When his voice fell, the audience was in awe, and the silence lasted for a long time.
Wang Lu smiled as he turned his head and saw several hundred pairs of vacant eyes.
The matter in the sky that Wang Lu said, as well as the way for mortals to become Immortals, was obviously very different from their expectation. However, compared to the Seven Stars Sect's careless promise that everyone could become Immortals, the world described by Wang Lu was undoubtedly more realistic and credible. Even if deep down, the villagers were more willing to believe that as long as they ate some elixirs and were enlightened by the Seven Stars Sect, they could become Immortals, but...
Millions of pioneers, the Immortal Path was right under their feet. This kind of rhetoric could indeed make people's blood boil. However, after a moment of excitement, they had to face a real problem. Pioneers … Do they have this qualification!? Even if they struggled for their whole lives, perhaps they could only become the pile of bones under the feet of the successful ones.
Some people even couldn't help but feel a trace of resentment. Why did the Immortal World look like what the Wisdom Sect said, but not what the Seven Stars Sect described …?
While people were digesting the matter in the sky with complex feelings, Wang Lu opened his mouth again.
"You guys don't want to be pioneers?"
Wang Qinian froze for a moment. "Yes, of course we do, but …"
"Since you want to, then why do you have resentment, doubt, and feel inferior? Do you think you can't be pioneers? "
Wang Qinian and several other villagers looked at each other, and then the old Village Head bitterly smiled and replied, "Sect Leader, you're from the Immortal World, so perhaps you don't understand the suffering of us mortals. We don't have such good aptitude and perception. If we only rely on our own cultivation, I'm afraid we'll never reach the Immortal Realm."
Wang Lu smiled. "So you don't cultivate?"
Wang Qinian was immediately stunned by this question. Since there's nothing, why should I cultivate?
"Indeed, I was born as an immortal, so I don't understand the suffering of the mortal world. However, I know that for thousands of years in Nine Regions, countless cultivators have struggled on the road of immortal cultivation. Not everyone is overflowing with talent, and not everyone has a heaven-bestowed immortal fate. Moreover, even if they are heaven-bestowed geniuses, in the end, only a few of them could reach the end … Then, what have these countless cultivators been cultivating for thousands of years?"
While speaking, Wang Lu pointed his finger at the dirty old man He Yun: "This person was born in the mortal world, he is just a cultivator, not an Immortal. But, are you willing to exchange with him? "
"Exchange with him?"
"That's right. In exchange for his immortal arts and cultivation base."
Wang Qinian stared blankly for a moment before realization dawned on him. "Of course I'm willing! Although Immortal Elder is not a True Immortal, the mysteriousness of the Immortal Technique is not something that my old body can compare to. "
Wang Lu smiled. "Then I'll ask you again. Are you going to fix it or not?"
"Repair, of course repair! It's just that … "
At this time, the dirty old man promptly interrupted them. "Yes, regarding aptitude and perception, you guys are just ordinary ordinary people. However, in immortal cultivation, the most important thing is chance. And in this world, what is more worthy of being called a chance than being favored by an Immortal?"
Hearing this, the villagers, no matter how dull they were, understood the meaning behind it, and they were immediately ecstatic.
"Then dare I ask Sect Leader, how are we going to cultivate?"
Wang Lu shook his head and refused to say anything.
Wang Qinian doubtfully froze on the spot, not knowing why the Immortal's speech ended here.
The dirty old man coughed and said, "It's not that Sect Leader doesn't want to enlighten us, but the cultivation method is a secret of our Wisdom Sect that has never been divulged to outsiders. It doesn't matter that Sect Leader is an Immortal, but other people may be implicated by the Heavenly Dao. Sect Leader sympathizes with his subordinates, therefore …"
Hearing that it had never been divulged to outsiders, Wang Qinian's mind immediately flashed, and he immediately prostrated himself. "Sect Leader, please accept us! All of us in the Wang Family Village are willing to join the Wisdom Sect and serve as your loyal dogs and horses! "
The dirty old man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You, old man, are really … The Wisdom Sect is not a place where just anyone can join, how could you do that!?"
At this time, Wang Lu said, "These people are sincere, so it's not appropriate to just shut them out. Us building the altar here is a chance, so in addition to today's speech, we will give them another chance. These people will be regarded as active members of the Wisdom Sect, and we will take care of them a bit … Tomorrow, you will explain the cultivation method to them. I was born an Immortal, so I'm not as familiar with the cultivation method in the mortal world as you are. "
He Yun bowed. "Subordinate obeys."
Wang Lu smiled, turned his eyes to the villagers, and then said, "Perhaps you guys are doomed to not be able to see the ascension of the boundless world, but I hope you understand that every effort you make is not in vain. The road to the Immortal World is filled with countless bricks, and if you personally build one of them, it will be an eternal glory."
—
After the speech, the crowd gradually dispersed after a long time. Although there were still a lot of confusion in their hearts, most of them couldn't hide the excitement in their hearts, and their hearts almost bloomed with joy.
At the same time, the leaders of the Intelligence Revenue Service also happily held a celebration feast. Just now, the speech completely achieved the desired effect. Even the most picky Holy Maiden couldn't help but praise it.
"Hahaha, millions of ascenders … This setting is really awesome! It's simply domineering! How did you come up with such a nonsense setting? "
The Director modestly waved his hand. "It's just a small trick, not worth mentioning."
The Holy Maiden was still immersed in the good show just now; she was very excited. "Moreover, the last part of your speech is quite wonderful. People's life should be like this … It's hard to imagine that the one who said this is actually from the Non-Phase Peak, Wang Lu, who is famous for his decadent lifestyle!"
"Sh * t, I'm destitute in the Non-Phase Peak, and I even come to your place every day to ask for money, how could I have the capital to be decadent?"
"In short, today you really opened people's eyes, it's like watching you walk in the Immortal Gathering!"
"Come on, let's not mention that nonsense history …"
After laughing, the Holy Maiden spoke out the problem in her heart. "The beginning is good, but what should we do next?"
Wang Lu said, "Do you still need to ask? Of course, it's to collect IQ tax. "
"How? After the Seven Stars Sect incident, if we want to sell spirit roots at a high price, I'm afraid that won't work. "
Wang Lu smiled. "Therefore, we have to do the opposite. Not only we don't sell Six Harmonies Powder and the like at a high price, we have to sell them at a loss price. To collect tax, we have to go the other way."
"What do you mean by the other way?"
"For example, the Thousand Spirit Palace, or the Hundred Flower Garden."
Little Ling 'Er suddenly realized. "You want them to sell their labor!?"
"Yes, just like the rulers of the mortal world, when they exploit their subjects, they also coexist with taxes and corvee labor. In the future, when we popularize Six Harmonies Powder and the like, even if these ignorant people can't cultivate to a high level, they can still be considered to have entered the door. They can build some simple buildings and lay a solid foundation for our Intelligence Revenue Service headquarters. "
Little Ling 'Er rolled her eyes and then said with a smile, "Oh right, this is what you said … what luxury office building?"
"Yes, that's what I mean. In this way, not only we directly benefit from it, but those ignorant people can also improve their cultivation through practice. Not to mention, after the building is completed, everyone will benefit from it. It's really killing many birds with one stone! As the saying goes, even if you want to kill a pig, you must fatten it before killing it. Our Intelligence Revenue Service's job is to let those ignorant people fully move. The more they move, the fatter and stronger this pig will be, and the more we can collect tax from them. Like the Seven Stars Sect, forcing people to sell their blood and kidney in exchange for money to cultivate, it's simply like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. "
These words made the dirty old man and Wu Feihua somewhat uncomfortable. Although they have now renounced the dark and entered the light, listening to Wang Lu's comment on the Seven Stars Sect, their hearts were still a bit embarrassed.
"Then the next question is, where can we find so many Six Harmonies Powder?"
Wang Lu said, "That thing has long been rotten on the street. It's not a high-end drug, as long as you have money, you can buy it."
"Do you have money?"
"So, what do you think I built those one million Primal Chaos Altars for?"
In fact, if one really wanted to buy Six Harmonies Powder, they didn't even need to use the Immortal Cultivation World's currency, spirit stones. This kind of drug has long been popularized in the Nine Regions, and was no longer the exclusive secret medicine of the Shengjing Sect. Nowadays, even a small low-rank sect could easily produce Six Harmonies Spirit Root. Therefore, the price kept falling, and it could even be exchanged with mortal world's gold and silver — because of this, there was room for swindlers to play their tricks. Otherwise, if they exchanged spirit stones for spirit root, and at the same time, they could only use spirit stones to exchange for gold and silver, that would be too uneconomical.
However, if they wanted to purchase in bulk, it was best to use spirit stones and other things to trade. In any case, having one million Primal Chaos Altars was tantamount to having an endless stream of wealth. For many low-rank sects, a qualified altar was equivalent to a spirit stone vein, which was the key to the sect's business.
"Speaking of which, what exactly is that strange sphere that you built today? I've never seen such an altar. "
"Hehe, as I said, it's one million Primal Chaos Altars. As for the specific effect …"
When Wang Lu explained the effect of the altar in detail, the several people in the room couldn't help but be surprised. A growth type altar with tide strength between sixth and seventh rank was already amazing enough. Moreover, the output height was random, and it was very likely to spit out stone slag, or even fifth rank spirit pill … This property was too against the heaven, even a high-rank altar might not be comparable to it. At least, one couldn't expect an altar to only absorb a little spiritual energy to spit out fifth rank spirit pill. This conversion rate was completely unscientific...
"Tsk, tsk, this is really making a lot of money every day. Wang Lu, have you ever calculated, if you don't rely on spirit stones, and only rely on the tide, how long would it take to spit out?"
Wang Lu said, "In general, I can probably play eleven times a day."
The dirty old man gawked for a moment, and then suddenly got up. "Eleven times a day? Doesn't that mean, in a year, this altar can provide us with hundreds of thousands of spirit stones? This is equivalent to having a prefectural city, no, it's even richer than a prefectural city! "
In the past, when the Seven Stars Sect occupied the prefectural city, their annual income was hundreds of thousands of spirit stones. However, this kind of windfall could not be repeated. Only when the city's accumulation was plundered for many years did they suddenly become rich.
Listening to the dirty old man's sigh, Wang Lu just laughed. "That's because my luck is good. Eleven times in a row, I can spit out fifth rank spirit pills. Do you think this is the eleven times in a row? Okay, tomorrow, before your speech, you can try it yourself. If you can't spit it out, you can use your private money to make up for the difference! "
The dirty old man inwardly said, "If I have your luck, how could I end up like this?" He hastily begged for mercy.
"Oh, in short, now that we have money, we also have people's hearts, the next step is …"
Sect Leader Wang Lu's smile turned cold. "Probably some people will come knocking on our door."
