"I want information on the different forbidden zones in the Western Central Region and also information on the upcoming auction." Stepping inside the relatively small room followed by another staff mber from the Explorer Union, Xuan Hao didn’t bother wasting any ti as he directly stated what he wanted after the other person sat down in front of him.
"I-Information on the different forbidden zones and the upcoming auction...? Ah! Wait a second, I will be right back!" Taken aback by the request, the staff mber who had barely managed to sit down froze for a brief second before quickly getting back up out of the room. Almost tripping over the doorfra in the process as he disappeared around the corner, likely to get his hands on the information he had just requested.
After all, while information on the auction might be simple to get considering it was held in the city itself. Information on the different forbidden zones scattered throughout the Western Central Region was far from simple.
Even though the staff mber that had taken over and would oversee selling him the information he wanted was in the Third Stage of the Domain Lord Realm, it wasn’t odd for him to not have gained access to information on the different forbidden zones scattered throughout the Western Central Region.
The only way for soone like that to get their hands on this kind of information would be if another person had co before him and requested similar information, but... That was sothing highly unlikely considering that the information on so many forbidden zones was beyond what a normal Soul Ascension Realm cultivators could afford. Even if a Peak Soul Ascension Realm cultivator could afford it, they would be unlikely to buy information on all the forbidden zones and would instead limit it to a few specific forbidden zones they might be interested in.
In a sense, his request for information on the different forbidden zones scattered throughout the Western Central Region was highly unusual for his outwardly displayed cultivation realm, but he didn’t really care much about this, as the Explorer Union would only think of him as a sowhat odd Soul Ascension Realm cultivator. Nothing more.
After all, he was still their custor and was buying the information from them, why would they complain if he bought more information than a normal Soul Ascension Realm cultivator?
Rustle~
Because of this, as the staff mber that had just run off earlier returned to the room, his face was filled with joy as he began to present the information he had gathered on the different forbidden zones. Not forgetting to also ask how much he wanted to know about the different forbidden zones.
After all, the more he wanted to know, the more spirit stones it would cost and he, as the one handling this sale of information, would be able to take a significant cut himself at the end...
Unfortunately for this staff mber who was hoping he would ask for the most detailed information on the different forbidden zones, he just wanted to learn about the locations of the different forbidden zones so he could avoid them in case he needed to escape in the future.
Of course, even if this left the staff mber sowhat disappointed, he didn’t dare show any of this on his face, as he still happily handed over the information that had been requested.
Even if the information wasn’t detailed and was just a general location, the sheer quantity of forbidden zones in the Western Central Region that the Explorer Union knew about numbered in the tens of thousands. The cost of this kind of information was still substantial and could compare to buying a dozen or so Lower quality Transcendent Grade Spiritual Herbs.
As for the information on the upcoming auction... That was hardly worth ntioning in comparison and only cost a few low-grade spirit stones, sothing that even a Foundation Establishnt cultivator would be able to buy.
And maybe because of that, the staff mber who had just been handed over a small interspatial ring filled with high grade spirit stones from Xuan Hao decided to give him this cheap information for free.
In the end, Xuan Hao soon found himself standing outside the Explorer Union Branch with a new interspatial ring holding a detailed map of the Western Central Region where all the forbidden zones were clearly marked down in great detail.
Along with that, a side benefit was that the map itself also contained clearly drawn lines indicating the borders of the different major powers. Giving him a better understanding of the overall layout of the Western Central Region and where the different major powers were located. Allowing him to also avoid them during a potential escape.
As for the information on the upcoming auction that had been handed over to him for free... It wasn’t that the information wasn’t detailed, but instead that the information was easy to find just by asking around a bit.
Essentially, the information boiled down to where the upcoming auction was being held, who was behind the auction and when it started.
The location, a building right next to the Explorer Union Branch he had just stepped out of.
The ones behind the upcoming auction? Unsurprisingly, soone from the Explorer Union.
Starting ti of the auction? Two days from now.
"For so reason, the fact that they don’t just announce the information that they are holding an auction but instead require people to buy the information from them feels a bit..."
Greedy?
Muttering this to himself as he thought out the last bit in his head, Xuan Hao slowly looked up at the large building that was located right next to the Explorer Union Branch.
From a glance, the building looked empty and almost abandoned, but upon further inspection, it was clear that there was a lot of people currently working inside the building, so of them clearly powerful cultivators ranging from the Domain Lord Realm all the way up to the Soul Ascension Realm.
