After millions of years in the library, I became an Immortal Emperor.

"Whoosh—"

A flying boat pierced through the clouds, covering hundreds of miles in an instant. It had been traveling in the sky for several years when finally, the flying boat slowed down.

At the edge of the earth, a magnificent city appeared, towering ten thousand feet high and covered with countless arrays and barriers. Flying ships gathered from all directions.

"This is Boundary City!"

On the flying boat, looking at the giant city in front of her, Lingyu said.

Qin Ming, Qin Ge, and Gu Yi all looked at her.

"The Xuanhuang Great World has ten thousand interdimensional cities, which are connected to various races and regions of the Xuanhuang Great World by interdimensional teleportation arrays."

"Outside the Boundary City lies the realm of myriad races, while within the Boundary City belongs only to one race: the Boundary Race!"

As she spoke, a solemn expression appeared on Jiecheng's face as she looked at him.

"The Realm Race is ranked fifth among the top races in the Xuanhuang Great World, second only to the Spirit Race. It is said that each Realm City has at least one Saint-level warrior."

"Those who enter the Boundary City, regardless of their race, must abide by the rules of the Boundary City."

"Even the demon race is the same."

Lingyu said.

The Realm Race ranks fifth among the top ten races, the Spirit Race ranks fourth, and the Demon Race ranks first.

"We will use the teleportation array in the Boundary City to travel to the Spirit Race. Remember, once we enter the Boundary City, you must follow behind me."

She said this, and all three nodded.

The flying boat entered the boundary city and stopped in the sky. Then Lingyu put away the flying boat, and a person dressed in black came to the group.

"The Spirit Race, and three Human Race members?"

He frowned slightly. He looked a lot like a human, but upon closer inspection, one could see that his skin had a metallic sheen.

This is the Realm Race.

Lingyu stepped forward.

"Lingyu, the quasi-saintess of the Spirit Clan's Ten Thousand Spirits Valley, they are all my servants."

She said, and took out a token with a special valley entrance mark on it, which should be the identity mark of Wanling Valley.

The cultivator frowned slightly as he looked at the token, then bowed slightly to Lingyu.

"Please, Spirit Jade Saintess!"

He said that a piece of black iron fell into Lingyu's hand.

Ling Yu nodded and led Qin Ge and the other two into the Boundary City. He seemed to notice their gazes and paused slightly.

He looked at the three of them very seriously.

"Humans are not qualified to enter the Boundary City. Only those who serve me can enter. This is true not only here, but also in many places in the Xuanhuang Great World."

"There are many races in the Xuanhuang Great World that are hostile to the human race."

"And in many places, the status of humans is extremely low, on par with those who eat blood."

He said, paying special attention to the expressions of the three men. Gu Yi's face looked rather ugly, and Qin Ming's face showed a hint of murderous intent.

This was all normal; what surprised her most was Qin Ge.

Even after hearing such insulting words, she remained calm, holding the zither she never parted from, surrounded by a faint Taoist aura.

Suddenly, she was startled.

"call!"

In just a few steps, the human woman who was only at the seventh level of the Creation Realm when they first met had already stepped into the Celestial Realm.

"Qin Ge, you've reached the Celestial Realm?"

Gu Yi was also shocked, while Qin Ming next to him smiled.

"Little sister, you're a whole realm above me. Just as the master said, you are the one with the best talent."

Qin Ming was very pleased. Mr. Qin Ge had once told him that Qin Ge's talent was stronger than his, but the gentleman did not say how much stronger.

The gentleman also mentioned several other people: Li Yu, Zhao Kuangyi, Qu Yan, and Ye Buzheng, who went to the sea.

The gentleman compared them to seeds, saying that one day they would grow into towering trees, providing shade and shelter for the entire human race.

"But I'll be there soon too."

Qin Ming said that he was also at the eighth level of the Creation Realm, and his progress was equally astonishing.

Lingyu, who was standing nearby, shook her head slightly as she watched this scene.

"evildoer!"

She said that along the way, she had only truly known the time Qin Ming and Qin Ge had spent cultivating, which was less than fifty years.

Yet they have already reached such a level.

This is even stronger than the Holy Son of the Valley of Ten Thousand Spirits.

However, when she asked about Qin Ming and Qin Ge's physical condition, they both shook their heads.

"As the master said, the so-called constitution is just a misinterpretation of the world's living beings. The Great Dao is one, and so are humans. Every person is a unique existence with their own strengths."

"Even a mortal body can be the strongest physique in the world."

Whether one is strong or weak depends on the individual.

She seemed to understand but not quite. All living beings in the world are born into nine classes. The first class are the chosen ones of heaven, while the ninth class are destined to achieve little in their lives.

This is the consensus of all living beings on earth, and it is an innate rule.

But according to that person, it seems that such rules don't matter at all, which is far too far-fetched.

She doesn't believe it.

She just felt that Qin Ge and Qin Ming must have some hidden constitution that they didn't want to talk about.

How could someone of that stature casually teach someone? That person must be exceptionally talented.

"Not only in the Boundary City, but also in some places of the Spirit Race, you must consider yourselves my servants, or great calamity will ensue."

"Even I'm not sure I can save you."

Within the Boundary City, beings from all races of the Xuanhuang Great World reside, and all abide by the rules of the Boundary Race.

"Mystic Ice Elixir, one thousand spirit stones!"

"The Boundary-Breaking Flag was just found in a saint's tomb. It costs only five thousand spirit stones. With this flag, one can break through nine layers of barriers in the world."

"Slaves captured from the Wood Clan cost one hundred spirit stones each. They can be used in medicine and have the function of increasing cultivation level."

……

The cries of vendors echoing through the streets had taken on a certain local flavor. Qin Ming and Qin Ge exchanged a glance as they watched this scene.

They remembered some of the things Feixue had told them.

Many of the behaviors and rules of the myriad races in the Xuanhuang Great World are actually inherited from the human race, and many races bear the shadow of human inheritance.

Isn't this the scene of the human cultivators' market?

"Spirit stones are the currency used by the top ten clans. They are divided into low-grade spirit stones, mid-grade spirit stones, high-grade spirit stones, and top-grade spirit stones."

"What they're calling for are low-grade spirit stones."

"Spirit stones originate from the spiritual veins of heaven and earth and have the ability to assist in cultivation. However, the spiritual energy contained in low-grade spirit stones is extremely thin, so they are not very useful."

She said she only glanced at the things being sold on the street before leaving with the three of them.

"Wood Clan?"

As he was leaving, Qin Ming glanced at the wood race creature bound by a magic seal and frowned slightly.

"The Wood Clan ranks outside the top 5,000 among all races, and in the Boundary City, they are no different from commodities."

Lingyu noticed Qin Ming's confusion and said something.

"What about the humans?"

Gu Yi asked from the side.

Lingyu paused slightly, seemingly thinking for a moment before speaking.

"In terms of strength, the human race should rank 109th among all races, which is not too weak. However, the human race's situation in the Boundary City is not much better than that of the wood race."

"It is said that the Wood Clan was once a group that depended on the Human Clan."

"We have fallen to our current state because of the influence of the human race. The human race is very special, and you will gradually understand this in the future."

She said that although she spoke very casually, they all understood the meaning behind Lingyu's words.

Humans can also be reduced to commodities here.
