Primordial Ancient Serpent-Chapter 389: It’s Hard to Survive Without Money
Chapter 389 - 389: It's Hard to Survive Without Money
Shia Virtual World.
"It's too prosperous and lively. Is this the place where all the creatures from the heavens and worlds gather?"
After leaving the teleportation array, Lingbao Tianzun arrived in the city of Shia's virtual world. Immediately, he was met with a dazzling array of commodities, towering buildings, and countless beings of various races.
The sheer number of lifeforms here was beyond his imagination. He never thought there were so many living beings outside the Prehistoric World. This was truly an eye-opening experience.
"It really is too lively. This place is a billion times more vibrant than the Prehistoric World. This is what you'd call a true civilization."
Yuanshi Tianzun was also deeply moved.
Walking along the streets, he listened to the conversations of passersby. Every word he heard broadened his horizons, filling his mind with new ideas and concepts at every moment.
"I found it! I finally found a place where we can obtain cultivation knowledge!"
At this moment, Daode Tianzun emerged from a street corner, his eyes flickering with excitement.
He had been talking to pedestrians, using his exceptional conversational skills and natural charisma to gather a wealth of information with ease.
"Elder Brother, where is it?"
Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun asked at the same time.
"The Chaos Library."
Daode Tianzun said seriously.
Chaos Library?!
Both Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun looked at each other in shock. This was the first time they had heard of such a place.
"It is said to be a supreme institution standing above all the heavens and worlds—a city of gods. The Chaos Library is a unique place that contains cultivation knowledge from ancient times to the present, encompassing everything in existence.
If one can enter the Chaos Library, they will have access to the crystallized wisdom of countless beings throughout history."
Daode Tianzun spoke with deep yearning.
"There really is such a place? Then what are we waiting for? Let's go there immediately!"
Yuanshi Tianzun said impatiently.
"We can't. If we want to enter the Chaos Library, we must first reach Chaos City in person. We can't even leave the Prehistoric World, so how could we possibly appear in Chaos City?"
Daode Tianzun said helplessly.
"Then... what should we do?"
Lingbao Tianzun was stunned.
"Don't worry. Although we can't visit the real Chaos Library, we can access its virtual counterpart.

It is said that every virtual world has a branch of the Chaos Library, which also contains vast amounts of valuable cultivation knowledge.
Of course, it's not as comprehensive as the real Chaos Library in Chaos City, but the knowledge available is still immense."
Daode Tianzun clenched his fists in excitement.
Even in a virtual setting, one could find materials sourced from the Chaos Library. Naturally, these materials wouldn't be the most precious ones, but for these three newcomers, they were more than sufficient.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Before long, Daode Tianzun, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Lingbao Tianzun arrived at the Chaos Library in Shiya's Virtual World and stepped inside.
Immediately, they saw countless extraterrestrial beings reading books, as well as a massive catalog of books projected before them.
"Elder Brother, look! There really are a lot of cultivation materials here!"
Lingbao Tianzun exclaimed excitedly. At a glance, he saw countless books on cultivation, such as:
"Thirty-Six Stages of Swordsmanship Insights"
"How to Find the Sword Dao in Your Heart"
"Eighteen Thousand Styles of Basic Sword Techniques"
"We definitely came to the right place."
Yuanshi Tianzun clenched his fists in excitement. He, too, spotted many books that caught his attention:
"Types and Practices of Supernatural Powers"
"Encyclopedia of Formations Across Worlds"
"Five Elements Supernatural Cultivation Methods"
"The Yin & Yang Qiankun Theory of Art Explanation"
Each of these books made his heart race with excitement. Just by glancing at them, he could already feel that his understanding of the Laws of Heaven and Earth and the Great Dao would reach new heights.
"Wait a moment... If we want to read these books, we need money."
Daode Tianzun narrowed his eyes.
"Money? What is money?"
Lingbao Tianzun and Yuanshi Tianzun were confused. The concept of money had not yet been established in the Prehistoric World, where barter trade was still the norm. No one had invented a universal equivalent for trade.
"It seems to be a general equivalent. The treasures and supernatural powers of the heavens and myriad worlds can all be measured in money. The so-called money here appears to be Chaos Coins."
Daode Tianzun recalled the information he had gathered from his earlier conversations. Chaos Coins seemed to be an essential currency for traveling across the heavens and worlds.
"In other words... without Chaos Coins, we can't buy any of these cultivation books?"
Yuanshi Tianzun's face turned pale.
"Elder Brother, is there any way we can obtain these Chaos Coins?"
Lingbao Tianzun clenched his fists.
"If we could leave the Prehistoric World, we might be able to exchange our treasures for Chaos Coins. But since we can't leave, there's no way for us to trade them."
Daode Tianzun sighed. He possessed numerous treasures from the Prehistoric World, and if he could sell them, he would surely obtain a great amount of Chaos Coins.
However, being unable to leave meant he couldn't make any exchanges.
"I never expected that the outside world would have something like money... Without it, we can't do anything at all."
Lingbao Tianzun was frustrated. He could clearly see mountains of golden opportunities before him, yet he couldn't touch any of them.
"What's going on? What are you doing here? Do you have no money to buy anything?"
At that moment, a librarian noticed Sanqing and shouted.
"Uh..."
Sanqing was stunned. They really had no money.
"I knew it! You three look broke. And yet, you want to enter the Chaos Library without money? Get out of here! Stop blocking the way and wasting our time!"
The librarian unceremoniously kicked them out.
"Damn it! That b*****d is looking down on us!"
Lingbao Tianzun was furious. Back in the Prehistoric World, he was a powerful figure who could command wind and rain. But here, in the outside world, he had been thrown out by a mere gatekeeper and treated with utter disdain.
The humiliation was indescribable.
"Just wait! The tides will turn. Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi—don't look down on the poor and young!"
Yuanshi Tianzun clenched his fists, his pride deeply wounded. This was the first time he had ever suffered such humiliation.
"Don't worry, Little Brothers. Today, they look down on us. Tomorrow, we will rise so high that they won't even be able to reach us!"
Daode Tianzun clenched his fists tightly, his eyes burning with determination.
