Chen Mobai and the others learn about Fushang Star, a cultivation base for the valuable small Harmonization Flower. They are assigned jobs and begin a one-month course to adapt to the Xuanhu Dojo system. The planet is overseen by Lao Xiaoyu, a Nascent Soul cultivator, while Huo Gaoyuan, another Nascent Soul cultivator and disciple of Xuanhu Daojun, manages all the small Harmonization Flower bases.

Simply put, one Supreme Grade Spirit Stone holds the same value as one hundred Purple Cloud Coins.

It would appear that the Good Deed Points system, initially established by the Five Ancestors of Xianmen, was also a model that was adopted.

"Would the utilization of two distinct currencies lead to market instability?" Chen Mobai voiced his slight apprehension regarding this possibility.

"Xuanhu Coins are the local tender issued by our Xuanhu Dojo, and their use is strictly confined within the seventy-six star systems under the Xuanhu Dojo's jurisdiction. Purple Cloud Coins, conversely, are issued by the Central Dojo and enjoy universal acceptance throughout the cosmos.

For instance, when we export spirit plants and elixirs from our Xuanhu Dojo to realms like the Dragon and Phoenix Four Palaces, we would naturally refuse their currency and demand settlement in Purple Cloud Coins."

"Indeed, even within the confines of the Xuanhu Dojo, transactions that span across different star systems primarily utilize Purple Cloud Coins. The creation of Xuanhu Coins primarily serves the lower-ranked cultivators who find the value of Purple Cloud Coins to be excessively high, thus necessitating a local currency."

"Even Xuanhu Daojun himself endorses the use of Purple Cloud Coins, as his current accomplishments were largely built upon the wisdom gained from the Purple Cloud Palace. This demonstrates his commitment to his roots."

Wait, he received teachings in the Purple Cloud Palace?

Upon hearing this revelation, Chen Mobai's eyes widened in surprise.

So they were fellow students!

He couldn't help but wonder about Xuanhu Daojun's standing in the class.

Chen Mobai recollected the times he had visited the Purple Cloud Palace and then inquired with the elder if a portrait of Xuanhu Daojun existed, expressing a keen interest in identifying this former classmate.

"Across the entirety of the Xuanhu Dojo, only the disciples directly under Daojun, along with a select few Nascent Soul cultivators, have been privileged enough to witness Daojun's true form. For beings of such elevated cultivation, sentiments of admiration and reverence are as ephemeral as a passing breeze and would hardly be noticed."

The elder shook his head, explaining that on Fushang Star, while temples dedicated to Xuanhu Daojun do exist, the depictions are based on imagination and consequently display considerable variation.

Hearing this, Chen Mobai felt that Taixu Ancestor was superior in comparison, at least his statue accurately represented his true form without any ambiguity.

"There exists an even more esteemed form of currency known as 'Dao Merits,' which is utilized in transactions between cultivators of the highest ranks. For example, within our Xuanhu Dojo, only exceptionally valuable resources such as Harmonization Flowers can be exported to the Central Dojo for exchange into Dao Merits." The elder preempted Chen Mobai's question about Dao Merits, offering the explanation just as Chen Mobai was about to ask.

"Might I inquire about the value of this Dao Merit?" Chen Mobai immediately posed the question.

He was eager to ascertain the extent of Gao Tian's profit from their dealings.

"According to the most recent exchange rate at the Central Dojo, one Dao Merit is equivalent to one hundred and twelve million Purple Cloud Coins." The elder stroked his graying beard and delivered an answer that struck Chen Mobai deeply.

When measured in Spirit Stones, this implied that Gao Tian had absconded with over ten thousand Supreme Grade Spirit Stones from him.

It no longer seemed surprising that he had so efficiently processed the temporary residency and arranged for classes and accommodation.

Chen Mobai had already gathered information indicating that the standard procedure for obtaining temporary residency on Fushang Star typically cost tens of thousands of Xuanhu Coins per individual.

He resolved to remember this transaction for future reference.

In what felt like the blink of an eye, a month had elapsed.

"Those are essentially the established rules; given that you are all cultivators at the God-Transcending level, it's highly probable that the assigned jobs hold little interest for you, so I will not assign them."

Having concluded the final lecture, the elder gathered his textbook, imparted these parting words, and departed from the classroom.

Chen Mobai and the other three wasted no time; they gathered their belongings and immediately left the specialized educational institution.

As teleportation was not prohibited in this area, they returned directly to their designated apartment.

It was evident that Gao Tian had been well compensated, as he had arranged individual suites for each of them, albeit situated on the outskirts of the city. The Spiritual Energy density in this location was at least Rank-5, which was conducive to their respective cultivation paths.

This explained why previous generations of God-Transcending ancestors from Xianmen had consistently aspired to reach the dojo.

Fushang Star, which served merely as a base for medicinal materials for the Xuanhu Dojo, possessed several Sixth Rank Spirit Veins, and the city where they were residing was situated atop a Sixth Rank Superior Grade Spirit Vein.

Word had it that the city center was the domain of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"What shall we do next?"

As they settled down, Master Peach Blossom instinctively began preparing tea, while Qi Yuheng voiced the question, directing it towards Chen Mobai.

"I still have a portion of Supreme Grade Spirit Stones remaining; I suggest each of you take some, convert them into Xuanhu Coins, and acclimatize yourselves to Fushang Star first."

As Chen Mobai spoke, he snapped his fingers, swiftly summoning fifteen Supreme Grade Spirit Stones from within his Law Domain.

He presented three stones to Qi Yuheng and allocated five stones each to Master Peach Blossom and Cheng Xuan.

When converted to Xuanhu Coins, a single Supreme Grade Spirit Stone was valued at one million.

If utilized judiciously, these resources would sustain them for a considerable duration on Fushang Star.

"Thank you."

Qi Yuheng graciously accepted the five Spirit Stones offered to him.

"I intend to explore the job opportunities that were introduced to us," Cheng Xuan announced his intentions. On Fushang Star, where the economy was primarily based on agriculture and medicinal herbs, there was a significant need for skilled individuals to maintain farm equipment. With his proficiency in artifact refining, he was confident he could quickly rise to prominence in this field.

Furthermore, integrating into such roles would serve to deflect any potential suspicions from others.

"Then, I also plan to visit the flower market. Here, refining elixirs requires a special license, and obtaining it necessitates ten years of prior experience in related fields..." Master Peach Blossom explained her own plans, which were formulated based on her classroom knowledge. Despite possessing the alchemical skills to self-study and achieve Rank-5, she found herself in the position of a novice here, needing to accumulate practical work experience first.

"I haven't attended to Spirit Beasts in nearly eight hundred years..." Qi Yuheng felt a pang of misfortune. His knowledge regarding Spirit Beasts was largely elective, acquired from Kunpeng Daoist Institute, as most of his training had focused on honing his physique and mastering magic duel techniques.

Fushang Star's agriculture was highly mechanized, with Spirit Beasts only being necessary in a few dangerous territories. A specialized breeding ground existed, but it was located on the opposing side of the planet. If Qi Yuheng wished to visit this area, he would have to travel separately from the group.

"Why don't you try manual labor? With your cultivation and strength, you could surely earn a substantial fortune," Master Peach Blossom quipped. Qi Yuheng merely glanced at her, choosing to disregard the playful jab.

"What about you, Pure Yang?" Cheng Xuan inquired, noticing Chen Mobai had yet to share his plans.

"My twenty years traversing the starry void have apparently deepened my comprehension of the Void. Now that we have secured a temporary residence, I intend to dedicate myself to secluded cultivation for a period," Chen Mobai revealed. However, his true intention was to revisit the Tianhe Realm.

Even for cultivators at the God-Transcending level, two decades could be considered a mere blink of an eye. Yet, for him, this relatively young God-Transcending cultivator, the time had felt significantly extended. Even if the Formless Puppet left behind there wasn't a pressing concern, he felt compelled to return as he missed Qing Nu.

"Your talent for comprehension is truly remarkable," Qi Yuheng and the others expressed their admiration upon hearing his words.

During these twenty years of travel, Qi Yuheng had managed to advance one realm. This progress was partly due to consuming an Ascension Dragon Gall Pill obtained from Xianmen, which had pushed him to the early-stage peak of God-Transcending, leaving him only the opportunity for advancement.

"While I am in seclusion, I will enter my own Law Domain realm. Should you require my assistance, simply activate this talisman," Chen Mobai stated, preparing an ink brush, paper, and inkstone as he swiftly drew three talismans on the spot and presented them to Qi Yuheng and the others.

"Understood. When you emerge from your seclusion, do not forget to inform us," Qi Yuheng replied before taking his leave.

Cheng Xuan was the last to depart. As he did, Chen Mobai discreetly passed him an additional five Supreme Grade Spirit Stones, which Cheng Xuan accepted without hesitation.

Once alone in the apartment, Chen Mobai did not immediately activate Turtle Treasure. Instead, he extracted a Formation array and meticulously set it up within his room.

Upon completion, this Formation would be capable of simulating a Small Void. He needed to ascertain whether his sudden disappearance would attract any unwanted attention or investigations, especially considering he was on the territory of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
