"Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Law Fragment."
"How interesting."
"Besides being usable to enfeoff a Subordinate Ninth Rank Subordinate God, it can even reduce the divine power cost of a Divine Technique..."
Li Yue was a little surprised.
Moreover, these one hundred units of 'Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Law Fragment' were actually worth one thousand units of divine power!
Did that mean—
each unit of 'Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Law Fragment' was worth ten units of divine power?
"What a generous benefactor..."
A satisfied smile tugged at his lips.
This Evil Specter—
was actually pretty cute.
That 'Paper Effigy Shop' was probably the weakest Evil Specter, yet killing it had still earned him a thousand units of divine power. What a huge profit.
If only more Evil Specters showed up.
Wouldn't he soon have enough to gather fifteen thousand units of divine power?
Of course—
that was just wishful thinking.
Although his "Jurisdiction" covered a fairly large area, a full thousand qing of land,
it was nothing much compared with all of Cangmu Town.
And according to rumors, the only Evil Specters in Cangmu Town besides this Paper Effigy Shop were found in another Mysterious Manor.
The odds of getting that Mysterious Manor into his "Jurisdiction" by chance were simply too low.
Unless he could advance to Subordinate Eighth Rank Divine Rank and make his "Jurisdiction" expand dramatically once more. That would give him a much better chance of having the Mysterious Manor appear within his "Jurisdiction."
"These one hundred units of 'Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Law Fragment' aren't enough to enfeoff a Subordinate Ninth Rank Subordinate God."
"So what's the best way to use them..."
Li Yue pondered.
Sell them outright?
That would earn him a thousand units of divine power immediately, but he didn't think it was the best way to handle them.
After thinking it over,
a thought suddenly struck him. He immediately opened the "Regional Trading" interface and checked the price of 'Yin Soldier Artifacts.'
"It's dropped to ten units of divine power and three hundred units of Incense Wish Power..."
"The cost alone is ten units of divine power. The extra three hundred units of Incense Wish Power are just payment for the effort..."
"This price should have hit rock bottom."
"Working hard for two hours to make one 'Yin Soldier Artifact,' only to earn three hundred units of Incense Wish Power... That's just 0.3 units of divine power..."
Li Yue shook his head.
At that price, he'd also have to compete with plenty of others. He might not even sell one in a whole day.
After all, more and more people had advanced to Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Rank.
Back when he sold 'Yin Soldier Artifacts,' he earned ten units of divine power per item.
Now that had been real profit!
"Since you're all so competitive..."
"Then one more won't make a difference..."
A strange smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Fifty units of 'Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Law Fragment' could reduce the cost of one Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Technique by fifty percent.
He didn't think any further.
He took out fifty units of 'Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Law Fragment' and used them on the Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Technique 'Yin Soldier Artifact.'
This wasn't the Principal Ninth Rank Divine Technique 'Third-Order Yin Soldier Artifact.'
It was only a Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Technique.
At once—
he felt his understanding of the Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Technique 'Yin Soldier Artifact' deepen considerably. It had even improved, and he now understood how to greatly reduce the divine power needed to craft a Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifact.
Whoosh—
He stretched out his hand.
Five units of divine power surged forth, slowly sketching out the Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifact 'Soul-Binding Chain' before him.
In just half an hour,
he had finished crafting it, and a Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifact 'Soul-Binding Chain' floated before his eyes.
"Before, at Subordinate Ninth Rank Divine Rank, crafting a Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifact took two hours."
"Now, at Principal Ninth Rank Divine Rank, crafting one takes only half an hour. That's four times the efficiency."
Li Yue was satisfied.
That meant—
he could craft twenty-four Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifacts in a twelve-hour day!
"You all still need to earn a little something for your hard work..."
"But I can just price mine at ten units of divine power..."
He chuckled.
Without hesitation, he immediately listed the Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifact before him on the "Regional Trading" interface for ten units of divine power.
He refused to believe—
that there could be another Blue Star Deity listing one for ten units of divine power, just like him.
At ten units of divine power, he still made five units of profit.
But if other Blue Star Deities listed theirs at ten units of divine power, they'd be working for free. Who would do that?
If someone really did—
then he could lower his price again!
"Although I can't earn ten units of divine power from each Second-Order Yin Soldier Artifact like before,"
"my efficiency is higher now... And selling at cost means those Subordinate Ninth Rank Blue Star Deities won't have to waste time crafting them themselves. They can just buy one for ten units of divine power. What a great deal."
"Sales probably won't be low."
"I, Li Yue, work hard and diligently, all for the benefit of the gods of Blue Star..."
He smiled.
Then he continued enthusiastically crafting Second-Order 'Yin Soldier Artifacts.'
He was sure—
he'd soon make back the five hundred units of divine power he'd spent on those fifty units of 'Divine Law Fragment.'
"Holy shit!"
"Cao! Cao! Ah!"
"Which big shot is selling Yin Soldier Artifacts for ten units of divine power each?"
"An Yin Soldier Artifact takes two hours of hard work to make, and you don't earn a single cent?"
"Working for free?"
"Do you have to be this competitive?!"
Inside a Divine Domain, Zhou Minghuang had just finished crafting an Yin Soldier Artifact.
But just as he was about to list it for sale, his eyes bulged at the interface, where Yin Soldier Artifacts were being sold for a glaring ten units of divine power each. He immediately let loose a string of curses.
He'd thought that selling his for ten units of divine power and three hundred units of Incense Wish Power was already the lowest possible price.
There were still plenty of people competing with him at that price.
On average, he could only sell one every three days, earning three hundred units of Incense Wish Power.
Over ten days, he could earn one unit of divine power.
But now—
someone else wasn't making any money at all.
They were selling at cost. How was he supposed to compete?
There was no way to play this game anymore.
"Let's see how long you can keep selling."
"I refuse to believe you can work for free every day."
"If you keep selling like this long-term, I'll stop crafting Yin Soldier Artifacts altogether. When I need one, I'll just buy it from you!"
He gritted his teeth.
The next moment,
he saw that Yin Soldier Artifact had already been bought.
But he wasn't envious at all. Instead, he sneered.
He might envy others for making money, but when someone worked for free, all he could do was curse them as a fool in his heart.
However, two hours later,
he saw that the other person had listed four more Yin Soldier Artifacts, still at ten units of divine power apiece!
"You had spares?"
"They've become a Deity, so how can anyone be this stupid?"
"You don't earn a single cent. I hereby call you the greatest king of competition!"
He shook his head and couldn't be bothered with it anymore.
Wasn't this just a business where you earned one unit of divine power every ten days?
He was done with it.
Go ahead and compete all you want!
