The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2514: Promotion

Jing Yan believed that it was time to launch the Qianhe Zhenye!

Over the past century, Jing Yan had secretly refined quite a few Qianhe Zhenyes.

Although the refining materials for Qianhe Zhenye are rare and precious, with the support of the Golden Toad Commerce, they could still be continuously acquired. Moreover, with the two pillars of Hongmeng Cultivation Tower and Hongmeng Pill Tower, Hongmeng City is now very wealthy. Besides, with the prosperity of Hongmeng City, the tax revenue is quite high, along with continuous property sales. In short, the current stock reserve of Black Crystal Stones in Hongmeng City is considerable, enough to fight a war if necessary.

Of course, as the city’s defense forces of Hongmeng City strengthen, various expenditures are also rising rapidly, with the main expenses being personnel salaries and formation materials.

“Jing Yan.” Wuxia saw Jing Yan arriving, she stood up gracefully, her beautiful eyes glistening with light halo.

Wuxia had already reached the Immortal Venerable Middle Stage.

During this period, Wuxia also used several Qianhe Zhenye, and her Divine Soul Body purity improved significantly. Her innate Dao Skill talent was high to begin with, and with the aid of Qianhe Zhenye and Netherworld Crystal Stones, it was a matter of course for her to reach the Immortal Venerable Middle Stage recently.

“Wuxia, has the operation of the Hongmeng Pill Tower been smooth lately?” Jing Yan smiled at Wuxia.

“Mm, nothing much. The Hongmeng Pill Tower has been running normally; it’s been decades since anything needed my intervention.” Wuxia said.

Jing Yan and Wuxia Building Owner chatted for a while before getting down to business.

“Wuxia, the Qianhe Zhenye can now be launched to the public. However, the eligibility to purchase this pill should be strictly restricted. Even forces friendly with our Hongmeng City wanting to buy Qianhe Zhenye must be limited in quantity.” Jing Yan said to Wuxia.

“Okay!”

“Jing Yan, once the Qianhe Zhenye is launched, it might stir a storm within Kunling Heaven. The biggest impact will be on the Eight Gods Pill Sect. I’m not sure how the Eight Gods Pill Sect will respond.” Wuxia slightly furrowed her brows.

“Let the soldiers come to block it and the water to cover it! An Eight Gods Pill Sect cannot destroy our Hongmeng City.” Jing Yan laughed.

A few days later, Gao Zhenjiang from Golden Toad Commerce came again to Hongmeng City.

Over the century, Gao Zhenjiang had visited Hongmeng City many times, and not every time did he have important business to meet City Lord Jing Yan. In fact, most times, he came for the Heavenly-level Cultivation Room of the Hongmeng Cultivation Tower. Every visit to Hongmeng City, he would use the ninth level Cultivation Room for a period.

However, this time he came to Hongmeng City at the invitation of City Lord Jing Yan.

“City Lord Jing Yan, what important matter called me over this time? Can’t you say it over communication?” Gao Zhenjiang complained upon seeing Jing Yan.

He felt that Hongmeng Cultivation Tower was draining him dry.

Over the century, due to frequent use of the ninth-level Cultivation Room of Hongmeng Cultivation Tower, his wealth has significantly diminished. So, when he saw Jing Yan, he complained with discontent.

“This matter is very important; it must be discussed face-to-face to be clear.” Jing Yan smiled, not minding Gao Zhenjiang’s complaint.

Of course, Gao Zhenjiang was merely complaining verbally. Being able to use the ninth-level Cultivation Tower is a stroke of luck; others may not even have the qualification to use it.

“What exactly is it?” Seeing Jing Yan’s serious tone, Gao Zhenjiang also became serious.

“It’s about the Qianhe Zhenye Divine Pill.” Jing Yan said.

“Qianhe Zhenye?” Gao Zhenjiang was slightly taken aback.

He was very familiar with Qianhe Zhenye. It was through his hands that City Lord Jing Yan obtained the Incomplete Pill Recipe of Qianhe Zhenye at that time.

“City Lord Jing Yan, what happened with Qianhe Zhenye? This pill has long been gone, and the recipe has vanished as well. Even the incomplete recipe, probably only exists in your hands. Many excellent Immortal Pill Masters have tried to complete the recipe over countless years, but all have failed.” Gao Zhenjiang continued.

“Elder Gao, don’t be impatient. Take a look at this!” Jing Yan’s lips curved into a smile as he took out a Jade Bottle and handed it to Gao Zhenjiang.

Gao Zhenjiang received it and casually opened the Jade Bottle, seeing the entirely red Qianhe Zhenye inside, with its surface faintly showing gold threads.

“Hmm?”

“Is this…”

“How does this compare to the Qianhe Zhenye pill described in ancient classics?” Gao Zhenjiang said, staring wide-eyed.

Since Jing Yan had just mentioned Qianhe Zhenye, he could immediately think of Qianhe Zhenye. If Jing Yan hadn’t mentioned it, he might not have recalled it immediately upon directly viewing the Qianhe Zhenye.

“Because this is Qianhe Zhenye!” Jing Yan laughed.

“What?”

“City Lord Jing Yan, what are you talking about?”

“Qianhe Zhenye has long since ceased to exist. Among the superpowers, I’ve never heard of any that still possess Qianhe Zhenye.” Gao Zhenjiang instinctively didn’t believe this pill was Qianhe Zhenye.

“Elder Gao, I didn’t call you to Hongmeng City to joke with you. This pill is Qianhe Zhenye, genuinely authentic. Moreover, I refined it myself. I have already completed the Qianhe Zhenye pill formula, and for that I must thank you.” Jing Yan’s expression turned solemn.

“You…” Gao Zhenjiang’s body started to tremble slightly.

If this pill truly is Qianhe Zhenye, Gao Zhenjiang certainly understood what it represented. Though Qianhe Zhenye is merely of Divine Pill level, even considering all Immortal Pills, it is difficult to find one comparable in importance to Qianhe Zhenye. If City Lord Jing Yan could refine Qianhe Zhenye, the entire Heavenly Domain would likely be in an uproar because of it.

Although Qianhe Zhenye had disappeared long ago, it was probably never forgotten in the memories of those ancient old guys who lived for a long time. Furthermore, some ancient classics record information about Qianhe Zhenye, which suggests many cultivators may know of Qianhe Zhenye.

“Elder Gao, Hongmeng Pill Tower plans to introduce Qianhe Zhenye to the public. This time, I invited you here to request your help and that of Golden Toad Commerce in promoting it. The pill in your hand is your compensation.” Jing Yan squinted his eyes as he spoke.

“A pill as compensation? City Lord Jing Yan, you can’t be so stingy!” Gao Zhenjiang said this reflexively before considering further.

“Stingy?” Jing Yan glared and said, “Elder Gao, do you know the cost of refining one Qianhe Zhenye? How much is one Qianhe Zhenye’s selling price to outsiders? Hehe, even a Divine Soul item may not be valued higher than a single Qianhe Zhenye. Now, do you still think I’m stingy?”

Gao Zhenjiang’s old face blushed.

“City Lord Jing Yan, don’t rush, don’t rush! Haha, it was a slip of the tongue on my part!”

“City Lord Jing Yan, are you really planning to sell Qianhe Zhenye publicly? This kind of pill is extraordinary!” Gao Zhenjiang shifted his tone.

“Yes, I’ve already decided.” Jing Yan nodded.

In fact, Jing Yan didn’t want to sell a pill like Qianhe Zhenye, but to allow Hongmeng City to develop explosively, sometimes it was necessary to sacrifice some things.
