Chapter 117: Mysterious Shop

Arriving at the City Lord's Mansion of Star War City.

After Ye Qingxuan explained his purpose, he did not encounter any difficulties and very smoothly met the manager responsible for the leasing and buying of shops in Star War City.

However, Ye Qingxuan soon came out disappointed.

It turned out that.

The shops in Star War City had already been divided up by major forces and powerhouses.

With the current popularity of Star War City, in the short term, no one would be willing to rent or sell shops.

This was also the reason why there were so many temporary buildings built by cultivators outside Star War City, and so many temporary shops opened.

For these temporary shops outside Star War City, the high-level officials of Star War City chose to let them be.

But for these temporary shops, Star War City was not without constraints.

Temporary shops also needed to be reported to the City Lord's Mansion and a contract signed before they could choose a place to open.

The main content of the contract was that the commodities sold in these temporary shops could not be lower than the market price in Star War City.

At the same price, cultivators settled in Star War City would naturally be more willing to purchase in the shops within Star War City.

In this way, the rights and interests of the shops in Star War City could be ensured.

After all, the owners of the shops in Star War City had spent no small price to get the shops in the first place.

With this constraint, in fact, the temporary shops outside Star War City couldn't earn any spirit stones at all.

Except for some active cultivators who would sometimes come to these temporary shops to turn around, there was basically no passenger flow.

The cultivators of these temporary shops were reluctant to leave for a long time.

Because once Star War City expanded again, these temporary shops could have the priority right to rent or buy shops in Star War City after expansion under the same conditions.

At that time, obtaining the priority qualification, whether used by oneself or transferred to others, could obtain no small benefits.

In the several expansions of Star War City, quite a few low-order cultivators had obtained no small resources by relying on the initial temporary shops.

At that time, the shop quotas in Star War City were extremely scarce and could be described as hard to find.

The expansion of Star War City was determined by the number of cultivators settled in the city and the passenger flow.

So when the next expansion would be, in fact, the cultivators who opened temporary shops in Star War City could not determine themselves.

Ye Qingxuan was helpless, but for the time being, there was nothing he could do; he also signed a contract in the City Lord's Mansion, chose a piece of land, and prepared to open a temporary shop first.

After leaving Star War City, Ye Qingxuan came to a piece of flat land he had chosen.

This piece of flat land was about ten miles away from the urban area of Star War City.

It was not that Ye Qingxuan didn't want to choose a closer piece of land, but there were interval requirements between temporary shops, and basically all the closer pieces of land had been occupied by others.

If it weren't for the fact that Star War City had expanded several times and the land around the city was large enough now, he wouldn't necessarily have been able to choose a piece of land within ten miles.

After arriving at the land he had chosen, Ye Qingxuan did not rush to start building the temporary shop.

He prepared to take action himself to build a spiritual artifact-level palace and then arrange some formations in the spiritual artifact palace as an emergency measure.

The temporary shop was after all outside Star War City, and although it would be protected by Star War City, Ye Qingxuan felt it was better to be careful.

Although it was only a clone, it was better not to have any trouble if possible.

Coupled with the fact that the passenger flow of the temporary shop was originally small, if Ye Qingxuan wanted to attract customers, he could only put his mind on the shop itself in the early stages.

A spiritual artifact-level palace used as a temporary shop was also uncommon among the many temporary shops in Star War City.

By then, perhaps he could attract a batch of clients and obtain a source for acquiring the corpses and cultivation origin of the Azure Demon race.

Ye Qingxuan waited quietly in place for three days.

Three days later, Ye Qingxuan's main body, which was far away in the Xuantian Sect, had already refined the spiritual artifact-level palace and engraved several types of formations.

After his clone found a safe place, he transmitted the palace to his clone through the world gate.

It was called a palace, but it was actually a small two-story shop, and the whole thing looked very simple and ancient.

After settling the shop, Ye Qingxuan gave this temporary shop a name, called "Mysterious Shop."

And this clone of his was the mysterious merchant of the Mysterious Shop.

After the temporary shop was opened, this clone of Ye Qingxuan did not walk around casually.

He began to live quietly in the Mysterious Shop, waiting for the first client to come to the door. Subsequently, Ye Qingxuan's main consciousness transferred to his other clone.

His other clone was currently wandering in Star War City, exploring information about the lower world.

Some ordinary information about the lower world was not a secret in Star War City.

On the streets or in the wine towers, there were often cultivators talking about some things that had happened in the lower world.

So Ye Qingxuan had a rough understanding of the lower world in these few days.

First were the nine major Small Thousand Worlds that had fallen in the Di Xuan Realm.

Because the Di Xuan Realm began to counter-invade the major Demon Regions under the Azure Demon Realm, the Azure Demon Realm had to draw a large number of people into the major Demon Regions to block the powerhouses of the Di Xuan Realm.

So the pressure on the Di Xuan Realm coalition forces rescuing the nine major Small Thousand Worlds was much smaller.

Nowadays, in the nine major Small Thousand Worlds, the position occupied by the Di Xuan Realm had expanded from a small city that was originally less than ten miles in radius to a large city occupying a thousand miles in radius.

They had completely gained a foothold in the nine fallen Small Thousand Worlds.

For this, the coalition forces of the Di Xuan Realm had lost quite a few Deity Transformation Realm great cultivators in the process of expansion.

Until they expanded to a thousand miles in radius and arranged heavy formations, building the city into a solid fortress, the Di Xuan Realm coalition forces stopped their expansion.

With a safe city as a stronghold, quite a few people above the Golden Core Realm in the Di Xuan Realm began to enter the nine fallen Small Thousand Worlds to take risks.

According to the plan previously formulated by the high-level officials of the Di Xuan Realm, these people entered the nine fallen worlds and began to look for demonized spiritual veins, destroy them, take out the polluted spiritual vein sources, and bring them back to the Di Xuan Realm to exchange for materials.

At the same time, these people also planted quite a few Spirit-Purifying Trees in the lower world.

The spiritual energy converted by Spirit-Purifying Trees absorbing demon energy, although it would be instantly wiped out by demon energy,

but demon energy and spiritual energy were energy of the same level, and wiping out spiritual energy would also consume a portion of demon energy.

These consumed demon energies seemed inconspicuous, but day after day, as long as the Spirit-Purifying Trees were not destroyed, the demon energy would be eliminated day by day.

So the people of the Azure Demon race had to start sending people to patrol the nine fallen worlds, and even the Demon Regions, to clear out the Spirit-Purifying Trees.

After decades of tossing, the energy level of the nine fallen worlds in the Di Xuan Realm had slightly declined.

If this continued, these nine worlds would sooner or later fall from the status of Small Thousand Worlds, and from then on, the extraordinary energy would fade, and the element rules and Great Dao laws would fall into silence.

Not only these nine worlds, but also the other Small Thousand Worlds attached to the Di Xuan Realm and the Demon Regions under the Azure Demon Realm had begun to decline day by day in the war.

The levels of the two worlds were similar, and the means would naturally not be too different.

The losses or trauma suffered by the Demon Regions under the Azure Demon Realm and the Small Thousand Worlds attached to the Di Xuan Realm were equally not light.

Ye Qingxuan combined the various information he had heard about the lower world, and his thoughts kept flowing.

He possessed the Earth Immortal inheritance, and the knowledge it contained was broad and rich, and his insight was naturally far beyond others.

This war between the two worlds seemed as if all worlds had suffered trauma of different levels, but this was not the case.

Among all worlds, only the two major main worlds, the Di Xuan Realm and the Azure Demon Realm, had not been weakened in this battle, but were slowly flourishing and beginning to climb upward.

Attached worlds were ultimately just attached worlds, and although there would be a certain origin entanglement with the main world, the origin of the attached world was ultimately not completely owned by the main world.

If the attached world was destroyed, the main world would suffer a certain trauma.

But if the level of the attached world dropped and it could no longer resist the traction of the main world, it would be swallowed by the main world and become a part of the main world.

This perhaps was also one of the plans of those high-level officials in the Di Xuan Realm, right? The Di Xuan Realm had already stayed at the peak of the Small Thousand World for no short time.

Once the Di Xuan Realm was promoted to a Great Thousand World first, not only would the Azure Demon Realm, this formidable enemy, become completely harmless, but everyone in the Di Xuan Realm would also benefit greatly.

By then, even the people in the attached worlds integrated into the Di Xuan Realm would benefit together, and even reach the sky in one step.

Directly crossing from the cultivation environment of the Small Thousand World to the Great Thousand World.

Of course, the premise of this was that the people in the attached worlds could survive this war until the day the Di Xuan Realm was successfully promoted to a Great Thousand World.

All of this was temporarily just Ye Qingxuan's conjecture.

Ye Qingxuan could not fully guess the thoughts of the high-level officials in the Di Xuan Realm now.

But as long as it does not affect his true body, his true body can remain safely behind the scenes and grow slowly.
