Chapter 364

Seeing that it would clearly be faster to reunite with an old friend, yet having to wait until later.

This feeling is still quite tormenting.

Zhongli also saw the thoughts of Xiao and the others, sighed, and said softly:

"Everyone, rest assured, I will definitely cultivate as quickly as possible and strive to resurrect our old friend at an early date."

Liuyun and the others cupped their hands and said:

"Many thanks, First Seat."

They couldn't help with the matter of resurrecting their old friend and could only rely on Zhongli, so what qualifications did they have to put pressure on him?

Looking at the Investiture of the Gods again, everyone still felt a bit reluctant to part with it.

This was, after all, the fastest way to resurrect someone...

However, Jiang Yan was still very appreciative of Zhongli's decision.

"If it were the original Investiture of the Gods used to confer godhood, there would naturally be no need to consider so much. While aptitude is important, one does not become an immortal just by having sufficient aptitude."

"With the original Investiture of the Gods, one becomes an immortal immediately upon being conferred, so there is naturally no need to worry."

"But for this mass-produced Investiture of the Gods, for those with aptitude, being conferred is a devastating disaster."

Hearing Jiang Yan say this, Alice looked enlightened.

"So, in the *Investiture of the Gods*, so many people fought until they were... cough, I mean, they fought until the heavens crumbled and the earth split."

"It was just because no one was willing to be on the Investiture of the Gods."

"For beings who haven't become immortals, being conferred is a good thing, but for those who have already become immortals and have the ability to continue moving forward,"

"being conferred cuts off their path, and from then on, they must also be subject to others."

Jiang Yan nodded with satisfaction.

"Exactly. Therefore, regarding the matter of conferring gods, you must be cautious. Do not give up thinking just because the Investiture of the Gods can forcibly resurrect certain people."

"Do not give up on thinking."

"Compared to becoming a peak Refiner of Essence into Qi, or even a State-Fortune True God who refines Qi into Spirit in one step,"

"possessing the aptitude for immortal cultivation and the qualifications to climb toward the Dao of Immortality is the most important thing."

"Cutting off someone else's path to immortality is basically a blood feud in the world of immortal cultivation."

"Everyone, you must be cautious in your intentions to confer gods."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded heavily.

"Sect Master, the price of this Investiture of the Gods..."

Ningguang still couldn't help but ask.

Although conferring gods requires caution and one should try not to confer those with aptitude,

no one could deny that the Investiture of the Gods is the most important supreme treasure of a nation.

As long as there is an Investiture of the Gods, a nation can be stable.

Therefore, the Investiture of the Gods must be exchanged for, and it would be best to also get the God-Beating Whip.

Ningguang looked at Jiang Yan with anticipation, and the latter smiled slightly.

"The Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip are one entity and will not be separated. Therefore, by exchanging for the Investiture of the Gods, you can take the God-Beating Whip along the way."

Hearing Jiang Yan say this, everyone became even more worried.

Selling two top-tier spirit artifacts together...

It was obviously more expensive!

"However..."

Jiang Yan suddenly changed the subject, and everyone seemed to see hope again.

"The Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip are not like other top-tier spirit artifacts that can only be used by people of a dynasty."

"Moreover, they don't have any abilities that immortal cultivators care about, and they are mass-produced items."

"Therefore, the Investiture of the Gods plus the God-Beating Whip will not be sold very expensively."

Upon hearing Jiang Yan say this, everyone immediately felt that hope had arrived.

"The Investiture of the Gods plus the God-Beating Whip, a total of ten million contribution points!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent, and the light of hope in their eyes dimmed instantly.

It was not that the price of ten million contribution points for the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip was too expensive.

In all fairness, even Tartaglia and the others who had just joined Shushan felt that this price was truly too cheap.

These were top-tier spirit artifacts, and two top-tier spirit artifacts were being sold together in a package for ten million.

That was just ten million low-grade spirit stones.

If people in the world of immortal cultivation knew that ten million low-grade spirit stones could buy two top-tier spirit artifacts,

they would probably say Jiang Yan was squandering his family fortune.

Although there were great limitations, and they were two spirit artifacts with basically no direct combat power,

they were still top-tier spirit artifacts!

Ordinary top-tier spirit artifacts were all purchased with high-grade spirit stones.

Not to mention anything else, just that mid-tier spirit artifact Jiang Yan put out would sell for fifteen million in the Merit Hall.

Ten million for the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip was already a very perfect price.

But while this price was cheap, it was one thing...

They really couldn't afford it.

At present, the total contribution points of the entire Shushan probably didn't even add up to five million.

The Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip were truly too expensive for everyone to afford even if they emptied their pockets.

Jiang Yan took in everyone's expressions and also saw their troubles.

But ten million contribution points was already the cheapest price for top-tier spirit artifacts.

It was merely considering that the spiritual energy recovery had begun on the Teyvat side, and fierce beasts were running rampant; if some methods to control them weren't found in advance,

in a few years, the entire Seven Nations would be in a mess.

By then, how could Ningguang and the others cultivate with peace of mind?

Moreover, although the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip were top-tier spirit artifacts,

in reality, they were not things that all Shushan disciples would pursue.

The Investiture of the Gods could only be used to confer gods and was of no help in increasing strength. They wouldn't buy the Investiture of the Gods just to confer godhood upon themselves and cut off their own future, right?

The God-Beating Whip was a bit better, but it targeted the gods conferred by the Investiture of the Gods.

For those gods, the effect of the God-Beating Whip was no less than a treasure artifact.

But when truly used against enemies, it would be good if it could exert the effect of a low-tier spirit artifact.

Both the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip were highly targeted spirit artifacts.

Furthermore, while the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip sounded high-end, in reality, just in the Scripture Library alone, Jiang Yan had found over a hundred copies today.

They really couldn't be considered precious.

But even if there were many, they couldn't be given away for free, right?

Ten million contribution points was just the right price.

Lone wolves like Lumine didn't need this stuff.

Those who needed the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Beating Whip were all Shushan disciples who were high-level officials of various nations, like Ningguang.

The price of ten million contribution points could motivate them to actively contribute to Shushan and strive in their cultivation.

Of course, Jiang Yan also knew that ten million contribution points was truly not something everyone could come up with in a short time.

Especially since everyone present, each nation would need at least one copy.

It looked like ten million, but in reality, it would be at least sixty million.

Presumably, for the next period of time, everyone would be living a life of crazily earning contribution points.

It could also be considered stimulating domestic demand.

Liuyun and the others were no longer struggling with whether it would be too selfish to confer godhood upon their old friend through the Investiture of the Gods.

Ten million contribution points...

It was hard enough for her to make a low-tier magic tool that would only sell for a few thousand or tens of thousands.

Ten million—wouldn't she have to forge until sparks flew just to scrape that together?

If there was no money, what was the point of talking about resurrection?
