Chapter 879: Young Masters
Ning’s cultivation base increased on its own and before he knew it, he had entered the Immortal realms.
Strength-wise, it didn’t make much difference for him however as his body was way stronger than what some measly Immortal realm could provide him.
The world Ning was currently in was known as the Three Jewel world. Most of its lands were covered in trees with leaves of one of 3 colors. Red, green, or yellow.
The continent with the reddest trees was called the Ruby continent, the one with shiny green leaves was called the Emerald continent, and the one with the yellow leaves was called the Amber continent.
Separating them was a vast body of water that had come to be known as the Sapphire seas.
Because the land looked like a piece of three-colored jewelry from high in the sky, it had come to be known as the Three Jewel World.
Ning was currently in the Emerald continent, which for all he understood was just normal trees with normal leaves. He didn’t give much thought to that however as he had other things to do.
There were 3 things he required to be precise.
He needed some materials to build the actual building inside the Spatial pocket, which he would be using to hide the truth of the world he wanted to pass along.
Then, he needed to gain some treasures. He needed things he could use to lure people into these locations and random treasures were the best way to go. Since he wanted to keep it going for a very long time, he wanted to do it forever.
Lastly, he understood that people wouldn’t just come here if they never trusted his reputation. So, he needed some reputation. He didn’t care if he was famous or infamous, as long as they knew his name, that would be all that he needed.
“Let’s gather up some treasures for now and see how the people in the world live right now,” Ning thought and went to the closest city.
Ning arrived in a city with massive barriers and floating lands. He was surprised for a bit but quickly lost it.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen such a place,” he said.
“You’ve seen floating cities before?” Saphandra asked.
“Yeah, the southern continent of Kumia has quite a few of them,” Ning said. “They had all types of cities really.”
Ning entered the city and walked around.
“What do we do now?” Saphandra asked.
“Well… this is a cultivation world, so the easiest way to do stuff would be to go to a restaurant, eat lavishly, and then have people follow you out of greed. Or you can go to a market and buy everything and have people follow you. Actually, going to an auction will have the same result,” Ning spoke up.
“Hell, what’s up with the cultivation world and people following you all the time?” Saphandra asked.
“Can’t help it. People like money,” Ning said. “Although the other worlds aren’t that different either, only the cultivation worlds are usually more brutal and thus force people into such tasks.”
“Is that so?” Saphandra asked. “So where are we going to go first? A restaurant? A marketplace? Or an auction house?”
“We… are going to all of those places,” Ning said.
“What? Why all?” Saphandra asked. “You want to gather all the various delinquents?”
Ning chuckled a bit. “Of course not,” he said. “What delinquent would follow a man with no money?”
“Then?” she questioned.
“We are going there because WE are going to be the delinquents,” Ning said with a bright smile. “It’s time to steal from someone.”
“Why steal?” Saphandra asked.
“In case you forgot, we are absolutely broke. I have no money at all. We need to make some money somehow, and we need to make it fast. This is the easiest way,” Ning said.
“What about asking your little system? Shouldn’t it be able to make money for us?” she asked.
“Not here, I’m afraid. Spirit stones without any Qi in them are never accepted as currency,” Ning said. “Come on, we’ll only be stealing from the rich young masters anyway.”
Ning and Saphandra made their way to a market site in the city that was flying rather than the one on the ground and Ning went around the place looking for young masters to rip off.
The first 2 he found turned out to be using money given to them by their sects, but the third one they found was a bonafide young master who was buying everything that fell under his eyes using the excess money given to him by his father.
“Goddamn, he’s even using Immortal-grade spirit stones while not being an Immortal himself. He’s just asking to be robbed,” Ning said softly.
“Follow him, he’s getting away,” Saphandra said.
“Don’t worry, I have my divine sense on him,” Ning said. With how many cultivation realms he had crossed, his divine sense was dozens of kilometers wide, easily covering both the sky and the ground.”
“He’s going to the ground,” Ning said and quickly flew down.
The young man was with guards, but they couldn’t do anything to him at all even if they were immortals.
Ning teleported over to the young man, grabbed him, and before any guards realized what had happened, he teleported away.
Ning arrived in a forest somewhere south of the city and threw the young man to the ground. The young man had yet to go through the physical transformation that came with being an Immortal, so he felt a sharp pain in his back due to how hard Ning had thrown him down.
“Wh-Who are you? Wh-where am I?” the young man shouted the moment he realized he had been taken away. He tried to pull out a teleportation talisman from his storage ring, but before he could do so Ning grabbed his hand and looked at the blue gem on it.
“Ooh, a space stone,” he thought. “It’s already being used though. Anyway, I’ll be taking this.”
