Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire
Nine Cauldrons Peak.
Xu Nianhua respectfully bowed to Alkaid, "True Monarch."
"Take these Pure Yang Great Pills, and I have also written down the insights on cultivation techniques for you up to the Golden Core stage. Next, strive to cultivate the Blazing White Golden Core quickly."
Alkaid handed over a treasure containing a large amount of Pure Yang Great Pills to Xu Nianhua.
Xu Nianhua hesitated for a moment but still accepted the treasure.
"Thank you, True Monarch."
"Hmm, give me your identity token, and I will grant you the control permissions for the formation of the third sub-peak, where you will cultivate on that mountain from now on."
"Yes."
Xu Nianhua handed over his identity token.
Alkaid operated briefly and quickly granted him control permission for entering and exiting the formation.
The mountain range in which Nine Cauldrons Peak was located stretched for thousands of miles. Besides the main peak where he was located, there were thirty-three sub-peaks. It wouldn't be a problem to accommodate one person, or even millions or tens of millions of people.
Of course, cultivators have high privacy demands. Although there were many formations that could blockade space, the area would be crowded even with just a few thousand cultivators.
Previously, Alkaid had not dealt much with Xu Nianhua because he hadn't clearly discerned the internal situation of the Heavenly Dao Sect.
But now...
Knowing that the Heavenly Dao Sect was testing him but kept within certain limits, he dared to bring Xu Nianhua over.
"Junior Sect Leader, your purchased materials have arrived."
At this moment, a voice from Lv Suoyu came from outside.
"Good."
Alkaid stepped forward and took the storage treasure handed over by him. After a glance through the materials worth three million Pure Yang Great Pills inside, he nodded with satisfaction.
Theoretically, a Void Boundary Stone had a high chance of transforming the Two Realms Ruler into a Dao Artifact. However, after selling the Dragon Steed Flying Boat, Alkaid no longer had a speed advantage. If he encountered danger, he might not be able to escape successfully, so the transformation of the Two Realms Ruler was crucial.
Taking advantage of his current wealth, he spent another three million Pure Yang Great Pills to buy a series of artifact refining materials, striving to ensure the seamless transformation of the Two Realms Ruler.
Right then, he didn't waste time. After activating the formation of Nine Cauldrons Peak, he quickly started cultivating the Two Realms Ruler using the Spirit Nurturing Art and the Treasure Refining Art.
While cultivating the Two Realms Ruler, he also had enough time to digest the news that the progress of the "Immortal Path - Refining the Void" had been pushed to 92%.
...
Several months later.
Alkaid rubbed his temples, which were a bit sore from "studying" for too long.
After a while, he summarized some useful information.
"Three Thousand Great Daos, only forty-nine are propagated in Northern Sea Star, not even three hundred Great Divine Powers that may not let one integrate Dao to become a Dao Lord..."
In the middle of his ruminations, Alkaid swept over the information he summarized again, "With 'high-dimensional cognition,' I see further development of Supreme Divine Powers... also only nine hundred and three kinds, in other words, even I, am estimated only to perceive nine hundred and three types of Dao Techniques, mastering nine hundred and three Dao inheritances."
This is a limitation of high-dimensional cognition.
He was merely endowed with high-dimensional cognition, not truly omniscient and omnipotent.
An ant changing to a human's perspective can clearly see the vastness of the world, but as mighty as humans are to ants, they still cannot perceive the complete picture of the universe.
"The scope I can perceive has actually exceeded the bounds of Northern Sea Star. This can be inferred from the first Mysterious Origin Creation Technique I got from 'Creation Group,' which allows cultivators to cultivate up to the Ninth Layers of Golden Core without any danger, showing its extraordinary nature. But the 'Creation Group' possessing such techniques doesn't exist in Northern Sea Star, indicating it comes from another world."
Not only Mysterious Origin Creation Technique, but the nine hundred and three Dao Techniques were the same.
After a moment of consideration, he said, "I am quite curious about the situation at the Northern Sea battlefield. True Monarch Wan can stay and tell me about the interesting stories from the Northern Sea battlefield, select some more people to operate various areas of Nine Cauldrons Peak, and the rest can go and station themselves at the Refined Gold Mountains."
He looked at the many War Immortals present, "Heavenly Dao Sect and Taiyi Immortal Sect each hold fifty percent in the Refined Gold Mountains, and of our held fifty percent, another fifty percent will have to be sent back to the sect, the remaining fifty percent belongs to my profits. From these profits, you may keep ten percent for your daily cultivation."
As these words were spoken, the eyes of the War Immortals from the Cangwu lineage brightened slightly.
The materials produced by the Refined Gold Mountains could be sold for about 6 million Pure Yang Great Pills annually. Out of the 1.5 million that went to Alkaid, even just ten percent of that was 150 thousand.
150 thousand Pure Yang Great Pills were barely enough for their daily consumption.
As for more profits, that would have to be figured out by themselves; Alkaid providing them with a safety net was already exceedingly generous.
...
Most of the War Immortals of the Cangwu lineage chose to go to the Refined Gold Mountains, while the normal Golden Cores stayed at Nine Cauldrons Peak.
Alkaid then reorganized some of the original positions at Nine Cauldrons Peak to accommodate them.
In this way, they were essentially receiving income support from the Heavenly Dao Sect.
High positions, such as managerial roles, were a few thousand, and there were also several hundred others.
For Sunburst Golden Core Level cultivators, having several hundred Pure Yang Great Pills a year already put them ahead of 90% of their peers.
After all, in some smaller forces like Hundred Flowers Valley and Iron Blood Sect at Cloud River Mountains, where Blazing White Golden Cores sat in power, the annual income was also only a few hundred Pure Yang Great Pills.
However, while other people's positions were changed, Lv Suoyu's position was still retained.
As he had joined the Heavenly Dao Sect not long ago, it was still necessary to have someone who was well-acquainted with the affairs of the Heavenly Dao Sect to answer some common sense questions.
...
In the guest hall.
After inviting Wan Liugui to sit down, Alkaid did not engage in small talk but directly asked, "What exactly is the situation at the Northern Sea battlefield?"
"The Northern Sea battlefield... it involves the human cultivators leading other cultivation forces against different cultivation systems of foreign races."
Wan Liugui said, pausing for a moment, "The battlefield we are in covers a wide area. Forces like the Demonic Path and Nine Veins of Demon Immortals send people to plunder resources of surrounding worlds, some of which are quite valuable... Like our Cangwu Great World, many Dao Materials."
Alkaid listened and nodded.
When the Moon Demon Empire invaded, it was for these materials.
Of course, for practitioners, to the demonic path, they are also considered materials.
And relatively high-valued ones at that.
"If the assets of every world could be scraped together, it wouldn't be inferior to a Dao Artifact. Forces like the Nine Veins of Demon Immortals, demonic paths, and the top ten Divine Races, after looting a series of worlds, would return to Northern Sea Star. Our task is to intercept these returnees, loaded with loot. Every successful interception allows us to keep some of the seized foreign resources, the rest is submitted to the sect," Wan Liugui explained.
Alkaid listened and nodded, "What is the standard of those foreign races that loot surrounding worlds?"
"Depending on the scale, as the worlds to be looted are often far away, there would typically be entities like Hollow Void War Immortals in place, using warships for Void Shuttle, with larger scale raiding teams even having Demon Kings equivalent to the Hollow Void, or Demon Emperors of the Void Refinement Realm in command. If the scale of the war expands, even the Shattered Void would be involved," Wan Liugui said, pausing for a moment, "After all, some worlds' resistance forces are not weak, like during the heyday of our Cangwu Great World, with dozens of Hollow Void War Immortals present, a suicidal assault led by a Void Realm Demon King would only have one path — death."
"Void Refinement Realm Demon Emperor..."
Listening to this, Alkaid, while recognizing the dangers of the outer battlefield, also had to abandon his original plan.
When Wan Liugui heard Alkaid inquiring about it, he seemed to realize something and was slightly surprised, "You're not planning to go to the outer battlefield for training, are you? It must not be! The outer battlefield might not be very dangerous for those in Hollow Void, but you are different. You are a genius expected to reach Void Refinement. Not only have the Ten Great Immortal Paths heard your great name, but it's likely that demons have also put you on their hit list. If you go to the battlefield, you will definitely be targeted."
"I understand."
Alkaid sighed, realizing that the outer battlefield of Northern Sea Star was indeed a high-level map.
"Therefore, I can only go to relatively safer places."
"Safer?"
"The Deep Blue Sea area, where Demon Kings and Demon Emperors were eradicated, is not bad," Alkaid said.
With only 8% progress left, even if not hunting Demon Kings, by clearing out more eighth and ninth rank demons, he should be able to complete it.
