The Myriad Pavilion's manager quickly sent over a list of stores. When Yi Yun scanned the prices, he could not help but click his tongue.
Myriad City was just too prosperous. It was considered a super city in the entire Yang God Empyrean Heaven. The annual income of the stores in the central region was an unimaginable number. Ignoring the Myriad Divine Territory's own faction, there were also many large factions from other regions in the Yang God Empyrean Heaven that had set up businesses in Myriad City. This made the stores in Myriad City extremely popular.
A few large stores in the central region had an annual rent of twenty thousand runes and a ten-year minimum rent.
It sounded expensive, but on second thought, one could do a few large business deals in a year. That way, they would be able to earn back the capital and interest.
With Yi Yun's present wealth, he could not afford to rent a store in the central region. There was no need for that either. He finally chose a small store that was slightly more remote. The rent was only a tenth of the price, but the ten-year minimum rent cost Yi Yun 22,000 runes at once.
When she walked out of the Myriad Pavilion, Ru'er was still in a daze. She did not know how poor she was without coming to Myriad City. A hundred years of the Red Cauldron Sect's income was not even enough to pay a year's rent for a small store in Myriad City.
"I'm really poor."
Yi Yun felt a financial crisis looming over him.
It had been a long time since he had such a feeling. On careful thought, he realized that although he had many supreme-grade treasures on him, he never had much wealth that he could spend.
Although it was possible to earn money by refining pills in the stores, it was just too slow.
Yi Yun wanted to cultivate while honing his alchemical and Desolate Heaven technique.
If he used rare materials to cultivate, he would be able to achieve twice the results with half the effort. However, this also required quite a bit of capital.
Was there any way to quickly earn money in Myriad City?
Yi Yun stroked his chin as he pondered. At that moment, his heart suddenly stirred as he turned his head in surprise. He saw a carriage wrapped in rainbow-colored streams of light rapidly fly past him.
The carriage was pulled by nine rainbow-colored birds. The carriage was three feet off the ground as it floated in midair. It was fast and stable. In a blink of an eye, the carriage disappeared at the end of the street, leaving behind a faint fragrance that inundated him.
This carriage …
Yi Yun was taken aback. He sensed a familiar aura from the carriage that flew past him. However, on careful thought, he could not recall who it was.
His divine sense followed the carriage and saw it fly into a large building that looked like a small mountain.
"Heavenly Treasures Square?"
Yi Yun saw the plaque on the door with such words.
"Ru 'er, do you know about Sky Treasures Arch?"
Yi Yun asked casually, but he never expected Ru'er to blush slightly when she heard that. She nodded and asked hesitantly, "Young Master, are you going to … Heavenly Treasures Arch?"
"What's the problem?"
"It's nothing, it's just that …" Ru 'er explained the Sky Treasures Arch with a red face.
As he listened, Yi Yun was amused.
The Heavenly Treasures Square was the property of the Paradise Sect.
Speaking of the Paradise Chapter, it was famous in the Myriad Divine Territory. The sect's cultivation techniques were extremely special. They focused on following one's heart and indulging one's desires in cultivation, so as to allow one's thoughts to flow smoothly and make breakthroughs.
As a result, the Blissful Faction's reputation was not good. Many disciples of the Blissful Faction took beautiful women as cultivation vessels and enjoyed extravagant life. They were almost classified as a Demonic Faction.
Under such circumstances, the Heavenly Treasures Arch became the most depraved place of pleasure in Myriad City.
A large number of beautiful female slaves were kept here. As long as the price was right, they could be bought and sold at will. Apart from that, there were all sorts of rare treasures, delicacies, as well as life-and-death gambling battles in the underground slaughterhouse.
In short, as long as one had wealth, one could enjoy all sorts of bliss in the Heavenly Treasures Arch.
As Ru 'er explained the Heavenly Treasures Arch, her face was constantly blushing. Yi Yun understood that the lass probably believed that he was going to the Heavenly Treasures Arch to seek pleasure with female slaves.
Yi Yun smiled and did not explain further. He had just arrived in Myriad City and there were many places he had not visited. It was not a bad idea to broaden his horizons. Furthermore, Yi Yun was somewhat curious about the identity of the familiar aura he had previously sensed.
…
The Heavenly Treasures Arch itself was a massive abode enchanted treasure. It had been placed there for millions of years.
The abode spanned a radius of five kilometers and its interior had undergone various modifications. It was opulent and majestic.
When Yi Yun came to the entrance, he saw a row of muscular men dressed in armor standing by the entrance. And behind them were a row of young girls with voluptuous figures. They formed a stark contrast between their savagery and their beauty.
"Welcome!"
The row of young girls bowed in unison. However, they did not bow to every guest. Only those with a certain level of status enjoyed such treatment.
"Young Master Linghu, you're here. Quick, invite him in."
A girl with a smile that resembled a peach blossom came forward and led a white-dressed man in. The white-dressed man walked down from a chariot that glowed resplendently. It was obvious that he came from an extraordinary background.
In Myriad City, there were business opportunities everywhere. With millions of years of accumulation, there were too many wealthy factions. Comparing the Central State Divine Territory to this place was like comparing a small county city to a world-renowned capital.
Yi Yun walked through the Heavenly Treasures Arch's entrance without anyone coming forward to welcome him. He was a stranger and he did not look old, so naturally no one noticed him.
Behind Yi Yun, Ru 'er's face was as red as an apple. Back in Myriad City, she was like an honest child from a poor family. Now that she had suddenly come to this extravagant and sinful land, it was obvious how reserved she was.
"This place sure is resplendent."
Yi Yun walked into the hall that spanned a thousand feet. It was filled with tables and chairs made of divine incense wood. And above the hall's dome, there was a rainbow-colored flame burning, illuminating the hall in rainbow colors.
"Seven-colored Plume Flame?"
The flame that illuminated the Heavenly Treasures Arch was a precious mutated fire spirit. Although its value was far from comparable to Yi Yun's Heretical God Fire Seed, it was still astounding.
Furthermore, there was a coral pot that was more than ten feet tall placed in the middle of the hall. It was even more eye-catching.
The coral was purple in color and had a perfect form. Yi Yun was familiar with the divine alchemist's notes, so he could tell at a glance that it was a deep-sea Purple Blood Coral. It was probably close to a million years old.
Such a Purple Blood Coral was a rare treasure for alchemy, but now, it was being used as a decorative bonsai. Not only was it beautiful, it also filled the hall with rich Yuan Qi.
"Is the Paradise Chapter that rich? To use a million-year-old Purple Blood Coral as a bonsai, it probably costs a million Myriad Runes … "Yi Yun felt a little agitated. He was so poor but the Paradise Chapter was wasteful to such an extent.
"Haha, the Heavenly Treasures Arch has even brought out the Purple Blood Coral. The treatment they give Fairy Youqin is indeed different!"
"Of course. It can be said that we are benefiting from it. Although we can't get intimate with her, nor can we eat the medicine refined from the Purple Blood Coral, being able to inhale the Yuan Qi emitted by the Purple Blood Coral is quite refreshing."
When Yi Yun heard the two warriors' discussion, he felt a little better. From the looks of it, the Heavenly Treasures Arch would only bring out a worldly spiritual item like the Purple Blood Coral at critical moments. They were not so rich that they treated the Purple Blood Coral as a bonsai.
