The strength displayed by Mo Tianxiao had clearly intimidated the foreign races before him. The surrounding aliens were staring at him in disbelief.
“This human is actually a Dao Master?!”
“How is that possible? I’ve been in this Void Land for several thousand years, and I’ve never seen a human cultivator reach the Dao Master Realm.”
“Could he have just ascended from a top-tier lower plane? Yes, that must be it. Only then can his appearance here to exchange currency be explained.”
Dao Master cultivators were major figures in the Void Land. How could one of them personally come to an exchange city to convert currency? With a single command, countless people would gladly do it for him.
“So what if you’re a Dao Master? You’re still just a human. I advise you to keep a low profile on our turf.”
Green Kappa stared at Mo Tianxiao, his expression returning to normal as a trace of disdain appeared in his eyes. Even if this human was a Dao Master expert, he would still meet a miserable end if he dared to act arrogantly in this place.
Mo Tianxiao could not be bothered to spare the dried-turd-like creature another glance. He walked straight to the counter.
“Can you exchange Origin Stones here?”
The Feather Spirit behind the counter was stunned. After recovering, he gave Mo Tianxiao a deep look.
“Yes, we can.”
Humans who had ascended from top-tier lower planes were extremely rare. Moreover, after hearing about what had happened with the Shamo Clan, these foreign races held ascenders from top-tier lower planes in an even more unusual regard.
“Hmph.”
The Big Kappa snorted coldly and glared viciously at Mo Tianxiao before dragging his son away.
“Dad! I want that toy! Hurry up and snatch her for me!”
“Be good, son. I’ll find you another toy.”
“No, no, no! I want that human! Yehua has a human toy, so I want one too!”
“All right, all right. Your father will think of a way to capture that girl for you.”
The father and son spoke loudly and without the slightest restraint. Tang Jin pulled Tang Shuang even closer, having already decided that once he finished handling Senior’s affairs, he would take his daughter back to the borderlands of the Southern Region and lie low for a while.
Mo Tianxiao slightly furrowed his brows as his gaze fell upon the figures of the alien father and son. He had already made up his mind.
These two dried turds absolutely could not be allowed to live!
“How many Origin Stones do you want to exchange?”
The Feather Spirit shopkeeper’s voice interrupted Mo Tianxiao’s thoughts.
Turning back, Mo Tianxiao waved one hand. His spatial ring flashed faintly, and in the next instant, a mountain of dazzling spirit stones, piled dozens of meters high, appeared inside the marketplace.
“For now, let’s exchange this much.”
“Gasp—!”
All the surrounding aliens, including the Feather Spirit shopkeeper, were stunned by the sudden appearance of such a massive quantity of spirit stones.
“H-How many spirit stones are there?”
“Holy crap! Where did this human get so many spirit stones? Did he loot an entire lower plane?!”
Tang Jin swallowed hard and whispered, “S-Senior, this is far too much. Won’t it attract...”
Tang Jin really wanted to warn Mo Tianxiao not to flaunt his wealth, but then he remembered that Senior was a Dao Master expert. There probably were not many people bold enough to rob him. Even if he encountered another Dao Master trying to rob him, Senior should at least be able to escape.
“Is this really a lot?”
Mo Tianxiao calculated that even a powerful Saint Realm cultivator could grit his teeth and produce ten thousand or so Origin Stones. As a Dao Master cultivator, possessing this much wealth should be perfectly normal, right?
After all, he had only taken out a small portion of his spirit stones. He had several spatial rings filled with spirit stones alone.
“Please wait a moment.”
The Feather Spirit shopkeeper took out something resembling a communication talisman and moved his lips, speaking a few words. Not long afterward, a graceful figure appeared inside the marketplace.
Her lively green eyes landed on Mo Tianxiao, and a trace of surprise appeared in them.
“So it’s you. I was wondering who could be so wealthy.”
The newcomer was none other than Liya, who had given Mo Tianxiao his identity token not long ago.
“Lady Liya, why have you come here personally?”
The Feather Spirit man in charge of exchanging currency hurried out from behind the counter and respectfully bowed to Liya. The surrounding aliens also hastily bent at the waist.
“Greetings, Lady Liya!”
Liya gave a slight nod in acknowledgment before turning her gaze to Mo Tianxiao.
“Here are one hundred and eighty thousand Origin Stones. If you have this many spirit stones to exchange again in the future, come directly to me. This place can’t handle such a large transaction.”
One hundred and eighty thousand Origin Stones were equivalent to one hundred and eighty billion spirit stones.
In the Void Land, a genuine ordinary supreme treasure cost only forty or fifty thousand Origin Stones. One hundred and eighty thousand Origin Stones was an astronomical sum to the cultivators here.
Even a Dao Master cultivator would need at least a thousand years of steady work to earn that much.
The fact that ten thousand Origin Stones had previously been required to purchase a single worthless inferior product was enough to show how expensive everything here was and how difficult Origin Stones were to earn.
“Thanks.”
Mo Tianxiao accepted the spatial ring and swept it with his divine sense before putting it away. More than one hundred thousand Origin Stones should be enough for the time being. Aside from the various materials needed for refining artifacts, crafting talismans, and the like, there was not much else he needed to buy.
“By the way, where is your identity token? Why can’t I sense it?”
Liya voiced the doubt in her heart. Whenever someone she had personally issued an identity token to entered a certain range, she could sense it. Yet she could not feel the presence of the token on Mo Tianxiao.
Anyone to whom she personally issued an identity token was someone she considered worthy of special attention. As a human who had ascended from a top-tier lower plane, Mo Tianxiao naturally ranked among those she was monitoring closely.
“You mean that thing? Two guards crushed it under their feet before I entered the city.”
Mo Tianxiao’s expression remained calm.
Liya was stunned upon hearing this.
“I’m sorry. I’ll discipline them properly. They’re somewhat hostile toward humans. I sincerely apologize.”
As she spoke, Liya took out another identity token. She engraved the characters “Li Yu” on it, then carved “Spirit Continent” on the back before handing it to Mo Tianxiao.
“Here, I’ll give you a new one.”
Mo Tianxiao accepted the token and studied it thoughtfully.
“The identity tokens of these two friends of mine were also broken. Give them new ones as well. I’ll pay.”
“There’s no need. It only costs one Origin Stone for each. This was my subordinate’s mistake, and I’ll make sure to reprimand them properly.”
Liya likewise gave Tang Jin and Tang Shuang each a new identity token. In her heart, she decided that it was time to thoroughly reorganize her subordinates, who had begun ignoring the rules.
She had always followed the principle of treating everyone equally. Unless someone left an exceptionally bad impression on her, she would never discriminate against or bully any race.
“Thank you! Thank you, Lady Liya!”
Tang Jin tremblingly accepted the identity token from Liya, his heart pounding wildly. This was the captain of the Void Land’s guard squad—the person in charge of this entire area, a late-stage Dao Master and an absolute big shot among big shots. Yet she had personally given him an identity token.
“You can engrave your name and origin yourselves.”
As for Tang Jin and Tang Shuang, Liya had not engraved their names and origins for them. After all, it was impossible for her to know the identities of every single person in the Void Land.
She only needed to deal with those few Dao Master Realm individuals.
“Li Yu, right? Let’s find a time to talk—about the Spirit Qi Continent.”
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever."

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
