Chapter 217: Madness
It can be said that the Divine Sword Sect can have now, and Zhong Yuan has made great contributions.
At the beginning of the reconstruction of the Divine Sword Sect, the sect had no resources, and the monks in the sect even moved the idea of attacking the rest of the sects in the Qiu Kingdom.
At that time, it was Zhong Yuan who led a large number of monks to persecute Tianxuanmen on the grounds that he was besieged by Tianxuanmen monks, and finally obtained the assets of several sects, alleviating the urgent need of the Divine Sword Sect.
However, the danger of Tianxuanmen to the Divine Sword Sect still existed, and later Zhong Yuan and Qing Mingzi joined forces to destroy the Tianxuanmen, solving the biggest opponent of the Divine Sword Sect, so that they could modify the basic exercises of the Divine Sword Sect with peace of mind.
Now not only has the basic exercises of the Divine Sword Sect been modified to the Yuanying Great Perfection Realm, which can give them the opportunity to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm, but also the cultivation techniques of the Transformation Divine Realm have been shared.
And the benefit that Zhong Yuan got in this is probably that at the beginning of the establishment of Galaxy Science and Technology City, he recruited some disciples who were about to be expelled from the outer gate at the outer gate.
There is also the support of a group of monks from the Divine Sword Sect Refining Hall for the Galaxy Science and Technology City.
Compared with the contributions he made, the benefits he received were nothing, and there was no problem of abusing power for personal gain and enriching his pockets.
They are still willing to have such a leader.
Xu Shentong's request was not his idea alone, it was the voice of many monks of the Divine Sword Sect.
Keeping Zhong Yuan in the Divine Sword Sect and continuing to be the head of the sect will benefit them and do no harm.
The elder council system proposed by Zhong Yuan himself, he can't overthrow it by himself, the sect has major matters, and everyone makes decisions together, and Zhong Yuan is in the elders' council, he is the only one, and he has not yet the right to nominate honorary elders, so he doesn't have to worry about his excessive power and covering the sky with one hand.
The stay of such a monk in the late stage of the Transformation of God in the Divine Sword Sect is enough for the Divine Sword Sect to be upgraded to a medium sect, and the scale of the Spirit Gathering Array can be increased, which will bring great benefits to the disciples of the sect.
In this area, a god-transforming monk is already a huge protective umbrella, not to mention that Zhong Yuan is still a god-transforming monk in the late stage.
They were not polite, but sincerely hoped that Zhong Yuan would stay and be their leader.
"As soon as the deadline is up, I should go. Zhong Yuan shook his head and said, "My biggest idea now is to promote my science and technology city, so that those science and technology can benefit mankind and make all people in this world live happier." ”
After saying this kind of pretending words, he said: "Lan Ying, I don't think there is anything wrong with her being the head, although she is now spending all her energy on Phoenix Science and Technology City, and she doesn't take much care of the affairs of the Divine Sword Sect, but this is also a good thing." It is a lucky thing for the sect to have such a detached leader. ”
He said this in a vague way, but everyone understood it.
Although Lan Ying doesn't care about things, she also has the advantage that she doesn't care about things, so that she won't get involved in the battle between the two major factions, which is not a good thing for the Divine Sword Sect.
Otherwise, these two major factions, no matter who is in charge, the other faction will not be convinced, and the rift that is not easy to be bridged by modifying the basic exercises will become bigger and bigger, causing a split in the sect.
"After the head leaves the Divine Sword Sect, how long will he stay in this area?"
Such a question was raised.
This is also very important to them, because Zhong Yuan and the Divine Sword Sect have a relationship of decades after all, and as long as he is still in this area, he can provide protection to the Divine Sword Sect.
If he leaves this area, I'm afraid that the Divine Sword Sect will usher in the great enemy of Fulongguan.
Everyone is not stupid, the Divine Sword Sect is in the way of whom, and who has become a threat, they all know in their hearts.
The reason why Fu Longguan was still friendly with the Divine Sword Sect after the death of Qing Yingzi was clear to everyone was not because the Wind Cutting Dao people remembered their old feelings, but because they were afraid of Zhong Yuan's pressure and did not want to be enemies with Zhong Yuan.
If Zhong Yuan leaves, I don't know what kind of state it will be.
"I'm going to stay in this area forever. Zhong Yuan said, "There is only one situation that I will leave here, and that is that this place has been controlled by the Ten Thousand Souls Sect. ”
His reply relieved the monks.
As long as he continues to stay in this area, he can continue to shelter the Divine Sword Sect, and if the monks of the Divine Sword Sect work hard enough to have a god-transforming monk appear within one or two hundred years, then they will be able to gain a firm foothold in this area completely.
After Zhong Yuan left, Lan Ying, the head disciple of the Divine Sword Sect, naturally became the new head of the Divine Sword Sect.
However, Lan Ying is not in Chen Jianzhong, but in her Phoenix Science and Technology City.
found Lan Ying and passed on the master's token, Zhong Yuan volunteered.
After he left, everyone was a little depressed.
Not only did this umbrella leave the Divine Sword Sect, Zhong Yuan finally mentioned the matter of the Ten Thousand Souls Sect, which also reminded them of the situation after Chi Moran took the Enlightenment Dao Pill.
More than a year after he stopped taking it, the scene of absent-mindedness and disobedience is still vivid, and it is almost certain that his path to cultivation has been ruined.
So far, they haven't heard of any sect exposing the Enlightenment Pill to have a great bad effect, and they all feel that something is not good.
Zhong Yuan said such a thing, which shows that he is not very optimistic about this matter.
Chi Moran was also here, and his mood was even more depressed.
The Enlightenment Pill can indeed make people's minds clearer a lot, but the side effects after stopping taking it made him scared when he thought about it, and it became a knot in his heart.
What's even more depressing is that the price of the Enlightenment Pill has risen a little bit compared to before, from five thousand spirit stones to six thousand each, and I don't know if it was the Ten Thousand Souls Sect that increased the price, or the Chunshui Hall that increased the price.
Then he discovered an even more terrifying thing - the monks who took the Enlightenment Pill had no resistance to this kind of price increase.
Not to mention that it has risen to 6,000 spirit stones, even if it rises to 60,000 spirit stones, he can only buy them obediently.
What about 600,000?
He just doesn't have that many spirit stones, and he will probably try his best to scrape together enough to buy one.
What else could it be?
He purchased dozens of Enlightenment Pills this time, but he could only take them for a few decades at most, and he had to buy them next.
With the financial resources of a Yuanying cultivator, a few thousand spirit stones a year is indeed nothing, and it can be done easily.
But if it continues to rise, it will be difficult to say.
After his disciple brought him this batch of Enlightenment Pills and told him that the price of Enlightenment Pills had increased, he realized the seriousness of the matter, took out more than three million spirit stones that he had saved up with great difficulty, handed them to this disciple, and said to him:
"You take these spirit stones, buy them all for me, no matter what the price, you buy it. ”
What he was thinking about was hoarding the Enlightenment Pill.
Not to make a fortune by reselling, but to ensure that you can take this pill for hundreds of years to come.
According to the price of six thousand spirit stones, his spirit stones can almost buy about six hundred Enlightenment Pills.
If you take one tablet a year, you can take it for 600 years.
If he can't break through to the realm of transforming gods, the remaining longevity is less than six hundred years, and these pills can be taken with him all the time.
That disciple of his, a Jindan peak cultivator, would take several months to make a round trip to Zhiguo.
The disciples of the Divine Sword Sect are generally poor, especially the original Divine Sword Sect's lineage, during the time they were hiding in Tibet, they had already spent their savings, and later although the Divine Sword Sect was a little more generous, the resources distributed by the sect were basically only enough for their own cultivation.
This disciple is not as tyrant as Gong Shengnan, he comes and goes and controls the magic weapon-level flying boat, and can fly quickly.
Of course, Edgeworth's flight is faster than that of a flying boat, but it consumes too much mana, and flying at full speed for a few hours will require a long time of cultivation to fill up mana.
For such a long journey, it was obviously unrealistic for a Jindan monk Edgeworth to fly past.
He can only use a spirit weapon-level flying boat to travel, which is more economical than spirit stones, but the speed is much slower.
It takes four or five months to travel hundreds of thousands of miles back and forth.
When this disciple came to Zhiguo again, and came to the Enlightenment Pill to buy the Enlightenment Pill in the only regular sales channel in the Zhiguo Kingdom, Chunshui Pavilion, he heard a news that he was very unwilling to hear - the price of the Enlightenment Pill had increased again.
This time, instead of rising by 1,000 spirit stones, it directly rose to 10,000 spirit stones.
He was anxious, and reasoned with the guy: "It's only been a few months, why has it risen so much?"
The guy shrugged his shoulders: "News from the Ten Thousand Souls Sect - because there are too many people buying this elixir, the raw materials are tight, and the price has to be raised." If it raises the price there, we have to follow the price increase. ”
"That's too much, isn't it?" the disciple said.
"It's not high? It's not high at all compared to its effect. "At this price, there are still people who buy a lot of money, and the higher the price, the more they buy." Brother, I can honestly tell you that this price is far from the top, and the next time you come over, it may not be 10,000 spirit stones, but 30,000 or even 50,000 spirit stones. Do you think those people will buy it? I tell you, they will continue to buy it!"
The disciple muttered in his heart: "Isn't that nonsense, you can't get rid of it after taking this elixir, as long as you have a spirit stone, you will definitely continue to buy it." ”
The disciples of the Divine Sword Sect all knew about this matter, but they had also received a warning from the sect that they could not tell about this matter, otherwise it would bring disaster to the sect.
Thinking about it, what the guy said also makes sense, if you don't buy it this time, maybe it will really rise higher next time, and you will be even more unaffordable.
So he gritted his teeth and said, "I have three million seven hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones here, so you can get me three hundred and seventy-five Enlightenment Pills." ”
"Okay," the man said loudly, "Please, shopkeeper, there are guests here who want to buy three hundred and seventy-five Enlightenment Pills." ”
With such a big business, he can't trade with a buddy, so he has to let the shopkeeper come forward.
I was also sighing in my heart for the magic of the Enlightenment Pill.
In the early years, when the Wudao Pill first entered the territory of Zhiguo, it was not so easy to sell, and every time a guest came, they had to be responsible for selling this pill to the guests, and the commission assigned to them by the sect was quite high.
At that time, there weren't many Enlightenment Pills that could be sold in a year.
But within a few years, that situation changed a lot, and those who bought it basically came back and bought it, and some of them would introduce other monks to buy it.
First, they relied on their tireless sales to open up the situation, and then they relied on word-of-mouth to ferment, and later, they no longer needed to take the initiative to sell to customers, and often monks would take the initiative to come and buy.
In just a few years, the Enlightenment Pill had become Chunshui Tang's biggest source of profit, far exceeding all the other items they had sold combined.
The reputation of this elixir was so good that he even thought that when he reached the Yuanying realm, he would have to buy a few pills and take them to see what kind of magic power he had.
A few months ago, when the people of Chunshui Hall went to the Wanling Sect to get medicine, the Wanling Sect announced that it would increase the price of one thousand spirit stones on the basis of the original price, and Chunshui Hall had no choice but to follow suit.
At first, they were a little apprehensive, afraid that this would cause the loss of those regular customers and affect the sales of Wudao Dan.
But the truth was not what they expected.
After the price increase, the number of people buying did not decrease, but skyrocketed.
Because those monks all thought of a question - this elixir is so important, what should they do if the price continues to rise in the future?
The answer is yes – keep buying, of course.
How can you not continue to buy such a good elixir?
In order to prevent the price from rising even more outrageously in the future, the best way is to stock up while the price is still acceptable.
When the price did not rise, because I did not expect it to rise, there was no sense of crisis, so everyone bought as usual.
This time the sudden price increase aroused the sense of crisis of those monks, and they bought even more fiercely, and they couldn't wait to buy enough of the Enlightenment Pill they needed in this life at one time, so that they could laugh at the price increase.
As a result, the sales of Wudao Dan soared, which surprised the top management of Chunshui Hall.
But it didn't take long to figure it out.
While going to the Ten Thousand Souls Sect to continue to purchase goods, and purchasing in large quantities, on the other hand, on the grounds that the Ten Thousand Souls Sect increased the price, the price was raised by another thousand spirit stones, to seven thousand spirit stones.
It continues to sell well, and there are more people stocking up.
So the price was raised by another thousand spirit stones, to eight thousand spirit stones.
It didn't affect sales.
So the price was raised by 1,000 spirit stones, reaching 9,000 spirit stones.
More people are buying.
Some monks who didn't take this pill also came to buy it, they haven't reached the level where they need to take the Enlightenment Pill, and they only have one purpose to buy this - to hoard, wait for the price to continue to rise, and then sell it to make a difference.
A new profession has emerged in this Xiuzhenfang city, called fried dan.
The price of the Enlightenment Pill was forcibly speculated to 10,000 spirit stones, and no one knows what kind of level it will rise in the future.
The price has risen too fast, which can already be described as crazy, but the people of Chunshuitang are happy.
