Chapter 2416: Chapter 2416: Liquidating Divine Soul Items

The primary form of the Heavenly Gang Yin Yang Rotation Array has been set up, greatly enhancing the defense capabilities of Hongmeng City.

Although there are not many Immortal Arrays inside and outside Hongmeng City at present, with the protection of the Heavenly Gang Yin Yang Reincarnation Array, it can resist ordinary Immortal Venerables for a period of time. Just for this primary form of Immortal Array, Jing Yan spent materials worth several hundred billion Black Crystal Stones.

These days, Jing Yan’s expenditure has indeed been astonishingly high. Roughly estimated, it amounts to nearly two trillion Black Crystal Stones.

And this is merely the beginning.

The day after the Heavenly Gang Yin Yang Rotation Array was set up, Jing Yan ventured into the city’s underground. This was originally an abandoned Black Crystal Stone ore vein, where underground, there remained web-like tunnels. Jing Yan deliberately did not fill these tunnels before building the city, so he could now store large quantities of Black Crystal Stones inside.

"For now, let’s put in one trillion Black Crystal Stones!" Jing Yan took a day to evenly place around one trillion Black Crystal Stones underground in the city.

After placing this one trillion Black Crystal Stones, the spiritual energy within the entire city surged significantly.

The cultivators in the city immediately felt the change in spiritual energy.

With the Spirit Gathering Array, the spiritual energy released from underground would almost never disperse outside.

The increase in spiritual energy density can significantly enhance the city’s appeal. Of course, this is only the first step; if Hongmeng City is to attract more cultivators, just improving the density of spiritual energy is not enough. Tianji City, Windward City, and Mystic Underworld City have all been established for countless billions of years, with deep foundations supported by powerful forces, and cultivators are accustomed to resting in these three cities closest to the Red Victory Secret Land.

Hongmeng City is very close to the Red Victory Secret Land, and from Hongmeng City to the Red Victory Secret Land is just about 100,000 to 200,000 miles. For cultivators of Immortal Rhythm level, entering the range of the Red Victory Secret Land from Hongmeng City takes merely the time to sip tea.

This Red Victory Secret Land is known as one of Kunling Heaven’s four major dangerous places, also referred to as one of the four treasure lands. Numerous adventurers venture into the Red Victory Secret Land to seek treasure, but of course, many also meet their demise there. In the Red Victory Secret Land, there are Ghost Pattern Beasts at the Immortal Venerable Peak level, and the dangers inside are not only from the Ghost Pattern Beasts. Even Immortal Venerable Peak Practitioners need to be careful when entering the Red Victory Secret Land; historically, the fall of Immortal Venerable Peak Powerhouses in the Red Victory Secret Land is not a rare occurrence.

There was once an Immortal Emperor who remarked that even an Immortal Emperor could not fully explore the Red Victory Secret Land. This means the Red Victory Secret Land is not entirely transparent even to an Immortal Emperor.

This day, Jing Yan reviewed the remaining resources.

The resources consumed during this period exceed three trillion Black Crystal Stones, making it difficult for Jing Yan to keep up. The resources accumulated previously in Faro Heaven and those looted from some slain powerhouses are largely depleted, and mainly consist of various precious materials. Most of these materials are usable, so unless it’s absolutely necessary, Jing Yan would not sell them in exchange for Black Crystal Stones.

Items like Netherworld Crystal Stones, Netherworld Heart, and Fire Cloud Crystal Stones are difficult to acquire, and thus shouldn’t be casually sold unless absolutely essential.

"City Lord, are you looking for me?" Ru Li quickly entered from the outside.

Ru Li is currently the supervisor of Hongmeng City Lord Mansion, primarily responsible for procurement work.

"Yes!" Jing Yan nodded, and then waved his hand.

His Divine Thought moved, taking out some items from the Qiankun World.

"Supervisor Ru Li, can these items be sold quickly?" Jing Yan pointed at the items he took out.

These are items brought back from the Nightmare City area, most of which relate to Divine Soul, including both Magic Treasures and Spells.

Ru Li’s Divine Thought moved to examine them, and his complexion suddenly changed.

"City Lord, these... these are all Divine Soul Magic Treasures and Soul Techniques! Their value is immeasurable." Ru Li exclaimed in shock.

Even in Kunling Heaven, Divine Soul Magic Treasures and Soul Techniques are extremely rare. They are not entirely absent, but are very scarce, and whenever they appear, they attract much attention.

"Yes, can they be monetized quickly?" Jing Yan asked.

His intention, of course, is not to dispose of them carelessly, but to sell them at a high price. If it were just about disposing of them, that would be easy. There’s definitely a considerable number of individuals and forces interested in Divine Soul Magic Treasures and Soul Techniques, but to sell them at a high price quickly requires certain tactics.

"It should be possible. City Lord, are you sure you want to sell these items? These good Divine Soul items are hard to buy even if you want to." Ru Li looked at Jing Yan in confusion.

What he doesn’t know is that this is just a portion of what Jing Yan has brought out. Jing Yan has kept quite a number of Divine Soul Magic Treasures and Soul Techniques.

"Sell. We need a large amount of basic resources." Jing Yan said simply and firmly.

"Then I might try going to Mystic Underworld City. There’s a trade fair happening soon, and it’s said that quite a few reputable people will be attending. If these can be taken outside of the Thunder Domain, they should fetch even higher prices." Ru Li suggested.

"There’s not much time; it needs to be monetized quickly. Supervisor Ru Li, take these items to Mystic Underworld City." Jing Yan gestured.

"Understood! City Lord, I will strive to sell these items at a high price with all my might." Ru Li said, his face flushed with excitement.

Jing Yan entrusted him with so many precious items, an immense sign of trust. Although Ru Li’s life is in Jing Yan’s hands, he cannot conceal the excitement in his heart. It can be said that even the least valuable Divine Soul Attack Magical Treasure amongst these items could easily be sold for over one trillion Black Crystal Stones. The better ones could possibly be worth several trillion Black Crystal Stones. Moreover, the Soul Techniques’ value is also incalculable.

After Ru Li departed, Jing Yan stayed alone in the room.

"Relying on selling Divine Soul Magic Treasures and Soul Techniques is not sustainable."

"Next step is to build a Pill Tower. My Alchemy Dao capabilities haven’t been neglected; with further study, I should be able to offer Divine Pills and Immortal Pills superior to those sold by most towers in the Heavenly Domain. Once the Pill Tower is established and well-operated, it could be the most profitable institution." Jing Yan pondered.

Indeed, Jing Yan’s Alchemy Dao capabilities have never waned. Even when transitioning from the Chaos World to Faro Heaven, Jing Yan frequently personally refined elixirs. He himself would use some elixirs, though he hadn’t focused primarily on alchemy.

Now, to revitalize the Thunder Domain, elixirs are indispensable. For the vast majority of cultivators, elixirs are essential auxiliary items.

Subsequently, Jing Yan sent a message to Wuxia, instructing Wuxia to build a Pill Tower personally. The framework was rather simple; Wuxia took only a few hours to erect a building over ten stories high. However, filling the Pill Tower is not something that can be achieved in one go.

Jing Yan’s alchemy speed is indeed fast, and his pill formation rate is astoundingly high, but to fill a large Pill Tower requires a vast amount of High Grade Divine Pills and Basic Immortal Pills.
