"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Deng immediately realized something was wrong.
She straightened up suddenly and stared at the male cultivator in front of her suspiciously, "Didn't you say that spirit stones are useless? Then why are you asking me for them?"
“…”
The male cultivator was speechless for a moment, then angrily said, "You poor bastard from the lower realm, why do you care so much? Answer this immortal's questions honestly!"
As he spoke, a terrifying pressure surged out of his body and attacked Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng directly.
However, after a long time, the two people under pressure still did not react at all.
Although they had just passed the tribulation and were still newcomers in the fairy world, they both had special physiques and their strong physiques easily offset the external pressure, so it had no effect on them.
Jiang Deng at least knew that the male cultivator was threatening them out of anger and shame.
Baili Chengfeng was completely confused. Instead, he asked in confusion, "Excuse me, sir, why do you want to release your aura? We are a pair of Taoist companions who love each other. No matter how much you release your aura, we will not consider it. So, I apologize."
Male cultivator: “…”
Not only did his originally handsome face gradually become hideous, but the veins on his forehead were also throbbing.
Is this person mentally ill?
The Immortal Realm has always been a place of no love and affection. As a guardian of the Immortal Realm, how could he possibly take the lead in violating the rules? No, he simply looked down on these two poor people!
Seeing that the male cultivator was almost driven crazy by Baili Chengfeng, Jiang Deng realized a problem.
She just has low emotional intelligence, but Chengfeng definitely doesn't understand the ways of the world!
To prevent Chengfeng from being beaten to death for saying something he shouldn't have, Jiang Deng decisively stood in front of Baili Chengfeng and reminded him, "Well, I've given you all the money, so hurry up and tell me about the fairyland!"
Male cultivator: “…”
It's fine if the man has a problem with his brain, but why is the woman also sick?!
A guard nearby, sensing his colleagues were about to die of rage over the man and woman who had ascended today, stepped forward decisively and dismissed them succinctly, "The lower realm consists of three thousand great worlds, billions of worlds. These three regions of the Immortal Realm each accommodate cultivators who have ascended from different worlds."
As he spoke, the guard pointed to three passages behind him. "The first path leads to the Small Thousand Area, where all the cultivators who ascended from small worlds are located. The second path leads to the Middle Thousand Area, where the cultivators who were born and raised in the Immortal Realm reside. The third path leads to the Great Thousand Area, where all the cultivators who ascended from large worlds are located."
After introducing the situation in the fairyland, the guard asked Jiang Deng and the other two, "What about you? Where are you from?"
"Ten Realms."
Jiang Deng didn't intend to lie. After all, if something went wrong because of lying, it would be more trouble than it was worth.
After hearing Jiang Deng's answer, the guard smiled. "Fortunately, you were honest and didn't lie. If you lied about being a cultivator from another world and entered an area you shouldn't have entered, huh."
Jiang Deng couldn't help but wonder, "What will happen then?"
"Nothing much," the guard explained calmly. "It simply passed through the entrance to another area and was discovered and destroyed by the Heavenly Dao. This way, after it disintegrates, it can still provide some immortal energy to the Immortal Realm, making one last contribution."
Jiang Deng: “…”
Baili Chengfeng's EQ was obviously even lower than Jiang Deng's. He asked in confusion, "It sounds like you all know where we're from. In that case, is there any point in asking?"
"There are always some people who like to be clever. If someone dies from lying, the immortal world will have one less person, which will save some immortal energy," the guard continued, explaining, "After all, after ascending, cultivators have extremely long lifespans. The immortal world is so small, so the fewer people there are, the better."
Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng: "..."
I give up. It seems that many monks will die because of this little thing.
Who would have thought that these people had survived extremely dangerous natural disasters, but in the end they would die because of a little lie they told?
While answering questions from Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng, the guard searched the map he carried with him. "Okay, we found it. The Ten Realms is one of the billions of small worlds. You take the first path to enter the Small Thousand Areas."
As he spoke, the guard pointed out the passage to the two of them.
Jiang Deng didn't leave immediately. She wondered, "If we stay in Xiaoqian District long enough, can we enter the other two areas through other passages without getting hurt?"
"Of course you can," the guard said with a malicious smile, "but only if you have an introduction from an immortal in another area and use the passage they control. Otherwise, you will still be torn apart by the Heavenly Dao."
“Tsk.”
Jiang Deng couldn't help but frown, feeling that the fairy world was not as equal as she thought. It was divided so clearly with rules and regulations, and it seemed completely devoid of human touch.
Without staying any longer, Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng followed the direction indicated by the guard and headed towards Xiaoqian District.
After walking for a while, the fog in front of me gradually dissipated and the view became clear.
What appeared before them were extremely magnificent rivers and mountains, vast plains, and endless mountains...the scenery was picturesque!
The most amazing thing is that the world is still filled with abundant fairy energy. This fairy energy is different from spiritual energy and is several times more concentrated than the spiritual energy that has been condensed into substance.
Jiang Deng didn't even need to practice. With every breath he took, he could feel his cultivation improving.
Jiang Deng simply couldn't imagine that the poorest small district was already so prosperous. What would the scene be like in the better middle and upper thousand districts?
Thinking about it, I couldn't help feeling refreshed.
The next moment, an extremely fast figure flashed in sight.
Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng noticed that a person floated down from the top of a nearby mountain. They didn't see how he moved, but he came in front of them in the blink of an eye.
This was an elderly man with a white beard, his eyes narrowed into slits, his facial features slightly mean, and the look of a profiteer. He stroked his long beard and looked at Jiang Deng and Baili Chengfeng with a smile.
"Haha, you two should be newly ascended, right?"
Jiang Deng said vigilantly: "Yes, what's the matter? If not, stay out of the way."
Although she was a little confused about what the old man's conspiracy was, she could always run away if she couldn't defeat him. At worst, she could hide in the Eight Gates World with Chengfeng, and the other party would be unable to do anything to them!
"Hey," the old man rubbed his hands and explained in a good-natured manner, "Fellow Daoist, don't be so formal! This is what I mean. Let me briefly introduce it to you. The fairy world is different from the lower world. The currency in the fairy world is fairy crystals. Without them, you can't take a single step!"
"Oh," Jiang Deng asked calmly, "So?"
