Walking on the streets of this city, Long Yu and the other two felt more and more strange.
This place was different from any other place they had been to before. In addition to the strange clothing of the local practitioners, the overall style and layout of the city was also very strange. There was no city lord's mansion or trading area as they had seen before, but only a row of earthen houses.
These houses were built with a mixture of brown sand and soil, which was not at all sturdy for cultivators. Long Yu even felt that he could destroy the entire city with ease.
Logically speaking, the residence of cultivators cannot be so fragile, but this is indeed the case here, just like an ordinary person's residence.
The people living in these earthen houses are not organized as families or organizations, but seem to be organized as classes. The first few earthen houses that appeared in front of Long Yu were inhabited by local practitioners from the Heavenly Secret Realm, who were engaged in some boring physical activities, such as mixing herbs, watering cast iron, etc.
The next few houses were inhabited by practitioners from the Divine Power Secret Realm. The work they performed seemed to be easier than that of the practitioners from the Celestial Realm, but most of them were still doing hard labor.
The overall feeling was that the local practitioners in this city, or on this planet, were not completely free like those in other places, but were controlled by a certain force. Long Yu was not sure about the details, but whenever he went to ask those people, they would stay away from him, as if they did not dare to communicate with them.
This situation made Long Yu a little puzzled.
He just wants to do some business. Is it that difficult
Anyway, since you are here, you might as well take a good look around. The local customs and culture of this place seem to be a unique experience.
The human race's territory is extremely vast, and the customs and habits of each place must be different. For example, the members of the Jiuyou clan in the Jiuyou Galaxy all serve the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor, but they only want to obtain the power of the Jiuyou Dragon Emperor. They are no longer the Jiuyou tribe of the past, but only maintain some of their unique habits and customs.
Long Yu and the other two continued to move forward. No matter whether they wanted to find someone to communicate with or to trade with, the targets could not be those guys from the Secret Realm of Heaven and Man and the Secret Realm of Divine Power.
However, before they could go far, a group of people soon flew over from the sky ahead, and it seemed that they were flying directly towards Long Yu and his group. The scene seemed quite powerful, and there was even a faint sense of pressure. However, in Long Yu's opinion, this pressure and strength seemed a little childish.
It is obvious that the opponent can no longer suppress Long Yu now.
A team of about twenty local practitioners appeared in front of the three people. The leader was an old man with a white cloth wrapped on his head and his whole body was wrapped in white cloth, just like the mummy that Long Yu had known before.
Behind the old man should be his subordinates, and each of them was dressed very strangely.
Among these twenty-odd people, the old man's martial arts realm is the strongest, but it is only at the level of a superior master. However, it seems that this old man is already the most powerful person in this city.
When the old man appeared with his men, some local practitioners nearby showed expressions of great respect. It was obvious that the old man's identity was quite extraordinary.
Long Yu was relieved, because this old man was obviously one of the influential people in the city. He could just ask the old man what the situation was.
"Senior, may I ask what planet and city this is? We have come from a faraway place and want to sell some things. Is there a place like an exchange here?"
Long Yu stepped forward and asked the old man directly.
When the old man heard what Long Yu said, he raised his withered eyes wrapped in white cloth, looked at him twice, and then nodded slowly: "Follow me. This is the most barren planet in the Yuanji Galaxy. It was originally the main star of the Yuanji Galaxy and was named Yuanji Star, but it has been abandoned later..."
When he said this, the old man seemed a little helpless, but he still turned around, waved his hand, and signaled Long Yu and the other two to follow him.
Seeing that the strongest old man was only at the level of an upper-level master, Long Yu and Yue Ge Hong Ying were not very alert. They had dealt with seventh-stage great masters and beings at the quasi-god level before, so there was really nothing to be afraid of in a place like this.
They followed each other and headed towards the center of the city, listening to the old man's story, and only then did they know what this place was about.
It turns out that this place belongs to the Abyss Ridge Galaxy. The Abyss Ridge Galaxy is one of the most resource-poor areas in the human territory, and this planet is the most barren planet in the Abyss Ridge Galaxy. Including the source of the divine text not far away, it is almost exhausted.
No one knows how many years the source of the divine text has existed, and it is not far from exhaustion. Contained within it is an original-level divine text power called "The Withered and Silent Divine Text," which is a derivative power of the primordial power of the earth element.
According to legend, a long time ago, at least a thousand years ago, the Withered and Silence Divine Text had revealed its powerful edge. Some people were able to use the powerful Withered and Silence Divine Text to become powerful warriors among the human race and fight against foreign enemies.
But now, the power in the source of the Withered and Silent Divine Text can only be provided a little bit every year, allowing only three practitioners to comprehend the power of this divine text. Moreover, since the power of the source of the divine text is exhausted, it is extremely difficult to improve the level of comprehension of this Withered and Silent Divine Text.
Even if they used the Divine Scripture Crystals to carry out the transformation, since the Withered and Silence Divine Scriptures they obtained were already in an exhausted state, they could not fully comprehend the power of the Withered and Silence Divine Scriptures. At best, they could only comprehend 20% to 30% of it.
There are only thirteen cities similar to the one they are in on the Abyss Ridge Star. Apart from these thirteen cities, there are no other figures on the entire Abyss Ridge Star, because the powerful people have already left the planet and gone to other places to practice, develop, and improve themselves.
Most of the people who stayed behind did not have the ability to leave, or they stayed here voluntarily because their relatives had not left.
Soon, the old man told Long Yu that it would be impossible to sell the remains of the small world here, because no one on this planet had such things as battlefield legion merits.
However, in exchange for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the remains of these small worlds, as well as possible creations and other cultivation resources, they are willing to give out some other cultivation resources for Long Yu and the other two to choose from to see if there is anything they like.
In the entire human territory, the Abyss Ridge Galaxy is considered to be a very ancient galaxy. There are even many ancient relics remaining on the Abyss Ridge Galaxy. These relics have existed for thousands of years.
Because of this, Long Yu was quite looking forward to what the old man could come up with, so he followed the arrangements with Hong Ying and Yue Ge and went to an oasis near the city to rest.
On the entire Yuanji star, most areas are extremely barren desert terrain, but there are occasionally oases. There is an oasis near the city where Long Yu is located. Only some cultivators with noble bloodlines, or some powerful foreign cultivators, are qualified to live in that oasis.
When Long Yu and the other two followed the old man and flew hundreds of miles to the oasis in the desert, they were quite shocked, because in this oasis, there were not only lakes and green trees, but also a very sophisticated spirit gathering formation!
All the spiritual energy of heaven and earth near this oasis has been gathered into this oasis by this spirit gathering formation. No wonder other places are so barren.
Of course, even if it weren't for this spirit gathering formation, there might not be any spiritual energy of heaven and earth in other places. This spirit gathering formation only gathered the few spiritual energy of heaven and earth around in the oasis. In total, there is actually not much.
"Three of you, there is no one else living in this oasis right now, so it's a bit deserted, please don't mind."
After the old man brought the three people to this oasis, he said to Long Yu: "Now I will take people to bring some ancient cultivation resources from our city. You three can take a look. If you are willing, you can exchange some small world debris for us. I will definitely be grateful!"
"Um."
Long Yu nodded, looking forward to what the other party could bring out.
He had tasted the sweetness from the descendants of the Bone Clan. So many jade slips of endless-level top-grade martial arts could only be produced from a place with a long history. Of course, it was unlikely that there would be any endless-level martial arts on the Abyss Ridge Star, but there might be some other things from ancient times that might be useful.
Moreover, even if the things were not of much use, Long Yu also planned to give them some of the remains of the Soul Clan's small worlds. After all, this place was too barren. As a fellow human, Long Yu couldn't bear to see it, so he might as well help if he could. Anyway, to him, the remains of the Soul Clan's small worlds were not particularly precious things.
It is clear that the overall cultivation resources within the human territory are not scarce, but the Yuanji Galaxy is so barren, which is really beyond Long Yu's expectations.
The three of them stepped into the oasis. The buildings in the oasis were of higher grade than those in the previous city. They looked more comfortable, and the surrounding environment was refreshing and not so irritating.
"I don't know if it's an illusion, but why do I always feel that there is some kind of danger lurking in this place?"
After Yue Ge stepped into this oasis, he had a bad feeling. Although this place was much better than the environment in the previous city, the environment was one thing and whether it was dangerous or not was another.
The other party brought them to this deserted oasis, which did seem to be a bit strange!
"Anyway, let's wait and see. If there is any danger, we don't need to be afraid."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes. He had the Nine Nether Prison Stele on him. If any danger really occurred, he could just enter the Nine Nether Prison Stele directly. If the opponent forcibly attacked the Nine Nether Prison Stele, the entire Yuanji Star might be blown to pieces.
