(Apologies for the wrong sequence of the first few chapters.)
Phew!
The teleportation array's Yuan Qi vibrated as Yi Yun and Ru'er's figures appeared in it.
"Senior, Myriad City is up ahead," said Ru'er.
From the Red Cauldron Sect to the core of the Myriad Divine Territory, Yi Yun and Ru'er had passed through several teleportation arrays. They had finally arrived at their destination.
The Myriad Divine Territory was massive, and in the middle of it was Myriad City.
After walking out of the teleportation array, Yi Yun looked ahead. The entire Myriad City was built on a massive plain. At a glance, there were rows upon rows of pavilions and buildings. And the entire plain was filled with surging Heaven Earth Yuan Qi that constantly gathered towards Myriad City. From afar, one could sense a terrifying awe-inspiring force.
"Senior, we can't fly above Myriad City. Let me hail a carriage," said Ru'er.
"Alright, go ahead." Yi Yun nodded.
He was completely unfamiliar with Myriad City, so Lin Tiancheng requested for Ru'er to follow him. Ru'er had been to Myriad City several times, so she knew the place like the back of her hand. It saved Yi Yun a lot of trouble.
"In the future, don't call me senior. Just call me by my name," said Yi Yun.
Although he did not mind the misunderstanding of his age, he still found it odd to be addressed as senior daily.
"Then … I'll call you Young Master," said Ru'er. "Then, Young Master, don't call me Miss Nangong. Just call me Ru'er will do."
Ru'er took after her mother's surname. Yi Yun had been addressing her as Miss Nangong along the way, making the girl feel a little apprehensive.
"Alright," said Yi Yun.
Ru'er quickly hailed a carriage. The horse that pulled the carriage was tall and majestic. Its body effused Yuan Qi, making it look valiant and extraordinary. Yi Yun entered the carriage and discovered that the interior was extremely spacious and luxurious.
"Myriad City is said to be a gathering of the entire Myriad Divine Territory and even the Yang God Empyrean Heaven's treasures. Not only are there natural treasures, there are also all sorts of entertainment. The Myriad Immortal Pavilion holds a Myriad Treasure Exchange every ten years. At the exchange, the most precious treasures in the Myriad Divine Territory will appear. It attracts the entire Yang God Empyrean Heaven, and even warriors from other Empyrean Heavens. "
"There are still three years to the next exchange. When the time comes, you will definitely be able to buy what you want. Myriad City has everything. This is what makes Myriad City famous. "Ru'er sat in the carriage as she introduced the city to Yi Yun.
"There's no harm in waiting for three years. Let's stay in Myriad City for now," said Yi Yun.
"Alright, then we will have to make a trip to Myriad Pavilion. That's where Myriad City can exchange money, as well as purchase rental properties and obtain residency rights," said Ru'er.
Yi Yun nodded. On the way here, Ru'er had already told him that although Myriad City circulated World Stones and Chaos Stones, the true top-grade treasures could not be exchanged for World Stones. Instead, they had to be exchanged using Myriad Runes.
These Myriad Runes were jointly issued by the ten major factions of the Myriad Divine Territory. There was only one way to obtain them, and that was to pawn natural treasures to these major factions. The more precious the natural treasure, the more runes one could exchange for. As for low-grade treasures, the ten major factions were unwilling to purchase them.
At the end of the day, the Myriad Divine Territory still favored bartering. Such runic coins were only used to make it more convenient to measure the value of items.
The carriage sped down the road. After entering the city, Yi Yun saw bustling shops lining both sides of the road. The streets were packed with people and carriages. It was a thousand times livelier than a capital city in the mortal world.
From time to time, powerful auras would appear on the streets. The warriors that came and went were not weak either. It was probably rare to see so many experts gathered in other places.
If there were already so many warriors in Myriad City during normal times, it would probably be even more bustling during the auction. It was a grand occasion.
Even if they were not here to purchase the herbs needed to refine the Hollow Soul Pill, a trip to Myriad City was still an eye-opener.
"Young Master, we have arrived at Myriad Pavilion."
The carriage stopped in front of a tall tower, and martial artists went in and out like flowing water.
Ru'er led the way and soon, a Myriad Pavilion steward came forward to welcome them.
"Dear customer, what can I do for you?" The manager's face was brimming with smiles.
Yi Yun handed over a bunch of interspatial rings. These interspatial rings were obtained from the enemies he had killed.
"Help me exchange for the items in here if they are of use. Also, help me find a place suitable for cultivation," said Yi Yun.
"Alright. Please come over here and have some tea. Please wait a moment," said the steward as he took the interspatial rings.
Myriad Pavilion was part of Myriad City. Warriors that came here would exchange for Myriad Runes, so the exchange rate was naturally fair. If not, there would have been warriors who would have caused a ruckus even without Yi Yun.
While he was waiting, the manager delivered a booklet to him.
Yi Yun's eyes lit up when he opened the booklet. Recorded in it were the prices of various large trading companies.
He searched with his Divine Soul and soon found many Heaven and Earth treasures that tempted him.
Before obtaining the divine alchemist's notebook, Yi Yun did not think much of these items. But now, these treasures were very useful.
Nearly all the treasures were priced in Myriad Runes. Very few were priced in World Stones.
"How expensive …"
Ru'er, who was standing by the side, felt her eyes ache. Treasures worth tens of thousands of runes were not even worth a tenth of the entire Red Cauldron Sect.
Among them, the few treasures that caught Yi Yun's eye were worth hundreds of thousands of runes.
"Oh? There's actually Heavenly Desolate Grass here. 900,000 runes. This is a precious spirit herb recorded in the divine alchemist's notes. Although it's slightly inferior to the Soul Returning Root, it's definitely something that can only be chanced upon. "
900,000 runes sounded expensive, but Yi Yun did not think so. He compared the prices of the other treasures. Many treasures that Yi Yun did not think were worth even a hundredth of the Heavenly Desolate Grass were priced at two to three hundred thousand runes.
The prices were clearly unreasonable.
Yi Yun stroked his chin. From the looks of it, there were many rare treasures in the world. Even the Myriad Divine Territory did not know the value of every treasure.
For example, the Heavenly Desolate Grass was extremely precious in the divine alchemist's notes. However, some of the formulas regarding the Heavenly Desolate Grass might have been unique to the divine alchemist, or they might have been lost in the hundreds of millions of years that followed. This prevented many people from recognizing the value of the Heavenly Desolate Grass. If not, Yi Yun felt that selling it for twenty to thirty million runes would not be expensive.
"I want this Heavenly Desolate Grass in my hands."
Just as Yi Yun was pondering over it, the manager returned.
"Sir, this is your runic jade talisman. After inspecting it, all you need to do is brand it with your spiritual imprint. This jade talisman will not be used by others." The manager returned with a jade tray.
Yi Yun picked up the jade talisman and injected his spiritual energy into it. Immediately, his expression froze.
How poor …
More than ten interspatial rings had only been exchanged for 85,000 runes.
What was the point of buying the Heavenly Desolate Grass? Yi Yun could not even afford any spiritual herb that caught his eye.
On further thought, there was nothing he could do. The people Yi Yun had killed previously were only at the Dao Palace realm at best. The interspatial rings contained items that Yi Yun had no use for. Yi Yun's true treasures, such as the God Advent Tower, the 'Ten Thousand Fey Divine Canon', or the divine alchemist's notes, were not things he could take out.
In fact, the wealth Yi Yun possessed was already considered rather wealthy. However, at the Myriad Treasure Exchange, the treasures would only be more expensive. There was no lack of Supremacies or old freaks that had lived for millions of years, or even Divine Lords!
Compared to those people, Yi Yun was poor.
"As for the residence that you require, I have already sorted out the suitable cultivation grounds in Myriad City. You can choose any you like." The steward took out a map.
"There's no need." Yi Yun pondered for a moment before looking up and saying, "I've changed my mind. Choose a quieter store for me."
The steward was slightly taken aback before he hurriedly nodded and said with a smile, "Alright, I'll check which stores are empty."
There were many people who came to Myriad City to do business, so it was nothing strange.
"Young Master, why are you choosing a store?" Ru'er asked in astonishment.
"The herbs I need are rather expensive. The runes I have are somewhat lacking. Furthermore, to ensure that I can get my hands on them, I will probably need more runes. It just so happens that I need to refine pills and cultivate my mind for the next three years. Why don't I open a store? "said Yi Yun.
Yi Yun had gone from the mid-stages of the Dao Manifestation realm to the Dao Palace realm in one fell swoop. The difference in cultivation level was just too great. No matter how high Yi Yun's nomological insights were, he could not avoid problems.
He needed time to stabilize his cultivation level. Three years was not enough.
In that case, Yi Yun planned on studying the divine alchemist's manuals while cultivating. He would refine pills that were useless to him and sell them. Myriad City was bustling with business. Even if he opened a store in a quieter place, there would be no lack of business.
