The south of the city also had no city walls. Basically, anyone could enter from any direction, and the south of the city was located right in the center.
Gu Zheng had already gained a general understanding of the south of the city, and Mi Fei had given him a detailed explanation. After giving Gu Zheng a careful look, he asked tentatively, "Fellow Daoist Fellow Daoist?
"Fellow Daoist Gu, is this your first time here? Do you have a tribe?"
When Gu Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh inwardly. He had been curious as to why Mi Fei would follow him and explain so much in detail. So it turned out that Mi Fei wanted to recruit him into his tribe.
"Unfortunately, I've only just recently brought my tribe up here." Gu Zheng said without leaving any trace.
Gu Zheng could clearly see the disappointed look on Mi Fei's face. Still, he forced himself to cheer up.
"It must be fate that brought us together. Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Gu. I didn't think that you'd be able to bring your tribe up here without ever coming to the south of the city. Truly admirable."
"I was just lucky. I wonder how your tribe is doing? Why are you recruiting people here? If it's inconvenient, then forget it. "Gu Zheng couldn't help but ask the question in his heart.
"There's nothing inconvenient about it. My tribe already has nearly two hundred thousand people, and it's not too far to the west. It's very close to here, but right now, I'm a little powerless to control such a large tribe. That's why I've been squatting here, hoping to recruit some wandering Elder Gods." Mi Fei calmed himself down, sweeping away all of his previous gloominess.
"Impressive. I wonder if you've managed to recruit anyone?" Gu Zheng sighed in amazement. He hadn't expected Mi Fei's tribe to have so many people.
"Heh heh. I've been here a little too long, so I've slowly gotten to where I am. Of course, I haven't managed to recruit a single person, but I've only been squatting here for a month. No rush." Seeing the look of surprise in Gu Zheng's eyes, Mi Fei puffed out his chest proudly. He naturally knew that this wasn't easy.
In this place, Jin Xian was an early Elder God. To tell the truth, he was only an early Elder God. Although fighting had nothing to do with an Elder God, development had to do with an Elder God's combat power. After all, if he was too weak, the villagers wouldn't feel safe.
In short, development was very difficult.
"Is that the mission hall ahead?" On this side, Mi Fei was just about to inquire about Gu Zheng's tribe when he heard Gu Zheng's question. Not far in front of them, there was an obviously unique palace building.
There were guards here. Every set distance, there would be a mighty guard standing there, guarding everything here.
Every hall was built with a kind of jade, and there were different strange beasts engraved at the entrance. Countless runes were engraved on them, and they emitted bursts of light. It was as if they were going to rush out at any moment.
Although each hall was not tall, it was larger than an ordinary building. Moreover, on each roof, there was a jade pillar as white as jade. Hazy white light flickered on the pillar, and an invisible Qi soared into the sky, as if supporting the huge formation above.
"Yes, but only the front row can be entered. The back row is still closed, and no one knows what's inside. The last row is Steward Cheng's residence. Normally, he won't appear unless there's something. Only his subordinates are in charge here." Mi Fei tossed the question he wanted to ask to the back of his mind. A tribe that had just risen was just so-so. He had also come from that direction, so it was best not to ask.
"Then where are the points exchange and missions?" Gu Zheng's group took another step forward. There were people going in and out of every hall, but only the two in the middle seemed to have more people.
"It's in the middle. The other places have other functions. The details are written on the door, so it's easy to recognize." Because of the angle, Gu Zheng hadn't seen it. Only after Mi Fei pointed it out did he realize.
"I was negligent!" Gu Zheng took two steps forward, only to find that Mi Fei hadn't followed him. Instead, he was looking at him.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, I'll send you here. I still have things to do, so I won't accompany you. If you need anything, feel free to look for me. I'll definitely help if it's within my ability," Mi Fei said apologetically.
"Speaking of which, I still have to thank you for explaining so much to me. Otherwise, I would have wasted a lot of time." Gu Zheng understood the other party's meaning. Since he already had a tribe, the other party wanted to continue recruiting people.
Mi Fei nodded, then quickly left.
After Gu Zheng watched the other party leave, he walked towards the center. At the same time, he wanted to see what the halls above were for.
There was no plaque in the hall, only a clear spell. When you looked at it with rapt attention, the information on it would naturally be imprinted in your mind.
"Miscellaneous"
"Population"
"Ancestor God"
There were only two simple words on it, as if it corresponded to the services provided. However, Gu Zheng didn't want to explore it. He wasn't in the mood to stroll around here.
Soon, he came to a stop in the center. On the left, there were points. On the right, there were missions. Gu Zheng hesitated for a moment, then directly entered the hall on the right.
From the outside, he could only see a large expanse of white jade floor. There wasn't a single person in sight.
A person entered through the door. With a flash, that person's figure disappeared. With another flash, another person came out.
An Ancestor God gave the stunned Gu Zheng a puzzled look, then walked past him. Gu Zheng walked over at the same time. The instant he stepped through the door, the scene before him changed completely.
The entire hall had clearly expanded by ten times. This was because there were dozens of Ancestor Gods scattered around the hall.
Around them, there was a classical beauty sitting at the most important position. However, there was no one in front of her.
Around them, there were many stone platforms made of white crystals. Most of the Ancestor Gods were gathered around them.
Two black-clad soldiers stood on either side of the door. When they saw Gu Zheng standing there in a daze, one of them spoke up.
"Ancestor God, please don't stay where you are. Be careful that the people behind you don't bump into you and cause a misunderstanding."
They had seen many such people. Practically everyone who entered for the first time would do the same.
"My apologies!" Only then did Gu Zheng realize that he was in the wrong position. He took a few steps forward, but when he looked back, he was able to see the scene outside through the door. An Ancestor God was walking in from the outside, but was walking straight in as though there were no obstacles at all.
"Impressive!"
Gu Zheng took a deep breath. Just this alone was something Gu Zheng couldn't do. However, Gu Zheng didn't hesitate. After looking around, he walked straight towards the classical beauty.
"Excuse me. I would like to check my points and see if there's anything I can buy." Gu Zheng felt as though he were in a market.
"The jade platform in front of me. Just put your hand on it and inject your Joss Flame power. As for what you want to exchange for, there's an image on the jade platform beside it. You can see it yourself." The classical beauty said indifferently.
Gu Zheng nodded. This kind of deja vu was like a futuristic science fiction. However, Gu Zheng could also do it.
Their space was actually a small world of a Quasi-Sage. Under all the big rules, the small rules were set by him. If he found you pleasing to the eye, giving you a million points was as easy as snapping his fingers.
With just a thought, he could execute everyone here. Even if there were hundreds of thousands of gold immortals, as long as they fell in, they would all be killed.
However, if there were so many people here, this place would explode.
Gu Zheng thought as he put his hand on it. The originally white jade platform was quickly covered by a faint yellow mist. At the same time, Gu Zheng felt a trace of his spiritual power being drawn by the stone platform in front of him. As the yellow mist rolled, a mysterious connection was emitted from it and shot into the sky.
In Gu Zheng's mind perception, the token that had a meaningful connection with him suddenly shook. The yellow mist below gradually condensed into a yellow ball and slowly rose from the stone platform.
The classical beauty stretched out her slender, jade-like hand and inserted it into the yellow mist. The yellow mist rapidly condensed and quickly turned into something like a yellow token.
"Alright, from now on, all your points are in here." The classical beauty tossed the yellow token over and then said no more.
Gu Zheng held it in his hand and immersed his mind into it. He found that this token actually had a trace of connection with the ancestral god token. However, he could only feel a series of numbers inside. Now, there were more than 250,000 points.
Nodding with satisfaction, Gu Zheng walked to the side, wanting to see what was inside.
As soon as Gu Zheng left, an Ancestor God walked towards the classical beauty and said something to her. The classical beauty nodded her head and five bracelets appeared in her hand and she handed them over to the Ancestor God. After receiving the bracelets, the Ancestor God hurriedly left.
It was an ancestral god who had just entered. Seeing him in a hurry, it was obvious that he had something to do.
A standard bracelet could store a limited amount of resources, but it could also be stacked together. If they were all filled up, it should be enough to feed 100,000 people for a year.
Gu Zheng had already arrived at a place where there were fewer people. The ancestral gods beside him were clearly familiar with each other. They were discussing other things, as if they had encountered something else.
Gu Zheng looked at the jade platform below and placed his hand on it. His mind shook again, and the jade platform's information was quickly transmitted into his mind.
All the jade platforms had the same information. If one wanted to use them as a large jade cylinder to store information, the items inside would be all-encompassing. Even Gu Zheng had to spend a few breaths of time to organize everything inside.
The things that could be provided here were all sorts of things, from the basic necessities of ordinary people to treasures that even Jin Xian would covet. It covered almost all levels.
However, each item was not cheap. The trivial things of ordinary people were sold as bracelets.
Gu Zheng's mind quickly locked onto the location of the ordinary bracelets. After seeing the price, Gu Zheng's pupils shrank. It was too expensive.
An ordinary bracelet actually cost 5,000 points, and the better ones, such as meat, cost 10,000 points.
And the ones filled with mixed materials cost 50,000 points. It was too expensive.
No wonder the villagers were unwilling to leave after arriving. If it were Gu Zheng himself, even if he used up all the points he had, he would not be able to exchange for many. He had already used up nearly 10 points to train his troops.
One had to know that Gu Zheng had the most of these items. After careful calculation, tens of millions of items were all given to him by the three old men.
He was bearing too much of a debt. These ordinary things were actually so expensive.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng quickly looked at other things.
As Gu Zheng expected, everything was so expensive that it made one's heart ache.
Not to mention the sky-high prices of the magic treasures. Although some of them tempted Gu Zheng, looking at the series of points, Gu Zheng shook his head. It was probably not enough even after tens of thousands of years.
However, although a few of the magic treasures had prices, they were labeled with the word "no". It was obvious that they had been exchanged. What made him admire was who had the willpower to exchange for them.
Just as Gu Zheng was feeling helpless, he saw a series of black words at the bottom right corner. It gave him a shock.
Because it was also a series of numbers, but it was much less than the number of points.
For example, materials worth 50,000 points only cost 500 points.
Moreover, there were also words at the bottom right corner, which were a hundred times less.
Gu Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He felt that it should be related to the task. Thinking of this, he directly left here and went to the task hall next to him.
It was also a new world inside. It was wider and there were more people inside. There were nearly 200 Ancestor Gods, and everyone was restraining their aura here.
Even if they did not, there was a special restriction here. Anyway, when Gu Zheng came in, his strength directly fell to the Early-stage of Fairy Immortal.
Not only him, but everyone was the same. In this way, no one could tell the level of their strength.
Most of them were looking at the information on the wall. They gathered in twos and threes and discussed the tasks above. The whole hall was filled with buzzing sounds like mosquitoes flying around the ears.
Gu Zheng did not go to the innermost part. Instead, he walked to the side of the huge wall and looked at it carefully.
On this tall side wall, there were all kinds of tasks posted on it. However, there were also three colors marked on it.
At the bottom, there were ordinary black words fluttering on it, forming all kinds of tasks. Just as he looked at it, a line of black words appeared out of thin air and then floated at the bottom.
"There is a deep forest in the south of Dream Creek Village. The ratio of animals inside is now out of balance. Please go and maintain it. The reward is 100 Black Gold."
Gu Zheng snorted at this person. It was simply an errand mission. However, after a few breaths, it disappeared from the wall. It seemed that it had been taken by someone.
As for the rest of the missions, Gu Zheng gave them a cursory glance before ignoring them. This was because the missions were simply too low-level. Most of them were inferior to that one, and many of them were trivial matters that virtually any Elder God could accomplish.
Gu Zheng did not care about these tasks at all. It was a waste of time and the reward was very low.
Gu Zheng's gaze continued to move up. In the middle, there were cyan words. Not only were the tasks much more difficult, but the reward was also at least four digits. It was clear that they were of a much higher level.
However, Gu Zheng frowned. Most of the requests from the higher-ups were for them to invade other villages and win. Moreover, 90% of the requests were from the western and eastern villages. It was as if they were encouraging them to invade other villages.
Looking at the top, the highest was to attack a village called Dragonshadow Village. The reward was actually 5,000 Black Gold. If converted, it would be 500,000 points. It could be said that Changfeng was rich.
He slowly skimmed through the information. Although each task was rich in points, it was not suitable for him to do it at the moment.
"How about it? I feel that you should consider it. If we work together, wouldn't it be perfect? " A familiar voice suddenly entered Gu Zheng's ears. This familiar voice caused Gu Zheng to turn his head and see that Mi Fei was talking to someone beside him.
The middle-aged man looked to be in his thirties and had a wry smile on his face as he spoke to Mi Fei solemnly.
"I've already promised someone. Thank you for your kind intentions, Brother. Let's not talk about this matter anymore. Thank you for bringing me here." After saying that, he quickly left and headed inwards.
Mi Fei looked at the other person disappointedly. How could he not know that the other party had not promised anyone? It was just that he was too weak. Even the other party had been moved at first.
His gaze shifted and he saw Gu Zheng looking at him. He raised his spirits and walked over to Gu Zheng. However, his eyes were still a little listless.
"What? You're not going to recruit more people? "Gu Zheng could not help but laugh when he saw the other party arrive before him.
"Ai, don't mention it. In any case, failure is much better. I'll rest a bit and adjust my mood before going. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Gu has found a task that suits you?" Mi Fei's tone was somewhat downcast. However, he did not give up and turned to ask Gu Zheng.
"These tasks don't seem to suit me. It's making things difficult for me." Gu Zheng bitterly smiled and pointed up.
"How could that be? Doesn't it seem reasonable up there? "Mi Fei was somewhat puzzled and continued.
"Look at those Elder Gods who aren't strong enough. Although it's a bit of a waste of time, it's safe enough. And if you're fast enough, it's actually not bad. I relied on that to get through at the beginning.
"The middle section is mainly for tribal battles, and it's mainly for our central region. There are special missions up there. They're of the same type, but the targets are different.
"At the very top are the individual missions. Usually, it's about which space is unstable and needs our experts to fix it, or some unexpected phenomenon. It's a bit dangerous, but as long as you're careful, there shouldn't be any problems. Those are missions that only peak and late Jin Xian can take on. Eh, where's the mission?"
Mi Fei, who had been subconsciously introducing Gu Zheng, couldn't help but shout when he saw that the top section was completely blank.
"It disappeared a long time ago. It's obvious that something big is about to happen. Otherwise, they wouldn't have come out. Don't make a fuss over nothing. Can't you see that we're all waiting?" Someone nearby couldn't help but mock.
