451: The races in the star field are all extraordinary.

"No Spiritual Root! Please leave!"

"No Spiritual Root! Please leave!"

"No Spiritual Root! Please leave!"

"No..."

The attendant in charge of testing looked disgusted, shouting mechanically. With each shout, those participating in the test turned away from Xuanji Tower in extreme disappointment and heartache. The disappointment was because they had no Spiritual Root, their path to immortality was hopeless, and their immortal dreams were shattered. The heartache was because they had wasted a testing fee of one superior xuan stone, which was equivalent to ten thousand low-grade xuan stones. For some ordinary families, this could be several months or even half a year's living expenses!

Sabado watched all this with an expressionless face. What he focused on was not this, but the xuan stones received at the testing site. Seeing the dozen or so bulging Storage Pouches at the feet of the attendant collecting the fees, a trace of a smile finally appeared on his calm face. He had struck it rich; this operation had truly been a windfall!

This sum of resources was enough for him to Cultivate for a while, and this was only a portion. There were also the wealth sent by the forces behind those immortal seedlings, as well as future rewards from the Sect; these were the main bulk.

However, when he noticed that the test stone on the counter already had several cracks, he immediately frowned. He was afraid that the test stone could not last much longer. He stepped forward quickly to check it, his face becoming even gloomier, and asked the attendant: "Which test stone is this?"

"Tower Master, this is the last one!" the attendant replied, slightly nervous.

"What? The last one?!" Sabado was stunned.

"Yes! It's estimated that it can only test a thousand more times at most..." the attendant replied.

"A thousand more times..." Sabado's heart trembled. How could he make money like this?

He still had one last test stone on him, the one he had taken out for Prince Fu and the others to test last time. But looking at the surging crowd outside the tower, Sabado knew that even with that one, it couldn't last for a few days. There were still more than two months until Ji Feier arrived, and the money he could collect during this period would be very little.

"No, I must think of a way... I've got it!"

Sabado's brain was quite sharp. He quickly thought of a method and ordered the attendant: "From now on, increase the testing fee to five superior xuan stones each time!"

"Five?!?!" The people around were stunned. With such an expensive testing fee, how many people could afford it?

The attendant also doubted if he had heard wrong and asked incredulously: "Tower Master, are you saying we should charge five superior xuan stones each time?"

"That's right! If you can't afford it, don't test. We only serve the rich!" Sabado said fiercely.

"It's over..." The people queuing behind let out a wail, their whole bodies collapsing to the ground as if their strength had been drained...

This news spread like a plague to everyone queuing outside, and then spread throughout the city at a very fast speed. The crowd finally began to loosen and slowly withdrew from Yingtian Prefecture...

The same situation occurred at the Xuanji Tower testing sites in various bases. Not many people could afford the testing price of five superior xuan stones each time. The immortality dreams of these people were strangled in the cradle before they even began...

Only the wealthy with substantial family assets and Xuan Practitioners with strong earning capabilities still had the opportunity to participate in the test. This situation caused a class chasm to be forcibly drawn between countless people in the Early Stage of the arrival of the cultivation era, almost making them people of two worlds...

When Long Yuan took away Bai Qiming and Meng Hongdie and walked to the west of Yingtian Prefecture, he almost doubted if he had come to the wrong place. This was because his Divine Sense perceived that the human activity in the city was incomparable to before. Many people had already left, and those long queues that stretched out of sight had actually disappeared. The city order was much better. Of course, as the vice-capital of the Great Ming, it was still a bustling place, but it added a bit of murderous aura. Moreover, like other cities, it had already entered a state of combat readiness!

Long Yuan checked the Heavenly Eye information and quickly understood what was going on. He registered in line and entered the city. Less than ten days had passed since he left here last time, but the situation in the Great Ming had changed drastically.

The cultivation wave was temporarily suppressed by the news of the Sea Clan invasion. People finally realized that whether they could Cultivate was a matter for the future; whether they could survive under the fangs and claws of the Sea Clan was reality. Coupled with the fact that Xuanji Tower increased the Spiritual Root testing fees, many people began to respond to the call and actively participated in the actions to resist the Sea Clan invasion...

Walking on the road, passionate songs came to his ears. A strange look appeared on Long Yuan's face. These songs were almost all sung by himself, and they were recorded at the Shidai Tianyin Company in Shuntian Prefecture this time. He didn't expect Xu Ruoying's speed to be quite fast; in the blink of an eye, she had made every base use the recorded version of the songs.

These songs were indeed very suitable for playing at this time and could play a role in inspiring the military and civilians. But if it was always his own singing, people should get tired of hearing it very quickly, right?

No matter how good the voice was, or how good the food was, if you let people listen to it or eat it all the time, they would get tired of it before long. This point was almost indisputable.

"Forget it, these are all small matters. I'll remind Xu Ruoying after the Sea Clan disaster passes! For now, let's go to Chu Qingxue's teahouse to drink some tea..."

Long Yuan observed the situation in the city while strolling to the teahouse opposite Xuanji Tower. He used Xuan Power to slightly change his appearance, then walked up, found a seat by the window, and sat down. The view here was good; he could see the Xuanji Tower opposite, and he could also see the palace complex further away, which was the Emperor Ming's traveling palace. Now, Prince An was presiding over the military and political affairs of the south there.

"Eh, Sabado is back!" Long Yuan browsed the information feed and quickly discovered this point. This was one of the purposes of his visit this time, because the task of assassinating the immortal seedlings that Nether Prison received was leaked to Sabado by him, so he wanted to see if those immortal seedlings had any accidents.

Seeing Sabado sitting upright in the room, closing his eyes and resting, Long Yuan checked his actions over the past few days and quickly discovered the problem. The fact that he had entered his room had actually been detected by Sabado!

And the evidence that he detected him entering was actually the scent he left behind. He didn't expect that the Elf Race's nose was actually more useful than a dog's. Long Yuan was also extremely speechless. He was originally full of confidence that it was impossible to be discovered by Sabado, but as soon as the other party returned, he noticed it. It seems that these Star Domain races are not simple!

He still underestimated them too much. He must cram the information of various Star Domain races and figure out the characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses of each race so that he can accurately avoid pits in the future. Otherwise, he wouldn't even know how his actions failed...
