My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 322 - 2: Immortal Realm Overview [Second Update]

Gu Qingqing opened her eyes and looked around, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Over the past two days, due to Gu Qingqing’s unusual circumstances and Li Hui’s promotion, many people had gathered around the Ascension Pool. At this moment, they were all looking at Gu Qingqing. If she hadn’t been used to being watched, she might have been startled by so many eyes suddenly on her.

She knew that the Ascension Pool was used to convert immortal power for those who had just ascended, and she also knew that the longer one stayed inside, the better it was for the body. However, not everyone could stay inside for long; the more exceptional one’s talent, the longer they could stay.

She was still unsure how long she had been in the Ascension Pool, but judging by the looks of those around her, it shouldn’t have been short.

Under the gaze of the crowd, she naturally stood up, stretched her body, then glanced at the people around her, finally focusing on Li Hui and Zhang Qiang. Seeing their attire, she guessed they were the guides mentioned in the inherited memories. After a slight pause, she walked towards them.

"Two guides, may I know where this place is? How long have I been in the Ascension Pool?" Gu Qingqing slightly cupped her hands and asked the two.

Previously, Li Hui and the others had not seen Gu Qingqing’s appearance due to the obstruction of the Immortal Qi vortex. Now that they could see her clearly, they were stunned. They never expected that the woman who had stayed in the Ascension Pool for three days and broken the Purple Sunset City’s record would be so beautiful!

The two had lived in Purple Sunset City for many years and had seen many women, but never one as unforgettable as the one before them.

Hearing Gu Qingqing’s voice snapped them out of their daze.

"This is Purple Sunset City, young lady, you stayed in the Ascension Pool for," Li Hui paused, and when Gu Qingqing looked over in confusion, he continued with some difficulty, "three days. This is unprecedented in the history of our Purple Sunset City!"

Upon hearing this, even though Gu Qingqing had guessed she might have stayed for quite a while, she hadn’t expected it to be so long. No wonder people were looking at her like they were looking at a treasure, their eyes shining.

As for Purple Sunset City, her inherited memories didn’t have much information about the cities in the Immortal Realm, more about the four Immortal Sects, so she wasn’t particularly clear about Purple Sunset City.

"Thank you both. I’ve just ascended from the Lower Realm and am not quite familiar with the Immortal Realm. Could you please introduce the cities and sects of the Immortal Realm and any other things to note?" Seeing that the two were in good spirits, Gu Qingqing slightly smiled and asked.

Li Hui and Zhang Qiang exchanged a glance. They both knew that someone like Gu Qingqing, who had stayed in the Ascension Pool for three days, would attract numerous sects and factions. Given her obviously high talent, her future achievements wouldn’t be low. Helping her now might benefit them someday, so they didn’t hold back and gave Gu Qingqing a general introduction of the Immortal Realm.

The four major Immortal Sects are: Bihai Heavenly Palace, Langya Immortal Sect, Star Sect, Moon Shadow Pavilion. The Immortal Realm consists of four states and eighteen cities, the four states are Ping’an State, Louyun State, Tianlin State, East Victory State. The eighteen cities are: Ping’an City, Luobei City, Xiyue City, Zhonglan City in Ping’an State; Louyun City, Tianqi City, Shuiyou City, Jinan City, Liuhua City in Louyun State; Tianlin City, Purple Sunset City, Lanyue City, Haiyin City in Tianlin State; Huasheng City, Yuwan City, Jinguan City, Hongyan City, Xuesheng City in East Victory State.

Additionally, the currency in the Immortal Realm consists of Immortal Pearls and Immortal Coins. Immortal Coins are quite similar to Spirit Stones and can be used as currency and assist in cultivation as they contain immortal power.

Immortal Pearls contain very little immortal power; one Immortal Coin can be exchanged for a hundred Immortal Pearls. The purchasing power of an Immortal Coin is quite sufficient. This is why Li Hui and Zhang Qiang used Immortal Coins when making bets. As guides, they only earn about a hundred Immortal Coins a month.

"Thank you both for the information. Where is the inn in Purple Sunset City?" Gu Qingqing nodded, gaining a more intuitive understanding of the Immortal Realm and Purple Sunset City from Li Hui and Zhang Qiang. Now, her first priority was to solve the accommodation problem.

"From here, walk roughly a hundred meters forward and take a left at the third house; there is an inn with reasonable prices and decent illusion realms inside." Li Hui saw that despite Gu Qingqing’s beauty, she was neither arrogant nor unkind, always polite, so he was willing to help her a bit more. "For someone like you who just ascended from the Lower Realm, you can go to the City Lord Mansion to receive fifty Immortal Coins. Just go straight from here, and you will see it."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingqing’s eyes flickered with a hint of surprise. Thinking that those ascending from the Lower Realm surely wouldn’t have any currency of Immortal Rank, this money, although not much, would certainly be helpful in times of need. For Gu Qingqing, it was nice, so she promptly thanked Li Hui and Zhang Qiang, then calmly left.

The factions’ people exchanged glances and followed Gu Qingqing, with many sending messages back to their masters to inform them of her situation.

After ascending from below and converting her Spiritual Power into immortal power, most were at the Human Immortal stage. However, due to her extended time in the Ascension Pool and the absorption of abundant immortal power, Gu Qingqing’s cultivation had already reached the Earth Immortal level, stepping beyond the novice level.

After leaving the Ascension Pool, she ignored the tails behind her and observed the surroundings as she walked.

Judging by the appearance of the streets, it wasn’t much different from the Sub-immortal Realm, mostly selling various items. Gu Qingqing had no money at the moment, so she just glanced over them.

Additionally, she discovered that not everyone’s cultivation was above the Immortal Rank in the Immortal Realm. There were those at the ninth rank and Half-step Immortal Rank. Although somewhat surprised, she merely glanced at them before continuing forward, eager to reach the City Lord Mansion, register her identity, and collect those fifty Immortal Coins.

This was the first time since apprenticing with Wen Guiyun that Gu Qingqing experienced not having money. Surprisingly, it felt quite novel. Yet, it was only for a moment, and she began contemplating ways to earn money in her mind.

Soon, she arrived at the City Lord Mansion, inquired, and found that many people were there for the money. After queuing for a while, it was her turn. After registering her identity and receiving an Identity Jade Token, she left the City Lord Mansion with the fifty Immortal Coins she had just collected.

Holding an Immortal Coin in her hand, she felt it and found it was somewhat similar to the Spirit Stones, immediately losing interest as she put the Immortal Coin away.

The urgent matter was to find a place to stay.
