black walled city came into view.
The city wall extended from the ground left and right, but there was no end to it!
One could feel the grandeur of the city merely by looking from afar! It was as if an ancient titan was standing on the horizon. The closer he approached the city, the more he could feel its magnificence.
Compared to the city before him, New York City from his previous life, was like a mansion in a real city. It was a world of difference.
At a close distance, one could clearly see signs of the surface of the city walls being weathered by the elements. While it was old and mottled, the city stood upright and indestructible over countless years!
That was because this was the core of the Thunder Titan Dynasty.
The Thunder Emperor’s territory, the capital of the dynasty!
There were three tall city gates in the direction of Jaden’s city wall where many guards of the capital stood on both sides. The traffic was endless and more than half of them were cultivators!
Jaden stood in front of the city gate and headed into the Imperial capital with the crowd.
He looked around carefully and noticed that the guards would collect five spirit stones as entrance fee each time they encountered cultivators.
Qi Condensing Cultivators paid five inferior-grade spirit stones while Foundation Establishment Cultivators paid five middle-grade spirit stones. As for Profound Cores, they could enter directly. Jaden was not bothered by the rules and did not want any trouble, so he handed five inferior-grade spirit stones casually to a guard.
One of the guards reminded him out of kindness that there were many rules in the capital and he should watch out for them. If he broke any, he could be kicked out of the capital for minor offenses. As for major offenses, he could be dealt with severely!
Expressing his thanks, Jaden entered the capital. Upon entering, he nodded silently. The spirit qi in the capital was clearly thicker than outside.
