**Chapter 877: Vermilion Bird Star Domain, Star System No. 98**
Outside the flying boat, colorful streams of light replaced the original starry sky, which had disappeared. Lin Muyu found this scene very similar to the one during teleportation.
The flying boat of the Night Wind God had a capability similar to a teleportation array, allowing it to travel rapidly through subspace and reach very distant places in a short time.
Upon first entering the great world, Lin Muyu immediately encountered a god-level figure. Moreover, both this god and his disciple expressed strong goodwill towards him. This situation made Lin Muyu very puzzled and even wary. However, thinking back, he had met Bai Yiyuan shortly after his career change, which seemed somewhat similar.
Gu Qingxuan explained to Lin Muyu along the way, gradually making him understand. Gu Qingxuan indeed had a task to bring a genius from the small world to the great world. The higher the talent of this genius, the greater the benefits she would receive. Perhaps due to fate, Gu Qingxuan encountered Lin Muyu and chose him. To ensure the task was completed smoothly, Gu Qingxuan even invited the Night Wind God to personally escort Lin Muyu.
As for why the Night Wind God intervened to stop the great world laws from baptizing Lin Muyu, the reason was simple. Everyone who comes from a small world enjoys a baptism by the great world laws. During this baptism, the soul, spells, and talents can all be enhanced. However, those who have just entered the great world are often in a state of confusion and cannot fully absorb the benefits of the baptism, sometimes wasting part of it. Therefore, the Night Wind God used his divine power to pause Lin Muyu’s baptism. Once Lin Muyu fully adapted to the great world, the baptism would resume, allowing him to gain greater benefits.
Gu Qingxuan softly said, "Actually, I have a personal motive." "The task I received is a chain task in the Divine City, and your talent is just the first part of it." "If you can enter the Divine City in the future and even step onto the Human Race Divine Path, I will receive more benefits." She candidly revealed her personal motives, simply stating that the better Lin Muyu’s future achievements, the greater her rewards.
From her words, two key pieces of information emerged: the Divine City and the Human Race Divine Path. These places sounded extraordinary. Lin Muyu asked, "Can you tell me about the Divine City and the Human Race Divine Path?" He knew nothing about the human race in the great world and had mostly listened along the way, speaking very little. Even when he spoke, he was very humble, never acting like a genius. Almost everyone who stands out from a small world is a genius, and many are extremely arrogant. The Night Wind God had seen many such people in his long life. He and Gu Qingxuan both liked Lin Muyu’s humble attitude.
Gu Qingxuan slowly explained, "The Divine City is the holy land of our human race, and the Human Race Divine Path is the holy land within the holy land. Everyone in the human race wants to enter the Divine City and climb the Divine Path." "There’s a saying among the human race: ’Those who don’t want to enter the Divine City are not good people.’" This made Lin Muyu smile. Not good people? Could they be bad people?
The Night Wind God looked at Lin Muyu and said word by word, "You have the potential to enter the Divine City." Lin Muyu had no reaction, but Gu Qingxuan exclaimed, "Master, are you serious?" The Night Wind God looked at Gu Qingxuan indulgently, "When have I ever been wrong? With Lin Xiaoyou’s steadiness and the talent to stand out from a small world, entering the Divine City is not difficult." Gu Qingxuan naturally believed her master’s words and looked at Lin Muyu with a different gaze. Perhaps her initial whim would indeed bring her good returns.
Moments later, with a slight tremor, the flying boat left subspace. Brilliant starlight shone again. Lin Muyu saw a massive star, with several equally large stars orbiting it. Gu Qingxuan explained, "This is the Vermilion Bird Star Domain of our human race, and what you see is Star System No. 98 within the Vermilion Bird Star Domain. It contains three life stars, six resource stars, and countless smaller asteroids."
Lin Muyu was amazed by the grandeur of the star system. In this star system alone, there were three life stars, each inhabited by billions of humans. Each life star was far larger than his small world. To support the cultivation of people on the three life stars, there were six resource stars. The nine stars orbited the central star, which provided them with light and heat, forming a perfect cycle. Such a scale was just one star system, giving Lin Muyu a new understanding of the great world.
Along the way, Gu Qingxuan briefly explained the structure of the human race’s world. The human race was one of the strong races in the great world, possessing vast territories. There were four main star domains: Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise. Each star domain contained numerous star systems, all numbered. The four star domains collectively guarded the Central Divine Domain. The Divine City and the Human Race Divine Path, mentioned by Gu Qingxuan, were located in the Central Divine Domain. However, entering the Divine City was not easy and required many assessments.
Lin Muyu’s small world was located on the edge of the Vermilion Bird Star Domain, at the border between human territory and that of other races. Star System No. 98 in the Vermilion Bird Star Domain was the closest life star system to the small world. According to the rules, Lin Muyu’s first stop after leaving the small world was here. Even if the Night Wind God hadn’t come to escort him, other human experts would have brought him here.
The flying boat entered the star system and flew towards one of the life stars. Gu Qingxuan explained, "This life star is numbered Vermilion Bird 98-1, and it’s where you will register your identity." "All human experts coming from small worlds must first register and obtain an identity." "Remember, without an identity, you won’t be able to move freely among the human race."
Lin Muyu nodded lightly, remembering Gu Qingxuan’s words. He also thought of the missing Lilian. He wondered where she had gone and if she would face difficulties without a corresponding identity in the human race.
The flying boat landed on Vermilion Bird 98-1, and the Night Wind God did not appear. Gu Qingxuan led Lin Muyu to register. This was also part of her task, and she would accompany Lin Muyu through all the procedures.
Lin Muyu stepped out of the flying boat and saw many humans. They wore various types of clothing, with no uniform standard. Although they were all human, each came from different worlds with different customs. These differences were evident in every aspect.
Gu Qingxuan said, "Don’t find it strange. Our human race has the strongest inclusiveness among all races, in every aspect." Lin Muyu thought for a moment and asked softly, "Are there many people like me?" Gu Qingxuan shook her head, "Not too many, but not too few either. After all, there are countless small worlds, and there will always be someone who stands out." Under Gu Qingxuan’s guidance, they arrived at the registration office.
The registration office was quite large, built from green stone, exuding an ancient and solemn aura. There was a long queue of hundreds of people, each wearing different clothes, clearly from different small worlds. Lin Muyu was a bit surprised. Wasn’t it said that there weren’t many? This was just one star system, and there were thousands of such star systems in the Vermilion Bird Star Domain. With four such star domains, the numbers must be staggering.
Gu Qingxuan glanced at the registration office, then closed her eyes for a few seconds, seemingly sensing something. She then opened her eyes and said, "We arrived just in time. The registration will open in two days. No rush, we’ll wait a bit."
