The Underworld Supermarket Opens! Even Sages Fight for Sales!

Zhen Yuanzi's "Fruit Basket Hall" has been completed.

Hong Yun's "Healing Sofa Hall" has also opened.

The two temples, with their vastly different styles, added two more vibrant strokes to this increasingly bizarre and fantastical underworld landscape.

Zhen Yuanzi stood before the enormous, fragrant basket of vines, stroking his beard, his old face radiating undisguised satisfaction.

He had already come up with a resounding slogan for his new temple.

"Underworld Fruit Industry, leading the way in freshness!"

"Your merit deserves the best bite!"

He even began to consider whether to establish a testing ground specifically to develop "spicy Ginseng Fruit" and "cumin-flavored Yellow Middle Plum" to precisely target the taste preferences of different deceased souls.

On the other side, Ancestor Hong Yun was comfortably nestled in his large cloud-patterned sofa.

Several bunny-shaped cloud-shaped cushions rolled around him, affectionately rubbing against his Daoist robe.

He felt he had found the most perfect path in his life.

Do not compete, do not grab.

Just lie there, chat with the ghosts, tell them Primordial World Secrets, and maybe even coax them into reincarnating.

This job is practically tailor-made for a nice, easygoing guy like him!

The massive infrastructure construction boom in the underworld seems to have come to an end.

However, everyone underestimated the potential for involution among these top beings of the Primordial World, driven by the two primordial forces of "pleasing the Great Dao" and "competing for merit."

Ancestral Dragon was the first to sense the business opportunity.

He stared at Zhen Yuanzi's thriving "fruit basket," where countless meritorious souls lined up to pick fruit, and a glint of light flashed in his dragon eyes.

Is it acceptable to have only fruit and no drinks?

The next moment, the roar of the Ancestral Dragon, carrying divine thoughts, exploded like thunder throughout the entire "River of Forgetfulness Water Park"!

"Our Dragon Clan hereby launches the 'River of Forgetfulness Special Drink' series!"

"Based on millennia-old mystic ice, blended using secret Dragon Clan techniques, it boasts a refreshing taste with a sweet aftertaste!"

"Furthermore, there are many other flavors to choose from, such as 'Past Dreams,' 'Future Hopes,' and 'Meng Po's Special Blend'!"

"With your 'Rapids Ride' ticket stub, get your second drink half price!"

This shout directly ushered in a new chapter in the commercialization of the underworld.

Yuanfeng was not about to fall behind.

A clear, melodious phoenix cry, carrying an innate nobility, instantly overshadowed the dragon's roar.

"Just eating and drinking is too vulgar."

"Our Phoenix Clan has opened the 'Nirvana SPA' center by the Bridge of Bridge of Helplessness!"

"Using the Southern Bright Leaving Fire as a guide and supplemented by the Seven-Colored Divine Feathers, we provide the most superior 'Soul Purification' service for all your noble souls!"

"It can effectively reduce the 'Karma Black Mark' and enhance the luster of your soul, making you the most dazzling one on your journey to reincarnation!"

"We are now launching a 'Ten Cleansing Treatments, One Deep Cleansing Treatment Free' promotion. Limited spots available, first come, first served!"

Primordial Kirin saw this, it also became anxious.

For the first time, a businessman's shrewdness appeared on his honest face.

"What's the use of just being pretty? Your destiny in the next life is what truly matters!"

"Our Qilin Clan's 'Future Planning VIP Consulting Center' is officially open!"

"With the personal supervision of our clan elders, and taking into account your life's merits and demerits as well as the 'wish data' from the Three-Life Stone, we will provide you with the most professional and scientific 'Reincarnation Path' planning!"

"Will you choose to become a Demon King, or dedicate yourself to cultivation and become a disciple of Sage? We'll use big data to tell you which path has the highest success rate!"

The first ten people to consult will receive a free 'Primordial Hot Profession Analysis Report'!

In an instant, the entire atmosphere of the underworld completely spiraled out of control.

This is no longer a transit point for reincarnation.

It has been transformed into a super commercial complex integrating catering, beauty, and education consulting!

Each department and each Yama's Palace has become an independent commercial brand, resorting to any means to compete for customers (the souls of the dead) and to boost performance (merit).

Zhurong and the other Ancestral Witch were also suddenly jolted awake from their identity as a construction team.

They discovered that earning "Merit Star" by working as security guards and henchmen for the underworld was far too slow!

So, after some discussion, they decided to launch paid features directly within Fuxi's "Metaverse".

Want to experience the thrill of smashing Chaos Demon Gods with a single punch?

"Want to learn the purest Pangu Body Forging Technique?"

"Witch Tribe Online Gym Grand Opening Special! Gold Medal Coach like Zhurong and Gonggong will personally teach and guide you online!"

Purchase an annual membership and instantly receive a drop of 'Ancestral Shaman Essence Blood Trial Version'! Let your Virtual Dao Body possess world-destroying power!

Even the Daoist Duobao, who had been quietly amassing his fortune, peeked out from his glittering treasure vault.

He discovered that although the amount of unclaimed spiritual treasures recovered through "confiscation" was large, there would eventually be a day when the reserves would be depleted.

We must develop new businesses!

So he hung a huge sign made of innate Innate Spiritual Treasure directly at the entrance of the treasure vault.

"Duobao Pawn Shop with integrity, treating everyone fairly, young and old!"

"Struggling with cash? Not enough merit? No problem! Your magical treasures, elixirs, and cave dwelling deeds from your lifetime can all be pawned!"

"Choose between life and death, the choice is yours! Lowest interest rate in the entire underworld!"

"We also offer a 'Spiritual Treasure Rental' service! With just a small deposit, you can rent Innate Spiritual Treasure to show off in the Metaverse! Make yourself the center of attention right at the entrance of the dungeon!"

This completely closed the commercial ecosystem of the entire underworld.

From the welcoming ceremony at the entrance, to the payment of donations, to the Theme Park, to dining and beauty, to online entertainment, and finally to financial lending...

A complete one-stop service, everything is arranged perfectly.

Lin Shen sat on the huge red sofa, looking at the scene before him that was a hundred times more bustling than the "market town" at the Kunlun Mountain, his mouth agape in an "O" shape.

He doesn't understand business or KPIs.

All he knew was that it was lively and fun here.

Every uncle and aunt is trying their best to make those "gray-haired kids" happy.

That's enough.

However, within this seemingly harmonious and prosperous business competition...

A new problem has quietly emerged.

Fuxi's "Reincarnation Metaverse" quickly became the most popular project in the entire underworld due to its extremely rich and free content.

Countless souls became addicted to it, grinding dungeons, completing quests, and socializing day and night.

They even began trading within the Metaverse using "Virtual Eight Trigrams Coin" issued by Fuxi, forming an independent economic system.

This has directly led to a decrease in the number of people who choose to shop in physical stores.

At the entrance of Ancestral Dragon's "Rapids Ride", there were more dragons than ghosts queuing up.

At Yuanfeng's "Nirvana SPA," the technicians are so bored they're playing cards with Southern Bright Leaving Fire).

Zhen Yuanzi's "fruit basket" was deserted; many ripe fruits fell to the ground, but no one paid any attention to them.

The physical industries have been dealt Dimensional Strike by online entertainment!

"Fuxi! You old bastard! Give me back my customers!"

In an instant, a terrifying dragon's might surged into the sky from the River of Forgetfulness!

The Ancestral Dragon's head, which blotted out the sky, almost touched the bridge of Fuxi's nose.

A Sage business battle, sparked by the competition between "online" and "offline" traffic, has begun!
