Chapter 524: Got tricked?!
A guest elder of the Chamber of Commerce?
Yao Yan's eyes flashed slightly. Although he had only entered the Great Thousand World for a few days, the body of faith of Ming Zun had been in the Great Thousand World for more than ten years. During this period, it had infiltrated all forces, large and small, in the Juling Continent, and at the same time extended its tentacles to the Great Thousand World, and the Shang Continent was naturally no exception.
Although it is not one of the ten supercontinents, it has a special location. It is located in the center of the universe. The teleportation formation connects the ten supercontinents and large and small continents. The daily throughput of supreme spiritual liquid is a terrifying number, and the business is extremely developed. No super power can leave it!
As a result, the Shang Continent is in an absolutely neutral state. No one has the ability to occupy it and become the master of the continent, unless someone can unify the entire world!
"Which business alliance is Brother Duan talking about?" Yao Yan asked.
"The Star Business Alliance." Duan Yan said, "It is a business alliance formed by many super powers. After all, it is difficult for a single power to fight against those old powers in the Business Continent. Only by cooperating can we achieve a win-win situation!"
Yao Yan was not the first person he looked for, nor the last.
Where there are people, there will be disputes. Even the neutral Shang Continent is no exception. Compared with those old forces, most of the new forces are difficult to compete with, let alone fair trade. Only when everyone sticks together can they gather enough strength to make the other party fearful. In this way, everyone can maintain their own "money-making tool" without worrying about others snatching it away.
Yao Yan pondered for a moment, thinking about the name of the Star Merchant Alliance. According to the information collected from the underworld, the status of the Star Merchant Alliance in the Shang Continent is not low. Behind it stand more than a dozen forces with the Immortal Grade Heavenly Supreme, and there are even more forces with the Spirit Grade Heavenly Supreme. As for those below... these small forces are not qualified to leave the continent and extend their tentacles to other continents.
If one wants to extend his influence, his own strength must at least reach the level of Heavenly Supreme and unify the entire continent before there is a possibility of stepping out of the native continent.
"Is this what the Star Merchant Alliance meant?" Yao Yan raised the jade token in his hand, looked at Duan Yan, and asked. From the other party's tone, it seemed that the supreme spiritual liquid that could be withdrawn at will was more like a gift, a gesture of goodwill.
This amount of money is almost comparable to that of the Daqian Palace, and only this kind of business alliance can come up with it. If it were a single force, even an old-established force with the Supreme Heavenly Spirit Liquid, it would not be able to produce such a huge amount of Supreme Spirit Liquid.
"This is the standard for the Chamber of Commerce to recruit members. However, we only recruit independent cultivators and not direct descendants of large families. The spiritual level is 10 billion, the immortal level is 10 billion, the holy level is 100 billion... Although the strength of the Emperor of Heaven is not enough, his talent has reached the highest standard!" Duan Yan said calmly.
The standards of the Star Merchant Alliance do not apply to Yao Yan. Although Yao Yan's current strength is only at the level of the Immortal Grade Heavenly Supreme, he has just ascended from the lower plane and has been recognized by the Daqian Palace. He has been listed as the seed of the Holy Grade Heavenly Supreme, and in order to protect him, even the token of the Demon King was given in advance.
Since Daqian Palace has already acted like this, how could he be petty? Even if the matter is brought to the Chamber of Commerce for discussion, no one will raise any objections.
Anyone who can cultivate to this level is not a fool.
Judging from the strength shown by Yao Yan, even if he cannot break through to the level of Saint-grade Heavenly Supreme in the future, his strength is enough to be invincible among Immortal-grade Heavenly Supreme. Using hundreds of billions of Supreme Spirit Liquids to win over the other party will be a hundred benefits and no harm to the Star Merchant Alliance.
"After becoming a member, what does this emperor need to do?" Yao Yan pondered for a moment and asked softly.
"You don't need to do anything. The existence of the Chamber of Commerce is a platform for cooperation. We can stick together to prevent being targeted by those old forces, deliberately lowering prices, etc. It also makes it convenient for everyone to cooperate privately." Duan Yan seemed to know Yao Yan's worries, chuckled, and said slowly.
"If so, I can join... It just so happens that I plan to send some people to the Shang Continent to sell elixirs in a while. I wonder if Brother Duan can lead the way?!" Upon hearing this, Yao Yan stopped thinking, put away the jade token, and smiled.
"Pills? Of course you can. Pills have always been the hard currency of the world. If the efficacy is good, it can be directly digested within the Chamber of Commerce." Jueyan agreed directly, and even had a plan in his mind. No matter what the pill that Yaoyan gave him was like, he had to eat it to give the other party face.
After all, Yao Yan came from the lower plane, and it is hard to say how effective the pills he made are. The Great Thousand World already has a mature alchemy system, and has even spawned two major alchemy holy places. Compared with them, the lower plane is ultimately a bit of a mess.
Yao Yan didn't say much. Currently, Danta's alchemy system is still at the level of the lower plane. However, with the alchemy talent of Yao Lao and others, they only need to adapt to the spiritual power system of the universe and will surely be able to integrate into it quickly. By then, their alchemy skills will surprise the entire universe!
He had no doubt about this.
After the situation in Heaven is stabilized, he will lead some people to the holy land of alchemy in the Great Thousand World to learn a thing or two and see what the level of alchemy is in the Great Thousand World. Yao Yan is also very curious about this.
In addition, there is also a formation...
Yao Yan asked Xiao Yixian to take the other party to meet Ya Fei and others. He was not good at business matters and had handed them all over to Ya Fei. Naturally, he would not interfere. For the helmsman of a force, strong strength is the foundation. As for the others, they are all unorthodox.
After all, you can "ask" or even "borrow" elixirs, supreme spiritual liquids, etc. from others. As long as you are stronger than the other party, the other party will naturally give you this face!
After finishing the business, Yao Yan's gaze fell on the remaining three people. Ancestor Bingling and others had different expressions. The only one who was relatively calm was Venerable Long, who looked like he didn't care, like a dead pig.
"Venerable Long, since you have chosen to serve the Heavenly Court for a thousand years, I hope you will keep your word. During this period, I will not restrict your freedom. But when you are needed to contribute, I hope you will not be lazy, otherwise... it will only make both parties unhappy." Yao Yan warned softly.
The Dragon Lord nodded and said, "Don't worry, I am not like you humans. We dragons will never do anything as sneaky and cunning as you do. What's more, today's incident will soon be spread out. Even for the sake of the dragon race's reputation, I will continue to do it on your side!"
There was one thing he didn't say, which was that he was too ashamed to go back to the Dragon Clan. He had lost face this time and would definitely become the laughing stock of everyone if he went back. Just thinking about that scene made him a little collapsed. It would be better for him to hide with Yao Yan and wait until everyone gradually forgot about it before going back.
Anyway, it's only a thousand years. With his long life span, it's just a nap time.
Secondly, he also wanted to see how far Yao Yan could grow.
Yao Yan nodded, then looked at the Snow Demon Elder and said softly, "Snow Demon Elder, what are your plans? Do you want to give the Supreme Spiritual Liquid directly, or do you want to serve this Emperor for a thousand years like the Dragon Elder did?"
"Do I have any other choice?" The old Snow Demon had a sad face. He was originally at home and relaxed, but he ended up owing 500 billion Supreme Spiritual Liquids after accompanying his old friend. Who could he go to for justice? "Yes, leave this body behind. A complete body of a peak spiritual supreme is enough to be worth 500 billion Supreme Spiritual Liquids." Yao Yan gave a third way.
Upon hearing this, Venerable Long looked at Emperor Yao Yan in disbelief. He obviously did not expect the other party to give such a solution. The corners of his mouth twitched immediately. He suspected that if he had continued to be stubborn, his body would have been stripped off by the other party.
Although they will not die, their strength will inevitably be reduced by 90% after losing their physical bodies, and if they want to recover, they will need to spend a huge amount of time and cultivation resources, or spend a huge price and ask the alchemists for help.
"I am willing to serve the Emperor of Heaven for a thousand years." The old Snow Demon said without hesitation, because there was something wrong with the way Yao Yan looked at him. He suspected that if he continued to hesitate, the other party would not even give him a choice and would directly strip off his body. Then he would feel that life would be worse than death.
After "recruiting" two free Heavenly Supreme thugs for the Heavenly Court, Yao Yan's gaze fell on the ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan.
"Emperor of Heaven, I wonder what you meant by your previous words?" The ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan noticed Yao Yan's gaze and felt great physical and mental pressure. He clenched his fists to suppress the fear in his heart and said in a deep voice.
"This emperor met a confidante in the lower plane. She seems to be from your Ice Spirit Clan. I have sensed the imprint of her soul in the Ice Spirit Stele before." Yao Yan raised his hand and summoned the Ice Spirit Stele. An ice crystal stele filled with cold mist was suspended in Yao Yan's palm. The slightest chill was enough to move even the Supreme Heaven.
At this moment, an extremely beautiful figure appeared inside the Ice Spirit Monument. Her eyes were slightly closed, but her unparalleled beauty could not be concealed.
"?!" The ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan suddenly opened his eyes wide and stared at the figure in the Ice Spirit Monument. He was not surprised by the other party's beauty, but that there was actually this soul mark in the Ice Spirit Monument. He had previously thought that Yao Yan wanted to cheat his Ice Spirit Monument, but he did not expect that everything was true. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
Those who are qualified to leave their soul mark in the Ice Spirit Monument are all royal members of the Ice Spirit Clan. With this soul mark, they can be resurrected again even if they are completely destroyed. This is also the special bloodline of the Ice Spirit Clan. However, the power of this bloodline is not manifested in the body, but in the soul. At the same time, it also needs to cooperate with the Ice Spirit Monument, which is why the ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan attaches so much importance to the Ice Spirit Monument.
As long as the Ice Spirit Monument is there, there is no need to fear even if the Ice Spirit Clan faces a disaster of genocide.
Why don't I remember anyone in my clan drifting to the lower planes? Could it be those royal families who failed in the fight for the position of clan leader... The ancestor of the Ice Spirit clan began to think about it. As the only Heavenly Supreme in the Ice Spirit clan, he had an aloof status and never cared much about the affairs below. He also never paid attention to the struggles and changes of clan leaders in the clan.
After all, no matter who becomes the clan leader, he is still the ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan, and no one dares to challenge his position unless someone can break through to the Heavenly Supreme. However, this is also something he is happy to see.
Appropriate competition is more conducive to the development of the ethnic group.
"I wonder if the Emperor of Heaven can let this old man meet her?" The tone of the Ice Spirit Clan's ancestor changed, from being a little more unfamiliar to becoming eager. Because of this relationship, his gaze towards Yao Yan now became burning.
After all, he was an outsider before, and was bullied by outsiders, so he naturally felt aggrieved. But now, Yao Yan is very likely to be the future son-in-law of the Bingling tribe... They are all family members, so the feeling is very different. Their Bingling tribe is going to take off! !
Don’t think that the Heavenly Supreme is very powerful. The universe is vast and boundless, and there are thousands of Heavenly Supremes, with different statuses.
If it weren't for the rules set by the Daqian Palace, the situation of the Bingling Clan would not be very good. They have always needed him, the ancestor, to take charge. No one in the younger generation could step into the position of Heavenly Supreme. Who could understand the feeling of having no successor?
Now that they are with Yao Yan, the new Heavenly Emperor, the future of the Ice Spirit Clan can be imagined!
"I have to ask her about this matter. Please wait a moment." Yao Yan said softly, and his figure disappeared from the spot, leaving only the ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan secretly happy. The old guy was also rubbing his hands, with an expression that he had made a fortune.
But this expression soon stopped because his old friend was staring at him coldly.
"Haha, you are in a good mood!" Lord Dragon sneered, his voice was emotionless, like an emotionless robot. If this was not the right place to do it, he would have wanted to beat this old thing to a pulp!
Damn, I've seen people cheating, but I've never seen anyone cheating as much as this. I thought we were all good friends and united against the outside world, but in the end, we turned out to be a family.
The old Snow Demon smiled with a fake smile, and said in a sarcastic tone: "Old man, congratulations to you, you have found your long-lost tribe members, and you have also hooked up with the Emperor of Heaven!!"
"Hehe, I didn't know about it beforehand, please forgive me, please forgive me!" The ancestor of the Ice Spirit Clan laughed awkwardly, and couldn't laugh for a while. He felt that his friendship with his two old friends had completely collapsed, and the friendship boat capsized.
"Don't be happy too soon. If the other party has a grudge against your Ice Spirit Clan, then it will be a lot of fun!" Venerable Dragon said with a sinister laugh.
"That's right... If I don't remember, the patriarch of the Ice Spirit Clan has always been selected through competition among the royal families within the clan, and the new patriarch will never tolerate the original royal family to continue to stay in the clan. This royal family member who has drifted to the lower plane is very likely to have a grudge against the current royal family of your Ice Spirit Clan. It would be interesting if he seeks revenge on you!!" The old Snow Demon echoed.
Upon hearing this, Ancestor Bing Ling fell silent, but a cold murderous intent appeared in his eyes. This matter was not a big deal to him. The worst that could happen was that he would deal with the current clan leader and those people. Even though they had served him well, for the future of the Bing Ling clan, he still had to be ruthless!
Among those who can become the Supreme Lord of Heaven, how many of them are good people!
