Chapter 155: Being in the Mortal Realm

Chapter 155: Being in the Mortal Realm (Additional Chapter )
Ding Huan and his group fled for three days before they stopped.

"Xiao Tu, I didn't feel hungry for several days before, but now I'm starving even after taking several energy capsules a day."

After Ding Huan decided not to escape, Qi Xinyue couldn't help but say what she had always wanted to say.

Ding Huan nodded, he also felt hungry.

Now he is almost like an ordinary mortal. He needs to eat two meals a day, otherwise he will feel obviously hungry.

Energy capsules don't seem to ward off hunger in this place.

Qi Xinyue didn't understand this logic, but Ding Huan vaguely understood that this should be related to the rules of heaven and earth.

Ding Huan's spiritual sense had already swept to a city. The city was quite bustling with people coming and going. There were three ancient characters on the city gate: Jihe City.

I came from Luo River and then to Ji River. It seems that I have a special connection with rivers.

Just stay in this city first, and wait until he gets familiar with the other things.

When heading to Jihe City, Ding Huan was making calculations.

However, there are too many powerful people here, and many of the things he calculated are vague.

But generally speaking, nothing life-threatening should happen. I'm too lazy to think about it and will just stay here for now.

"Finally I saw the city."

When the group walked outside Jihe City, Lou Buzhi swallowed his saliva.

It was obvious that he was also very hungry, but he just didn't say it out loud.

Jihe City is not as big as Sixiang City, but its popularity is not much less than that of Sixiang City.

Compared to Sixiang City where all kinds of races exist, Jihe City is basically populated by humans, and there are no minotaurs or the like.

Ding Huan and a few others decided to find a resting place first.

When he entered the city, he took a rough look and found that there seemed to be a simple defensive formation outside Jihe City.

Among the people walking in Jihe City, there are warriors and cultivators, but more are ordinary mortals who have never practiced cultivation.

Ding Huan, the foundation-building cultivator, did not feel it, but there were many people whose strength was equivalent to that of genetic cultivators between level three and level five.

Because he had just arrived here, Ding Huan didn't know whether the people here could integrate various skill genes.

Ding Huan chose an inn that didn't look too high-end.

"An ordinary room for one night is fifty Zhenye coins."

When the waiter saw Ding Huan and his two companions staying at the hotel with a pet, he immediately came up to them with a smile.

Real industry currency?
Ding Huan took out a crystal stone he got from Sister Tou:
"I've run out of Zhenye coins. Can you help me exchange some for this?"

Ding Huan knew that this crystal stone actually came from this place.

It should be a fragment of a certain kind of Yuan Qi Stone, which was brought to the Four Directions Star Continent by the people here for trading.

Since it's something here, it wouldn't be too abrupt for him to take it out for trading.

The guy looked at the crystal fragment in Ding Huan's hand and shook his head:
"My friend, you should go to the bank to exchange it. We don't exchange it here. It's not good to have too much or too little."

"Thank you very much."

Ding Huan's mind had already swept to a money house diagonally opposite, called Yunji Money House.

Looking at the backs of Ding Huan and others, the guy felt a little strange.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be anyone in the Zhenye Empire who doesn't know where to exchange Shattered Crystals for Zhenye Coins, right?

Ding Huan didn't know what the clerk was thinking, as he had already arrived at Yunji Money House.

"What's the market like now?"

As soon as he arrived at Yunji Bank, Ding Huan took out a piece of broken crystal and asked very skillfully.

The guy took a look at the broken crystal in Ding Huan's hand:
"Now one broken crystal stone is worth three thousand real industry coins."

Ding Huan frowned:

"Why is it so low?"

Ding Huan was not talking nonsense. He knew that in the Four-Direction Star Continent, one crystal coin could be exchanged for ten thousand purple gold coins.

He had never seen crystal coins before, and he thought that crystal coins should be made of this kind of broken crystal stones.

According to this exchange rate, one of his broken crystals should be exchanged for ten thousand.

Even with discounts and losses, one coin cannot be exchanged for three thousand.

The guy said lazily:

"This is the highest price. If you don't want to exchange, you can go to another store."

Ding Huan had no choice but to take out two broken crystal stones:

"Please exchange two for me."

The guy quickly took out six real industry coins.

Ding Huan discovered that each of these Zhenye coins was worth one thousand, so he immediately put away five thousand:
"Please exchange this thousand for some small denominations."

The guy didn't care and helped Ding Huan take five hundred-denomination notes, and the rest were all ten-denomination notes.

Ding Huan scanned the waiter's cash box and saw that there were one-denomination and five-denomination notes in it.

After comparing, Ding Huan completely understood.

This Zhenye coin is really hard to counterfeit, because the higher the value of the Zhenye coin, the higher the amount of crystals it contains. Moreover, the method of making coins is very clever, locking up all the vitality in the crystals.

Once the vitality in it disappears, this Zhenye Coin is likely to collapse.

……

With 6,000 Zhenye coins, Ding Huan immediately bought several introductions to the humanities and geography of Star Land.

This includes introductions to the Three Heavenly Star Land’s mortal world, the Zhenye Empire, and Jihe City.

Ding Huan wanted to buy some introductions to the Taoist world and the Ascension world, but these things could not be purchased in the mortal world.

After buying the things, Ding Huan and his friends went to eat immediately.

I'm really hungry.

The staple food here is also rice, and the meat of ferocious beasts is simply grilled or steamed without any other cooking methods.

The only advantage is that the quantity is large and it is enough to fill you up.

Lou Buzhi used his actions to tell Ding Huan and others why he was so fat.

Ding Huan was thinking while eating, why on Earth and the Four-Direction Star Continent, one meal could last him for many days, but here he would get hungry quickly?
If it is really related to the rules of heaven and earth as he guessed, how can the rules of heaven and earth be touched?

Is it true that touching the rules of heaven and earth is the beginning of true Taoist practice?
With Ding Huan's current knowledge and strength, he naturally couldn't figure out the reason.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Ding Huan paid out 120 Zhenye coins.

This made Ding Huan feel that Zhenye Coin was really not worth spending.

Instead of going to the previous inn, Ding Huan and his friends changed to another inn this time, the Youshi Inn.

Unlike other inns, Youshi Inn is not very quiet.

Because the first floor of Youshixizhan is a rest building, or a tea room.

The difference between a rest house and a inn is that a rest house provides accommodation, while a rest house is a place for individual travelers to rest.

You can drink tea, snacks, and even alcohol here.

Ding Huan did not come here to practice. His purpose in living here was to find out some news from the mortal world.

The reason for choosing Youxilou Teahouse was that I could hear more about the Three Heavens Star Land.

The rooms this time are more upscale. There are four rooms in total for three people plus Lao Liu, which costs nearly three hundred Zhenye coins a night.

Ding Huan only had 6,000 Zhenye coins on him, and he had to use some of them to buy notes and eat, so he had to find a way to make money as soon as possible, otherwise he would really spend all his money.

"Brother Huan, thank you. If it weren't for you, I would probably still be living on the streets now."

He was extremely grateful for living in Xizhanlou, he made the right choice.

Brother Huan is a very affectionate person. Even though he is not very close to him, since they are all from the Four Directions Star Continent, Brother Huan still takes good care of him.

Ding Huan took a photo downstairs and didn't know:

“Don’t worry, since there is a cultivation world here, they will definitely recruit disciples from the mortal world. I will go and ask about it later.

Since you can practice, you must have spiritual roots and will definitely be able to enter the world of cultivation."

Ding Huan was certain that Lou Buzhi had spiritual roots, because Lou Buzhi was able to practice, and the technique he practiced was not genetic.

Qi Xinyue was able to practice without having any genetic spiritual roots fused, so it was natural that she had spiritual roots.

The only thing he was worried about was himself, as his spiritual roots were generated by the fusion of genetic spiritual root potion.

Because everyone has a room, the first thing Lao Liu did when he returned to his room was to strive for the Foundation Establishment Stage.

This guy is completely obsessed with breaking through to the foundation-building demon cultivation level. As long as he changes to a new place, he will definitely break through to the foundation-building demon cultivation level.

He was restricted by Ding Huan on the spaceship and was not allowed to practice, otherwise this guy would definitely try to become a foundation-building demon cultivator on the spaceship.

As soon as Ding Huan arrived in the room, he took out several humanities and geography notes for research.

Half an hour later, Ding Huan threw the notes into the star house.

He roughly understood where he was.

There was no detailed introduction to the Three Heavens Star Continent, and the mortal world where he was now was actually an imperial world.

There are hundreds of large empires in the mortal world, and countless small and medium-sized empires.

These empires were basically established by the descendants of the Taoist world, or by some Taoist monks who were unable to advance.

Basically all empires are related to the Taoist world, and those that are not related have long been wiped out in the dust of history.

The Zhenye Empire also has a close relationship with the Taoist world, and they provide various convenient services to the Taoist world's backstage.

And their backers will also provide them with protection.

Zhenye Coin is one of them.

Zhenye Coin cannot be produced in ordinary mortal workshops, but is refined by powerful Taoist masters through formations, crystal elements and a certain kind of metal material.

With the Taoist magic integrated into it, this kind of currency is difficult to imitate.

The currencies of other empires were similar, and some empires with relatively good relations would use the same currency.

What Ding Huan is most concerned about is the day when the Taoist community will come to the Zhenye Empire to recruit disciples, according to the Zhenye Empire notes.

Every year, the major sects in the Taoist world come to the mortal world to recruit disciples twice. One time is on a large scale, which is at the beginning of the year, and the other time is on a medium scale, which is in the middle of the year.

Ding Huan looked at the time period they were in now, and there was still more than a month until the middle of the year.
