Chapter 3038 - Fortuna Disciple Tianming



"The heavens must be joking with me, right? Am I really that handsome?" Tianming was speechless.


"Be content. If it weren't for your appearance, you would've been dead by now," Ying Huo sneered.


Tianming sighed, finally coming to terms with his situation. "Well, even though I'm walking into the lion's den, at least I still have a chance to survive, right?"


"I bet you're thinking: 'If the Sky Starvore Fiendart didn't kill people, that would be great. I wouldn't mind trying it tens of thousands of times'," Ying Huo teased.


"Get lost, jerk."


......


Finally, they entered Myriadpath Valley.


From the vast white platform at the end of the Skyward Grandpath, they passed through a narrow corridor shrouded in star mist. Tianming followed Lan Yun forward for about half an hour. At the end of the star mist, a vast fairyland built within a dark vortex appeared before his eyes.


It was a bustling and magnificent world, enveloped in the white mist of midsky essence, making it hazy and mysterious as it stretched endlessly into the distance. Just taking a breath filled him with a sense of tranquility.


Floating continents, islands, even pavilions flying in the sky all had top-tier formations protecting them. Various cosmic plants and trees grew in abundance between heaven and earth! Birds soared in the sky, beasts roamed the land, aquatic creatures swam in rivers, lakes, and seas, and insects and snakes inhabited the jungles.


They were all lifebound beasts, possessing intelligence far beyond wildbeasts. Nourished by midsky essence and growing through cultivation, they exuded a kind of immortal aura; even the insect lifebound beasts gave off a feeling of ethereality.


Tianming's eyes lit up. Even among infinitum-class worlds, none had the unique, otherworldly beauty of Myriadpath Valley. "Perhaps this is the charming aspect of Myriadpath Valley," he sighed.


"I just wonder how many intrigues, conspiracies, and killings are hidden in such a transcendent fairyland... how much bullying, oppression, discrimination, and madness there are." A fairyland was a fairyland, magnificent indeed, but wherever there were people, there was society. And where there was competition, hierarchy, and discrimination, there would inevitably be bloodshed.


Myriadpath Valley was a land of beauty in the universe, but also a land of great competition!


The cosmic plants and trees were ether and infinitum class, all thanks to midsky essence. But it was also due to fallen astrons acting as fertilizer for them.


Tianming followed Lan Yun, roaming through the misty white fairyland, walking among the colorful flowers and palaces and past the towering mountains, vast rivers, and endless forests.... All of which had traces of human activity!


Countless lifebound beasts freely roamed, and even Lan Huang felt like coming out for a few laps, but unfortunately it wasn't possible right now.


After being identified as a tainted beastmaster, although Tianming's combat power was obviously stronger, deep down, he still hoped that his beasts could have freedom. Perhaps it was even more uncomfortable for them to be on him than in the lifebound space.


"I wonder if using more manna will be effective?" Tianming silently followed Lan Yun, observing her every move with his Plundering Eye, staying vigilant while continuing to communicate with Yin Chen and Li Fan. Although the communication speed was slow, time was on his side.


"Are there any ore veins in Myriadpath Valley?" he quietly asked. Through mental communication, Yin Chen would relay the words to Li Fan.


"There aren’t ordinary veins. All are ether or infinitum class," Li Fan said.


Tianming had asked because nine hundred billion of Yin Chen's bodies had been destroyed. If Myriadpath Valley had ore veins, he wouldn't have to go back to Ebonia.


"Are they easy to obtain?" he followed up. If they were all ether- and infinitum-class ore, it would be even better. Yin Chen could devour them and the effect would be even better, and the required volume wouldn't be too large.


"It's still fine. Usually only artificers buy ore to forge artifacts. If you have enough merit, you can buy them too. But... if you need a lot, it might be tough," Li Fan said.


"Merit? Is it similar to the merit points of my Swordgod Lin Clan...." Tianming had heard Li Fan mention it before. It was said that challenges, gambling, mundi missions, bounty hunting, etc., could earn one merit points. Many cultivation resources in Myriadpath Valley were linked to them, including qualifications for cultivation in certain areas.


He looked at his myriadpath ring, which only had some simple information on it. The words 'Greenhaze Mundi’ had disappeared.


The ring was also part of a supermassive formation, similar to the Lin Clan's Clan Registry Formation. He had just arrived at Myriadpath Valley, so there wasn't much information on him yet.


"Fortuna Disciple Li Tianming, Master Lan Yun, Merit: 0." That was all the information there was.


The information about merit was visible to him, but it couldn't be accessed by others. In other words, when others checked his ring, they could only see his name and who his backer was. The latter was the most important. The stronger the backer, the higher his status, and the fewer people would dare to bully him.


"I have zero merit. If I had it, I'd better exchange it for cultivation resources. As for Yin Chen, I'll find a time to return to the Infinitum Mundus and let it eat its fill." A round trip would only take a month, and 'dying' once would instantly get him there, no big deal.


Tianming noticed the ‘fortuna disciple' title. He knew there were two types of disciples in Myriadpath Valley: fortuna disciple and maniverse disciple.


Among them, fortuna disciples referred to cultivators under five hundred years old in Myriadpath Valley. Maniverse disciples, on the other hand, referred to cultivators aged five hundred to two thousand. The two only differed in age, and the status of maniverse disciple was not higher than that of the fortuna disciples. It was just for convenient classification.


For example, Li Fan was close to two thousand years old and was a maniverse disciple. He was now on his tenth cosmic chart and feeling very anxious. Once he was over two thousand years old, he would no longer be a disciple and needed to become a 'myriadpath saint.’


The standard for a myriadpath saint was to reach the Foundation stage. Mister Taihe had reached the Foundation stage and had the qualification to take in disciples in Myriadpath Valley. If Li Fan couldn't break through before reaching two thousand years old, he would be expelled from Myriadpath Valley and sent back to his hometown.


Lin Xiaodao had broken through to the Foundation stage when he was close to three thousand years old, which wasn’t enough to meet the minimum standard in Myriadpath Valley.


In fact, myriadpath saints were the mainstay of Myriadpath Valley, all of them foundationeer powerhouses. They were usually the ones who went to various mundi to perform tasks and maintain the authority of Myriadpath Valley; they were worshiped by the various rex mundi when they went to any mundus, just like Mister Taihe had been.


But reverends and eminents stood supreme among the myriadpath saints!
