Through chatting, Xiang Nan learned that this Eternal Secret Realm was truly complicated, and there were too many things he needed to pay attention to.
He glanced at the map. The route he took was open and free, so the time coordinates would never be rewritten.
Then, according to the method of using this set of time coordinates, as indicated on this map.
The first safe city they encountered was located "directly in front" of the map. Draw a vertical line from Coordinate 55 to the top and a straight line from Coordinate 32. Then, the intersection point of Coordinates 55 and 32 was the first safe city.
This is a very simple positioning method.
But what if someone changed Coordinate 55 to Coordinate 45 without you knowing? Then you're completely lost. That's why the toll route keeps changing the coordinates.
The number of time coordinates could only be rewritten by the person in charge of the [Coordinate Crystal Stone], and no one else could.
The coordinates on Xiang Nan's Water Transportation Route, for example, the 55 coordinates that they had just passed, were personally set up by the Great Fire Guild's Fire Palm. Other than the coordinates crystal in her hand, no one else could rewrite the number. This ensured the practicality of the time coordinates.
As a result, this spawned another "stalking" profession.
This was because a route was carved out by an expert. When this expert secretly obtained the coordinates of the route in the past few days, then the "stalker" would stare at this martial artist to see if he had entered the Eternal Secret Realm.
If he didn't enter for a short period of time, it meant that his coordinates had not been rewritten, so the coordinates stolen by others would still be valuable.
In short, many of the surrounding economies and professions that the Eternal Secret Realm extended out were very complicated, and it would not be easy to understand in a short period of time.
Xiang Nan tried to use the power of his Void Divine Lightning to make a spatial positioning here. Sure enough, he discovered that it was completely impossible to do so.
What he felt was a chaotic space, and he couldn't determine his position with spatial positioning.
Li Huan took out another map and showed it to Xiang Nan. This map was called a quest map. There were several paths marked on it, and he said, "These paths are toll paths. There are quests on these paths."
"If you accept the mission, then you can use this route for free. However, the reward for the mission should be 30-70 points with the guild."
"If you don't accept the mission and only use this route, you will have to pay the corresponding rent."
Xiang Nan said, "If I accept the mission, but don't do it, but go on my own expedition, wouldn't it be free to use it?"
"If you fail to complete the mission, you will be deducted from the reward. You will owe the Guild Holy Spirit Stones," Li said with a smile.
Xiang Nan frowned, "It would be more economical to pay the rent."
At the same time, Xiang Nan also noticed that on the map Li Huan took out, the time coordinates marked on the routes were not numbered.
Li Huan said, "You have to pay the rent for these routes before the Guild will give you the numbering information. Since we don't pay the rent, we don't know the numbering of those time coordinates."
Everyone walked forward, constantly encountering rugged terrain, mountain ranges, and strange-shaped forests. There were a large number of unknown plants inside.
Three days later, Xiang Nan and the others successfully arrived at the first safe city.
It was truly a human city, a city that stood tall in the Eternal Secret Realm.
This city was enveloped by a layer of Heavenly Tribulation Realm Astral Qi, but it was not big. It was only equivalent to a former Bluestone City.
When Xiang Nan and the others brought the convoy into the city, the scene in front of them shocked them.
The city was filled with blood and broken limbs!
"What? Fierce beasts have attacked?" Xiang Nan's first reaction was that the Eternal Vicious Beast had invaded Safety City!
However, he immediately realized that this was not the case, because he saw a human martial artist fighting.
Strands of Dipper Qi crisscrossed each other, as if everyone was fighting in chaos, and there was no clear target of attack between them.
Before Xiang Nan and the others could figure out the situation, the three strands of Dipper Qi flew over their scalps.
"What happened?" Xiang Nan bent over and dodged the attacks of the three strands of Astral Qi, shocked and furious.
When they came in, the people of the city saw them as well.
At this moment, everyone stopped fighting. Everyone cheered loudly and ran towards the convoy.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Nan immediately subconsciously grasped the hilt of the saber.
Li Huan hurriedly pressed down on Xiang Nan's arm and said, "Don't move. They're not here for us. They want moon spring water."
Sure enough, a large number of martial artists ran past Xiang Nan without even looking at him. Instead, they directly scooped water from the huge buckets on the motorcade.
"You guys are here." An old man trembled as he walked over and held Xiang Nan's hand with both of his hands.
"What happened?" "Why is there a civil war?" Xiang Nan asked in shock.
He looked at the surroundings in astonishment. It was simply incomprehensible. Not far away, dozens of martial artists with broken limbs and broken arms were still crawling towards the motorcade.
The old man sighed and said, "The spring is dry."
After questioning, Xiang Nan learned a piece of news that made his scalp go numb.
In the past half month, the martial artists who were active in this safe city were unlucky. They encountered a few small-scale Eternal Vicious Beasts. During the battle, all the Moon Spring water that could not be put into the storage ring had been damaged and lost.
Although these martial artists weren't killed by the ferocious beasts, the spring water was gone, so they could only return to Safe City to replenish it.
But even earlier, on the way back, many martial artists had already drunk the spring water in their bodies, and it had expired. They had inhaled a portion of the Eternal Mist.
This kind of thing happened two or three times in a row, causing the spring water in Safe City to be used up.
A martial artist who had inhaled a small amount of Eternal Mist was not enough to be transformed into an Eternal Shadow. However, they had to quickly drink the spring water. Otherwise, they would slowly transform into an Eternal Shadow as time went on.
As a result, they began to charge directly into Safety City and forcefully take away the Moon Spring water that was used to "fill the city".
However, if the spring water poured into the city was distributed to martial artists, then the city would face the possibility of being devoured by the Eternal Secret Realm. At that time, everyone would die together.
Naturally, the other martial artists would not agree to this.
Thus, a martial artist who was in urgent need of spring water on one side and a martial artist who wanted to protect the city on the other started a war.
According to the old man, this battle had already lasted for about a day. If Xiang Nan and the others came half a day later, all the martial artists in the city would probably have died.
Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat and he secretly blamed himself. He thought that if he had quickened his pace and come a day earlier, this kind of tragedy would not have happened.
Li Huan sighed and said, "Actually, it can't be blamed on us. Our supplies are too bad. Other regular guilds supply them six times a month."
"As for a guild like ours, we only replenish it twice a month. If we encounter a slight accident, there will be a shortage of spring water."
"The Moon Spring Water is in such a place. It really is the Water of Life."
