Chapter 479: Chapter 204 Ten Thousand Sceneries_2
Therefore, the overall loss was severe.
He could only sell this station and the interests of Liu Feng Town.
Thus, Small Knife, also known as Li Wushuang, as the branch president, after some negotiations, invested a large amount of resources to establish a branch office here.
Besides various preferential conditions, he also obtained a large piece of land, all in very good locations in Liu Feng Town, and secured a ten percent share of the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Gathering Array.
Additionally, he obtained some intelligence from the town lord and the family head.
The Four Celestial Great World is too powerful, and Small Knife often reminded himself to be careful and never to get carried away.
Relying on personal space provides many advantages, as long as it remains undiscovered.
Once discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, Small Knife did not rush things.
After securing certain benefits in Liu Feng Town, he also purchased several villages around it to supplement the guild’s resources.
After all, if a large number of resources suddenly appeared for sale without any source, over time, a careful investigation would inevitably uncover something.
Thanks to the negotiations in Liu Feng Town, the purchased villages were all close by, requiring some connections to buy.
Gradually, the Little Knife Commerce Association also integrated into the Four Celestial Great World, becoming a small guild without anything special, merely earning a little extra income.
These side gigs don’t really make money; the real profit comes from private deals involving cultivation techniques, perennial Spirit Fruit Trees, and the like, yielding an almost 99.999 percent profit margin.
Of course, cultivation techniques cannot be sold cheaply; otherwise, issues would easily be discovered.
Moreover, the current contacts have limited demand.
The Spirit Fruit Trees are the same.
However, now Small Knife has discovered a new profit point.
That is the Spirit Talisman.
Most Spirit Talismans originate from Talisman Heaven, suggesting there are many.
But Talisman Heaven is the most mysterious, or rather the most secluded, making it hard to find their cultivators outside.
Talisman Heaven cultivators reportedly establish foundations with talismans, making them their lifebound treasures, allowing them to instantaneously cast talismans.
They can also simultaneously deploy several spirit talismans, exhibiting extreme explosiveness.
However, due to their reclusive nature, few talismans circulate outside.
Furthermore, talisman-related cultivation techniques are extremely expensive.
Therefore, in the external world, ordinary cultivators can mostly produce talismans up to the late stage of Foundation Establishment; Golden Core Level ones are extremely rare and incredibly expensive.
Thus, it’s not simply a matter of having money to buy Golden Core Level talismans.
Even though Small Knife felt it shouldn’t be this simple, in reality, most Golden Core Talismans sold outside are either at auctions or through premium purchases.
Small Knife participated a few times, gathering some as samples for analysis in his personal space.
Yet, mass production is currently impossible, with only a small output possible within personal space.
But he believes large-scale production will not take long.
To this end, within his personal space lies a floating continent, under Small Knife’s control, with extremely high Spiritual Qi concentration.
The gathered indigenous Spirit Root Practitioners have gained many resources and are cultivating diligently; now, they have reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, with the strongest one nearing perfection.
Once a Golden Core cultivator is born, manufacturing Golden Core talismans following a unique factory model becomes much easier.
Unlike now, when using Dragon Skin Talisman Paper, which contains sufficient energy, late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators can manage to produce early-stage Golden Core talismans with reduced consumption, though with low success rates.
More importantly, such special material talismans cannot be sold in the Four Heavens World by Small Knife.
On the Flying Ship, those two Foundation Establishment family heads have already submitted.
However, they have also relinquished their positions as family heads and given up their authority, obviously fearing their families would be annexed.
But Small Knife naturally didn’t have this idea.
With the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, Small Knife directly purchased a Flying Ship, a standard edition, capable of both attacking and defending, though lacking the extreme defensive strength of pure defense models.
He put the Flying Ship in his personal space, enhanced by his consciousness.
Now, the personal space has expanded immensely, and under his will’s influence, it’s as easy as the Heavenly Dao, effortlessly recording some construction details of the Flying Ship.
Imitating models wasn’t an issue.
The ship was also handed over to the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, who, along with the goods and a few hired Qi Cultivators, began doing business travels.
After engaging in this business, he realized that the profits from business travels are quite decent, although the profit on goods is low, there are kickbacks.
The biggest concern is the Demon Dao and some bandits.
This is the risk.
The underlying crises have never ceased beneath the surface peace.
Over time, Small Knife also discovered that information here is quite closed off, except for those with talent who can break out of this circle.
Other families seem to be raised in captivity, developing slowly and steadily.
Demon Cultivators and some tribulation cultivators are their only calamities.
Owning a personal space, becoming the Master of the World, Small Knife can perceive quite a bit.
Every cultivator is like a seed.
Rooting, sprouting, growing, and ultimately dying, equates to fruition.
Before death, they all take and absorb the world’s power, and after death, they return, equating to fruition as well.
This is obviously beneficial to the world’s growth.
The Four Heavens Great World likely grows through such means.
But being able to open new territories within the world is something he still doesn’t understand.
Could it be like his personal space? As long as there are Spirit Stones, expansion is possible?
But the expansion area remains broad while Spiritual Qi content is extremely limited, without the aid of large Spirit Gathering Arrays, cultivation would be extremely difficult.
However, this closed information situation suits Small Knife to fish in troubled waters and develop quietly, earning benefits.
From entering the Four Celestial Great World until now, the number of Spirit Stones he has harvested is extremely staggering, allowing for major expansion of his personal space.
But it’s still far from enough; the personal space seems like a bottomless pit, yielding whatever is invested, with no limits.
The first step is to enlarge the personal space beyond the size of the Water Blue Star Mini World.
Small Knife felt that as personal space expanded, the more his consciousness integrated into it, the more he could achieve.
Coupled with the special power that ignores external rules, this personal space is infinitely potent.
But the consumption here is immense; it must proceed slowly, without being greedy.
Therefore, he did not invest all his resources here, leaving part with the Five Elements Sword Control Sect.
Small Knife, on this side, still meditates in the Spirit Pool, constructing his Purple Mansion.
The Spirit Liquid in the Spirit Pool had long been insufficient, so the Spirit Gathering Array absorbs the surrounding Spiritual Qi, hardly making a dent; naturally, many Spirit Stones are added to it, converted into Spirit Liquid.
With these immense consumptions, as Small Knife constructs the Purple Mansion, his Level gradually rises.
His Lifebound Treasure, the Golden Bell, is also merged into it.
This is Sword Heaven’s unique method.
However, Small Knife’s innate Lifebound Treasure, the Golden Bell, compelled him to spare no expense and construct a second lifebound treasure using the Five Elements Sword Control Sect’s unique methods.
It is also a significant investment, involving the Five Elements Flying Sword, both singular and in a set.
By leveraging the establishment of the Purple Mansion, it forms a lifebound connection with the first Lifebound Treasure, the Golden Bell.
The ambition is high.
Though the difficulty isn’t extreme, given the Five Elements Sword Control Sect’s high standing, corresponding cultivation strategies are all available.
The only concern is the consumption.
Immense consumption.
As long as there is substantial consumption, the Purple Mansion can be built perfectly.
Then, a perfect Golden Core can be born.
The Purple Mansion isn’t difficult; it’s just a transition.
The Fourth-Realm Golden Core isn’t difficult for the Five Elements Sword Control Sect; the difficulty lies in quality.
In Sword Heaven, one of the Four Heavens and the current top sect, as long as one achieves a First-Grade Golden Core, they can directly become a core disciple with a hope for immortality.
If one surpasses the First Grade and directly forges a Flawless Perfect Golden Core, they’ll certainly become a True Inheritance disciple, regardless of cultivation level or age.
This has been the most potential move in the Five Elements Sword Control Sect, among the Four Heavens’ top sects.
By then, they can enjoy the Four Heavens’ relentless nurturing.
The goal is to become immortal.
In the Five Elements Sword Control Sect’s history, ordinary outer disciples cultivated cautiously and reached the Golden Core late in life.
Records show that an unremarkable figure once directly forged a Flawless Perfect Golden Core and astonishingly became a True Inheritance disciple.
He became the most potential new generation in the Four Celestial Great World.
Unfortunately, such a miracle only appeared once, and he chose the wrong path, eventually failing to become immortal, turning to ash.
