The Immortal Market of Kunlun Mountains Defined, Qingyuan Debates the Immortals! Guangchengzi, Do You Question Senior Uncle Yuanshi?

"I imagine you're all quite curious about what I mean by an Immortal Market?"

"What is an Immortal Market?"

"Immortal refers to the gathering place for the spirits of us who have attained the Dao and become immortals, while Market is a district of streets and bazaars."

"Combining the two, it becomes the first large-scale functional city in the Primordial World for mutual exchange and trade, built by immortals!"

"Within the Immortal Market, our Xuanmen traditions—the Human Sect, Chan Sect, Jie Sect, and other Xuanmen lineages—will jointly establish a colossal entity unifying administration, economy, culture, and transportation, promoting Xuanmen culture and educating all beings in the Primordial World!!!"

"In the Immortal Market, any living being can freely trade, work, settle, make friends, auction, set up stalls, post bounties, exchange... no matter what it is, whether you can think of it or not, if it exists, it will be in the Kunlun Mountains Immortal Market!"

"If you want to trade away idle items you no longer need, you can exchange information on Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or Miraculous Pills and Potions. If you want someone to guide you in spells and divine abilities, if you're searching for a certain technique, a certain person, a spiritual herb, or equipment, if you want to cultivate and live in the most stable and peaceful place, if you want to make friends and seek the Dao, if you want to hire someone to refine tools or alchemy..."

"In the Immortal Market, anything can be done!!"

"No living being will ever need to spend vast amounts of time hunting for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, nor risk their lives doing dangerous things!"

"And within the Immortal Market, killing is forbidden. Anyone who dares commit murder will face consequences—at the lightest, suppression and permanent banishment; at the worst, immediate annihilation, body and Dao destroyed!!"

Jiangyue River, by the bank.

The disciples of the three sects listened quietly as the Youth in Black on the Chaos Spirit Stone introduced the Immortal Market.

They were plunged into shock.

This, this, this...

Could something like this really be created?

As Qingyuan's voice fell.

The Jiangyue River erupted with wave after wave of clamor, shaking the heavens and shattering the clouds.

Whether disciples of the Human Sect, disciples of the Chan Sect, or disciples of the Jie Sect, all were discussing the Immortal Market in shock and longing!!

The Immortal Market... though they had never heard of it or seen it, the blueprint painted by Senior Disciple Brother filled them with anticipation and yearning, making them wish they could immediately go to the Immortal Market and experience such a life.

Was there truly a peaceful place for free trade, settlement, work, making friends, and seeking the Dao?

After all, the outside Primordial World was in chaos right now.

Di Jun and Tai Yi had established the Heavenly Court, waging war everywhere against Innate God-Demons, Primordial Exotic Species, and powerful beings, collecting a strand of their Primordial Spirit into the Ten Thousand Demons Banner, endlessly subduing the Demon Race across the Primordial World, making the Heavenly Court's prestige immense.

Rumor had it that they were recently planning to establish three hundred and sixty Demon Gods to occupy the Primordial Stars, channeling the chaotic starlight of the Primordial Stars to the Heavenly Court to set up some great formation.

The Heavenly Court's momentum was unimaginably vast.

Meanwhile, the Witch Clan devoured the Demon Race at a rapid pace. With their formidable physical bodies, cultivating only their flesh and not their Primordial Spirit, the witches had few natural enemies on the Primordial Earth.

The development of these two colossal entities had intensified the friction between the Demon Race and the Witch Clan.

This led to a constant influx of Demon Gods from the Demon Race into the fray, with even Demon Saints taking the lead.

They fought fiercely across the Primordial Earth, plunging the outside world into chaos, with the smoke of war spreading everywhere.

Even as saints' disciples, they dared not easily leave Kunlun Mountains at such a time.

If there really could be a place like the Immortal Market within Kunlun Mountains, the future wouldn't be dull after all!!

Qingyuan suddenly fixed his gaze on a bear-type Jie Sect disciple who was deep in discussion.

He smiled and said to him, "Have you ever stumbled upon a Heavenly Material or Earthly Treasure by chance, but dared not sell it because you didn't know its value and feared bringing trouble upon yourself?"

The Bear Spirit Junior Disciple scratched his head sheepishly and said, "Senior Disciple Brother, I have."

The Jie Sect had too many disciples.

Although the Inspection Department was fearsome in the eyes of the disciples, its numbers were small.

Investigating cases was no easy task either.

On top of that, too many motley characters had joined the Jie Sect. Some disciples didn't even have a brain, truly acting on impulse to kill and seize treasures.

Even if they were executed afterward, they never concealed their violent and ruthless nature.

This made many honest Jie Sect disciples afraid to reveal the good things they had on them in daily life.

Qingyuan's voice boomed: "Once the Immortal Market is built, the Heavenly Net will patrol every street and alley at all times, putting an end to murder for treasure and bullying of the weak. You can trade freely. If anyone still dares to bully you, come to Serene Peak, and I'll have your back!"

"Thank you, Senior Disciple Brother!" The bear demon bowed in thanks.

"This junior disciple, have you ever faced the trouble of wanting to learn a certain spell or divine ability but finding no one to teach you?"

"The Immortal Market will later offer Tutoring Classes. As long as you pay Immortal Crystals, you can hire cultivators to help. Mystic Immortals, Golden Immortals, Primordial Unity Golden Immortals, Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals... as long as you have Immortal Crystals, you can invite them to guide you!"

"This junior sister, have you ever felt disheartened and lost about your future because you lack background, fortune, or resources?"

"You can go find a job you like in the Immortal Market, clock in at 996—I'll fully implement all employee benefits there. You should give it a try!"

"Junior Disciple, I see you have an extraordinary bone structure and an uncommon origin, but the cultivation method you practice doesn't suit you. Have you ever thought about switching to a more fitting path of cultivation..."

As Qingyuan pointed at one Jie Sect disciple after another in the crowd, he spoke of the wonders of the Immortal Market.

More and more disciples came to accept it, yearned for it, and wished they could live that life the Senior Disciple Brother described so perfectly—right into their hearts!!

Daoist Duobao had been 'subdued' by Qingyuan not long ago, so naturally, he didn't step out to cause trouble.

Golden Spirit Holy Mother, Wudang Holy Mother, Qiushou Xian, Jinguang Xian, Piluxian, Shi Ji, Ma Yuan, Yun Zhongzi, Wuzhiqi, Yuan Hong—all the top experts and elite disciples of the Jie Sect—

needless to say, they voiced their full support.

Within the Human Sect, Great Master Xuandu and the Gold and Silver Boy were whispering among themselves, both finding it agreeable.

Zhenwu and Du'e were ascetic cultivators who had no interest in this and didn't object.

On the contrary, from the Chan Sect came all kinds of scorn and dissent.

They disagreed with establishing the Kunlun Mountains Immortal Market.

After some internal discussion, the Chan Sect Immortals flew into the air one after another.

Guangchengzi spoke first, sneering coldly: "Senior Disciple Brother Qingyuan, what benefit does building an Immortal Market bring to our Xuan Sect?"

"The Kunlun Mountains are a sacred cultivation ground of the Primordial Wilderness, and also the dojo of our master, the Saint—the orthodox seat of the Xuan Sect. If you attract a massive gathering of living beings, won't it turn Kunlun into a chaotic, smoky mess?"

"Exactly!"

True Person Taiyi stepped forward and mocked: "The countless beings of the Primordial Wilderness are unenlightened—mere wet-born, egg-hatched beasts, covered in fur and crowned with horns, savage and unruly, knowing no rules. I think before your Immortal Market is even built, you'll only stir up a stinking mess for yourself!!"

"Both Senior Disciple Brothers speak well. Besides, we Chan Sect Immortals have extraordinary origins, deep blessings, and are born with great fortune. How could we lack cultivation resources or divine techniques?"

Daoist Huanglong sneered with contempt: "Setting up an Immortal Market—aside from disturbing the peace—I see no use for it at all!!"

At these words, a flood of Jie Sect disciples erupted in fury, pointing at the Chan Sect Immortals and shouting curses.

What 'fur-covered, horned beasts.'

What 'cruel and lawless.'

What 'defiling the sacred Kunlun and turning it into a smoky mess.'

Weren't these bastards just insulting them by innuendo!!!

"Silence!!"

Qingyuan barked.

The Law of Swordsmanship, like the Sword Great Dao Law, projected a river from the distant chaos, and a terrifying Sword Qi, sharp and unstoppable, appeared in the sky!

His vast, ferocious Golden Immortal aura swept across the eight directions like a raging storm, suppressing all dissent!!

On the scene, Great Master Xuandu of the Human Sect's expression shifted slightly, unable to believe that Qingyuan, also at Golden Immortal Middle Stage, possessed such profound foundations!!

Without a set of spirit treasures, Qingyuan could probably thrash dozens of him, right?

Guangchengzi, Immortal Elder Nanji, Chijingzi—all the Golden Immortals felt bitter inside.

They had cultivated in seclusion at Kunlun for so many years, yet couldn't compare to Qingyuan, who had been 'traveling and enjoying the scenery' across the Primordial Wilderness.

Even Daoist Randeng narrowed his eyes, unable to believe Qingyuan carried such deep foundations—likely even an ordinary Taiyi couldn't defeat Qingyuan, his junior nephew, right??

But thinking it over, he understood.

Seeing the scene quiet down, Qingyuan finally looked at Guangchengzi and smiled: "Junior Disciple Guangchengzi, you worry too much."

"The Dao Ancestor's Three Lectures at Zixiao Palace sorted out the cultivation realms of the Primordial Wilderness and spread the Dao to all beings—that was the merit of teaching and resolving doubts."

"Establishing the Immortal Market advocates peaceful coexistence and educates the beings of the Primordial Wilderness to yearn for freedom, equality, and harmony—this too is a blessing of civilizing all beings. It aligns with Second Martial Uncle's way of following Heaven's path to teach and transform all things. I once sought Second Martial Uncle's approval to build the Immortal Market, and he agreed."

"So how did it become something so unworthy in your mouth?"

"Or do you think your Dao is greater than Second Martial Uncle's?"

At these words, Guangchengzi's face changed color completely.

He hurriedly descended to the ground, knelt, and kowtowed toward the direction of Yuqing Peak, pressing his forehead to the earth, not daring to rise!!

Seeing this scene, the faces of the Chan Sect immortals darkened.

What was going on?

Could it be that this Qingyuan of the Jie Sect was their bane?

No matter how they targeted him, not only could they not suppress him, but in the end, they were the ones left disgraced???
