166: Chapter 166 The Proud Prodigy of the Lower Realm, Chu Tian!
Sleepless City.
Due to the nature of this city, the Cultivators who come here are diverse.
Some are being hunted and have nowhere left to run, hiding their names here; some want to gamble for an Opportunity and come here to hunt for treasure; some are tired of the slaughter and come here to live in seclusion...
Regardless of the situation, these people have invisibly become a part of Sleepless City.
Any living being can enter the city. Once inside, one must abide by the rules of Sleepless City, otherwise, the Sleepless City army lurking above the city will become your enemy.
Especially the major forces in the Divine Continent Realm, most of them also have industries in Sleepless City, because they value a treasure land within Sleepless City.
Soul Nurturing Domain.
Soul Nurturing Domain is a hidden treasure land in Sleepless City. There are countless hidden treasures in the Divine Continent Realm, but this Soul Nurturing Domain is the most special. In the Soul Nurturing Domain, there is a unique Heaven And Earth Treasure called the Soul-Sustaining Flower.
The function of the Soul-Sustaining Flower is also very singular; it can allow a Cultivator whose Divine Soul has been destroyed to sustain a new soul, which for a Cultivator, is equivalent to gaining an extra life.
If the life is gone, but the Divine Soul remains, there is still a possibility of resurrection.
And this Soul-Sustaining Flower is for when the Divine Soul is completely extinguished, to then sustain a new soul.
The most critical point is that this Soul-Sustaining Flower only exists in the Soul Nurturing Domain; it does not exist anywhere else in the Divine Continent Realm!
Especially for major forces, the function of this Soul-Sustaining Flower is even more powerful.
Therefore, they all have forces stationed in Sleepless City, all for this Soul-Sustaining Flower. Their arrival has also made Sleepless City increasingly prosperous!
As for why they don't take it for themselves?
It is a unique item; whenever someone makes a move, someone else will intercept. Whoever acts first will be the first to die. Moreover, Sleepless City is not an ordinary force. The cost of trying to seize the Soul Nurturing Domain would far outweigh the gains.
Sleepless City, a small tavern.
"Guest, do you only want wine, no side dishes?" The waiter looked at the young man in front of him. Although the other party was dressed in rags, there was no discrimination in the waiter's eyes. Years of experience in Sleepless City told him that those who judge people by their appearance usually don't end up well.
Even if the other person looks very disheveled!
The young man shook his head: "No, just a pot of wine."
The waiter turned to get the wine. The young man looked at the price list on the wall, bitterness appearing in his eyes. It wasn't that he didn't want other things, but because he simply didn't have enough money!
After the wine was brought, the young man poured himself a cup and drank it down in one gulp.
"Mining!"
"To think that I, Chu Tian, was the number one Prodigy in the Canglan Realm for ten thousand years. After my Ascension, those people didn't ask anything and just sent me to mine!"
Chu Tian drank his wine: "I Cultivated for twenty-seven years before my Ascension to the Upper Realm. My natural talent is enough to look down upon the past and present. Give me fifty years, and it will be enough for me to stand at the Peak of this world!"
"When that day comes, I will definitely repay those people a hundredfold!"
"Today, this pot of wine is my entire net worth. This Sleepless City will be the place where I, Chu Tian, take flight!"
"I want to let all of you see what a real Prodigy is!"
"In the same realm, I have never been defeated. It is only because I ascended from the Lower Realm!"
"Just wait!"
"Just wait for that day!"
Chu Tian finished the pot of wine and quickly walked towards a certain place in Sleepless City.
Sleepless City, Talent Recruitment Residence.
"A Disciple of the Ancient God Sect?"
The person in charge looked at the 'resume' handed over by the woman opposite and frowned slightly: "Are you a Direct Disciple of the Ancient God Sect?"
The woman nodded: "A Direct Disciple of the Sect Master."
"The Ancient God Sect was destroyed three years ago, but we have heard of the Cultivation Technique of the Ancient God Sect in our Sleepless City," the person in charge said.
Hearing this, the woman's expression was startled. The destruction of the Ancient God Sect was because of their Cultivation Technique. Now that this person mentioned it, could it be that they were after her Ancient God Sect's Cultivation Technique?
Before she could think too much, the person in charge stamped it directly and said: "From today on, you are a member of our Sleepless City. Whatever resources you need for the Ancient God Sect Cultivation Technique you Cultivate, just ask."
"Of course, if you encounter anyone suitable for practicing the Ancient God Sect's Cultivation Technique, you can recruit them, provided they must be members of our Sleepless City. Is that understood?" The person in charge looked at the woman and said.
The woman was a bit unaccustomed to this and asked curiously: "Don't you need me to hand over the Cultivation Technique?"
The person in charge chuckled: "It seems you have learned about our Sleepless City, but unfortunately, you didn't learn enough. Only plundered items must be handed over. You are a Direct Disciple of the Ancient God Sect, so naturally, you don't need to hand it over."
"Sleepless City recruits people regardless of their dao lineage, as long as they meet the criteria."
"Take this Jade Slip. It contains your residence and other information. When the time comes, follow the information inside to collect your resources and tasks. However, I must state beforehand: as a member of Sleepless City, you must complete one task within ten years, excluding periods of closed-door Cultivation."
"Otherwise, you will be expelled!"
The woman curiously opened the contents of the Jade Slip. When she saw the tasks inside, her eyes widened: "Patrol the Mortal World Street for one hour every day for seven consecutive days. This is a task??"
The person in charge nodded: "That's right."
"The tasks you can accept now are all the most basic ones. You just need to complete one of them within ten years."
"There is nothing else."
The woman walked aside with the Jade Slip. If she weren't in Sleepless City, she wouldn't believe that she had really arrived at Sleepless City. This was completely different from what she had imagined, and even these tasks were not as difficult as their own Sect's tasks. Just like that, she only needed to complete one within ten years?
Since when were Cultivation resources so easy to obtain?
She couldn't understand it!
"Next!" The person in charge didn't care what she thought. He had to face twenty living beings who wanted to join Sleepless City every day; he was very busy.
Outside the Talent Recruitment Residence, the line of people was already a long dragon. Looking at it, there were no less than a hundred people. This happened every day, but only a few could successfully join. This situation had been going on for a hundred years.
When this person in charge finished interviewing the twentieth person, half an hour had already passed, and then, in the eyes of the woman, the interviewer changed...
"Next."
As the new person in charge got ready, he called out.
Chu Tian walked over and sat opposite the person in charge.
"Chu Tian?"
After seeing Chu Tian's information, the person in charge asked: "From the Lower Realm, Canglan Realm?"
"I remember that the Canglan Realm is a Small World belonging to the Great Night Imperial Dynasty. You just ascended not long ago, and you already came to our Sleepless City?" The person in charge looked at Chu Tian suspiciously.
Chu Tian said directly: "In the Lower Realm, it took me twenty-seven years to ascend to the Upper Realm."
"But after I ascended, they wanted me to go mining!"
"I am a Prodigy. Since they cannot accommodate me, I must find my own way!"
As soon as Chu Tian said this, it drew the attention of everyone present.
Eyes fell upon Chu Tian one after another. At this moment, the familiar feeling of being in the spotlight made Chu Tian feel as if his former self had returned!
"Twenty-seven years?"
The corner of the person in charge's mouth twitched, and he looked at Chu Tian suspiciously, saying: "For us Cultivators, what do you think is the least important?"
Chu Tian didn't even think about it and said directly: "Of course, it's one's background!"
