Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 648 Ancient World (14)



The place that Lin Fan chose to land was a wide open field that didn’t seem to have anything around.

Looking around, he couldn’t see any signs of humans around at all, making him start to doubt the black ball of light’s description of this planet.

The black hall of light naturally could sense his doubts, so it came out and pointed to the side, “Don’t you see the road over there?”

Lin Fan looked over and he found that there was indeed a road that cut right through this field. However, it had been blocked by the tall grass, so he hadn’t been able to see it.

Following the road, it didn’t take long before he was able to make it to a large city.

There was a long line outside the gate which should have been the line for entering the city. However, when Lin Fan saw this line, he felt nervous.

After all, for this many people to be waiting outside in the middle of the day, it should mean that there was a strict check for entering the city. That was bad for him since as a mortal, he had never been registered with any databases before.

If he had to reveal his identity, it would not have been good for him.

In these kinds of situations, when people found out that he didn’t have a backing to rely on, they would mark him as easy prey.

But luckily for him, it turned out that it wasn’t a strict check that was the reason for this line, but rather just a simple problem of volume of people.

When it came to the actual check, all they did was take down his name to record his entry and check if he had any contraband.

All of this took no more than five minutes, but with how it took five minutes to process one person, it made sense that there would be a crowd gathering outside. After all, even as Lin Fan left the gate, he could see that there were more people arriving than going through the gate.

Once he was through, the black ball of light’s laughter filled his mind before it said, “Look at how nervous you were when you were in the line! You’d almost think that you’d have done something wrong! I’m surprised the guards even let you through!”

Lin Fan revealed a displeased look, but he didn’t say anything.

It would have been strange if he were to start talking to himself.

The first stop that Lin Fan made was the Adventurer Guild.

This was a place filled with people who just needed jobs and it was a place for people who didn’t ask too many questions. That made it perfect for someone like Lin Fan.

Even when he was filling out the form, he found that most of the lines asking for information were listed as optional.

The only required line was the name and nothing else.

Of course, the more information you provide, the more chances you’ll get a higher rank. The higher your rank, the better jobs you could take.

Lin Fan didn’t bother providing that much information and just gave his name and the level of his cultivation.

However, when Lin Fan handed the application to the receptionist, she immediately asked in a confused voice, “I’m sorry sir, but what did you write here for the cultivation line? This isn’t a term that I’m familiar with.”

Lin Fan was also confused when he heard this, but he also didn’t know what to say in response to this.

It was at this time that the black ball of light’s voice rang out in his mind again, “Oh that’s right, the cultivation level you’re using isn’t the same one as the ones the humans use…”

His voice drifted off, leaving Lin Fan in an awkward state where he had to pretend to think.

Finally, the black ball of light said, “If I remember correctly, the human equivalent of your current realm should be the Golden Core Realm.”

Lin Fan was surprised the moment he heard this.

He was surprised by the name of the realm that the black ball of light just told him about.

This was a cultivation realm that he was much more familiar with since it was something that had been common in his first past life. This was a cultivation system that the Lin Fan from earth was much more familiar with.

Seeing the surprised look on his face, the receptionist couldn’t help asking, “Sir, are you alright?”

Her words pulled Lin Fan out of his daze and he quickly said, “Sorry, that’s a local term from my world. I should have written the Golden Core Realm there.”

The receptionist was a bit surprised, but she didn’t let it show on her face as she quickly made the revision to Lin Fan’s form.

She wasn’t that surprised to hear that Lin Fan was in the Golden Core Realm since that was normal here.

This was a world that gathered people from many different worlds and reaching the Golden Core Realm was the minimum requirement to travel here without taking a passage.

Those that were below the Golden Core Realm realized the difference between them and those that were in this realm, so they mostly went back to their own realms to become stronger before coming back.

That meant that most of the people who applied to join this Adventurer Guild were people in the Golden Core Realm who came up from separate worlds.

After quickly taking care of the registration, a temporary license was brought to Lin Fan.

This temporary license was the license that was given to F Rank adventurers since most of them didn’t last long and the Adventurer Guild didn’t want to waste resources.

It was a license that would expire in three months unless you made it to the next rank, so it was perfect for people who just joined the Adventurer Guild, especially if they didn’t give them any information like Lin Fan did. In these cases, these people were mostly just passing by and signing up to do some missions for money, which made the temporary license perfect.

Once he received this, Lin Fan headed over to the mission board on the side.𝑂𝔳𝐞𝒍xt.𝐜𝓞𝐦

The missions that were available to those in the F Rank didn’t pay that well, but he couldn’t complain since they were still better than most of the handy jobs that were offered outside. Of course, that did mean that these jobs came with a certain amount of risk, but it wasn’t that bad for Lin Fan.

After taking a job, he immediately left the Adventurer Guild.

Once he was out of the Adventurer Guild, the black ball of light immediately asked, “How do you know about the level of cultivations that was written in the cultivation technique I gave you?”

The black ball of light had always neglected this, but it finally realized that Lin Fan had accepted the cultivation technique too easily.

This was a cultivation technique that it had found in a ruin and the contents were not known to anyone. The current level of cultivation that humans used were not the same as the one that was listed in the cultivation technique, even the Beast Race didn’t use the same names to grade their cultivations.

So why had Lin Fan been able to accept this system so easily?

Lin Fan didn’t respond at all as he had fallen into his thoughts.

After learning the term Golden Core Realm, Lin Fan finally couldn’t take his curiosity anymore.

He still wasn’t sure what kind of place he had been sent to, whether this was supposed to be his trial or if he had reincarnated again. However, there were many clues that were pointing in both directions.

He was at a point where he didn’t know what to do anymore since he didn’t know which choice was correct.

It took him a long time to gather all his thoughts and during this time, the black ball of light had been looking at him with a strange look.

When he finally gathered his thoughts, he was already outside the gates and was near the area of his target.

The first mission that he took was to eliminate some Foundation Realm beasts and to take their core back.

The energy contained within the cores were too wild to be used for cultivation, but there were other uses for them which was why people put up requests through the Adventurer Guild for them. It was one of the easier jobs since most people who became adventurers were in the Golden Core Realm.

The black ball of light was silent the entire time Lin Fan was killing the beasts, but then it couldn’t help asking something when it saw that Lin Fan was finished.

The voice of the black ball of light suddenly rang out, “Who are you?”

This hadn’t been something that the black ball of light had ever pondered because it had assumed that Lin Fan was nothing more than a mortal from a small mortal world. He was someone that couldn’t even imagine what it was like when it was at its peak, so there was no need to worry about Lin Fan.

But after realizing all those things that it never realized about Lin Fan, it couldn’t help feeling that Lin Fan was much more mysterious than it had previously thought.

It even started feeling a sense of danger from Lin Fan.

Lin Fan was silent at first when he heard the black ball of light’s question, but then he suddenly answered, “Nothing more than a mortal.”
