There were countless organizations called “Heavenly Mystery” in Heaven and Earth Star, but there was only one Dao Hall with that name.

For a Dao Hall with the name Heavenly Mystery, it wasn’t hard to guess a few of its functions.

“The Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall is the biggest gathering place of information in the whole Sixth Region. As long as you can afford the price, there’s no intelligence they can’t obtain,” Tang Xuan described the Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall like this.

“And the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord is a figure who has survived for thousands of years. It’s said that he still has another identity in the Central Region and is one of the top echelons of the Starry Ocean Pavilion.”

Gu Nan smiled and asked, “But he’s still nothing more than a Dao Lord, isn’t he?”

No matter how powerful a Dao Lord was, they were only a Dao Lord in the end and couldn’t compare to Tier 4 powerhouses.

Tang Xuan couldn’t help frowning when she heard this. “Don’t underestimate the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord. Even Tier 4 cultivators have to treat him as a distinguished guest.”

Gu Nan, however, heard something else from her words. “There’s a Void Cutter Realm existence in the Sixth Region?”

“Yes.” Tang Xuan nodded with satisfaction after finally seeing a look of surprise on Gu Nan’s face. “Two, actually.”

……

When the starship finally landed, Gu Nan stepped onto Heaven and Earth Star and remarked with emotion to Lan Si behind him, “The monster levels on this new map are a bit high!”

Lan Si, of course, couldn’t understand this and could only show a look of incomprehension.

Gu Nan didn’t expect her to understand either. He just wanted to complain a little.

Originally, he had more or less cleared the Ninth Region’s map. If he liked, he could even reign as a local tyrant there for a period of time.

However, after running to Heaven and Earth Star, he found that the new map’s difficulty level suddenly jumped more than expected.

In Star Realm, the nine regions could be roughly divided into three classes.

The Central Region doubtlessly took the first class. There were slightly more regions in the second class—maybe two or three regions, and the rest belonged to the last class.

And the Sixth Region revered ancient traditions, resulting in many powerful cultivators, so it firmly occupied a spot in the second class.

In Heaven and Earth Star, not only were there two Tier 4 existences on the surface, but there were also over ten top-tier Dao Lords and a large number of small and medium-sized Dao Halls or those strong enough to start Dao Halls.

For example, few people in Heaven and Earth Star had heard of Wei Donghai’s Dao Hall, but he wasn’t weak at all.

Gu Nan walked down with Lan Si, and after getting off the starship, neither Lu Li nor Fu Jing appeared again. Tang Xuan, on the other hand, invited him to visit.

“You need to make an appointment to go to the major Dao Halls, and an appointment at Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall must be made at least three days in advance.” Tang Xuan said with a light smile, “In the meantime, why don’t I show you around Heaven and Earth Star?”

She knew Gu Nan’s strength and wanted to make friends with him for her family, so she didn’t mind being their guide around town.

Lan Si was restless and energetic, so she had long been curious about this new map. When she heard this, she immediately looked at Gu Nan with sparkling eyes.

Even though he had to visit White Mist, Gu Nan was in no hurry, so he simply agreed.

There was only one huge continent on Heaven and Earth Star, and the starship that Gu Nan and the others took landed in the southern part of the continent, which was called the South Coast area.

“Commerce on the South Coast is developed, and all kinds of entertainment industries are quite popular. This area resembles the Ninth Region the most,” Tang Xuan introduced as she walked along the street with the two.

Gu Nan looked at the antique buildings on the side of the road and felt as if he was back in Immortal Demon World. It was hard to believe that this place was also a part of Star Realm.

‘Even a place like this is considered to have relatively developed science and technology?’

Seeing Gu Nan’s thoughts, Tang Xuan added, “I’ve been to the north before, and that’s practically no different from ancient times. There’s even a feudal dynasty.”

Gu Nan shook his head helplessly and was about to speak when there was a noise in front of him.

“Martial force, Third Stage!”

“Hahahaha! Duanmu Fan, this good-for-nothing, hasn’t improved in five whole years!”

“If I were him, I would’ve killed myself in shame a long time ago…”

“That’s right… trash like him who dares to waste family resources really doesn’t know what’s good for him!”

Amidst the crowd’s jeers, a clear voice suddenly shouted, “Thirty years east, thirty years west, don’t you dare bully me because I’m poor now!”

The voice sounded ahead, and the familiar words made Gu Nan raise his eyebrows slightly. He couldn’t help looking over there and saw a teenager with red hair standing.

The red-haired Duanmu Fan had a resolute expression. He was clearly the one who uttered those words just now.

He looked around like a victorious general. “Do you guys dare to make a half-year promise with me, and then fight it out half a year later?”

“Why not?” Those who laughed at him before spoke out in unison.

Gu Nan watched this with great interest. Such a natural “protagonist counterattacking” scene was a rare sight. He turned to Tang Xuan but saw that she wasn’t surprised in the least. Instead, there was a mocking smile at the corners of her lips.

Over there, Duanmu Fan sneered and was about to speak when a few shadows flashed in front of him, and numerous weapons fell toward him at the same time.

These people were all Prodigious experts. Although Duanmu Fan had a fortuitous encounter, his strength hadn’t improved yet. How could he be a match for them?

He almost couldn’t even make a miserable cry and was directly chopped into pieces, while those black shadows started fighting again.

“There’s no mistake—he’s a child of destiny. His fortune is mine! Don’t take it!”

“It’s yours if you just claim it’s yours? How old are you?”

Others simply didn’t speak and focused on robbing. The items they fought over were very interesting. Basically, they were all Duanmu Fan’s treasures.

Pendants, rings, strange objects in his hand… some even gouged out his eyes and heart.

Several people fought each other for a while. One of them grabbed Duanmu Fan’s bloody heart and laughed heartily. “Hahaha! A Prodigious treasure—the Heart of Gold. As expected of a child of destiny. To think that there would be a day when even I can advance to Prodigious Realm!”

As his voice fell, he quickly fled for fear of being targeted by others.

And several other people who fought over the wrong items could only spit in anger, feeling unlucky.

Gu Nan watched in amusement, but Lan Si was in a daze. She couldn’t help asking Tang Xuan, “Elder Sister Tang, what are they doing?”

Tang Xuan said with some helplessness, “Heaven and Earth Star’s destiny is rich, so children of destiny are often produced, and the heavens bestows them with fortune in the form of treasures to help them cultivate.”

“Ever since Ye Chen rose up as the King of the Northern Region two hundred years ago, there have been more and more children of destiny, so correspondingly, there are people who specialize in robbing them of their fortunes.”

Lan Si suddenly realized, “That Duanmu Fan’s lucky treasure is his heart?”

“Right.” Tang Xuan nodded. “The Heart of Gold can give cultivators comprehension abilities on par with Prodigious experts and nigh-inexhaustible physical strength, which is quite a good treasure.”

At this point, she shook her head slightly mockingly. “However, his luck was still pretty bad. Otherwise, he’d definitely be able to turn this misfortune into a blessing and wouldn’t be robbed by them.”

“Of course his luck is bad,” Gu Nan casually interjected. “Someone with a two-character surname would never be a main character.”
