"Chi Bing smiled and said, "No matter what, the person he's talking about doesn't include you."

"Sister Bing, let's find a place to stay first," Mo Wuji said with a smile. He understood what Chi Bing meant. If he, a fifth-grade Divine Pill King, couldn't participate in the Nirvana Academy's assessment, that would be too outrageous.

"I'm afraid it won't be easy. At this time, in the entire Nirvana Dao City, it's hard to find a place to stay, let alone a place to rest." Chi Bing shook her head.

Mo Wuji smiled slightly and said nothing. If he didn't have a strong person like Chi Bing by his side, it would be difficult for him to find a place to stay, because he wouldn't dare to take out pills to exchange. But now, he believed it would be easy to find a place.

Nirvana Dao City was an open cultivation city. Anyone could enter and leave, and there were no time restrictions. Because here, no one dared to cause trouble.

After entering Nirvana Dao City, the first thing the group saw was five divine statues. These statues seemed to have life, standing tall at the entrance of Nirvana Dao City, as if the entire Nirvana Dao City was under their gaze and protection.

Mo Wuji saw many cultivators respectfully bowing when passing by these statues. Even Chi Bing slightly bowed before passing through the statues with Mo Wuji.

Shuai Guo and Da Huang were led by Mo Wuji, so if Mo Wuji didn't bow, they naturally wouldn't make any movements. Mo Wuji not bowing didn't seem out of place either. There were many cultivators here who didn't bow, it wasn't just him.

After passing through the Dao City, divine sense was directly blocked, but sight was not. After all, besides people with spiritual eyes like Mo Wuji, there were very few people who could make their sight penetrate walls.

As Mo Wuji and Chi Bing expected, all the business buildings they passed were overcrowded. As for the pill and weapon shops, they were even more packed. In Mo Wuji's eyes, this wasn't a Dao City of the God Realm at all; it was just a big fair.

The group didn't walk far before seeing two huge plazas. On the left plaza, several arenas were hosting duels. Some fluctuations of the dueling rules were transmitted, and although they were very slight, Mo Wuji and the others could still feel them.

"Nirvana Academy Assessment Scattered Cultivator Quota Duel Field." Several huge words stood on the outer edge of the plaza.

"If you weren't a fifth-grade Divine Pill King, it would be really too difficult to get a ranking in this kind of duel," Chi Bing said with a sigh, looking at the dense crowd on the plaza.

Cultivation was difficult, resources were limited, and countless people competed for them. Opportunities would only be given to the very few who stood out, and the vast majority would be annihilated in the boundless years.

"There are so many people," Chi Chuan couldn't help but exclaim.

The two plazas in Nirvana Dao City were definitely behemoth-level; even if a million people entered, they would still seem spacious. But now, the left plaza was full of people, and some who had arrived earlier had temporarily set up exquisite Divine Mansions. The right plaza, on the other hand, although it also had many people, wasn't as crowded as the left plaza.

"Nirvana Dao City doesn't restrict entry and exit, so these people can't find a place to stay and can only live in the plazas of Nirvana Dao City," Chi Bing explained.

"Why aren't these two plazas merged into one? And why aren't there any Divine Mansions set up on the right plaza? Logically speaking, the right plaza should be more spacious, right?"

Chi Bing said, "Do you see those tall towers in the middle of the right plaza? Those towers are the challenge assessment towers for each Dao. All Dao Kings who want to gain recognition must go to those towers. Wuji, when you authenticate as a Divine Pill King, you'll have to go there as well. These towers are all honor towers built by the Nirvana Academy for each Dao. You can only stay here, you can't set up any Divine Mansions."

Chi Chuan sighed and said, "If we had come earlier, we might have been able to find a place to put a Divine Mansion."

Mo Wuji patted Chi Chuan, "We don't need to look anymore. There's an inn right across from us. Let's go take a look."

Mo Wuji was referring to the Divine Pan Inn across from the plaza. The Divine Pan Inn looked very imposing and was on the edge of the honor towers of each Dao. At least he wouldn't have to run around too much.

"But..." Chi Chuan obviously thought it would be difficult to find a place to stay in an inn now.

"Let's go take a look first," Chi Bing suddenly said. She understood Mo Wuji's plan a bit. With Mo Wuji's intelligence, he couldn't possibly not know that a large inn like the Divine Pan Inn definitely wouldn't have any rooms available. Since Mo Wuji wanted to go take a look, it meant that Mo Wuji had his own way.

...

The Divine Pan Inn was not only luxuriously built on the outside, but even after entering the inn, there was still a sense of grandeur.

Standing in the spacious first-floor lobby, one could even feel that the sky wasn't cut off, giving people a sense of relaxation.

"Fellow Daoists, I'm really sorry, there are no vacant rooms here now." Before Mo Wuji could ask, the inn's attendant came forward with a smiling face and said.

Mo Wuji quickly said, "I'm here to find a friend. He's a late-stage Divine Lord and checked in half a year ago. We just agreed to meet at the Divine Pan Inn. I'm a few months late and don't know which room he's staying in."

"May I ask what your friend's name is?" The attendant asked quickly when he heard that Mo Wuji was here to find a friend.

Mo Wuji said awkwardly, "He probably used an alias when he checked in. Even if I told you, you wouldn't know. You just need to tell me where the cultivator with late-stage Divine Lord cultivation is staying."

The attendant said with a troubled expression, "This, I can't help you with that. Not to mention that we have more than one cultivator with late-stage Divine Lord strength in our inn, even if there was only one, I wouldn't be able to disclose the guest's information."

If Chi Bing, a Divine King, wasn't by his side, this attendant probably would have ignored Mo Wuji long ago.

Mo Wuji took out a bottle of pills and stuffed it into the attendant's hand, saying, "Fellow Daoist, you just need to tell me about the three late-stage Divine Lords who checked in around half a year ago, and I'll go take a look myself. If I can't find him even after looking for three people, I'll just wait for my friend outside."

Liyuan Divine Pills? When the attendant saw Mo Wuji's bottle of pills, his heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously took it.

Liyuan Divine Pills weren't particularly high-grade pills, because they were first-grade divine pills. But these divine pills had a great use, which was to help Yu Divine cultivators advance. The attendant was currently at the sixth level of the Yu Divine stage, only one step away from entering the seventh level. It could be said that with this bottle of Liyuan Divine Pills, he would definitely be able to enter the seventh level of the Yu Divine stage.

If it was any other pill, the attendant would have considered it, but with the Liyuan Divine Pills in front of him, the attendant couldn't consider anything else. This kind of pill was also relatively difficult to buy in pill shops. Even if you could buy it, it would be of very poor quality. Ordinary Liyuan Divine Pills would be ordered by sects or large families as soon as they came out.

It was just like the Yu Divine Fruit. A first-grade divine spiritual fruit was worth more than many fifth-grade divine spiritual herbs.

"Then... I can only tell you about three people at most, and you can't affect any of the guests' affairs, otherwise I'll be in trouble too," the attendant said in a low voice. This was Nirvana Dao City, so he wasn't afraid of Mo Wuji causing trouble, but he was afraid that Mo Wuji would affect him.

Working as an attendant in the Divine Pan Inn wasn't an easy thing.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't take more than half an incense stick's time," Mo Wuji said with certainty.

Hearing Mo Wuji say that it would only take half an incense stick's time at most, the attendant felt relieved. He flipped through the records and said in a low voice, "Room 51 in Block A, Xun Chun, checked in half a year ago, pays the room fee monthly. Room 121 in Block C, Wan Feizhou, checked in seven months ago, pays the room fee every six months. Room 73 in Block A, Jin Yongwu. Paid the room fee for a year, checked in six and a half months ago."

Mo Wuji cupped his fist and said, "Thank you, I'll go take a look."

"Wait, I'll accompany you." The attendant was still a little uneasy.

"Okay, let's go to Room 73 in Block A first. This Jin Yongwu sounds a lot like my friend." Mo Wuji chose Jin Yongwu because Jin Yongwu had paid the room fee for a year and was staying in Block A, so he must be a wealthy person.

Room 73 in Block A was on the twelfth floor of the Divine Pan Inn. After Mo Wuji and the others arrived, he didn't let the attendant activate the restriction. Instead, he had the attendant and Chi Bing wait outside, and he activated the restriction himself.

The person who came out was a gloomy, thin middle-aged cultivator. As soon as Mo Wuji saw him, he could tell that this guy's cultivation should be at the peak of the Divine Lord stage, and his cultivation technique was mainly Yin and soft.

"Who are you? Why are you standing at the entrance of my cave abode?" Jin Yongwu's face immediately turned cold when he saw a small Yu Divine cultivator activating his restriction. However, his gaze then fell on Chi Bing in the distance, and he didn't continue to flare up.

The attendant in the distance's heart skipped a beat. It was obvious that this person wasn't the one Mo Wuji was looking for. He only hoped that this guest was generous and wouldn't mind Mo Wuji's sudden intrusion.

Mo Wuji directly took out a jade bottle and handed it to Jin Yongwu, saying, "Fellow Daoist Jin, take a look at this pill."

Jin Yongwu didn't let Mo Wuji enter his room. Instead, he grabbed Mo Wuji's jade bottle and scanned it with his divine sense. Immediately, his expression changed, and his heart began to pound wildly. This was actually a top-grade Shengjie Pill.

The Shengjie Pill was a fourth-grade divine pill that gave a Divine Lord in the Perfect stage a chance to advance to the World God stage. This kind of divine pill was very rare.

He knew that although he had come to Nirvana Dao City not specifically for the Shengjie Pill, the Shengjie Pill was the thing he needed most.

The reason he hadn't planned on looking for the Shengjie Pill was because the Shengjie Pill was really not easy to obtain. Although the Shengjie Pill was only a fourth-grade divine pill, this kind of fourth-grade divine pill was not only difficult to refine, but also required a top-grade divine spiritual herb, the Moonlight Fruit. Although the Moonlight Fruit was not as rare as the Mingyu Divine Flower, it was still very rare. This kind of divine spiritual herb grew by relying on the power of moonlight, and no sunlight could fall on it.

Even if you found the Moonlight Fruit, it would be difficult to refine a fourth-grade Shengjie Pill without a fifth-grade Divine Pill King, let alone a top-grade Shengjie Pill.

"What do you need me to do?" Jin Yongwu asked, staring at Mo Wuji, as he instantly understood Mo Wuji's meaning.
