Chapter 509: Strength Changes Brought by the Improvement of Immortal Resolution

On the deck of the massive flying boat, Lin Chen stood at the front at this moment, looking into the distance.

"Brother Xiao, is your niece still in the room?"

Li Qin walked out of the cabin and saw only Lin Chen standing on the deck, a look of doubt in her eyes.

Her flying boat was not something those ordinary flying boats could compare to. The entire flying boat had an array shield. Even standing on the deck, one wouldn't suffer from airflow impact.

A ten-year-old little girl is at the age of being active. Logically speaking, she would prefer to stay on the deck and look at the surrounding mountain and river scenery. Why would she stay in the cabin all the time?

"Little Yue has a quiet temperament. This is also why I want to take her out to travel, just hoping she can be more cheerful."

Lin Chen explained with a smile. From Hundred-Refinement City to Thousand Machines City, the flying boat had been sailing for three days. And during these three days, except for the first day when Yin Yue stayed on the deck for a while, she spent the rest of the time in the cabin.

There is no such thing as autism in this world, so Lin Chen made up a similar excuse.

"So that's how it is. Then when we arrive in Thousand Machines City, your niece should be able to be more cheerful."

"Oh, why is that?"

"Brother Xiao will know soon."

Li Qin sold a mystery, and at this moment, at the very front of the flying boat, a wonder that made people marvel appeared on the horizon.

First to enter Lin Chen's eyes was a giant city floating in the air. Above the city were two seven-colored rainbows, intersecting in a cross, spanning the east, west, south, and north ends of the giant city.

The style of the entire giant city was completely different from other domains. The buildings were not square, but presented various geometric shapes. High towers stood in great numbers, but these tower tops were not pointed, but huge crystal array formations, as well as giant platforms with high and low overlaps.

The flying boat approached slowly, and Lin Chen also saw that below the giant city stood dozens of pillars forged from crystal. It was precisely these pillars that supported this giant city in the air.

"Is this Thousand Machines City?"

Lin Chen held a look of shock on his face. The feeling this Thousand Machines City gave him was something no other city had. The closer he got, the more he could feel the shock of this giant city.

The entire Thousand Machines City seemed like a massive, incomparably huge mechanical creation endowed with life, full of indescribable "beauty of strange gates."

"People who come to Thousand Machines City for the first time all have the same expression as Brother Xiao."

Li Qin, who was beside him, saw the shocked expression on Lin Chen's face and smiled slightly. By now, she could be certain that Xiao Yan really hadn't been to Thousand Machines City.

"Brother Xiao can call your niece out to take a look."

"She has already come out."

At the cabin entrance, Yin Yue's figure appeared. At this moment, she also walked slowly to the deck. When she saw the wonder of Thousand Machines City in front, she just kept sizing up this Thousand Machines City, but her expression didn't have much change.

Li Qin saw this scene, and this time she completely believed Lin Chen's words in her heart. It seemed that Xiao Yan's niece's temperament really had some problems. A normal child—not one could be so calm when seeing Thousand Machines City.

A quarter of an hour later, the flying boat found a landing point on a huge floating platform near the edge of the city. This platform itself was an airport, mooring all kinds of flying boats. The crystals on the edge of the platform were engraved with runes, which precisely docked with the runes on the flying boat. Accompanied by a slight vibration, the flying boat stopped steadily.

"Brother Xiao, Thousand Machines City is divided into Upper Three, Middle Three Hundred, and Lower Three Thousand!"

Out of the platform, Li Qin introduced the situation of Thousand Machines City to Lin Chen. There are three places at the very top of the entire Thousand Machines City.

They are the Heaven-Craft Pavilion used to host the artifact refining competition, the Thousand Machines Tower that carries the operation of the entire giant city, and the Thousand Machines Sect, which is the hegemon of the Thousand Machines Domain.

Middle Three Hundred... is the place where major forces of the entire Thousand Machines Domain, including Thousand Machines City, reside. For example, the Li family is one of the Middle Three Hundred.

The number of three hundred is a fixed number. It has never changed since the construction of Thousand Machines City. But these three hundred forces have changed hands many times. To lock in one of the three hundred seats in Thousand Machines City, one cannot decline. Once one declines, one will be disqualified from residence.

"Thousand Machines City is big, but living is not easy!"

Lin Chen whispered a sentence. Li Qin, who was leading the way, heard this and had a look of agreement on her face: "Brother Xiao's description is very fitting. Outsiders only see the glory of our Li family and other forces, but they don't know that in order to maintain the position of the three hundred in the city, the family has never dared to have any slack."

"Brother Xiao, my Li family has arrived!"

Li Qin led Lin Chen to land on a platform. Looking from afar, this was just a platform about a hundred feet large. But when passing through the array of the platform, what entered his eyes was a territory of several thousand miles.

In this territory, pavilions and kiosks were everywhere, houses and streets... everything was complete. It was completely the scale of a small city.

"Miss Li, are all these your Li family's?"

"Mm."

Li Qin nodded. Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. Since the Li family's territory was equivalent to a small city, then the other two hundred and more families were also the same. This meant that one Thousand Machines City accommodated three hundred small cities, not counting the territory of the Thousand Machines Sect.

Of course, there were also the three thousand streets and countless markets of the Lower Three Thousand...

"Rumors from the outside say that Thousand Machines City in the Thousand Machines Domain can be equivalent to a domain. Today, I have truly seen it."

Lin Chen sighed. In the jade slip given by his master, there was a description of Thousand Machines City, but what is learned from books is shallow after all. Now seeing it with his own eyes, he was shocked again.

"The journey is exhausting. Brother Xiao might as well go to rest first."

"Good."

Lin Chen nodded. Li Qin personally led Lin Chen and Yin Yue to a guest courtyard of the Li family.

"Our Li family's guest courtyard also has an array, and it is the same as the Thousand Machines Tower, both coming from the Thousand Machines Sect. Brother Xiao can rest assured to live."

Li Qin left this sentence, explained to the servants, and then said goodbye. Lin Chen and Yin Yue entered the courtyard.

"What is the meaning of her last sentence?" Lin Chen looked at Yin Yue and asked curiously.

"Her meaning is that speaking here, you don't need to worry about being peeked at by the Li family's powerhouses."

Yin Yue gave the answer. Lin Chen swept around the surroundings and roughly knew why the Li family arranged an array in the guest courtyard. Those who could become guests of honor of the Li family were at least Innate powerhouses.

Which cultivator doesn't have their own secrets? If they stayed in the Li family's guest courtyard and everything was exposed to the spiritual sense of the Li family's powerhouses, it would be better to live outside.

"This Thousand Machines City makes me feel deeply shocked."

"The Thousand Machines Domain is the largest domain in the Flame Yan Yan Huang Chao. This is unquestionable. And Thousand Machines City can also be considered the earliest giant city built by the Flame Yan Yan Huang Chao."

Yin Yue knew Lin Chen's purpose in saying this, which was nothing more than wanting to know some secrets about Thousand Machines City from her mouth.

"The founder of the Thousand Machines Sect was second only to that one of the Flame Yan Yan Huang Chao back then. After that one condensed the Divine Seal, the founder of the Thousand Machines Sect could no longer enter the God level. But there are rumors that that one's spirit also reached the God level. But it's just rumors. My clan's ancestors didn't have a conclusion on the specifics."

"Spirit reached the God level?"

Lin Chen was a bit shocked. No wonder the Thousand Machines Domain was so vast. He already knew now that there could only be one God-level powerhouse. Looking at it this way, it wasn't that the founder of the Thousand Machines Sect couldn't break through to the God level, but that he was beaten to it.

"After that one of the Flame Yan Yan Huang Chao stepped into the God level, that one of the Thousand Machines Sect came to the Thousand Machines Domain, created the Thousand Machines Sect, and built Thousand Machines City. My clan's ancestors once had a speculation that that one of the Thousand Machines Sect wanted to enter the God level in an alternative way, but obviously failed."

Hearing Yin Yue's words, Lin Chen's pupils shrank: "You mean the founder of the Thousand Machines Sect created the Thousand Machines Sect and built Thousand Machines City, wanting to find an alternative path to enter the God level?"

"Mm." ===== CHAPTER 510 =====
