The headquarters of the Cangmang Chamber of Commerce was located in Shang Province, a large sacred domain jointly opened up by the chamber's upper echelons.
Among the many Dao Masters of the Cangmang Chamber of Commerce, Dao Master Qian Feng stood at the head. His cultivation was in no way inferior to Soul Heaven, patriarch of the Soul Clan, or Shi Cangqiong, patriarch of the Soul Devouring Clan. He was a true peak Dao Master.
It was precisely because Dao Master Qian Feng was stationed there that the Cangmang Chamber of Commerce had stood firm in the Vast True Realm for countless years without decline.
At this moment, all the chamber's Dao Masters had gathered at headquarters, including important figures such as Wind Soul Dao Master and Yuan Feng Dao Master, who had presided over the auction.
Before Dao Master Qian Feng, these Dao Masters showed not the slightest disrespect.
Though they were all in the Dao Master realm, the gap in their strength was enormous, like the difference between Supreme Experts and ordinary Sacred Gods in the Endless Sacred Domain—perhaps even greater.
In the Dao Master realm, even the slightest improvement could bring about a tremendous leap in strength.
In the Vast True Realm, every peak Dao Master was an important figure who stabilized the foundations of their faction.
If every Dao Master of the Cangmang Chamber of Commerce perished but Dao Master Qian Feng remained, the chamber could still retain its status as a top-tier power. But if the other Dao Masters survived while Dao Master Qian Feng alone fell, the chamber would swiftly drop from the ranks of top-tier powers. It might even be besieged by various factions at once and ultimately meet its destruction.
This showed just how important peak Dao Masters were to major powers.
