Wood Jade Emperor was a very talkative and loved to make friends. When Luo Feng expressed that he was prepared to explore Hong Meng City, Wood Jade Emperor said confidently, "I can't be more familiar with the various places in Hong Meng City. I'll accompany you and give you a tour of Hong Meng City and give you an introduction."
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Luo Feng smiled.
"No trouble, undyings have limitless lifespans, they can't just train all the time. As for adventuring and fighting, it's only once in a while. With such a long lifespan, there has to be some things right? To be able to accompany a good friend to explore Hong Meng city, it's a joyous thing. "Wood jade emperor smiled, revealing his snow white teeth.
Under Wood jade emperor's lead, Luo Feng began to stroll around Hong Meng city.
...
Hong Meng city, the lowest level of residents were at least emperor level, countless warriors gathered in this city, naturally it was very developed. Normally rare sights could be seen everywhere here.
Large ship trades.
Plant life, metal life trades.
Warrior employment services.
Special items appraisal services.
Large auction houses.
New gambling services.
"Gambling?" Luo Feng saw a strange seven story palace in front of him. On the palace, there were three human words, 'Pu Ya Palace'.
"As a warrior, most of them are adventurous, and with their long lifespans, there aren't many things to do. Gambling in Puya palace … it's also a form of entertainment, come, I'll let you experience it." Wood jade emperor pulled Luo Feng and entered the palace, the moment they entered, they saw large amounts of warriors.
This huge palace that was a few km long and wide was bustling with activity.
"Open!"
"Open!"
"Open!" The group of King-Ranked formidable martial artists from the various races all stared ahead. At the same time, they laughed and shouted, clearly very excited.
"Number 1031." The attendant shouted the number.
Immediately, many warriors within the palace cursed and scolded, however there were some who shouted, "Number 1031 is Nong Cang emperor, Nong Cang emperor has earned big this time."
"Nong Cang emperor, you've earned 100 million mixed elements worth of treasures, you have to treat us to a feast."
"Don't be stingy."
"Is Nong Cang emperor such a stingy human?"
There was a commotion, after which a tall man with long curly hair shouted, "Go go go, whoever has a ticket, go to the 9 incense palace."
"Heroic spirit."
"How forthright."
Cheers immediately rang out.
Luo Feng who had just entered looked over curiously, "Wood jade emperor, what's going on?"
"This is called the 'one in ten thousand' type of gambling," said King Wood Jade with a smile. "Furthermore, Puya Palace doesn't earn much from this type of gambling."
"Oh?" Luo Feng was shocked.
"This kind of gambling game is very simple. It's just that the casino will take out a treasure worth 100 million mixed element units. This is definitely not a random price. These treasures that are taken out are usually sold for at least 100 million mixed element units in some shops outside." King Wood Jade explained, "The casino, Puya Palace, took out this treasure and started selling 10,000 tickets. Each ticket is worth 10,000 mixed elements."
"When all 10,000 ticket numbers are sold, at a specific time, we'll begin to choose the one and only ticket number. The person with that ticket number will be able to obtain the treasure worth 100 million mixed elements," King Wood Jade said.
"So that's how it is." Luo Feng understood.
How interesting.
This was equivalent to 10,000 warriors pooling their money to buy one treasure and then the lucky one out of these 10,000 warriors would obtain the treasure alone.
Investing 10,000 would result in 100 million.
Of course there would be more losers.
"Anyway, each ticket is only 10,000 mixed elements. Gambling once in a while, it's still fun." King Wood Jade walked in at the same time, introducing Luo Feng to the various types of gambling. These types of gambling were very similar, similar to some of the most popular gambling methods on earth. There were also some unique ones.
The small gambles ranged from a few hundred mixed elements to the high ones in the billions.
However these types of gambling of the highest scale were only done once in a while. Even the emperor pinnacle warriors wouldn't dare gamble that much.
… …
"Hu." Walking out of Puya Palace, Luo Feng exclaimed, "How good is the Puya Palace at earning money? With so many warriors coming over to gamble, the casino just takes a small cut and earns a shocking amount. "
"The Puya Palace is the only casino in the entire Hong Meng city. Even though they have to pay taxes to the Hong Meng, the profits are still shocking. It's a business without any capital." Wood Jade emperor exclaimed, "It's impossible to apply to the Hong Meng to build a casino. There's only one slot, and this Puya Palace … rumor has it that this Puya Palace's backer is one of the leaders of the Hong Meng palace. Some even say that it's a collaboration between a few leaders."
Luo Feng nodded.
"It's not just the Puya Palace."
Wood Jade emperor walked on the streets, pointing at the distant huge shops. "The various businesses all have a limit to the number of shops. These shops … have to at least be backed by a universe knight to build them. Hence to earn huge profits from the Hong Meng, not everyone has the chance."
"Of course there's a win and a loss."
"Other than the Puya Palace and a few other places that are unique, even though there are limits to the number of shops, they aren't the only ones. There's still competition."
"Haha …"
"Even though we emperors can't open shops, we don't have to pay to stay in the Hong Meng. As long as we don't gamble or shop, naturally we don't have to pay. However as long as the shop is open … we have to pay taxes to the Hong Meng. " Wood jade emperor pointed ahead. "Look, that's the best shop out of all the shops … it's called Yu treasure hall. It's said that it's opened by a human leader of the Hong Meng palace."
*****
Yu treasure hall had a total of 2 levels. Every level's space was comparable to the Puya Palace.
One had to know that the Hong Meng was very frugal with their land. Even the emperor and undying's residences were only that big. Hence a few km long and wide shops were huge. How much could they store?
"Hu."
"Hehe."
Luo Feng entered Yu Bao hall and looked at the countless treasures that filled his vision. Beside every treasure was a diagram. On the diagram were videos, pictures, and written information. They explained in detail the origins of the treasures, their specialties, and their prices.
"The treasures on the 1st floor of Yu treasure hall range from 1 million mixed elements to 100 billion mixed elements. They have everything." Wood jade emperor pointed in the distance. "Look at the staircase leading to the 2nd floor."
"Hm?" Luo Feng turned to look.
"Yu treasure hall is the best shop in the Hong Meng. The 1st floor has countless treasures. The 2nd floor has even more valuable treasures. Some of them can be bought with mixed elements. Some of them are even prohibited from being bought with money. One has to use other treasures to exchange for them … bartering. " Wood jade emperor explained. "You should know that there are some special treasures in the universe that are extremely rare. Some are even unique. To give an accurate price is very difficult … unique treasures may be useless to some warriors. However, to others, they are priceless treasures. Since the value cannot be determined … bartering has become the norm. "
Luo Feng nodded. He walked and observed.
After a while, he reached the staircase.
"This isn't a place you can go up." At the 100m wide staircase, there were 9 beauties from different races standing. One of them said coldly to Luo Feng.
Luo Feng was stunned.
"The 2nd floor of Yu treasure hall isn't a place anyone can enter." An ear piercing voice carried from behind. A man with purple jade like scales on his head, dressed in a strange golden robe, and his entire body seemed to be carved out of purple jade walked past Luo Feng. He walked up the stairs and glanced at Luo Feng.
"Yang."
Wood jade emperor walked over. Looking at the golden robed warrior, he said, "To go up to the 2nd floor, one has to be a 4 star being or even higher. Or one has to have over 100 billion mixed elements in the universe 1st bank or universe galaxy bank. Only those who fit the criteria can go up. "
"Who's that strong looking punk?" Luo Feng smiled.
"He's called Wu Lu Wang." Wood jade emperor said softly. "Even though he's a foreign race, his teacher is a 7 star being. His teacher dotes on him and treats him like his own son."
"The disciple of a foreign race 7 star being?" Luo Feng smiled.
"That Wu Lu Wang is an extremely vicious person. Moreover, he's very open with the strong warriors of the human race. He does have a group of strong friends. Yang, we're not in the same circle as him … don't mess with him. " Wood jade emperor said. Different circles had different levels. Those with huge backgrounds or strong powers would naturally be friends.
"Ah." Luo Feng nodded.
"There are countless treasures on this floor, trillions of them. It's enough for you to look at them for a long time." Wood jade emperor smiled.
"That's true."
Luo Feng nodded.
Towards that Wu Lu Wang, Luo Feng only smiled disdainfully within. Looks like the foreign races indeed had low self-esteem amongst the humans. Otherwise, the truly confident ones … may not care about the other party, but they wouldn't say it out loud to purposely attack the other party to show their own status. This was a sign of low self-esteem.
… …
Yu treasure hall was indeed the largest and best shop in Great Alliance city. There were many treasures and they were rare. Some weren't even in the Virtual Universe company treasure trove. Of course, there were some that the treasure troves didn't have in Yu treasure hall.
However … buying from the treasure trove, how could it compare to the feeling of shopping within the palace?
"It really makes one envious."
"Hehe, the golden horned beast's Deities of the World treasures, I've found quite a few too." The more Luo Feng looked, the more he liked it. He originally didn't have any plans to buy anything. However, looking at the trillions of treasures, he couldn't help but want to buy. However, the prices that really made him want to buy were usually a few hundred million, a few billion or even tens of billions of mixed elements.
However …
He had no money on him. Even though he had some spoils of war from killing the Shi clan youth, he hadn't exchanged them for money yet.
"Hm?" Luo Feng's gaze was suddenly attracted by a peculiar golden armor that was about 8m tall. Even though this was created from the virtual universe, the moment he saw this peculiar golden armor, Luo Feng immediately thought of soldier armor and general armor.
"This is …" Luo Feng's eyes gleamed.
