Thinking about this, Yang Chen couldn’t help but ask a few more questions, "So you mean, the Ji Yu Essence rewards from killing enemies alone wouldn’t be too many?"
"Of course not. The Flame Spirit Race is just a vassal of the Ruthless Beast Race, simple cannon fodder. How much Ji Yu Essence can you get from killing a few outstanding members of the cannon fodder? That’s why only those of us with low merit grades are willing to do this thankless job. Those with higher merit grades are not interested in these cannon fodder at all, and it’s not worth any money after they’re killed."
Although Mo Wenfeng regretted helping Yang Chen, since he had agreed, there was no turning back. Otherwise, wouldn’t he have done a thankless job?
He explained earnestly, "What’s really valuable is the Ruthless Beast Race, the Spirit God Race, as well as the Netherworld, Insect Race, and other races. These races pose a great threat to humans, and killing one could get quite a lot of Ji Yu Essence. If you kill some powerful characters, the rewards are even more astonishing. Unfortunately, those famous foreign race people are extremely difficult to kill. It’s better for small characters like us not to think too much."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chen understood a lot.
In his heart, he began to plan secretly. Before going to the Earth Spirit Hall, he had to clearly understand the merit system.
"By the way, Brother Yang Chen, where do you plan to go next? Are you heading directly to the Earth Spirit Hall?" Mo Wenfeng asked with a smile.
"Well, my original goal was to go to the Earth Spirit Hall. Now that I have the Fantasy Horn, I should go to the Earth Spirit Hall and exchange it for some Ji Yu Essence first," Yang Chen replied.
Mo Wenfeng said, "That’s right. It’s necessary for you newers to take a look at the Earth Spirit Hall. In that case, let me be your guide, Brother Yang Chen, follow me. But before going to the Earth Spirit Hall, you need to learn about the Ancient Divine Realm first."
"Learn about the Ancient Divine Realm?" Yang Chen couldn’t help but ask.
Mo Wenfeng stroked his beard, "Exactly, the Earth Spirit Hall is just a part of the Ancient Divine Realm. You’ll understand once you get there."
"I would be more than grateful if Brother Mo is willing to lead the way," Yang Chen smiled.
Mo Wenfeng shook his head with a smile, having no other thoughts about Yang Chen and just wanting to lend a hand.
So, the two set off for the Ancient Divine Realm together.
On the way, Yang Chen learned about the environment of the Ancient Divine Realm from Mo Wenfeng’s description.
For example, the place where they were was above the Extreme North Star, and there were many interfaces around the Ancient Divine Realm, most of which were ruled by humans.
However, pared to the Ancient Divine Realm, which was relatively safe, none of the Star Domain Interfaces surrounding the Ancient Divine Realm was considered absolutely safe.
There was no other way, that’s how it was in a war-torn area.
The Extreme North Star was not far from the Ancient Divine Realm, just one day’s journey, and the two arrived at the Ancient Divine Realm.
But as soon as they arrived, several Sky Separation Realm bodyguards stopped them. It was only when they saw that they were humans did they choose to let them pass.
Yang Chen and Mo Wenfeng then entered the Ancient Divine Realm.
Upon entering the Ancient Divine Realm, Yang Chen expanded his soul covering.
The entire Ancient Divine Realm was far larger than the Lingnan Two Realms, and even larger than the Star Domain Interface of the Taiyuan Star System.
Moreover, the Heavenly Law and Spiritual Energy within the interface had been reinforced by Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses, which were pletely different from the interfaces that Yang Chen had seen before.
This kind of interface was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even Sky Separation Realm experts couldn’t bring their full power to bear within it, and it had all been rewritten by the laws established by the Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses.
After entering this plane, Yang Chen saw many people moving around and couldn’t help but exclaim, "There are so many powerful people in the Ancient Divine Realm."
"Of course, there are countless powerful people in the Ten Thousand Realms, and many of them want to rise above others. The easiest way to do this is either to join a major sect or to go to the Earth Spirit Hall. For example, many Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouses are unable to join the three major factions of the Divine Night Sect, or they are far from the Taiyuan Star System, and they choose to e to the Ancient Divine Realm to fight," Mo Wenfeng explained.
Yang Chen nodded, "Why doesn’t any of these powerful people fly?"
"It’s the rules. No one cares about it outside, but within the Ancient Divine Realm, everyone must follow the rules. Only eighth-level merit powerhouses and above are allowed to fly within the interface. Anyone else must be honest. However, Sky Separation Realm powerhouses with eighth-level merit are rare. Many Heavenly Fate Realm experts only possess eighth-level merit," Mo Wenfeng explained.
Yang Chen understood instantly as he saw the strict management of powerful people in the Ancient Divine Realm.
All these Sky Separation Realm powerhouses followed the rules obediently, not daring to take a fast pace while walking.
"The Ancient Divine Realm is so vast that even my soul can hardly explore it all. I don’t know where the Earth Spirit Hall is," Yang Chen said.
"The Earth Spirit Hall is located in the center of the Ancient Divine Realm, but before that, Daoist Friend Yang Chen should find a place to live first. It’s better to find a place to live earlier in the Ancient Divine Realm," Mo Wenfeng said.
Yang Chen suddenly remembered that it was indeed necessary to find a place to live; after all, one needs to have a place to settle down wherever they go. He couldn’t always be wandering around.
But he hadn’t been paying attention to this before, thinking that finding a place to live would be easy.
However, now that he saw the bitterness and seriousness in Mo Wenfeng’s words, it seemed not to be so simple.
"Is it difficult to find a place to live?" Yang Chen asked.
Mo Wenfeng shook his head, "Not necessarily. For those with high merit grades, there are many choices of places to live, and the treatment is top-notch. For example, near the Sky Opening Mountain, there’s even an Origin Ancient Tree brought back from a foreign realm by a Heavenly Extreme Realm powerhouse. Building a cave mansion and cultivating near the Origin Ancient Tree improves your law prehension speed significantly. Unfortunately, only those with ninth-level merit and above can cultivate there."
Yang Chen was surprised, "So strict?"
"Cultivating near Sky Opening Mountain is something I can’t count on in this life. Being able to settle down near the Dragon Pattern River in the Lingxu Ancient State is enough for me. But those places aren’t for someone with my merit grade to enter," Mo Wenfeng said.
Yang Chen realized that he still had much to learn about the Ancient Divine Realm.
He couldn’t help asking, "So where can someone with my merit grade live?"
"For those with merit grades below four, like us, there are three choices," Mo Wenfeng explained, "First, you can spend Ji Yu Essence to stay in places like the Lingxu Ancient State for a while. However, the prices are all very high, and everyone uses Ji Yu Essence to upgrade their merit. Spending Ji Yu Essence to temporarily stay there is not a popular choice among everyone."
