Chapter 316: Real-name system is also required in other worlds?
Half a month later!
The boundless sea surface was so vast that even with Chu Ning's eyesight and consciousness, he still couldn't see the end.
East China Sea.
If other regions are mainly plains and mountains, with occasional lakes and rivers, then the East China Sea region is mainly sea. On the endless ocean, many islands and continents stand tall.
The flying boat was flying over the sea. Suddenly, waves appeared on the calm sea surface. The next moment, a bloody mouth appeared from the sea surface, trying to swallow the flying boat into its mouth.
Swoosh! A beam of light shot out from the front of the flying boat, piercing the bloody mouth, leaving a bloody hole, and the flying boat passed through the bloody hole.
On the surface of the sea, blood appeared like a blooming flower bud, and soon dyed most of the surrounding sea red.
Chu Ning walked out of the flying boat, looked at the huge monster floating on the sea, grabbed with his right hand, and a green demon pill fell into his palm.
This was the third sea monster he encountered that day, and all of them were at the early Nascent Soul stage.
There are rumors in the outside world that traveling in the East China Sea is extremely dangerous. Now he has experienced it.
The sea may seem calm, but there may be a siren lurking beneath it.
"We still have to use the teleportation array."
Before Chu Ning came, he already knew that there was a special place in the East China Sea. There were teleportation arrays on many islands, and monks could teleport back and forth between other islands through the teleportation arrays.
This can prevent low-level monks from being attacked by sirens while walking on the sea. However, during sea storms, the energy in the entire East China Sea is unstable and the teleportation array cannot be used.
Land on the sea continent!
This is the nearest sea continent after entering the East China Sea from the Jinglan Territory.
Chu Ning piloted the flying boat and landed over a city on Denghai Continent. The cultivators below were not too surprised.
This is considered a transit station for cultivators from other realms to enter and exit. Not only Nascent Soul cultivators, but even Spiritual Transformation cultivators often appear here.
After Chu Ning entered the city, he found that there were still ordinary people in this city. Ordinary people lived in the inner city, while the monks lived in the outer city.
Outer city, the monks’ market.
Chu Ning entered the street, and a child shouted along the street: "A detailed map of the East China Sea. In addition to all the islands in the East China Sea, there are also some dangerous sea areas marked. It only costs 500 spirit stones."
Chu Ning was a little surprised to hear the kid's offer. In the Central Region, everyone used spirit crystals, and he was used to it. This was the first time he saw someone talking about spirit stones after coming to the Central Region for so long.
What surprised Chu Ning even more was that this child was just an ordinary person and had not even reached the Qi Condensation stage.
"Give me a map."
Chu Ning called out to the child and bought a jade slip from him.
"Sir, would you like to buy an instant pass? With an instant pass, you can be the first to know any major events in the East China Sea."
When the child saw Chu Ning take out the spirit crystal, his eyes lit up and he continued to sell it.
Instant communication? Know the major events in the East China Sea at the first time?
Chu Ning was really a little surprised. There is such a treasure in the East China Sea? "It's not expensive. Only 1 spirit crystal is enough."
1 Spirit Crystal.
This price is indeed not expensive for Chu Ning.
"Okay, buy one then."
When the child heard Chu Ning wanted to buy something, he smiled happily: "Master, please follow me."
Chu Ning followed the child around the market, and when he saw the child stop in front of a shop, the corners of his mouth twitched.
It seems that this kid is a middleman.
Sihai Trading Company.
Chu Ning walked in, and the child was already shouting, "Sir, there is an adult who wants to buy an instant pass."
An old man walked out of the store and glanced at Chu Ning. The old man's attitude immediately became enthusiastic and he quickly came forward to greet him.
"Senior, do you want to buy an instant pass?"
When doing business, one has to consider the person's situation and serve him differently. Chu Ning could understand the attitude of the shopkeeper, as he realized that he was a Nascent Soul cultivator.
When the child saw the shopkeeper's expression, he looked a little nervous. In the past, when he brought adults to the store, the shopkeeper was not so enthusiastic.
"This kid said that the instant communication can keep track of important events happening in the East China Sea at any time?"
"To be honest, senior, if it is a normal instant communication, there will be a three-day delay. If it happens today, it will be transmitted via the instant communication no later than three days."
Facing the powerful Yuanying master, the shopkeeper did not dare to hide anything, especially since this man gave him the feeling that he was not an ordinary Yuanying master.
"First, tell me what this instant communication is."
Chu Ning had a guess in his mind. The shopkeeper took out an enlarged version of the jade slip from the counter. Unlike the smooth surface of the jade slip, this enlarged version of the jade slip also had runes on it.
"This is a treasure that our company has researched with the help of dozens of formation masters. When something big happens in the East China Sea, our company will use a special method to transmit it to this jade slip. Senior, as long as you put your spiritual consciousness into it, you can check it."
After listening to the shopkeeper's explanation, Chu Ning immediately thought of the Internet.
Isn't this equivalent to having another news website? Sihai Trading Company is responsible for collecting news and publishing it on the website, while they use this jade slip to check the news on the website.
Three days is not a very timely matter. If it is really a big event, we can hear about it without using this jade slip.
The reason why Sihai Trading Company promoted this thing in the East China Sea is because of the geographical particularity of the East China Sea, and the flow of information is not as fast as in other areas.
"Senior, if nothing major happens, our company will also announce some interesting things, the movements of some powerful people, and some information about the geniuses of various sects."
The shopkeeper noticed that Chu Ning didn't seem to be very interested, so he paid attention to Chu Ning's expression while introducing him.
"Can't this time be shortened?"
"Senior, our Sihai Trading Company has stores in various places, but we cannot guarantee that we will be the first to know the news. It is said to be three days, but in fact it is almost one or two days."
"If you want timeliness, you can buy a more advanced instant communication, but it's expensive."
The shopkeeper didn't think that even a Nascent Soul cultivator could afford it.
"Tell me about it?"
"One thousand spirit crystals for each one, and one hundred spirit crystals must be paid every ten years, otherwise there will be no more news after ten years."
According to the general situation in the world of cultivators, there are not many Nascent Soul cultivators who can take out a thousand spirit crystals, and even fewer who can spend a thousand spirit crystals to buy instant communication.
What's more, one has to pay one hundred spirit crystals every ten years. Even a powerful god-transforming expert would probably not buy it.
As far as he knew, only more than twenty of these advanced instant communications had been sold so far.
"It's so expensive, what's the difference between the two?" Chu Ning frowned and asked.
"Advanced instant communication. For any major event that happens in the East China Sea, you will receive news within one day. If there is no major event, there will be ten pieces of gossip about some sects or Tianjiao disciples every month."
The shopkeeper smiled slightly, and Chu Ning understood. It was gossip.
"In addition, in order to give back to customers who use the advanced instant communication service, if a customer encounters something important and finds it valuable, they can send it to our company through the instant communication service. The company will pay spiritual crystals based on the value of the information."
"That's good."
Chu Ning nodded. The elders of Sihai Trading Company had good business acumen and knew the value of information.
"Is it only useful in the East China Sea?"
"It can only be used in the East China Sea at present, but our company's formation master has already started researching other regions. It won't be long before all the central regions can use it."
Chu Ning just listened to the shopkeeper's words, which were just empty promises.
He himself is also a formation master. Although he does not know the principle behind the instant communication of Sihai Trading Company, it is definitely not simple. If it can be expanded to other regions, it cannot be sold only in the East China Sea.
"Give me a high-class one."
Chu Ning can afford one thousand spirit crystals.
The shopkeeper was very happy. Over the years, many customers had asked about the advanced instant communication system, but no one had actually purchased it.
It seems that the senior in front of him has a greater background than he imagined.
The boy next to him was completely stunned at this moment. This adult wanted to buy advanced instant communication for one thousand spirit crystals, so he could get a commission of 10 spirit crystals.
10 spirit crystals!
Thinking of this number, the boy's body trembled with excitement.
"Senior, please follow me."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The shopkeeper led Chu Ning into the store. Chu Ning asked curiously, "What's wrong with this kid?"
"Senior, you want to ask, this child is just an ordinary person, why did he appear in the monks' market?"
The shopkeeper seemed to know what Chu Ning wanted to ask, and sighed, "Senior should not be from the East Sea. The East Sea is different from other regions. The sea monsters in the East Sea often cause trouble, especially after every sea storm. The sea monsters have not eaten for a thousand years, and many sea monsters will attack island cities. In order to prevent the sea monsters from attacking, the monks live in the outer city near the sea."
"Some big cities are better off, but some small cities are often attacked by sea monsters, and the monks in the city need to hold out until other strong men come to support them, otherwise the city will be destroyed and everyone will die."
"This child's father was a foundation-building cultivator who died in the last siege by the sea monster. According to the rules of the East Sea, the descendants of cultivators who died while resisting the siege by the sea monster should be treated with respect."
"All ordinary people living in the inner city are descendants of monks. Some are descendants of monks who died, and some are descendants of monks who are still alive."
After listening to the shopkeeper's explanation, Chu Ning was silent for a while. The descendants of these monks lived in the inner city, which could not only prevent them from being attacked by sea monsters, but also allow the monks in the outer city to fight desperately against the sea monsters.
Because behind them are their relatives. If the city is broken, their relatives will become food for the sirens.
Chu Ning thought of the scene when the senior came to Chengshan Territory to recruit Tang Ruowei. That senior was obviously too easy to talk to.
Is it possible that the East China Sea is also short of cultivators, which is why they are so easy to talk to?
If the talented disciples from the Lower Realm knew the situation in the East China Sea, I am afraid that most of them would not choose the East China Sea.
The records about the East China Sea that he had seen in Dan Territory did mention the Sirens, but they did not provide a detailed description of the situation in the East China Sea.
He originally guessed that although there were sirens in the East China Sea, the cultivators in the East China Sea should have the upper hand, but now it seems that this is not the case.
If the cultivators from the East Sea gain the upper hand, the sea monsters will not have the chance to attack the city.
"This child has no talent for cultivation, but he is unwilling to give up. If a person without talent wants to cultivate, he can only buy Marrow Cleansing Pills. One Marrow Cleansing Pill costs 10 Spirit Crystals. Senior, you have fulfilled the conditions for this child this time."
Marrow cleansing pill.
As an alchemist, Chu Ning naturally knew about the Marrow Cleansing Pill.
It enables people who do not have the qualifications to practice to practice.
However, the Marrow Cleansing Pill can only allow those who do not have the aptitude to practice to practice, but their aptitude is extremely poor. If there is no subsequent opportunity, it will be difficult to even break through the foundation.
After a while, the shopkeeper took out a purple instant channel, which had many more runes on it than the ordinary ones before.
"Senior, this kind of instant communication needs to be activated by a drop of blood. After activation, only the senior's spiritual consciousness can enter."
"good."
Chu Ning did not hesitate and dripped a drop of blood on the jade slip. The blood flowed along the rune texture on the surface of the jade slip. When it flowed to the last position of the rune, the entire jade slip shone with purple light.
"Senior, you can now put your spiritual consciousness into it."
The shopkeeper reminded him, and Chu Ning put his consciousness into the jade slip and saw a message.
This message was sent seven days ago.
[The Yuanlong Ranking has undergone another major change. Chu Ning, a disciple of Danyu Danshan Sect, has made the list and is ranked twelfth.]
Chu Ning didn't expect that the first message he saw was related to him.
Chu Ning could understand why his information would appear in this instant communication. The Yuanlong List was a ranking list of all Nascent Soul cultivators in the Central Region, and the East China Sea was naturally included in it.
"Senior, every user of the instant communication has a code name. You can choose a code name. Once the code name is determined, it cannot be changed. In this way, when you upload information, our company will know that it is you."
The shopkeeper explained to Chu Ning some of the usage rules of Instant Messenger, including how to upload information.
Chu Ning was also operating his spiritual sense, and as for the code name, he chose the number without hesitation: 9527.
Paying tribute to a senior.
"Senior, could you please tell me your name?"
Chu Ning glanced at the shopkeeper. What did he mean? He wanted to use a real-name system? "If you upload some important information and it is adopted by our company, we will pay you spiritual crystals..."
When the shopkeeper saw Chu Ning's expression, he knew that the senior must have misunderstood and hurriedly explained.
"This instant pass is bound. If your company owes spiritual crystals, I will take the instant pass to your company's shop and use it to get the spiritual crystals."
"Yes... yes."
The shopkeeper knew that this senior did not want to reveal his true identity, and most of the other customers who bought the advanced instant communication system also made the same choice.
The business wants to know the identities of these customers, but these customers are unwilling to do so, and the business will not force them to do so.
I suffered from the real-name system in my previous life, and now you want me to use the real-name system in this life? What a pipe dream.
Chu Ning paid the spirit crystal and walked out of the store, but stopped at the door of the store and glanced at the child still standing in the store.
"Little guy, these two bottles of medicine are for you."
He took out two bottles of pills from the storage bag, both of which were needed in the Qi Condensation Stage. To be honest, only Chu Ning could do this. If it were any other alchemist in the Nascent Soul Stage, they might not be able to take them out.
The child was stunned when he heard Chu Ning's words. The shopkeeper who followed him hurriedly urged him, "Why don't you thank the senior quickly?"
"Thank...thank you, sir."
The child woke up as if from a dream. He excitedly took the medicine bottle and was about to kneel down to Chu Ning. Chu Ning raised his finger and the child just wouldn't kneel down.
"Once you have chosen the path of cultivation, never give up no matter how difficult it is."
Giving the pill to the child was just a casual act. After leaving these words, Chu Ning's figure disappeared at the door of the shop.
At the end of Fangshi Street.
Many monks were queuing up to be teleported to other places. After Chu Ning appeared, many monks made way.
Yuanying-stage warriors are qualified to cut in line.
However, just as Chu Ning was about to step onto the teleportation array, the sound of bells suddenly rang throughout the city.
Huh! The bell rang, and all the monks' expressions changed instantly.
A siren is attacking the city!
Chu Ning's expression also changed, and his figure flashed and he stepped directly onto the teleportation array.
