Chapter 261: The Inner City

After a night of fun, Ye Li took Huang Jian and Mu Tianzhi, who were a little dizzy, back to their accommodation, and after throwing the two of them back to their respective rooms, he went back to his room to rest.

At noon the next day, the three of them went to the shops in the Imperial City together.

Ye Li had a lot of things to buy, one was a new talisman, his Ye family's talisman reserve was too small, and there was almost no room for choice, it was difficult for him to match the spell combination he needed according to his own ideas.

The second is that he still needs a lot of demon pills, after all, although the natal talisman seal has entered the spirit pill, but the ability to swallow the demon pill or the pill has not disappeared, he needs to take a large amount of demon pill as a high-quality pill to increase the speed of cultivation.

The third is that he needs to buy enough casting materials, because he also wants to practice his multi-purpose drawing skills in the way of casting.

Among the surrounding shops, all the things he needs are sold, and the only thing is that these shops do not accept spirit stones, but only the contribution points of the Imperial City.

Contribution points are such things as being recorded and consumed with the special token of the Imperial City, Ye Li has to wait three days to get the token, and now he can't afford to buy any items.

And even if Ye Li obtains the token three days later, he has no contribution points until he completes the task or issues it monthly, and he can also see it but not buy it.

The group quickly walked to the area where the tasks were issued, and Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi watched the various tasks here with great interest.

There are not many types of tasks here, and there are only two main ones, one is the task of hunting monsters, and the materials of various parts of the monsters are exchanged for contribution points.

The second is to serve as a guard for the vassal forces of the Imperial City, or to escort their caravans back and forth.

Of course, there are also some investigative tasks, such as going to some areas where there is a situation and sending the information to the Imperial City.

The completion of these tasks will reward you with a large number of contribution points, but it will take a lot of time.

Most people in the sect choose to earn contribution points, not to take these fixed tasks, but to go out hunting or search for some dangerous areas, get various rare items from them, and take them back to the sect to obtain the corresponding contribution points.

After all, many of these precious items may not be things that you can use, and after exchanging the corresponding contribution points, you can exchange them for things that you can use in various shops in the door.

However, just like the previous purchase of goods, the handover task requires the token of the Imperial City, Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi did not have it, and after looking around again, they could only leave in a huff.

Ye Li, who couldn't do anything but watch, returned to his residence very boringly, and there was nothing else to do in the past three days anyway, so he stayed in the room and cultivated by himself.

The three days passed quickly, and early on the morning of the fourth day, someone knocked on the door of Ye Li and Mu Tianzhi at the same time.

On Mu Tianzhi's side, the servants brought him a few sets of yellow clothes and a black token with his name printed on it.

This token is a very delicate talisman that has many functions, such as storing and reducing contribution points, and proving identity handover tasks.

And Ye Li's side, the subordinate just sent an order, Qi Wei asked him to go to the Inner Court Elders' Pavilion, and the Inner Court Elders would have something to find him.

Ye Li didn't have to think about it to know what was going on, Mei Ruoxiang had already said that the prefecture-level status was issued by the Inner Court Elders.

After explaining to Mu Tianzhi, Ye Li followed the subordinates who led the way towards the Inner Court Elders' Council.

The location of the Inner Court Elders is in the inner city, and this subordinate only has the power to bring Ye Li to the entrance of the inner city, and the road inside must be led by the elite royal army who is specially responsible for guarding the inner city.

After the subordinates brought Ye Li to the entrance of the inner city, they stepped forward to talk to the elite royal court army guards who were on duty there, and Ye Li also took the opportunity to observe the guards of these elite royal court troops.

These guards were all dressed in strange armor as black as ink and full of runes, and they looked extremely heavy.

With Ye Li's eyes, he could naturally see the extraordinaryness of these armors at a glance, because all of them were not rune armor, but rune treasures.

These rune treasures should be specially cast, purely for defense, and they are amazingly powerful in defense, and it is difficult for ordinary masters of the same level to break them.

And this rune armor has other functions, that is, it allows the guards to form some simple offensive and defensive arrays, connecting each other's forces together.

This kind of thing is a rare thing, and a non-master-level caster can't afford to make them at all, so the number is very rare, and there can't be too many of them in the average big family.

After the subordinate informed the two guards of Ye Li's matter, the other party immediately called out two more guards from the next room, took over the work of the subordinate, walked in front of Ye Li, and led him to the inner city.

The walls of the inner city were also covered with rune marks, and in Ye Li's opinion, they were even denser and more complex than the runes in the outer city, obviously the formation here might be stronger than the outer city.

Following the two guards, Ye Li passed through the inner city gate all the way and entered the inner city, where the environment and the outside instantly became two worlds.

If the outside looks like an ordinary town, the inside of the city is completely courtyard-like.

There is a huge artificial lake in the middle of the city, surrounded by dense forests, small bridges and flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, which looks extremely quiet and dignified.

From the outside, the Imperial City makes people feel very domineering and full of royal temperament, while deep inside, it is a peaceful and tranquil holy realm.

This is a kind of spiritual realm of "inner saint and outer king", which makes people feel extraordinary at a glance.

Ye Li followed the guards across the small lake, and the birds on the water were slightly frightened, and flew to the side.

A group of young men and women in beige robes were practicing on the other side of the small lake, the light of the spirit yuan was constantly shining, and there was a circle of aura shields around them, which did not let their spell attacks destroy the exquisite beauty here.

From the robes of this group of people, Ye Li naturally recognized their identities, they were the heaven-level disciples in the inner city, and they were also the successors of the future deacons and elders of the Imperial City.

As he was walking, a pleasant piano sound came from the forest not far away, and from a distance, there was a quiet pavilion standing in the lush greenery.

And a graceful white figure is sitting in the pavilion at the moment playing with the guqin on the table.

The sound of the piano attracted countless birds to gather, and the silence of the forest for a while added a lot of vitality.

The heaven-level disciples who heard the sound of the piano had already stopped their movements at this time, and they all looked towards the small pavilion in the distance, and the eyes of many young men were full of admiration at this moment.
