Chapter 678.
Chapter 678 – Choice
“Spirit crystals contain a large amount of spiritual qi and are widely circulated currency.”
The male cultivator said, taking out a flat jade out of thin air.
“Like the one in my hand, it’s the most common lower-grade spirit crystal. In addition, there are also better quality medium grade spirit crystals, upper grade spirit crystals, and extreme grade spirit crystals.
These are all common sense things that you will naturally know after spending some time in the Spirit World, and this is your identity token.”
Xu Chuniang took the token and followed the two men’s guidance, punching a divine soul into the token to complete her identification.
This identity token was somewhat similar to the Sea Walking Order, only that whether it was the material or the refining method, it was much more advanced than the Sea Walking Order, and extremely difficult to imitate.
“This identity token, is your only credentials to walk in the Human Race, if you lose it, it will be very troublesome to replace it, be sure to keep it carefully.”
Xu Chuniang understood, if the token was lost and utilized by certain unsuspecting people, it might cause some trouble.
“Nowadays, we are in the midst of an eventful period, in the area of the Dangqiu Mountain to the east, the battle with the Giant Race has been going on for more than a thousand years, and the Night Fork Race to the north, from time to time, will carry out raids on our Human Race’s cities and ponds.
The half-beast race along the southwest, and between my human race, there has also been constant friction in recent years. These three battlefields, you can choose any one to go to.”
The female cultivator took out a map and pointed to several major battlefields on the map, briefly describing today’s form.
Xu Chuniang swept her gaze across these places on the map, “The Giant Race, the Night Fork Race, and the Half-Beast Race, how are the strengths of these groups?”
“The Giant Race’s numbers are relatively sparse, but they are powerful, and when they reach adulthood, they are equivalent to our Human Race’s Refined Void stage.”
Every giant had the strength of the Void Refining Stage, with her cultivation at the early stage of Transformation Spirit going forward to Dangqiu Mountain, it was simply too much to die fast enough.
Xu Chuniang decisively abandoned Dangqiu Mountain, her gaze looking to the north.
Following her gaze to the map, the female cultivator continued.
“The Night Fork Clan has ugly faces and ferocious natures, and most of the time, they hibernate in their lairs.
Every ten years or decades or so, they will be led by several large Night Forks of the Harmonization Stage and launch raids on human cities.”
“When was the last time the Night Fork Race launched a raid?”
“Twenty-two years ago, five Great Night Forks of the Conjugation Stage had led thirty-six Void Refining Stage powerhouses, as well as hundreds of Night Fork Clansmen of the Transformation Stage, to launch a surprise attack on the Northern Realm’s Spirit Yue City.
In that battle, our human race fell two Conformity Stage powers and six Void Refining Stage powerhouses, and swore to defend Spirit Yue City.”
The Night Fork Clan’s attack on Spirit Yue City occurred twenty-two years ago.
Going to the north to serve in the army, if one was lucky, one might not encounter a Night Fork Clan attack for thirty years.
But if one was unlucky, one might face a massive attack from the Night Fork Clan not long after going.
With her cultivation nowadays, once she was caught up in a battle between Harmonization Stage powers, it was obvious that she would be in for a rough ride.
This Spirit Yue City, it was better to try not to go there if she could.
In the end, Xu Chuniang looked towards the southwest, and it seemed that this was the only option left.
“Compared to the Giant Race and the Night Fork Race, the Half-Beast Race is indeed weaker, and adult Half-Beasts tend to have cultivation levels between the middle stage of Spirit Transformation and the early stage of Void Refinement.
It’s just that the battlefield in the southwest is in constant conflict, and is the most frequent of the three.”
Without much hesitation, Xu Chunniang chose to head to the battlefield at the southwest.
Compared to the Giant Race at the Refined Void stage and the Night Fork Race at the Ensemble stage, this Orc was instead the weakest.
After the female cultivator registered, she handed Xu Chunniang a flying sword and a small bag of spirit crystals.
“This is the welfare issued to every serving cultivator, a flying sword of the lower fifth rank, and a hundred lower grade spirit crystals. You’ll be able to receive even more rewards when you’ve made military achievements in the army. Of course, all of this is based on the premise that you can survive, good luck.”
Xu Chuniang received the flying sword and spirit crystals, and after thanking the two of them, she walked towards the outside.
After her figure completely disappeared, the female cultivator withdrew her gaze, “Do you think that she can survive these thirty years?”
The male cultivator thought for a moment, “There should be a 30% chance that she can survive, after all, a cultivator who ascended from the lower realms, at least their luck won’t be too bad.
But it’s also possible, the cultivators in the lower realm are too poor to have any decent magic treasures, this five price lower grade flying sword, when it meets a more powerful Orc, it will be wrenched off with bare hands.”
The female cultivator nodded in agreement and sighed leisurely, the number of cultivators who had died over the years was just too many.
It was also unknown when these few races, when would they stop.
As the two conversed, Xu Chuniang walked out of the reception place and stepped onto the land of the Spirit Realm.
After taking a deep breath of aura, a satisfied look appeared on her face.
Compared to the Qian Luo Realm, the spiritual qi here was a hundred times denser, and second- and third-order spirit grasses and spirit mines were almost everywhere, and no one wanted them at all.
Xu Chuniang raised her head to look at the sky of the Spirit Realm, which was much higher and farther away, with a clarifying and penetrating beauty.
Thinking of what those two had said, she swung out a fist and struck towards the void.
A series of loud blasting sounds rang out in the air, and the void was unharmed, not even a ripple.
Sure enough, the space here was much more stable than the Qian Luo Realm, and the laws were much more perfect.
In the Qian Luo Realm, when she only had the cultivation of a Yuan Ying, she was able to easily tear through the void.
Right now in the Spirit Realm, she couldn’t shake the void with all her strength.
With a thought, Xu Chuniang’s figure disappeared in place, launching an instantaneous shift towards the southwest.
Sure enough, the distance of the transient, too, was greatly shortened, the laws of the Spirit Realm, suppressed just too much.
What made her even more speechless was that with just a slight attempt, the spiritual qi in her body, was consumed by one third.
Xu Chuniang tried to communicate with the heavens and earth, wanting to use this as a way to restore her body’s spiritual qi, and after communicating for a long time, she didn’t wait for this heaven and earth to respond.
She shook her head helplessly, it seemed that she could only use the old method of absorbing spiritual qi by running her gong methods.
She had to find a place to convert her aura first, if she couldn’t make it to the Southwest Battlefield on time within a year, she would miss the time of her service.
Recalling the map in her mind, Xu Chuniang headed towards the nearest town.
The Human Race’s Mahayana Venerable Masters had explicitly forbidden human cultivators to kill each other, but there were always some people who hunted and killed lower-ranked cultivators to obtain cultivation resources, relying on their high cultivation level.
Compared to the wild, the rules in the city are strict and there are high-level cultivators, so very few people make trouble and kill people.
She was a ceiling level warrior in the Qian Luo Realm, but the Spirit Realm was full of people with higher cultivation than her, so for safety’s sake, it was safer to go to a nearby town.
Arriving at the nearest Qu City, the cultivator guarding the gate swept a glance at the storage ring on Xu Chuniang’s hand, and a look of realization flashed in his eyes, another one from the lower realms.
“Entry fee, ten spirit crystals.”
Xu Chuniang frowned, she clearly saw that the cultivator who had entered earlier had only paid five spirit crystals.
How did it come to her that she needed ten?
