Chapter 2568 - Registration
As she approaches the sight, it’s as if she’s crossed a boundary barrier and become cut off from the sea. She climbed the stairs without much thought. As she progressed up the stairs, they became fainter and fainter behind her until they vanished completely. It was the same with the sight, which faded gradually until it vanished into thin air as if it had never existed.
She followed the path all the way to the end, arriving just outside of a city. Her eyes widened slightly in surprise as she gazed at the massive gate and its eight guards.
Could this be the Peng Lai Immortal Island? The eight guards at the gate were all Immortal Sacred cultivators, making her feel unfathomable.
Why did Strong Exponents at the Immortal Sacred rank merely become gatekeepers?
She suppressed her surprise and made her way forward slowly, but she was stopped at the gate.
“Register your information and submit any of the materials listed above as the pass fee.” A guard pointed to the inscription on the wall.
Feng Jiu looked over it; it stated that anyone entering the city must register and obtain a gate pass token. To obtain the gate pass token, one had to hand over a fourth-rank or higher medicinal pill or magical artifact as a
fee.
“Why not use gold coins instead of requiring those items?” She inquired, her gaze cast doubtfully on the guard.
“Gold coins? We do not accept gold coins here.” The guard responded. He inquired about Feng Jiu’s information as he took out a thick book to register her name.
“What’s your name?”
“Feng Jiu,” she said after taking a look at the registration book.
She noticed that the book mostly contained registered names, with the rest being blank. After the guard finished registering her, he instructed her to place a drop of her blood on the gate pass token, which he then handed to her.
“Alright, you can go in!” The guard said. He motioned for Feng Jiu to enter without even looking at her.
Feng Jiu took the pass and looked at it as she walked into the city. She discovered that there were still boundary barriers and arrays inside the city after entering it. She also became aware that there were some world rules that put pressure below, causing her to feel uneasy once she entered.
However, much to her surprise, it was different from other places. The cultivators were bartering goods on the ground.
Perhaps because few people came here, her appearance drew the attention of many people in the city. Their perplexing stares made her feel strange; as if she were a monkey being watched by a crowd.
“Look, it’s a young man. He appears to be quite handsome.” An Immortal Sacred Peak who sat on the ground said to the person next to him.
“Mm, judging by his bone age, he is still quite young. It’s surprising that he’s able to come here.” An old man next to him followed suit to talk.
“It’s unclear how he got here.”
“Those who can come here are not ordinary people.” Another person said, raising his hand and shouting to Feng Jiu, who was dressed in dazzling red. “Young friend, I have a lot of good things in this stall. Do you want to come and take a look?”
Hearing his call, Feng Jiu turned her gaze over there…
