577: Chapter 577 The Tsunami Begins, Five-Round Fire Technique

The Sky Collapse Plan: to destroy two major dynasties within two years!

Standing behind him, Elder Dan, Mr. Corpse Soul, and Shui Xing all had their pupils constrict upon hearing this!

What grand words, what grand ambition!

Shui Xing was extremely shocked. Everyone had their own assessment of what kind of person Hun Tiandi was, but if things truly went according to His Majesty's plan...

That would be too terrifying!

The two dynasties combined had a total of one hundred and twenty cities; that would mean sixty cities a year!

It was the first time Shui Xing had witnessed the terrifying nature of this Majesty!

"Your Majesty, if the Sky Collapse Plan is to be implemented, the required funds will be enormous!" Shui Xing calculated briefly.

"Correct, five hundred million gold coins are needed!" Hun Tiandi said.

Five hundred million gold coins? Elder Dan and Mr. Corpse Soul exchanged glances, feeling somewhat bewildered. What was the need for so much money?

Could it be to bribe the officials of the two dynasties?

To crush them with money?

Shui Xing said excitedly, "Incredible! Once successfully implemented, the Dayu Dynasty and the Dafang Dynasty will never be able to recover. This plan is too ruthless!"

"Although it is not a massacre like in war, whipping up blood and gore, it is even more terrifying than a massacre, sweeping across the two dynasties!"

After carefully studying it, Shui Xing felt mostly excitement in his heart.

It is truly a disaster for anyone who becomes an enemy of His Majesty.

At the same time, the vast resources of the Darong Chamber of Commerce were sent into the Underworld to initiate the Sky Collapse Plan; a financial tsunami was brewing!

They even mobilized twelve hundred quick-witted and steady individuals!

In the Dahua Imperial Dynasty, in a commercial street in Yue City, shops began to take action!

They immediately began training everyone, spending half a year, and would carry the five hundred million gold coins to be dispersed across the one hundred and twenty cities of the Dafang Dynasty and the Dayu Dynasty.

On the White Bone Plaza, during the Three Dynasties Land Gamble!

A financial tsunami sweeping across the world began silently. Start hoarding Black Meteorite Iron now, stockpile it... make sure all cities need Black Meteorite Iron for refining weapons.

Within three days, shortages would begin, and soon everyone would know that Black Meteorite Iron had become a hot commodity!

People would fight to buy it, and merchants would hoard it!

From this moment on, ten people appeared in every city to comprehensively purchase Black Meteorite Iron.

Consequently, Black Meteorite Iron became scarce on the market, and clever merchants saw the opportunity and also began hoarding it crazily!

Five hundred million gold coins were clearly not enough, but clever chambers of commerce would get involved, and this would create a snowball effect.

Black Meteorite Iron became extremely scarce, leading to a lack of materials for refining weapons, affecting the sale of popular weapons on the market.

This caused the price of Black Meteorite Iron to soar repeatedly; starting from ten times the price, people began hoarding it crazily.

Even Black Meteorite Iron just mined from the veins was immediately purchased by someone!

Subsequently, while the supply of Black Meteorite Iron dropped rapidly and much flowed out onto the market, people were still scrambling to buy it—all of them from other cities.

The fluctuations of Black Meteorite Iron allowed people to make extra money, but even more wanted to hoard it.

After such turmoil, weapon shops lost many customers. When the price of Black Meteorite Iron dropped, another item suddenly became highly sought after!

Sky Returning Spiritual Herb, a medicinal ingredient for refining energy recovery pills, was not very expensive, but its quantity on the market was limited.

Finding it in the mountains was not very difficult.

The price of Sky Returning Spiritual Herb skyrocketed by eight times...

Terrifying profits...

In all the cities of the Dafang Dynasty and the Dayu Dynasty, raw materials, weapon-refining materials, and medicinal materials were constantly fluctuating.

This caused shops to become unstable.

Chambers of commerce began to lack stock, the market became turbulent, and merchants began to worry, but more were gambling.

The originally clear market became a foul mess, with people following the trend to buy regardless of whether the goods were good or bad.

Buy, drop, sell!

These commercial changes did not attract the attention of the government offices; as long as you paid taxes, you could trade freely!

As trading accelerated, tax revenue increased, and the government offices were naturally excited.

But no one noticed the conspiracy within this.

Short selling and buying phenomena began to sprout, and such speculators became more and more numerous, earning massive amounts of gold coins in the process.

Some people even went bankrupt, and without gold coins, they could not buy medicinal pills or weapons.

The markets of the Dayu Dynasty and the Dafang Dynasty were just like that—incredibly confused.

"Your Majesty, but someone has started to fight back!" Shui Xing said worriedly.

"Hmm, we influence the market; having a lot of money can drive the market, but some merchants in the cities have begun to unite, gathering the few into the many, and are playing against us!" Hun Tiandi nodded slightly.

"Your Majesty, then has our plan lost its effect, and can only be used to make money?" Shui Xing frowned and asked.

"No matter, the Sky Collapse Plan, how could it be so simple? This is just the first step!" Hun Tiandi revealed a mysterious smile.

While the financial tsunami was being whipped up in the Underworld, the great battle at Starfall Pavilion in the Yang World had already begun.

Rumble!

Venerable Skyfire's figure was like lightning, his scorching Fighting Qi resembling flames, possessing the power to burn gold and melt iron, with a trace of mockery on his aged face.

"Kid, give up the struggle. Obediently submit to this Venerable One, and you can avoid death!"

"Venerable Skyfire, I have said that you are not qualified!" Hun Tiandi's long blade was sharp like a razor, and lightning Fighting Qi permeated his body.

The lightning was like waves, and the blade aura was extremely domineering.

Among all the elemental Fighting Qi, lightning Fighting Qi had extremely strong lethality, carrying the power of destruction.

The long blade was engulfed in lightning, and the blade aura, like a tide, flew towards Venerable Skyfire.

Hum!

Venerable Skyfire's Fighting Qi surged violently, his palm print crossing the air, and with one palm, he sent Hun Tiandi flying.

Hun Tiandi's figure retreated, his internal blood and Qi surging; this was thanks to his extremely powerful physique.

Roar!

His body shook, and a high-pitched dragon roar resounded, coiling around his body and emitting dragon might.

"This is the aura of a True Dragon? No, that's wrong, it's the scent of a Void Ancient Dragon!"

Venerable Skyfire's expression changed. As a guest elder of Starfall Pavilion, he naturally knew of the existence of the Void Ancient Dragon; that was the supreme being of the Magical Beast World!

This race was even more incomparably powerful, naturally mastering spatial energy, whether on the Fighting Qi Continent or in the Magical Beast World.

No one dared to provoke them.

To think that Hun Tiandi had the aura of a Purple Dragon on him; his heart was even more shaken.

"Void Purple Dragon Aura?" Mu Qingluan exclaimed. As a member of the Green Phoenix Clan, how could she not know how powerful the Void Ancient Dragon was?

"Very well, the Purple Dragon Aura on Hun Tiandi must have been obtained by killing an Ancient Dragon!"

"Hahaha, your enemies are not just Starfall Pavilion, but also the Void Ancient Dragon..."

Pavilion Master You Quan heard this and screamed crazily in her heart, her eyes filled with excitement.

"If you insist on interfering in this matter, then go to hell!" Hun Tiandi's patience was completely exhausted.

Heavenly Demon Body Tempering Method, seven times the power!

Violent power suddenly surged within his body, his muscles like Horned Dragons, and Hun Tiandi's hair, like a waterfall, slowly began to dance in the air.

"Two Thousand Heavy Slashes!"

Hun Tiandi said in a deep voice. The rampaging power urgently needed to be vented, and a thousand-foot blade aura slashed violently towards Venerable Skyfire.

Wherever the blade aura passed, a thin crack was left in mid-air.

"Not good!" Venerable Skyfire's aged face tightened, and he muttered lowly.

"Five Round Li Fire Method, First Layer: Fire Wolf!"

A cluster of crimson Beast Fire emerged from his body, and flame Fighting Qi poured in, squirming continuously in mid-air to form a thousand-foot-tall Fire Wolf.

Crimson wolf fur, bloodthirsty fangs, scarlet eyes, and a ferocious wolf head.

Awoo...

A sky-shaking wolf howl caused the space to ripple in layers.

"This is... the Five Round Li Fire Method?"

"Indeed, I never thought Hun Tiandi would actually force Venerable Skyfire to use his trump card Dou Technique..."

Mu Qingluan sighed.

"Swish!"

Venerable Skyfire pointed a finger, and the Fire Wolf above roared, its thick limbs galloping towards the incoming blade aura.
