Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave novel Chapter 87

Flying chariots were uncommon in the empire because they cost as much as a top-grade mysterious weapon.

Another reason they were rarely seen was that a top-grade mysterious weapon could enhance a refiner's strength while a flying chariot was only a means of transport.

As such, none of the households in the C County where the Luo family was from would spend that sort of money on a flying chariot.

Only places with wealth, like the Imperial Capital, were flying chariots commonplace.

As the enormous chariot hovered, slowly descending from the air, Zen stood awestruck at the sight. This was the first chariot of this size he ever saw!

Other disciples that were waiting were used to seeing them and stood up when they saw the huge chariot approaching. It was time for them to set out.

The enormous flying chariot docked next to the Bluesky Parking Ground, and a pontoon bridge extended from its side to the edge of the ground. A few people were disembarking from the flying chariot waiting near the pontoon bridge.

The disciples of the Cloud Sect waiting on the ground handed their tokens to the checkers. After tickets were checked, the disciples strode across the bridge and climbed aboard the flying chariot.

Zen followed the crowd. When he walked up to the checkers, he presented his token. The checkers appeared surprised when they read Zen was just at the marrow refining level, but they didn't make any comments. After examining the token, they motioned Zen to board the flying chariot.

After that, Zen crossed the pontoon bridge and boarded the flying chariot.

Inside, the chariot was spacious, with rows of seats along the walls that were fixed to the floor. Zen found a place in a corner and sat down.

Underfoot, a tremor was felt by the passengers as the massive chariot lifted off.

Passengers sitting in window seats could see all of the Cloud Sect as they rose in the air.

Mountains rose up, meeting the skyline and extending endlessly in a continuous line. The Cloud Sect made up a quarter of the Imperial Capital, but adding the mountain range that lay behind the Cloud Sect, made it larger than the whole Imperial Capital!

Just then, Zen saw a black mountain.

At the Cloud Sect, most of the mountains were green with thick foliage, which made the black one stand out from the rest.

'Hell Mountain, ' Zen whispered in his mind.

Sean had described Hell Mountain as being completely black with constant gray smoke rising, and a sulfurous smell, that appeared as hell from a distance.

Somewhere, within that mountain range was Yan, his younger sister.

Zen stared at the mountain out the window for as far as his eye could see, eager to see everything there. Soon, he smiled bitterly. 'Have I gone mad? I may be at the marrow refining level, and, true, my hearing and eyesight have improved, but, how could I possibly think I could see things in that mountain from up here?'
