Skytribute Pavilion was located at the very center of Skytribute Island. It was also the tallest and largest building on the island, making it extremely conspicuous.
As the group of Sword World made their way to Skytribute Pavilion, they encountered at least a few hundred beings from different realms.
Most of the cultivators and living beings of the realms would show some respect when they saw the people of the Sword Realm.
Even those from other major worlds would exchange a few polite pleasantries when they ran into Lu Yun and the others.
However, Su Zimo's group was in the thousands, which naturally attracted a lot of discussion.
"Why are there so many people from Sword World? And a bunch of earth and empyrean immortals?"
"Those people's attire is different from Sword World's. They look like they're from the Seven Star Sword World."
"Oh right, I heard that the Seven Star Sword World was destroyed a few days ago. Hundreds of millions of lives were slaughtered by the Skyeye World. It's now in ruins!"
"These people are probably the last survivors of the Seven Star Sword World. They must've been taken in by Sword World."
Quite a few cultivators guessed the gist of the situation after a few words.
It didn't take long for the group to arrive at Skytribute Pavilion.
Lu Yun explained, "Every true spirit can receive their own identity medallion in Skytribute Pavilion. Leave a consciousness mark on the front of the medallion and write down your name. The back of the medallion will display the number of battle merit points you've accumulated."
"A consciousness mark?"
Su Zimo murmured thoughtfully.
He suddenly recalled that when he'd first arrived in Divine Firmament, he'd been forced to participate in a hunting competition hosted by Duke Yuanzuo.
Back then, Duke Yuanzuo had distributed a medallion to everyone and told them to leave their consciousness marks on it.
In fact, with this Divine Sense Imprint, Commandery Prince Yuanzuo could monitor everyone and know the location and movements of every cultivator!
"Don't worry, Brother Su Zimo. This Skytribute Medallion has been passed down through the ages and has never encountered any problems."
Su Zimo smiled but didn't explain.
In fact, even if there were any problems with the medallion, this kind of trick wouldn't be able to threaten him anymore.
After cultivating the Yin Yang Talisman Scripture, even the Academy Patriarch couldn't divine anything about him!
With the help of the Yin Yang Charm Scripture, Su Zimo could leave his Spiritual Sense imprint on it.
However, as long as he willed it, even if it was millions of miles away, the divine sense on the token would be erased without a trace!
"The medallion is only useful in the Celestial Bestowment World. You should deposit it in the Celestial Bestowment Pavilion before you leave. The contribution inside will also be preserved, so you can use it again next time you visit."
After a pause, he continued, "Of course, if a living being dies in the outside world, it means that the medallion is now ownerless, and the battle merits on it will be erased."
"Wang Tong, Xun Zhen, go to the Skytribute Pavilion and get your tokens. Those who don't have tokens can also get them from the Skytribute Pavilion."
Under the guidance of Lin Xunzhen and Wang Dong, Su Zimo, Kitsune, Meng Hao, and a few other True Immortals who did not have Skytribute Medallions entered a large hall on the left side of Skytribute Pavilion.
As soon as they entered the hall, Su Zimo felt his vision brighten. Tiny specks of light floated around him.
When Lin Xunzhen, Wang Dong, and the others extended their consciousnesses, a speck of light flew toward them. It was their Skytribute Medallions.
When Su Zimo extended his consciousness, a similar medallion flew toward him. It was made of a unique material that looked like jade, but wasn't. It looked like stone, but wasn't. Both sides were blank.
Su Zimo imprinted "Su Zhu" on one side with his consciousness, and "Battle Merits" appeared on the other side. There was also a blank space behind the battle merits, with no indication of the number of battle merits.
Kitsune, Meng Hao, and the others did the same.
A short while later, the group exited the hall and returned to the entrance of Skytribute Pavilion.
Looking at the thousands of empyrean and earth immortals gathered at the entrance, he mused, "Let's rent a residence. Although there's no danger in the Skytribute World, there are so many of us on this trip. It'll at least give us a place to settle down."
Only true spirit realm cultivators or above could enter Skytribute Pavilion. The thousands of Seven Star Sword World cultivators who'd just joined the Sword World didn't qualify.
Yu Lan frowned. "It'll cost ten battle merits to rent a residence that can accommodate thousands of people for a day."
"Ten battle merits doesn't seem too high, does it?"
Su Zimo asked tentatively.
Yu Lan shook his head. "It's extremely difficult to earn battle merits in the Fiend Battlefield. You should know that killing a Dongxu realm evil spirit is only worth ten points.
"Killing a Unity realm evil spirit is only one point. Celestial realm evil spirits are worth three points. Kongming realm evil spirits are worth six points."
Meng Hao clicked his tongue. "Damn, renting a residence like this for a day is the equivalent of killing a Dongxu realm evil spirit!"
"Exactly," Yu Lan agreed. "If we stay in the Skytribute World for ten days, we'll be wasting a hundred points."
"There are too many eyes in the Skytribute World," Feng Xu said. "Renting a residence will at least prevent beings from other realms from spying on us. We won't have to be secretive when communicating, either."
At this moment, Lin Xunzhen suddenly opened his mouth and said faintly, "Master, let's rent this house. I can naturally get back the 100 military exploits I have consumed."
"Alright."
Yu Lan relented when he heard Lin Xunzhen's words.
In next to no time, everyone from the Sword Dimension found an empty courtyard house near the Heaventribute Pavilion, and there was a groove in the shape of a command token on the entrance of the courtyard.
Lin Xunzhen stepped forward and placed his medallion in the groove. It fit perfectly.
Immediately afterward, the house suddenly flashed with a burst of brilliance, and the door opened.
Among the true immortals of the Sword World, Wang Dong, Gongsun Yu, and the others had less than ten points in their medallions.
Only Lin Xunzhen had more than a hundred points in his medallion, which allowed him to rent the residence.
Su Zimo saw everything clearly.
Originally, there was a powerful seal around the house that made it impossible for others to break in. Only the merit of the Heaven Bestowment Medallion could remove the seal.
After settling the several thousand empyrean and earth immortals into the residence, he looked up at the sky. "Time is of the essence, so let's not waste any more time. I think you should head to Skytribute Pavilion now and prepare to enter the Fiend Battlefield!"
They only had ten days to stay in Skytribute Pavilion.
They hadn't earned a single point yet, but Lin Xunzhen had already spent a hundred points.
"Alright!"
Gongsun Yu, Wang Dong, and the others rubbed their palms together in anticipation.
Lu Yun, Yu Lan, and Su Zimo, as well as Lin Xunzhen, Wang Dong, Meng Hao, and a dozen or so true immortals left the residence and returned to Skytribute Pavilion.
"Skytribute Pavilion can be roughly divided into two areas," Lu Yun said solemnly.
Lu Yun said in a low voice, "There's a pagoda on the left with many rare treasures. The area on the right leads to the Fiend Battlefield."
"Let's go to the treasure pagoda on the left first and see how many points the ore costs. That way, we'll know how much it costs."
The group entered Skytribute Pavilion and took a left turn to arrive at a towering pagoda — the treasure pagoda of Skytribute Pavilion.
