For the past few days, no matter where Luo Zheng went, there would always be people following him sneakily.
Although these people hid very well, they couldn't escape Luo Zheng's detection. In any case, Six Ren Divine City was absolutely safe, so Luo Zheng didn't bother to argue with them.
Luo Zheng still lacked some necessities, such as a spatial ring to store items.
Although Luo Zheng temporarily used the scabbard as a substitute, it wasn't very convenient. Now that Luo Zheng had earned five thousand Shenwu Coins, he could naturally go on a shopping spree.
Under Old Man Evil's guidance, Luo Zheng traversed more than half of Six Ren Divine City and stood in front of a small alley …
"Alley of Gold Coins? You're talking about this place? "
Standing in front of the alley, Luo Zheng had a strange expression on his face.
This small alley only allowed one person to pass through at a time. From the outside, it looked extremely simple and crude …
"Hehe, of course it's here. Six Ren Divine City's Alley of Gold Coins is very famous. As long as you have Shenwu Coins, you can buy any strange item there," Old Man Evil said with a smile.
"But why is everyone squeezed into this small alley?" Luo Zheng was puzzled.
"Move aside!"
At that moment, a thunderous voice suddenly sounded behind Luo Zheng. The voice was very rough, like stones rubbing against each other.
Luo Zheng nimbly dodged to the side. When he turned around, he saw a group of six or seven people walking toward Alley of Gold Coins.
The one who spoke was a fatty in the lead. His body was as wide as his height, like a round ball.
"Middle True God!" Luo Zheng's eyes flashed.
After coming out of the Great Evolution Universe, Luo Zheng had seen many True Gods. However, most of them were lower True Gods. As for middle True Gods, there were only Old Man Evil, Big Mouth Monster, Yin Yuanzi, and a few others.
Luo Zheng had asked Old Man Evil why there were so few middle True Gods.
Naturally, Old Man Evil answered all of Luo Zheng's questions. He told Luo Zheng the reason behind it.
The Divine Dominion was an extremely stable world, completely different from the environment in the universe.
There were very few accidents in this world, and similarly, there were very few "geniuses" who could change the world. Most of the gods did not have any long-term ambitions. Even if they could become true gods, it would be very difficult for them to become a mainstream powerhouse, and it would be impossible for them to become a Paragon, let alone become a Saint.
In other words, the passageway for the bottom-level martial artists to go up was completely blocked.
"The martial artists in the Great Evolution Universe are like water. If the strong don't work hard, they will fall from a high place. Even if they don't fall, they will die along with the exhaustion of their lifespan, thus giving up their position. Heavenly Venerables are no exception. If the weak work hard, there will be a day when they can climb to a higher place!"
"But the True Gods of the Divine Realm are like mountains. They won't move, their lifespans are limitless, and the strong will always be strong. When the top seats are full, the martial artists below will lose the possibility of moving up. No matter how hard they try, it will be useless. Those Gods have lost all hope."
"This is the so-called stratification!"
This was what the Evil Old Man had told Luo Zheng.
Hearing this, Luo Zheng sighed slightly. He did not expect the Evil Old Man to be so insightful and come to such a conclusion about the Divine Realm.
This also explained why there were so few middle-level True Gods.
It was also no wonder that Yin Yuanzi was willing to hide in Meng Village for seven Divine Eras, waiting for the Evil Old Man's return, for a rat.
Because the Stone Forest Rat contained a glimmer of hope, neither Yin Yuanzi nor the Evil Old Man had any intention of becoming a Saint. They did not even hope to become a Paragon. They only wanted to go one step further, break through the middle-level True God, and become an upper-level True God.
Just for this glimmer of hope, two True Gods were willing to risk their lives. It was obvious how difficult it was to make a breakthrough in the Divine Realm.
The rotund fatty glanced indifferently at Luo Zheng and squeezed his way to the entrance of the Alley of Gold Coins. His body was wider than the alley, but he squeezed his way in with all his might …
After squeezing his way in, the fatty disappeared into thin air.
After the few people behind the fatty stepped into the alley, they also disappeared from Luo Zheng's sight.
"So there's another world in the Alley of Gold Coins." Luo Zheng finally understood and stepped into the Alley of Gold Coins as well …
The moment Luo Zheng stepped into the narrow alley, a wave of water rippled in front of his eyes. It was as if space had been distorted, and the world in front of him suddenly opened up as if he had come to another world. What appeared in front of Luo Zheng was a wide street.
On both sides of the street were neatly arranged stalls.
Numerous True Gods moved slowly on the street. It looked like a market in the mortal world.
"So many True Gods?" Luo Zheng said in a daze.
In Six Ren Divine City, Luo Zheng did not encounter many True Gods. Most of them were martial artists who had proven themselves to be gods. It did not seem to fit the name "Divine City". He did not expect that there would be so many True Gods gathered in the Alley of Gold Coins …
As soon as he entered, a guard of the Divine City went straight to Luo Zheng and asked calmly, "Do you have something to sell?"
Luo Zheng shook his head. "I'm here to buy something."
The God City Guard expressed his understanding and moved to the side of the road.
"Why are the guards of Six Ren Divine City so enthusiastic?" Luo Zheng asked the Evil Old Man curiously.
Old Man Extreme Evil chuckled, "Of course. There are actually several entrances to the Alley of Gold. Most True Gods who return to Six Ren Divine City will place their gains here to sell. The shops outside the Divine City are for warriors and Gods below the True God level. If a True God wants to set up a stall in the Alley of Gold, they will have to pay a certain fee to Six Ren Divine City. This is actually a tax, so the guards are naturally enthusiastic."
"Even True Gods have to pay taxes …" Luo Zheng's eyes widened in disbelief. He recalled a book he had read in the Eastern Region. There was a sentence in the book that lamented that death and taxes were inescapable. These True Gods escaped death and obtained eternal life. However, they still could not escape the tax …
Luo Zheng sighed as he strolled along the straight streets of the Alley of Gold Coins.
Most of the people on the street were Lower True Gods. There were also a few Middle True Gods mixed in. There were not many martial artists who had proven themselves to be gods. Even if there were, they would be accompanied by True Gods. Clearly, they were the descendants of some big family clans.
As he walked down the street, the shops on both sides of the street were very rich in goods. There were many different kinds of goods. Luo Zheng did not know the names of many of them.
Most of the people setting up the stalls were True Gods. Some True Gods were very enthusiastic and greeted people when they saw them. Some True Gods were very quiet. They just casually placed the goods they were selling and sat at the side without saying a word.
"Celestial Spirit Root that was mined three Divine Epochs ago. Only 20 Shenwu Coins!"
Luo Zheng was suddenly attracted by a shout. Then, he saw a shiny piece of wood placed in front of a stall on the left. This piece of wood was crossed up and down like a slingshot. Its surface faintly flowed with a jade-green light. It was very eye-catching.
"Little Brother, are you interested?"
This stall owner was also a Lower True God. He did not seem to mind Luo Zheng's identity as a martial artist who had proven himself to be gods. He was still very enthusiastic about Luo Zheng.
"What is this?" Luo Zheng asked curiously.
"Haven't you heard of the Celestial Spirit Root? It can increase one's talent. You can swallow it directly. It can also be refined into a Celestial Spirit Pill. After swallowing it, your mind will be clear and your comprehension ability will increase greatly, "the True God said with a smile.
Before Luo Zheng could say anything, the Evil Old Man said in his mind, "It's fake. A real Celestial Spirit Root can't be bought with 200 Shenwu Coins, let alone 20 Shenwu Coins."
Hence, Luo Zheng did not say anything and turned to leave.
"Little Brother! Little Brother, don't go … "the True God called out a few times. His face was full of helplessness. He could only sigh in his heart. It was getting harder and harder to fool young people these days …
As Luo Zheng continued walking, his eyes kept wandering. Suddenly, a bright light flashed and he quickly walked over.
