721: Human Fairyland, a Cruel World
From Bai Feng's words, Tang Jue basically gained a rough understanding of the fundamental knowledge of this world.
At the same time, he also realized how fortunate their “lower realm” was, being overly protected!
And those who couldn't “ascend” weren't hindered by the “shackles” of heaven and earth, but rather by the protection of the upper realm.
Tang Jue also understood why the Gatekeeper existed and why the Immortal Gate existed.
Those without “talent” should live happily in the lower realm; there's no need for them to come to the upper realm, where myriad races stand, and the strong prey on the weak.
Moreover, in an era where humanity is in decline and confined to one area, to put it bluntly, they don't even qualify as cannon fodder.
Because the aftermath of a powerful being's battle could obliterate you even from thousands of miles away... The members of the Cross-World Group also listened to Bai Feng's narration with Tang Jue.
At the same time, they also saw the scene outside.
“Oh my goodness! The humans in this world are too miserable!” Chen Mu exclaimed involuntarily.
“What strong pressure!” Yi Xin also said with some emotion.
“This kind of world is very cruel!” Lin Zifeng also remarked.
Clearly, Tang Jue's world couldn't help but shock the group members a little.
After all, although everyone's worlds were different, they all faced various threats, but in the end, they were basically resolved.
Relying on the Cross-World Group, almost all group members now controlled their own worlds, and they themselves, along with their worlds, were constantly climbing and developing upwards.
But Tang Jue's world, clearly... was even more terrifying!
A world of up to Level 5, where the peak combat power could reach Level 10!
“One misstep and you could be annihilated... so terrifying!” Xiao Feng sighed.
“Terrifying, absolutely terrifying!” Zhu Wenyan also joined in the excitement.
“Hey, in that case, can we go to Tang Jue's world and help out?” Allie suddenly blurted out.
“That makes sense~ But it's a group member's world, so everyone going there has some restrictions, except for you, Allie, you're special.” Yi Xin said to Allie.
“Hahaha~ It's always me!” Allie immediately chuckled and said, “Ah~ Looking at it this way, I feel so busy! So many worlds to run to~”
“Whether you're busy or not depends on you.” Yi Xin said speechlessly, “I wonder who's always running all over the world.”
“Eh heh~” Allie stuck out her tongue... Tang Jue was also multitasking, devoting some attention to the Cross-World Group chat, taking in everything they said.
After Bai Feng finished explaining to Tang Jue, he looked at Tang Jue: “How is it? Are you scared?”
“Scared? Not really.” Tang Jue shook his head slightly and said to Bai Feng, “On the contrary, I feel my blood boiling.”
“When have we cultivators ever feared a challenge!
What's more, with a mountain ahead, there's motivation!”
After learning about humanity's current predicament, Tang Jue not only felt no fear but was filled with heroic spirit.
“Hahaha~ Good! I like that mindset of yours! It seems your state of mind is excellent.” Bai Feng laughed heartily, his eyes filled with praise as he looked at Tang Jue: “Next, as for how to cultivate and how to become stronger, as a genius, you naturally have your own path to follow; there's nothing we can teach you.
However, whether it's cultivation techniques or resources, or if you have any doubts, you can ask us, and we will do everything in our power to help you. Of course, it's not just you.”
“Mm, I know.” Tang Jue nodded.
“Then I'll take you to your living quarters. Do you want to choose it yourself or should I arrange it for you?” Bai Feng asked Tang Jue.
“How so?” Tang Jue was a bit curious.
“If you choose yourself, you can select from many existing cave dwellings, residences, etc. As long as it's empty, you can move in and it becomes yours. Or, if you want to open up your own, a simple application will suffice.”
“Bai Feng, you can just arrange it for me; I don't care about this.” Tang Jue said to Bai Feng.
Where he lived wasn't important, and from the current situation, the living environment would certainly not be bad.
“Alright then, let's go, I'll take you.” Bai Feng nodded, then led Tang Jue away from this “border,” flying rapidly within the Immortal Realm.
Although humanity was hidden in a “corner” of the world, seemingly remote, their territory was not small.
Of course, the “universe” was also too vast.
The Immortal Realm stretched for millions of kilometers, with countless immortal peaks standing tall, and also “sci-fi + fantasy” super-gigantic floating cities.
Outside, there were also various large and small floating rocks, flying ships, and so on.
Bai Feng brought Tang Jue to a mountain peak outside the floating city.
There was a restriction at the peak. When Tang Jue approached, his divine sense lightly touched it.
It displayed the meaning of “ownerless.”
“Take your identity token, infuse it, and then engrave your identity information. From now on, this mountain peak will be your cave dwelling.” Bai Feng said to Tang Jue.
“Is it that convenient?” Tang Jue originally wanted to say 'whatever,' but the words changed to 'convenient' as they reached his lips.
“Of course, everything is simplified, and... people! They are all consumables.” Bai Feng sighed and said, “In this era, our human race is just consumable material. Many people die every day; there are too many people on the front lines of battle!
Including those who roam outside, acquiring resources for the Immortal Realm... and those seniors whose time is short and have no future...”
A simple sentence already contained an extremely large amount of information.
As they spoke, on an adjacent mountain peak, what was originally owned became ownerless.
“Oh, right, I don't know if there's any inheritable legacy on your mountain peak.” Bai Feng shrugged and said to Tang Jue, which sounded quite morbid.
But this was the norm!
And they were also accustomed to death; sorrow was of no use!
Everyone pressed forward, one after another, wasn't it all for humanity!
“Alright, I won't disturb you anymore. If you have any questions, you can send me a message then.” Bai Feng said to Tang Jue, then matched his identity token with Tang Jue's, which was equivalent to adding a friend.
That is, to leave the other party's “mark,” through which one could “dial” using the identity token for communication.
“Okay.” Tang Jue nodded slightly and cupped his hands to Bai Feng in thanks.
Bai Feng departed.
Leaving Tang Jue here alone, he registered this ownerless mountain peak with his identity information.
Then, after registration, the identity token glowed.
Subsequently, the mountain's restriction changed, and he could now control it.
And if anyone scanned this mountain, it would show as owned.
Tang Jue flew into this mountain peak.
Although they were flying, there was still a mountain gate at the foot of the mountain, along with steps, a platform halfway up the mountain, and buildings on the summit.
The overall structure was very complete and looked quite grand.
