Zhong Shan, Mr. Shi, Yin Luori, and Wei Taizhong quickly flew towards the center of the Netherworld. This journey took half a year. They only stopped a few times along the way. After flying for half a year, they finally arrived at the periphery of the Bottomless Hell.
The sky at the periphery of the Bottomless Hell was extremely gloomy. It was difficult to see the sun, but the moon often appeared. The Yin energy here was extremely dense. In the wilderness, some unconscious ghosts could often be seen wandering around aimlessly. Some of them had gained sentience, some of them turned into ashes as time passed. Most of them were constantly moving, walking towards the Bottomless Hell. It was as if they were instinctive.
There were also a large number of rotting corpses in the wilderness. They looked very eerie. Some of the crows that ate the corpses let out sorrowful cries, adding a sense of desolation.
When they reached this place, it was as if they had arrived at a cemetery at night. It was simply a different world from the outside world.
They were about to enter the Bottomless Hell. Zhong Shan prepared to stop and investigate the situation first. Although Wei Taizhong had been there before, he knew that His Majesty had always been prepared for battles. After all, saving Inglan was too difficult. Without sufficient preparation, it was impossible to succeed. In His Majesty's words, "To take in advance, one must first give."
Zhong Shan and the others first found a city. He swaggered into the room.
This was a city in the Netherworld. Not only were there people in the city, but there were also ghosts and skeletons. In any case, it was very complicated. However, there was one thing that was strange. Everyone found that many of the shops were closed.
"Your Majesty, when I came to this city last time, the shops were basically open. Something's wrong!" Wei Taizhong shook his head and said.
"Demonic blood stone, it's the demonic blood stone. This time, the demonic blood stone has increased!" A loud shout suddenly came from somewhere.
Following that, a large number of living beings and undead swarmed out of the originally quiet street and quickly ran into the distance.
"Are these people crazy?" Yin Luori frowned and said.
"Let's go and find a restaurant to ask!" Zhong Shan said.
"Okay!" Everyone nodded.
The Darong Chamber of Commerce had only been in the Netherworld for a short time, so they had not opened a branch here yet. They could only ask around.
The four of them stepped into a restaurant. The restaurant was empty. There were no customers, only a few waiters who were bored to death. There was also a shopkeeper who was looking at the accounts with a frown.
"Sirs, please come in!" A sharp-eyed waiter immediately spotted Zhong Shan's group.
The waiter's voice was like a stimulant, causing everyone's eyes to light up, especially the shopkeeper. He looked at the four of them with excitement, as if he hadn't opened for business for a long time.
"Okay." Zhong Shan nodded.
The shopkeeper was a veteran of the Jianghu. He could tell at a glance that these four people were of high status. He immediately walked up to greet them. "Dear guests, what would you like to eat? We're … "
Before he could finish, Wei Taizhong interrupted the shopkeeper and said, "Bring up the best!"
"Good, good, good!" The shopkeeper's eyes lit up with excitement.
After waiting for so many days, this important guest had finally arrived. He gave the waiter a look, and the waiter immediately understood and went to bring the dishes.
"Shopkeeper, I have something to ask you. Why are the people outside acting so crazy?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Oh, you can see it too!" The shopkeeper smiled bitterly.
"Oh?"
"This matter starts from the enmity between our emperor and the Tian family." The shopkeeper shook his head.
"Eh? Wait, you're talking about the emperor? Isn't this the Imperial Dynasty? Why is there an emperor here? "Zhong Shan was surprised.
"This is the Imperial Dynasty, the Star Dou Imperial Dynasty. But eight months ago, we found out that the Star Dou Imperial Dynasty had always been a vassal of the Great Development Celestial Dynasty. Or rather, the Great Development Celestial Dynasty had long been targeting the Tian family. They had long sent a crown prince to establish an Imperial Dynasty here." The shopkeeper said.
"Oh? This Imperial Dynasty also belongs to the Star Dou Imperial Dynasty? "Zhong Shan was surprised.
Hearing Zhong Shan directly call the Star Dou Imperial Dynasty by his name, the shopkeeper frowned slightly, but thinking of the four people's identities, he didn't refute.
"That's right. I believe you all know about the enmity between the emperor and the Tian family!" The shopkeeper said.
"Yes!" Zhong Shan nodded.
"The Tian family sent a large number of experts to destroy the Great Development Celestial Dynasty. The emperor couldn't take it anymore and rushed here. He even invited some experts from the Immortal Realm to come and deal with the tyrannical Tian family together!" The shopkeeper said.
"The Immortal Realm also sent people?" Zhong Shan was surprised.
"Rumor has it that the Unaging World's experts and his majesty had even personally paid a visit to the Tian Family, but in the end, they returned without accomplishing anything. As such, his majesty decided to first wipe out the Imperial Dynasty controlled by the Tian Family, destroy its fate, erase the Tian Family's power layer by layer!" The manager said.
"What about the Tian family?"
"The Tian family didn't send a large number of experts, but let the Tian family's young master, Tian Xiao, be in charge of the court battle. It seems more like they're training the young master." The shopkeeper said.
"Yes, the court battle is in a stalemate?" Zhong Shan asked.
"In your eyes, the genius young master of the Tian family is indeed very powerful in commanding the court battle. However, the emperor created such a large Celestial Dynasty, and his battle experience is even more abundant. As a result, the court battle is in a stalemate." The shopkeeper said.
"Yes, then what's going on in your city?" Zhong Shan frowned and asked.
"We don't know when it started, but the price of some things suddenly increased crazily. Originally, it was an ordinary material that wasn't used, but its value suddenly increased by dozens of times. Countless people made a fortune because of this. However, in less than two days, the price of that material suddenly decreased, and many people lost everything." The shopkeeper said with lingering fear.
"Eh?" Zhong Shan was slightly surprised. Why did he feel that it was so familiar?
"After the price of that material decreased, another material suddenly increased in price crazily. Then, many people invested money in it. After investing, some people made a lot of money, and some people lost everything."
"Every day, the price of the material kept changing?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Yes, every day. After a few months, many people in the city went crazy. They scrambled to invest in the price changes. More and more people became rich overnight, and more and more people became poor overnight. Many shops on the street closed. Now, the loans are increasing, and the people's hearts are in turmoil." The shopkeeper said with lingering fear.
"You've participated in it before?" Zhong Shan laughed.
"This one once invested a little, but unfortunately, it was all lost. I don't dare to touch it again." The shopkeeper said embarrassedly.
"Master, this, isn't this the leftover material you played with in the past?" Wei Taizhong said with surprise.
In front of strangers, Wei Taizhong still called Zhong Shan 'master'.
Leftover material from the past? The shopkeeper looked at Wei Taizhong with a strange face. What do you mean by leftover material from the past?
Zhong Shan also didn't expect that the Sky Breaker plan from the past would reappear in the underworld! Xing Taidou was really in trouble this time! As for the Sky Breaker plan, Zhong Shan didn't believe that Tian Xiao came up with it on his own. It could only be Xiao Wang who told him.
Destroying an imperial dynasty with a commercial war. If Xing Taidou didn't realize the strangeness of the commercial war, he would definitely suffer a great loss!
"Then, did your government take any measures to stop it?" Zhong Shan asked.
"Why would the government stop it? This crazy business is paying more than ten times the tax every month. Why would they stop it? Moreover, many officials and soldiers have invested in it. They are all following the trend! "The shopkeeper shook his head.
"I knew it!" Zhong Shan smiled strangely.
A strange smile appeared on Mr. Corpse's face as well. That's right, Operation Heavenbreaker had a profound impact on the mortal realm back in the day. It could be said that all the dynasties in the world were in danger.
However, Mr. Corpse also knew that Project Skybreaker was not something that could be set up by an ordinary person. Without the ability to control the market, it could only be regarded as imitating someone else and making a fool of themselves. However, Tian Xiao and Xiao Wang were clearly not people who made a fool of themselves. Therefore, Mr. Corpse unconsciously showed a hint of pity for Xing Taidou.
At this time, all kinds of dishes were quickly served.
"Everyone, enjoy your meal!" The shopkeeper looked at the expensive dishes with a trace of excitement on his face.
"Okay! You can leave now! "Zhong Shan nodded.
"Uh, okay!" The shopkeeper nodded.
When the shopkeeper left, there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. This was because Zhong Shan had subconsciously said, "You may leave." This was a subconscious sentence that further illustrated Zhong Shan's nobility. Who was he?
"What do you mean by leftover material from the past?" Yin Luori looked at everyone strangely.
"When I was an official in the Daluo Heaven Dynasty, I used this plan. Sky Breaker Four Levels. I wonder how much of it Xiao Wang can use!" Zhong Shan smiled.
"Oh? Did Xiao Wang learn it from you? Will this kind of price affect the imperial war? "Yin Luori asked.
"Your Majesty's Sky Breaker plan used only a few thousand people to destroy an imperial dynasty without shedding a drop of blood!" Mr. Shi said with certainty.
"Without shedding a drop of blood?" Yin Luori said in disbelief. Was the imperial dynasty really that easy to destroy?
"Your Majesty, you are familiar with Xiao Wang and Tian Xiao. Do you want to go and check it out?" Mr. Shi asked.
"No, it won't do much. Let's rest for a day and enter the Bottomless Hell tomorrow!" Zhong Shan said with certainty.
"Yes!" Mr. Shi nodded.
Everyone rested for a day to recover their energy and officially set off.
"Shopkeeper!" Zhong Shan called out.
"Is there anything else you need?" The shopkeeper walked up with a smile. In just one day, this group of rich people had given him nearly a month's worth of income. What an important guest!
"Thank you for your information yesterday. It was very useful to me. I'll give you some advice as a reward!" Zhong Shan smiled.
"You're too kind. You've already given me so many Spiritual Stones. I'm already very grateful." The shopkeeper immediately smiled.
"Spiritual Stones are our expenses. It doesn't count. I'll give you some advice. It's up to you whether you want to listen or not!" Zhong Shan said.
"Please go ahead!"
"After some time, the price of Sumeru Stones will drop, and no one will buy them anymore. Let's buy more!" Zhong Shan laughed.
"Sumeru Stones?" The shopkeeper was puzzled at first, but then he nodded and said, "I'll remember what you said. Thank you!"
Zhong Shan nodded and ignored the shopkeeper. He walked out of the restaurant with the three of them.
Looking at Zhong Shan's back, the shopkeeper frowned. "Sumeru Stones? Leftovers from years ago? "
Gradually, the shopkeeper made a decision. He took a deep breath and prepared to plunge into the rising tide outside.
