Preparation

The fire-maned lion was flying in the sky, like a fiery cloud, burning through the sky.

Through the window of his car, Ye Fan overlooked the beautiful and magnificent mountains and rivers in the Zixuan Dynasty. He was shocked when he listened to Kong Jianqing's talk about the various grand events in the dynasty.

The Zixuan Dynasty, which ruled the entire Shenwu Continent and had hundreds of millions of miles of eastern states, was far more powerful than he imagined.

What surprised him even more was that the vitality of heaven and earth gathered here was much better than that of other princely states, and even comparable to the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods.

This is no longer a small country like Canglan, one of the eight hundred vassal states in the dynasty. Wu Zun can become the lord of a city, Wu Hou can become the lord of a county, and Wu Wang can be equal to the king of a country.

This is also not a corner of the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods. Dozens of Martial Kings can form a huge force and dominate the area.

In the Zixuan Dynasty, dozens of Martial Kings were just ordinary top figures. At most, they had some influence in an ordinary city within the dynasty, but they were nothing to Emperor Zixuan.

Senior officials in the imperial capital of the dynasty must be at the King of Martial Realm and pass the "Dynasty Grand Examination" before they can serve.

Only when the Zixuan Dynasty becomes famous in the imperial examination can King Wu become famous all over the world and be known by the human race in the Shenwu Continent.

Almost all the human martial kings in the Dongzhou of the Shenwu Continent regard their ranking in the imperial examination as their highest honor.

Kong Jianqing was once the third place in the imperial examination, and became famous in the dynasty in one fell swoop. After a hundred years of hard training, he became one of the dozens of cabinet bachelors. His status rose to the top of the Martial King Realm of the Zixuan Dynasty, but he was still far away from the Martial King Realm. Far.

Only those who are Emperor Wu can have a very high status within the Zixuan Dynasty and become a prominent giant.

In his early days as King Yin Zuwu, Ye Fan was a great top-level existence in any vassal country.

However, in the Zixuan Dynasty, he was only one of the best among the Martial Kings with higher bloodline talents. He was still some distance away from the peak super-first-class realm in the later period of the Martial King, let alone even further away from the Martial King's realm.

He couldn't help but feel anxious.

After you finish forming the Mammoth Corps during this period, you must seize the time to practice.

…

The fire-maned lion's car traveled through the vast land of the Zixuan Dynasty and finally arrived near the imperial capital.

The magnificent imperial city of the Zixuan Dynasty is filled with the majestic vitality of heaven and earth. The thick green city wall is a hundred feet high and is made of heavy rectangular rocks. It has strong defensive power.

There are countless towers standing with countless flags. There are many Wuhou and even Wuwang on the towers guarding the tower.

The entire imperial city stretches for thousands of miles, and the city is magnificent in scale. The layout of the tic-tac-toe blocks is strictly prohibited. Even if you look at it from the sky, it is still endless, which is shocking to those who come to the imperial city for the first time.

Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue were well-informed people in Canglan Kingdom and the Ancient Land of Ancestral Gods, but when they came to Zixuan Imperial City, they felt like country people entering the city, and their expressions were full of shock. .

Flying in the air is not allowed within the imperial city, but it is allowed outside the city.

Many high-level martial arts cultivators flew out of the city to save time.

In the sky near the imperial city, you can see thousands of high-level martial arts cultivators walking in the air with radiant black swords, or beast masters riding eagles, cranes and other flying beasts, as well as all kinds of high-level martial arts warriors competing for splendor. The martial arts of the car.

Most of these high-end vehicles carry the banners of various dynasties, popes, various powerful families, ancient families, martial sage families, etc., and no one dares to stop them during their busy schedule.

People in the imperial city are familiar with the rules and know which cars belong to the big shots and which belong to the small families. Who can run rampant and who should take the initiative to avoid them. The sky seems chaotic, but in fact they all abide by the unspoken rules.

King Wu and above can enter and exit the imperial city freely without restriction.

However, those below Wuhou need to check their identity, and those below Wuzun need to verify their origin.

The fire-maned lion envoy car carrying the imperial banner undoubtedly had extremely high authority. It flew down and drove towards the crowded gate of the imperial city.

The city guards following the imperial city were all sharp-eyed and did not dare to check, so they hurriedly let them go.

The car quickly passed through the magnificent city gate and entered the imperial city.

The imperial capital of the dynasty is thousands of miles away, with countless streets, rich and prosperous, and countless pavilions and shops of various colors. It is estimated that if you want to see everywhere, you will not be able to visit them all in a year.

Ye Fan simply didn't look much further, and he and Gu Xinyue found a large inn to stay in the city, planning to slowly visit the imperial city when they had the opportunity in the future.

"Brother Ye, let's rest at this inn in the city and make preparations in advance to resurrect the mammoth. I'm going to the palace to report to His Majesty the progress of forming the corps. By the way, Brother Ye, what materials are needed to resurrect the mammoth? I can report it to His Majesty and prepare it for you."

Kong Jianqing smiled at Ye Fan.

"To resurrect a mammoth, you need 'a mammoth stone egg that still has some vitality, a drop of the elephant king's blood, and a wisp of mammoth soul fire'. Big Hui is a male mammoth, and a female elephant is needed to breed with it. , give birth to offspring, as long as offspring can be born, it will be much easier for the mammoth race to reproduce. I cannot identify the male and female gender of a stone egg. Maybe the next resurrected mammoth may still be a male mammoth, and it cannot Propagate heirs. Therefore, Mr. Kong had better prepare a few copies of these supplies."

Ye Fan thought for a moment and said.

Kong Jianqing naturally understands this truth. It is extremely difficult to identify mammoth stone eggs, let alone identify the male and female of a stone egg.

"Okay, I will prepare some more mammoth stone eggs for you to choose from just in case. As for the blood of the Elephant King, although it is a bit difficult, you can still find a few drops. However, this mammoth soul fire, the mammoth has already It has become extinct. I have never heard of its existence. Where can I find it?"

Kong Jianqing nodded and asked with some doubts.

"Master Kong, wait a moment, let me see if there is anyone selling it!"

Ye Fan used his mind to connect with a secret treasure merchant's token in his arms to see if there was a secret treasure merchant selling mammoth soul fire on it, but after searching carefully, he couldn't find it.

Blood of the Elephant King is sold by adventurers at a high level.

He couldn't help but wonder.

The first two can be found easily by the Zixuan Dynasty, and can even be purchased from adventuring merchants without having to worry about them yourself.

But no one is selling the mammoth soul fire.

He remembered that the mammoth soul fire could only be found in the ancestral land where the mammoth bones were buried.

But he didn't know where the mammoth's ancestral burial place was!

Ye Fan couldn't help but ask Shang in his heart.

Recently, he rarely disturbed Shang unless necessary. Most of the time, Shang was sleeping, accumulating vitality extremely slowly to fight against the various traumas in its divine book.

Shang quickly said: "The ancestral land where the mammoth bones are buried is in the Ice Wasteland Ancient Land, one of the ten ancient places in the north of Dongzhou. But the Ice Wasteland Ancient Land is different from the Ancestral God Ancient Land. Many martial cultivators gathered in the Ancestral God Ancient Land. There are very few human traces in the Ice Wasteland, and only a few powerful ice beasts can survive.

It is an endless icy tundra zone of hundreds of thousands of miles. Almost all the terrain is covered with white snow. The sky is blocked by wind, snow and sandstorms all year round. Even if you have a map, it is useless. You will still get lost in the snowstorm. No one can break into the central area of the Ice Wasteland to find the mammoth's burial place.

Even if King Wu enters, he will be lost in this vast snow-covered ice field, and will eventually be frozen to death by the harsh ice, making it difficult to survive. Even if someone accidentally breaks into the ancestral bone burial ground, the mammoth soul fire is useless, and no one will think of taking it away.

It is extremely difficult to find the ancestral bone burial ground deep in the Ice Wasteland. Unless the Martial Saint sends you directly to the Bone Burial Ground, the possibility of the human race finding it is extremely slim.

However, there is another way. The Mammoth Big Gray Bloodline talent has the memory of the ancestral land, so it can instinctively find the ancestral land where bones are buried. After entering the Ice Wasteland, it will lead you to that place. "

"Da Hui knows the way? That's great!"

Ye Fan couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised.

The last time Da Hui was resurrected, the Elephant Saint wanted the mammoth to return to the Shenwu Continent, so he unconditionally helped him directly reach the ancestral land where the bones were buried and find the mammoth soul fire.

But this time, he wanted to form a mammoth corps for the Zixuan Dynasty and could no longer turn to the Elephant Saint for help.

Nor can he ask for help from human warrior saints, otherwise he will owe new promises.

This mammoth soul fire must be found by oneself.

Ye Fan figured this out and said to Kong Jianqing: "This mammoth soul fire can be found in the Ice Wasteland, but it is very difficult to find it. I'd better go there in person to be more sure."

"Ice Wasteland Ancient Land? I know this place. I have been there once in decades to collect ice materials, but it was only in the outer fringe area and I dare not go deep. In this Ice Wasteland Ancient Land, the freezing air is extremely strong and the cold is extremely cold. Even King Wu cannot Stay long!"

When Kong Jianqing heard this, he couldn't help but look shocked.

"It doesn't matter, I will be careful! Try to bring the soul fire back within a few months."

"Okay. My house is at No. 72, Kongjia Hutong in the North District of the Imperial City. After you get the soul fire, come directly to me here. I will prepare the mammoth stone eggs and the blood of the Elephant Emperor. If there is any For other matters, just send someone to tell me directly."

"good!"

Ye Fan nodded.

Kong Jianqing rode a fire-maned lion to the palace to return his orders to the emperor.

Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue stayed at this big inn in the city to discuss the next step.

Ye Fan planned to see if there were any fourth-order Martial King-level mysterious weapons. If there were good ones, he would buy one or two to enhance his combat power.

By the way, I purchased a batch of charcoal for heating, high-level protective clothing, strong vitality wine, etc. to keep out the cold in the freezing ancient land of ice.

Gu Xinyue needs to make some preparations in advance for the Beast Emperor Pavilion to arrive at Zixuan Imperial City.

The most important thing is to buy land and relocate people.

The price of land in the imperial city is extremely expensive, and every inch of land costs one hundred thousand yuan stones. The price is frighteningly high, with one acre of land costing one hundred thousand yuan stones. The wealth that Beast Emperor Pavilion has accumulated over the past decades of hard work is not enough to buy land.

Gu Xinyue could only consider outside the imperial city, planning to visit nearby towns and buy a piece of cheap land so that she could settle the tens of thousands of people in the Beast King Pavilion.

The two discussed it and decided to split up.

Regardless of whether these are done or not, we will meet again in ten days. Then we set off together to the ancestral bone burial ground in the Ice Wasteland to find the mammoth soul fire.
