"Hey, I'm talking to you. How can you look at me like that? Be careful or I'll dig out your eyes!" The female cultivator in charge of reception was almost attracted by Mu Lingxiao, and she didn't come to her senses until Lai Siyu yelled in dissatisfaction.
The female cultivator has reached the level of Immortal Venerable, while a cultivator at the Immortal Venerable level can only serve as the most basic waiter. This shows the strength of the cultivators here.
"Oh, please follow me!" the female monk said hurriedly and apologetically, then led the group to the counter.
"Uncle Tong, these guests need two upper rooms and two guest rooms."
An old man with white hair and a youthful face at the counter immediately asked with a smile, "How many days will you stay?"
Lai Siyu said: "Two days."
"The upper room is 10,000 high-grade immortal crystals per day, and the guest room is 2,000 high-grade immortal crystals per day. If you are staying for two days, please pay 48,000 high-grade immortal crystals."
Lai Siyu reluctantly took out a storage bracelet. After exploring it with her spiritual sense, she took out some fairy crystals and threw them to the shopkeeper.
Uncle Tong took the storage bracelet and took a look. Damn, it was full of low-grade fairy crystals. The smile on his face froze at that moment.
"Fellow Daoist..."
"What's the point of talking about friends? Just tell me if there's anything missing. If there is, I'll add more for you!"
"The quantity is sufficient, but these are all low-grade immortal crystals..."
Tigress was already in a bad mood, and immediately became furious: "Low-grade immortal crystals are not immortal crystals? Seriously, you are so picky when doing business. Is this what your boss taught you?"
Uncle Tong was worthy of putting away the fairy crystal storage bracelet. This was the first time he had seen such a customer.
This situation is exactly the same as using yuan notes to buy a car worth hundreds of thousands of yuan in China. The money is not lost at all, but it is really annoying.
Tong Shu took out four crystal clear jade slips, pressed seals into them, and handed them to Lai Siyu. Then he said to the nun, "Cui Liu, take the guests to their rooms."
"Yes, distinguished guests, please follow me."
"Wait!" Lai Siyu slammed the table, making Cui Liu and Uncle Tong's hearts tremble. They wondered whether this woman was staying in the hotel or was invited by the inn next door to cause trouble with them.
"Excuse me, fellow Daoist, do you have any other instructions?" Uncle Tong asked carefully.
"Give me back my storage bracelet!"
Uncle Tong immediately transferred the fairy crystals in the storage bracelet to another storage bracelet, and then returned it to Lai Siyu.
Damn, he has been working in the inn for more than a million years, and this is the first time he has seen such a stingy guest.
Forget it, they are open for business and should welcome people with a smile, as long as people don’t lack the rent.
After the group settled in, the old turtle explained the rules of the place to them, and the group couldn't wait to go out for a walk.
Daxue and others, as well as Fuxin, were looking around with great interest, while Gu Youcai, Lai Siyu and Mu Lingxiao were strolling around while listening to the old turtle talk about the Star Gate and the God Realm.
The streets on both sides of the pier are extremely prosperous, and the lowest level of cultivators walking on the streets is at the Immortal King level.
This is a purely commercial port with no permanent residents. Apart from the shop owners, there is basically no one else here. The owners and crew of the passenger ships that come to the dock all live on board, so there are basically no households living on the dock.
Most of the cultivators Lai Siyu had seen going into the water to search for void beasts were boatmen. After all, it was too expensive to stay in an inn at the dock for a day, and void beasts were not that easy to catch. Many people had been fishing for hundreds or thousands of years without any results.
Therefore, apart from the crew members on the ship, there are basically no other monks who spend their time at the dock to make a living by catching void beasts.
The crew didn't care. The ship would be docked for a few days anyway, so they had plenty of time. Space debris could be found while sailing, so even if they didn't get any, it wouldn't matter. But if they did, well, it would be like winning the jackpot.
The old turtle said that the storage artifacts in the divine world are basically made of void beasts, so as long as the one salvaged is an adult void beast, the selling price is generally one thousand low-grade divine stones.
A Void Beast is considered an adult at 500,000 years old, with every 10,000 years being equivalent to one human year. If you're lucky enough to catch a Void Beast that's over a million years old, the price will double.
The old turtle also told them that every stargate wharf was opened by people from the divine realm. Lai Siyu was surprised. Don't gods use divine stones? Why are they trying to earn immortal crystals?
It turns out that it is not so easy to survive in the world of gods. Only the main gods with famous titles can own their own star fields. Most gods are like independent cultivators. They do not have fixed star fields for them to practice, so they can only think of other ways to make money.
Moreover, gods also need to support slaves and subordinates, so they are in short supply of fairy crystals and divine stones.
A place like Stargate Wharf, where no one was, was a place that no gods would even think of visiting. For example, this Stargate Wharf was the territory of the distant nephew of Hou Tu, the Yang God, one of the Twelve Main Gods.
In order to show respect for the thick earth, the later named this star gate Tumen.
The River of Void runs through the universe, so occasionally scattered gods will appear at some star gates.
Although the God Realm is an ethereal place for Lai Siyu, Mu Lingxiao is already at the peak level of the late Immortal Emperor, and ascending to the God Realm is a matter of minutes, so Lai Siyu is still quite concerned about the affairs of the God Realm.
Gods also have levels, like the God of the Underworld, who is above the twelve main gods. He and Pangu, the god of creation, appeared in the same period.
They were born from chaos, and they created the universe.
However, for some unknown reason, the great god Pangu slept underground, and although Mu Lingxiao swallowed the remaining soul of the god of the underworld, he lost many memories.
Of course, this may be related to his identity as a clone, but that’s not a problem. Without the memory, he can just start over.
Gods are divided into several levels, namely: primary gods, minor gods, heavenly gods, god kings and god emperors.
Now the twelve main gods in the divine world have the cultivation level of Divine Emperor, and there is no cultivation level higher than that.
The twelve main gods control the best star fields in the universe in their own hands. Other gods either search for and develop new star fields, or once they find a new star field, they must pay taxes to the main god who is closest to them.
Another possibility is to directly seize a star field from someone else. This behavior is called grabbing a dock in the God Realm, and the Twelve Lords will not interfere in such matters. However, if you seize a star field from someone else and do not pay taxes, the Twelve Lords will come to you for trouble.
Unlike the world of immortal cultivation, the world of gods basically adopts a laissez-faire attitude towards those ascended gods, and also encourages them to fight for territory.
Although the universe is vast and boundless, there are not many star fields that have useful life and are suitable for cultivation.
There are more and more gods ascending to heaven, but there are fewer and fewer territories and resources for cultivation.
Therefore, the twelve main gods encourage each other to fight for territory.
Anyway, no matter how you rob, you have to pay the taxes every year. If you don’t, hehe, then just wait for your land to be confiscated.
Of course, the divine world still encourages pioneering. If you run far away to a place beyond the reach of the twelve main gods to look for a star field, as long as you can find it, you will be proud.
