Chapter 1989: Split Up and Act

"Alright!"

He Pingsheng had no choice!

He took out ten thousand mid-grade divine gold ingots from his ring and placed them before the woman, asking: "How long until it can be activated?"

The woman said: "Six more years!"

"Six years?" He Pingsheng couldn't help raising his voice: "You said it would be soon, yet it's this long?"

"Yeah..." The woman gave a sweet smile and said: "This teleportation array to the divine capitals of the major divine nations opens once every sixty years, that is, once per sexagenary cycle!"

"Some people have already been waiting here for over fifty years, so senior, you're actually quite fortunate—saying it will open soon is not an exaggeration at all!"

"After all, we need to gather enough people to ensure profit during the teleportation process!"

He Pingsheng could understand, and he asked: "Then... is the teleportation array to the Yaoguang Divine Nation's divine capital also opening in six years?"

Now it's not just He Pingsheng alone who needs to take the teleportation array—there's also Old Cao.

Old Cao needs to go to the Yaoguang Divine Nation to gather news about Rain Thought.

If we bring Old Cao now to the Xuanji Divine Nation, then the teleportation array there also opens once every sixty years, and we don't know when Old Cao will be able to reach the Yaoguang Divine Nation to gather news!

If we can send Old Cao away from here, that would be perfect!

"Not synchronized..." the woman said: "You need to go ask the Yaoguang Hall over there—they will tell you the exact timing!"

"Alright!" He Pingsheng first purchased a ticket to the Xuanji Divine Nation.

Then he left the Xuanji Hall and entered the Yaoguang Hall.

Similarly, this hall was silent and nearly empty.

Inside the hall, only one woman with cultivation in the God Sovereign Realm was present.

Seeing He Pingsheng approach, the woman gave her signature smile: "Senior..."

He Pingsheng asked: "When will the teleportation array to the Yaoguang Divine Nation open?"

The woman said: "Soon, it will open very soon... the exact time is... let me check!"

She glanced at the record and said: "Ten months and four days remain!"

He Pingsheng's eyes lit up: "Good... give me a teleportation ticket!"

So, He Pingsheng bought another ticket to the Yaoguang Divine Nation!

He Pingsheng found a secluded spot and released Old Cao.

"Damn..." Old Cao saw the teleportation platform of the array and exclaimed a curse: "Young Master, is this the teleportation platform? It's so huge?"

He Pingsheng nodded.

Then he told Old Cao his plan.

Old Cao said: "Good... Young Master, this arrangement is reasonable... but, after I inquire about Miss Rain Thought's whereabouts, where should I find you?"

This is a problem.

He Pingsheng said: "You go to the capital of the Xuanji Divine Nation, I will leave a message for you at the largest merchant guild there—when you arrive, simply ask the shopkeeper on the first floor, and the passphrase will be my name!"

"This is the divine gold for the next teleportation—take it for now!"

He produced a storage ring containing one hundred thousand mid-grade divine gold.

"Good!" Old Cao said, "No problem with this!"

After speaking, Old Cao swept his divine sense into the storage ring and exclaimed in shock: "Young Master, one hundred thousand mid-grade?"

"This this this... does teleportation really require this much divine gold?"

"Good heavens, isn't this just extortion?"

He Pingsheng said: "Not that much—teleportation once costs about ten thousand or so!"

"That's still extortion!" Old Cao stared at the teleportation array and said: "If one day we master spatial laws across the three thousand divine nations of the divine realm and build more teleportation arrays there, hehehe... then we'll surely make a killing, making money while lying down!"

He Pingsheng patted his shoulder and said: "Alright, stop thinking only about making money!"

"Once you reach the divine capital, with crowds and experts everywhere, restrain your nature and keep that insatiable, sharp-tongued mouth of yours in check!"

"Stay safe!"

Old Cao gave a hehe laugh: "Young Master, rest assured—I, Old Cao, guarantee mission completion!"

He Pingsheng said: "Wait inside the hall for now—I also need to go rest upstairs!"

Everyone who bought a ticket, if willing, may wait in the corresponding hall—several floors above the hall can be used for temporary rest.

Ten months later, the entire teleportation plaza was cleared out completely.

Then all those needing to teleport boarded the teleportation platform of the array.

A mighty cyan-white light pillar boomed upward, piercing the clouds.

The tremendous sound could even be heard throughout the entire Baodu.

He Pingsheng also saw it!

He looked out through the hall's window—outside was a wall of white light.

That wasn't a wall, merely because the light pillar was too vast, making it appear like a wall.

Old Cao had been teleported away!

Another six years passed, and now it was He Pingsheng's turn to teleport.

"Everyone..." someone arrived at the hall where He Pingsheng was resting, addressing the densely packed crowd: "Teleportation will activate within half an hour—please proceed to the teleportation platform!"

The crowd, dark and dense, all took their places on the teleportation platform.

He Pingsheng also found a random spot to sit, his gaze sweeping across the surroundings.

Here there were approximately four hundred people, and over eighty percent were in the God Venerable Realm.

This...

This result somewhat surprised He Pingsheng.

But thinking it over, it made sense.

Ordinary Lower Gods generally lack the wealth to ride this kind of teleportation array, and they have no need to ride it either.

Even a God Monarch might not be willing to shell out a hundred million solid divine gold for a teleport.

So those with such financial means are basically all God Venerable Realm experts.

But once one reaches the God King Realm, it's a different story.

Take Yu Si — piloting her own flying boat from one Divine Capital to the neighboring one would take at most ten years or so.

Rather than wait sixty years here and spend a hundred million, better to fly the distance oneself.

Above that are God Emperors.

God Emperors can open void passages with ease, so they have even less use for teleportation arrays.

That's why the situation arises where everyone on the teleportation array is a God Venerable Realm expert.

"Fellows..." An old man in a gray Daoist robe stepped out; he looked at the crowd and said, "This old man is a disciple of the Transcending Void Divine Valley, in charge of the array teleportation affairs of the Bai Yu Divine Kingdom!"

"We will activate the array shortly and send you to the Xuanji Divine Kingdom!"

"However, before sending you to the Xuanji Divine Kingdom, there are still a few matters to mention!"

He Pingsheng looked at the old man, feeling a vague sense of familiarity.

Suddenly, he remembered: the Transcending Void Divine Valley.

Back when he was in the Scorpion King City, he had purchased the spatial array that could shrink a divine boat at a branch of the Transcending Void Divine Valley.

The insignia on those Transcending Void Divine Valley disciples was exactly the same as this old man's.

Good fellow, so he's actually a disciple of the Space God Emperor.

Tsk tsk tsk...

Could it be that the teleportation arrays of all three thousand Divine Kingdoms in the entire Divine Realm are all controlled by the Space God Emperor and the Transcending Void Divine Valley?

If so, that truly fulfills Old Cao's saying: making money while lying down.
