Xiao Jie was dazzled by what he saw.
This place truly deserved its na "Creation of All Things," as it could manifest anything—even a multitude of "maids and servants" for sale.
These "goods" were all exceptionally beautiful: there were sexy female immortals in sheer dresses with alluring curves, young naive-looking girls in flowing white garnts, intellectual female secretaries wearing glasses and office suits... even virtual idols of ani style, with cartoonish figures, ample bosoms, slender waists, vividly lifelike.
Although they were labeled as "maids and servants," it was quite obvious what one might actually want to do after buying them.
Xiao Jie glanced briefly, found it rather interesting, yet had no intention of making a purchase.
While these things could be enjoyable, they were useless for enhancing strength.
He only had a few spirit stones on hand, and he intended to reserve them for nurturing growth.
He had no plans to lie down and take it easy in this world—he was still thinking about defeating the Demon Lord, saving the world, and then returning to his own Earth.
The Heavenly Venerate seed to notice his lack of interest and smiled thoughtfully, "Not interested in these, huh?"
"Is there a place that sells equipnt?"
The Heavenly Venerate nodded, "Of course, there is. But with the spirit stones I have... I likely can’t afford much."
He weighed his money bag in his hand and said helplessly.
"Just take to have a look," Xiao Jie replied casually, thinking that even if he couldn’t buy, having an idea of the prices would give him a target to strive for when saving up for better equipnt.
The Heavenly Venerate didn’t waste words and led Xiao Jie out of the Wanxiang Pavilion, flying toward the tallest building in the comrcial district.
It was an entirely pitch-black tower, soaring straight into the skies, the tip obscured by clouds.
Nurous immortals ca and went, most flew up high, as they drew near, all of a sudden there was the sound of whistling wind in the sky!
Xiao Jie instinctively lowered his body and looked up, in the next second, dozens of figures descended swiftly like teors onto the top platform of the tower.
These people were no ordinary individuals—the leader was even a Level 78 Heavenly Immortal! The others were all above seventy-level experts, even the weakest ones were at Earth Immortal Level.
Just from appearances, one could see so clues; each of these immortals had a formidable presence, the spiritual light of divine artifacts and immortal artifacts dazzlingly intermingling on them. So wore Dragon Scale Armor, wielding an Eight-foot Long Halberd, emanating an aura akin to a Primordial Fierce Beast.
So carried seven immortal swords on their back, their sword intent soaring to the skies, their gaze sharp as lightning.
Others were surrounded by illusions of stars, as if bringing along a piece of starry sky.
"That is the main force of the Iron Blood Immortal Alliance," the Heavenly Venerate whispered, "They are truly hardcore, treating the Great Thousand Worlds entirely as a ga. For them, the ga is about defeating monsters, upgrading, enhancing equipnt; everything else is aningless.
So unlike other immortal alliances that move every three to five days, or ten days and eight days, this Iron Blood Immortal Alliance goes out every day to grind and upgrade, without any rest."
"Judging by their appearance, they probably found so good stuff and ca here to exchange and enhance equipnt again."
Xiao Jie’s eyes lit up at this.
Thinking: This kind of organization really has potential! Compared to them, the Mountain and Sea Alliance which has an activity every ten days, although not entirely lying idle, it’s pretty close.
The two approached the tower, entered through the main entrance.
The interior here was much more serious compared to the previous "Wanxiang Pavilion" —it had a circular structure with categorized sections. The lower level sold various rare materials—Dragon Scale Phoenix Feather, Star Sand, Chaos Stone... Xiao Jie saw the piece of Fire Separation Mysterious Gold Ma Yuan had given him; surprisingly it was sold here in groups, twenty taels a set, priced at 3800 spirit stones.
The middle level sold magic treasure equipnt, divine artifacts and immortal artifacts in dazzling arrays, top-tier magic treasures, every price ranging from thousands to tens of thousands, the attributes and power astonishing, making Xiao Jie drool. Xiao Jie discreetly compared and assessed the few magic treasures he had; the Ten Thousand Souls Banner might be worth 6000-8000 spirit stones, the Yin Yang Soul Suppressing Mirror would struggle to fetch 4000, and the Light Fixing Pearl might go for around 3000.
It seed, he did have so assets, at least as a newbie, he definitely had a robust backing.
The top level contained Immortal Technique Dao Scriptures, Jade Scroll Golden Books piled mountain high, these secret books were mostly extracted from various Immortal Cave Mansions and Divine Spirit Dojos, now turned into instance secret realms.
Though uncertain what exactly was written, just from the skill descriptions, it was evident they were extraordinary.
Thinking about those powerful immortals who had cultivated various formidable immortal techniques, equipped divine artifacts and immortal artifacts, a sense of urgency surged within Xiao Jie.
This feeling was akin to that of a ga player, just like a newcor entering an old ga, right out of the newbie village doing a five-player quest, only to discover others had already reached full level and started doing top-tier team quests.
Being left behind like that truly irked him.
Seed like if he wanted to keep up with the progress of the first tier in this ga, next, he must crazily level up.
Just then—
"This Daoist friend, are you interested in joining the Heaven Repair Alliance to save the world together?" a crisp voice suddenly sounded by his side.
Hmm?
Xiao Jie was taken aback for a mont.
Heavenly Repair Alliance? This made him think of the Heaven Repair Alliance of the Jiuzhou World.
He looked up to see a fairy in green standing before him, handing over a flyer.
The flyer displayed an elderly man with an immortal deanor and floating beard. His eyes were sharp, looking straight at Xiao Jie, finger pointing at Xiao Jie’s face, below were large characters:
Heavenly Repair Alliance needs you!
It must have been done using so kind of immortal law, as the old man’s gaze was intent, and no matter how Xiao Jie adjusted the flyer in his hand, that gaze remained fixed on him.
"Our Heaven Repair Alliance has gathered many ambitious individuals, determined to save this world together!" The green-dressed fairy said enthusiastically, "Daoist friend, you must be new, right? Why not join us!"
"Sorry, I already belong to another Immortal Alliance."
"No problem!" the fairy smiled, "Our Heaven Repair Alliance is a united organization, it doesn’t require you to leave your own Immortal Alliance, as long as you share our world-saving ethos, you can join. Why don’t you take this and have a look, understand more about our philosophy."
She stuffed the flyer into Xiao Jie’s hand, "By the way, this noon, we’re holding a ’World-Saving Philosophy Seminar’ at the Central Square. Hope you can co and have a look, to further understand us."
After speaking, she smiled charmingly and turned away to hand another flyer.
Watching the fairy’s departing figure, Xiao Jie was sowhat stunned, "What’s exactly is this Heaven Repair Alliance?" he wondered.
"To put it simply, it’s a bunch of people with chuunibyou," the Heavenly Venerate snorted, "They talk about saving the world, even having sothing called the ’Heaven Repair Plan’."
"You don’t really plan to join, do you? Let tell you, don’t! That group organized several large activities before, each resulted in heavy casualties. Last ti, they tried to reclaim the Divine Court, summon the dormant Heavenly Court army, they didn’t even make it past the South Heavenly Gate, got slaughtered by the four gatekeeper Bosses, nearly wiped out.
They didn’t even pick up their corpses; while they could be resurrected, they lost quite a few equipnt and magic treasures.
Mixing with them is completely a loss-making deal."
Listening to the Heavenly Venerate say this, Xiao Jie beca intrigued instead.
This journey showed him most immortals didn’t look impressive—either lying flat, becoming beggars, or indulging in pleasures.
The better ones rely treated it as a ga to grind grind grind, and seed to have no plans for saving the world or defeating the Demon Lord.
It’s evident, this world indeed feels quite despairing. Despite so many immortals gathered together, surprisingly, the majority seems to lie flat, even resigning to fate.
He didn’t want to end up in such a state.
Xiao Jie put away the flyer, looked at the spirited elderly man on it, and muttered to himself, "After all, it’s just idle ti; it won’t hurt to go check it out."
"You really want to go?" The Heavenly Venerate was resigned, "Fine fine, if you really want to go see, I’ll accompany you. But let’s be clear—if they make you sign any contracts or pay dues, don’t promise anything!"
"Relax, I know what to do, besides, even if I wanted to pay, I’d need spirit stones."
Xiao Jie said while gazing toward the direction of the Central Square.
Heavenly Repair Alliance... let’s see if this group of ’chuunibyou’ truly has ideals, or if they’re just a bunch of hopeless fools.
