Chapter 138: Not the Target
Upon their first visit, those wishing to enter the Four-Directional Starland must obtain proof of identification from the Four-Directional Space Station.
If it's merely for a brief rest at the interstellar plaza outside the Four-Directional Starland without entering the Four-Directional Starland itself, then no formal procedures are required.
Ding Huan, accompanied by Qixin Yue and Lao Liu, purchased a book on the introduction of the Four-Directional Starland and a book on the laws of the Four-Directional Starland as their first task.
The first rule of any place is to understand its customs and regulations.
After reading the introduction to the Four-Directional Starland, Ding Huan realized that the Four-Directional Starland he arrived at was completely different from what he had imagined.
This is not the starland he had intended to visit.
It can be said that the Four-Directional Starland has a favorable position in this universe, and its service and facilities are far superior to those of the surrounding life starlands.
Most spacecraft traveling between the stars stop at the Four-Directional Starland when they need supplies.
Unlike other starlands, the Four-Directional Starland has a star master.
From the book on the Four-Directional Starland's introduction, Ding Huan only knew that the star master of the Four-Directional Starland shared his surname, which was Ding Qi.
As for his cultivation level, he was not clear.
What was strange to Ding Huan was that he did not see any signs of respect for the star master from the person who wrote these things in this introduction.
On the contrary, the introduction of some major families and several schools within the Four-Directional Starland was detailed, with a tone that seemed more respectful.
After seeing that the Four-Directional Starland is not rich in resources and is even somewhat lacking, Ding Huan lost interest in everything else.
The main resources of the Four-Directional Starland come from other cosmic starlands, making it a completely imported starland.
Such a starland, he would definitely not settle down.
Ding Huan intends to live in the starland for a while after obtaining an identity card.
After understanding the specific situation of this universe, he will make plans.
The purple coin is not the most valuable currency in the Four-Directional Starland, where there is another currency called the crystalline element currency, and one crystalline element currency can be exchanged for ten thousand purple coins.
According to the introduction, the crystalline element currency is not from this universe but brought by an advanced civilization planet.
Ding Huan's divine consciousness swept to his starhouse and looked at the ten thousand purple coins, feeling a bit speechless in his heart.
Previously, he thought he had gained great benefits when he saw the looks around him.
It turns out that his Blue Star number was sold for just a crystalline element currency, hehe, it's really ironic.
Fortunately, crystalline element coins are rarely used, and most people use purple coins or black coins instead.
One purple coin can be exchanged for one hundred black gold coins.
Therefore, in the Four-Directional Starland, only these three currencies are circulated.
To live in the Four-Directional Starland, Ding Huan and Qixin Yue only need to pay two purple coins to get two identity cards.
As for Lao Liu, people just ignored him, and he can enter the Four-Directional Starland without paying purple coins.
This shows that the Four-Directional Starland is indeed very friendly to outsiders.
The identity proof for the Four-Directional Starland is a copper plate, engraved with the name and the time of arrival at the interstellar plaza of the Four-Directional Starland.
The process of obtaining an identity card is very simple and the price is very cheap, it can be said that it's given away for free.
Getting from the interstellar plaza to the Four-Directional Starland is not simple.
Ding Huan and Qixin Yue each spent a hundred purple coins to buy a ticket to the Four-Directional Starland, which was acceptable, but even Lao Liu needed to pay a hundred purple coins.
Lao Liu does not need to obtain an identity card, but he needs to ride a spacecraft to the Four-Directional Starland, so he has to pay one hundred purple coins.
As for the spacecraft, it really has two wings.
As Ding Huan and Qixin Yue brought Lao Liu into the spacecraft, there were already over a hundred people inside.
Ding Huan's divine consciousness can reach 20,000 meters and he can easily see the nearby places.
As Ding Huan continued to observe with his divine consciousness, he discovered a problem.
The problem he found was that the spacecraft heading to the Four-Directional Starland seemed to not be going to the same place, and no one had reminded him of this when he bought his ticket?
When the number of people on the spacecraft reached two hundred, the spacecraft launched and left the interstellar plaza towards the Four-Directional Starland.
The Four-Directional Starland has an atmosphere, and as soon as the spacecraft entered the atmosphere, Ding Huan saw the general outline of the Four-Directional Starland.
It looks somewhat like an ellipse, and by the size, it seems to be less than half the size of the Earth, making it a small planet.
The spacecraft is very fast, and it takes less than twenty minutes to stop at a square.
Ding Huan sighed in his heart that one hundred purple coins were truly easy to earn.
As soon as the spacecraft arrived, people came to greet them.
They were not asking whether they wanted to stay in a hotel, but whether they wanted to be taken around or rent a place to stay.
This made Ding Huan seem to have been transported back to an ancient Earth station, when there were many people waiting and asking the same questions.
A few vendors who wanted to intercept Ding Huan saw that he was holding a large iron pot and immediately transferred their target to someone else.
If a person always carries an iron pot with them, what do you expect to earn from them?
It's likely that the purple coins he spent on the spacecraft flight are all his savings.
Ding Huan's divine consciousness swept out, and there were almost no high-rise buildings within his range.
It also couldn't be seen what kinds of infrastructure there were, so it seemed that this was not a technological planet.
The celestial and earthly qi here wouldn't be much better than on Earth.
"Friend, are you newly arrived on the Four-Directional Starland?"
A young man approached.
Ding Huan noticed that he had failed to attract business earlier, as almost everyone else had been lured away by other vendors, which is why he came to him.
"Yes, I want to find a place that is a bit more peaceful to stay for a while."
Ding Huan didn't wait for the other person to speak first, but instead actively expressed his needs.
Upon hearing that Ding Huan was looking for a place to stay, the young man immediately perked up:
"Ha ha, that's right, if you're looking for a place to stay, you've found the right person."
The tone of the shelter exhibition also became passionate.
Ding Huan took the opportunity to inquire:
"I heard that the star master is an unparalleled expert, which allows the Four-Directional Starland to be so peaceful."
The shelter exhibition stared blankly at Ding Huan for a while before finally realizing, laughing:
"Friend, you've got it wrong. Our star master does not practice Taoism or martial arts."
"The Four-Directional Starland is managed by seven families: the Zhan family, the Left Stone family, the Yu family, the Tong family, the Fa word gate, Sidao mountain, and Xingqiao Business Association."
"It seems I misunderstood." Ding Huan enlightened.
The shelter exhibition waved his hand:
"It's normal, every new person who comes here will think like that."
"Who is the strongest then? What is their cultivation level?" Ding Huan asked carefully.
This time, the shelter exhibition lowered his voice:
"It is said that Zhan family's ancestor Zhan Changjing, a legendary Danyun realm cultivator."
Ding Huan was stunned, he had heard of practicing foundation, and the memory also has condensed into Dan and even produced a spirit soul of Yuanyi realm, but he had never heard of anything like Danyun realm.
Is this his own ignorance, or is the way of cultivation in this universe different from his own?
"What is the Danyun realm?"
Ding Huan quickly inquired.
Peng Xuan laughed and looked around before lowering his voice again:
"I'm telling you, don't ever say this outside. Although the Four-Directional Starland is a place connecting all directions in the universe, few strong cultivators come here, and everything here is extremely barren."
"Changjing, the ancestor of the Zhan family, possesses excellent talent and achieved foundation success early……"
Hearing about foundation cultivation, Ding Huan breathed a sigh of relief.
This he is familiar with, although he hasn't achieved foundation cultivation, gene cultivation is the first step to enter the Taoist path.
In other words, so far, he hasn't even crossed the first step of the Daoist path.
Without achieving foundation cultivation, his pursuit of becoming a immortal or deity is just empty talk.
Peng Xuan continued:
"After achieving foundation cultivation, Zhang Changjing couldn't continue to improve and he couldn't leave the Four-Directional Starland……"
"Wait, you said that it's impossible to leave the Four-Directional Starland? There are so many spacecraft in the interstellar plaza, aren't they coming from somewhere else?"
Ding Huan quickly interrupted Peng Xuan's words.
Peng Xuan cut in:
"You just arrived, and you're not aware of this. There are indeed many starlands around the Four-Directional Starland, but they are far inferior to the Four-Directional Starland in terms of the path of Daoism and martial arts."
These people on these starlands are incredibly savage and backward. They long to come to the Four-Directional Starland. What can you learn from these places?
To travel to more advanced civilized starlands, one must use the Four-Directional Starland as a stepping stone. Otherwise, how could the Four-Directional Starland be so prosperous? Now you understand, right?"
Ding Huan really understood.
In other words, it is very difficult or almost impossible for him to find more advanced martial arts or Taoist cultivation starlands from the Four-Directional Starland.
Even Zhao Changjing, who is so powerful in the Four-Directional Starland, can only be trapped here. He is not the only one, let alone him who just arrived.
If he were to stay and cultivate in the Four-Directional Starland, what's the difference between that and staying on Earth?
In that case, it's better to stay on Earth.
His goal is to find out where the gods and immortals in Chinese mythology are, and then follow their footsteps and become a part of them.
He cannot stay here.
"Zhan Changjing is really too talented, but he can't leave the Four-Directional Starland and his cultivation has been stuck at the foundation stage."
Once, a spacecraft from a highly advanced civilization landed on the Four-Directional Starland.
Zhan Changjing wanted these people to take him along, but he was not successful. However, after chatting with these strong cultivators for a while, Zhan Changjing gained some inspiration.
So he created a cultivation level after foundation, which is the Danyun realm."
Ding Huan was stunned, could it be done like that?
If you don't know how to cultivate after foundation, you create a new realm called the Danyun realm? Zhan Changjing really has some skills.
It's no wonder he hasn't heard of the Danyun realm, it's a makeshift stage cultivation realm.
"Friend, do you understand why Zhan family's ancestor holds the highest position now?"
Peng Xuan said with pride.
Ding Huan asked somewhat confused:
"Perhaps other families or sects also have strong cultivators who have reached the late foundation stage and are unable to break through, nor can they find any cultivation techniques."
So they want Zhan Changjing to teach them how to advance to the Danyun realm?"
"Right, that's exactly it. Creating a cultivation realm like this is not something that anyone can do."
Peng Xuan gave a thumbs-up.
Ding Huan felt a bit ominous in his heart:
"Peng brother, are spacecraft from advanced civilizations often coming here?"
Peng Xuan replied immediately:
"Impossible! Even if they occasionally come, they rarely enter the Four-Directional Starland. They can only land and rest for a while in the interstellar plaza before continuing on their journey."
When he reached this point, he sighed:
"For the savage planets around here, the Four-Directional Starland is a civilization that everyone aspires to. But for truly advanced civilizations, the Four-Directional Starland is something they don't even look at."
Of course, I have also heard a rumor that advanced civilization's spacecraft come secretly every so often. As for the truth, I don't know."
