I picked up the scattered attributes

Thoughts raced through Feng Xia's mind, and her thoughts became unusually active: "Based on the novels I've read before, I should first find a busy bar... I've got it!"

……

Chapter 0792

To be fair, nowadays, Feng Xia's mindset rarely fluctuates like that anymore.

However, when faced with the vast starry sky beyond Xuan Yuan, the bustling city, and the familiar scene of the "enrollment ceremony," he somewhat regained the feeling he had when he first transmigrated.

It wasn't excitement, it wasn't exhilaration.

It's more of a long-lost sense of novelty.

"Gan."

After that, the novelty was quickly shattered by harsh reality: much of the plot in the novel was a lie!

He did indeed find a bustling restaurant, and he did indeed see all sorts of people coming and going, quite a lively scene, but...

The various topics discussed by the patrons in the restaurant had absolutely nothing to do with the information he wanted to know.

Several men at the next table were completely drunk, reeking of alcohol. They were slumped in their seats, sputtering incoherently about their great achievements in slaughtering gods and demons when they were young.

It sounds so real.

The surrounding guests also tacitly kept a certain distance to avoid these drunkards suddenly going crazy and causing them unnecessary trouble.

"Let me tell you, when that great demon lunged at me from mid-air, I just slid in!"

"The Great Heavenly Demons, while indeed very powerful, also have obvious weaknesses. When they pounce in mid-air, their feet are naturally wide open..."

"Come on, you've been bragging about this little thing for over thirty years! Let me tell you about the time I accidentally stumbled upon a wild innate god in the wilderness..."

Feng Xia carefully scanned his divine sense, finding the conversation both speechless and amusing.

As expected, regardless of whether one travels through time or not, and regardless of the strength of one's cultivation, the human nature of boasting will not change.

Thinking of this, Feng Xia couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"I've been sitting here for half a day now. A third of the people in the restaurant are completely drunk and talking nonsense. A third are relatively sober, but their boasts are even more outrageous than those who are drunk. As for the remaining third, they are mostly talking about gossip and news, which is a far cry from any useful intelligence..."

Before entering Guangling Pavilion, Feng Xia thought it would be an intelligence hub. He believed that as long as he stood there, "rats" from the martial arts world would come up to him and ask if he wanted to buy information.

In reality, the mouse didn't even see a shadow, but instead encountered a waitress in the restaurant who kindly led him to the back toilet.

—It was also stated that everyone has to use the restroom sometimes, and Guanglingxuan would not treat any guest differently because of their use of the back toilet, even if that guest did not patronize Guanglingxuan.

Feng Xia stood in the back restroom for a full fifteen minutes, but no one came to greet her before she finally realized what was going on.

Damn it, I didn't come here to find a toilet!

"I miscalculated. Although there are many customers in the restaurant, most of them are just bragging, and a small number are talking about private matters and gossip. There is hardly any real useful information."

Aside from boasting, many of the topics discussed were similar to the idea that a certain fairy might have a lover, that a certain sect's disciple seemed to have a penchant for men, or that a certain sect leader's cultivation had made a tremendous and astonishing leap...

"To be honest, this intelligence isn't entirely useless, but for me right now, it's not the most useful information."

Feng Xia shook his head helplessly.

After half a day, the only thing he figured out was what the so-called "recruitment" that the pedestrians on the street were talking about actually meant.

To be precise, it was a grand alliance of over a hundred sects, large and small, held once every ten years to recruit disciples from the entire Southern Sky Star Region!

The Hundred Sects Alliance Meeting will be held in half a month.

"It's kind of like a college entrance exam in another world. Those guys we ran into on the road were probably taking the exam. With the big exam looming, no wonder it was so unlucky to run into a 'madman'..."

As Feng Xia sipped her tea and stroked her chin, a thought suddenly popped into her head.

You're saying that with the big exam just around the corner, there are generally only two types of people who can still wander around aimlessly on the street, right?

One type is a casual test, and the other type is also a casual test.

"Then why are you all having such bad luck?"

Feng Xia, holding the teacup, almost laughed out of anger.

After spending several more hours in the elegant seats of Guangling Pavilion, Feng Xia received another piece of information: "It's very simple to obtain the qualification for the Hundred Sects Alliance. Regardless of age or race, as long as you can shake the three treasures set up by the Hundred Sects, you can obtain the qualification to participate in the recruitment exam!"

Once successful, the treasure will automatically record the person's appearance, aura, and so on. In this respect, it is much simpler and easier than the college entrance examination preparation work before time travel.

Before the time travel, there was extremely strict security, and the net of heaven was all-encompassing!

And now?

The recruitment process for the Hundred Sects Alliance looks simple, and it is actually quite simple.

"However, there shouldn't be many people who would dare to cheat. Being able to move the three treasures is just a qualification. When the real alliance meeting opens, the top experts from each sect will be present. Anyone wanting to cause trouble on that occasion..."

Feng Xia shook his head speechlessly. The Hundred Sects Alliance had reportedly been held for at least several hundred sessions. If anyone dared to cause trouble, they would probably have been reduced to ashes by the Mixed N long ago.

What if someone dared to cause trouble under the noses of so many powerful figures and successfully deceived everyone, even reaching the sect without being exposed?

You're really awesome!

"Southern Star Region, Hundred Sects Alliance, Nine Suns Star... Strange, it's really too strange!"

Unbeknownst to her, Feng Xia's brows gradually furrowed.

He quickly made up his mind.

He absolutely had to attend this gathering of a hundred sects!

"It's already quite strange that I appeared in a bustling metropolis after leaving the Xuan Yuan World, but now these supernatural beings from the Nine Yang Star seem to have never even heard of the Xuan Yuan World!"

Not only the Xuan Yuan World, but also the surrounding Xuan Tian Shang Sect, Xing Yue Mo Men, and even Fei Xian Jiao, etc., are not among the Hundred Sects Alliance. They are unheard of and unseen.

It's as if this Southern Star Region is a starry sky completely isolated from the Xuan Yuan World.

It was incredibly distant and incredibly unfamiliar.

"Where have I ended up...?"

Feng Xia finally composed himself, his chest heaving as he took a deep breath and stepped out of Guangling Pavilion.

He had barely stepped out when he heard a woman's voice from behind, and then the girl who had led him to the back restroom rushed out in a hurry:

"Fellow Daoist, you can't leave yet. Guangling Pavilion doesn't accept these counterfeit coins—"

"?"

Feng Xia's steps suddenly stopped, and a big question mark appeared on her head.

……

Chapter 0793

At that moment, Feng Xia's expression was undoubtedly blank.

Counterfeit money?

He thought he was in another world and that it was almost impossible for him to hear those two words!

As it turned out, he bumped into it himself.

"What's going on? How dare someone use counterfeit money at Guangling Pavilion?"

"Didn't they say that the Alliance updated its currency minting technology more than a hundred years ago, so that counterfeit currency has almost never appeared since then?"

"Besides, this is Guangling Pavilion!"

In an instant.

Countless gazes swept over, landing on Feng Xia's face, and whispers rose and fell from all sides.

Come on, let us see what it looks like!

Do they have three heads and six arms, and the liver and gall of a dragon and a phoenix, to dare to run wild in Guangling Pavilion?

"He doesn't seem to have anything special about him. His cultivation level is low, and his physical body is weak. Could this kid have lost his mind?"

"Wait, this guy looks familiar... I remember now!"

Suddenly, one of the guests exclaimed, "I remember now! Yesterday I bumped into a madman on the street. He was rambling incoherently, and it looked just like this guy in the blue shirt!"

"Oh right, this guy has another weird hobby: he keeps a ghostly jellyfish as a pet!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone noticed a semi-transparent, fluffy substance floating beside Feng Xia's hand. It was easy to overlook it if one did not look closely.

At that moment, the translucent, fluffy thing was chewing a piece of pastry in small bites.

Who else could it be but the giant jellyfish in Emperor You's tomb?

"Unbelievable! It really is a ghost jellyfish! Do people actually keep ghost jellyfish as pets?"

"While the ghostly jellyfish is easy to catch, it is incredibly weak. Its attacks are feeble, its defenses are frail, and its only redeeming quality, its soul attack, is barely enough to shake a supernatural being of the same level..."

"Anyone who keeps a ghost jellyfish as a pet is either crazy or stupid!"

Upon seeing this, everyone suddenly understood.

Raising a pet is not the same as raising a pet. Pets are for aesthetics, looks, cuteness, etc., but the purpose of a cultivator raising a pet is ultimately only one thing.

—Become stronger!

If someone is crazy, what's so strange about them trying to fool Guanglingxuan with counterfeit money?
