Chapter 578: Chapter 323 Earth Immortal Realm_2
Various factions are fighting, vying for resources.
Ever since Li Qian entered the Earth Immortal Domain, he’s witnessed countless conflicts and battles, some even targeting him... of course, in the end, he dealt with them all.
The cultivation levels within this Earth Immortal Domain aren’t particularly high.
Becoming a Heavenly Immortal would absolutely make one a dominant figure.
As for factions with Profound Immortals, they’re considered top-tier.
However, Earth Immortal City is definitely an exception.
The number of Heavenly Immortals and Profound Immortals here is exceptionally high.
Many of them are obviously not local.
But come from the areas within the five great Immortal Sects...
After Li Qian entered Earth Immortal City and conducted a bit of inquiry, he learned why the city gathers so many people.
The Earth Immortal Realm is undeniably dangerous... but that’s within the realm itself. However, in the outer regions of the Earth Immortal Realm, there are many derivative secret realms, which, although perilous, are much safer compared to the Earth Immortal Realm itself.
Moreover, these derivative secret realms also contain a wealth of resources and opportunities.
This attracts a large number of external cultivators.
Secret realms have always been among the primary resources in the cultivation world.
Most resource-rich secret realms are controlled by the five great Immortal Sects.
Very few secret realms are left for loose cultivators... leading to endless battles over a single secret realm, with some becoming the foundation and heritage of a powerful cultivation force.
However, ultimately, secret realms have too many pursuers but too few rewards.
Many cultivation factions simply can’t control a single secret realm.
Yet, the abundance of derivative secret realms formed within the Earth Immortal Realm draws many loose cultivator forces, who flock here, braving risks to venture inside.
However, to enter these derivative secret realms, one must pay a certain amount of Immortal Spirit Crystals to Earth Immortal City.
Thus, Earth Immortal City earns a considerable amount from these secret realms.
The number of loose cultivators is so vast that even with a consistently high mortality rate, it doesn’t significantly impact Earth Immortal City.
Due to the vast expanse of the entire Tenth Heaven, the cultivation population is innumerable.
Anyway, as long as you pay a certain fee, even Void Immortals and Earth Immortals can enter these derivative secret realms.
Whether you can bring something out from these secret realms depends on your luck.
Compared to these derivative secret realms, those truly opting to enter the Earth Immortal Realm are very few.
If the mortality rate for entering the derivative secret realms is about ten percent.
Then the mortality rate of the Earth Immortal Realm is 99.9%.
If a thousand people go in, it’s fortunate if even one comes out alive.
Furthermore, entering the Earth Immortal Realm requires a minimum of Earth Immortal cultivation.
To truly make it out alive from the Earth Immortal Realm, needless to say, rising to prominence... the gains are guaranteed to be immense.
"Friend, I have maps of as many as 1,380 secret realms, and not to brag... within the entire Earth Immortal City, there are very few with more comprehensive secret realm maps than mine."
As Li Qian passed by a stall, the stall owner eagerly promoted.
He came here intending to find a map of the Earth Immortal Realm.
However, despite searching many places, including those shops, there was no map of the Earth Immortal Realm.
"Do you have a map of the Earth Immortal Realm?"
Li Qian inquired.
"A map of the Earth Immortal Realm?"
The stall owner’s whole body trembled, showing a trace of shock on his face, "Friend, with your extraordinary presence, it’s obvious you have great future prospects in cultivation... why would you wish to seek death by entering the Earth Immortal Realm?"
"Boss, it’s not good to curse people,"
Li Qian calmly replied.
"Do you really want a map of the Earth Immortal Realm? I do have one..."
After hesitating for a moment, the stall owner immediately said, "just that it’s a little expensive."
"Are you sure you have it?"
Li Qian looked the stall owner up and down, noting that his cultivation was at the Earth Immortal level, and at that, only a beginner.
"Of course I have it..... not to boast, back in the day, my ancestor braved countless hardships, coming alone from the Wanhua Immortal Sect to Earth Immortal City, and with great courage entered the Earth Immortal Realm, finally coming out alive.... only then did we secure a foothold in this vast Earth Immortal City..."
The stall owner immediately began to boast.
"Wait... stop boasting, just tell me the price directly, but if it’s fake, hehe..."
Li Qian waved his hand and said.
"Friend, we’re doing business, how could we possibly deal in fakes? However... since it’s something left by my ancestor, I can’t guarantee its accuracy."
The stall owner quickly said.
"I’m curious, your ancestor was able to enter the Earth Immortal Realm, which means he was at least a Heavenly Immortal and managed to return alive, so he must have been quite powerful, but you, the boss..."
Li Qian suddenly asked.
The stall owner awkwardly smiled and said, "We can only blame us descendants for being incapable, which is why we’ve fallen to the point of running a stall... Friend, if you’re sure you want it, it’s at least this much..."
He shifted his tone and held out five fingers.
"Five Immortal Spirit Crystals?"
Li Qian slightly furrowed his brows.
"Friend, it is expensive, but this is a map of the Earth Immortal Realm..."
The stall owner quickly said.
In Earth Immortal City, Immortal Spirit Crystals are the hard currency of course.
However, many things aren’t worth even a single Immortal Spirit Crystal, so for the most part, it’s Spirit Stones and the special Immortal Spirit Tickets issued by Earth Immortal City that are used.
This Immortal Spirit Ticket is rather special, marking one Immortal Spirit Crystal as one hundred Immortal Spirit Tickets.
The denominations of these Immortal Spirit Tickets range from one point, to five, ten, twenty, fifty, to a hundred... with a maximum of a thousand Immortal Spirit Tickets.
The credibility of Immortal Spirit Tickets is quite good.
So, Immortal Spirit Tickets are very circulated within Earth Immortal City and the entire Earth Immortal Domain.
Of course, they are limited to within the Earth Immortal Domain.
As for the other five great Immortal Sects’ regions, Immortal Spirit Tickets are useless.
"Deal."
Li Qian waved his hand, directly tossing out five Immortal Spirit Crystals.
The stall owner did not expect Li Qian to be so straightforward and wondered if he should have asked for more.
Nonetheless, he quickly took out a Jade Scroll from his storage device and handed it to Li Qian, then gleefully pocketed the five Immortal Spirit Crystals with great satisfaction.
Because these were five Immortal Spirit Crystals, not five hundred Immortal Spirit Tickets.
If it were five hundred points of Immortal Spirit Tickets, there would have been a conversion fee to change them into Immortal Spirit Crystals in Earth Immortal City.
As Li Qian held the Jade Scroll, a sweep of his Immortal Sense immediately detected the information within.
It was indeed a map.
Though this map appeared somewhat cluttered and disorganized, with markings that seemed rather haphazard, clearly not produced by a professional.
This stall owner’s ancestor only recorded the areas he visited within the Earth Immortal Realm.
Was it useful to Li Qian?
It was somewhat useful.
Because this map also recorded several particularly unusual sites, all marked by anomalies...
The descriptions of these anomaly zones were quite detailed, as recorded by the stall owner’s ancestor.
"These places with anomalies either have powerful presences, or have Innate Spiritual Objects growing, or contain special treasures..."
Li Qian pondered to himself.
He didn’t plan to enter the Earth Immortal Realm right away.
After all, the risks are substantial.
Proper preparations are a must.
He will likely seek a more comprehensive map.
Just as Li Qian was about to leave, a voice suddenly came from behind, "Fellow Daoist, if you wish, I have a more complete map of the Earth Immortal Realm that will surely be beneficial to you."
A middle-aged man in a purple robe spoke.
Li Qian turned around and saw a man who, judging by his aura, was at least of Heavenly Immortal Cultivation.
"I wonder, what business do you have with me, my friend?"
He did not reply.
"Friend, I see that you are very capable, so allow me to be direct. I do have a more complete map of the Earth Immortal Realm here," the middle-aged man in the purple robe added.
"It’s not that I don’t want to give it to you, friend, but if you really want a more detailed map, let me pay you a substantial amount of Immortal Spirit Crystals."
The middle-aged man in the purple robe shook his head and said, "If friend doesn’t mind, I suggest we strike a deal; let’s find a place to talk in detail."
With his superior skills, Li Qian, though currently only equivalent to a top-level Heavenly Immortal in cultivation, contained the Frosty Law World Tree, equivalent to the realm of the Primordial Daoist Master, and combined with the Chen Bell Grotto, he was fearless.
"Okay."
He nodded, curious to see what the man really wanted.
Indeed, if there was a more detailed map of the Earth Immortal Realm, it would be worthwhile to engage further.
"Friend, I suggest you come with me,"
The middle-aged man in the purple robe exclaimed joyfully, speaking at once.
And so, Li Qian followed the middle-aged man in the purple robe away from the bustling scene.
