Chapter 2869
Being of the same Human Race, they know the price of these Formation Disks of various levels all too well, so Zhao Tianqing and the others feel so conflicted.
These rounds of formations, from the beginning to now, have totaled exactly ten rounds.
Zhao Tianqing and the other Heavenly Palace experts all saw it; although these Formation Disks' grades are not top-notch in their view, most are of immortal grade.
In the Heavenly Palace's treasury, immortal-grade Formation Disks aren't considered treasures, but there's just so many of them.
From the start until now, even a rough count shows that the immortal-grade formations consumed have numbered in the hundreds.
Even if they aren't those true peerless treasures, such a quantity added together is still a huge sum of money.
Moreover, looking at Hong Zun and his companions, they show no sign of stopping at all.
Is the Dao One Immortal Sect too rich? A sect that came from the Xia Jie and established itself in the Immortal Realm for less than a hundred years—how could it have such resources?
Not to mention this Dao One Immortal Sect, a new sect; even those old-established immortal sects of the Immortal Realm probably wouldn't dare spend money like this.
"That's about enough, right?"
Even Tianhe couldn't help but speak up; as someone from the Heavenly Family, he too could be described as wealthy and extravagant.
Since his youth, Tianhe has dared to pat his chest and say that he spends money like flowing water.
After all, the Heavenly Family isn't short of money; moreover, in his era, he and Tianlin were both young masters of the Heavenly Family.
Has any generation of Heavenly Family young masters ever been short of money?
His ways of spending money can be described as myriad and varied.
But only today does Tianhe feel that his spending speed, compared to the Dao One Immortal Sect, is nothing but a petty trick before a master—utterly insignificant.
Seeing that there was still no sign of ending, Tianhe really couldn't help but speak.
Hearing that, Hong Zun took a sip of wine and calmly replied.
"Palace Master, please stay calm; it will be done shortly."
Huh???
"Wouldn't it be fine if you just stopped?"
You can control this Formation Disk; you don't have to wait for it to be fully consumed to stop.
But Hong Zun said this without changing his expression.
"Since we've already set it up, not using it all would be wasteful, wouldn't it?"
Huh???
Upon hearing that, Tianhe was dumbfounded—what kind of talk is this, how could it be wasteful?
If you stop this formation, you can just retrieve it after the battle ends—how could that be wasteful?
But seeing Hong Zun's calm expression, Tianhe weakly said a sentence.
"Are you serious?"
"Yeah, since we've already set it up, we definitely have to use it all."
Hong Zun naturally doesn't care about this amount of money; the Heavenly Palace has some understanding of the Dao One Immortal Sect, but it's still not enough.
The Dao One Immortal Sect's wealth-gathering ability in the Immortal Realm, including the Lower Realm, is absolutely terrifying.
Even without counting Ye Zhangqing's canteen, just the sect's control over demon beast ingredients in the Immortal Realm alone is like a treasure trove.
Moreover, after years of operation in the Immortal Realm, the Dao One Immortal Sect has indeed become the largest ingredient supplier in the Immortal Realm, almost monopolizing the entire Immortal Realm's ingredient supply.
Even forces like the Cooking King Immortal City, which concentrate immortal chefs, can only purchase ingredients from the Dao One Immortal Sect.
After all, besides the Dao One Immortal Sect, no other force in the Immortal Realm can provide such a huge quantity of demon beast ingredients.
Just this alone lets the Dao One Immortal Sect reap profits overflowing.
And with money, the Dao One Immortal Sect only does two things.
First, naturally, is to enhance various benefits for the sect's disciples.
Nowadays, the various benefits of the Dao One Immortal Sect's disciples are already common knowledge throughout the Immortal Realm.
Even the Heavenly Family and the Wushen Palace, such old-established great powers, are slightly inferior by comparison.
Precisely for this reason, even though everyone knows the Dao One Immortal Sect's foundation is shallow and lacks resources, countless people still rack their brains trying to join it.
Just as the saying goes, even if you're a pig, as long as you can join the Dao One Immortal Sect, thanks to its outrageous benefits, you can achieve instant ascension.
As for the second thing, it is to massively purchase various life-saving items, among which the most numerous are undoubtedly Formation Disks and Talisman Seals.
Put it this way, the Formation King Immortal City and the Talisman King Immortal City have long listed the Dao One Immortal Sect as their top-tier major client.
After all, the Dao One Immortal Sect's purchasing volume in these two immortal cities has already surpassed those old-established powers like the Wushen Palace and the Heavenly Family, rising to first place.
Moreover, this gap is huge, not just a little bit.
The reason for purchasing so many Formation Disks and Talisman Seals is nothing else—purely just to avoid death.
Since strength is hard to increase quickly, one naturally has to rely on external aid.
Now that they have money, they naturally have to consider their personal safety; thus, the number of Formation Disks and Talisman Seals in the Dao One Immortal Sect's treasury.
If we don't compare grades, to be blunt, even the Heavenly Palace might fall short.
Even this time, coming to Beyond the Heavens, Hong Zun and his several fellow disciples are still discussing whether to purchase a batch of high-grade Talisman Seals and Formation Disks from the Heavenly Palace to take back.
After all, the ordinary Formation Disks and Talisman Seals in the Immortal Realm give people a sense of safety that seems increasingly insufficient; we still need to figure out how to get some potent goods.
The high-grade Talisman Seals and Formation Disks in the Heavenly Palace's hands are quite good.
However, this matter hasn't yet found an opportunity to be brought up.
Zhao Tianqing and the others naturally don't know what the Dao One Immortal Sect is thinking; right now they only feel their heads buzzing.
Has the Dao One Immortal Sect always fought like this? As soon as they engage, they don't say anything, just throw money at you first and then talk?
Truly an eye-opener; such outrageous operations, even their Heavenly Palace wouldn't dare.
Under the numb gazes of everyone, the all-encompassing formation light finally stopped after twenty rounds.
As for that, Hong Zun still said with some lingering satisfaction.
"This time we also weren't prepared; otherwise we should have made it go fifty rounds to test the water."
"Huh??? Is what you're saying even human speech?"
"Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, their expressions extremely wonderful."
"However, as the formation was about to disappear, Hong Zun also didn't dare be careless, and immediately said to the Iron Peak Clan Chief."
"\"Everyone, now you have to trouble yourselves to take action. \""
"\"What's there to trouble about. \""
"Upon hearing that, the Iron Peak Clan Chief's mouth twitched; finally it was their turn to act."
"Having lived most of his life, the Iron Peak Clan Chief had never fought such an absurd battle."
"According to the Barbarian God Tribe's nature, they should have attacked as soon as the two sides met."
"But this time, the Feather God Tribe people were actually drained by Hong Zun for five or six Shíchén; in the Iron Peak Clan Chief's view, such a long time meant those Feather God Tribe folks, even if not crippled, were basically like ducks on a chopping board—completely effortless."
"Not only the Iron Peak Clan Chief, but upon hearing Hong Zun's words, the other Barbarian God Tribe strongmen also clenched their fists, eager to act."
"Why waste that effort? Just go straight ahead and it'll be done."
