Chapter 2932 - 1: A New Starry Sky

Then, has it become a peaceful society?

"Countless strong ones from outside, those domain lord level existences, want to build a harmonious society, and it seems to have nearly formed here. Of course, there are many issues, but to me, it looks quite good."

Jia Yan is seeing such a place for the first time.

The status of strong ones is undoubtedly high, for example, an existence at Jia Yan’s Star River Middle Stage level would definitely cause a stir similar to that of the outside world. After all, those at the middle stage of the Star River can, to a certain extent, decide the fate of a starfield.

But the grassroots can enjoy a unique sense of equality, which is already very impressive.

Jia Yan continued to stroll down the street.

There’s not much to the street, just some so-called specialties, and even some locally excavated energy stones. The energy inside is chaotic, but the label says, ’Locally pure natural energy stones, mix them during cultivation to make power more harmonious, research shows it can increase cultivation speed, delay aging, enhance male charisma, and keep females youthful.’

Wow...

It feels just like those mystical vendors on Earth.

"Hey, master over there, do you want to buy our energy stones? Don’t worry about the effects; they’re genuinely good. You can come and take a look. We have several photos here, all received after use from masters who benefited. You can rest assured, we won’t sell fake energy stones."

The vendor’s eyes lit up when he saw Jia Yan, sensing his Semi-permanent Star Level power.

He actually has only Sky Level power and dares to shout at a Semi-permanent Star Level.

Jia Yan confirmed that the strong and the weak in this starry sky are almost feeling a bit equal.

"I won’t buy it, maybe another time."

Jia Yan wouldn’t buy this stuff; a sweep with Brainwave Power showed that apart from scattered energy, there’s nothing special inside.

During cultivation, it would only make you more disorganized and reduce cultivation speed, but there’s no major adverse effect—the cultivation won’t kill you.

In short, it’s stuff meant to deceive.

"Come take a look, take a look, here are battleship repair pastes—a great product from our starfield’s top manufacturers. Look, I’m holding a battleship wreck, split into two pieces—come, come, I apply the battleship repair paste, look again, step on it hard, hammer it, even bombard it with Brainwave Power, no problem at all. Does your battleship have issues? Using this guarantees an extension of the battleship’s lifespan by fifty years. Today’s big sale! Don’t forget why it’s so cheap; the factory director is my cousin."

A Star Space Level existence, upon seeing Jia Yan approaching, stomped on the battleship wreck it repaired to show Jia Yan the effect.

Haha, the factory director is your cousin?

Jia Yan heard this and almost burst out laughing.

An interesting starfield indeed.

As for this paste, just thinking about it knows it’s a rip-off.

It has strength, but that is a battleship—it might work for a while as a repair, but soon enough it’ll likely cause issues again. Jia Yan was thinking that someone might use this paste and have their battleship disintegrate halfway through flight.

Yet, a scan with Brainwave Power showed that the paste marked not to be used on key load-bearing parts of battleships, which put him at ease, at least the manufacturer knows what it’s up to.

Thinking about it, those who buy such paste shouldn’t be foolish enough to use it on the engine; that’s courting death.

Jia Yan shook his head and walked past, ignoring that shouting guy altogether.

The more he saw the overall feeling of this starfield, the more curious he became about this place.

Indeed, change the location, and you get another place’s style.

Entering a bookstore or a data store-like place, Jia Yan paid to download some sales-themed data.

In the interstellar era, typical civilizations, whether they are forces or whatever, will have endless resources beyond anyone’s imagination. These numerous resource materials may be found online, or may not be, hence bookstores have turned into collectors of this data, and you can find whatever you want inside.

Jia Yan selectively picked a part of the geographical and historical data, certainly not any top-secret versions, but for someone like him who knows nothing about the place, these are already sufficient.

"Oh? There are all sorts of forces, including cultivation sect forces, sect power, commerce association power, and political power, and many more."

Jia Yan observed them for a while and became more interested in the feeling of this place.

Such a chaotic mix of forces still achieves a level of harmony; it feels like this societal model has gone quite far.

"Alright then, sects, huh? It seems there are plenty of messages on the road about various sects recruiting people. Should I give it a try?"

All along, Jia Yan saw posters on the walls stating recruitment by certain sects or sect doors.

According to the data he obtained, this phenomenon results from negotiation among everyone, which means although other forces can’t enter your area, everyone can freely post their own posters, and people are free to choose where they want to go, and no one can interfere.

"A Semi-permanent Star Level joining, I suppose in this starfield, wouldn’t be too small a matter, right?"

Jia Yan, although saw numerous Semi-permanent Star Levels waiting for a train, that’s because trains are mainly for Semi-permanent Star Levels; Respect Level can’t afford it, and Star Space Level rarely rides trains. Those lower on Sky Level or Earth Level can afford it only if they have some money, so on the planet with the train station, there are Semi-permanent Star Levels, which is normal.

And a Semi-permanent Star Level, at least from Jia Yan’s view, shouldn’t get too poor a treatment.

"Besides, I read the description of this starfield, stating that because they are internally stable, and the society is harmonious, combat is very rare, and there are increasingly fewer masters of combat; the overall combat power in this starry sky is very weak, frequently eyed by outsiders, thus don’t even mention exporting this advanced societal form, they almost got defeated."

"If I define myself as an outsider with decent combat power and join certain forces, the income shouldn’t be too low, right?"

Jia Yan was thinking, using his semi-permanent star level avatar’s power, to earn some money, let his true form gain more recovery capital.

"What’s more surprising is, this starfield, because of harmonious social stability, the population diligently works, therefore, the average purchasing power and income are extremely high; wealth is plentiful, yet there are many external foes, everyone wants a piece of this starfield pie, so they really hope for external warriors to join."

If you must describe it, this is the mercenary system.

Entire nation lacks combat skills, yet overflowing with wealth, naturally seeks external powerful support, even spending money doesn’t matter.

Furthermore, the societal power is too dispersed, several large forces can’t even manage the whole starfield, everyone is building private armies, every external super combat power attracts countless forces to offer high costs to protect their own interests.

This is Jia Yan’s opportunity.

"Haha, the strongest in this starfield isn’t even a Domain Master; it’s just a group of masters at the peak of the middle stage of the Star River, using daily tribute to draw a Domain Lord existence, this is what prevents this starfield from becoming prey, but that Domain Lord has grown increasingly indifferent and seems to covet this starfield itself, under such circumstances, this starfield is really weak and in great need of external combat power."

Jia Yan walked, entering into the subspace.

He waiting for the train? Impossible, that train isn’t faster than him moving in subspace.

Three or four days later, at a ’Sect Recruitment Conference’.

"There’s a completely black creature over there, so much fur."

"Our starfield has never seen such a being; could it be an outsider strong one?"
