Immortal Arts Xuanling Street

Immortal Alliance City.

Cheng Buzheng strolled along the bustling street, moving forward at an unhurried pace.

A short while later.

He turned a corner and arrived on a street lined with shops!

The shops along this street were almost all talisman shops, Spirit Pill pavilions, artifact refineries, formation towers... and so on!

They were all shops specializing in various Immortal Arts.

This was not something those general Stores selling finished treasures could compare with.

On this street, whether it was artifact forging, pill refining, or talismanship, everything could be customized according to the customer's requirements.

Every Shop had at least one master-level figure in a given Immortal Art, while some had several.

Of course.

The price of customized treasures was likewise beyond anything ordinary shops could match, and the profits involved were even more substantial.

Cheng Buzheng had once considered opening an artifact refinery here as well.

But the rental prices for shops here were exceedingly expensive.

At the time, Cheng Buzheng had been desperately short of Spirit Stones and simply could not afford such a price. Even Mortal Cultivators with considerable wealth would feel their hearts bleed if they wished to rent any Shop on this street.

Moreover, the shops here were in extremely high demand—prime golden locations.

Once a vacancy appeared, it would be rented out before long.

That was also why the shops on this street were so thriving.

Some Mortal Cultivators even bribed the insiders responsible for Shop rentals, so that whenever a lease expired, the Shop would be quietly intercepted for them.

Likewise.

Some well-connected, quick-witted cultivators relied on their backers to secretly rent vast numbers of shops, becoming sublandlords.

They made a fortune, their bowls and basins filled to the brim!

As for this.

The Immortal Alliance simply turned a blind eye. So long
