***********************************

The cave dwelling rented by Di Qing is located in the inner city of Yulan City.

From the outside, it can only be considered ordinary, but once inside, the space is more than a thousand times larger.

Luo Feng and the other three walked in together.

"I'll divide the space first." Di Qing said.

At the same time, the vast internal space naturally divided itself.

Two small spaces were created in the corners, leaving a public courtyard in the middle, and the remaining space was split in half, each taking up one side.

"You can decide how to construct the internal space by yourself." Di Qing said.

"I'll choose the one on the left."

"Then I'll take the one on the right."

Di Ming and Di Fu didn't hesitate at all and actively chose the two small spaces in the corners.

There were no costs involved, and they could follow Di Qing and Luo He, which was a form of protection. What more could they ask for?

They knew very well that without Di Qing and Luo He, their survival in the city would be a hundred or even a thousand times more difficult.

"I'll send you detailed information about Yulan City. You should study it carefully first." Di Qing said, then walked alone towards his own space.

Di Ming, Di Fu, and Luo Feng also each entered their own spaces.

"In the place we live isn't bad either." Di Ming felt the speed of energy absorption.

"This speed of energy absorption can reach 30% of my maximum speed. Not bad, I've hit a bottleneck in my strength, and my energy requirements are already very low."

Generally speaking, energy is absorbed to the maximum extent during the rapid growth phase, and once the limit is reached, only a small amount of energy is absorbed to sustain life.

"The space is quite large." Luo Feng looked at the vast open area, and with a thought, energy began to gather, naturally forming various palace buildings, including the Nine-Grid Guest Hall.

He then took a step to the highest point of the pavilion, happily took out a bottle of wine, and while drinking, studied the information about Yulan City.

"Yulan City was created by the practitioners themselves."

"Yulan City is governed by the (Yunlan Palace)Elders' Palace. The Elders' Palace currently has three Palace Masters and 327 Elders."

As long as one reaches the late-stage God Emperor enlightenment realm or possesses half-Hunyuan level combat power, they can apply to become an Elder.

Once they can activate part of Yulan City's defense systems, they can become an Elder. If the activation level is extremely high, they can even become a Palace Master.

Luo Feng looked at the information, "Every elder needs to be able to enhance the defensive capabilities of Yulan City. The Elders' Palace is truly making a contribution."

Luo Feng carefully reviewed the detailed information. Once one becomes a member of the Elders' Palace, they are required to reside permanently within Yulan City to ensure its defense. They cannot leave Yulan City even for a moment, and those who can become members of the Elders' Palace all have the strength to venture into the Dark Holy Realm.

Every half-Hunyuan expert definitely yearns to break free from their confines, as there are more opportunities to do so in the Dark Holy Realm.

However, the members of the Elders' Palace have always remained in the Jiuhe Holy Realm, not even stepping out of Yulan City.

"So those who can become members of the Elders' Palace generally have clones. They just leave one clone here, while the others clones have already gone to the Dark Holy Realm." Luo Feng speculated.

"Having clones also indicates something: the core ruling members of the Elders' Palace in Yulan City should all come from the Origin World." Luo Feng deduced a lot of information.

The powerful beings of the myriad worlds, without clones, after becoming strong enough, few would be willing to stay in the Jiuhe Holy Realm.

"Living in Yulan City, practitioners need one Hunyuan Crystal every era, and they also need housing. All residences in the city can only be rented." Luo Feng understood; these fees are the official income of Yulan City.

They needed to support a group of law enforcement practitioners and maintain the city's defense system.

The remaining income would then be distributed among the three palace masters and the 327 elders.

This income must be quite high to attract these powerful beings to keep their clones here for a long-term.

"There are hundreds of millions practitioners below the God Emperor level, while there are only several million at the God Emperor level." Luo Feng looked at the information.

Generally, for those from the Enlightenment lineage could comprehend the complete Dao and becoming a God Emperor wasn't too difficult.

However, those who rely on their bloodline seemed to grow easily, but the height of their growth depended on the strength of their bloodline. If their bloodline isn't strong enough, they might remain stuck at the Ultimate Realm of God King.

"Yulan City has an intelligence organization that sells information on all the God Emperors. This information costs ten thousand Hunyuan Crystals?" Luo Feng's expression changed; he couldn't afford that.

"Moreover, the information collected on the God Emperors can't possibly be truly comprehensive."

For example, when Luo Feng first arrived in Yulan City, the outside world naturally didn't have detailed information about him.

"Brother Luo He." Di Qing's voice came from afar as he arrived at the entrance of Luo feng's space.

"Brother Qing." Luo Feng immediately opened the entrance.

"Isn't the information on all the God Emperors in Yulan City quite expensive?" Di Qing walked over and said with a smile.

"However, this can at most gather about 90% of the information on the God Emperors, because there are still some God Emperors who have quietly broken through. If they don't actively reveal themselves, it's very difficult to understand their information. Even the information sold by those traders only records what can be detected. Many God Emperors have hidden methods." Di Qing said.

"But no matter what, you can hold off on buying it for a short time. However, over a longer period, it's best to get a copy."

"Buying a piece of intelligence is the only way to know how many terrifying entities are hidden in Yulan City, and to understand who should not be provoked." Di Qing said.

Luo Feng understood.

"This information is very valuable, and it is also concealed by spiritual method, which is forbidden to be disclosed." Di Qing said.

"So I can't pass it on to you either."

Luo Feng also understood that gathering intelligence on so many God Emperors across the entire city would be incredibly difficult. If they could spread it throughout the city by just selling a few copies, the intelligence organization would be at a loss.

"Yulan City has a wealth of various commercial resources." Di Qing said.

"Here, everywhere needs Hunyuan Crystals. I'll lend you 100,000 Hunyuan Crystals for now, and you can pay me back after we finish hunting."

With a wave of his hand, Di Qing produced a full 100,000 Hunyuan Crystals, which fell to the side like a pile of dazzling gold and jade.

Luo Feng was truly moved by this scene.

Di Qing let him stay in the cave for free and even gave him half of the space.

If you were to calculate the price, half of the rent for a thousand centuries would be 5 million Hunyuan Crystals, which could be considered a gift to Luo Feng.

Now, Di Qing lent him so much again.

Luo Feng had just arrived in Yulan City and is truly at his poorest time.

"Brother Qing, thank you." Luo Feng didn't say much more.

"We just arrived in the Jiuhe Holy Realm, and it's the time when we need the Hunyuan Crystals the most. With Hunyuan Crystals, we can buy enough resources and strengthen ourselves through those resources." Di Qing said with a smile.

"By the way, when you go out to buy resources, remember one thing."

Di Qing suddenly said solemnly, "Each time you should carry fewer Hunyuan Crystals. In Yulan City, as long as there is enough temptation, killings, plundering, and thefts can happen. Even if you have means to save your life, if your treasures are stolen, the loss would still be significant."

"I understand." Luo Feng nodded.

After all, the previous intelligence had detailed records. Killings and plundering occasionally occurred, while theft and deception were more common because they didn't involve lives, and the official punishments weren't too severe.

"Bring less, even if it gets stolen, it's still considered paying tuition." Di Qing sighed.

"The stealing methods in Yulan City are varied and numerous, with many tricks from different cultivation systems that you've never even seen."

Luo Feng nodded slightly.

After familiarizing himself with the information, he left the cave alone and began to thoroughly explore the city of Yulan, where he would soon settle for many years.

Under Di Qing's reminder, Luo Feng was also very cautious, bringing only 5,000 Hunyuan Crystals.

"With my five types of clones fully prepared, I don't believe I can't protect these 5,000 Hunyuan Crystals." Luo Feng said cautiously.

He didn't bring any treasures, the most expensive being these 5000 Hunyuan Crystals.

This time coming to the Jiuhe Holy Realm, Luo Feng's energy reserves reached 1200 times that of a perfect body.

The energy reserves left on his home continent, Origin Continent, were actually very few.

However, he has been invincible in his homeland long ago, and the energy of the clones he left behind is sufficient.

This 1200-fold perfect energy reserve, with the five clones that Luo Feng took out this time, each have a 200-fold perfect body reserve, allowing them to achieve a state of extreme limit reserve.

Buzz.

The moment Luo Feng left the cave, the entire Yulan City was enveloped in colors, with various protective systems in place.

These are all controlled by the three masters of the Elder Palace and the 327 elders.

Invisible and colorless waves swept across the entire city at regular intervals, and this time, the waves passed over Luo Feng.

In the most central area of the inner city, there is a vast cave.

Deep within the cave, a figure bathed in light sat there, his entire body seemingly forged from radiance, his expression emotionless.

At the center of his forehead is a red diamond-shaped gem, and the diamond-shaped entity inside is rapidly processing vast amounts of information.

Throughout the city, the information of the God Emperors is being collected densely.

"Newly arrived member, Luo Feng, residence: Cave Dwelling No. 99179, Tianshui District, Inner area of Yulan City."

'His strength is suspected to be at the early stage of a God Emperor.'

'He and Di Qing live in the same cave dwelling, possibly from the same origin world.'"

A piece of information about Luo Feng is also included.

While collecting this information, it was simultaneously sent to another mysterious entity.

Inside a vast cave in the inner city area of Yulan City, a massive spherical creature was lying.

The surface of the spherical creature occasionally reveals faces, these expressions either howling, sleeping, filled with hatred, or laughing heartily.

At the same time, the surface of this spherical creature is also covered with countless holes, through which numerous figures come and go.

"The newly arrived God Emperor, Luo Feng, can live in the same place as Di Qing, so he shouldn't be poor."

"Let this newcomer experience the customs of our Yulan City. He should be the most common Enlightenment System, so we can let him try out the power of other systems."

"Moyada he is left in your hands." A command was quickly issued.

Phew.

A small figure flew out from the countless holes of the spherical creature.

"Newcomer in the early stage of the God Emperor?" The short figure chuckled eerily.

At this moment, his organization had already locked onto Luo Feng; as long as he is in the public areas of the city, Luo Feng would have no way to hide.

"Whoosh." The small figure dashed straight towards where Luo Feng was.
