"Can, can you speak a bit more clearly?" Linley was utterly confused.

As soon as he had come out of the metallic creature, he had run into this silver haired old man, who immediately asked him for his inkstone. Although he didn't yet have an idea as to what an inkstone was, he could sense the peculiar aura within it.

It definitely wasn't an ordinary item. How could he so casually give it to others?

"Haha..." The silver-haired old man's face was all smiles. "The three of you just arrived, so I'm afraid there are quite a few things you don't know yet. Fine, then. I'll speak a bit more clearly!"

The silver haired old man glanced around, then said, "This Infernal Realm is one of the Four Higher Planes. As the plane created by the 'Overgod of Destruction', the Infernal Realm is filled with boundless cruelty and savagery. Massacres are commonly seen in the Infernal Realm!" As he spoke, the old man's eyes dimly glowed red.

Linley and the others were secretly startled.

The silver-haired old man swept Linley's group with his gaze, then said with absolute certainty, "Although the three of you are Deities, in the Infernal Realm, you are in unfamiliar territory. I dare say that if you rashly wander about the Infernal Realm, you definitely won't live for more than three days!"

Linley, Delia, and Bebe all were slightly shocked.

"Old man, are you trying to trick us?" Bebe stared.

Although Bebe stared at him, he did so in a very adorable way. The silver-haired old man didn't grow angry either. He said, "Although you have just recently arrived in the Infernal Realm, on that metallic airship of the Redbud Army, the various lords of the Redbud Army should have told you a few things. Fortunately, you are at the Deity level. If you were Saints, even if you had inkstones, I couldn't care less about taking you in.

Within Linley's mind, a scene suddenly appeared.

When they were in that metallic creature, that skinny violet-robed youngster had said, "The Infernal Realm, as one of the Four Higher Planes, naturally has experts as common as the clouds. Since you are in the Infernal Realm, you had best find a tribe or a clan to join!" At that time, Linley hadn't paid too much attention to these words.

But now, he somewhat understood.

Joining a tribe or a clan!

"Linley, the Infernal Realm is actually this dangerous?" Delia looked towards Linley, who immediately sent back a consoling message via divine sense, "No matter what, we are already here in the Infernal Realm. It's best to be cautious. Let me ask him about a few things first."

Linley looked towards that silver-haired elder and laughed. "My name is Linley. Might I ask who you are?"

"Buffett [Bo'fei'te]!" The silver-haired old man smiled.

Linley nodded and laughed. "Mr. Buffett, I would like to ask, what is this inkstone? We just arrived in the Infernal Realm, so we don't know anything at all about these things."

"Haha..." The silver-haired elder laughed. "That's understandable. This inkstone, to be precise, is the currency for the Infernal Realm!"

"Currency?" Linley, Bebe, and Delia were all surprised.

Having lived in the Yulan continent, Linley and the other two understand what a currency meant. The 'currency' of the Infernal Realm was actually this unusual inkstone.

"On what basis is this thing considered currency?" Linley asked, not understanding.

Something that could be used as currency should at least have a certain innate value.
