Chapter 617: Tianji Hall
Maven originally thought that his test would end in failure.
But he did not expect that in the end, the flying Tyrannosaurus would actually leave.
“Seriously. Why would such a powerful creature be a test for new players? Look at all of you, so scared for nothing… Which of you brought along an extra pair of pants, lend me one later!”
***
After Jiang Feng had left the cliffs, he then looked for a place where there was no one and dismissed his Wildshape.
If others had seen him in his Wildshape form, they would probably kill him, treating him like a monster.
He only had one life, so he better be careful in the Great World of Tianji.
Once he was in his human form, he carried his backpack and headed straight down the cliff.
After passing through the test, he could use a safe path that would lead downward. There were almost no monsters.
At the foot of the mountain was the town that he had just seen.
There were still some major differences between the Great World of Tianji and the Divine Dominion.
Information on the Great World of Tianji could only be gained when one was in a town or a city.
His understanding of the Great World of Tianji was only at the surface level. His aim of entering the city was to gain some new information about the Great World of Tianji.
The foot of the mountain was not too far from where he was. After about twenty minutes, he had then reached the foot of the mountain.
At this time, there were plenty of players standing near the town gate at the foot of the mountain.
Jiang Feng gave it a good look, and the players were all around the level of Yellow Realm Two Stars.
When they saw that he had just come down from the mountains, the players’ eyes all flashed with interest as they approached him.
These players all looked different, some with big heads, and some of their bodies were quite thin. Some of their eyes were quite large, and some of their noses looked like a bean.
The reason that they were all so strangely shaped must have something to do with the planets that they were from.
It was just as the old saying went, “one’s home determined one’s folks.”
A man with a pair of eyes that looked like beans said to him with a smile, “Friend, you just entered the Great World of Tianji, correct? Do you need any resources? I can accept the currency of any planet. I can sell you a set of equipment for newbies. Of course, if you want something of higher levels or something else, I have them too.”
“Boss, come here! My price is the fairest in Tianxing Town!”
“Boss, buy one free one if you want to buy newbie equipment! You must have friends and family that will join you after this, yes? You can give them a set as a gift! It is worth it, I swear!”
…
In an instant, Jiang Feng was surrounded by a group of players.
He did not expect that the entire group of players was all trying to earn some money from the newbies.
However, he was not exactly a newbie. And he was not that interested in the newbie equipment set.
“I’m sorry, I don’t have any money,” He gave them a faint smile as he moved around them and headed toward Tianxing Town.
“Damn, another poor bum!” When he had already left, all the merchants that were all their smiles turned into scowls. They were even cursing behind his back.
If he was at Divine Dominion, he would have already massacred the lot for their curses.
However, he was in the Great World of Tianji. He chose to avoid making any trouble if he could.
Tianxing Town was a huge town.
At the edge of town were plenty of magic spheres that lit up the entire Tianxing Town.
There were plenty of people on the streets.
They were either strolling leisurely, or they were browsing the shops on the sides of the streets.
Other than these players, there were other players that were yelling about something.
“Those evaluated to have B rank! We are going to the Yellow Sand Hills to kill the Yellow Sand Wolf Boss! If we get a secret manual at the end through the evaluation, you could get it by paying the most! All other items are either distributed or will be auctioned off!”
“Looking for a player from Planet Norm! Inclusive of food, lodging, and transportation! You can choose your items first!”
“Farming reputation at a Forbidden Land! Join us if you dare!”
…
Jiang Feng smiled faintly at these familiar cries.
When he walked on the streets, he saw that plenty of them were quite similar to Earthlings. They had black hair and yellow skin. It looked like the environment of the planets that these players were from were quite similar to Earth.
‘The scientists back home are still looking for life from other planets so that Earthlings have somewhere else to go if things go downhill. Perhaps I can ask some of them where they are from, and maybe even get some technology!’ Jiang Feng thought to himself as he looked at these players that looked similar to him.
However, he did not go and abruptly talk to the players. Since they were not familiar with each other, he would get beaten up if he simply walked up and spoke to them.
As he was walking on the streets, he was paying attention to the shops on the sides.
“The Trading Hall! This is it then!” He then walked toward the Trading Hall after he found where it was.
The Trading Hall was different from the one from Divine Dominion. The Trading Hall in this place looked like a jewelry store.
All the items were placed in glass cabinets, and many of the players were walking around the glass cabinets. Some of the players were already leaning on the glass cabinet with their saliva pouring out. Unfortunately, as they were quite poor, they could only let out a sigh and leave.
“A pair of Supreme Earth Rank Boots with a talent is so expensive! It costs 1,000,000 gold pieces!”
“One Low Yellow Rank Mountain-Splitting Fist is worth 80,000 gold pieces!”
“One Heaven Rank herb costs 20,000 gold pieces!”
…
Jiang Feng investigated the price of some of the resources within the Great World of Tianji as he approached the many glass cabinets.
After looking at the price of these items, he sighed out in satisfaction as he could be considered as a rich player.
A Low Heaven Rank secret manual for the Tyrant Fist could be sold for several million gold pieces, while the pair of Expeditious Boots could be sold for a million. Even the Low Earth Rank Beast Pill could be sold for a hundred thousand!
His net worth had already reached several millions.
Looking at the players that were hesitating, he knew that among these players, those that could take out a hundred thousand were already considered quite wealthy. Meanwhile, he was beyond wealthy.
If those players knew what he had on him, his guess was that many of the players would be willing to surround and mug him.
After walking around for a bit, he did not buy or sell anything and chose to leave.
At this time, he had some understanding of the price of the items in the Great World of Tianji.
Next, he would need to go to Tianji Hall to find a way back home and return to the real world.
The Tianji Hall was a place that was connected to all the planets.
However, there were very few players that went to Tianji Hall. Even if there were any, they would choose to sneak into the Tianji Hall as they were afraid of others finding out that they had used their real body to enter the Great World of Tianji.
After finding out where the Tianji Hall was in Tianxing Town, he scanned his surroundings and then entered it when no one was paying any attention.
Whoom!
The moment he stepped into Tianji Hall, he could feel that he was standing on nothing. His body was suddenly enveloped by a pillar of milky-white light and his entire body was floating within Tianji Hall.
There were plenty of doors around Tianji Hall.
Ding. Scanning for your planet’s location. Scanning complete. The gateway to Earth is now opened. Will you use your reputation to exchange for items?”
A system’s voice appeared as a door floated and emerged in front of him.
“No!”
He was not going to bring anything out, so he was not going to waste his reputation.
After he had said that he then stepped into the gateway in front of him. He saw a flash and his body disappeared from Tianji Hall.
