Chapter 3319 Investment of 10 Million Immortal Stones

. Since entering the Upper Realm,

Shen Changqing had dispersed numerous demon gods throughout the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm to gather various cultivation resources for himself.

By this point,

the Xingdao Alliance had grown to a considerable size.

However,

at this point,

the Xingdao Alliance had reached a bottleneck.

At this moment,

the White Bone Demon God bowed and asked, “I wonder if Your Excellency has summoned us here, but what is your command?”

The other demon gods remained silent, but all looked at Shen Changqing with a hint of confusion on their faces.

After all, while he occasionally communicated with them using the Demon God Dao Mirror, he hadn’t summoned them in hundreds of thousands of years.

To suddenly have them return at this time naturally led to further speculation.

Shen Changqing said, “I intend to establish the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, emulating the Tongtian Pavilion and other chambers of commerce, but I’m still short on manpower, so I asked you to wait and come back.”

Shen

Changqing then looked at the four demon gods before him, his gaze finally settling on Futian.

“The Zhutian Chamber of Commerce will temporarily be registered under the name of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. Futian, you will be the Chamber of Commerce President, while Bai Gu, Sibi, and Tianyi will be Vice Presidents!”

“We obey!”

Futian and the other demon gods respectfully accepted the order.

Although they had no experience in establishing a chamber of commerce, they had seen a lot of it. With a little understanding, subsequent mastery would not be a big problem.

Then.

Shen Changqing said, “The Zhutian Chamber of Commerce is still relatively young, so we’ll focus on the Tianxing Domain for now. Once we grow stronger, we can expand into other mid- and low-level immortal realms.

As for other high-level and top-tier immortal realms, we’ll slowly expand into them once we’ve conquered the mid- and low-level ones.

As for manpower, I’ll have a group of acquired demon gods from Shenfeng Province work with you.”

“Also, the Tianyao Holy Land will provide you with 10 million high-grade immortal stones as start-up capital. I have only one requirement: that the reputation of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce spread as quickly as possible.

Within 10,000 years, the Chamber of Commerce must generate revenue. If you can’t, someone else will be in charge!”

Shen Changqing’s expression grew solemn as he spoke.

10 million high-grade immortal stones

was no small sum.   To be honest,

it   pained Shen Changqing a little.   But he also understood   that investment was essential for any chamber of commerce to grow.   Otherwise, a new chamber of commerce would lack both fame and foundation, even if it had the backing of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. Expanding   would   be far from easy.   If it were just a small-scale venture, Shen Changqing wouldn’t waste his time.   Upon hearing the investment of tens of millions of high-grade immortal stones, Futian and other demon gods gasped.   To them, such a sum was an astronomical figure.   Not to mention demon gods like Bai Gu, even an innate demon god at the level of an Immortal Emperor felt a deep shock upon hearing this.   Ten million high-grade immortal stones!   Futian fell silent.   He had worked tirelessly for years, and it seemed he had only managed to earn a few tens of thousands of them.   Before,   Futian had always thought that these few tens of thousands of stones were plenty. He   had never imagined   that Shen Changqing’s casual mention of ten million stones had completely overwhelmed Futian.   But after the shock wore off, a surge of lofty ambition surged within the hearts of several demon gods.   This was worth ten million high-grade immortal stones. If the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce could succeed, they would benefit immensely.   Next,   Shen Changqing passed on the Heavenly Demonic Scripture to Futian and other demon gods.   While Futian’s cultivation remained at the initial stage of the Immortal Emperor, demon gods like Four Arms had already reached the advanced stage of the Ancient Immortal.   Reaching the advanced stage of the Ancient Immortal in hundreds of thousands of years was certainly not slow.   Even for those with acquired bloodlines, achieving the advanced stage of the Ancient Immortal in hundreds of thousands of years was not easy.   While the Heavenly Demonic Scripture served as a foundation, while it wouldn’t elevate one’s cultivation realm, it could significantly improve one’s strength.   Of course,   aside from Futian, demon gods like Four Arms were already quite accomplished at cultivating the first stage of the Heavenly Demonic Scripture.   Cultivating the Heavenly Demonic Dao Body, the Saint Body, or even the ultimate Divine Body was impossible.   After all.   The cultivation level of a late-stage Ancient Immortal is ultimately too low.   Without a significant opportunity, achieving a Heavenly Demon Immortal Body is the limit within the Ancient Immortal Realm.   To cultivate higher-level techniques, one must also make corresponding improvements in their cultivation.   However,   as acquired demon gods,   demon gods like Four-Armed possess considerable talent.   Given time, breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm should be no problem.   Furthermore,   with the resources currently at Shen Changqing’s disposal, enabling several acquired demon gods to reach the Immortal Emperor realm shouldn’t be too difficult.   As for the Nine-Stars Suppressing the World Scripture, Shen Changqing didn’t pass it on to these demon gods.   However,   he did open the inheritance treasure pavilion of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land to several great demon gods. Within it, there are numerous Immortal Emperor inheritances confiscated from the Nine Mountains Immortal Court.   While these inheritances aren’t as powerful as the Nine-Stars Suppressing the World Scripture, they are certainly impressive.   At the very least,   for the great demon gods, it’s more than enough for their current cultivation.   ”Also, this is the Tailuo Immortal Stone, which contains the profound Dao rhyme. If you can comprehend the opportunity within, your subsequent breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor will be much easier.   As for the cultivation in the Ancient Immortal Realm, being able to comprehend the mysteries of this immortal stone can also play a significant role!”   Finally, Shen Changqing gave the four-armed demon god and others a thousand kilograms of Tailuo Immortal Stone each for their contemplation and cultivation.   As for Futian, Shen Changqing directly gave him three thousand kilograms of Tailuo Immortal Stone.

While the greatest benefit of these immortal stones is helping ancient immortals reach the Immortal Emperor realm, that doesn’t mean they’re completely useless for Immortal Emperors.

In fact,

even those who have reached the Immortal Emperor realm can comprehend the Dao rhyme within the Tailuo Immortal Stone and improve their cultivation.

However, at the Immortal Emperor level, the Tailuo Immortal Stone’s impact isn’t as potent as that of the Ancient Immortal Realm.

Even so,

for many Immortal Emperors, these immortal stones are a rare treasure.

Otherwise,

the Tianyao Holy Land wouldn’t have consistently produced Immortal Emperors over the years, and they wouldn’t simply stop at the Beginning Immortal Emperor stage.

These immortal stones

not only help cultivators understand the path to opening up the Immortal Emperor universe, but also strengthen their very foundations.

However,

the latter’s impact isn’t as significant,

at least

not on par with top-grade immortal stones.

Regardless,

the importance of the Tailuo Immortal Stone is undeniable.

With the Tailuo Immortal Mine’s mining rate now significantly increased, the output of Tailuo Immortal Stone has also increased

accordingly .

Shen Changqing couldn’t be so generous as to immediately produce seven thousand kilograms of Tailuo Immortal Stone.

Futian and the other demon gods were naturally overjoyed at this opportunity.

Almost none of them spent much time in the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, instead heading directly to Heavenly Demon Immortal City to begin establishing the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

Within the Tianxing Region, Tianyao Immortal City boasted the largest concentration of cultivators, and with the news of the Immortal Elixir now emerging, it had even attracted a large number of powerful individuals.

If the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce could seize this opportunity and build its reputation, subsequent operations would be much easier.

Of course,

the fastest way

would be to hand over the Immortal Elixir, destined for the Tongtian Pavilion, directly to the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

However, doing so

would undoubtedly offend the Tongtian Pavilion without cause.

Furthermore,

the Immortal Elixir was already at the center of a storm, and with the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce’s foundation, it simply couldn’t withstand such a force.

Therefore, Shen Changqing didn’t even consider the idea.

Just follow the steps!

Barring any major disruptions, the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce would eventually grow in power.

The biggest uncertainty is simply a matter of time.

“One novice Immortal Emperor and three post-Ancient Immortals are more than enough to temporarily support a chamber of commerce. Establishing branches in other immortal realms requires at least some time to settle down.

Otherwise, taking too big a step will inevitably lead to trouble!”

Shen Changqing pondered.

For a high-level immortal realm chamber of commerce, having an Immortal Emperor at its helm is naturally quite impressive.

Even the Tongtian Pavilion’s branch in the Tianxing Realm only has Han Chuan, the Immortal Emperor, as its official leader.

Of course,

the possibility of a power behind them is not ruled out,

but even if there is, it wouldn’t be very strong.

Furthermore,

the Tianxing Realm is the home turf of the Celestial Demon Sacred Land.

With the Tianyao Sacred Land as their backing, the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, with an Immortal Emperor at its helm, can handle most of its problems.

Furthermore,

Futian’s strength

is far more than that of an ordinary novice Immortal Emperor.

His years in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm have certainly improved him.

If a problem truly arose, the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land would naturally intervene.

However,

unless necessary,

Shen Changqing would not deliberately publicize the relationship between the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce and the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land.

The best approach was to allow the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce to develop on its own, concealing the existence of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land.

However, this presupposed that the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce could remain viable.

Otherwise,

the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land would have to intervene.

…

A month later,

without alerting any other factions, a new Chamber of Commerce, Zhutian, had emerged within Heavenly Demon Immortal City.

This Chamber of Commerce had appeared so quietly that it seemed as if it had already existed.

With the covert support of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Land, the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, soon after its establishment, immediately began to stockpile numerous cultivation resources, forming the foundation of the Chamber of Commerce.

These resources were naturally included in the ten million immortal stones.

In reality,

Shen Changqing had only granted the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce five million high-grade immortal stones, along with resources worth another five million high-grade immortal stones.

This was naturally done to quickly establish the reputation of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

Without a reputation and the resources necessary for cultivation, who would patronize it?

Five million high-grade immortal stones

was a staggering sum in the high-level immortal realm.

With such abundant cultivation resources, numerous cultivators gradually joined the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, and its reputation spread unnoticed.
