God Of Immortals

Chapter 106: A Journey To The Springflame [III]

"We need to go."

The boy picked up his loin sac and quickly tied it to his back.

"The cavalry is getting ready."

"For what?"

Ju Feng asked in confusion. What concerned him with what the cavalry was getting ready for. He simply had no dealings with them. He knew why he was on the planet, and it wasn't for any cavalry.

"Springflame, of course."

The boy looked at Jufeng in bewilderment. He wondered if Ju Feng was serious with his question or was just playing around. He decided it had to be the latter. He shook his as he moved towards the exit of the abandoned building. He turned to look at Ju Feng.

"If you are coming, I reckon we get going. We should be at the town center for the processing."

"What processing? To join the cavalry?"

"Without that, no springflame with their protection. We don't want that. I, definitely, don't want that."

"Is that really necessary."

"Necessary? Only if you want your name to be in remembrance. We're soul cultivators. We are already part of the city's cavalry. The processing is for us to be accounted for, provided we don't make it back."

"Tell me something."

"Sure. Just make it quick."

"Why is the calvary going to the Springflame?"

"Why?"

The boy asked Ju Feng back in utter shock. Now, he fully believed Ju Feng had totally lost his memories. He might be suffering from a far more intense concussion for what it takes. Such a sad state. Well, a good medicinal pill should make him better. He really felt sorry for Ju Feng.

"For the Irrium coins, of course."

"And, why should the town council care about some Irrium coins?"

"You seem to have lost quite a bit of your memory, friend. I understand. I truly do. Sometimes, tragedy can be difficult to cope with. You've gone through so much already."

With a sad look, the boy let out a soft sigh.

"Well, don't worry about it. It's temporary, your memories will come back in no time. But for now, I will tell you the things you've forgotten."

Ju Feng listened as the boy started to explain. From the words he heard, Ju Feng came to know more of the place.

Planet Wuzhen.

It was a massive planet which was formed from the fusion of three major planets. Those three planets were; Zhaji - the human planet, Arghar - of the Argonians, and Aalag - of the Scavens. That was how Wuzhen became the conjuction of three major planets. It was one of the first planets of its kind that were created after the intrinsic expansion of the universe. Three planets coming together to form a conjuctiom planet. The uniqueness of planet Aalag, didn't stop there. The fusion of the three neurons brought about the creation of an opened dimensional dominion. 

Springflame.

Dominions were one of the places where the cosmic divines hid luminous treasures and artifacts for mortals to find. They were also the homes of other numerous treasures, both naturally and artificially. Some dominions even had divine treasures in them. Those dominions were divided into wake dominions and fallen dominions.

Springflame had changed its status twice due to unforseen problematic situations.

It was once a wake dominion. A dominion which was controlled by a mighty guardian, a divine gold dragon. Over the years of its acclaimed manifestation as an open dominion, many cultivators had explored it, in search of the hidden treasures. True to the course, a number of treasures had been found and carted away. But, there was a particular treasure hidden in this domain. The one that led to the death of the dragon guardian.

The Shadow-rage spear.

A total grade luminous treasure taken by a nameless black-dragon. A dragonblood who was a direct descendant of their ancestral black dragon, Heilong. A sacred beast who had reached ascendant stage and attained total transformation. An ascendant who had already surpassed the mortal plane and immortal dimensional planes. The black dragon had turned on the gold dragon after acquiring the shadow-rage spear.

The death of the gold dragon had an adverse effect on Springflame and planet Aalag.

Springflame became a fallen dominion after the death of the dragon. With no one to oversee it, all the regulations of the dominion broke down. Everything inside the dominion became active, including the deadly traps. Many, a treasure seeker that perished inside the dominion during this period until, suddenly, a new guardian appeared.

A Dawn-Gazer.

Since his appearance, new regulations had been introduced. Springflame became a wake dominion again. Most importantly, it was no longer an opened wake dominion, it became a closed wake dominion. Only Zhuji and Jindan level cultivators could enter it. Nascent souls and hegemons weren't able to enter. That made it more difficult for advanced treasure-seeking cultivators, but still maintained the regulations of the dominion.

Of all the cultivators that came to planet Wuzhen to explore the Springflame dominion, only three half-immortal races beared the difficulty and stayed behind. They stayed behind due to some specific treasures that could be found in the dominion.

The Irrium coins.

Coins, produced by the soul-forger purecelestials at the heart of the eternal cosmic-flames. This they performed in accordance with the laws of creation under the watchful eyes of Divine Caishen. The primordial lord of fortune and wealth. Those coins, served as monetary means for the immortals, gods and celestials alike.

Those coins proved to be the pillars of planet Wuzhen. Why? Planet Wuzhen had limited resources to sustain any potential inhabitants. From the daily materials needed, to the spiritual energy needed for cultivation. But, due to these coins, potential inhabitants could purchase necessary things to make it a better world, from other worlds. Spirit stones and crystals could be purchased from other worlds due to the availability of these coins.

In no time, these three races quickly formed the three powerful kingdoms of Aalag. They scrambled for the outskirt territories, for raw materials and for places where spiritual energy could be found. That was why Wuzhen became known as the world of three opposing kingdoms. The human kingdom, the scaven kingdom and the argonian kingdom.
