Chapter 319 Someone Wants to Enter
Before Shi Chen could ask further, Han Xiao continued, "After the third time I went in, I was very disciplined. I didn't wander around and explored carefully. I used the crystal ball to open the door of a room. The bed, quilt, mattress, table, chairs, and even the candlesticks were ordinary magical instruments. I saw a folding fan on the table, so I put it in my storage bag. After a few breaths, I was teleported out."
"You have a crystal ball magic weapon, which is equivalent to the key to enter the floating city. Have you never entered the floating city again since then?" Shi Chen thought of some possibilities and asked with a smile.
"Later, I tried many times. Although I could find the floating city, no matter how I transferred spiritual power into the crystal ball, the floating city did not give me a chance to enter." Han Xiao said.
Shi Chen stroked his chin, thought for a moment, and then said, "Although this crystal ball artifact is the key to entering the floating city, it seems that its use also has many restrictions. Perhaps the floating city itself has a judgment mechanism that determines who can enter and the permissions for entry."
Han Xiao nodded in agreement. He looked towards the floating city with a hint of longing in his eyes. "Senior, how can we ensure that we can successfully enter the floating city and explore it?"
Shi Chen returned the crystal ball to Han Xiao beside him, and then said in a deep voice: "According to various rumors, entering the floating city is not difficult.
Wherever it appears, everyone has the opportunity to enter, but the mechanism of the floating city will teleport out the person who triggers it.
I carefully studied the runes when it appeared. This is just a large-scale development formation. It makes people feel that there is a real fairy city in front of them, but it is actually just the effect of the formation.
There is also a teleportation array. Once you enter the development, you will have the opportunity to be teleported to the real floating fairy city."
Han Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard Shi Chen's words. He said, "Senior, are you saying that as long as we enter the formation when the floating city appears, we'll have a chance to be transported to the real floating city? Then why are we still so cautious in studying the crystal ball artifact?"
Shi Chen smiled slightly and explained, “Although this is theoretically true, we don’t know whether this transmission is random or has other restrictions.
Moreover, this floating city is so mysterious that it must be shrouded in danger. Entering through the crystal ball artifact may allow us to more specifically choose our entry point and reduce unnecessary risks.
Now we have made new discoveries in conventional entry methods, and we can give them a try.”
Han Xiao nodded in understanding. He looked at the crystal ball in his hand, hesitant about whether to continue relying on it or find another way in.
"Senior, why don't you use the crystal ball first? You can return it to me when you come out of the floating city." After considering it, Han Xiao reached out and handed over the crystal ball.
"No need. I have already passed through it and opened the door to the floating city. You can take it with you. For me, it doesn't matter whether you have the crystal ball or not." Shi Chen said, looking at the portal in the air.
"Senior, let's enter the portal!" Han Xiao suggested.
"I'll go in first, and you follow me in with the crystal magic ball. As long as the crystal magic ball passes through the portal, the portal will close. However, we may not be teleported to the same place. After you go in, you have to be careful." Shi Chen reminded.
Han Xiao's heart tightened. He knew that Shi Chen was right. The teleportation of this floating city was full of uncertainty, but he also believed in Shi Chen's strength.
"Don't worry, senior, I will be careful, and you should be careful too." Han Xiao said firmly.
Just as Shi Chen put away the flying boat and flew towards the portal, several black dots appeared in the distance. In an instant, the black dots grew larger. Within a few breaths, five Jindan cultivators each drove their flying boats and stopped dozens of feet outside the portal.
Shi Chen stopped ten feet in front of the teleportation portal, floating in the air, looking at the several Jindan cultivators who had arrived.
"Haha!" A ninth-level Jindan cultivator laughed. "Meeting is fate. Fellow Daoist, could you please allow us to enter the teleportation gate together?"
"Yes, everyone saw the floating city appear, but we were far away. Coming here is everyone's chance." Someone echoed.
Shi Chen turned around and said to Han Xiao behind him, "What do you think? Whether to let them in or not is up to you."
"Well..." Han Xiao hesitated and frowned, saying, "This is an opportunity for Senior and me. As for them, I'm afraid that if they enter, they will disturb Senior's exploration of the floating city."
"Whether they enter or not has no impact on me, but you are right. This is an opportunity for you and me. If you want to share it, you can't just say a few words to get rid of it." Shi Chen said with a smile.
The ninth-level Jindan cultivator's expression changed slightly when he heard Shi Chen's words, but he quickly regained his smile and said, "You are right, fellow Daoist. We naturally wouldn't ask for this opportunity without words. The five of us are willing to give up our treasures, just to be able to enter the floating city with the two of you."
After saying that, he took out a magic weapon from his storage bag. This magic weapon emitted a faint blue light, and the spiritual power fluctuations were very strong.
Seeing this, the other four monks also took out their treasures. There were spiritual ores emitting a fiery aura, spiritual crystals engraved with runes, and fourth-level spiritual medicines.
The last person's cultivation level was at the third level of the early Golden Core stage. He might not have any spiritual objects worth taking out, so he was extremely anxious.
After a few breaths, he faced everyone's gazes and looked at the portal, his eyes turning repeatedly, wanting to force his way into the portal. As long as he could get in, it would be difficult for everyone to catch him. However, he hesitated, fearing that all the monks present would target him and he could not withstand the attack of so many people.
Moreover, the cultivator closest to the teleportation portal had a vague cultivation level that he could not determine whether he was at the Golden Core stage, the Nascent Soul stage, or perhaps the Foundation Establishment stage. Thinking of the Golden Core mid-stage cultivator behind him who called him Senior, his cultivation level should not be lower than the Golden Core mid-stage.
After much consideration, he took out a roll of animal skin from the storage ring.
Seeing the last Jindan cultivator take out something, the ninth-level Jindan cultivator's half-closed eyes slowly opened wide. He was thinking, if the last Jindan cultivator didn't take out anything and just forced his way into the portal, should he also take the opportunity to rush in as quickly as possible?
Several other Jindan cultivators who took out spiritual objects also stared closely at the last Jindan cultivator who hesitated. They were not friends who knew each other well. They just happened to encounter the floating city appearing in this Xiyuan Sea and were looking for opportunities together. If there was a chance to get the opportunity without paying a price, why not do it.
The expressions of the several people were different, from the initial painful struggle when taking out the spiritual objects, to watching the last Jindan cultivator, hesitantly, everyone held their breath, and the atmosphere became tense.
After taking out the spiritual objects, everyone exhaled and relaxed.
Shi Chen watched with a smile on his face, ignoring the ever-changing expressions of the few people. In his spiritual consciousness, he sensed that the last animal skin scroll taken out seemed to have a connection with something on his body.
