Additionally, she got a commission from selling goods and tips from some generous customers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That said, her income was generally not high because most people usually bought common goods that didn’t attract a high commission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this time, she was lucky to encounter young master Shen and young master Zhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two not only bought a lot of items on the third floor but also exchanged a level nine demon core on the fourth floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I am lucky today.’ The attendant thought, becoming more attentive to the two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do the two seniors need anything else?\" She asked, but Shen Xu shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take us to the fifth floor.\" He said, and the attendant nodded before leading the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fifth floor wasn’t as well organised as the other floors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the rows were neat, and the goods were properly displayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan immediately went to the bookshelf that contained maps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seniors, do you want the map of a secret realm or other dangerous places?\" The attendant asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is there a map of the Xuanwu secret realm?\" Zhen Yuan asked, and the attendant hesitated before pulling out two maps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Each map has four grades - low, mid, high, top.\" She said, and Shen Xu raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are the differences?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Low-grade maps cover twenty-five per cent or less of the area, mid-grade cover fifty per cent or less, but higher than twenty-five. High grade covers seventy-five per cent or less but higher than fifty, while top grade covers one hundred per cent or less but higher than seventy-five.\" She said, and Zhen Yuan subconsciously frowned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Xuanwu secret realm only has two maps?\" He asked, and the attendant shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are four maps, but the high and top-grade maps cannot be bought with spirit stones.\" The attendant said and began explaining without waiting for the inevitable questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In fact, coverage is not the only difference between the maps of different grades.\" She said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What else is different?\" The double asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Low-grade maps show widely known areas while higher-grade maps include less explored and secret areas.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Additionally, the higher the grade of a map, the more information it contains. Some maps contain monster information, methods of opening secret rooms and such.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Xu was surprised when he heard this and subconsciously looked at the two maps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are these low and mid-grade maps?\" He asked, and the attendant nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The low-grade map costs ten million spirit stones, and the mid-grade costs one hundred million. Seniors, do you want to buy them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about the high-grade and top-grade maps?\" Zhen Yuan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Top-grade maps can only be bought at auctions. Our Myriad Treasures Pavilion sells one map at an auction one year before the Xuanwu secret realm opens. However,..\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However?\" Shen Xu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Buyers of high-grade and top-grade maps must swear to add to the map when they leave the Xuanwu secret realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can we buy a high-grade map?\" Zhen Yuan asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are three conditions. First, swear to add to the map when you leave the Xuanwu secret realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second, you must be a Mahayana realm cultivator or a tribulation transcending realm cultivator.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally, the price is one billion spirit stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This...\" Shen Xu was shocked to hear the conditions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it really worth it?\" He muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seniors, the Xuanwu secret realm is related to a cultivator’s immortal destiny. Having a good map will increase the chances of succeeding in one go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Shen Xu narrowed his eyes with a thoughtful expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the book, the Xuanwu secret realm was described as different from other hidden places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the ’treasures’ were places instead of things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were five grades of sacred places in the Xuanwu secret realm: white sacred place, green sacred place, blue sacred place, golden sacred place, and purple sacred place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cultivating in a white sacred place would allow a cultivator to grasp the most common immortal fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After grasping this fate, a cultivator could ascend, but they would likely not advance past the void immortal realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similarly, cultivating in a purple sacred place would give one a chance to grasp a purple fate, also referred to as a God’s fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, sacred places, even the most common white sacred places, were few and difficult to find.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a map, one could easily find a sacred place, increasing one’s chance of grasping a star of immortality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ayuan, what do you think? Do you want to buy a map?] Shen Xu asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[There is no harm in buying one.] Zhen Yuan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had previously researched the Xuanwu secret realm and was familiar with the sacred places. He even knew that some of the higher-grade sacred places moved around and were difficult to map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a map wasn’t useless and could be used to predict the appearance of superior sacred places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After deciding, the two spoke to the attendant and called the manager.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later, the couple walked out of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion after buying a high-grade map of the Xuanwu secret realm and several other maps and books.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am dying to check the map.\" The double said in an eager voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Let’s first go to the location we chose for our mountain. When we get there, I will prepare the inscription and let a puppet go to the ninety-seventh mountain to secretly erase the earth’s memory.] Zhen Yuan suggested, and Shen Xu immediately agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything went as planned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After arriving at the location they chose, Shen Xu released a portable cave, and Zhen Yuan went inside to etch the forgetting inscription.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When that was done, he sent a puppet to the ninety-seventh mountain and began arranging a formation to guard and isolate the position they chose for their mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the two didn’t take out their portable mountain from the space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, after isolating the place, Shen Xu scattered some common spirit grass seeds on the ground before he and Zhen Yuan returned to their wine shop.\u003C\u002Fp>",1050,"2026-06-06T02:30:15.893Z",1,"novelbin.me","9e65d4efc2457db3476e5881407234acd541f777d38a78b928441176bdfa72a0","falling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-chapter-436","falling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-chapter-434",498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffalling-in-love-to-escape-the-original-book-plot-cover.jpg"]
