Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Decades later, Lingbao Island, Wanjiange.

There are thousands of rays of sunshine and thousands of auspicious colors. Dragons and tigers roar here, and fairy music curls up there.

Monks from all over the world came in waves and rushed into Lingbao Island to attend a grand meeting.

"Once in a century, the Lingbao Conference!"

"I wonder what new products are available this time?"

"I heard that a few decades ago, on Lingbao Island, the thunderbolt was frightened away, and it was suspected that it was the statue of the one who had overcome the tribulation."

"Master Xuanyuan Sword, has he entered the realm of calamity?"

"A calamity immortal will eventually be born in our South China Sea?"

"If this is true, then this conference will be an unprecedented event!"

"The name of Lingbao Ten Thousand Swords, not to mention the South China Sea, is like thunder in the Northern Territory and the Central Plains, and even the demon frontiers. This time when the master of Xuanyuan Sword is in trouble, he will prepare carefully and expand his momentum. I don't know how many rare treasures he will unveil." ”

"The sword master is a scholar of heaven and man. He is well-known in ancient and modern times. He is skilled in all kinds of arts and arts. He had the ability to refine top-grade immortal spirits thousands of years ago. Now that he has broken into the realm of calamity, he has made further progress. I am afraid he is not among the top-grade ones. Can all elixir arrays be refined?"

"It's not that simple. Realm cultivation is not linked to the attainments of various dharma. The cultivation level does not mean the eighth level of all dharma. However, there should be no shortage of miraculous elixirs and talismans among the top-grade immortals..."

There were rumors and discussions, but it was hard to stop the monks. Lingbao Island was already crowded with people.

Since the establishment of the Academy and the establishment of Nanhai a thousand years ago, Wanjiange has been doing its job.

Selling swords!

It’s not just about selling swords.

Alchemy talisman arrays, various dharma and arts, and various cultivation methods are all available in Wandao Academy.

They opened a large number of shops on Lingbao Island, operating alchemy arrays, various magic arts, and various industries. Not only were they high-quality and low-priced, their output was even more amazing. They directly monopolized the elixirs of the South China Sea through dumping. The market for medicine, talismans, magical instruments, etc. has become a veritable industrial and commercial giant.

Facing the dumping offensive of Wandao Academy, all the sects and sects were completely unable to resist, and all the markets under their banners collapsed one after another. The remaining ones were struggling to support themselves, and could not shake Lingbao Island's status as the "No. 1 Market in the South China Sea".

There is no way, this is a lack of core competitiveness.

Wandao Academy has a mature production system and management system, as well as many skilled and experienced craftsmen. No matter whether it is cost control or sales profit, it is unmatched by other sects.

For the same magic weapon, the production cost of Wandao Academy is one and the sales price is three. It can earn one to two profits. There is no problem with small profits but quick turnover.

It is different for other sects. Due to deficiencies in all aspects, most of their production costs are between two and three, and some even reach four to five. However, the sales price cannot be higher than the three customized by Wandao Academy. When it comes to small profits but quick turnover, it is an unreasonable expectation not to lose money. If you sell one item, you will lose one item.

There is no advantage of exclusive monopoly, and there is no competitiveness in terms of quality. Faced with the huge volume of Wandao Academy and the dumping of high quality and low price, how can various sects resist?

Unstoppable.

So they choose to join.

Today, the Nanhai Xiujie and Lingbaofang City are blooming everywhere. Chain operations have replaced the blooming situation. Various sects and sects have transformed themselves and invested in Wandao Academy to start a vigorous "part-time job" business.

If you can’t compete, then I’ll work for you and make money from you!

With this method, Wandao Academy, which integrated the South China Sea business community, followed suit and extended its palms to the Central Plains, impacting the entire Northern Territory market and causing unspeakable suffering to all the major holy places.

Facing the Ten Thousand Dao Academy, even the Holy Land Immortal Sect does not have many advantages. They can't stand their dumping strategy. Their market share is occupied, their living space is squeezed, and their days are getting worse every day.

If someone else were to do this, the major holy places would have to take action and send Immortal Sect disciples to the South China Sea to practice, slay demons and demons, fight swords in all directions, and use various excuses to eliminate this threat.

But this is not someone else, but Wandao Academy, three members of the Xiao family and two Mahayana students. The bloody examples are there. How can other holy places dare to repeat the same mistakes? They can only swallow their anger and grit their teeth to live their lives.

Once you bite this tooth, it will last a thousand years!

Wandao Academy continues to grow, and today it is no longer the number one city in the South China Sea, but the number one city in the Northern Territory. The original place of side gates and the place of Zuodao has become today's commercial center, let alone the Northern Territory. Demons from all the major holy places in the Central Plains, even the wilderness, the east abyss and the west barbarians came after hearing the news.

The Lingbao Conference, held for the first time in a century, has also become the first trading event in the Northern Territory. There are various exhibitions of rare treasures, auctions of exotic treasures, and top-grade immortal objects, panaceas, and talisman arrays launched by Wandao Academy. No.

Who can miss such an event?

"The centenary period has come again, and the Lingbao Conference will be held again!"

"It is a great honor for me to have all distinguished guests here!"

"Now please bring out the first item for auction - purple and green swords!"

In the venue, on the high platform, Feng Qingqing was dressed in colorful clothes and took on the important task of the auctioneer.

"As we all know, the master of my academy is a true swordsman who knows how to forge swords and refine weapons."

"The purple and green swords, the name of the purple sword is Ziying, and the name of the green sword is Qingsuo. They are my lord's further works based on the twin swords of heaven and thunder. They are also similar to the thunder flames of heaven and earth. They can activate the power of thunder from heaven and earth. It also has the power of yin and yang to create magic, which can help Heavenly Sword practice and even dispel thunder catastrophes."

"this……!"

Before Feng Qingqing finished speaking, there was an uproar in the hall.

"It's actually a treasure that transforms thunder?"

"Zi Ying Qing Suo, thunder flames from the sky?"

"Then Master Xuanyuan Sword, has he gone one step further?"

"Sure enough, there must be a reason for the groundless rumors. This person has really entered the realm of calamity!"

"Purple Ying Qing Suo, double blades of the Heavenly Sword, and the ability to turn into thunder!"

"Such a valuable treasure, a weapon for overcoming tribulation, is it worth auctioning?"

"Then Li Xuanyuan has also entered the Tribulation Realm, doesn't he need this treasure?"

"The True Immortal is really arrogant, he doesn't even take the Nine Heavenly Gate seriously."

"That may not be the case. A person who defies the heavens will have his own tribulation. Maybe these purple and green swords are of little help to him, so he exchanges them for more valuable treasures."

"Such a valuable weapon at the beginning, this Wandao Academy is really rich, but I don't know if anyone can afford it."

Looking at the purple and green swords on display on the stage, the crowd was agitated, but soon calmed down.

Feng Qingqing's expression remained unchanged, and she continued, "The Purple Ying and Green Rope are both top-grade immortal artifacts. The combination of the two swords is even more top-grade, and is priceless. Therefore, they are not auctioned with spiritual stones and jade, but only with spiritual materials and immortals. The starting price is one ninth-grade spiritual object, and each bid cannot be less than one eighth-grade spiritual object!"

"As long as it meets the standards, there is no limit to the type of spiritual object!"

"The auction begins now!"

Feng Qingqing finished speaking and looked at the crowd.

"..."

"..."

"..."

The audience was silent, and there was no sound of bidding for a long time.

"This..."

"Ninth-grade spiritual object?"

"Is it the starting price?"

"This is too much!"

"The top-grade immortal weapon is only the seventh-grade. Even if the two swords are combined into one, which is comparable to the best, it is only the eighth-grade. Why is it auctioned as a ninth-grade spiritual object?"

"Although the finished immortal weapon is more valuable than the unfinished spiritual material, this is too much higher."

"Ninth-grade and eighth-grade, one-grade difference, is the difference between immortals and mortals!"

"Is it going to fail at the beginning?"

"What's wrong with the ninth-grade? Are these purple and green twin swords not worthy of a ninth-grade spiritual object? It's just that I don't have such wealth, otherwise I would have bought it no matter what. This is a treasure of the double-edged sword of heaven and the thunder-transforming treasure!"

The audience was silent, and the atmosphere was even more inexplicable.

It was like this for an unknown period of time before a voice sounded.

"Ninth-grade spiritual object, a piece of Fusang Wujin wood!"

After that, a golden light flew out and fell directly onto the stage, turning into a piece of sacred wood.

Feng Qingqing glanced at it and nodded: "Fusang Wujin Wood, a ninth-level fire spiritual object, guest No. 13 offers this price, who else is bidding?"

"Fusang Wujin Wood?"

"This..."

Looking at the sacred wood on the stage, everyone was shocked, turned around to look at the bidder, and found that it was an old man in black.

The old man in black had an ordinary appearance and no aura. He looked ordinary, but everyone did not dare to underestimate him.

After all, this was a person who could produce ninth-level spiritual materials.

This person was either the master of the immortal sect or...

"The old monster in the robbery realm!"

"Which robbery immortal?"

"The ancestor of the Northern Domain Immortal Sect and the Central Plains Holy Land?"

"Fusang Wujin Wood, could it be... the Great Sun Immortal Sect?"

Everyone was in doubt, but they did not dare to say anything, so they could only watch carefully.

Although the atmosphere in the South Sea has been cleaned up since the establishment of the Academy, the evil cultivators who engaged in plundering were either exterminated or changed their appearance early and joined other sects, and no longer dared to engage in this high-risk and high-return business, and no one dared to make trouble at the Lingbao Conference held once every century.

But...

Things are unpredictable, there are always exceptions!

A calamity realm immortal god, an old monster, who knows what kind of temper he has. If you make a mistake and anger him, you will die without knowing how.

So, it is better to keep silent.

Everyone was nervous and said nothing.

The old man in black was also as steady as a mountain, as if he had already won the victory, just waiting for the treasure to fall into his pocket.

This purple and green double sword is indeed a ninth-level spiritual object, and even a lot more.

After all, this is a Heavenly Sword weapon, and it has the power of Yin and Yang, and can reduce the power of thunder tribulation. Although it is not as attractive as an immortal treasure, it is definitely better than the general top-grade immortal weapon. It is definitely worth exchanging it for a ninth-level spiritual object.

But it is only a ninth-level spiritual object, and there will be no more price increase.

It is not that the Purple and Green Swords do not have this value, but that they cannot help the enemy!

Everyone can see that this spiritual treasure conference is a profit-making conference for the Wandao Academy.

In recent years, the Wandao Academy has developed rapidly, using the spiritual treasure conference and other means to seize a large amount of resources, and squeeze the living space of the major holy places, weaken others, strengthen itself, and have a domineering momentum.

How can the major holy places let it develop and let it continue to grow and eventually swallow up the Northern Territory?

Therefore, restriction and suppression are inevitable. Even if it cannot be done directly, it must be curbed from the side.

The purple and green swords are also the same. A ninth-level spiritual object is enough. How can the major holy places kill each other and let him take advantage of it...

"Ninth-level spiritual object, one square of ancient star iron!"

Before he could decide, he heard a sound, and a starlight flew onto the stage and turned into a square of star iron.

Feng Qingqing glanced and nodded: "Ninth-level spiritual object, ancient star iron, one square can be made into two pieces, which is considered two ninth-level spiritual objects. Who else is bidding?"

"Hmm!?"

The old man in black looked back and saw that the bidder was wearing a hat and gauze to cover his face and not reveal his identity. His aura was even more restrained, and there was no clue.

This kind of behavior...

"Daoyou, good hand!"

The old man in black snorted coldly, and his words were pointed.

However...

"This guest, watch your words and deeds!"

As soon as the old man in black finished speaking, a cold voice was heard on the stage. Feng Qingqing's eyes were sharp and shot at him: "The academy has laws, and the spiritual treasure has rules. No matter who dares to use power to pressure others, coerce and bribe, and destroy the laws of our academy and the rules of spiritual treasures, he will be kicked out at the least, and executed on the spot at the worst!"

"..."

"..."

"..."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent.

The old man in black said nothing, his face was full of clouds, as if he was about to thunder and rage.

Seeing this, everyone was even more frightened, and they all became birds with their heads huddled, not daring to say a word.

The academy has laws, and the spiritual treasure has rules, it is true.

The academy has been established for a thousand years. The ten major conferences before and after, as well as various small conferences, have implemented this concept. Not to mention those bold robbers who started robbing after the meeting, even the sect monks who habitually made small moves at the meeting, have learned a bloody lesson, and I don’t know how many people have been killed.

But...

This is a robbery immortal, this is a robbery immortal!

The robbery immortal, the ancestor of the holy land, just said a few words, even if there is a hidden needle in the words, and there is a suspicion of using power to suppress others, you can't scold like this.

What's the difference between this and slapping someone in the face?

How can a robbery immortal tolerate such anger...

"Manager Feng misunderstood."

The old man in black shook his head, his face full of gloomy clouds: "I just sighed when I said this, I have no other intention, and I don't have the intention to suppress others!"

After saying that, he put his hands up, and another golden light flew onto the stage: "Fusang Wujinmu - three pieces!"

"This..."

Seeing this scene, everyone's expression became weird.

"You actually endured it?"

"Isn't it said that all the people of the Sun Immortal Sect are as hot-tempered as fire?"

"A dignified Tribulation Immortal, the ancestor of the Holy Land, was scolded by a woman in public, but he could still endure it, and even smiled to ease the situation?"

"Is this... because he is afraid of the Xuanyuan Sword Master?"

"The Wandao Academy has such a deterrent, and the Tribulation Immortal Ancestor has to swallow his anger?"

"Perhaps he is concerned about the heavenly tribulation and dares not deepen the cause and effect."

"If you are concerned about the heavenly tribulation, just leave with a wave of your sleeves, why do you have to greet him with such a smile?"

"The major holy places are very afraid of that person!"

Everyone's eyes met, although no words were spoken, but the implication was clear.

Such an atmosphere and such a look made the old man in black even more angry, but he dared not vent and could only suppress it.

Thousands of years ago, in the battle in the South China Sea, Li Xuanyuan set up the Five Elements Formation, which not only swept away the Mahayana elders of the major holy places, but also scared away a group of Tribulation Immortals.

At that time, his cultivation was only at the Mahayana stage.

Now that he has entered the Tribulation Realm, how much combat power will he have?

I am only at the third Tribulation stage, how can I fight him on his home turf just for a momentary impulse?

Li Xuanyuan is a piece of meat on the chopping block, and he is a newly promoted Tribulation Immortal, so he doesn't have many concerns about cause and effect. Fighting him to death, there will be no benefit if he wins, but if he loses, he will lose everything.

A wise man does not do it, a wise man does not do it!
