Chapter 250: Chapter 158: The 9 Great Ecosystems and the Holy Spirit

You Weiwei didn’t say what Flower Venerable wanted Zhong Yi to help with.

But it was obvious that the favor Flower Venerable sought from Zhong Yi was related to the Healing Ability of his Order Beast.

Flower Venerable had been gaining power rapidly in recent years. Despite not being the youngest of the four Venerables, she and Insect Venerable had always been at the forefront.

Before Sleep Emperor’s last breakthrough, both Flower Venerable and Insect Venerable had been his strongest rivals.

Having Flower Venerable from Beihan City owe Zhong Yi a favor was a good thing, both for Zhong Yi and for Starlight City.

Even a Celestial Destiny Seeker like You Weiwei would find it difficult to make Flower Venerable owe them a favor.

And yet, Zhong Yi was already capable of making a veteran Celestial Destiny Seeker like Flower Venerable personally seek him out for help.

Taking the phone You Weiwei handed over, Star Night spoke softly.

After hearing Star Night’s voice, Wen Tao briefly explained the current situation.

Star Night’s voice was usually gentle and composed, but this time, Wen Tao could clearly hear a hint of emotion in it.

"Xiaoyi certainly has a way with people, winning over a Five-finger Creator from another city."

"It’s been a while since I’ve been to Longya City, anyway. With Elder Cui there, you should be safe even if word gets out that you’ve contacted Tao En and plan to take him with you."

"When I get there, I’ll help Xiaoyi bring Tao En to Starlight City."

"If Longya City doesn’t treasure its own Five-finger Peak Creator, then we in Starlight City will treasure him for them."

"Ah Tao, give the phone to Xiaoyi. I want to chat with our Starlight City’s big star."

The Star Emperor was the mightiest figure in the Heroic City of Starlight City and one of the three Strongest in the Xin Xia Alliance.

The rank of Peak of Ten Thousand Nations represented the very pinnacle of power in the world.

Zhong Yi was both curious about and respectful of Star Night.

As the one in charge of Starlight City, Star Night’s personal attitude toward the new generation of Celestial Destiny Seekers was effectively the city’s attitude.

Judging by the way Lin Zhuo, Wen Tao, You Weiwei, and the others had spoken of Star Night before, she was like a warm matriarch, a pillar of support for them all.

Taking the phone from Wen Tao, Zhong Yi spoke before Star Night had the chance, offering a greeting.

"Hello, Senior Star Night. I’m Zhong Yi."

Hearing Zhong Yi’s greeting, Star Night’s gentle, light laughter came from the other end of the line.

"I’ve been exploring a Secret Realm, Xiaoyi. I only found out you’d gone to Longya City after I got out."

"Wen Tao just told me what happened over in Longya City. I’ll be heading there to meet you all within the next few days."

"Do whatever you think is right. I’ll handle the consequences."

"Your Talent is special, different from other Celestial Destiny Seekers. You are the future of Starlight City."

"Our city’s future shouldn’t have to bow down or be wronged by anyone."

Star Night’s gentle voice carried an undeniable power.

And at its core, this undeniable power was incredibly warm.

It instantly deepened Zhong Yi’s sense of belonging to Starlight City, and he understood the high regard in which Star Night held him.

’Star Night truly saw him as the future of Starlight City and was placing great hope in him.’

"You’ve earned two Divine Origin Value points in a First Level Secret Realm now, Xiaoyi, so you should have some idea about the secrets they hold."

"Until you are absolutely confident in your abilities, do *not* enter the Divine Origin Slaughter Secret Realm."

"Otherwise, you’ll just become prey for the prodigies of other worlds to toy with and slaughter."

"You probably haven’t unlocked the Divine Origin Store yet. Divine Origin Value itself isn’t transferable, but items redeemed from the store can be gifted to others."

"When you get back to Starlight City, I’ll give you something I’ve redeemed from the Divine Origin Store. It should help you better understand why Secret Realms exist."

"Our world is but a grain of sand in a vast ocean. It’s not even included within the Nine Great Ecosystems, so it’s impossible for a Holy Spirit acknowledged by one of those ecosystems to appear here."

"Remember this, Xiaoyi. You can be headstrong, and you can be ruthless when necessary, but you must never slack off when it comes to improving your strength."

"Alright, that’s enough talk for a phone call. You’re still new to all this, so don’t put too much pressure on yourself."

’Her words meant she had participated in a Divine Origin Slaughter Secret Realm before.’

’And she must have earned enough Divine Origin Value to unlock the Divine Origin Store.’

This gave Zhong Yi a completely new appreciation for Star Night’s power.

’It meant that Star Night was capable of Tier Jumping—defeating opponents of a higher Tier.’

’Otherwise, it would be impossible to earn Divine Origin Value in a normal Secret Realm, let alone kill prodigies from other worlds in a Divine Origin Slaughter Secret Realm.’

’But what were the Nine Great Ecosystems and Holy Spirits acknowledged by them?!’

This was the first time since arriving in the Guardian Beast World that Zhong Yi had heard such foreign terms.

Zhong Yi wasn’t in a hurry to ask Star Night.

’Since Star Night had brought them up, she would surely explain them later.’

’For now, all Zhong Yi had to do was focus on his own path, one step at a time.’

Frost Day lived up to his name; his personality was cold and aloof.

He took the phone from Star Night, told Zhong Yi that the Dragon Blood Wine and Dragon Milk Pudding in Longya City were worth trying, and then hung up.

Zhong Yi had just been wondering how he was going to get Tao En back to Starlight City. He was worried they would run into trouble on the way.

For instance, on Wu Qing’s journey from Zhuxue City to Starlight City, if Zhong Yi hadn’t arranged for Zheng Yufeng to escort him, Wu Qing would have likely been assassinated en route by the Mythical Tier expert sent by that old family.
