32: Chapter 32 The Solitary Path to Success Lies in Qingyuan
Of course, the most important thing right now is preparing for Foundation Establishment!
Ordinary foundation establishment pills are hard to come by.
As for Earthly Dao Foundation Establishment, the Materials are sufficient, but Chen Xuan is unwilling.
Either Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, or Human Dao Foundation Establishment!
All these years, he has been painstakingly collecting Spiritual Qi, but the result is that there is absolutely no news.
He is still short of two strands of Spiritual Qi for Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment!
Chen Xuan is currently affiliated with the Wangyue Chen Clan, and through connections, he can actually obtain one or even two foundation establishment pills.
Even if not, Chen Xuan could purchase the medicinal ingredients for the foundation establishment pill and find an Alchemist to refine it.
The foundation establishment pill is a Tier 1 High Grade Medicinal Pill, specifically used to break through the Foundation Establishment barrier.
Chen Xuan is already praying that Celestial Han won't mess with him.
After chatting with Zhang Keer and Chen Qiuyu for a while, Chen Xuan left the Tianyuan Shop.
Before leaving, he naturally couldn't forget the old rule: cast a divination!
Invading the secrets of Heaven and Earth to divine the fate of the world!
Red tadpole-like characters quickly condensed into three Jade Slips:
【Today's Fortune: Average.】
【Today's Heavenly Secret: None.】
【Today's Destiny: Sword Cultivator.】
【Small Auspicious: There are many rare treasures in the Treasure Gambling House of Fusheng Immortal City. Examine them carefully, and you might obtain a Legacy to settle down and establish your life.】
【Small Ominous: There are many Opportunities within Fusheng Immortal City. Spending a large sum of money might allow you to obtain a portion of Foundation Establishment spiritual items.】
【Medium Ominous: The raw material for the foundation establishment pill, the Nine-Origin Spiritual Ginseng, is in Fusheng Immortal City. Going in the evening might allow you to obtain it.】
Hiss!
Medium Ominous!
Chen Xuan has been to the Treasure Gambling House quite a few times over the years and is already considered a regular.
The treasures are sealed in treasure boxes, making it impossible to know what is inside.
To put it bluntly, it's just opening blind boxes; everyone relies on their own fate.
Although he can always manage to open something with the help of the heavenly secret jade slip, most of them are heterodox or useless items.
Occasionally, Chen Xuan would deliberately open a few more.
Naturally, this is to obscure the truth.
Once Foundation Establishment spiritual items are obtained in the city, there will always be someone watching.
Especially some Foundation Establishment Families; they have no shame at all.
In order to have one more Foundation Establishment Cultivator in the Family, they frequently kill people to seize treasures; this is a common occurrence.
And as for the raw Materials for the foundation establishment pill, every time this item surfaces, it stirs up a bloody storm.
Each time, a large number of Late-stage Qi Refining Cultivators die violently because of it.
Forget it, forget it.
Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes, there's no need to fight for just a moment.
Chen Xuan chose the Small Auspicious Jade Slip, and a scene flashed into his mind.
It was none other than the Treasure Gambling House, filled with a dazzling array of goods.
His perspective locked onto a treasure box.
Before opening it, Chen Xuan didn't know what was inside either.
I'll go later.
A message transmission flew over.
Chen Xuan immediately went to the message transmission mirror.
After paying a certain amount of Spirit Stones, the mirror surface flickered, and Yao Zhao's figure appeared.
"Big Brother Yao, long time no see."
Chen Xuan greeted him warmly.
Yao Zhao waved his hand and teased, "Now that the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce has spread across the entire Southern Region, how can I bear the title of 'Big Brother' from the President?"
"Hahaha!" Chen Xuan laughed.
Speaking of this Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce, ever since the Wangyue Liu Clan started doing business, it quickly stirred up a craze for Spirit Beasts.
Whether it's for keeping as pets or for Family protection, the cost-performance ratio is maxed out.
Especially the High Grade Bloodline Spirit Beasts sold; they are of good quality and inexpensive, quickly capturing the low-end market.
They even started selling internally! It has become a trend within the Fusheng Sect.
But that's not the key point.
What really makes money is the subsequent series of services.
As long as you buy a Spirit Beast from the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce, you can enjoy various discounted prices: buying Talismans, buying a second Spirit Beast at half price, a second bottle of Bloodline spiritual liquid at half price, a second bottle of cultivation spiritual liquid at half price...
In short, after all the various services, it can almost empty out the savings of a Loose Cultivator!
It's comparable to buying real estate in the market!
Many Loose Cultivators went all in!
However, the butterfly effect brought about by this is also very obvious; the trade situation in various markets has significantly improved.
Teams entering the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range or various small Secret Realms have gains far exceeding those from before.
Various types of Spirit Beasts, such as the treasure-hunting Treasure Rat, and combat-oriented Gray Wolf, Spirit Fox, Giant Bear, etc., have all played a pivotal role.
So much so that a cycle has formed.
At the same time, more Yao Beasts in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range have been captured for breeding and taming.
Nowadays, in Biyun Market, the former Spirit Farmer area has been converted into a Spirit Beast area, and the entire market's income is thriving.
The Fusheng Sect has increased its investment in the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce.
On one hand, if they can truly gradually cultivate Yao Beasts with Earth-grade Bloodlines, the Fusheng Sect will be able to continuously produce sect-protecting Spirit Beasts in the future.
On the other hand, this Wangyue Liu Clan of the Chamber of Commerce is one of the three major clans of the Fusheng Sect and has a great say within the sect.
Naturally, it is inevitable that it will be carried forward.
"The business of the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce has spread across the entire Southern Region, and at the same time, the caravan is opening up the trade route to the Central State, which is the Central Region."
Yao Zhao continued, "I have discussed it with President Liu Yishou, and we can support the caravan with twenty thousand Spirit Stones to open up this road."
"Between the Central Region and the Southern Region lies the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range. In the past, if one wanted to go to the Central Region, one had to be at least a Golden Core Cultivator, risking danger to cross hundreds of miles of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range."
"But the situation is different now; there seems to have been a great war in the Central State, and many people are now crossing the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range. It's equivalent to both sides working together to open up this road."
"And the travelogues or gazetteers recorded in the past all indicated the locations of various Yao Kings, but now, with the passage of time, most of them are vacant."
"The Fusheng Sect also intends to clear the mountains and open the path."
"What is your opinion on this?"
Chen Xuan said, "That is fine; this is a good thing for us."
Due to the lack of records about the Central Region, the trade route can only be opened slowly.
And the west has been the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range since ancient times; going west is just throwing one's life away.
To the east is the vast ocean, far and hopeless.
To the south are swamps and volcanoes, a desolate expanse.
Thus, only the north is the path to civilization.
The further the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce goes, the further he goes.
And the more the Chamber of Commerce flourishes, the more strictly it must be restricted.
This Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce is not just for this lifetime.
Choosing the Qingyuan Token as the person in charge must be for the next lifetime!
The plan for ten thousand lifetimes lies right here in Qingyuan.
Wealth, Companions, Dharma, Land—how can one bet on just a single moment?
Only by binding ten thousand lifetimes with interests.
The Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce opening up the trade route is, for Chen Xuan, a perfect event that coincides precisely with his intentions.
"Hmm... also, regarding the matter of Spirit Beast cultivation, there are already Elders in the Fusheng Sect who want to intervene. Should we accept it?"
"This is the core of our Chamber of Commerce; it is impossible to agree to that." Chen Xuan waved his hand.
If he gives away the trump card, this Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce could just be called the Fusheng Chamber of Commerce.
He would rather it not be the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce than have it be the Fusheng Chamber of Commerce.
Once this technology matures, it will be eternal wealth; Chen Xuan wants to profit from it for ten thousand years.
"Rest assured, with such a secret technique, even if someone obtains the medicinal liquid, they cannot analyze it, let alone configure it."
Chen Xuan felt very confident about the Bloodline refining technology in his heart.
Just as drawing Talismans requires [Dao Condensation], Alchemy requires [Fire Control], this Beast Taming also requires [Blood Fixation]. Without such core technology, how could it be prepared?
The Beast Taming Legacy is incomplete!
The cultivation within it mostly relies on Innate supplementation, but lacks Acquired Bloodline enhancement.
Just like Spiritual Roots, the current development is also insufficient.
There must be Acquired spiritual liquid treasures that can enhance Spiritual Roots, and they can be mass-produced.
Not to mention anything else, Chen Xuan now knows about the [Creation Spiritual Liquid], which is a spiritual liquid that can enhance Spiritual Roots.
In the next lifetime, perhaps he could even research a Spiritual Root spiritual liquid that enhances Spiritual Roots?
In short, the foundation for ten thousand lifetimes is now laid; the Great Dao walks alone, right here in Qingyuan.
