I rely on length to cultivate immortality
Chapter 296 The Secret of the Origin
Danxiang Tower is located in a prime location in Xianchen Zongfang City. The location is great.
So even though Zhao Yuansi didn't put much effort into running the business, and even in Li Xiuchang's eyes, Danxiang Tower was unprofessional in some aspects, he still had no worries about business.
Danxiang Building is definitely a high-quality asset, the kind that makes money while lying down.
Even if Zhao Yuansi is too lazy to run it, he can still rent it out and collect rent.
Zhao Yuansi explained: "There are many reasons. Firstly, the shopkeeper Zhao Hai does not have a long life, and our clan is not prosperous, so it is troublesome to find a trustworthy shopkeeper;
"Secondly, now that I have made a breakthrough in my cultivation and improved my alchemy, there are too many places where I need to use spirit stones. Selling the shop can make me have more money."
Although this opportunity was rare, Li Xiuchang still said: "Master wants to recruit a new shopkeeper. Although it is troublesome, he should be able to find one. If it doesn't work out, I will lend you Xiao Zhu. This girl is smart and more than capable of being a shopkeeper.
"As for the spiritual stones, master, if you are short of any number, just ask!"
Zhao Yuansi smiled and waved his hand: "It's enough that you have this heart. I haven't finished yet. There is another crucial reason. With the improvement of my cultivation and alchemy, the sect also has some new ideas for me. arrange."
"Master is going to be promoted?"
Li Xiuchang understood that he was about to be promoted!
What is the next step for the outer sect elders?
There is actually not much room for improvement in level.
The elders of the outer sect and the elders of the inner sect are on the same level, and Zhao Yuansi's cultivation level is not enough to serve as an elder of the inner sect.
The Supreme Elder is even more out of reach.
Therefore, it is most likely a job adjustment, which means that the power in his hands has become greater.
They are both elders, but there is actually a huge gap in power and status.
Some elders only have a name and are not responsible for specific affairs.
For example, those elders who were specially recruited from among the ascended ones only had the title of elder, but in fact they were still the objects of observation and surveillance.
Zhao Yuansi nodded and said confidently: "That's right. From now on, the merchants in Zongmenfang City will be managed by me."
Li Xiuchang's eyes widened... This is a fat job!
No wonder Old Zhao looks down on a mere Danxiang Building.
Of course, there is a big element of avoiding suspicion.
As the manager of a merchant in Fangshi, he still owns a shop in Fangshi. It would not be nice to talk about it, and it is inevitable that others will gossip about him.
This is probably the main reason why Zhao Yuansi wants to sell Danxiang Building.
Otherwise, it would not be difficult for Zhao Yuansi to solve it with manpower and spiritual stones.
Li Xiuchang was happy, this was also a good thing for him.
From now on, he also walked sideways in Xianchen Zongfang City. There was someone above his head. Who dared to offend him?
"Congratulations, Master!" Li Xiuchang congratulated him repeatedly, no longer refusing, and decided to take down Danxiang Tower.
In fact, Li Xiuchang was not determined to win Danxiang Tower. Since becoming wealthy, he has become less enthusiastic about business.
No matter how many spiritual stones Danxianglou earns, it is just a number to him.
Even for the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce, Li Xiuchang now regards it more as a tool in his hands. He does not attach much importance to the profitability of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce. Instead, he cares more about the various channels and relationships of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce.
It's just that Danxianglou's piece of fat has been brought to his mouth, and Li Xiuchang has no reason to refuse.
But Li Xiuchang still asked out of curiosity: "Why did master want to transfer Danxiang Tower to me?"
There are a lot of people who want Danxiang Tower. As long as Zhao Yuansi spreads the word, there will definitely be a bunch of people rushing to deliver the spiritual stone.
Even though he has a master-disciple relationship with Zhao Yuansi, Zhao Yuansi is not just his disciple. Other brothers and sisters became disciples earlier than him, and their friendship with Zhao Yuansi is also deeper.
Zhao Yuansi did not mince words, and said directly: "Anyone who buys from a profitable store like Danxianglou will make money. Instead of taking advantage of others, of course we must give priority to our own people.
"Of course there is another important reason. Among my disciples, I looked at it and found that you are the only one who can afford it. None of your senior brothers and sisters have money like you."
Li Xiuchang couldn't help but laugh, this was indeed the truth.
Zhao Yuansi deliberately made a serious face and said: "We, masters and disciples, also have to settle accounts clearly. The price of Danxiang Tower is not cheap. I don't know if you can afford it."
Li Xiuchang pretended to be pitiful and said: "Master, please show mercy."
Zhao Yuansi shook his head and smiled, and took out a jade slip: "Here is a list of all the goods in Danxiang Building. They are all given to you at cost. These goods alone are worth tens of millions of spiritual stones. If you are tight on money, you can pay for the goods." You can owe it first and then give it to me after it is sold.
"The other thing is the Danxiang Building store. I didn't spend much spirit stones on it at the time, but according to the current market price, it should be worth fifty thousand...high-grade spirit stones!"
After speaking, Zhao Yuansi observed Li Xiuchang's reaction.
Fifty thousand high-grade spiritual stones may not sound like much, but if converted into low-grade spiritual stones, it would be 500 million!
Zhao Yuansi knew that the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce was very profitable, but it would be very difficult for him to spend 500 million spirit stones at once.
He was ready to let Li Xiuchang pay in installments.
Li Xiuchang made an estimate in his mind. Because he had thought about buying a store before, he had a good idea of the store prices in Xianchen Zongfang City.
Most of the shops in Fang City are owned by the sect and cannot be bought or sold, only rented.
There are only a handful of shops that can buy and sell them, and none of them are willing to sell them.
It is marketable but priceless.
Therefore, the so-called market price cannot buy a store at all, and the actual transaction price will definitely be much higher than the market price.
Zhao Yuansi gave this price because of the affection between master and apprentice.
"The store has 500 million spirit stones, plus the goods in the store, how about rounding off and counting it to 600 million spirit stones." Li Xiuchang discussed.
Zhao Yuansi was stunned. He originally thought that Li Xiuchang would be in trouble, but who would have thought that Li Xiuchang would not change his expression and even rounded off the opposite.
This made him hold back the "installment payment" that was on his lips.
Is the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce really making money like this?
In fact, Li Xiuchang's own wealth is much more than that of the Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce. Just the robbing of the treasure house of the Flame Blood Demon Sect before made him rich.
600 million spirit stones, just a drop in the bucket.
Li Xiuchang immediately counted the 600 million spirit stones, put them into a storage bag, and handed them directly to Zhao Yuansi.
No spirit contract was signed.
This trust made Zhao Yuansi very comfortable, and he immediately applied to the sect to transfer Danxianglou to Li Xiuchang.
...
Danxianglou was soon handed over to Li Xiuchang.
Li Xiuchang asked Xiao Zhu to learn from the former shopkeeper Zhao for two days, and then he took over the position of shopkeeper smoothly.
There are several other assistants in the store, all of whom are old employees of Danxianglou and are skilled in business.
After Li Xiuchang took over Danxianglou, although there were many things he wanted to change, he even wanted to change the name of "Danxianglou".
But in the end, he did not change anything, and everything remained the same.
Zhao Yuansi has been running Danxianglou for hundreds of years and has long had feelings for this place. If he changed the name and signboard of the store as soon as he took over, or even stopped selling elixirs in the future, Zhao Yuansi would feel uncomfortable even if he didn't say it.
Simply continue to operate the business as usual for a while, and let the old customers of Danxianglou get familiar with the new shopkeeper.
Danxianglou has been operating for many years and has accumulated a lot of regular customers.
If the shopkeeper and the store name are changed all at once, it is equivalent to completely changing the store, and many regular customers will inevitably be lost.
Now the store is still the same store, but the shopkeeper has changed, so the impact is not great.
However, there is a problem that needs to be solved now, that is, the supply of Danxianglou.
Danxianglou mainly sells elixirs, and also cooperates with many guest alchemists.
There are three main sources of elixirs on weekdays.
The first is that the elixirs made by guest alchemists are sold to Danxianglou, or placed on consignment at Danxianglou;
The second is to collect elixirs from customers;
The third is that Zhao Yuansi sells the elixirs he made in his daily practice at Danxianglou.
But now Danxianglou is no longer Zhao Yuansi's industry, and this third channel will almost be cut off in the future.
High-level elixirs are hard to find. In the past, the main source of high-level elixirs for Danxianglou was Zhao Yuansi.
As for those guest alchemists, they are basically second- and third-level alchemists, and it is unrealistic to expect them to provide high-level elixirs.
Li Xiuchang wanted to do it himself, but his alchemy skills were only second-level.
He could only try to find some high-level alchemists in the sect to cooperate with.
But the alchemists above the fifth level in the sect are all in high positions, and they have no shortage of resource channels and long-term cooperation channels. Cooperation cannot be achieved in a short time.
Li Xiuchang went to Danxianglou for an inspection and saw that there were still a large number of miscellaneous treasures on the shelves on the first floor, including all kinds of spiritual plants and magic tools.
He noticed this phenomenon when he first came to Danxianglou that year, and he felt that this was not good at the time.
A store specializing in elixirs also sells some miscellaneous things on the first floor, trying to make money from everything, which will only give people a feeling of unprofessionalism.
But now the supply of elixirs has not been solved, Li Xiuchang simply increased the number of miscellaneous treasures on the first floor.
He sold all the ordinary miscellaneous treasures on the first floor to the nearby Four Immortals Chamber of Commerce at cost price, and put some treasures he produced on weekdays on the shelves on the first floor.
There are spiritual plants he planted himself, magic tools and magic treasures he refined, spiritual dishes he made, fairy wine he brewed, talismans he drew, array flags and array plates he made...
These works of Li Xiuchang's practice have high and low grades, but the common point is that they are very unique!
Unlike those common goods sold outside, Li Xiuchang's products may not be fine products, but they must be strange products.
The magic weapons he refined have strange effects.
The fairy wine he brewed can be used as a weapon.
The array flags he made are not used to set up arrays, but are specially used to break arrays.
In short, only he sells these strange things, and there is no competitor.
Li Xiuchang came to the gate of Danxianglou and saw that both sides of the gate were empty, which always felt a bit empty.
"I feel that there should be two big stone lions on both sides."
Li Xiuchang thought about it and took out two puppets from his storage bag.
He no longer needs these two fourth-level puppets, so he just uses them to decorate the Danxiang Building.
He placed the two puppets on both sides of the gate. The fourth-level puppets were covered with armor and looked very imposing, which made the gate of Danxiang Building look much more upscale.
…
Li Xiuchang stayed in Donggeng District for another two months of hard training. Finally, he couldn't stand Wenwen's urging all day and planned to go to the Pure Land Realm to get help from Wenwen.
In two months, although Li Xiuchang made great progress in all aspects, he didn't achieve any breakthroughs.
But Jinjiao finally promoted to the fifth level!
After entering the ranks of the fifth-level monsters, it goes without saying that the road that Jinjiao has to take is definitely the "defense road".
At present, Jinjiao's defense ability is so strong that Li Xiuchang can't even break Jinjiao's defense without using some trump cards.
This exaggerated defense ability makes Jinjiao invincible among the same level, and even opponents who are one level higher than it can't do anything to it.
Golden Horn has just broken through to the fifth level, and Li Xiuchang has already arranged various natal spiritual treasures for it as snacks.
However, the natal magic weapon may be easy to acquire, but the number of natal spiritual treasures is not that large.
Fortunately, Li Xiuchang was rich and powerful. If his natal spiritual treasure was not enough, he could use various sixth-level metal materials to make up for it. Most people couldn't afford the golden horn made like this.
In two months, a lot of changes have taken place in Danxiang Tower.
As a long-established store, Danxianglou is well-known, but there has been little discussion in the past.
Everyone has become accustomed to the existence of such a store. It has remained the same for hundreds of years, and nothing has changed. It always sells the same things.
But Li Xiuchang suddenly put a bunch of fresh products on the shelves of Danxianglou, suddenly injecting new vitality into the centuries-old Danxianglou.
Various treasures with strange and weird functions have broken everyone's stereotypes about various treasures, and people who have used them have discovered that they are really useful!
As a result, people started a heated discussion around these products.
"This fool's formation-breaking flag is so easy to use! I don't understand formations at all. As long as this formation flag is inserted into a formation below level three, it will break the formation immediately!"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that I could buy the extinct root-root grass in Danxianglou!"
"I used elixir fire to refine the mysterious jade frozen soil that had not been refined for half a year. Unexpectedly, I bought a pot of Danxianglou's immortal brew and used it as fuel. It was refined in a few minutes!"
"Everyone, go and take a look. Each of the new treasures in Danxiang Tower is more useful than the last. Unfortunately, I don't have enough spiritual stones..."
"Except for the poor elixirs, everything else in Danxiang Tower is very good now!"
"Haha, the least worth buying in Danxiang Tower is the elixirs."
"I was a step too late. All the treasures on the first floor were robbed. Alas!"
A bunch of customers rushed into Danxiang Building after hearing the news, only to find that the shelves on the first floor were empty and out of stock.
"Shopkeeper, when will the stock be replenished?"
Xiao Zhu apologized: "Please wait patiently. Interested customers can pay a deposit first. Once the goods are replenished, I will notify you as soon as possible."
Some people are still hesitating, while others are already rushing to pay.
Anyone with a quick mind can see that the supply of various treasures in Danxiang Tower exceeds demand. As long as you buy them, you can make a profit by reselling them.
Li Xiuchang also didn't expect that Danxiang Tower would spawn a group of scalpers in the world of immortality.
The blood diamond clone is working overtime to practice his skills, and he believes that he will be able to deliver the goods to Danxianglou soon, while Li Xiuchang's true body has already left the Immortal Yin Realm.
He reached the Dark Heaven Realm through the teleportation array, then transited through the Dark Heaven Realm and arrived at the Pure Land Realm.
The two great masters, Lotus and Far Kong, are now traveling around the heavens with a group of eminent Buddhist monks. The one who received Li Xiuchang was Master Huiren.
"Donor Li, we meet again." Huiren put his hands together and smiled.
"Master, I'm here this time..." Li Xiuchang was about to get down to business, but was interrupted by Huiren.
Huiren said: "Donor Li, please come with me and show you something."
Li Xiuchang's curiosity was aroused, and he put aside stable matters for the time being and followed Huiren to the monk's room in Pure Land Temple.
"This is my place."
Huiren took Li Xiuchang directly to his bedroom.
A straw mat was spread on the floor inside the house, and the floor tiles around the straw mat were knocked away, exposing the black earth.
What caught Li Xiuchang's attention was a circle of grass growing close to the ground on the land around the straw mat.
"Lying on the grass!"
Li Xiuchang couldn't believe it: "Master, you guys have planted grass? How did you do it?"
Li Xiuchang had both saplings and seeds of lying grass on his hands, but he couldn't cultivate them successfully.
Huiren said with a smile: "I sleep on that straw mat every day and plant the sleeping grass around the straw mat, and the seeds will naturally germinate and the seedlings will grow."
It's that simple?
But that's right. It is said that the sleeping grass can only grow in the place where the true Buddha sleeps soundly. Huiren is the true Buddha!
Huiren's strength should be second only to Lotus and Lotus in the Pure Land. He belongs to the second echelon and has already become a Buddha.
It's a pity that Li Xiuchang can't come back.
He can't borrow a Buddha from the Pure Land Realm just to plant sleeping grass, right?
He can only wait until he reaches the true Buddha realm with his own Buddhist body training methods, and then he can lie down and plant grass.
"Thank you for bringing the seeds of the sleeping grass. With this sleeping grass, our strength in the Pure Land world will definitely be further improved in the future!" Master Huiren sincerely thanked him.
"Master, you don't have to be polite. I came here this time because I have something to trouble you."
"Donor Li just said it doesn't matter."
"I have a turtle friend..."
"Could Donor Li be talking about Donor Chen Changsheng?" Huiren asked doubtfully.
"Ahem, no, I'm not talking about a nickname, it's a real turtle, a turtle demon!" Li Xiuchang corrected, "It is now trapped in a world of demonic cultivators. There are too many demonic cultivators there and it is in urgent need of reinforcements."
Huiren's expression was solemn: "The Demonic Cultivation World? Is it the same as the Dark Heaven Realm? Then I'm afraid I have to wait until my master and Uncle Fahua come back before we can deal with them with confidence."
"That's not necessary. That world is one level lower than the Dark Heaven Realm, and its strength is far inferior to that of the Dark Heaven Realm. The main reason is that the number of demon cultivators is huge. My turtle friend cannot deal with it alone. It is enough for the master to send a few eminent monks there at will."
After hearing what Li Xiuchang said, Huiren nodded: "It is my Buddhist duty to kill demons. Donor Li told me the location of the world, and I immediately started to make arrangements."
Li Xiuchang handed over the jade slip with the route given by Wen Wen to Huiren.
"This is the route from the Immortal Shade Realm. If you start from the Dark Heaven Realm, you will need to explore the specific route yourself."
Hui Ren nodded and accepted the jade slip, and asked: "Does Master Li want to go with us?"
Li Xiuchang shook his head: "I won't go."
Although he had promised Wenwen at first that he would go with the monks from the Pure Land Realm to help.
But considering that Senior Brother Chen Changsheng had other arrangements for Wenwen later, he would not go.
This time he came to the Pure Land Realm, he was going to look around again to see if he could find a trial site that had not been discovered before.
Hui Ren arranged a guest room for Li Xiuchang, and then arranged for someone to go to the Divine Turtle Realm.
Li Xiuchang was alone in the room, holding a map of the Pure Land Realm, thinking about where to find the trial site.
The last trial site was inside the reclining Buddha stone statue in the Zen Heart Realm.
At present, it can be confirmed that the owner of the huge wooden fish should have left the trial site inside the reclining Buddha stone statue.
Although the wooden fish owner has never shown his face, he trapped Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi and Senior Brother Motu with a wooden fish in Wanshan Realm, which shows his strength.
From this, it can be inferred that the trial place in the Pure Land Realm was probably left by the wooden fish owner.
"But the wooden fish owner asked me to come to the Pure Land Realm a hundred years later, and it has been less than five years now."
"Maybe the time has not come yet, and I can't find the trial place at all..."
"But... the Pure Land Realm is completely closed. Since the wooden fish owner knows the existence of the Pure Land Realm, maybe he got out of the Pure Land Realm, but how did he get out?"
"In addition, the Pure Land Realm is such a closed world, how can he expect all the trial participants to find it?"
Li Xiuchang still has many doubts in his heart.
He relied on Senior Brother Gui's divination and Senior Brother Chen Changsheng's clone to find the Pure Land Realm.
How should other trial participants find it?
Li Xiuchang couldn't figure it out.
He put away the map and prepared to go to the Pure Land Realm to wander around tomorrow.
This time, only Li Xiuchang's main body went out, and his two clones remained in Donggeng District to practice skills and enlightenment.
His main body also made full use of all the time to practice.
Li Xiuchang's Dharma image appeared behind him and entered the origin world.
This was his first time to enter the origin world in another world.
Although it is said that there is no difference.
No matter which level of the world, the entire Xiuxian world, hundreds of small worlds, share the same origin world.
Li Xiuchang's entry into the origin world this time was indeed the same, no different from the past.
It's just that as soon as he came in this time, he saw a Buddha statue composed of countless light spots not far away...
"The origin of Buddhism?"
Li Xiuchang had entered the origin world many times before and after, but it was the first time that he saw the origin of Buddhism as soon as he came in.
"Is it related to my location?"
"Entering the origin world from the Pure Land will get closer to the origin of Buddhism?"
Whether it is because of this reason or not, it doesn't make much difference.
If you are really a Buddhist, it's just a thought to find the origin of Buddhism in the vast origin world.
The hard part is to find those great ways that have no comprehension.
Li Xiuchang has wandered around the origin world a lot, but he has never seen some unpopular great ways.
Since he has come across the origin of Buddhism, Li Xiuchang has to take a closer look.
Buddhism is actually a general term for a kind of great way, which also includes various branches of the great way.
Just like swordsmanship, there are also countless schools of thought.
But both are man-made great ways, but swordsmanship does not have such a huge structure as Buddhism.
While there are countless branches in swordsmanship, it also belongs to a school of the entire immortal way.
The immortal way itself does not have a specific origin, but is integrated into countless great origins, and even into the natural way.
For example, those who practice thunder magic and five elements, these people are all practicing the immortal way.
In the future, when Li Xiuchang's equal way is born, he will also belong to the immortal way cultivator.
Sword cultivation is just a branch of the immortal way.
But Buddhism, as a man-made great way, is obviously more ambitious, and its goal is to develop into a Taoist tradition that embraces everything like the immortal way.
However, it is still far from being achieved.
The origin of Buddhism and Taoism is still gathered in one place. From a distance, it looks like a Buddha, but from a close distance, there are countless branches of Buddhism and Taoism.
When this Buddha spreads out one day, countless branches inside it will take root in the origin world and become independent avenues. Only then will Buddhism and Taoism be qualified to be compared with the immortal way.
Li Xiuchang does not practice Buddhism and Taoism, but it does not prevent him from observing Buddhism and Taoism.
Theoretically, when his Buddhist body training method reaches the sixth level, he should also comprehend his own avenue.
Normal Buddhist practitioners should choose one path to comprehend and practice in this huge Buddhist path.
But Li Xiuchang only practices Buddhism, not the Buddha's heart, and has no understanding of this huge Buddhist path.
Suddenly, he was attracted by a certain part of the origin of Buddhism and Taoism in front of him.
He felt something in his heart, and put his consciousness into it. He found that this was a branch of Buddhism and Taoism about the "Path of All Living Beings". The concept includes some contents such as saving all living beings and equality of all living beings, which resonated with his equality path.
Li Xiuchang is always open-minded in learning and understanding. He doesn't practice Buddhism, but that doesn't stop him from learning from others!
Learn the good things from others and discard the bad things.
But just as he was trying to understand, a thought came from the origin of Buddhism and Taoism into his consciousness, allowing him to learn some information.
"The information about the trial ground is hidden in the origin of Buddhism and Taoism?"
