Chapter 1714: Remarkable Profits
n I entered Luoyang City, there was no sign of any people. If my guess is correct, the people of Luoyang City must have perished at the hands of that demon from the very beginning.”>Though many demons...The lobby was eerily silent.
Shen Changqing sat on the main seat, saying nothing. The many cultivators below dared not speak, not even daring to breathe, they could only forcefully hold their breath.
After a long silence.
Shen Changqing said indifferently, "Tell me about the situation in Honglingfang Market these years!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As his voice faded, the terrifying pressure that had filled the hall vanished instantly. All the cultivators instinctively let out a sigh of relief, their backs unknowingly soaked through with sweat.
Although Netherworld cultivators condense their physical bodies from souls, they usually don't sweat under normal circumstances. However, when confronted with frightening situations, they will still sweat as any other human would.
Hearing this, Duan Jing didn't hesitate and truthfully reported: "Since its establishment, Honglingfang Market has existed for one hundred and thirty-six years. At the beginning, Honglingfang Market only had ten thousand cultivators. To this day, the number of active cultivators in Honglingfang Market has reached over five hundred thousand."
As the enforcers of Hongling Market, we require all entrants to submit a high-grade Nether Spirit Stone as a fee.
And then for every transaction that is completed, we also charge one percent of the transaction amount as taxes.
Over the years, we have received about 60,000 top-grade Netherworld Spirit Stones in taxes!
>
That's all I have to say on that.
Another scene unfolded as a storage ring was presented to Shen Changqing with utmost respect.
“Of the 60,000 top-grade Nether Spirit Stones, a small portion was used by us for cultivation. The remaining Nether Spirit Stones are all here, totaling 50,000 top-grade Nether Spirit Stones. Please take a look, Ancestor!”
Shen Changqing expressionlessly took the storage ring, but with a mere sweep of his divine sense, everything within the storage ring was exposed to his perception.
Only to see 50,000 fist-sized Netherworld Spirit Stones neatly arranged there, the terrifying Netherworld Spiritual Energy emanating from them made even Shen Changqing feel his soul seemed to be experiencing a surge of joy.
This is the power of the Nether Spirit Stone.
Unlike ordinary spirit stones found in the heavens, Netherworld Spirit Stones can temper a cultivator's soul. They play a significant role in soul cultivation.
This is also why Nether Spirit Stones are favored by Nether cultivators.
At the end of the day.
A Netherworld cultivator's foundation is their soul.
The Netherworld Spirit Stones, capable of refining the soul and spirit, are of immense use to them.
That's why.
The Nether Soulstone is extremely rare.
According to Shen Changqing's understanding, inferior Nether Spirit Stones are roughly equivalent to a hundred ordinary divine crystals from the Zhutian. Middle-grade Nether Spirit Stones are worth ten thousand divine crystals, and superior Nether Spirit Stones are equivalent to one million divine crystals.
As for the top-grade Nether Soul Stones, they are equivalent to one hundred million ordinary Divine Crystals.
50,000 top-grade Nether Spirit Stones.
That is equivalent to fifty trillion divine crystals.
Even with Shen Changqing's composure, seeing so many Yinling Stones caused a slight tremor in his heart.
50 trillion divine crystals!
If placed on a weaker divine race, it would be equivalent to the entirety of that divine race's heritage.
You know.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Back then, when the Heavenly Sect was destroyed by the Fang Shen Clan, they only managed to divide up over a billion billion divine crystals.
Although those Divine Clans weren't monopolized by Heaven Sect alone, but were jointly divided by various forces, even so, among the top several Divine Clans, Heaven Sect only obtained over a billion billion divine crystals.
If you were in the heavens, one trillion gods crystals would naturally be an astronomical figure.
Even many fallen top-tier gods might not be able to come up with a hundred billion divine crystals.
But now.
A Red Ridge Market.
In just over a hundred years, they amassed 50 trillion divine crystals.
It should be sixty quadrillion divine crystals.
After all, the divine crystals consumed by Duan Jing and others during their cultivation should also be taken into account.
More than a hundred years, 60 billion divine crystals.
More than ten thousand years is equivalent to over six billion billion divine crystals.
That is to say.
In just a few thousand years, the earnings of Honglingfang City could rival those of a top-tier divine race.
Visible.
Just how astonishing are the profits brought in by Honglingfang Market.
in an instant.
The importance of Honglingfang Market had greatly increased in Shen Changqing's mind.
"Not bad!"
Although Shen Changqing was very interested in the 50,000 top-grade Yin-Yang Spirit Stones in his heart, he still didn't show anything on the surface. He just said something blandly.
>
But just that one sentence, let Duan Jing's heart hanging in the air finally settle down.
He understood that this meant he could survive.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
These 50,000 high-grade Nether Spirit Stones, Duan Jing has always been afraid to use them. He did this to prevent Shen Changqing from appearing one day and holding him accountable for his past actions. He could use these spirit stones to buy his life.
As a solitary cultivator, Duan Jing was able to live until now and step by step reached the peak of the Divine Master tenth level, about to be able to prove Dao as a Divine Monarch. Naturally, he understood how to survive.
Even if you take a gamble, it's important to have a backup plan.
Fifty thousand top-grade Yin Spirit Stones, this was the escape route Duànjǐng had carved out for himself.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
However.
Nothing is absolute.
If Shen Changqing insisted on killing him, Duan Jing wouldn't stand a chance of survival.
But now it seems he gambled right.
This Hongling Patriarch was very pleased with the 50,000 top-grade Nether Spirit Stones. As long as the other party was satisfied, he wouldn't have to die.
"Now in the Hongling Market, how many cultivators are under your command"
"Reporting to the Ancestor, the Honglingfang City Law Enforcement Team has a total of one hundred and twenty cultivators. Among them, there are sixty Divine Kings and sixty Divine Lords."
And among the sixty divine masters, there were roughly forty at the initial stage of the Divine Master Realm, fifteen at the middle stage, and five at the later stage!
Without any concealment, Duànjǐng described the current situation of Hónglǐngfang City in detail.
One hundred and twenty monks.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Sixty God Kings, sixty God Lords, such a force placed in the heavens would be stronger than many divine races.
It's just an enforcement team formed by freelance cultivators in the underworld.
However.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
Shen Changqing had long been accustomed to the difference between the heavens and the underworld. After all, the former had gone through the ancient catastrophe and was then suppressed by the rules, so its strength naturally couldn't be compared to the underworld.
Of the one hundred and twenty cultivators, the strongest was only at the late stage of the Divine Lord realm.

The so-called "Divine Master's Posterior Rank" naturally equates to the top deities in the heavens.
Because the gods of old were weak and did not manifest, and the strongest among the Divine Masters were those who had reached the tenth level, anyone who achieved the seventh level of the Divine Master could be considered top-tier.

Moreover.
The treatment is also much better.
A 20% return on investment calculated based on a top-grade Netherworld Spirit Stone worth 60,000 pieces would amount to 12,000 Netherworld Spirit Stones. In this way, the treatment has been subtly improved.
> More importantly,
Shen Changqing's appearance and appointment completely put Duankeng's heart at ease. He no longer had to worry about things being exposed and causing him harm.
At the same time.
You can also get a divine lord as your backing.
Shen Changqing's display of strength just now was by no means comparable to that of an ordinary god. With such a powerful being as his backer, his personal safety factor had been significantly increased.
In the past, many times, taking on tasks was done cautiously, as if walking on thin ice.
Nowadays, there's not even a shred of worry.
At this moment, the eyes of the other cultivators looking at Duan Jing were also filled with envy.

They thought Duan Jing was doomed this time, and they might even be implicated. Unexpectedly, the other party underwent a transformation and actually became the second-in-command of Honglingfang City.
