Primordial Harem System

They soon finished their meal, and as they all stood up to leave, Shen Yuan then asked, "So, which city are we heading towards, Mom?"

Shen Yuxin paused for a moment, a small smile playing on her lips. "We will be heading towards Shadowveil City. It is situated at the periphery of the Aurora Zone. Maybe you can find something useful there."

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrow slightly as he asked, "Why are we heading toward such a depressing-sounding place?"

Huo Rong giggled slightly as she answered, "It's not depressing at all. It's actually one of the biggest cities in this backward place. Otherwise, you can't even find anything good in most of the other cities."

Bing Rong nodded in agreement. "Yes, there is a big auction house as well. Let's go and see if there will be an auction today or not."

Shen Yuan's eyes lit up in excitement at the thought of exploring a new city, especially since it was a pretty big city as well.

They all got out of the ship, which had been parked some distance away from the city for quite some time already.

A lot of travelers looked at it, but none dared to step forward and ask about it. After all, not everyone can own such a massive private ship, and it's a high-ranking ship at that.

Shen Yuxin stored the ship in her storage ring after everyone walked off from the ship. The nearby people's eyes widened at the disappearance of such a massive ship.

Most storage rings around this area had a storage limit of about 100-1000 cubic meters, and the ship was way over a few thousand meters, even from a distance away.

All the nearby cultivators got further away, not wanting to mess with the wrong people. If they were killed, then no one would even dare to pick up their bodies.

That's how harsh the cultivation world was. The strong would kill the weak, and the weak wouldn't even have the right to demand justice. The only thing that matters here is strength.

Shen Yuan looked at all of this, and his resolve to get stronger only grew stronger, refining his will further.

Shen Yuxin smiled slightly, as this was the effect she wanted with that little show. She wanted to make Shen Yuan realize how absolute power in the cultivation world is. Sometimes, even people's backgrounds can't save them.

Huo Rong and Bing Rong also looked at Shen Yuan with approval in their eyes. Shen Yuxin had already thought about all this during their cultivation years.

Shen Yuan and the others began walking toward the city, ignoring the crowd that had already gathered farther away.

Shen Yuan asked while walking, "What currency is used here, Mom?"

Shen Yuxin patiently explained, "Most low-level cities and cultivators below the Inner Sea Realm use coins to trade. They are: Bronze Coin -> Silver Coin -> Gold Coin -> Platinum Coin. They are exchanged in 1:100; for 1 Silver Coin, you will get 100 Bronze Coins, and so on. The same applies to the other coins."

Shen Yuan nodded while listening to her. "What comes after these mortal coins?"

"Let me tell you about them now," Huo Rong spoke up at this time, looking at Shen Yuxin for permission. Seeing her nod, she continued, "Cultivators use Spirit Stones for all transactions. This is the hard currency of the Cultivation World. These are divided into four levels: Low-Quality Spirit Stones, Mid-Quality Spirit Stones, High-Quality Spirit Stones, and Peak-Quality Spirit Stones.

That's enough for you to know about spirit stones for now. You should get stronger first before learning about the higher-level ones."

Shen Yuan nodded as he didn't mind not knowing about it since he had already amassed a huge number of spirit stones from the daily quest of the system in those 13 years with the system.

They continued chatting as they reached the city gates. They saw a huge line forming of people who wanted to enter as well. They were paying entry fees to the guards to get into the city.

Shen Yuan and the others went there, and all the people made way for them, noticing their extraordinary demeanor.

Shen Yuan didn't react much, as he had expected this much from how the people were reacting to the ship.

He soon reached the city wall, took out a spirit stone from his storage space, and tossed it towards the guards, who hurriedly caught it.

They hadn't even dared to dream about receiving a Platinum Coin, much less a Spirit Stone. They hurriedly stood straight and saluted them, "Welcome, Young Master and Young Mistresses, to our Shadowveil City!"

The surrounding people also muttered under their breaths,

"Who are these people?"

"They look so extraordinary."

"The young man in the front looks like a Young Immortal, and all the ladies look like fairies."

"What are they here for?"

…

They continued whispering to each other, afraid that the Young Immortal would hear them.

Shen Yuan and the others heard their chatter but decided to ignore them as they moved through the city gate and entered the city.

It was bustling with noise as horse-drawn carriages were going everywhere on the concrete roads, and many stalls were set up further into the city on the side of the road.

There was a map on the east side of the wall after entering the city. Shen Yuan and the others looked at the map to see where they wanted to head first.

"Where do you want to visit first, Yuan'er?" Huo Rong asked, looking at him with an excited gleam in her eyes. She was truly excited to spend the day with Shen Yuan, going around everywhere.

Shen Yuan smiled lightly as he spoke, "Let's go visit some alchemy shops to see if something can interest me there."

Shen Yuxin interrupted him, "Yuan'er, you know that what I have in my storage ring is a million times better than whatever you will find here, right?"

"I know, Mom, but I'm just looking around for the sake of it. I don't have any expectations that I will find anything worthwhile here." Shen Yuan answered with a soft smile as he began walking toward the marketplace.
