I Seek Immortality Through Serendipity

Mountains and rivers of the world still remain, as do the sects and masters.

Cultivation must continue, and meals still must be had.

A True Immortal has fallen, yet the Celestial Palace endures.

Even though many years have passed without a decree from the Celestial Palace, the True Immortal disciples above still live, constituting the most fearsome power in the world.

Balance can still be maintained for now.

Gu Yuan and others returned to the Cyan Peak Daoist School, where they received this information from Master Yunyang.

”The Celestial Palace resides beyond the heavens, indescribably distant. Not to mention True Immortals, even the Immortal attendants above are beyond our imagination...”

”This matter is extensive, but holds little relevance to us.”

”Should a major event occur, there will naturally be those who intervene.”

Master Yunyang surveyed the group and slowly spoke to Gu Yuan and the others.

Upon hearing this, they nodded in agreement, feeling somewhat reassured.

”However, with the fall of the True Immortal, the world has lost its suppression, inevitably birthing numerous discordances, and possibly some rebellious individuals with ambitions to incite chaos...”

”This must be guarded against. The current strategy is still to strive in cultivation to prepare for the unforeseen.”

”Coincidentally, you have triumphed over the Eight Rivers Demon Race and obtained many Spirit Islands, each possessing extraordinary resources, along with our school’s provisions, sufficient to push beyond the South Mountain Domain and establish trade routes to other domains...”

After a brief pause, Master Yunyang continued slowly.

Hearing these words, Gu Yuan and others were slightly taken aback.

Only Master Tiandou’s expression remained unchanged, seemingly already anticipating this.

Opening a trade route is a momentous task.

After all, cross-domain interaction, separated by countless miles, is an exceedingly challenging endeavor.

Yet once successful, the profits will be extremely substantial.

For once a trade route is successfully opened, it can facilitate the exchange of copious cultivation resources and the dissemination of various Marvelous Techniques and Strange Arts.

The stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade.

This will greatly accelerate the progress of cultivators.

Gu Yuan once traveled through the Dao Origin Sect, located within the Western Sea Realm, which is even more barren than the South Mountain Domain, the most impoverished region among the Great Domains. Yet, through trade route establishment, it leaped to become a Tier Four Sect, rightfully a dominating force within the Western Sea Realm.

Establishing trade routes is a matter of great interest.

But many considerations must be taken into account.

How to establish a foothold in another domain?

Are there sufficient precious resources for trade, ensuring profits?

Where does the array come from?

All require consideration.

Currently, with the Eight Rivers Demon Island under control, each island contains special Spirit Ore outputs for trade.

For example, Iron Ore derived from the Iron-Producing Giant Demon excrement, and Golden Spirit Grass on the Golden-Horned Rhinoceros Demon Island capable of strengthening the body, both are exotic species rarely seen outside.

But besides these, numerous other issues need resolution.

”May I ask the Dean, where should the trade route be directed?”

After a slight silence, Master Xuan Guang inquired.

”I have a deep friendship with Master Cangming from the Thousand Waves Pavilion in the East Mountain Realm. I’ve previously discussed this with him, and he is willing to liaise for our school, seeking a sacred site as the location for the Cyan Peak Treasure Pavilion.”

”Regarding the array, I recently discussed this with the Pavilion Master of South Mountain Pavilion, and he is willing to invest and fully support it!”

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuan and others fell silent, saying no more.

South Mountain Pavilion, founded on trade, profiting abundantly through connections with the Dao Origin Sect via Teleportation Array, would be reluctant to fully support the Cyan Peak Daoist School by sharing its trade assets.

However, since Master Yuan Yang has stated this, it must be true.

After all, South Mountain Pavilion is not a Tier Four force, even though it supposedly hosts a Loose Cultivator in the Daoist Embryo Realm, no one has ever seen them.

Yet Master Yunyang, having achieved the Daoist Embryo nearly a millennia ago, is indeed one of the top powers in the South Mountain Domain.

Gu Yuan sighed inwardly.

It seems the fall of the True Immortal still brought ripples.

The Dean’s actions are evidently more aggressive.
