A few days later, the flying ship once again stopped on a square.
After getting off the airship, Ning Cheng looked at the layout of the public square and finally understood why the Boundary Essence Spirit Sea City's public square was arranged like this. It was a simulation of the layout of this place.
There was more than one public square here. Ning Cheng saw dozens of large and small public squares. There was a teleportation array in the middle of every square, and at the edge of the square were some merchant houses.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Ning, the teleportation array to the Grand Essence Ruins is over there …." Nalan Ruxue came to Ning Cheng's side and pointed to a large public square not far away.
Even without Nalan Ruxue's words, Ning Cheng had already seen the Transmission Array. At the edge of the public square, there was a huge array formation screen with the words' Grand Essence Ruins' written on it. Price: 80,000 high-grade spirit crystals. '
Even with such a high price, there were still people who paid the Divine Crystals and were teleported away. Moreover, Ning Cheng also noticed that most of the cultivators coming out of the other teleportation arrays were heading towards the Grand Essence Ruins' teleportation array. One could even say that this teleportation array was the most lively. It was no wonder that a group of Teleportation Formations had to be built here. This was simply a Divine Crystal collector.
Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue arrived at the Grand Essence Ruins' teleportation array and lined up to pay 160,000 high-grade spirit crystals before waiting for the transfer.
Two hours later, Ye Mo and Nalan Ruxue followed more than ten people onto the teleportation formation.
The Transmission Array quickly activated. Ning Cheng was proficient in the Dao of Array Formations and had studied Transmission Arrays for quite some time. As soon as he activated the teleportation array to the Grand Essence Ruins, he understood that it was a long-distance teleportation. However, under such a long-distance teleportation, he didn't feel the slightest bit of dizziness. This showed how powerful the array master who built this teleportation array was.
In less than half-an-incense stick worth of time, Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue appeared in a teleportation array within a large hall. The two of them followed the crowd out of the main hall and were stunned by the prosperity in front of them.
How was this the periphery of a ruin? This was simply a super prosperous starry sky city.
The huge plaza, the densely packed commercial buildings, the city square, and countless people …
No matter how lively and bustling this place was, no matter how many people there were, it couldn't block the huge words' Grand Essence Ruins' Quest Hall '. The Quest Hall stood tall in the middle of the largest public square, with many cultivators entering and exiting it.
"Strange, unexpectedly no one came to rent out their Immortal Caves." Ning Cheng looked at the cultivators coming and going, as he muttered to himself with some doubts.
In such a crowded place, renting a cave abode was naturally the best business. Logically speaking, someone would take the initiative to rent a cave abode at the exit of the teleportation array.
"Is this friend's first time in the Grand Essence Ruins? Does he still need to rent a cave in the Grand Essence Ruins? There was simply not enough supply to meet the demand. If he wanted to rent a cave abode, he would go there. However, it was difficult to rent a good one. If you have a high level Quest Card, then you can rent a higher level Immortal Cave … … "A cultivator standing not far from Ning Cheng spoke with a smile, while simultaneously pointing his finger to the opposite side of the square.
"Thanks a lot." Ning Cheng cupped his fists and thanked him, as for what the Quest Card was, Ning Cheng did not know and did not specifically ask about it. He believed that as long as he entered the Mission Hall, he would be able to inquire about it.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Ning, are we going to rent a cave?" Nalan Ruxue asked.
Ning Cheng looked at the opposite side and spoke, "Let's go and have a look later. Let's go to the Quest Hall first and ask about the situation."
…
Walking into the Quest Hall, everyone's eyes were filled with people. In a part of the Quest Hall, there were also some rest stops and restaurants.
Nearly a hundred huge array formation screens stood in the middle of the Quest Hall. Moreover, the areas of these array formation screens were clearly divided. Divine Grasses Quest Screen, Spirit Technique Quest Screen, Artefacts Quest Screen, Materials Quest Screen, Teams Quest Screen …
There were all kinds of quests, and each category of quests was divided into several levels. Even divine grasses were divided into top-grade, high-grade, mid-grade, low-grade, and so on.
Ning Cheng looked at the low-grade quests and found that the lowest-grade quests only had a few points. But the top-grade quests even had more than a million points. There were also a few quests that didn't have any points written on them. Obviously, these quests were ridiculously high-grade, and the points were set according to the needs of the person who completed the quests.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Ning, why don't we take a few quests and put up a quest to find Senior Apprentice Sister Yan Ji?" Nalan Ruxue suggested.
Ning Cheng understood what Nalan Ruxue meant. To put up a quest, one must first have points. If one didn't even have points, how could one post a quest?
"Wait, let's take a look at the quests first …." Ning Cheng was just about to sweep out with his spiritual consciousness when he felt a few extremely powerful spiritual consciousnesses sweep past him. He quickly and carefully retracted his spiritual consciousness. These spiritual consciousnesses were too powerful, several times stronger than the fellow he killed with the Five-coloured Star Splitter Arrow a few months ago.
Thinking about how the Grand Essence Ruins even had second-step Dao Confirming powerhouses, Ning Cheng became even more cautious and didn't sweep out with his spiritual consciousness. After walking around the Quest Hall for a long time, he and Nalan Ruxue finally gained a general understanding of the place and finally understood what a Quest Card was.
To pick up a quest in the Quest Hall, one had to first apply for a Great Cosmological Abyss Quest Card. There were five kinds of Great Cosmological Abyss Quest Cards, namely Purple Card, Gold Card, Silver Card, White Card, and Black Card.
Quest Cards could be used to record points, trade tasks, or trade points with each other. The Black Card was the lowest level, and anyone could apply for it as long as they paid 1,000 spirit crystals. If one's transaction points with the Quest Hall reached 100,000 points, one could apply for a White Card.
These transaction points weren't the remaining points in the Quest Card, but the transaction points with the Quest Hall. Even if one obtained 100,000 points, one couldn't exchange for a White Card without completing the transaction. Only by spending the 100,000 points would one be eligible to exchange for a White Card.
Of course, this transaction had to be with the Quest Hall. If it was a transaction between cultivators, even a million points wouldn't be counted.
Exchanging a White Card for a Silver Card required a transaction of 1 million points, while exchanging a Silver Card for a Gold Card required a transaction of 10 million points. As for a Purple Card, it required a transaction of 100 million points.
The level of the Quest Card indicated one's status in the Grand Essence Ruins. The higher the level of the Quest Card, the more precious the things one could trade in the Quest Hall's merchant house. Next to the Grand Essence Ruins' Quest Hall, there was a Quest Hall's merchant house. This Quest Hall's merchant house had five colour floors, black, white, silver, gold and purple. If one only had a Black Card, one could only trade on the first black floor. The higher the floor, the higher the grade of the things inside.
Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue had just arrived in the Grand Essence Ruins and could only apply for a Black Card each. The Black Card was only half the size of a palm, and it mainly recorded the task points and transaction points.
"Come on, let's go pick up a task. I just saw an ice-type spirit technique, the Violent Ice Sea, in the Grand Essence Ruins' Defying Ice Mound ruins. Let's go to the Defying Ice Mound. Maybe we can find this spirit technique if we're lucky. " Ning Cheng didn't choose to go to the Defying Ice Mound on a whim. Instead, he saw that Nalan Ruxue had already stepped into the Heaven Seated Realm of Destiny's three realms. However, she didn't seem to have any spirit techniques. Plus, Nalan Ruxue had a mutated ice-type spiritual root. Therefore, he might as well help her.
For Ning Cheng, picking up a task was just a convenience. In addition to looking for Yan Ji in the Grand Essence Ruins, he also wanted to advance further. It would be best if he could reach Dao Confirming here.
Nalan Ruxue froze for a moment. She immediately thought that Ning Cheng might be helping her. But she still couldn't believe it and spoke up, "Senior Apprentice Brother Ning, but that's a high-rank task …."
Although the task points were good, and the spirit techniques were also very tempting, the dangers of high-rank tasks were obvious.
"I know it's a high-rank task. Let's go and have a look. It doesn't matter if we can't complete it." Ning Cheng nodded.
If more people took on the same task, it wouldn't affect them even if they couldn't complete it. In fact, they could even take on the same task after completing it. In fact, most cultivators wouldn't take on a task first. Instead, they would complete the task first. Only those tasks that were easy to complete, with high points, or those with prepaid fees, would take on the task first.
"This dao friend, I think you might as well go to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges instead of taking on the Defying Ice Mound's task. Finding the Extreme Violent Ice Sea Spirit Technique only gives you 10,000 points, which is considered low among high-rank tasks. But in the Grand Essence Seven Bridges, any random task would give you 100,000 points. Moreover, for every additional task, the points would double ….. "A cultivator next to him spoke up with good intentions.
"Grand Essence Seven Bridges?" Ning Cheng felt shocked.
The cultivator replied, "That's right. It's an old task, and many people go there. Although it's a top-grade task, it's safer than the Defying Ice Mound's task. Moreover, I heard that you can even cultivate spirit techniques in the Grand Essence Seven Bridges ruins. "
Ning Cheng's spiritual consciousness had already fallen on the high-rank task screen, and he immediately saw the Grand Essence Seven Bridges. In this task, finding any of the specified spirit techniques would earn him 100,000 points. If he found two spirit techniques, he would earn 200,000 points, and if he found three spirit techniques, he would earn 400,000 points. If he found all seven spirit techniques, he would earn 6.4 million points, which was even more than finding the complete Grand Essence Spirit Thunder Spirit Technique.
"Many thanks, dao friend, for reminding me." Ning Cheng quickly thanked him, but his heart still pounded wildly. He didn't expect to see the Grand Essence Seven Bridges here. He even felt 90% sure that the Grand Essence Seven Bridges Spirit Technique was the Wordless Heavenly Book's Seven Bridges Spirit Technique that he couldn't cultivate.
He didn't find any trace of the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique. But now, he might have found the origin of this spirit technique in the Grand Essence Ruins. Maybe he could learn the Seven Bridges Spirit Technique in the Grand Essence Ruins.
Ning Cheng now had Sunset's Twilight, Maximal Flame, Time Wheel, None-to-depend-on, Traceless Spear, and other spirit techniques. But once he met a real powerhouse, his real trump card was the Five-coloured Star Splitter Arrow.
The main reason was that his understanding of the laws had just started. Moreover, these spirit techniques still lacked the foundation to deal with real powerhouses.
The Seven Bridges Spirit Technique was a series. What would happen if he learned this spirit technique? Maybe he wouldn't have to shoot the Five-coloured Star Splitter Arrow every time.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Ruxue, let's go to the Defying Ice Mound first, and then to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges." Ning Cheng didn't even bother to pick up the task. Instead, he took Nalan Ruxue and prepared to enter the Grand Essence Ruins.
