Chapter 999 Entering the Chaotic Land
Chapter 999: Entering the Chaotic Land Having experienced entering the Immortal Realm penniless, Xie Yi had considered the problem of not having money since arriving in the God Realm.
He had considered selling the better treasures in his storage ring to exchange for divine stones, but he had heard Xiao Han say that those things wouldn't fetch many divine stones and were worthless.
Since that's the case, and Xiao Han just happened to have made a large sum of money, Xie Yi decided to simply borrow money from her. Once he became more familiar with the God Realm, he would naturally find a way to make money.
Xiao Han laughed, "You've gotten so used to being a tycoon in the Great Yun Dynasty, huh? You're asking for tenfold returns so easily. Alright, then I'll be a loan shark for once. How much do you want?"
Given their relationship, it's fine whether they don't repay the money or repay ten times the amount.
After all, if Xie Yi could really repay ten times the money, he would already be able to easily earn millions.
Xie Yi thought for a moment, "Give me ten thousand, that should be enough for now."
Xiao Han took out the divine stone and gave it to him.
Then he asked, "Would you like to rent a cave dwelling here?"
Xie Yi felt this place was too remote and shook his head, saying, "I want to look around first."
Xiao Han didn't try to stop her, but simply reminded her, "Then be careful of the Heavenly Fiend Wind tonight. Oh, and go buy a communication magic item first, so we can stay in touch more easily later."
Xie Yi not only wanted to buy a communication magic item, but also a map of the divine realm.
The two then went to Xu Xingwan's general store.
The more expensive the communication device, the better its transmission effect.
Xie Yi directly chose the most expensive one in the shop and spent five hundred divine stones.
Xiao Han could only say that this was simply a difference in consumption concepts leading to different choices.
Xie Yi is the kind of person who likes to give himself the best enjoyment whenever he has the means.
Xiao Han, on the other hand, has the mindset of the poor who need to save more money and prefers to make do when buying things.
She also bought a map jade slip while she was at it. After all, this kind of thing is a necessity.
It was still morning when Xie Yi bid farewell to Xiao Han, thus beginning his journey through the realm of gods.
Xiao Han had only rented a cave dwelling for a year, and she still had a copy of the talisman jade slips she had bought that she hadn't yet comprehended. She wasn't in a hurry to venture into the God Realm.
After parting ways with Xie Yi, he returned to his cave dwelling.
She didn't want to wander blindly. Although making money here was difficult, the cost of living was also very low. She wanted to stay longer and learn more about the divine realm before choosing her future path.
Back in the Second Heaven, Zhou Zhe felt increasingly uneasy. Could it be that the female cultivator who had given him the task had done something significant in the mortal realm that had attracted the attention of the gods?
After thinking it over, he felt he would only feel at ease if he asked in person.
Xiao Han was hiding in the Linglong Immortal Abode, comprehending the Dao of Talismans and learning some special talisman drawing techniques.
Suddenly sensing that the cave's restrictions had been activated, she put away the exquisite fairy abode in confusion and then opened the cave's door.
Xiao Han was taken aback when she saw Zhou Zhe standing outside the cave. How did this person find her place?
Suppressing her surprise, she bowed to Zhou Zhe.
"Greetings, Senior Zhou!"
The cave dwellings here are actually part of the Divine Palace's property. It's easy for Zhou Zhe, a Divine Lord-level official, to inquire about the tenants.
He looked at Xiao Han and said, "Can you tell me what you did as the Earth God in the mortal realm?"
Xiao Han was puzzled. She couldn't discern any emotion from the other person's expression, nor did she know the true purpose of their question. She could only cautiously reply, "It's just what a local deity should do. If there's a drought, I'll bring some rain; if there's a flood, I'll move the rain clouds. And then I'll satisfy the trivial needs of mortals."
Zhou Zhe finally frowned and said, "That's all? You didn't do anything else?"
Xiao Han thought about how she impersonated the system and supported Zhao Qinghe to become queen. Could it be that gods cannot interfere in the affairs of mortal emperors?
The transaction was over, but High Priest Zhou came to inquire. The only outrageous thing she could think of was to support Zhao Qinghe.
However, at this moment, Xiao Han dared not reveal that she had overstepped her bounds.
She immediately looked puzzled and said, "I'm restricted to a radius of 100 miles by the mission jade token. Apart from the things that the local earth god can handle, there's nothing else I can do."
He feigned resentment and said, "I can't just slaughter the mortals in my own territory for no reason."
Zhou Zhe deliberately released some of the pressure of a Divine Lord realm expert, and said sternly, "Are you sure you're not lying?"
Xiao Han was flustered, but pretended to be angry and said, "I can swear that I have fulfilled my duties as the Earth God very seriously."
She could swear on that.
Seeing that she had even sworn an oath, while he himself didn't even know the true purpose of the God's summons, Zhou Zhe could only leave with a heart full of doubts.
After the priest Zhou left, Xiao Han returned to his cave and began to ponder.
The other party wouldn't come asking questions without a reason. The only thing she could think of was that interfering with the emperor of a mortal kingdom might be against the rules.
After all, the consequences of a monarch's actions are too great. Perhaps his intervention changed the course of history, and thus he overstepped his bounds.
Xiao Han became increasingly frightened as she thought about it, so she decided to run away.
However, she needs to use her identity token to rent a house, and as a Divine Lord cultivator in the Divine Palace, it would be very easy for Zhou, the Divine Official, to find out her whereabouts.
So, she couldn't escape at all?
No, she must go to a place where the cultivators of the divine palace cannot easily find her and hide for a while. After a long time, when the aftereffects of this incident have passed, the priest Zhou may no longer be looking for her everywhere.
After figuring it out, Xiao Han studied the map of the divine realm in the room for a while before putting away the exquisite immortal abode and preparing to escape.
The thought that she had only rented the cave dwelling for a year and actually lived in it for only one day was about to be lost again made Xiao Han feel that the cave dwelling on Flying Ascension Island was not meant for her.
The first time she rented a cave dwelling, she stayed for at least three days, but this time she only stayed for one day.
Forget about getting a refund; besides, she didn't dare let the cultivators at the cave rental office know she had run away.
Standing amidst the vast sea of clouds, Xiao Han determined her location and decided to temporarily reside in the chaotic land for a few years.
Although the chaotic area outside the Western Heavenly Gate is inhabited by humans, demons, and monsters, I will only live in the area closest to the Western Heavenly Gate for a few years and will not wander around, so I should be fine.
Following the guidance of the map jade slip, I found a floating island that could teleport me to the vicinity of the Western Heavenly Gate.
After using the teleportation array to reach the floating island near the Western Heavenly Gate, and flying for about an hour, Xiao Han finally saw the tall gate tower of the Western Heavenly Gate.
Upon seeing the four gatekeepers, who were fully armored and exuded an aura of celestial warriors, Xiao Han slowly flew over.
Besides the four armored cultivators at the main gate, there was also a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary cultivator robes sitting behind a table.
Upon seeing Xiao Han, he proactively asked, "Are you going out? Show me your identity token."
Xiao Han took out her identity jade token and handed it to the other party. The middle-aged cultivator glanced at it and asked, "What are you going out for?"
Xiao Han smiled ingratiatingly and said, "I want to go out and gain some experience."
The middle-aged cultivator registered her, then didn't ask any further questions and waved her out.
As Xiao Han walked out of the Western Heavenly Gate, a sense of unease suddenly rose in her heart.
The area outside the Western Heavenly Gate is known as the Land of Chaos. Can a mere True God Realm cultivator like myself really stay here safely for several years?
