The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 1869: Chapter 1814–Chapter 1815: Worry and Rush Purchase_2

“The Dragon’s Scent Realm is in chaos now, the native people have been incited, and vast areas of Dragon Saliva Flowers have been destroyed. It’s estimated that the output of Dragon Saliva Flowers in the next decade will significantly decrease,” Yu Yiyao said with a frown.

The matter within the Dragon’s Scent Realm is being handled by the experts from the Purple Mansion Sect and the Heavenly Court, with some top immortal sects interfering as well; it’s not the Heterodox Alliance’s place to meddle.

The situation is unclear now; the Dragon’s Scent Realm is chaotic, and no one knows to what extent the people behind this want to go. Not only do they have no way to interfere, even if they had the chance, it’s best to keep a distance.

However, the Dragon Saliva Flower is crucial for refining the Taoist Foundation Pill. Short-term production issues are fine, but the fear is that this issue drags on too long, wasting too much time.

“We can’t meddle in the Dragon’s Scent Realm for now, but we must guard against the issue with the Dragon Saliva Flower. Immediately order someone to take advantage of this to acquire another batch of Dragon Saliva Flowers, and also halt our external sales of the Taoist Foundation Pill,” Zhao Baiyang promptly decided.

No matter how the upcoming situation unfolds, the reduction in Dragon Saliva Flower production seems unavoidable.

Dragon Saliva Flowers mature every ten years. Though it seems not short, and it shouldn’t be an issue in the short term, this concerns the conflict of interests among all parties and will not be easily resolved quickly.

And since those behind have chosen to target the Dragon’s Scent Realm, they must have their own plans and will not easily let this opportunity slip, especially after hearing that natives are being provoked to burn and eradicate the Dragon Saliva Flowers. Zhao Baiyang realized immediately that this would not be a simple quick-fix issue.

Now since their own group cannot handle the Dragon’s Scent Realm affairs, they should naturally mind their own business and not meddle in others’ affairs.

Now that the Dragon’s Scent Realm is in trouble and Dragon Saliva Flowers are being burned and destroyed, this will surely lead to a rise in the price of Dragon Saliva Flowers or even direct scarcity. To guarantee the Heterodox Alliance’s supply of elixirs, some reserves need to be prepared in advance.

External sales of the Taoist Foundation Pill also need to be halted for now, even knowing that the price of the Taoist Foundation Pill will rise, this needs to be paused temporarily.

“Understood, disciple. Arrangements for these tasks have already been made.” Yu Yiyao nodded and said, “However, the news has already spread, and the price of Dragon Saliva Flowers will surely rise. Some forces will certainly choose to act like we did.”

As the Wielder of the Heterodox Alliance’s daily affairs, Yu Yiyao naturally understood the current situation. After confirming the authenticity of the news, decisions were made immediately to start massively collecting Dragon Saliva Flowers.

However, there needs to be a limit, after all, since the output of Dragon Saliva Flowers from the Dragon’s Scent Realm is decreasing, all parties are rushing to purchase, undoubtedly causing prices to rise. If the price gets too high, whether to continue purchasing remains a question.

Note that for the Heterodox Alliance, the strategic resources they need are not just Dragon Saliva Flowers alone, but with limited financial resources, they can’t invest everything into Dragon Saliva Flowers.

Ultimately, how much Dragon Saliva Flower should be acquired is a decision that needs to be made by our own master.

Zhao Baiyang and the others exchanged glances and, after consulting with each other, said, “As long as the price doesn’t exceed twice the current rate, purchases can continue—at least enough to cover a century’s consumption.”

“Do you think this matter will last at least a century?” Tie Qianshan asked, frowning at Zhao Baiyang’s words, his expression grave, “Can’t those with Imperial Honors and Taoist Monarchs bring this matter to rest?”

For what is happening in the Dragon’s Scent Realm, Tie Qianshan also found it troublesome but did not expect Zhao Baiyang to be so pessimistic, thinking the issue could not be resolved for a hundred years.

The Dragon’s Scent Realm seems like only a C-level World, but due to the unique existence of Dragon Saliva Flowers, it’s a strategic asset of the Divine Land World. Even if problems arise, the Heavenly Court and these top immortal sects shouldn’t let this matter drag on too long without resolution.

“What I fear is the intervention of the Heavenly Court’s Imperial Honors and those Taoist Monarchs,” Zhao Baiyang sighed lightly, his tone filled with melancholy.

If it were just ordinary True Immortals meddling, it would be fine, but he feared the people behind it were not only some True Immortals but the intentions of certain Taoist Monarchs.

Once anything involves battles of this level, it absolutely won’t be resolved easily.

The original dispute over the Dragon’s Scent Realm’s ownership took various forces nearly a century to settle under regulated conditions.

Now that someone deliberately stirs up trouble in the Dragon’s Scent Realm, it certainly won’t be easy for things to settle down.

Should the Heavenly Court’s Imperial Honors and the top immortal sects’ Taoist Monarchs reach an agreement and compromise quickly, then the matter can be resolved swiftly.

What is feared is that the Heavenly Court’s Imperial Honors might use this opportunity to create disturbances, turning the Dragon’s Scent Realm into their battleground, complicating matters in the Dragon’s Scent Realm.

In Zhao Baiyang’s view, the latter possibility is high, as the feud between the Jade Emperor and Great Emperor Ziwei with veteran Taoist Monarchs is well known, would they let such a golden opportunity pass?

Certainly not!

Zhao Baiyang even suspects that this matter might have been instigated by those with Imperial Honors or any of those veteran Taoist Monarchs could be behind it.

He must be wary in facing potential enemies and avoid being too optimistic, thinking the matter can be resolved swiftly.

As for preparing a century’s worth of reserves, this decision was made after assessing the financial capacity of the entire Heterodox Alliance. If resources weren’t limited, he would certainly want to gather more Dragon Saliva Flowers.

After all, the Heterodox Alliance consumes not only the Taoist Foundation Pill but other elixirs as well. This means that even if the Taoist Foundation Pill is crucial, it’s impossible to devote all resources to it.

Following Zhao Baiyang’s decision, the entire Heterodox Alliance launched a massive purchase effort of Dragon Saliva Flowers and Taoist Foundation Pills from the Heavenly Court and other forces.

But cleverness is not Zhao Baiyang’s alone, as news of trouble in the Dragon’s Scent Realm spread, everyone soon got the message. As long as they have a hint of forethought, anyone who isn’t foolish would start preparing to purchase Dragon Saliva Flowers en masse.

Some even saw it as an opportunity to profit, sharing pessimism about the Dragon’s Scent Realm’s affairs and doubting it could be resolved easily.

Especially after hearing that natives and others are burning and destroying Dragon Saliva Flowers, they started fanning the flames, eager to take this opportunity to reduce the production of Dragon Saliva Flowers and inflate their prices.

In merely a month’s time, the news of trouble in the Dragon’s Scent Realm spread across All Heavens and Myriad Realms. Except for a portion of Independent Practitioners, various forces started buying Dragon Saliva Flowers in bulk, causing prices to soar and double instantly.

This also led to the Heterodox Alliance’s plans failing to meet expectations; they aimed to gather enough Dragon Saliva Flowers for a century’s consumption but ended up with a stock barely enough for about eighty years.

This was expected, as the saying goes, goods are valued for their rarity, buy high, not low.

Even those who initially paid little attention to Dragon Saliva Flowers joined in once every force’s focus fell on them, even the most delayed Cultivator or force joined in.

Seeing the frantic buying situation, some forces that originally planned to sell Dragon Saliva Flowers on a large scale stopped their supply.

The price of Dragon Saliva Flowers fluctuated wildly daily, with demand outstripping supply.

“This is a disaster, we’ve made trouble now.”

“Our Purple Mansion Sect just wanted to do honest business, how did we become the target of everyone?”

“Those damned things, now they have their eyes fixed on us.”
