I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1318: Chapter 726: The Nineteen Counties of the Eastern Wilderness Chapter 1318: Chapter 726: The Nineteen Counties of the Eastern Wilderness “`

Although Star Heaven Dao Sect is the overlord of East Yu, within the Eastern Region, it is a superpower second only to the Three Great Sacred Lands.

Yet faced with the Flower Country royal family’s surrender and opening of their city gates, they were utterly helpless.

After all, the cultivation of ten thousand acres of Coiling Dragon Spiritual Rice in the Eastern Wilderness was made possible by the manpower of Back to Sky Valley.

Now, Yan Shaoyin was singularly focused on refining the Infant-Feeding Elixir, having even relinquished his own homeland of Summer Country. For him to confront the much more influential Five Elements Sect for the sake of the worldly Flower Country was sheer fantasy.

Without Back to Sky Valley stepping in, Star Heaven Dao Sect simply couldn’t control the entirety of Flower Country.

Perhaps they could rely on their formidable strength to coerce Flower Country not to surrender, but that would mean becoming entangled in mundane affairs, and just the thought of the complicated governance, the survival of tens of thousands of people in each city, made Lou Xuelong shake his head.

Cultivators, once they transcend the mundane, generally would not let the trifles of the mortal world erode their tranquility.

They could manage temporarily, but if it stretched into tens or hundreds of years, it was likely that not a single cultivator from Star Heaven Dao Sect would be willing.

So facing the trend of a unified Eastern Wilderness, Lou Xuelong thought long and hard but could only heave a sigh and abandon the idea of forcibly intervening.

Still, even so, he wanted to extract as many benefits as possible from the Five Elements Sect.

Jiang Zongheng was not qualified, so Lou Xuelong headed straight to Northern Abyss City.

Although negotiations about the Heterodox Golden Core did not go through, this did not affect Chen Mobai’s relationship with the Starry Sky Commerce Guild, and besides, if the Eastern Wilderness was to develop in the future, it would certainly need to build good relations with these powerful forces that had connections across the Six Domains.

After Lou Xuelong’s arrival, Chen Mobai took him straight to the Sky Meal Building for a fine meal and drinks.

“Sect Master Chen, there’s something you may not know. Unifying the Eastern Wilderness is treading on a taboo of the Holy Lands,” Lou Xuelong said with a worried face after they clinked cups, uttering a statement that took Chen Mobai by surprise.

“Why is that?”

Lou Xuelong sighed and did not play coy, revealing the reason directly.

“After the unification of the Eastern Wilderness, a mundane dynasty even larger than the Ancient Flower Kingdom will emerge. If it lasts for over a thousand years, it will give rise to an unprecedented, enormous Dragon Pulse spanning the whole Eastern Wilderness.”

“Such a vast Dragon Pulse can easily engender spirituality, the highest quality resource for cultivation. The Temporal Dragon-Sovereign Scripture of the Eastern Emperor Court from days of old was cultivated by relying on the Dragon Vein Spirit. It is precisely because of this that successive Human Emperors were able to control dragons and govern the heavens, suppressing the Four Poles and the Eight Desolates.”

“But when the Human Emperor ruled over East Continent, the Holy Lands didn’t have an easy time. Hence, following the collapse of the Eastern Emperor Court, even though there was no explicit agreement, the Holy Lands tacitly worked to prevent the emergence of a second Eastern Emperor Court.”

“Thus, once a Dragon Pulse with spiritual nature appears on the Eastern Wilderness, the Celestial Infernal Spinning Instrument of Dao Morale Sect will react, and its celestial enforcers will immediately come to slay the dragon.”

After Lou Xuelong finished speaking, although Chen Mobai’s heart was heavy, his expression relaxed.

“A thousand years from now, who knows if I’ll even be around. There’s no need to worry about something so distant.”

Seeing he hadn’t manage to scare Chen Mobai, Lou Xuelong secretly sighed and after another clink of cups, brought up the main purpose of his trip to Northern Abyss City.

Lou Xuelong: “Sect Master Chen, to be frank, my visit today is primarily to discuss a significant transaction with your sect.”

Chen Mobai: “Please, speak.”

Lou Xuelong: “If the Dragon Pulse grows and attracts the attention of the Holy Lands, my suggestion is for your sect to sell the Dragon Pulse to us at Star Heaven Dao Sect in advance. Our sect has a special secret technique that can dissipate the Qi of the Dragon Pulse to nurture Spirit Fields. The ten thousand acres of Coiling Dragon Spiritual Rice from the Ancient Flower Kingdom came about in this way. By continuously diminishing the Dragon Pulse, Dao Morale Sect’s Celestial Infernal Spinning Instrument will never react, thereby avoiding punishment from Dao Morale Sect’s celestial enforcers for your sect.”

These words sounded as if Lou Xuelong was truly considering Chen Mobai’s interests, but Chen Mobai understood the hidden implications in his words.

This was colonization.

Previously Starry Sky Commerce Guild’s targets for colonization were territories like Back to Sky Valley; now, it seemed they intended to switch to the Five Elements Sect.

Chen Mobai couldn’t help but admire Lou Xuelong’s business acumen. The Eastern Wilderness had only just been unified, and already he had thought of how best to benefit their Commerce Association.

Raising the wine glass that Gu Yan had just refilled, Chen Mobai clinked glasses with Lou Xuelong once again and began inquiring what price the Starry Sky Commerce Guild would offer to reserve that Dragon Pulse in advance.

Lou Xuelong: “We can represent both parties and first sign a letter of intent. Rock Country itself already has a 300-year history; it should have another 300 years or so, by which time its latent Dragon Vein will have spread throughout the entire Eastern Wilderness as the dynasty’s rule extends. Then, we can start cultivating Spirit Fields atop the Dragon Pulse. I will arrange for the Earth Masters and Spirit Plant Masters from the Commerce Association to come. Once the Spirit Fields are established, we will then pay the Spirit Stone costs for purchasing the Spirit Fields.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s face showed some dissatisfaction. This was pure exploitation. He couldn’t help but ask, “Can the funds be advanced?”

Lou Xuelong hesitated, considering the strength of the Five Elements Sect, but decided to bleed a little: “Sect Master Chen’s stature must be respected. According to our Commerce Association’s rates, for each mu of Rank-3 Spirit Fields, we will pay a price of ten thousand Spirit Stones. I can make an advanced payment for one thousand mu.”
