I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1464 - Chapter 1464 Chapter 1466 Star Hall

Chapter 1464: Chapter 1466: Star Hall Chapter 1464: Chapter 1466: Star Hall The Starry Sky Ten Thousand Races Secret Realm is a realm produced by extracting the brightest history of the Human Race from the River of Time and Space over a span of millions of years.

It could be said that everything experienced within this secret realm is not real, even if it changes, it hardly affects anything, at most affecting the secret realm during this period. When the journey through the secret realm ends, and it opens again, another cycle will begin.

Therefore, in the secret realm, only things that your mind can remember, considered knowledge gains, can be taken out. Otherwise, no matter what treasures you obtain, you cannot take them out of the secret realm.

However, if you have some secondary professions, like disassembling on site to enhance skills such as forging, pharmacology, and alchemy, that’s still possible, as this too falls under knowledge gains. But specific physical items are impossible to take out.

So when Song Jian heard Xin Ling say that items exchanged with merit points in the Starry Sky Battlefield could be taken out of the secret realm, he was extremely shocked. How could this be possible? Even a divine-level powerhouse couldn’t snatch items from millions of years ago from the River of Time and Space, let alone them, a group of mere third-order combatants.

“Even the powerful being that created this secret realm couldn’t do that, right?” Song Jian said with a face full of surprise.

“Hehe, of course, everything experienced here is illusory, but this Starry Sky Battlefield is where illusion and reality intersect. The items exchanged there are treasures from the sect. However, everything we encounter on the Starry Sky Battlefield is part of the history from millions of years ago, just like with the Dragon Palace Treasure…” Xin Ling whispered.

“Is this like playing a game, achieving a goal, and then getting a reward in reality?” Song Jian instantly understood. Indeed, the Starry Sky Battlefield was the true trial ground of the Imperial Sword Sect, where fights with the Starry Sky All Races accumulated combat experience, enhancing the disciples’ real combat abilities. The gains were the merit points earned from killing enemies and used for exchange, but the items for exchange still came from the Imperial Sword Sect. The reason they allowed the participants to exchange them in the trial was just to make it all the more realistic.

Song Jian nodded. Now that he had planted a large amount of Snake Vine Grass, the Contribution Points he received from the sect had significantly decreased, but they were still beyond what ordinary disciples had.

Song Jian had visited the Treasure Pavilion of the Imperial Sword Sect several times, and most of the treasures could not pique his interest. After all, he had already obtained the Chaos Sword Canon, the most precious treasure of the Imperial Sword Sect, and other treasures were mere external aids.

Therefore, Song Jian would at most exchange for some Purple Crystals, which he used to upgrade his level on a regular basis; he didn’t exchange for other treasures.

As soon as he heard that the treasures were provided by the Imperial Sword Sect, Song Jian immediately lost interest.

“Senior brother, those treasures are quite plentiful, and some aren’t available in the Treasure Pavilion.” Seeing Song Jian’s indifferent expression, Xin Ling took out a fist-sized semi-transparent orb from her bosom.

This orb emitted a faint light, its surface smooth like jade. Vaguely visible inside the orb was a blurry figure, curled up and falling into deep slumber.

“This is a combat elf, exchangeable for five thousand merit points. After it’s hatched, you can summon a Lightwing Elf to assist in battle, and it doesn’t occupy any Pet Space positions!” Xin Ling said.

“Epic Quality?” Song Jian’s eyebrows lifted. This yet-to-be-hatched combat elf was actually an artifact of epic quality.

“Of course, and battle elves can also level up. A Light Elf initially has only one skill, Holy Light Healing, but as it levels up, it can comprehend more skills. Keeping it by your side is like having a personal priest. How about that, not bad, huh? I saved up more than half a year’s worth of contribution points just to exchange for it,” Xin Ling said with a happy demeanor.

“Battle elves, huh? I haven’t seen them in the treasure pavilion…” Song Jian shook his head.

“Not just battle elves, there are also arcane elves that can provide mana and increase mana recovery speed, as well as flame elves, wood elves, etcetera, each with its own use. It’s not just elves; there are many other things that the treasure pavilion doesn’t have. Right, there are also Sword Immortal armor pieces here. Senior brother, aren’t you collecting the Sword Immortal set? There are three scattered pieces here!” Xin Ling said.

“What, Sword Immortal set?” Song Jian’s body shook. He had been collecting the Sword Immortal set since he was above level thirty. So far, he had only gathered three pieces: the gloves, the belt, and the helmet. If there really were three more pieces here, he would have collected most of the set. With a six-piece set, he could activate two set properties.

“Then I have to take a look!” Saying so, Song Jian strode towards the Star Hall of Xuan Tian Sect.

“Stop, senior brother, you definitely don’t have enough contribution points now. The Star Guards won’t let you in. Only when your contribution points reach a thousand and you pay the fee can you enter the Star Hall,” Xin Ling hurriedly pulled Song Jian back and pointed at a towering high-rise within Xuan Tian Sect.

Song Jian looked up to see that the building was at least a hundred floors high, over three hundred meters tall. The top of the high-rise twinkled with stars, and brilliant stars slowly revolved around the building as if guarding it.

But Song Jian could sense that the space between the stars was filled with the power of magic formations. If the high-rise suffered any harm, those twinkling stars would instantly turn into lethal weapons.

“Just like the Ten Thousand Dragons Array, a divine-level formation!” Song Jian was mentally shaken and dared not probe with his senses any further. An inadvertent trigger of the formation could emit an attack rivaling a divine-level powerhouse. He feared his soul would scatter, without even a chance to retreat into the Shattered Divine Realm.

At the entrance of the high-rise stood several guards clad in starry armor and wielding battle halberds. From the fluctuations of their auras, one could sense that these guards all possessed the strength of peaks in the Legendary Realm.

“Legendary Realm peak powerhouses as gatekeepers, Xuan Tian Sect is indeed terrifyingly powerful!” Song Jian couldn’t help but exclaim. In the game world, Legendary Realm monsters are also known as King Level BOSSes, ruling territories ranging from dozens to hundreds of miles and considered local hegemons. Yet here, they only served as gatekeepers–a contrast that shocked Song Jian.

“That’s nothing. This is the Starry Sky Battlefield. If you go into the Star Hall, you can even see Demi-God Level and even God Level powerhouses!” Xin Ling said nonchalantly.

Having been in the Starry Sky Battlefield for over a year, Xin Ling had grown somewhat numb to these powerful figures. Not to mention here, she had encountered Demi-God Level powerhouses a few times even on the battlefield. Whenever she encountered such powerhouses, Xin Ling would immediately abandon her mission and run. Fortunately, her luck was good; it seemed that each time, the other party was preoccupied with other matters and didn’t care about Xin Ling – who hadn’t reached the Legendary Realm. Otherwise, Song Jian wouldn’t have been able to see Xin Ling here.

“Come on, senior brother. I’ve formed a Hunt and Kill Squad with a few junior brothers and sisters. We work on quests together in the Starry Sky Battlefield. You can join us, so we can look out for each other. The Starry Sky Battlefield is more dangerous than the fifth level dungeons in the game world…” Xin Ling pulled Song Jian and walked towards the distance.

Song Jian hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to join Xin Ling. After all, everything was still unfamiliar since he’d just arrived. It was better to start by joining her Hunt and Kill Squad, and if it didn’t suit him, he could always leave later.
