Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1180 - 571: The Primordial Talisman Sect After Five Years, the Development of the Mixed Element Commerce
Previously on Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World...
Five years later.Time truly does fly; in the span of a breath, five years have vanished. During this period, even though Jiang Fan remained in diligent seclusion, the progression of the Primordial Talisman Sect did not falter. On the contrary, its expansion surged, beginning to permeate the entirety of the Void Realm.Naturally, this expansion wasn't under the banner of a sect but rather through the guise of a formidable chamber of commerce.The Primordial Talisman Sect established a colossal enterprise known as the Mixed Element Commerce. Its various establishments have since unfurled across the Eastern Continent and the Northern Continent, though its presence notably avoids the Western Continent. This strategic omission is due to the Western Continent being the undisputed domain of the Demon Race, a territory the Primordial Talisman Sect currently has no intentions of encroaching upon.With the establishment of this grand chamber of commerce, they found themselves capable of distributing elixirs, potent magical treasures, and intricate talismans, all meticulously crafted by the Primordial Talisman Sect, to numerous locales. In return, these transactions yielded vast quantities of spirit stones and an abundance of vital spirit medicines.This reciprocal exchange allowed the Primordial Talisman Sect to amass immeasurable profits, functioning like a voracious entity that consumed the cultivation resources of the Void Realm.At this precise moment, within a bustling city on the Eastern Continent, we find ourselves at a key branch of the Mixed Element Commerce.This particular establishment, through years of dedicated development, has ascended to become the preeminent shop in the entire city. It draws an unending torrent of cultivators, eager to make purchases, thus amassing substantial wealth daily."Could this be the renowned Mixed Element Commerce? It truly lives up to its reputation as a place that possesses absolutely everything. From elixirs of the First Tier up to the Sixth Tier, every conceivable item is stocked, including highly sought-after concoctions like the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Golden Liquid Jade Returning Pill."Numerous cultivators, upon arriving before the Mixed Element Commerce, were utterly captivated by the dazzling spectacle of treasures displayed within the shop.The establishment is, by all accounts, a veritable emporium, offering an exhaustive range of goods.Typically, businesses within the Cultivation Realm adhere to strict specialization. For instance, shops dedicated to talismans would exclusively vend talismans, those specializing in elixirs would only offer elixirs, and shops focusing on magical treasures would deal solely in magical treasures.However, the Mixed Element Commerce defies these conventions, dealing in all categories of goods without discrimination.These cultivators, witnessing such a comprehensive establishment for the first time, found their perspectives broadened significantly."It is genuinely astonishing. Rumor has it that the Mixed Element Commerce wields immense power; as long as a treasure exists in this world, they can procure it. Of course, one must be prepared to offer a substantial price," one cultivator remarked."Indeed, even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and those of the Divinity Transformation level frequent the Mixed Element Commerce to acquire treasures. The depth to which this commerce has established itself is truly unfathomable," another added."More importantly, the quality and value of the products offered by Mixed Element Commerce are exceptional. Compared to other establishments, not only are the prices more reasonable, but the quality is also remarkably high. Recently, I have ceased patronizing other shops and exclusively frequent the Mixed Element Commerce."A great many cultivators engaged in animated discussions.It should be noted that approximately ten years prior, the Mixed Element Commerce was not widely recognized.However, upon its emergence, it proceeded to completely electrify the entire city, quickly becoming known to countless cultivators.The sheer variety of treasures available at the Mixed Element Commerce, coupled with their affordable prices, was simply unparalleled.Anyone possessing a modicum of sense would readily discern the superior choice.It can be unequivocally stated that with the advent of the Mixed Element Commerce, the market share for other businesses drastically diminished, drawing all the city's cultivators towards it. It was akin to a colossal Midas, extracting the wealth of innumerable cultivators."Yet, with the Mixed Element Commerce enjoying such phenomenal business, virtually reaping fortunes daily, are they not encroaching upon the territory of other businesses? Will other influential powers simply stand idly by and permit the Mixed Element Commerce to amass such strength?"Someone posed this question with evident curiosity.The sheer volume of spirit stones that the Mixed Element Commerce was accumulating daily struck them as astronomical.Such enormous prosperity was more than enough to incite envy in any faction.Ultimately, immense wealth has a tendency to provoke avarice in many quarters.After all, within the tumultuous currents of the Cultivation World, mere business acumen is not always sufficient protection. If one's ventures prove too successful, it could inadvertently invite grave peril.A single misstep could precipitate an utter catastrophe."Other powers certainly do not wish to witness the unchecked growth of the Mixed Element Commerce.""It is whispered that certain prominent families and sects once banded together, intending to launch an assault against the Mixed Element Commerce.""However, they were swiftly and decisively neutralized by the Mixed Element Commerce.""Indeed, even those formidable allied forces were effortlessly annihilated, vanishing without a trace.""Undoubtedly, this points to a power on par with the Divinity Transformation level, with its influence now spanning numerous cities across the Eastern Continent."Many cultivators spoke with palpable apprehension regarding the formidable Mixed Element Commerce.
Even within the current Eastern Continent, the might of Divinity Transformation Level forces remains truly dreadful.
Their power is comparable to that of other Divinity Transformation Level sects.
Ordinary powers simply cannot afford to offend them.
"Another Divinity Transformation Level force? What could be the reason for this?"
"Indeed, I recall there were only four Divinity Transformation sects in the Eastern Continent before. Now, why are there so many more Divinity Transformation forces appearing?"
"Heh, the times are indeed changing. With the resurgence of Spiritual Qi in the Void Realm, the discovery of ancient cave mansions, and countless Nascent Soul cultivators seizing opportunities, they have successfully advanced to the Divinity Transformation stage.
Consequently, numerous Divinity Transformation clans and sects have sprung up across the Eastern Continent. The era where only four major sects reigned supreme is long gone."
"It's no wonder that the Taiyi Sect, Dan Ding Sect, Hundred Flowers Valley, and Celestial Secret Mansion, these prominent Divinity Transformation sects, have recently adopted such a low-key approach, refraining from further expanding their influence. They likely perceive a growing threat too."
"This is truly an era where forces are flourishing; Divinity Transformation cultivators are no longer as paramount. Currently, any force that manages to produce a Void Refining cultivator will undoubtedly unify the Eastern Continent and establish itself as the premier Void Refining force."
"That is certainly true. If it's merely about Divinity Transformation cultivators, they are insufficient to dominate all sides. At the very least, advancing to the Void Refining level is essential to becoming an undisputed overlord."
