Chapter 523: Chapter 522 Entering The Second Level

Just before the mountains, there existed some flight of stairs arranged in some parts of the carved mountain leading upwards to the second level. From this, Davis formed an image in his mind of the outline of the city.

If the city could be said to be a big circle, then the first level should be the outer circle which occupies more than 60 percent of the city but since the walls of the city aligned themselves in a straight line like a square, the outer circle which is the outer square should be around no more than 10,000,000 square kilometers.

If this was true, then the second level should occupy the middle square and the third level should occupy the inner square of the city with each of them constructed in an elevated manner respectively.

'This also resembles the territorial integrity of the Magical Beasts. Did they perhaps take inspiration from that since this Empire is surrounded by Magical Beast Mountains?' Davis mused but couldn't find the answer to his question at the moment.

They then arrived at the foot of the mountain and took the flight of stairs as they walked up. 

Similar to every city in the cultivation world he visited, flying was forbidden in the city. Nevertheless, the strong and the people with status could always ignore this rule. 

Even then, Davis's group didn't want to get into trouble, so they were rather low-key and walked the flight of stairs that had thousands of steps.

Once they completed ascending 90% of the flight of stairs, they passed through the white clouds which felt different from the white clouds that were sealing the entire outer square's skies which made people unable to directly enter the second level.

The white clouds here didn't restrict people from entering and once they walked past the white clouds, there were two people standing at the end of the flight of stairs, projecting over an enormous amount of pressure over the group.

'High-Level Law Manifestation Stage Cultivators?' 

The group didn't even bother to stop since Princess Isabella was leading the group in the forefront.

Princess Isabella narrowed her eyes and responded to their act of probing by letting her undulations flare towards them. The mighty martial energy that was omnipresent within her entire veins and body flew out and threatened to suppress them to death.

The semi-solid martial energy was like a viscous liquid, making them immensely shudder. 

The two Sixth Stage Cultivators who held their spears instantly retracted their undulations and did their best to resist and endure the pressure of Princess Isabella.

Just by looking at her figure and beauty, they wanted to prostrate themselves, but with the additional pressure added to them, they fell to their knees as they cried out in pain!

Only then did Princess Isabella retract her martial energy undulations, letting them stand up.

"We apologize for our impudence! Esteemed Martial Cultivator!"

Davis raised his brows at their words. 

This was what came with strength! Almost no one dared to berate or talk back to a person who is plenty of times stronger than them, able to instakill them into bloody meat paste.

This is the deterrence displayed by pure strength!

Princess Isabella nodded her without much of a change in reaction but was inwardly taken aback that she was called a martial cultivator instead of just a cultivator.

'Are Body Tempering cultivators called like that?' She suddenly thought but didn't ponder much but just walked past them as she led with the group.

Davis was astonished to see that there was no toll in this place and only did he realize on a deep level that strength in both quality and quantity forms a deterrence.

After all, according to Danius, the second level was occupied by King Grade Powers, so even if one was an Emperor Grade Power, it became clear that annoying them all through making them pay toll isn't clearly a smart move.

Once they entered the second level, Davis and the others were all inwardly shocked again! 

The skies of the second level were covered with bright yellow clouds, accentuating the sunlight it received from the real skies but that wasn't the entire reason for them to be shocked. 

There were high-rise buildings that extended to the range of 600 meters from the present elevation. Other than that, there were few people in flying boats or mounting magical beasts as they traversed the skies.

When Davis turned back and saw the horizons, he could still see a part of the gate they came in from. Indeed, the gate was 500 meters high, so the gate there should still be visible considering that they had just reached 300 meters high in elevation.

At this time, a person came towards them as she clasped her hands, "Welcome Esteemed Cultivators, are you here to participate in the Conferred King Tournament?"

Davis and Princess Isabella blinked.

There was such a competition?

Princess Isabella shook her head and said to the woman whom she sensed to be a Law Seed Stage Cultivator, "I came to purchase a residence in this place."

The woman's eyes lit up in glee!

Initially, she was just about to recommend them to an Inn that could host them during the duration of the tournament but it now looks like the other party wanted to purchase a residence for them to stay!

"My name is Clara, pleased to make you acquaintance..."

"Isabella..."

She instantly gestured her hand to the front, "Please..."

Meanwhile, Davis and his family were taken aback for a moment before they amiably smiled. She had the same name as their gem.

Davis's eyes flashed with a red glow before it disappeared.

'Clara Yale? Yale Family?' He concluded that the young women did not lie about her name but he didn't know about the Yale Family either, nor would he be just interested because she had the same name as his younger sister.

A few minutes later, after traveling through the clean streets, they entered a small building that was over 100 meters tall and occupied 2 square kilometers of land area. 

Yes, this is a small building because when compared to the other buildings which were expecting extravagantly big, this building could only be considered small.

At the front of the building, there was a banner. This property was an official's office that dealt with matters relating to properties.

"Official Hull, I brought an esteemed cultivator who desires to purchase a residence for their permanent stay."

"Haha! Well done, Clara. As usual, you'll receive one percent commission for your work." A fat man laughed before casting his gaze over to the people behind her.

Davis and the others were in a hall. He looked around and saw the hand-painted lifelike drawings of some people hanged over the hall.

They were all dressed in royal robes and had a stately presence oozing out of them while they sat on a throne, indicating that they were all belonged to the Royal Family.

Their titles were below there for people to see, so he understood that they were all the Emperors of the Ethren Empire, rather comprising of its rich history.

Then, below those emperors, there was another picture of a rather young person. He looked like a prince with his outfit, however, his face was calm and melancholic as if he had seen through everything in his life.

His face was not at all arrogant like the paintings of the emperors above him.

Davis became a little bit curious and read his title.

[Southeastern Region Lord, Third Prince Alexi Ethren]

"The entire southeastern region of the first level and the second level of the city is under his highness, the Third Prince's jurisdiction." The fat man approached them as he said.

He then greeted Princess Isabella with a clasp of his hand and gestured for her to be seated, not bothering about the other cultivators who were behind her.
