Chapter 1115: Huang Song's Shock
The two who had reached the agreement found each other's gaze more pleasing; Bai Hang Holy Maiden thought for a moment and added, "Fellow Daoist, I have one more condition."
Qinglong Daoren smiled and said, "Speak."
Bai Hang Holy Maiden said, "For this deal, I hope you won't do it with others or other factions; tell me what you need, and as long as Tian Du Men can meet your request, I will take charge of those pills you have—Tian Du Men will handle them—and the price will naturally not put you at a loss."
This exclusive business, Tian Du Men consumes it all; Qinglong Daoren, however many pills you have, they want them all. Tian Du Men is huge—though not tens of thousands, it still has several thousand members—and each person consumes a massive amount of pills daily. Besides these disciples, there are many others.
For example, menial workers, many spiritual beasts, and the families of many disciples all need pills; Tian Du Men's own pill production is limited and cannot supply everyone, especially high-grade pills—those of fourth or fifth rank—whose refinement difficulty increases greatly.
Wanting to produce them quickly is not that easy.
The faction has few pill refiners; improving as a pill refiner isn't something you can just do—gaining even one level in a hundred years is already good. Unlike cultivation, with enough pills and resources you can still force advancement, but pill refining requires comprehension and accumulation through countless refinings; there is no other way.
This is why Bai Hang Holy Maiden makes such a demand: Qinglong Daoren's pills can be consumed by Tian Du Men in any amount, while the shortage Tian Du Men faces is hard to fill—just a few bottles of pills would naturally be insufficient.
High-grade pills, nobody would complain about having too many; Tian Du Men can't use them all itself, but can sell them for more resources—exactly what Qinglong Daoren needs, since he possesses pills but cannot monetize them, and leaking them would put him in great danger.
Thus Tian Du Men became his chosen partner; trading benefits both sides, and Tian Du Men naturally welcomes such arrangements.
In contrast, the Huang Family's strength is far inferior to Tian Du Men's; it cannot retain many high-grade pills. Qinglong Daoren and Bai Hang Holy Maiden both know this, so she says that by cornering the exclusive business, they first let Tian Du Men's strength surge, then sell the pills for more resources—killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, Tian Du Men will not let Qinglong Daoren suffer a loss; the resources to be given will be agreed upon in advance.
"No problem, as long as Tian Du Men doesn't owe me my spiritual herbs, I can accept your condition." Qinglong Daoren nodded readily.
Once the pills are given to Tian Du Men, how they handle them is their business; Qinglong Daoren doesn't interfere.
Whether they consume them themselves or sell them for resources is up to them; they can gain more resources that way, and Qinglong Daoren won't be jealous.
This is a transaction, also a cooperation, each relying on their own ability.
Bai Hang Holy Maiden smiled and extended her right hand: "Happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation."
They shook hands again, sincerely achieving cooperation.
This is their cooperation, and also their mutual acknowledgment.
Bai Hang Holy Maiden breathed a sigh of relief; having reached the agreement and cooperation, returning to Tian Du Men would also serve as an explanation, and she believed the sect elders would certainly be excited upon seeing those pills.
This is an opportunity for Tian Du Men; Cangzhou is vast and rich in resources, yet Tian Du Men lies in a remote corner, and everyone wants to advance further rather than grow old in this place.
With pills, hope naturally follows.
Bai Hang Holy Maiden got what she wanted, no longer lingering; she intends to inform the sect and her master.
Those pills, she will naturally keep some for herself as travel expenses for this trip.
Xinran Zhanglao said softly, "Qinglong Daoren, you've cooperated with her—aren't you afraid of Tian Du Men's side?"
Bai Hang Holy Maiden is under a restriction, so I don't fear she'll act against me—but what about Tian Du Men?
Who knows what this sect might do? If they ever want more, wanting those things, wouldn't that be...?
Offending such a great sect ends miserably; they could not possibly withdraw unscathed.
Qinglong Daoren waved his hand: "Don't worry, they are smart people and won't do such foolish things; Tian Du Men's situation is also poor, being watched by the Mu Long Family, with many other forces around and the Mangshan Mountain Range—if they don't become stronger, they will soon be wiped out."
"Tian Du Men's situation is not good either; that's why I cooperate with them—they provide us with more resources, letting us grow quickly and also help our original side."
"With ample resources, our cultivation speed can increase further; give us a little more time, and we… will not fear them."
"Furthermore, at that time I will set up a transmission formation linking to our world; when that happens, if our original selves want to come, they can come directly."
Once the channel is successfully established, our original selves can come here anytime they wish, and if they encounter danger, they can also return.
Later we will destroy the transmission formation, and those people will never be able to find them again.
That is their retreat, and also their passage.
Xinran Zhanglao heard this, his eyes flickering.
"So, you've had this plan for a long time?"
Qinglong Daoren smiled and nodded: "Not bad; I've always wanted to set up a transmission formation linking Longshe Shan, so that we and our original selves can be connected, and various resources from Tianwai can be sent back."
"To change our world, making it more suitable for cultivation."
Xinran Zhanglao's mouth fell open as he gazed at the man before him; at this moment, how… majestic he was.
Wholeheartedly devoted to their world, if he achieves this step, that world will usher in a great outbreak.
"If that's the case, then I can only accompany you in giving it my all." Xinran Zhanglao supported Qinglong Daoren's idea; this step, the first step, has already been taken, and what remains is to see how Bai Hang Holy Maiden's side will act.
Qinglong Daoren laughed: "No need to be so decisive; there is no danger, and we are still quite safe for now."
"Besides Tian Du Men, I also have the Huang Family; my disciple there will certainly not disappoint me."
"Look, he isn't here, is he?"
Outside the formation, Huang Yan had already arrived, sneaking over and bringing Huang Song along; the two entered the formation familiarly.
Huang Yan knew what to do, walking along the passage; Qinglong Daoren opened a passage for him, and Huang Song gazed at the unfamiliar surroundings—the formation, the passage, and the mists.
After undergoing a fantastical journey, Huang Song appeared on Longshe Shan; at first sight, Huang Song was stunned by Longshe Shan.
The rushing scent of spiritual herbs, rich and fragrant, filled his body and mind.
Moreover, the boundless spiritual energy cleanse made his body and mind delighted.
