Fifth Stop: The Xianzhou Luofu

The Xianzhou is a massive galactic fleet traveling across the expanse, and the Luofu is one of the six flagships of the Xianzhou Alliance. It sails in the endless ocean of stars like a one-way arrow, shooting towards the destined tenemy [sic] of the Lord of the Hunt.

Each of the Xianzhou flagships is like a mini-world packed with everything needed to survive and thrive. bathed in millennia of culture and development, they are worlds worthy of exploration! (σ° ∀° )σ

The Xianzhou Luofu Tourist Guide

Check out the Xianzhou civilization!

On the Xianzhou, you might run into Xianzhou natives who spent hundreds of years researching and perfecting the art of food preservation, where the fresh mouthfeel can be retained for up to a whole month. And you might even meet the Vidyadhara, who may look like children but are actually several generations older than you! (*ﾉω ⋅ *)ﾃﾍ

Also if you just so happen to meet a Foxian and find yourself falling head over heels for them at first sight, do try to take a step back and cool off. Foxians have a natural scent that can confuse your amorous senses~

Travel Essentials: Unveiling the Xianzhou Species
Xianzhou Native: Can live for an indefinite numbers of years and will stop aging once reaching physical maturity.
Vidyadhara: Scions of the Permanence, who can cycle back to the beginning of their lifespan via hatching rebirth and have very slow growth.
Foxian: Ceases to age upon reaching maturity and enjoys a lifespan of 300-400 years, shorter compared to the other two species, which actually allows them a better opportunity to fully embrace life's pleasures.
Outworlder: Residents from other worlds. With Xianzhou's approval, outworlders are allowed to stay for an extensive period of time.

Look here, Pom-Pom really digs these delves!

Pom-Pom once heard that the interior of a Xianzhou ship is comprised of "delves" — artificial subspaces that house all the necessary facilities for the Xianzhou inhabitants. For newly arrived Trailblazers, the Central Starskiff Haven is a crucial hub. This is the spaceport of the Luofu, where vessels big and small dock. Sometimes, you can even buy rare artifacts brought here by merchants from other worlds! Other popular spots for Trailblazers to visit include the Jade Gate, Starwatcher Avenue, and the Palace of Astrum — the headquarters of the Sky-Faring Commission.

What sort of sci-fi sorcery is this!?

Experience the extraordinary with Xianzhou Technology! Soar through the sky on starskiffs — highly recommended by Pom-Pom! Interact with fully sentient Smart Puppets and witness the mind-blowing Butterfly Immersia which is conjured entirely by Foxians' formidable mental prowess.
Regarding the Butterfly Immersia, a certain Foxian informed Pom-Pom that there are always uncultured Outworlders who would equate the Butterfly Immersia to VR after trying it out. These ignorant claims will always be met with death glares from Foxians.

The Xianzhou Luofu Who's Who Guide

Trailblazers, will you introduce some new friends to Pom-Pom?

Jing Yuan

Meet the Cloud Knights general of the Xianzhou Luofu. He may seem slothful in his demeanour, but don't you be fooled into thinking that's who Jing Yuan truly is. Innumerable battle victories and years of experience belie this seemingly indolent general's true strength and make him a force to be reckoned with.

Yanqing

Despite his youthful appearance, Yanqing is a true prodigy in the art of sword fighting! He serves as a lieutenant of the Cloud Knights on the Xianzhou Luofu, dutifully working in tandem with Jing Yuan to defend the ship. Rumor has it that Yanqing loves challenging people to duels and has won against most of the Cloud Knights. He has now set his sights on outworld visitors... But as a Trailblazer, you might just stand a chance against him?

Bailu

Yet another Xianzhou big shot you DO NOT want to mess with! She may look like a little child, but Bailu is actually the reigning High Elder of the Vidyadhara and a master healer most famed for her expertise in medicines. Her often unconventional prescriptions are surprisingly well-received and highly sought after, with a long waiting list of patients reportedly extending thirty years into the future.

Bailu loves preaching about health preservations and medical principles, and she takes it upon herself to be the sole authority in interpreting these concepts. She once proclaimed, "Having a well-balanced lunch that consists of two smoked patties and a cup of milk tea is the best choice for treating heart diseases and maintaining a cheerful mood!"

Qingque

If how to be happy at work can be considered an art form, then Qingque is possible the greatest grandmaster of it. Between procrastination, slacking off, quiet quitting, and phoning it in — even when surrounded by so many hardworking elite coworkers who are considered the cream of the crop in the Divination Commission, Qingque has already mastered all techniques to shirk responsibilities in any way she can. Whenever at work, she has a penchant for leisurely flipping through novel pages or casually playing a few rounds of Celestial Jade. Qingque's motto for survival in the workplace is simple — Never! Work! Hard!

Tingyun

Pom-Pom has heard of Tingyun before~ As the Trade Envoy of the Xianzhou Luofu Sky-Faring Commission and the Head Representative of the Intergalactic Merchant Guild, Whistling Flames, Tingyun is a gifted merchant and a legendary socialite. No matter what she says, there is always an audience for it. Such panache in sociability! Pom-Pom wants to grow up just like her!

The Xianzhou Luofu Entertainment Guide

On Sale Forever!

Locals call this grocery store Salesby. But it's actually not the name of the store, but its proprietor. Salesby is always yelling, "Last three days in business! Everything must go!" Then again, it's been thousands of "last three days," and the store is still business as usual.

Grown Starskiffs? Are They Edible

Starskiffs, the vehicle crucial to the Xianzhou way of life, are not built, they are grown! Having thought about it, it does sound like a Xianzhou specialty. However, since it's grown, Pom-Pom wonders if there are ancient Xianzhou people who tried to eat starskiffs. What would it taste like? Salty? Sweet?
