Chapter 909 - 500,000 Netherworld ArmyIn this Ghost City, there were tens of millions of people. Even tens of millions. However, because the area was wide enough, it was not crowded.
After descending the Heavenly Eagle Mountain Range, Long Chen saw an endless, immeasurably tall wall before him. The wall was shrouded in ink-black clouds, and the walls in the distance could not be seen at all.
The city wall was over a hundred meters tall and incredibly majestic. Long Chen had to raise his head to be able to see the garrison that was standing on top of the city wall. This garrison was not made up of Netherworld Army, but their allocation could not be too low. At least, with a single glance from Long Chen, there were no martial artists lower than the fourth stage of Heaven Martial Stage in the garrison.
"Netherworld Army is an army from the Nether Realm. They are stationed in these cities mainly to intimidate the mayor and prevent any accidents at the same time. Their normal job of guarding the city and the security in the city should be the responsibility of these city guards." Long Chen guessed.
After all, 90 million Netherworld Army s had a very high status within the Nether Palace.
Long Chen was currently in one of the one hundred main cities of the Nether Realm.People from all over the place continuously entered the Ghost City, and the Heavenly Eagle Gorge was only one of the small paths.
Walking into the crowd, Long Chen followed countless of people walking towards the direction of the Ghost City. In the midst of the countless experts" encirclement, he was not the least bit affected.
Ghost City had a population of over ten million, and every day, there would be hundreds of thousands of people flowing about.
Long Chen noticed that the people who entered the Ghost City had a much higher level of strength than the people at the Red Sun Middle City. The people who came from far away were all riding puppets, or some other ferocious beasts, and some of their auras were concealed, but they were unable to conceal their terrifying auras. Long Chen could only carefully avoid them.
"The goal of coming to the Ghost City is to raise your cultivation level all the way to Divine Martial Stage in the Ghost Battlefield! Let"s not go to the Nether Realm for now. Once I have the power of Divine Martial Stage, coupled with my ability to kill people beyond my cultivation realm, entering the Nether Realm will be more appropriate. "
Long Chen thought for a while and followed the crowd, walking into the Ghost City without making a fuss. On both sides, tens of thousands of city guards, as well as the city walls, as well as the hundred thousand city guards, all of these sharp eyes were fixated on them, and under the watch of countless eyes, everyone had a feeling that their scalps were going numb. With this kind of situation, who would dare to cause trouble here?Even a tiger had to keep its claws.
After pa.s.sing through the thick black walls, Long Chen finally entered the Ghost City. Such a thick and heavy city wall, as well as the reinforcement provided by the Symbol Master, were flas.h.i.+ng with strange runes. Even Long Chen himself would not be able to break through this city.
Inside the Ghost City, the roads were clear and neat. Most buildings were tall and st.u.r.dy, and with the support of runes, the entire Ghost City was as hard as steel, even harder than the steel of Archaic Graveyard.
This Ghost City had strict rules and regulations, all authority was held in the hands of the City Lord. Under the strict management of the army, very few people dared to make a move against the Ghost City, so Long Chen saw an orderly and prosperous scene.
There was an endless stream of pedestrians. The main road of the main city was in front of his eyes, and outside of the main road were countless branches. The two sides of the road, which were near the city gate, were filled with shops and shops. There were even many things a martial artist needed, such as pills, divine weapons, combat skills, and so on.
"Next, we should inquire about the location and location of the Netherworld Army and then inquire about the selection of the Netherworld Army." After Long Chen entered the Ghost City, he started to think about this matter.
Ah Dong and the rest had already entered the city, but Long Chen did not plan to look for them. Because he had the True Martial Emperor"s Soul, Long Chen"s trajectory was different from theirs. Even if he came to the Imperial Domain, Long Chen still had a heaven-defying potential.
Everyone had their own fortuitous encounters, Long Chen had helped them escape danger, and it could be said that he had done his utmost to help them.
In an elegant tea house by the side of the road, Long Chen sat down and listened to the discussions of the people around him. At the same time, he looked at the various people in the Ghost City. Here, ordinary Earth Martial Stage were only children. All the adults had the power of the Heaven Martial Stage, and among them, there were a lot of women who were from the first to third stage of Heaven Martial Stage.
On the way, Long Chen saw many experts at the seventh and eighth levels of Heaven Martial Stage, as well as experts who were equivalent to the six demon clan experts at the ninth level of Heaven Martial Stage.
People of this level were legends in the Archaic Graveyard, but in this place, they were just ordinary people.
After the tea was served, Long Chen asked: "Do you know where the training camp is?"
Hearing Long Chen"s question, the shop owner revealed a knowing smile, he moved quickly and took out a piece of paper, then said: "The answer to the question you want to ask, is written on this piece of paper. You young warriors from other countries all want to join the Netherworld Army, and dozens of people ask me these kind of questions every day.
"Thank you very much." Long Chen laughed in embarra.s.sment. Indeed, if he was asked this question every day, he would be speechless, but from the looks of it, there were really a lot of people who wanted to partic.i.p.ate in the Netherworld Army. No wonder so many people died every year, while the Netherworld Army was still able to maintain its numbers."I won"t thank you, but young man, from the looks of it, you don"t have enough strength. All these years, I have seen many powerhouses of the seventh stage of Heaven Martial Stage coming home dejectedly. That Netherworld Army is not that easy to enter, even if it"s the seventh level of the Heaven Martial Stage, without such unique skills like Deity Tier Battle Skills, it"s very difficult, very difficult! "
"I"m just here to get to know you. After ten years, I"ll come and try. "Thank you for the reminder." Long Chen said humbly.
"That"s more like it. The Netherworld Army was the trump card of the Nether Realm. Once the ninety million Netherworld Army came out, who would fight them? Therefore, this selection was naturally very, very strict. My dream when I was young was also to join the Netherworld Army. But dozens of years have pa.s.sed and I won"t even be able to reach the fourth stage of Heaven Martial Stage. The shopkeeper sighed with emotion, his eyes filled with desolation.
Long Chen shook his head, and then looked at the information the shop owner had given him.
"The Ghost City is divided into four districts, named after the directions, and are respectively north, south, east and west. The training camp occupies a quarter of the territory of the Ghost City, and in the eastern part of the Ghost City, this is a sealed region. Normal people are not allowed to enter."
"For the fifteenth of every month, there will always be a Netherworld Army selection. The fifteenth also means the day to register. Every month, there will be thousands of people registering, but in the end, only a hundred Netherworld Army s will be able to pa.s.s. "
"The Netherworld Army"s selection examination is held in the eastern part of the Ghost City. At that time, there will be a total of four examiners who will evaluate the results of the partic.i.p.ants in the selection. At that time, partic.i.p.ants will have to fight with fierce beasts or puppets to display their fighting capabilities. The organizer would a.s.sess a martial artist"s strength based on his or her attack power, combat experience, extraordinary performance, and various factors such as his or her temperament and potential in battle. Three or more examiners will be required to pa.s.s the permission before they can enter the ranks of the preparatory Netherworld Army. "
"Prepare Netherworld Army, see how many are pa.s.sed in the end, and then proceed with the selection process. In the end, only a hundred people will be able to join the Netherworld Army and become its fresh blood."
"The four examiners are Chieftain s of the Netherworld Army. They command a thousand Netherworld Army s and are experts in The First Stage of the Divine Martial Realm."
Long Chen looked at it bit by bit. The information recorded on this piece of paper, could be summed up to be more or less the same as what was written above. He calculated that today was already thirteen, and there were only two days left before he reached fifteen.In the next two days, he had to make proper preparations and find out more information. For example, during the selection, he wanted to find out what kind of ferocious beasts or puppets they were dealing with.
Long Chen reckoned that if it was a Vicious Beast, it would be a Royal Level 7 Beast. There was also another point. If one"s performance wasn"t outstanding enough, then even defeating or even killing a vicious beast might not necessarily allow one to pa.s.s the a.s.sessment. After all, it would be quite difficult for three or more of the four to agree.
However, Long Chen had the strength to kill the eighth level of Heaven Martial Stage, so these things shouldn"t be a problem for him.
After he finished reading, Long Chen was just about to thank the shop owner when, at that moment, there was a huge commotion at the city gate. Long Chen"s face did not change, he took a sip of tea and looked in that direction.At this moment, the people in the teahouse walked out one by one and looked in the direction of the city gate.
Even if there was a commotion, the Ghost City was not in chaos. It could be seen that the managers here had powerful methods.
"Shop owner, what"s going on?" Long Chen saw that the shop owner had also come out, and looked towards the city gate with interest.
"That"s right, you came from a foreign land, so you don"t know anything about our Ghost City." The main character had yet to appear, so the shop owner was in no hurry. He introduced himself, "I"m older than you are. You can just call me Old w.a.n.g."
After pausing for a moment, he pointed to the city gate and said, "I had heard a long time ago that the City Lord had a younger brother who seemed to be coming to the Ghost City from a clan far away from the Nether Realm. Judging from the movement in the direction of the city gate, it should be because this person has already arrived. "
