Chapter 78 Miniverse

Long Chen was indeed confused about this part. He only knew that the Lingwu family was the biggest faction in Yuanling County, so he had come to Yuanling City and registered to enter it.

Everyone from Yuanling City knew at least a little about this, so Long Chen was the only confused one.

Knowing that Long Chen wasn’t from Yuanling City, Gan Lin made an effort to give a detailed explanation. “Everyone knows that the Lingwu family rules over Yuanling County. It oversees the entire county, and all the district cities and small towns are governed by district mayors and town mayors who are subordinates to the Lingwu family. Long Chen, the Yang family just gained the right to rule over Baiyang Town, right?”

Long Chen nodded. “Yes.”

Gan Lin continued, “Yuanling County is vast, and countless things are happening daily, such as robberies, murders, and theft. When local mayors are unable to solve these problems, they need help from the Lingwu outer families.”

Long Chen finally understood.

The Lingwu family was the official head of the county, while the outer families were its teeth and claws that helped stabilize its rule through military might.

Gan Lin looked out of the door and squinted. “We, the Turquoise family, are responsible for the peace and stability of a region within Yuanling County. In the Turquoise District of Lingwu City, there is a massive building that we refer to as the Martial Deeds Hall. The Lingwu family possesses a formidable intelligence network, and numerous missions appear in that hall practically every day. Anyone from the outer families may head there to collect missions, and when they are completed, the assignee receives a reward. Of course, the family will also directly assign missions to specific people. You Level Four disciples must complete at least one Level Four mission per month, or you will be kicked out! The same applies to the others—Level Three disciples must complete at least one Level Three mission per month!

“Some missions are mandatory and cannot be avoided, but you shouldn’t be resentful—always be aware that your efforts will be repaid. The Lingwu family has infinite resources, techniques, weapons, and spiritual herbs. Of course, they are only available to people who contribute. These things cannot be measured by divine jades like external marketplaces, so you can’t get anything here with divine jades. Everything must be earned through effort. Every time you complete a mission, someone will evaluate your contribution. The most important data point in the Lingwu family is contribution points.

“Every artifact is priced using contribution points. The more points you have, the more things you can get. The Lingwu family is rich in resources, as rich as the Dawn Trading Alliance. Getting things through the Lingwu family is much easier and cheaper than buying them with divine jades outside.”

When he heard Gan Lin, Long Chen’s eyes brightened. He was in awe of the Lingwu family’s sheer wealth and power, and at the same time, he was sure that this large family had soul-nourishing herbs too. Does this mean that if I work for the family, I’ll be able to get those herbs without having to struggle to save money myself?

Long Chen was pleasantly surprised with the contribution points reward system.

Even in the Yang family, one could receive rewards when helping the family, but there was no system and it was according to the patriarch’s whims. Other people had no power to decide. It was different in the Lingwu family. This huge system allowed anyone to take the initiative to strive for what they wanted!

Long Chen was impressed. The Lingwu family is indeed an exceptional organization. We being outsiders would naturally lack loyalty and enthusiasm, but with a system like that, won’t we all do our best to complete missions?

Then Gan Lin asked, “Do you guys understand what I just said?”

Long Chen and the others nodded. One of them asked, “Senior Gan, how will our contribution points be recorded?”

Gan Lin froze, then grinned. “Mm, how could I forget ...”

He took out a token made of white jade that radiated spiritual Qi from his Universe Pouch. The token was made of divine jade! “Every member of the Lingwu family has their own identity jade token. Do you guys see the runes on the back? They record important information like your identity, cultivation level, origin, and most importantly, your contribution points.

“That is why all you need to do is show this token when you take on missions or buy goods with points. If you quiet your heart down and place the identity jade token in your palm, touching it with your Qi will allow you to access the information within.”

When faced with such a magical object, Long Chen had to admit that he indeed was the frog at the bottom of the well like Ling Xi had said.

He was very interested in the identity jade token and asked, “May I ask when we’ll get our own identity jade tokens?”

Gan Lin smiled. “They’re already making them now and will be delivered very soon. Once you get them, you’ll all be true Lingwu family members. The average faction in Yuanling City would not dare cause conflict with you in broad daylight.”

The Lingwu family had wealth and power that ran down with a clear hierarchical system. It was basically a country!

Long Chen and the other members were on a rollercoaster of emotion.

When Gan Lin saw the looks in their eyes, he shook his head without a word. After a long pause, he finally said, “Remember these important places: the Martial Deeds Hall, where you retrieve and submit tasks, and the Treasure Pavilion, where you purchase goods. You may visit these places now to familiarize yourselves with them. The third place is the training grounds, but you’ll only be able to enter when you have reached the Human Core Realm.”

“Training grounds?”

This piqued Long Chen’s interest. He asked hurriedly, “Senior Gan, may I ask what that is?”

Long Chen’s interest in this topic proved his strong desire to grow.

Looking at the teenager with blazing eyes, Gan Lin thought to himself, He’s only at the Eighth Draconic Stage, but he has already used an intermediate Black-tier combat technique. No one in the Turquoise family has ever done that. Madam Administrator is paying him close attention and he’s very ambitious. Let’s hope he maintains that mindset for a year ... Gan Lin smiled and said, “Sure, I’ll tell you about it. The Lingwu family has its own Miniverse. The entrances to this dimension are all located in Lingwu City, and each of the nine outer families has their own entrance to the training grounds. The training grounds are called the Heavenly Martial Realm!”

When he saw their puzzled looks, he smiled bitterly. “Looks like you guys don’t know what a Miniverse is, do you? Just take your Universe Pouches for an example. The space inside doesn’t belong to our world. You can think of a Miniverse as a gigantic Universe Pouch. The Heavenly Martial Realm is almost as big as Yuanling City. All sorts of demonic beasts live inside, and their reproductive speeds are frightening. I hope you get the picture. When we aren’t executing tasks, we spend the rest of our time cultivating. But cultivation alone isn’t enough to grow our strength, so we still need to hunt demonic beasts to train! And the Heavenly Martial Realm is a heaven for training that uniquely belongs to the Lingwu family! Right, I forgot to tell you this ...”

Gan Lin looked at their excited faces and continued, “The demonic beasts in the Heavenly Martial Realm reproduce very quickly and exist in huge populations. There are even Category Nine Black-tier demonic beasts in there. Based on your cultivation levels, you all go ahead and kill as many demonic beasts in there as you can. All the demonic cores, beast souls, and carcasses you collect can be taken to the Treasure Pavilion to be sold for contribution points! For example, I killed a Category Three Black-tier demonic beast a few days ago. I then took the contribution points earned from its demonic core and beast soul and bought some elementary Black-tier spiritual medicine!”

Isn’t that basically Baiyang Town’s Desolate Mountains? thought Long Chen.

He had never heard of a Miniverse, but he understood Gan Lin’s explanation. Just as Ling Xi said, the Dragon Continent is vast. I guess if it has a few goosebumps that become Miniverses, it makes sense!

Ling Xi then said, “Eh? There’s even a Miniverse in a small city like this? Interesting! Long Chen, if you get the chance, can we go in and take a look?”

Men may never understand the curiosity of women, so Long Chen agreed quickly and asked, “Xiao Xi, have you seen many Miniverses?”

Ling Xi blinked. “Where I’m from, they’re everywhere.”

Long Chen’s self-esteem was hit, so he didn’t dare ask further.

Lingwu City was already a gigantic presence in Long Chen’s eyes, and the extent of its power was far beyond his imagination. So where in the world did Ling Xi come from?

While Long Chen was shocked by the sheer size of Ling Xi’s birthplace, Gan Lin thought he was shocked about the Heavenly Martial Realm. He patted Long Chen’s shoulder and grinned. “Don’t worry. Once you’ve entered the Human Core Realm, you’ll be able to get your new Beast Soul Origin in the Heavenly Martial Realm! If that happens, those of us under Administrator Liu will help you out.” When Beast Warriors stepped into a new major cultivation realm, they could cultivate a new beast soul that would become their Beast Soul Origin. Long Chen knew this, but he wasn’t even a Beast Warrior and had never cultivated a beast soul. Therefore, he wasn’t sure how he’d explain himself when he entered the Human Core Realm.

But now was not the time to worry about that. “Thank you so much, Senior Gan. I will work hard to reach the Human Core Realm!”

With a treasure like the Ascension Fruit in hand, he would be able to advance into the Human Core Realm as soon as he reached the Ninth Draconic Stage.

Long Chen now had two major stressors: the Blood Saints and the Lingwu family. He needed to become strong enough to deal with both! If the Heavenly Martial Realm really is, as Gan Lin said, filled with countless beasts, I will enter alone and unleash the Blood Transmutation one day. My cultivation level will definitely skyrocket if I do that! The demonic cores and beast souls can be sold for contribution points too!

The Lingwu family truly suits me after all!

That was when a man appeared outside the door.
