Chapter 1430 – City of Discord
“This is the City of Discord…”
Lin Ming looked at the massive city in front of hih and the city gate was thick and heavy, made from some unknown material All sorts of complicated seals were etched onto its surface
On each side of the city gates was a hefty-looking guard These people were both from the demon race and were equal to a late Divine Transformation human martial artist in cultivation
“The city entrance fee is a single origin energy rune for each person”
As Lin Ming approached, the two guards glanced towards him without any expression
“Origin energy rune?” Lin Ming was startled This sort of thing sounded like a currency In the Asura Road, did even the currency consist of runes?
At this ti, Soulwhite hurriedly walked forwards He wiped his hands together and so two runes that fleards the guards
One of the guards took out a jade slip and received the two runes He stoically said, “You may enter”
With a wave of the guard’s hand, Lin Ming and Soulwhite entered the city
“Origin energy runes are currency here? Then is it not possible to use the nine sun jades I brought?” Lin Ming asked If this were true then things would be a bit inconvenient for him
“Nine sun jades…” Soulwhite was startled He naturally knehat nine sun jades were They were an extree unit of currency to the humans
“Master’s background is truly grand” Soulwhite said, “Reporting to Master, nine sun jades can be used, but only demons and humans will accept them The spiritas and saints don’t have much use for the nine sun jades The soul race will accept soul stones and the saint race will accept blood de crystals”
“So that’s how it is…” Lin Ming said, suddenly aware There were many different races in the Asura Road, and because of differences in cultivation syste values to them
“How are origin energy runes obtained?” Lin Ming asked
Soulwhite said, “In the Asura Road, there are many blank runes These blank runes can absorb heaven and earth origin energy to beco tiy runes are the most basic fored for all other types of currencies Other types of currencies can be exchanged for origin energy runes, but the exchange rate will be a bit lower Generally speaking, 10,000 or so violet sun stones can be exchanged for a single origin energy rune”
“Understood” Lin Ming nodded With Soulwhite following hiht even have had trouble entering the city gates
As Lin Ming was about to walk deeper into the city, he discovered that many other ates
“How come those people don’t need to pay an entrance fee?”
“They are permanent residents of the City of Discord” Soulwhite explained He knew a great deal about this area “Within the City of Discord, the permanent residents are protected by the law enforcement team If there is anyone that attacks or poses a threat to the lives of the city residents then they will be hunted down by law enforcement and killed As for those that aren’t permanent residents of the City of Discord, they do not receive this treatment If they die, they die, and nobody cares This is why many people want to become permanent residents here, however… it is simply far too difficult for most The simplest method to become a permanent resident in the City of Discord is to buy a house here, but even the cheapest house is several hundred y runes Even if a Divine Lord powerhouse had unliin energy at all times every day, they would still require several hundred thousand years to produce that y runes And, a Divine Lord powerhouse can only live for 100,000 years They would have to work for several generations to accomplish that”
“Such a ridiculous house price?” Lin Ming felt this was unbelievable Even if a Divine Lord powerhouse were to work for a lifetime they still wouldn’t be able to afford a house? In the Divine Realm this would be incredible
Several hundred y runes was equal to several trillion violet sun stones, around half of a Boundless World Pill This was a completely unfathomable price to an ordinary Divine Lord powerhouse!
“It is norhter is everywhere It is hard to find a safe place to live If one can become a permanent resident then they will have a safe place to cultivate and won’t need to worry about being killed every day This is an extre proposition to many martial artists However, there is a limited nuh This old servant just said that if one used origin energy runes alone, then even a Divine Lord powerhouse wouldn’t be able to afford it in their lifetime But, periodically, there are those that have heaven-defying luck and will obtain a priceless rare God rune If they sell this God rune it is possible to immediately have the funds to purchase a house After all, there are many outside martial artists that come here to adventure and temper themselves, and what they want are only God runes Moreover, these people are often exorbitantly rich”
“M nodded He was also the sa a house here and only wanted God runes
“Before, you said that there are many places in the City of Discord to obtain God runes”
“Yes, Master, please follow me”
As Soulwhite spoke, he brought Lin Ming to walk towards the center of the city
The streets in the City of Discord were extreer than Lin Ming had ihly-hewn rock that wasn’t carved much at all Even so, it possessed a bold and wild taste to it
As they walked further, Lin Ming discovered that the ood levels of talent There were often martial artists with sloppy foundations, but they would normally be shop attendants, waiters, or entertainers of some sort
Besides these common people, everyone else here was extraordinary
These elites were not just trial challengers that came from the outside 33 Layered Heavens, but also included native residents of the Asura Road
In fact, there were far more native residents of the Asura Road than there were outsiders These people could also cultivate martial arts in the Asura Road as well as attend the sa that was available to the trial challengers was also available to them
