Chonglou was irritated. He felt like he was being discriminated against!
What was wrong with the Demonic Path?!
Not only did the Demonic Path cultivate faster, its combat power was nothing to scoff at either!!!
Maoshan Celestial Master: Ahem, Demon Lord, you want a Daoist like me, who slays demons and eliminates evil, to join the Demonic Path? That really puts me in a difficult position.
Lord of the Moon Sect: Demon Lord, I wish to exchange Sacred Spirit Stones for Demonic Path cultivation methods and resources!
Lord of the Moon Sect declared that it was his turn to take the stage.
Previously, because they came from the same world, Chonglou had given Lord of the Moon Sect quite a few cultivation methods and resources. Well, they were all Demonic Path cultivation methods and Demonic Path resources.
Lord of the Moon Sect did not care whether it was the Immortal Path or the Demonic Path. He directly cultivated the Demonic Path technique Chonglou had given him and entered the Demonic Path.
Demon Lord: Mm, Jieren, you are quite good. I like you very much! (satisfied smile.jpg)
Jieren was Lord of the Moon Sect's name. His full name was Shi Jieren.
When Lord of the Moon Sect saw Chonglou's words, he smiled faintly. This was within his expectations.
After all, he was the first—and only—person to trade with the Demon Lord. He would definitely receive the greatest benefits.
Demon Lord: You are already a Celestial Immortal. Then I shall give you the complete version of the finest Demonic Path cultivation method, one that can be cultivated all the way to the Grand Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Demon Lord: In addition, I will cover all the resources you need to cultivate to the Grand Golden Immortal realm!
Chonglou's extravagant generosity left everyone dumbfounded.
Wasn't this far too generous?!
Not only was he giving away a complete top-tier cultivation method, he was directly guaranteeing Grand Golden Immortal cultivation too!
Lin Jiu and Xiongba instantly felt that the Immortal Path was no longer quite so appealing.
If possible, joining the Demonic Path would not be a problem either!
Of course, that was just a joke. Xiongba was hard to say, but no matter what, Lin Jiu would never enter the Demonic Path. That was his bottom line.
Lord of the Moon Sect: The Demon Lord is mighty! Thank you, Demon Lord!!!
Lord of the Moon Sect was over the moon. The corners of his mouth split into the widest grin, giving him the distinct air of a crooked-mouthed Dragon King.
He knew it!
This was the importance of timing!
Thank you, Lin Jiu. Thank you, Xiongba. You gave me this opportunity!
Now, he was practically guaranteed a place in the Grand Golden Immortal realm too!
He no longer needed to spend time and energy obtaining cultivation resources. He could devote himself wholeheartedly to scientific research!
Mm, Lord of the Moon Sect thought he was truly a genius!
Afterward, Li Hanyi, Lin Jiu, Xiongba, and Lord of the Moon Sect all sent the Sacred Spirit Stones in their possession to Yang Jian and Chonglou through red packets. Yang Jian and Chonglou likewise gave the three of them corresponding cultivation methods and resources.
Since they all had personal storage spaces, the four of them did not worry about having nowhere to store such enormous quantities of resources.
Although one hundred cubic meters of space definitely would not be enough, couldn't they spend Spirit Stones to expand it?!
With their arms full of cultivation resources, the four were filled with hope for the future!
Crown Prince Changqin: I am a Grand Luo Golden Immortal too... (wronged.jpg)
Changqin said that he was also a Grand Luo Golden Immortal. Why was no one coming to him to buy cultivation methods and cultivation resources?
Call Me Group Master: Crown Prince Changqin, are you sure you have top-tier cultivation methods and that many resources? (eye roll.jpg)
Crown Prince Changqin: Fine, I do not...
Changqin wanted to cry but had no tears. He had previously merely been an ordinary musician of the Heaven Realm. His temperament was quiet and gentle, and he usually lived in seclusion on Yaoshan Mountain, taking pleasure in the zither, with all the air of someone who had given up and chosen to lie flat.
The reason he became a Grand Luo Golden Immortal was also because his true form, the Fenglai Zither, fused with the Li Fire Pearl and was directly carried to greater heights.
He had neither top-tier cultivation methods nor vast cultivation resources.
He could be called the poorest Grand Luo Golden Immortal!
Call Me Group Master: @Lord of Divine Law; True Lord, I want a package too. (rubbing hands.jpg)
Lord of Divine Law: Hm? Group Master, your Foundation Establishment Immortal Ascension Method is already among the finest, and your resources are enough to cultivate to the Celestial Immortal realm.
Call Me Group Master: Only Grand Luo Golden Immortals can refine Sacred Spirit Stones. They are completely useless to me right now, so I might as well exchange them for cultivation resources.
Shi Yueyao did not want to leave the Sacred Spirit Stones sitting around collecting dust. Besides, there were only a few of them, so there was not much point in saving them.
She was not stupid. Naturally, she knew how to maximize her gains.
Sacred Spirit Stones were at their most valuable right now!
Lord of Divine Law: That is true. Then, Group Master, I shall give you the first four levels of the Jade Purity Immortal Method and enough resources to cultivate to the Grand Golden Immortal realm.
Call Me Group Master: Mm-hmm! Thank you, True Lord! (silly grin.jpg)
The two soon completed the transaction.
The four levels of the Jade Purity Immortal Method were enough to cultivate to the Grand Golden Immortal realm.
The Jade Purity Immortal Method had seven levels in total and was a cultivation method that could reach the Half-Sage realm. However, that was only theoretical.
Because aside from Yuanshi Tianzun, no one in the Chan Sect had broken through to the Half-Sage realm.
Three Corpses Unification led to the Half-Sage realm. Yuanshi Tianzun had not reached the Half-Sage realm back then either. Instead, after slaying the Three Corpses and reaching the late Quasi-Sage stage, he directly attained sainthood through merit.
Relying on merit and Primordial Violet Qi, he directly skipped over the Half-Sage realm.
Grand Luo Golden Immortals needed to comprehend Source Laws, so cultivation methods were not actually that important.
Furthermore, to slay the Three Corpses, one also needed Innate Spiritual Treasures. One simply could not break through to the Quasi-Sage realm through cultivation methods alone.
As for achieving Three Corpses Unification, that was even harder. One needed three Innate Spiritual Treasures with the same origin to sever the Three Corpses. Only then was it possible to unite them.
Hongjun had never told his disciples this secret back then.
That was the unique nature of the Three Corpses Path to Enlightenment.
On Bai Yu's side, he naturally saw Lin Jiu and the others exchanging Sacred Spirit Stones for cultivation methods and resources, but he said nothing. It was their own choice, and it was the correct one.
As for Lord of the Moon Sect and Crown Prince Changqin's suggestion of allowing the three currencies to be exchanged with one another?
After considering it carefully, Bai Yu still decided against it.
Although the difference between Spirit Stones and Immortal Spirit Stones was quite large, it was not so great that they could not be exchanged for each other.
But the gap between Immortal Spirit Stones and Sacred Spirit Stones was truly enormous—far greater than the difference between clouds and mud!
Their very natures were even completely different.
Immortal Spirit Stones merely contained Innate Spiritual Energy. They were only the most basic type of resource.
Even in an ordinary cultivation world, there were treasures that could not be bought with Spirit Stones.
But what about Sacred Spirit Stones?
They were supreme treasures that could aid in comprehending Source Laws!
How could spiritual energy possibly compare to them?
Moreover, Bai Yu was genuinely worried that if he opened up exchange privileges, Chonglou might actually sell off his entire world!
As for Yang Jian? He had the will but lacked the power. After all, there were still Heavenly Dao Sages above him. Even if he wanted to sell, he could not!
Looking at the already fully stocked Group Mall, Bai Yu prepared to hand out another small round of benefits.
He also wanted to stimulate the market first.
There was no need for him to stimulate the markets for Spirit Stones and Immortal Spirit Stones. They were already quite lively.
But there was no market at all for Sacred Spirit Stones. After all, Yang Jian and the others' only current source of Sacred Spirit Stones was the annual sign-in check-in.
Thus, Bai Yu directly cleared out everyone's shops and bought every repeatable piece of knowledge, such as cultivation methods and divine abilities.
As a result, Yang Jian and Chonglou both gained a considerable number of Sacred Spirit Stones.
After all, for Grand Luo Golden Immortal-level treasures, cultivation methods, and divine abilities, Yang Jian and Chonglou had set them to be purchasable only with Sacred Spirit Stones.
Sacred Spirit Stones were the only currency for Grand Luo Golden Immortals like Yang Jian and the others!
