Or rather, the soil of the cultivation world in the Eastern Region is perhaps more abundant and orderly compared to the Southern Region.
If the lower levels of the cultivation world in the Southern Region are characterized more by the smoky air and various harsh contradictions of reality.
Then the lower echelons of the cultivation world in the Eastern Region had at least a bit more of the Immortal Qi, appearing less harsh.
Even the mortals here could support themselves through farming.
Although their lives were not as good as those of the cultivators, they seldom saw cultivators recklessly killing mortals.
Of course, it could also be because the place where Chen Dengming used to be was on the fringe of the Southern Region.
...
And it was once the territory of the infamous Yin Ghost Sect, where upright cultivation families like the Lin Family drove away demonic beasts intentionally harming people.
The harsh and cruel cultivation environment was quite normal.
The other rich lands in the Southern Region might also be similar to the situation in the Eastern Region.
Chen Dengming spent a low-grade Spirit Stone to stay for three nights at an inn in Moonlight Market.
He was profoundly moved by the low cost of this place.
Previously in Brocade Mill, a single low-grade Spirit Stone could only pay for three nights’ lodging.
He would have to find an empty bridge hole or a street corner, and make do with a night’s sleep.
At Moonlight Market, cultivators had free access.
Although sleeping on the streets at night was not allowed for fear of affecting the city’s appearance, if someone surreptitiously slept in a corner undetected by the Ming family guards, it was no problem at all.
Now that he had money, Chen Dengming, of course, would not sleep on the streets uncomfortably.
Besides, it was not convenient to let his mini array spirit dance and cultivate.
After staying at the inn in Moonlight Market for three days, he couldn’t help but think about settling down in this relatively peaceful marketplace to slowly cultivate.
Once this ide took root, it sprouted like wild grass in his mind.
It was rare to have a calm cultivation environment, and there were also plenty of cultivation resources.
He wouldn’t have to worry about how to make money or toil for cultivation.
Chen Dengming simply didn’t want to travel anymore.
With all the fighting and killing lately, he, who was never fond of bravery or bitter fights, felt quite tired.
“It’s time to sit down and cultivate for a while.
I made a promise to meet Qiangzi in Absolute Forest City.
But now that I’ve taken a detour to Moonlight Market and I’m thousands of miles away from Absolute Forest City, I’ll visit that place when I’m free…
The Spirit Stones that I gave to Qiangzi should be enough for him.”
Chen Dengming pondered in his heart, then felt slightly ashamed.
“Sorry Qiangzi, my brother will find a place to hide for half a year, then I will come to find you…
You are adept at escaping and are clever, so you should be able to take care of yourself.”
After he made this confession, he felt much better.
Now he had enough Spirit Stones with him.

The cultivation resources would suffice at least for the next six months, and it was enough for him to stay and cultivate in Moonlight Market for a long time.
Now he could continue to delve deeply into the Eastern Region in search of an Immortal Sect, but that didn’t seem urgent at the moment.
With his current cultivation speed, even if the cultivation technique was not good, he could still cultivate his Qi to level nine or near level ten within six months due to his superior Spiritual Root talent.
By then, he would be stronger and could face any situation that might arise on the road more confidently.
…
On this day, Chen Dengming spent three low-grade Spirit Stones in Moonlight Market to buy a Absorbing Breath Pearl.
Using this pearl, he could deliberately suppress his spiritual might and fierce Evil Qi, avoiding conflict with the peaceful aura of the marketplace, which might instinctively cause distrust and rejection, possibly leading to being ripped off when purchasing things.
Then, he found a housekeeper responsible for housing rental affairs in Moonlight Market to inquire about the cost of long-term rental accommodations in the marketplace.
“Before making a move, you need to have your supplies in order.”
Before he could begin closed-door cultivation, he first needed to settle his basic necessities of life.
“A single room in the South District rents for five low-grade spirit stones a month, with six months as the minimum rental period.”
“Houses depend on what you want.
A more remote small house in the North District rents for ten low-grade Spirit Stones a month with a six-month minimum rental period.
A larger house with a good location and two entrances rents for thirty low-grade Spirit Stones a month with a six-month minimum rental period…”
Looking Chen Dengming up and down, seeing his high-ranking robe, the property manager said with a smile and patience.
“Looking at your impressive demeanor, Fellow Cultivator, I think you might want to rent a large house, right?
It’s closer to the Ming Family’s first-rate spirit vein and the spiritual energy is more abundant.
Even though the cost is a bit higher, it makes sense…”
“A big house costs thirty low-grade Spirit Stones a month …
that’s too expensive.”
Chen Dengming, who initially thought he was flush with cash, felt a bit reluctant at the sound of the price, and immediately inquired about the difference in the concentration of spiritual energy between the large and small houses.
In the end, he chose to rent a small house in a remote location.
No matter whether large or small, all houses were located within the market.
The larger houses were close to the first-rate spirit vein, so their spiritual energy was just ten to twenty percent denser than the smaller houses, but their price was three times more expensive, so it wasn’t worth it.
If he were in a familiar place like the Brocade Mill, he would be willing to spend thirty low-grade Spirit Stones to rent a large house.
Otherwise, on a normal day after he used the ‘Soul Snatching Array’, he could invite some cultivators to his yard to cultivate and charge them a small fee as a subsidy.
Now that he was a stranger in a strange land, he obviously couldn’t do this business.
Even if he dared to invite others to his house, they would be too afraid to come for cultivation.
…
Once Chen Dengming had picked his domicile and paid half a year’s rent, a total of sixty low-grade Spirit Stones, the housekeeper’s smile became a lot more sincere.
He immediately summoned a sweet-talking and sensible female cultivator to lead Chen Dengming to see the house.
“Fellow Cultivator, have you just arrived in our Moonlight Market?
Renting a house for half a year as soon as you arrived shows how satisfied you are with our environment.”
