The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 960: Chapter 960: Strange Encounters, Tu Lin Enters the Dream

”Every transaction you complete is clearly known by the spiritual land. Therefore, no one dares to rely on strength to forcibly take, forcing you to hand over Dreamland Coins! However, being ruthlessly fleeced during transactions is quite common.”

Fan Rongrong hid the spiritual mark on the back of her hand and said with a smile, ”It’s said that many affluent companions, to avoid being killed for treasure, simply keep only the most basic magic treasures and spiritual items on them, selling the rest to exchange for Dreamland Coins. When needed, they buy them back with money, which is much safer! Even if killed, the enemy won’t gain any real benefit.”

Tu Lin nodded thoughtfully and walked with Fan Rongrong for half a block before suddenly speaking as if he had figured out something: ”If the spiritual land manager can issue Dreamland Coins without restriction, wouldn’t it mean that just by doing this, they can collect all the manpower and resources of us in the cultivation world? After a few years when various spiritual items become scarce, while Dreamland Coins increase a hundredfold, will this currency still be as valuable as it is now?”

Upon hearing this, Fan Rongrong turned her head and looked at him with surprise.

”You’re younger than me, little Taoist, yet you can think this far!”

”You weren’t wrong about the first part. My father also told me that these mysterious spiritual land managers are likely here to plunder all resources from our Dragon Claw Realm, including our cultivators’ blood and sweat.”

”Oh... by the way! You might not know, the world we are in is named Dragon Claw Realm, a name given by people from the spiritual land. When you enter the spiritual land, you will also see cultivators from Dragon Horn, Dragon Eye, Dragon Kiss, and eight other worlds. Some of these worlds have rather peculiar cultivation methods, which are gradually becoming popular here. You’ll understand more when you experience it yourself.”

”To get back on track, although the spiritual land seems to have grand schemes, my father and mother don’t see it as a bad thing!”

”Before coming to Xinmao City, they took me from place to place, earning some spirit stones with great difficulty, while having to watch out for evil men and demon heads. After saving many spirit stones over the years, we could only afford the poorest quality Elixirs, magic artifacts, and cultivation methods! Now we have both fortune and life secured, and by earnestly earning Dreamland Coins, we can buy all sorts of high-class resources. My father only successfully opened up his Spirit Sea after coming here, relying on a Qi Movement Magic Method.”

”As for your concern that Dreamland Coins will become increasingly worthless, it doesn’t seem to be the trend at the moment. Quite the opposite, these Dreamland Coins are much more expensive now than when I was young. Back then, it took over ten coins to buy a Thunderbolt Talisman!”

”My parents both say, this currency will become more and more valuable...”

”Firstly, there is much less killing and fighting in the cultivation world, and more cultivators have invested themselves in planting spiritual medicine and mining. Many old monsters also contribute their centuries-old wealth, increasing the variety of spiritual items in the market.”

”Secondly, when we buy cultivation method manuals from the spiritual land, a large amount of Dreamland Coins are recovered by the spiritual land. Moreover, some big figures wish to enter the Immortal Realm through the spiritual land, which requires spending upwards of a billion coins. They will do everything they can to gather this fund, so even though Dreamland Coins may seem abundant, they are always in short supply!”

”...”

The young girl talked extensively, resolving most of Tu Lin’s doubts, but he still felt a bit strange inside.

”Ugh, why does such a young Taoist like you think so much?”

Fan Rongrong saw his brows furrowed, still pondering deeply, couldn’t resist tapping his head twice, and continued, ”For small figures like us, akin to floating weeds in the sea, even if we try our best, we can’t stop the tides! Just go along with the tide to a place with more sunlight and nourishment.”

”I don’t have so many thoughts. I just want to earn a lot of Dreamland Coins, gradually cultivate into a Great Cultivator, then earn more money and enter the Immortal Realm with my parents!”

”You want to take revenge on Senior Qingfeng and the others, right? Learn the Spirit Land Spell well, complete tasks and earn diligently. Then, you can buy stronger cultivation methods and more mystical magic treasures to become more powerful, and personally revenge. Or you can spend money to hire senior experts to help you eliminate Wuji Palace!”

At the mention of Qingfeng Temple, Tu Lin’s eyes immediately grew red again. He rubbed his eyes vigorously and nodded hard, saying: ”I understand! Rongrong elder sister, when we return, teach me the Spirit Land Sensing Spell. I can already mobilize mana.”

”Alright. We’ve almost finished shopping; let’s go home!”

...

The Nanke Spirit Land constructed by Shen Mo is not as mystical and powerful as the Dreamland of Dream True Master, but it lowered the entry barrier, allowing even low-class cultivators to easily master the method of entering dreams.

Half a month later.

Under Fan Rongrong’s guidance, Tu Lin successfully learned the Spirit Land Sensing Spell, his personal dream connected with Nanke Spirit Land, and his consciousness was immersed within it, manifesting a consciousness body sparkling with Mind Inspiration sparks!

Following a mysterious sensation, he ”floated” towards the deep region of the spiritual land.

Here he lost the sense of time and direction, only feeling that after a blink, the view before him suddenly opened up.

”Nanke Spirit Land is truly endlessly profound!” Tu Lin marvelled inwardly as he gazed at the nine clusters of immortal cities arranged like Flood Dragons in the vast void.

Following Fan Rongrong’s previous guidance, he flew towards Dragon Claw’s location and, after a long search, found Xinmao City and the girl who had been waiting for him.

”Rongrong elder sister!”

Tu Lin quickly flew to Fan Rongrong, came before the girl, and after looking at her in surprise for a while, genuinely praised, ”You seem to have become more beautiful, I almost didn’t recognize you!”

”If you can’t speak well, then speak less!”

Fan Rongrong glared at Tu Lin disapprovingly, then led him towards the most striking and majestic palace in the city, ”It’s your first time entering the spiritual land, you need to register your name, Realm, and location with the manager to recommend more suitable tasks for you. When the manager asks about your guide, just give my name, then I can receive Dreamland Coins as a reward from the spiritual land.”

”Apart from completing tasks issued by the spiritual land, there are many ways to make money, like sparking Mind Inspiration or selling cultivation method intelligence, which I’ve told you before, you can think about it more yourself.”

”...”

While talking, the two flew into the palace, and although the grand hall within was vast as the plains, the people coming and going still made it feel incredibly crowded.

”The place for registering identity information is here. Follow me!” Fan Rongrong led Tu Lin through the crowd, slipping into a side hall.

Inside the side hall.

A woman with picturesque eyebrows and a graceful figure was lying idly on a desk, appearing absent-minded and distracted.

”Fan Rongrong greets Senior! This little Taoist is entering the spiritual land for the first time; please trouble Senior to help him register his identity information.” Fan Rongrong brought Tu Lin to bow before the woman at the desk.
