Unlike other places, a universal currency circulates on the "ground" of the Star Universe: the Crystal of Dao.
[The Crystal of Dao Principles only increases the probability of entering the state of Dao Integration. It's useless to you, but it's a treasure to others.]
[By consuming one Dao Principle Crystal, as long as you concentrate your mind and focus on a specific item for the next year, the probability of entering the Dao Integration state will double during this period.]
[Consuming ten coins triples the probability of entering the Dao Integration state in the following year; consuming one hundred coins quadruples the probability, and so on.]
It takes approximately one hundred million years for a Dao Power True Immortal to condense a Dao Principle Crystal from the environment, while it only takes ten thousand years for a Dao Power True Immortal to achieve this.
A standard, cheapest safe house costs approximately 200,000 to 300,000 Dao Crystals.
Even an ancient god as invincible as the Lord of the Star River would need several million years to buy a small single room in the Source of Light and Dust.
"(sad"
But very few of them thought about going back underground.
Because that round creature, Apo, modified this universe, the threshold for comprehending the Dao "underground" was raised to ten thousand times the level of comprehension.
[A true immortal's comprehension is only 999.999... times. Even if inspiration strikes sometimes, it might suddenly break through a thousand times to allow them to see the Dao principles, it's practically impossible for inspiration to instantly increase comprehension by ten thousand times.]
Therefore, if true immortals truly wish to elevate themselves, they must descend to the mortal realm, for only the mortal environment allows them to comprehend and replicate the Dao principles!
"You can also hunt Dao beasts and try some takeout."
Even if there were truly immortals who didn't want to work hard and decided to sneak back to the underworld... it's still impossible!
[Only certain locations have passages between the surface and underground that allow for rapid access. To reach other areas, one would need to shatter a super-dense surface layer at least 7.5 million light-years thick to reach the normal cosmic membrane.]
Instead of having the perseverance to move mountains like the Foolish Old Man, it's better to comprehend more Dao principles and become a sufficiently powerful Resonance True Immortal, then you can have the corresponding status and strength to return to the underworld.
[But they already possess the corresponding status and strength, so why would they want to return to that "Land of Despair" where they cannot comprehend the Dao and their strength can never be improved?]
[Furthermore, due to the terrifying gravity here, many immortals and gods, though pregnant, have children who are born as mortals, requiring sufficient power to protect them during childbirth.]
After their children are born, aside from the extremely powerful, the vast majority of True Immortals leave their offspring underground to be raised by the Star Alliance.
It's not that they don't want to go down and accompany their children as they grow up, but they simply don't have the money, they don't have the "Crystal of the Way" as currency.
Without money and power, they can only stay obediently on the ground, letting the Star Alliance raise their children with the most basic welfare.
If you have a little money, you can spend it on the ground to improve your children's treatment by transferring money to their accounts.
However, there is a trade difference. The Dao Principle Crystal that a newly promoted True Immortal would spend 100 million years to condense could only double the basic benefits for their children.
[You only glanced at that True Immortal who was dragged off to mine after ascending, and then lost interest in him. Based on the keywords provided by the women who had previously seduced your little fourteenth son, you located their parents' whereabouts.]
[Coincidentally, the children of those immortals and gods lived in the same star system, so their parents also lived in the same residential area.]
【Northern Divine City.】
[Human Race Tier 6 Main City.]
The city walls are 3 light-years high, meaning that no one below the second tier has a chance to cross them. The entire city is 1000 light-years long and wide, capable of holding countless beings.
[Even a small cave dwelling within one square kilometer of Beishen City would cost over ten million Dao Principle Crystals to purchase!]
[For cave dwellings with special features, located near the inner ring road and forming a Taoist temple environment, the prices have skyrocketed!]
[And the parents of those children of immortals and gods... of course, can't afford to live there. They don't even have the money to provide a better environment for their descendants underground, so how could they possibly afford to live in a big city?]
You fly to a small village on the edge of the Northern Divine City.
[This is a small safe haven built by down-on-their-luck True Immortals who can't afford houses in the city. If they encounter a crisis they can't handle... they can escape to a nearby city!]
This is a very dilapidated little village. It's not that the immortals' dwellings are shabby; it's simply that they can't mine even slightly better building materials, so naturally they can't build magnificent residences.
"Tsk tsk tsk..."
