Since the Emerald Essence Tree used to drive the Celestial Array of Vast Heaven was also a rare material for making elixirs, I also took a green jade bottle and found a few trees that seemed to be more lush. I cut a small hole on the main branch with the power of Divine Yi and collected the precious Emerald Essence. I was worried that if I only collected the Emerald Essence from one tree, it would hurt the Emerald Essence Tree too much, so I found five trees and shared the burden.
After leaving the forest, I continued to fly north. This planet was really similar to Earth, like twins. There were mountains, rivers, animals, and plants (although I couldn't name them). Now, my greatest hope was to find a primate evolutionary creature that looked like a human. After flying for nearly 50 kilometers, my hope came because I found that there was an earthen wall like the Great Wall in front of me. There seemed to be small black dots moving on the wall and outside.
I stopped five kilometers away from the city wall. I used my Divine Yi Power to focus on my eyes. They were some human-like creatures with red hair. There seemed to be small black horns on their heads. They also had facial features, but their eyes were especially big. They were three times the size of ordinary Earthlings. Their height was similar to Earthlings. They also stood on their hind legs. However, in terms of clothing, other than a few patrolling on the city wall, the others were dressed like African natives. Their upper bodies were covered with animal skin. It was unknown whether the lower half of their bodies were made of cloth or leaves, and their limbs were almost all exposed. These people were plowing the land within a range of 100 to 200 meters outside the city wall. There were also some who were herding small animals, but they were not far from the city wall. The few people walking around the city wall were wearing something that looked like armor. They protected their upper bodies and legs, and they held close-range weapons such as knives, spears, and small round shields in their hands. There were several resting rooms on the city wall, and there were also long-range weapons, which should be large-scale stone throwers.
This scene made me feel like I had returned to ancient times. I remember a famous fantasy novel in which the male protagonist left Earth due to cultivation. However, under very coincidental circumstances, he mistakenly entered a planet that had migrated from the ancient Han and Song Dynasties of China. This gave rise to a series of stories about cultivators, immortals, and gods. Based on my current observations, this place shouldn't be the descendants of the ancient immigrants of China.
Just as I was about to walk forward to understand the first alien I came into contact with, I saw a few sword lights inside the city wall. That's right, they were flying swords used by cultivators. A few of them should be cultivators from this planet (there were small horns on their heads). They circled in the air and patrolled. After five rounds, they descended.
It seems that there are Xiuzhenists here too. Judging from the power of those few people, the level of Xiuzhenists here should be very high. They can even fly on swords. If I can sneak in later, I must be especially careful. (Later, I found out that due to the cultivation method and the environment, the self-cultivators here can ride swords as long as they have the strength of the Fasting Stage or above. There are quite a number of self-cultivators on the entire planet, about one million. Other than a few grandmaster-level sect masters who have the strength of the Leaving Aperture Stage, the rest are still in the Nascent Soul Stage or below.))
After hiding the presence of Shen Yi Power, I turned my hair red and made a small horn on my head. I also changed the Radiant God Armor into the clothes of the local people. Other than that, my eyes also made others feel that they were much bigger. I believe there should be no flaws. I suddenly thought that I don't know the local language. If I walk out like this, I'll definitely die. Thus, I used my divine sense to retrieve the memories of a patrol soldier, a farmer who was working outside, and a person who looked like an employer. I also learned how to speak the language here. Just as I had guessed, this place didn't speak Chinese. In terms of pronunciation, it was more inclined to the alphabet-based pronunciation of the United States. Whatever, as long as I could communicate, I could boldly enter the city. However, I discovered that the brains of the people on this planet are very different from those of the people on Earth. They only have one brain, unlike the people on Earth who have left, right, small, long and other obvious differences. Moreover, the capacity is not large, only about half of that of the people on Earth.
I looked at the location and teleported to a corner. Then, I picked up a hoe and carried it on my shoulder before walking towards the city. The guards at the city gate only glanced at me and didn't question me. I was happy to be quiet. As he walked in, he saw that the street below him was made of gray stones that were two feet square. There were many buildings on both sides of the street. The building materials were mainly stones. Each building was almost two-story and was made of flat stones. There were no eaves or roof tiles. It was square like a child's toy.
The average person's height was about 160 to 170 centimeters, and a few were between 170 to 175 centimeters. At a glance, there was no one above 180 centimeters. Selling vegetables, snacks, and miscellaneous trades could be seen everywhere. Some of them were chatting in groups of three or five, which was quite comfortable.
I observed that the currency used here was a round metal coin with a diameter of about three centimeters. Black was the smallest, followed by gray, yellow, and silver. I also saw a transparent coin of the same size in the hands of a person. It was called glass coin here. The ratio between them was
Glass Coin: Silver Coin: Yellow Coin: Grey Coin: Black Coin
1:10:100:1000:10000
For example, the black coin was 1 yuan, the gray coin was 10 yuan, and the glass coin was 10,000 yuan.
There were also money notes, which were in units of ten thousand, but they were rare in this market.
Generally speaking, an ordinary person could eat their fill by spending about 1 gray coin (10 yuan) for a meal. Those who saved a little could even spend 5 black coins (5 yuan). This meant that rich people could spend 30 to 50 gray coins (300 to 500) to eat at a big restaurant.
I know the importance of money, especially in a new place. Without money, it's hard to move. Of course, I could leave immediately, but that would lose my purpose for coming here to explore. Therefore, I first had to think of a way to make money. Pawnshops or silver shops should exist, but I didn't know where to go. Thus, I pulled a friendly-looking man over and asked,"Brother, sorry to bother you. I'm from another city. I don't know if there's a pawnshop or a place that sells rare items nearby.”
The middle-aged man who was stopped by me said impatiently,"There are a few shops on the left two streets ahead, but the more famous one is the Rare Treasure Hall. I don't see anything valuable on you, so don't enter that one. There are a few small shops nearby, but be careful not to be cheated.”
After thanking the man, I walked towards the street he mentioned. When he arrived at the silver building that should be called "Rare Treasure Hall"(the words were quite complicated and looked like graphic words), he walked in directly. The people here were more particular about their clothes. The clothes on their upper body and the pants on their lower body hid their limbs, unlike the people I saw before who had bare arms like me. It seemed that the concept of class here was very deep.
There were already three beautifully dressed customers looking for their favorite treasures. After I walked in, there was no service staff coming to greet me. Perhaps it was because my appearance gave people the feeling that I was a low-class person and that I didn't have the ability to buy these treasures. In this regard, I was happy to take a look at the situation first and see if there was anything good here.
The items displayed here were divided into several categories. There were jade products, silver products, copper products, pearls, and other ornaments (no gold products were seen). There were also plants such as flowers, trees, and other plants. In addition, ores also occupied a large area. The prices of the items started from silver coins, which meant that each of them was worth more than 1,000 dollars. It seemed that only the rich could own them.
After I roughly understood it, I said to one of the waiters who had nothing to do,"Boss! I want to pawn some things, please give me an estimate.”
The middle-aged man with a scar under his left eye glanced at me and said impatiently,""What can you have? Take it out." He had a haughty look on his face.
My right hand pretended to take out a 2-inch green jade from the bag tied to my waist. I saw the waiter who was originally looking at me from the corner of his eyes staring at my green jade with his already huge eyes. After a while, he swallowed his saliva and ran back. I was stunned on the spot. What was this!
