Chapter 362 360: Obtaining Information on the 9 Great Realms, Discovering an Acquaintance in the Arena

Her future was limitless.

"Grandpa, that Lord is so amazing," Ni'Er's eyes widened after receiving the inheritance, as if she had just witnessed the world's largest and most magnificent meteor shower in her mind. "He passed on Body Refining, Soul Refining, and so many things I've never even heard of..."

Indeed, Jiang Qiu had infused a great deal of basic cultivation knowledge into the inheritance he left behind.

However, none of it was particularly core content. It was more like an analysis of certain principles. If one possessed a certain degree of talent, they could use this information to figure out how to cultivate.

It was something he had given away casually.

"Ni'Er, that Lord has left us a priceless treasure," Old Tu Tou had also glimpsed a bit of the Cultivation Technique's content, but he quickly set it aside. "If, one day, you can cultivate to the highest Realm mentioned in this Cultivation Technique, you must spread the Lord's name throughout the Desolate Realm.

At the very least, make his name ring out within the bounds of Celestial Star Oasis City."

It wasn't that he was unwilling to accept the inheritance, but that he was already too old and not worth the effort of cultivation. Furthermore, a part of the inheritance he had accessed recorded Jiang Qiu's name and basic identity.

That's right, Lord Jiang was a member of the Human Race.

Perhaps their perspective had limited their imagination, as they had never known such a powerful member of the Human Race existed in the Outer Realm. It turned out that humans really could exist as nobility in the world.

'Just what powerful Realm must one reach to accomplish such a thing...'

"Mhm, I will follow in Lord Jiang's footsteps," Ni'Er nodded with a smile, her eyes twinkling. "Just like chasing the path of a shooting star."

"Hahaha, good, good."

....

Jiang Qiu had already left Little Oasis City Number 777 in a flying vehicle arranged by the manager of the local Celestial Star Shop branch. He knew nothing of what happened afterward, nor did he want to.

To him, spending a few Yin Yang Coins was nothing. It was probably on the level of buying a small toy from a street stall. After all, back in the Netherworld Dynasty Capital of the Yin Yang Great Realm, a single night's lodging cost one Yin Yang Coin.

He currently had over nine thousand Yin Yang Coins on him. It would be difficult to spend them all through normal means. The only exception would be if he needed to use functions like teleportation, which were very expensive.

However, he didn't need to rely on external objects for teleportation. He had mastered a portion of the Space-Time Law himself. Once his Spirit Charm was sufficiently replenished, he could leave the Desolate Realm directly.

Before long, he arrived at Celestial Star Oasis City. This was the top oasis city in the entire Desolate Realm. At a glance, it looked like a real continent, with rolling mountains and trickling rivers. Looking down from the sky, it was truly a vast expanse of fertile land.

It was hard to imagine that this was just an oasis in the middle of the Desert Sea.

As the flying vehicle descended, Jiang Qiu quickly witnessed the prosperity of this place. WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH—countless types of flying vehicles shot past overhead. It was clearly busy and crowded, yet none of them collided. All sorts of different races lived here, and nobles in various styles of clothing walked the streets.

The streets were lined with towering skyscrapers, looking even more advanced than Blue Star Technology. Yet, they also exhibited a rugged aura unique to the Desolate Realm. The roads and sidewalks were always extremely wide.

It seemed they weren't worried about running out of space in the oasis.

"Respected Lord from the Outer Realm, this is the Celestial Star Bank," the pilot of the flying vehicle said as he escorted Jiang Qiu off the vehicle and into a hundred-story skyscraper that stood out from the rest. "You can exchange your Yin Yang Coins for Primordial Initial Coins inside."

"Alright."

Just as he nodded, several service staff who had been waiting for some time hurried over, jogging with quick, urgent steps. They were the people the branch manager had notified. The one in the lead was a humanoid: "Respected Lord, please, come inside with me."

The handover was seamless. The moment he stepped out of the flying vehicle, he was led into the skyscraper. Then, he naturally exchanged one Yin Yang Coin for one million Primordial Basic Coins.

DING—

"One million has been credited to your account."

The watch-like projection device vibrated and displayed a message. Jiang Qiu nodded in satisfaction. "That was fast."

"Yes, my Lord. The money is deposited directly into your account with no delay," the service staff member replied with a smile. "My Lord, would you like to exchange for more Primordial Basic Coins?"

The Primordial Basic Coin was the most widely circulated currency in the entire Great World Community, but not everyone wanted to exchange for it. This was because the currency possessed very low cultivation properties, making it far less beneficial than a high-grade currency like the Yin Yang Coin.

In other words, currencies like the Yin Yang Coin were rare resources, whereas the Primordial Basic Coin was not so rare. Now, it was even more common, existing as a string of data uploaded to the network.

That sense of preciousness was greatly diminished.

"No, but I would like to see if this money is enough to buy some basic information about Celestial Star Oasis City, as well as some Coordinate Maps for the Great Realms."

Jiang Qiu opened the network and started making purchases with his personal account. In a short while, he had already obtained the content he wanted.

Ten thousand was spent to purchase the basic information on Celestial Star Oasis City—things like maps, history, and so on. It was directly uploaded into his mind through the projection device, and he received it all.

It wasn't expensive. Just very basic content.

He also spent one million to buy a void distribution map showing the layout of a vast number of worlds centered around the Desolate Realm. It mainly encompassed the layout of over ten thousand worlds, in a way that was impossible to describe—as if it was a distribution that transcended space and time, and was thus incompatible with normal description.

The most conspicuous part of it was the map of the Yin Yang Great Realm. It was the largest and strongest world in the nearby Void Realm, its influence radiating out to thousands, if not tens of thousands, of life-bearing worlds.

Next was the Coordinate Map for the Nine Venerable Great Realm, which he had needed for a long time. It was also the most expensive, costing a shocking five million.

A Coordinate Map was equivalent to a marker, allowing one to set a fixed teleportation anchor point; it wasn't for finding a destination by looking at a picture.

One must understand that Laws cannot be activated within the void, meaning no one can move freely within it.

Therefore, before entering the void, one must first establish their destination. The Coordinate Map serves as the destination's anchor point. By entering the void using the Coordinate Map, one would be teleported to their desired location.

The reason this thing was so expensive was because it was extremely far from the Desolate Realm, almost spanning more than half of the Primordial World Community.

"Of course, my Lord," the service staff member remained respectful. "If you would like to look around the city, I can also recommend some places for you. For example, the Celestial Star Arena, which is famous throughout the Desolate Realm and even many worlds in the Outer Realm. Soon, there will be a duel between Dao Entry Realm fighters. It will be very exciting..."

"No need. I don't like watching such things."

Jiang Qiu waved his hand in refusal and then left the Celestial Star Bank as the staff member saw him off.

He prepared to use the Coordinate Map for the Nine Venerable Great Realm to teleport there, but he suddenly discovered that the Space-Time Law in this area was extremely firm. He was unable to traverse it.

In other words, this was a no-teleportation zone.

Frowning, Jiang Qiu opened the network and searched: "Why can't you fly in Celestial Star Oasis City?"

The search engine quickly returned an answer, along with a series of incredibly eye-catching advertisements, all placed by the Celestial Star Arena—a Dao Entry Realm duel, Human Race versus Fire Lizard Race.

Hm?

Seeing the words "Human Race," Jiang Qiu's thoughts unconsciously came to a halt. He felt that the Human Race in the Desolate Realm was almost abject to the extreme. Even in this prosperous Celestial Star Oasis City, he hadn't seen a single noble-like human.

Yet under such circumstances, there was actually a Dao Entry Realm human fighting someone in the Celestial Star Arena?

A little curious, he clicked on the ad. A fluorescent screen popped out of the watch-like device, displaying the holographic figures of an old man and a red lizardman.

The moment he saw that old man, Jiang Qiu's pupils contracted sharply. He almost couldn't suppress the Dragon Race bloodline within him, and a pressure at the Half-Step Fusion Realm erupted from him like a gale, scattering the nearby pedestrians in fear.

He tried his best to restrain the emotions surging within him, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists. 'How could he be in here?'
