Chapter 210

Chui Yim looked around as the duo strolled along the streets. Where are we going?

Brother Chui isnt from the South Imperial City, so Im afraid itll be strange to you no matter the number of books you read. Kam Chin Kee smiled warmly.

The centre of South Imperial City is the Evergreen Palace, which some know as the citys heart. As for the external city, its separated into four main avenues. The Northern Black Tortoise Avenue, Eastern Blue Dragon Avenue, Western White Tiger Avenue and the Southern Vermillion Bird Avenue. Every avenue is the size of a small city, and every avenue branches into countless streets Ill not go into too much detail for now. For example, the Chor Mansion is located on Blue Dragon Avenue, together with brother Chuis residence that sits in the South East.

Now, we are heading for the Northern Black Tortoise Avenue.

Luckily their destination was relatively near the Cloud Palaces outer sect. It only took about half an hour for the duo to arrive on foot. They arrived at a majestic skyscraper, like most buildings in the South. It was donned in gold, making it sparkle under the sunlight.

They must be really wealthy!

As an expert blacksmith, Chui Yim could easily identify that real gold was used to coat the building; of course, the building itself wouldnt be made of pure gold. They melted gold down to coat the building.

Even so, the amount of gold used to coat the building was exorbitant. On the top of the building stood a chubby, gold spirit tortoise with a snakes tail. This was obviously a statue of the divine black tortoise.

Here we are, South Imperial Citys Black Tortoise auction house, Kam Chin Kee introduced.

The Black Tortoise auction house was the largest and only auction house in South Imperial City. Despite it being named after its location, there werent any other auction houses to be found in the city. Legends had it that this location was chosen because the auction houses founder believed tortoises represented good fortune, thus he chose to build the auction house in Black Tortoise Avenue.

As centuries went by, the auction house indeed prospered, becoming one of the largest auctions in the South. Furthermore, it was located within South Imperial City, where all odd and precious items of the South could be found.

Its scale was shocking. Ordinary items couldnt be found here, the same went for their customers. There were strict requirements for entry; it would be impossible to enter without the corresponding status or strength. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Oh. Mister Mok hummed. I heard the South values art, which is why I travelled here to sell my works. After this auction, I guess Ill become a black grade guest at minimum, huh?

I look forward to that, honourable Mister Mok. The teen looked at him respectfully. Mister Mok felt that this was natural. He viewed this worlds art disdainfully. After all, he was from another world.

In his past life, he was just an ordinary wood craftsman from the company Ki Industries. Horrifying changes took place in his world. A game merged into reality, and he was killed.

He felt like he fell asleep, dreaming and waking up in the body of a middle-aged man wearing weird traditional clothes. He only understood what happened after a few months. It took another few years getting used to his new body.

The owner of this body died in an accident, and somehow he gained control of the body. The previous owner was a single-gliphic gliphist. It felt great to gain something for free.

He was pleasantly surprised to find out that wood carving, a career that was about to vanish in his previous world, was highly valued in this one. Besides its artistic value, carvings engraved with energliph could be used to help ones cultivation.

Since it was difficult to pick up the skill, it often took trainees a long time to become a craftsman. This reduced the number of people who wanted to become a craftsman, and there wasnt any such grandmaster in this world.

It was an industry brimming with potential!

Mister Mok, Mok Muk, was satisfied with where he was transported. He had loved crafts from a young age, which led him to becoming a craftsman, an obsolete job. Thanks to Ki Industries, he was barely able to feed himself. Still, the lack of demand made him feel like he was wasting his life.

Now that he had arrived in this world, he felt that he was Gods chosen, destined to shake this world up. Mok Muk aimed to become the first divine craftsman in the world!

The thought of this made him burn with passion. Today would be the day people would first hear of his name!

Unique and unmatched, everyone was the main character of their own life. However, when compared to the entire world, one was just like a grain of sand, insignificant.

No matter how fantastic, knowledgable or unique your experiences were, staying humble was essential in such a huge world, as there would be others with even more weird experiences and greater strength than you.
