Chapter 1710: Divine Cage

    

go back! Originally, I didn't care about the position in the family, but some people might think you would compete for it, fearing that you'd threaten them. Therefore, they'll force you to fight agai...Chapter 1710: Divine Shackles

This dark and bloody place didn't seem very loving, more like a haunt where ghosts would gather. The man before him was full of ghostly stories.

"I just want to leave now," Shen Xiang said. "You're a merchant, so you should be able to help me leave if the price is right."

Peng Renyi smiled, nodding. "That's correct; as long as the price is right, I can help you leave. However, I've been here for tens of ten thousand years and haven't made enough profit to leave. So, don't think about it too much. Stay here and you'll be welcomed by us; we're adding a new member to our group."

Shen Xiang was stunned; this fat man had been staying here for tens of ten thousand years and wasn't able to leave.

"I remember someone coming in before, even leaving. You're lying!" Shen Xiang said. Zhu Que had come here and left successfully.

"That… The person was indeed a bit of an expert. We were very surprised when she left, and after discussing it for several months, we believed she was just lucky. You don't have that luck or ours," Peng Renyi said. "Don't worry, everything here is similar to your world outside, just with fewer people. Also, you shouldn't misuse your magic that absorbs others' vitality here. We're a place full of love, we don't want to see people die, it would be very boring."

Shen Xiang curled his lips. "You're already bored here, how many people are there"

"There might be fifty million or so, but most of them are very powerful. Your current strength can only rank you last here," Peng Renyi smiled. "But don't worry, no one will bully you. Everyone here is friendly."

Shen Xiang was somewhat unconvinced, "If they're good people, why are they locked in this divine punishment place"

Peng Renyi shook his head and sighed, "Honestly, most of us were locked here. This place is like a prison, only a few unlucky people like you mistake their way and can't leave. We were locked up not because we're bad, but because the more evil people are worried about us ruining their good things, so they throw us in here."

"Okay, then I'll trust you for now," Shen Xiang thought this fat man was rather complicated, his strength must be very powerful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have silently targeted him for more than a year and was also quite bored, only appearing when Shen Xiang wanted to ask him for something.

"Brother Renyi, what do I need to do to leave" Although Shen Xiang still wanted to leave, though Peng Renyi said this place was full of love, the gloomy atmosphere made him not want to stay too long.

"All you need is a thousand divine coins!" Peng Renyi took out two round coins that were emitting faint silver light.

Shen Xiang carefully examined them, they appeared very smooth on the outside but had very fine grooves when seen up close. Those were extremely delicate spiritual patterns that made the coin look like it was crafted with great difficulty.

Peng Renyi flipped over the other side, there was an ancient 'sacred' word written on it. This character was taught to Shen Xiang by Long Xueyi, and the word was formed using a great number of complex spiritual patterns. The other side also had many strange, floating patterns that were also formed using spiritual patterns.

"How much effort was put into making one of these coins Is it worth all that trouble What can these coins be used for" Shen Xiang picked up one and examined it closely. These coins didn't seem like the sacred stones or celestial stones he had used before, which absorbed energy from inside to cultivate with.

"Haha, young brother, you're quite good at judging things. You could see the strengths of these divine coins with just one glance. If I gave you materials, could you make a similar coin" Peng Renyi asked with a smile.

"I can't; it's too complicated. Even if I could, I would need constant practice and a large amount of time; maybe it's possible but wouldn't be worth the materials cost. Also, I would need a lot of time to remember those spiritual patterns first," Shen Xiang frowned, thinking about the complicated processes and how it gave him a headache.

"What sort of person came up with this" Shen Xiang felt that the person who made the items must be more skilled than Jiang Sheng.

"This person was the god of wealth in sacred territory. These items were made by him, there's an old man here who used thirty thousand years to make one of these coins," Peng Renyi sighed. "And we can leave here by paying a thousand of these items to punishment gods. I only have fifty or so of these divine coins."

Shen Xiang was stunned, then he returned the divine coin in his hand to Peng Renyi. After ten thousand years, Peng Renyi could only get fifty or so of these coins, proving how precious they were. However, he still showed Shen Xiang the divine coin because he trusted him very much. And Shen Xiang also returned the divine coin, giving Peng Renyi a good impression.

"How do I get the thousand divine coins How many of these divine coins are there" Shen Xiang asked. "If there aren't many, wouldn't there be fights and killings happening all the time How is this place full of love"

"I used to feel the same when I just came here, but these divine coins have mystical powers. Whenever they're stolen, as long as you concentrate on your mind, you can return to your hands. If you die, the divine coins will disappear," Peng Renyi said.

"Amazing!" Shen Xiang exclaimed, "No wonder it's so complicated to make them!"

A senior took thirty thousand years to create one of these coins, if he could also make the other side, it would take at least thirty thousand years and sixty thousand years to create just one coin. Thinking about the complexity of these processes made Shen Xiang's head ache.

"Of course, it's crafted by the god of wealth. The god of wealth in sacred territory is very powerful! These divine coins are issued and collected by him. It's said that his apprentices are the ones responsible for crafting them, and they make quite a bit every year," Peng Renyi said. "This place is considered sacred territory, only to imprison the harmless ones from sacred territory, while the evil ones are in hell."

"I understand!" Shen Xiang looked at the nine stars in the sky and asked, "So I need to buy medicinal ingredients for the immobilizing elixir from you. What do I need to use to pay I just came in, and I don't have these divine coins."

"You can exchange items for them. You're an amazing alchemist, you can make sacred beast elixirs and celestial dragon elixirs very quickly. Although the people here are mostly from sacred territory, they're not that powerful; there are also creatures. If you work on my sacred beast elixirs, I guarantee no loss."

"There are two ingredients for the immobilizing elixir, blue jade ginseng and palm flowers. How many sacred beast elixirs do you need"

"Twenty sacred beast elixirs, twenty celestial dragon elixirs" Peng Renyi smiled. "That's quite reasonable."

"Five sacred beast elixirs, five celestial dragon elixirs," Shen Xiang curled his lips. "My ten elixirs are all eighth grade, with good quality. However, you only need to give me two eighth-grade heavenly medicines. You're already making a lot of money."

Shen Xiang didn't need sacred beast elixirs, but he didn't want to lose money and was also very annoyed at the unfairness of Peng Renyi.

"Alright!" Peng Renyi smiled, "I'm a businessman, I go for high profits. Don't mind it."

"I get it, I've encountered similar people before," Shen Xiang took out twenty sacred beast elixirs and twenty celestial dragon elixirs, these were taken from Long Xueyi.

"Let's continue our cooperation, my channels are quite wide. If you have many elixirs, I can help sell them," Peng Renyi was quite satisfied with this transaction.

Shen Xiang asked, "Is the trading method here based on item exchanges" The value of divine coins was very high compared to normal items, so the things bought with them must be quite precious. Otherwise, there would not only be exchanges involved.

"Here we have black sacred iron. Refining these repeatedly, the final product will be similar to divine silver iron that we call silver coins. We usually use these silver iron for exchanges here, and you're new here so you don't have any silver coins." Peng Renyi took out a 'silver coin' that was the same size as divine coins, these silver coins differed from divine coins because there were no spiritual patterns carved on them; only the surface was made smooth.

"These silver coins aren't easy to make either. To buy one sacred beast elixir, you need five silver coins, and each silver coin requires ten thousand pounds of black sacred iron; even experienced craftsmen need a month to create one," Peng Renyi said. "The silver coins produced can be handed over to the god of wealth, they're collected and refined into divine coins."

Shen Xiang understood, "So to get divine coins, I need these silver coins as well How many silver coins do you need for one divine coin"

"A hundred million silver coins can buy a divine coin from the god of wealth!" Peng Renyi saw that Shen Xiang was frightened and chuckled. "Are you surprised I'll tell you, the thirty divine coins in my hands are obtained this way!"

Thirty divine coins were bought by using three hundred million silver coins. Thinking about how hard it could be, Shen Xiang needed a thousand divine coins to leave here and his head started hurting. It would indeed be very difficult!

"Is black sacred iron everywhere" Shen Xiang asked, "I haven't seen it."

"That's because you didn't walk around. The place you're at now is very deserted, it was long dug out; look up and see which of the nine stars shines dimly," Peng Renyi asked.

"The first one." Shen Xiang pointed.

"Most people are on that star now, it's quite large; you'll understand when you go up there." Peng Renyi smiled. "You should familiarize yourself more before running around, there are many dangers on those disaster stars."

"These disaster stars can actually be climbed!" Shen Xiang was very surprised.

"Of course, you'll understand when you go up there. Once you're up, everything will be normal! I'm going back now and will take you there. If you want to fly up by yourself, it'll take a long time."

Peng Renyi took out a disk, stood on it with Shen Xiang and then controlled the disk to rapidly rise. In an instant, they were far from the ground.

This abandoned divine punishment place actually became a prison specifically for sacred territory prisoners. Peng Renyi said that most of the prisoners here were good, making Shen Xiang feel that sacred territory's ruling classes weren't good people.

The main purpose of this place was to produce these silver coins, then send them to sacred territory for refining into divine coins and circulation.w his eagerness, so Huang Yan Tian took out his powerful Heavenly Derivation Divine Plate. He was now curious about why Scyth rushed from the Nine Heavens World and then to the Divine Cauldron Kingdom...
