I'm in Shrouding the Heavens Practicing Eternal Life

With the Saint's decree and the promise of immense profits, the efficiency was maximized, and the Dao Alliance was established.

Like a spring breeze overnight, pear blossoms bloomed on thousands of trees. Dao Halls, big and small, seemed to spring up overnight. After all, with profits involved, the sooner a Dao Hall opened, the sooner the Origin Heaven Sect's sponsorship would arrive. They calculated it monthly; an extra month meant a lot of pills! They couldn't afford to be careless.

Dao Halls were divided into three levels. Those established by Supreme Dao forces were called Emperor-level Dao Halls, those by Great Sects were called Saint-level Dao Halls, and those by ordinary small forces had no prefix.

This event was sudden, and many people hadn't heard any rumors beforehand. A behemoth thus rose from the ground in the Northern Dipper Territory, spreading everywhere.

Those who knew some inside information understood the scale of this undertaking. So many Dao Halls, big and small, the rewards they prepared, what they contributed were just some unique treasures and secret techniques. The real bulk was the sponsorship from the Origin Heaven Sect, vast amounts of pills, used both to cultivate disciples guarding the Dao Halls and as rewards for successful challengers!

Luo Mo didn't care.

With a total of just over four hundred Dao Hall alliances, even if he had to pay them sponsorship fees, plus the expenses of hosting the Dao Alliance Grand Meet, the annual expenditure of Pure Yang Pills was less than ten billion. To him, it was just a small sum.

But such a small sum could be exchanged for luck that would accelerate his cultivation. For Luo Mo, it was a surefire profitable deal.

The few major forces that joined the alliance could interject a couple of sentences during the meeting discussions, but the representatives of those small sects, even those Saint-created Great Sect Dao Halls, couldn't get a word in edgewise.

Frankly, they were just there to freeload on the Origin Heaven Sect's sponsorship, with no right to speak.

During the meeting, Luo Mo, the Sect Master of the Origin Heaven Sect, and Jiang Li, the Holy Master of the Jade Radiance Holy Land, after a series of discussions, finally secured the location for the first Dao Alliance Grand Meet to be held at the Origin Heaven Sect.

This was also approved by the other Emperor-level Dao Halls through voting, because everyone felt that the Origin Heaven Sect was the biggest investor, and this first Grand Meet should be hosted by the Origin Heaven Sect.

Even though Jade Radiance was willing to offer one of the Nine Secrets as a prize, everyone strongly persuaded them to postpone it to the second Grand Meet. After much persuasion, the Jade Radiance Holy Master, Jiang Li, finally agreed.

The two incarnations acted with great seriousness, and finally determined that the first Dao Alliance Grand Meet would be held at the Origin Heaven Sect, and the second Dao Alliance Grand Meet would be held at the Jade Radiance Holy Land.

The two Grand Meets were five years apart, and five groups were set up according to realm, divided according to different cultivation levels. The cultivation limit for the Immortal Platform Mystery Realm group was the Great Power realm, and those who had severed the Dao and become Kings were not allowed to participate.

At the same time, the championship reward for the first Dao Alliance Grand Meet was a million Pure Yang Pills, five groups, that's five million.

Hearing this number, many Dao Hall representatives were envious.

Although the Nine Secrets of Jade Radiance were also very tempting, they wanted the million Pure Yang Pills even more!

At this moment, they wished they could participate themselves!

According to the cultivation requirements, they hadn't exceeded the limit, but considering their old bones and legs, they probably couldn't beat those young people, so forget it.

The Dao Alliance Grand Meet was officially named the Dao Alliance Martial Arts Grand Meet, and would be officially held in one year. Within one year, Dao Hall challenges would begin. To participate in the Martial Arts Grand Meet, one must collect enough Dao Hall badges to be eligible.

The news spread, and the Northern Dipper Territory was in an uproar.

On the list that spread throughout the Northern Dipper Territory, the rewards of each Dao Hall were already coveted, and when everyone saw the championship reward of the Martial Arts Grand Meet, their eyes widened—

A million Pure Yang Pills!

That's not Core Formation Pills, but Pure Yang Pills, a full million!

You should know that in the free trading market of the Grand Firmament Realm, some people are willing to pay a high price of five hundred Core Formation Pills to buy one Pure Yang Pill. It is said that a Pure Yang Pill is only worth three hundred Core Formation Pills, but there is no market for it, so the price has increased by nearly double, and there is still a tendency to continue to rise. Many Great Power realm experts need Pure Yang Pills and are buying them at a high price.

Central Emperor Xiang Yufei and Southern Demon Qi Lin both looked regretful.

If this news had come out earlier, before they had severed the Dao, they would definitely have participated!

That's a million Pure Yang Pills, such a huge fortune, they couldn't ignore it!

But it was too late, they had already severed the Dao, and according to the rules, they couldn't participate in the Martial Arts Grand Meet.

But this time, he met the standards, so he wanted to participate!

"Um..."

Qing Pu scratched his bald head with some distress.

This little monk was transformed from the Bodhi Divine Medicine. Because he specialized in enlightenment, his cultivation progress was extremely fast, surpassing his senior brothers and sisters who transformed earlier.

But in this way, if he wanted to participate, he would have to meet his Uncle-Master Ye Fan.

It wasn't that he lacked confidence, but that Uncle-Master Ye Fan's Undying Golden Body was extremely hard, and his attacks were ruthless and dark, making him difficult to deal with, and his cultivation was also a bit higher than his.

"Senior Sister Hongyi, is there any way to beat Uncle-Master Ye in a year?"

Phoenix Hongyi had grown from the little girl she was into a fourteen-year-old girl, much more stable than before. Hearing the question from her junior brother Qing Pu, she replied: "We are not humans, do you still want to participate? Don't cause trouble for Master."

"... Oh."

For a time, the entire Northern Dipper Territory became lively, and even the Ancient Clans and Demon Clans paid special attention to this matter, wanting to see the strength of the younger generation of the Human Race.

The Demon Emperor Palace was considered a special branch, with the blood of the Heavenly Demon flowing in their bodies, but they also joined the Dao Alliance and participated in this Grand Meet.

"Saint Body Ye Fan was the first to challenge and win ten Dao Halls, obtaining the qualification to challenge Saint-level Dao Halls. It only took him half a day, and in the other half day, he challenged ten Saint-level Dao Halls, obtaining the qualification to challenge Emperor-level Dao Halls. I wonder which Emperor-level Dao Hall he will challenge first."

"Wang Chong, in the Transformation Dragon realm, also only took one day to win twenty consecutive battles, and obtained the qualification to challenge Emperor-level Dao Halls, vowing to challenge the Origin Heaven Sect Dao Hall."

"Hey, wasn't Wang Teng of the Wang family in the Northern Plains crippled by the Sect Master of the Origin Heaven Sect? Why is his younger brother Wang Chong still participating?"

"The Wang family in the Northern Plains has opened a Dao Hall. With the Northern Emperor Wang Teng crippled, they probably want to cultivate his younger brother Wang Chong to replace him."

On the first day of the Dao Hall Challenge, two geniuses appeared, who were the first to obtain the qualification to challenge Emperor-level Dao Halls. As long as they obtained the badges of three Emperor-level Dao Halls, they would be eligible to participate in the Martial Arts Grand Meet in one year.

This matter will become the biggest topic in the cultivation world for a period of time in the future, and this will be a long-term excitement.

Jade Radiance took this opportunity to launch a cultivation world newspaper and competition broadcasts, giving all the cultivators a feeling that Jade Radiance was drilling into money.

But to be honest, Yaoguang disciples are really rich. Any cultivator who sees a Yaoguang disciple outside wants to rob them.

If it weren't for the treasures exchanged from within the sect protecting every Yaoguang disciple, they would really do it.

Even the Yuantian Sect seems to be slightly inferior. Their spending isn't as generous as Yaoguang's. After all, Yaoguang's ability to make money is something that other sects can hardly match.

Pill giant, magic treasure giant, trade giant, Yaoguang has made so much money over the years.

The next day, news spread that Ye Fan and Wang Chong had both obtained qualifications for the Martial Arts Tournament. Both of them completed the requirement of challenging and defeating three Emperor-level dojos within a day, successfully advancing to the Martial Arts Tournament a year later.

But Ye Fan stopped after this and didn't continue because all he wanted was a qualification.

Moreover, the people guarding the dojos were too weak for him, so weak that he had no interest in challenging them. It wouldn't provide much training, so he might as well cultivate on his own.

But Wang Chong continued, seemingly to vent his anger or to revive the prestige of the Wang family. He actually challenged all the way.

After obtaining the qualification, he no longer picky. He just went all the way, challenging every dojo he saw, one after another.

Obviously, this was a kind of training for him.

Subsequently, a woman was the third to obtain qualification. Her name was Jiang Tingting. She was a proud daughter of the ancient Jiang family. It was discovered that she was a rare Taiyin Body. Her attacks were filled with Taiyin energy, and she had almost no match in the Transformation Dragon Realm.

Jiang Tingting's first challenge was also to a Yuantian Sect dojo. After obtaining the qualification, she stopped and didn't continue challenging. She returned to the Jiang family to wait for the competition a year later.

The fourth, the fifth, the sixth...

One after another, human geniuses and some older figures appeared and fought for the spots.

People were surprised to find that some Supreme Elders of the great sects were also participating. Sect Leader-level figures did not appear, probably due to face, but Supreme Elder-level figures, experts at the peak of the Great Power Realm, did appear, leaving the dojo guardians speechless.

Isn't this bullying?

"It seems that Sect Leader-level figures will not participate, unwilling to lose face."

"That's right, but with so many Supreme Elder-level figures competing, those young people should have a headache. They haven't reached the peak of the Great Power Realm yet."

"In this way, the Saint Platform Group is really a bit dangerous and not very friendly to young people."

"That's right."

In the various leisure pavilions of Five Rivers Plain, Yaoguang sent the latest news every day for everyone to gossip and chat.

But to their surprise, a Sect Leader from Central Province entered the competition in just a few days.

"What? The Sect Leader of the Heavenly Puppet Sect also participated?"

"A dignified Sect Leader of the Hundred Schools of Thought actually disregards his face for the reward?"

"If I could exchange a million Pure Yang Pills for losing face, I would be willing too, but unfortunately, my cultivation is not enough."

"Uh... that's true."

"It seems that the competition in the Saint Platform Group is the most intense. With the first Sect Leader stepping forward and breaking the tacit agreement, I'm afraid more Sect Leaders and even Holy Lords of the Extreme Dao forces will participate next."

Such a scene is exciting just to think about.

"It's still necessary to limit the cultivation, otherwise, there would be no need for Sect Leader Luo to come forward. A Yaoguang Holy Lord standing there would probably deter everyone from stepping forward. That's the ruthless character who killed Wang Yangzhan, the Sect Leader of the Yin-Yang Sect, at the first level of the Saint Platform Realm."

"Yes, he was the first to reveal the Divine Forbidden back then. So many years have passed, and he has already cut the Dao and become a King. If he is still in the Divine Forbidden, wouldn't he be able to fight a Saint?"

"Indeed, if he is still in the Divine Forbidden Domain, that is equivalent to a Saint! Hiss—Yaoguang is so terrifying!"

"Not only are there many disciples and sufficient scriptures and secret techniques, but there are also so many of the Nine Secrets. Its ability to make money is unparalleled, and now it even has high-level combat power. Is this generation of Yaoguang going to rise?"

The jade crystal screen in the pavilion is very large, and it is broadcasting the challenge of a Yaoguang disciple in the Four Extremes Realm. The disciple advances and retreats with composure, and his secret techniques are skilled. One hand seal is as heavy as a mountain, and divine power and Dao principles are transformed into a phantom of a divine mountain to constantly suppress, causing the Qingfeng Sect disciple guarding the dojo to retreat steadily and quickly admit defeat.

But at this moment, the picture on the jade crystal screen changed, and product information from the Da Luo Realm appeared.

"Hugging Mountain Seal Scattered Hand Style Three, price: 56,000 Nascent Soul Pills..."

A group of cultivators had question marks in their eyes.

Yaoguang, are you so outrageous now?

You're showing us the competition broadcast and even promoting your family's secret techniques at the same time?

"To celebrate Yaoguang disciple Mu Niancheng's qualification for the Emperor-level Dojo Challenge, the Hugging Mountain Seal Scattered Hand series is 20% off for a limited time. Please log in to the Da Luo Realm for details..."

What?

20% off?

A group of cultivators who saw GG immediately used their divine sense to enter the Da Luo Realm to check the goods. They also wanted to buy some secret techniques, but the secret techniques in the Da Luo Realm were generally not cheap, and cheap ones were not good.

Now that there is a 20% discount, many people are tempted.

Some cultivators immediately purchased it, but what they didn't expect was that just a few days later, the Yaoguang disciple named Mu Niancheng won the challenge of three Emperor-level dojos and obtained the qualification for the Martial Arts Tournament. Yaoguang directly gave a 40% discount on the Hugging Mountain Seal Scattered Hand series of secret techniques.

Regret.

In short, it was very regretful.

If they could, they just wanted to say:

rnm! Refund!

Later, everyone learned to be smart. They would wait for the first batch of discounts, and then buy when the second batch of discounts came. This way, the discount would be even greater, which is called making a profit!

To this, Jiang Li just wanted to say: Ah yes yes yes, you all made a profit, and I'm the only one who lost money, so much that I'm about to lose my pants.

Therefore, whenever news of a Yaoguang disciple's challenge appeared, cultivators would pay close attention to the secret techniques that the other party was good at. If there were any that suited them, they would pay more attention, because there might be a discount. The discount target was generally one of the several secret techniques that the Yaoguang disciple was good at.

Unconsciously, traffic gathered, and when everyone was paying attention to this matter, it was a good time to make money.

Taking this opportunity, Yaoguang successively launched the same magic treasures and foundation-building pills as the Yaoguang disciples who obtained the tournament qualifications, and also bundled packages, starting a big sale.

Although, but, a group of cultivators, especially those with sects, found that they seemed to be richer than before. They didn't know why they had more money. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that it was because the sects raised believers, produced the power of faith, and sold it in Yaoguang's Da Luo Realm in exchange for Nascent Soul Pills, which made them relatively wealthy.

So, we are not buying things from Yaoguang at all. We are just exchanging the prayers of worthless mortals for Yaoguang's pills, secret techniques, and magic treasures, which is equivalent to getting it for free!

Thinking about it this way, it's not our own money that we're spending. Instead, we're arming and strengthening ourselves, so we're spending money like water!
