Brother Yue? Yue Qianchou was somewhat baffled. He couldn't help but touch his own face. He didn't seem to be so handsome that everyone would like him!
"Shameless slut!" Long Xiaojiu snorted in disdain.
"Who are you scolding, Miss Long?" Wan Ling's eyes flashed fiercely. Long Xiaojiu snorted and didn't reply. If she pointed out names, it would undoubtedly give the other party a reason to flip out. In any case, everyone knew who she was scolding. It was fine as long as she could piss them off.
Yue Qianchou had already heard about these two, especially Wan Ling's abnormal story. He immediately woke up from his narcissism and realized that he had become the object of these two women's competition. He immediately said to them bluntly, "You two are here to scout for information. Now that you see that I'm not dead, why aren't you going back to report?"
The two women's expressions were a bit awkward after being exposed by him. However, Wan Ling's skin was clearly thicker. She rolled her eyes and replied, "Brother Yue, others might not know you, but do you think I don't? How could Cangyun Xin hurt you in the Pure Paradise Immortal Realm? I'm here to ask Brother Yue, the once-in-a-century Ranking Conference is about to begin. I wonder if Brother Yue's World Commerce Association is going to participate? "
Who's your brother? You're so many times older than me! Although Yue Qianchou cursed in his heart, he still believed Wan Ling's words. After all, she had always thought that he was the Immortal Emperor's trusted secret agent. As for this once-in-a-century Ranking Conference, he had stayed in the Illusionary Immortal City for a long time. It could be said that he had heard about it for a long time.
The Ranking Conference was actually a challenge competition. The rules were very simple. Every sect had ten chances to challenge and be challenged. Under normal circumstances, the lower ranked sects would challenge the higher ranked sects. Every challenge would be won by three out of five wins. The winner of the challenge would naturally push the loser down from their original ranking. The loser would also have a chance to regain their ranking. However, the chances were the same. Everyone only had ten chances. If the ten chances were used up, then your sect's ranking would be fixed. If you wanted to compete again, you would have to wait for a hundred years.
In the end, the top 100 sects and the top 100 Chambers of Commerce would be chosen. In fact, after countless years of evolution, the majority of the Chambers of Commerce and Sects had become family-like. This was something that could not be helped. Regardless of which Sect's leaders were more or less selfish. It was only natural for them to take care of their descendants.
The years of Immortal Cultivation were endless. Gradually, the number of descendants increased. It was not strange for a sect or a Chamber of Commerce to become a family. As for those brothers and subordinates who had fought together with him in the past, they would slowly be ostracized. Although it was cruel, it was very realistic. Even if some disciples with other surnames joined in, they would all be putting their lives on the line. It would be very difficult for them to hold power.
To put it bluntly, the Ranking Conference would determine the top two hundred sects. The top two hundred sects had to participate in the next Ranking Assembly and accept challenges. There was no reason to refuse. The rules were set by the Immortal Palace. Who would dare to refuse?
Of course, the various sects of the Immortal Dimension were risking their lives to participate in the Ranking Conference naturally for the sake of benefits. One should know that the various sects had to support so many disciples. The consumption of Spirit Stones was very large. This was because Spirit Stones could be used as currency in the Immortal Dimension. They were also necessary consumables for the cultivation of the various sects. The more people a sect had, the more Spirit Stones they needed to support it.
However, after countless years, the Spirit Stone reserves in the Immortal Dimension were almost depleted. The Spirit Stone reserves in the 72 worlds of the human world were not enough for the various sects. Now, the largest source of Spirit Stones in the Immortal Dimension was the Underworld. Therefore, all the sects wanted to squeeze into the Underworld to make a fortune. However, the Immortal Palace guarded and controlled the passage to the Underworld.
It was not that the Immortal Palace did not allow people to make a fortune in the Underworld. If they wanted to enter, they could as long as they had a pass issued by the Immortal Palace. The only way to obtain a pass was to participate in the Ranking Assembly. Every Assembly would issue five hundred passes. The top two hundred sects would be divided according to their ranking.
One pass could bring one hundred people into the Underworld. Some sects that had been in the top two hundred for a long time had accumulated a large number of people in the pass. The more people that entered the Underworld, the more Spirit Stones they would earn. The large sects would easily send thousands of people into the Underworld. The profits they earned could be imagined. This was the main reason why the sects fought over the rankings.
However, entering the Underworld was not smooth sailing. The Underworld was chaotic and vast. It was not something the Immortal Dimension could compare to. Warlords were divided and the Emperor of the Underworld reigned supreme. In short, the risk factor was very high. The pass in the hands of the various sects would often be lost. Therefore, they needed to participate in the Ranking Assembly to replenish it. Most importantly, when walking in the Underworld, they would often encounter the patrolling Dark Underworld Army. Without the protection of a pass, they would be killed by the Dark Underworld Army as trespassers.
There were also some sects that were unable to survive and had no choice but to sell their pass. For example, Mu Tianjiao's Four Links Chamber of Commerce had obtained one because of this.
As for whether or not to participate in the Ranking Assembly, Yue Qianchou thought for a long time. He wanted a pass, but with the strength of the World Chamber of Commerce, it was almost impossible to enter the top two hundred. Even if he participated, it would be a waste.
At the same time, there were a few things that made him suspicious. The fight between the various sects' disciples in the Divine Ruin Realm, the challenge of the Life and Death Mound's sect master, and this Ranking Assembly, as well as the various dangers that were rumored to be encountered after entering the Underworld. He had experienced two of these four things. In both cases, the disciples of various sects were bathed in blood and killing each other. He always felt that the Immortal Palace was thinking of ways to purposely deplete the strength of the various sects in the Immortal Dimension.
Especially the matter of the Life and Death Mound's sect master challenge. Killing was forbidden in the Illusionary Immortal City, so why was it only permissible for sect masters to kill each other? Think about it, if the leader of a sect died, then the sect was very likely to be in turmoil. It might even collapse or be swallowed by other forces. This was something that Yue Qianchou had unintentionally thought of after experiencing the Life and Death Mound's challenge. He vaguely smelled a conspiracy.
However, the Immortal Palace was too ruthless. How could a sect survive without Spirit Stones? Especially those large sects that had more people to support. There were restrictions in the Immortal Dimension. If one wanted to earn large amounts of Spirit Stones, they could only go to the Underworld. However, to go to the Underworld, they had to obtain a passage token.
Even Yue Qianchou had no other way. If they wanted to go to the Underworld, they had to first obtain a passage token. Otherwise, even if they found a way to sneak into the Underworld, they wouldn't be able to pass through the Dark Underworld Army! Therefore, they still had to think of a way to obtain a passage token.
"Ranking Assembly?" Yue Qianchou looked at Wan Ling and said with a bitter smile, "With our World Commerce's current strength, do you think there's any meaning in participating in the Ranking Assembly? Even if we go, we won't be able to squeeze into the top two hundred. "
Wan Ling chuckled and said, "Doesn't Big Brother Yue have two experts under him? If White Cloud Mountain Chieftain and Green Wing Bat King were to make a move, we might have a chance. "
Yue Qianchou shook his head. Nothing could happen to these two experts at the moment. The World Commerce still had to rely on them to scare people. Especially Wei Chunqiu, they still had to rely on him to impart the Myriad Demon Heart Sutra to Bai Suzhen. Nothing could happen to him. As for the passage token, it wasn't necessary to participate in the Ranking Assembly to obtain it. Stealing, robbing, or robbing were all good methods. Of course, it would be even better if someone was willing to sell it. It naturally wouldn't do if the price was too high.
"We'll talk about this when the time comes! I still have some matters to attend to, so I won't be accompanying the two of you. "Yue Qianchou cupped his hands towards the two girls and entered the World Commerce's building in a flash. Meanwhile, Wan Ling and Long Xiaojiu looked at each other in disdain, snorted provocatively, and went their separate ways.
On the first floor of the World Commerce, Yue Qianchou walked around the various counters that sold immortal herbs. He discovered that there weren't many immortal herbs left and business was very quiet. Most of the country lords had returned to their rooms to meditate and cultivate. Only a small portion of people remained at their posts, seemingly taking turns to be on duty.
Seeing that Yue Qianchou had come to inspect, someone couldn't help but grumble to him, "Sect Master, take out some good stuff to sell! If this goes on, there won't be any customers coming. "
"You guys sell what you want. Whether they want to buy it or not, just take your time to sell it." Yue Qianchou left everyone speechless, then went upstairs.
At this time, in the Illusionary Immortal City, the rumors about Yue Qianchou being killed by Graycloud Xin were quickly purged. Instead, it was inconceivable that Graycloud Xin actually failed to kill Yue Qianchou. Everyone found this a little hard to believe ….
Returning to the twenty-second floor, Yue Qianchou quickly took out a jade archive and inserted something into it. Then, he walked to the door of his room. Wei Chunqiu was sitting cross-legged at the door. Yue Qianchou crouched in front of him and handed him the jade archive, "Bat King Wei, I'll have to trouble you with something. Based on your relationship with the Great Bright Wheel, can you ask the Great Bright Wheel to make another trip to Wu Xiong in the Paradise Immortal Realm and help me pass this jade archive to Lu Yanqing, then bring her back?"
Wei Chunqiu slowly opened his eyes and sneered, "Who do you think the Great Bright Wheel is, running errands for you when he has nothing better to do? Leave it here. If he goes to the Paradise Immortal Realm, I'll have him deliver it for you. "He took the jade archive and put it away.
Yue Qianchou thanked him, then peeked through the crack in the door and said, "I won't disturb you anymore." Just as he was about to leave, he heard Wei Chunqiu say, "Don't go yet. You have something to do first." Yue Qianchou was stunned, "What is it?"
"At first, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to solve this problem. However, seeing that you were able to safely escape from Graycloud Xin's hands, I've gained some confidence in you." Wei Chunqiu glanced at him and said indifferently, "Didn't you say that I would only be responsible for teaching her the cultivation method and that you would solve any problems?"
He had indeed said this before. Yue Qianchou asked suspiciously, "What problems do you need me to solve? Why don't you tell me about it first? "
"To cultivate the Myriad Demonic Heart Sutra, the first thing you need to do is to communicate with your own Inner Core. In other words, you need to understand your own Inner Core and become connected with it. She's almost done with this step. It won't be long before she enters the next step of cultivation. " Wei Chunqiu slowly stood up and said with a solemn expression, "I want you to collect ten thousand Inner Cores to help her refine her own Inner Core."
"Collect ten thousand Inner Cores?" Yue Qianchou scratched his head and asked in confusion, "What do you mean? How do I collect them? "
"Kill Yao cultivators or ferocious beasts and seize their Inner Cores. Use their Inner Cores to help Bai Suzhen refine her own Inner Core," Wei Chunqiu said, enunciating each word.
Yue Qianchou was stunned. He was tongue-tied for a while before he gulped and said, "You're not joking, are you? Doesn't that mean I'll have to kill over ten thousand Yao cultivators and ferocious beasts? Where am I supposed to find so many fellows? "
Wei Chunqiu's face was solemn like never before. He gritted his teeth and said, "I know it's cruel. I don't want to do it either. After all, we're all demons. But with success comes sacrifice. If the Demon Clan has another Ancestor of all Demons, who would dare to easily enslave the Demon Clan and use them as mounts as they wish? Sacrificing a portion of the demons can save the dignity of the majority. It's worth it! "
Yue Qianchou was speechless. He didn't expect this fellow to have such great ambitions. He actually wanted to benefit all demons. It seemed like he couldn't use him as a mount anymore. Wei Chunqiu paused and continued, "Of course, you don't really have to kill over ten thousand Yao cultivators and ferocious beasts. But the more Inner Cores there are, the better it will be for her to refine her Inner Core. Why is it called the Myriad Demonic Heart Sutra? Because a demon's Inner Core is equivalent to a demon's heart. It contains the meaning that only by comprehending the heart of ten thousand demons can one cultivate the true sutra. If one doesn't understand ten thousand demons, how can one be worthy of being the Ancestor of all Demons? So, the more Inner Cores she has, the better it will be for her future cultivation. If it's really difficult to obtain ten thousand Inner Cores, you have to get at least five thousand. Otherwise, her future cultivation will be very difficult. "
"Yao cultivators … Ferocious beasts also have Inner Cores? Then you … "
Wei Chunqiu waved his hand and said, "Although ferocious beasts are chaotic and reckless, most of them are from the Desolate Era. Compared to normal birds and beasts, they all have unique talents. As long as a ferocious beast is born, it will start to nurture its Inner Core. When it reaches adulthood, its Inner Core will also be formed. Unlike other birds and beasts, they need to cultivate painstakingly before they can condense their Inner Core. Once a ferocious beast develops its spiritual intelligence and becomes an immortal beast, its Inner Core will fuse with its main body. Heaven's creation has its differences. There are gains and losses. It's really magical. And the reason why I have an Inner Core is because I've spent many years to gradually find a way to separate the Inner Core that has fused with my main body. When my Inner Core is completely condensed, I can start cultivating the Ten Thousand Demon Heart Sutra … When are you going to return my Inner Core to me? "
"Uh …" Yue Qianchou was listening intently and nodded repeatedly. He didn't expect him to suddenly change the topic. He coughed and said perfunctorily, "What's the hurry? I'll naturally return it to you when the time comes. That … Where am I going to kill so many Yao cultivators and ferocious beasts! The Celestial Realm is mostly immortal beasts! If I have to find them one by one, how long will it take! "
"The place with the most Yao cultivators is naturally the human world. The place with the most ferocious beasts is naturally the Divine Ruin Realm." Wei Chunqiu frowned and said, "It's best to get more Inner Cores from both ferocious beasts and Yao cultivators. The more complex the better. That way, it will be more beneficial to her future cultivation."
