In order to keep a low profile, Xiao Chen and Wang Pingbei did not go through the city gate, but found a remote place, flew over the city wall, and landed inside the city.
Only when he got here did Xiao Chen feel that... the world beyond heaven was indeed different from the world he lived in.
What caught his eyes were all rather quaint buildings, which made him feel like he was in a film and television city.
The clothes that some ordinary people wear are mostly gray, black, white, etc., with very few bright colors.
On the other hand, the silks and satins used by ancient warriors are obviously different from those used by ordinary people.
Just from the way they dress, you can tell...their class.
We are human beings in the same world, but it seems like we are living in two different worlds.
"The clothes and the like are different from yours, right?"
Wang Pingbei asked.
"Well, there is a difference."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"But fortunately, there are some hidden forces in the ancient martial arts world, and they also live a secluded life..."
He thought of the Xiao family's town. The people in that town were incompatible with the outside world and were more similar to this place.
"Come on, let's go change our clothes first."
Wang Pingbei identified the direction and led the way.
Xiao Chen followed behind, taking in everything around him… This was his first stop, and it was quite new.
At the same time, he felt a little weird.
Everything I see seems very backward compared to the world I live in, at least it feels like I have gone back a hundred years.
But it is the strong people in this backward place who want to conquer the outside world!
A few minutes later, Wang Pingbei took Xiao Chen into a shop, where they saw all kinds of clothes.
Xiao Chen discovered that the clothes in this shop were also divided into two areas. A large area sold clothes for ordinary people, while a smaller area was for practitioners.
"There are quite a few practitioners coming and going here. Many shops not only do business with ordinary people, but also with us."
Wang Pingbei introduced him to Xiao Chen in a low voice while releasing his aura.
"My Lords..."
A man in his thirties, sensing Wang Pingbei's presence, immediately became more respectful and even bowed.
"Come in."
"Let's go."
Wang Pingbei nodded with great style.
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei's style and felt like laughing... He had never seen this style before in Tianjueyuan.
The man brought the two of them to a slightly smaller area. Although the two areas were adjacent to each other, the level of the area was obviously higher, and it exuded nobility everywhere.
"Two sets of clothes."
After Wang Pingbei sat down, he gave the order.
"Don't be too conspicuous, but low-key, luxurious and meaningful."
"???"
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei with a strange expression. Is there such a saying as "low-key, luxurious and profound" in Tianwaitian?
"Xiao...what's wrong?"
Wang Pingbei was about to call out the name but held back. Although it was unlikely that the news would get out here, he still had to be cautious.
"If you need anything, you can tell him."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded and pointed to a set.
"Here, let me try."
"Okay, sir."
The man responded, took it, and respectfully took Xiao Chen to try on the clothes.
Wang Pingbei watched Xiao Chen leave, his heart beating faster. If he hadn't been poisoned, this would definitely be his chance to escape.
However, he just thought about it and didn't dare.
"I thought you ran away."
When Xiao Chen came back, he made a joke.
"How is it possible..."
Wang Pingbei's heart skipped a beat, but he forced a smile.
"You should give me some trust."
"Haha, just kidding."
Xiao Chen patted Wang Pingbei's shoulder and pointed at the clothes he was wearing.
"That's all I have, what about you?"
"Well, take it off."
Wang Pingbei pointed, and after the man took it, he went to change it.
Soon, Wang Pingbei also changed his clothes and nodded with satisfaction.
The clothes he was wearing were torn and stained with blood in many places, and were really uncomfortable to wear.
"Here, the extra is yours as a reward."
Wang Pingbei took out a piece of silver and threw it to the man.
"Thank you, sir."
The man took it, weighed it briefly, and showed his delight.
"???"
Xiao Chen was a little dumbfounded when he saw this scene. Silver transaction?
The settlement currency of Tianwaitian is silver?
Not to mention, he had never paid attention to this issue before.
"let's go."
Wang Pingbei looked at the man, said something to Xiao Chen, and walked out.
"Did you want to kill him to silence him?"
After leaving the shop, Xiao Chen asked casually.
"Um?"
Wang Pingbei was stunned for a moment.
"I saw the murderous intent in your eyes."
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei and said.
"Well, I have some ideas, but when I think about it, it's not necessary."
Wang Pingbei hesitated for a moment and then admitted it frankly.
"It's highly likely that it won't be spread out."
"The transaction in Tianwaitian is done with silver?"
Xiao Chen did not continue the topic. All cultivators thought that ordinary people were ants, so it was normal for Wang Pingbei to have murderous intent.
Just like for ordinary people, stepping on an ant to death doesn’t seem to require a reason and they don’t care at all.
"There are copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins..."
Wang Pingbei replied.
"However, this is only for ordinary people. For cultivators, they use 'spiritual stones' and various cultivation resources, such as exotic beast crystal cores, etc."
“Is it that complicated?”
Xiao Chen frowned, but after thinking about it, he felt it was normal. After all, there was no country here, no unified currency, and there was no exchange rate conversion when different forces traded.
"It's not complicated. After a while, you will understand the conversion here. Everyone knows how much it is worth."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"You just arrived, so you definitely don't understand."
"What about gold? Can it be used to buy cultivation resources?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and asked again.
"Sure, gold is considered hard currency..."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"One high-grade spirit stone is worth five hundred taels of gold, a medium-grade spirit stone is worth two hundred taels of gold, and a low-grade spirit stone is worth one hundred taels of gold..."
"Spiritual stones are divided into high, medium and low levels? And the gap is so huge?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"Of course, for cultivators, spirit stones are considered resources, especially since high-quality spirit stones are rare and naturally more precious..."
Wang Pingbei explained.
"The crystal core is the same, it is also divided into three levels, equivalent to spirit stones..."
"Huaxia currency is not popular here?"
“Not popular.”
“…”
Xiao Chen understood. It seemed that it had to be gold, which had been the hard currency since ancient times.
Then he thought about the pile of gold in his bone ring and smiled.
"By the way, do you have any spirit stones? Let me see what they look like."
"this."
Wang Pingbei took out a stone, which looked somewhat translucent and contained energy.
"This is a low-grade spirit stone."
"A stone with energy is a spirit stone?"
Xiao Chen had a strange look on his face, and then he took out a few stones from his bone ring.
"Are they also spiritual stones?"
"Top-grade spiritual stone..."
Wang Pingbei was surprised, and then thought of something.
"Yes, you have almost emptied the treasures in the snake cave. There are many high-quality spirit stones and crystal cores there..."
As he spoke, he took out a crystal core. This was the only thing he got from the treasure in the snake cave, a top-grade crystal core.
But Xiao Chen didn't like this thing at all at that time.
"I didn't expect that this thing would be useful in Tianwai Tian. I would have taken them all if I had known."
Xiao Chen took a look and took out a head-sized stone that contained rich energy.
"So does this count as a spirit stone?"
“…”
Wang Pingbei's eyes narrowed.
"Where did you get this from?"
"There are plenty of trollbeast treasures."
Seeing Wang Pingbei's reaction, Xiao Chen smiled. It seemed that he didn't have to worry about money anymore.
"Yes?"
Wang Pingbei was stunned.
"You also cleared out the giant monster's treasure?"
"Well, didn't I tell you? Maybe I just forgot... Hehe, they say money is a man's courage. Now I feel like I am full of courage."
Xiao Chen's smile became even more intense. He had gold, spirit stones, and a large number of crystal cores of exotic beasts.
Even if it can't compare with a super power like Qingyun Tower, it is enough for him to live a carefree life.
Especially gold, he felt it was useless. If it could be exchanged for cultivation resources and brought back to the ancient martial arts world, it would definitely be useful.
As for spirit stones and exotic beast crystal cores, most people use them to cultivate, but the speed is very slow, so they can also be exchanged for other cultivation resources...
"You... have a lot of spirit stones and crystal cores?"
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and couldn't help asking.
"There are more than you can imagine."
Xiao Chen looked a bit like a nouveau riche. He originally thought it was useless, but in the end... could it still be spent as money?
This is wonderful.
Then he thought of the blood crystal stone. After all, that thing also has energy, so can it be used as a spirit stone?
As Wang Pingbei said just now, spirit stones are not just a single type of stone. In the Heaven Beyond Heaven, as long as they have energy, they can be considered spirit stones, but they just have different levels.
"Beizi, follow me and get along well in the future. You will definitely be happier than you were in Qingyun Tower."
Xiao Chen straightened his back and looked around.
"Let's find a restaurant and have something to eat first... I'm really tired of eating wild game recently. I want to try the specialties of Tianwaitian."
"good."
Wang Pingbei nodded and took Xiao Chen to the largest restaurant here.
"By the way, Beizi, what kind of nightlife do you have in Tianwaitian?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked again.
"Night life? Like?"
Wang Pingbei was stunned.
"After a full meal, shouldn't we have some entertainment? Is there anything special?"
Xiao Chen blinked.
"Entertainment? Features? Got it."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"A brothel, right?"
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. Do you need to be so straightforward?
"No, can we have some romance?"
"What about the brothel? Drink some wine and listen to some music?"
Wang Pingbei thought for a moment and said.
"Well... since I'm here in Tianwaitian, I have to see it for myself."
Xiao Chen coughed dryly.
"Beizi, just take care of the arrangements."
"clear."
Wang Pingbei also blinked.
"I understand."
For a moment, both of them laughed, and their relationship... seemed to have become a lot closer.
"Beizi, what is the relationship between the Qinglou and your Qingyunlou?"
Xiao Chen thought of what Xiao Bai said and made a joke.
"Definitely not."
Wang Pingbei said this, pointing to a rather large building in front.
"We're here. This is the largest restaurant here. It's pretty good."
