Perhaps it was because of watching the "Mirage Collection" that Xue Chen's mind was greatly sublimated, his mind was reorganized and optimized, and the injuries in his body were repaired in less than three days.
And because of rescuing Yuqiong, he had to live in Jiuxiao Imperial City for a period of time, waiting for Jiutian Qiansheng to persuade the Elders Association to ask Zuqing Jinxian to take action.
However, he did not live in the palace all the time and cultivate. Instead, he went out to visit the Jiuxiao Imperial City to experience the ancient grandeur and prosperity here. He also conducted routine market research to increase his understanding of the business operation rules of different regions.
After walking around for a few days, he had a general understanding of the situation in the city. It can be said that the order under the emperor's feet is stable, there is almost no darkness, everyone must abide by the laws and regulations, and fighting is prohibited in other places except the fighting platform.
He also saw hundreds of teleportation arrays, communicating with various affiliated forces of Zu Qingting. There were dimensional caves, living planets, and even some continents floating in the starry sky, similar to the Quadruple Continent.
Almost every moment, experts from all walks of life gathered in Jiuxiao Imperial City, even from different races, but they were all from the good and lawful camp. In addition to understanding the secrets of Jiuxiao, these people would also trade specialties from various places. Xue Chen saw
Those rare treasures, his eyes kept flickering, and he had the urge to resell the materials again.
But Yuqiong hasn't been rescued yet. She is always on standby to help open up that small world, and she doesn't have time to do this.
"However, my Lingbao Trading Company will expand to the entire Cangmo Star Territory in the future. Only one headquarters in Jiuhuan Star is not enough to coordinate operations. A branch should be established in Jiuxiao Imperial City." After Xue Chen had this idea, he
Go choose a location immediately.
But it's not that easy.
Although the interior of Jiuxiao Imperial City is vast, the land price is still very high, even worse than Tianluxing, and every inch of land is precious. When he inquired about it casually, he was frightened by the '100,000 third-grade immortal stone per square meter' in the central prime location.
.
Of course, all he needed was an office space, and he had no plans to set up a Lingbao store yet, as long as it was not too remote, so he quickly found an old street where there happened to be some vacant stone hall lofts.
After confirming the address, he went to the land management agency of Zu Qingting to apply for a lease contract, and then used magical powers to repair the attic, giving it a new look. Although it was not magnificent, it was bright and clean.
Then, he mailed a secret letter through Tianbao Trading Company to inform Yu Nian that he had built a branch in Jiuxiao Imperial City and here, and also asked Jin Hong to come over and serve as the branch manager.
After that, he walked around the streets and searched for treasures. Using the mysterious abilities of the inner world and the divine pond, he could discover treasures that ordinary immortals were unaware of.
"This meteorite should contain a few grains of fifth-grade star sand, as well as the broken sword. My divine heart faintly sensed that it contained a sword intent. Although it was incomplete, it was ancient and sharp..." As long as Xue Chen finds the treasure
He wouldn't let it go, and he would chat with the stall owners and compete with each other.
And since he had the initiative and actual information, he naturally obtained the treasure easily. However, there are only a few relics after all, and a street would be lucky to have one.
And almost none of them are really useful to him, because he needs sixth-grade materials, which contain a trace of the source of mysteries for him to refine or comprehend.
"Yeah! It turned out to be a star core!" Xue Chen suddenly stopped while walking on the road, turned around and looked into a tall attic. There was a crystal box hanging on the wall in the middle of the hall, and inside it was a dark blue crystal core.
There seems to be a real starry sky hidden inside the crystal core. The starlight, stars, and star phenomena are lifelike, deep and charming, and are the core of the stars.
Xue Chen once obtained two, one was obtained from the planet that was about to be destroyed, and the other was stolen from the Bingchen Palace in the Tianhe Immortal Domain. He obtained it together with the Jiuyin Stone Tablet and used it to condense the Luo Tianxing Huagai. Cui
The eagle also got one.
However, the one he sees now is different. The divine meaning of the star contained in it has been sublimated, and a trace of virtual law has been derived. It is a peak sixth-grade or almost seventh-grade treasure.
"How dare you put it in the main hall? Aren't you afraid of being robbed?" Xue Chen was confused at first, but he was relieved after seeing the three-character plaque of 'Tianya Pavilion': "It turns out that it is one of the two pavilions. No wonder he is rich and wealthy."
Then, like many customers who were attracted by the star core, he entered the Tianya Pavilion.
Looking around the hall, I saw a dazzling array of crystal cabinets, in which were placed pieces of rare treasures, the lowest being the fourth grade. There were also three king-grade swords hanging below the star core. They were stunningly sharp and had a high-end atmosphere.
grade route.
However, the sharp edge of the Wangpin Immortal Sword cannot withstand people's curiosity, especially the immortals like Yu Xue Chen who are new to Jiuxiao Imperial City. They are indulged in the dreamy light of the deep blue star core and experience the exquisite starlight secrets.
At the same time, he also heard some people mention the origin of this star core in discussions.
"Wow! I have never seen such a charming crystal nucleus. If it were set in my jade crown, I would rather lose ten thousand years of life." A beautiful fairy said crazily.
"Tsk tsk! It's so beautiful. It would be great if it were my collection, but even with all my wealth I can't afford it, ugh!" A fat businessman with both hands covered with gemstone rings sighed with emotion.
There was also an old star gentleman with pale hair and beard who mysteriously said:
"This is not an ordinary star core. It is divided according to the level of the planet, which is the blue crystal level. It contains the power of life creation. It is said that placing it in a planet can allow it to evolve into the blue crystal level. The Tianya Star in Tianya Pavilion is
Made from the same star core."
Everyone was shocked, and then someone asked: "It's so magical, where did Tianya Pavilion come from?"
"Haha! Of course it's Lanyuan Xinghai!" Old Xingjun stroked his beard and smiled.
Everyone suddenly realized, but then most people shook their heads and sighed: "The Blue Abyss Star Sea is far away in the Blue Abyss Fairyland, and the abyss is extremely dangerous. If you don't have the strength to go there, you will die."
Xue Chen's eyes flashed after hearing this. He also knew that the Blue Abyss Star Sea is located in the center of the Blue Abyss Star Field. The star trails in this star field are very strange. The overall arrangement is in the shape of an abyss. The center is the Blue Abyss Star Sea. I don't know how big it is.
deep.
But there is a gathering of all the starlight essence of a star field, and the space is twisted into a spiral shape, giving birth to a large number of galaxies, the essence of the space system, and legend has also erupted a large number of star cores. Today, many living planets in the fairyland are
Those star cores evolved.
But after seeing this dark blue high-grade star core with their own eyes today, people generally believe that this legend is not groundless.
"If I want to be promoted to the Star-Suppressing Realm in perfect condition, I need a huge amount of galaxy materials. It is best to have this kind of blue crystal star core. I must go to the Blue Abyss Star Sea when I have time in the future and be banned in one fell swoop!" Xue Chen has already secretly said.
determination.
Then he turned around and left. He knew that Tianya Pavilion would definitely not sell this treasure, so he continued Taobao.
After half a month, his reputation spread throughout Jiuxiao Imperial City, and it was said that there was a mysterious figure with extremely sharp eyesight who bought many hidden treasures.
The reason is that Xue Chen bought an extremely rare sixth-grade fire phoenix molten stone from a stall owner. It was contaminated by the essence and blood of the fire phoenix beast and then floated and gestated in the lava for tens of millions of years before it could be used. Unfortunately, the other party did not know the product and thought it was possible.
Just an ordinary lava stone.
But a few days later, a friend of the stall owner came over and told him that a dim phoenix feather was found near the place where the fire phoenix molten stone was found. It was verified by an appraiser from Tianbao Trading Company. Only then did he know the origin of the fire phoenix molten stone.
True identity and precious value.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The treasure had already been bought by Xue Chen, and he often changed his appearance, so he couldn't find it at all.
As for the Fire Phoenix molten stone, it was smelted into the Divine Sword Mountain. At the same time, it was also strengthening the secrets of the fire laws in the inner world. Especially after the sword spirit absorbed the meaning of nirvana in the Fire Phoenix molten stone, it also grew several inches, truly
Like a spiritual child.
Although his spiritual intelligence is still low and he still can't speak human language, he can understand other people's thoughts. He often plays with Sanye and other medicine kings. He also plays on the seaside, catching fish, catching and releasing, releasing and catching.
,Things that are boring in the eyes of adults are the most fun in the eyes of children like them.
After scouring the entire Jiuxiao Imperial City, Xue Chen also stopped and counted the harvest. They were all inconspicuous ancient items, but their real value should not be underestimated. Some of them contained the inheritance of titled powerful people, and some were
Rare and top-quality materials that have never been discovered before due to different reasons.
Then they are classified and processed, and the complete artifacts are left to the merchant house, while the broken ones are broken down and refined to expand the inner world.
Two days later, Jin Hong finally arrived here with a dozen people, met with Xue Chen, and brought Yu Nian's report.
Because Xue Chen had been running around previously and was unable to accept Yu Nian's messages, only then did he fully understand the development of the business in the past few years.
To put it simply, it is 'the speed of a rocket'. Because of the thirty-six caves he left behind and the facilities inside that are useful for cultivation, more than thirty immortals have been born in the trading company in the past two years. Together with the immortals recruited from outside, the total has been
Over one hundred.
Yu Nian also proposed to recruit mortal monks from other planets to train them and create more immortals.
The resources he discovered or created during his travels are also being developed and utilized in an orderly manner, and new branches have been opened on multiple living planets.
After Xue Chen finished reading and crushed the secret jade slip, Jin Hong immediately asked: "Business owner, what should we do next?"
"Since you were selected by Yu Nian, you must have the ability to take charge of your own affairs. I believe in you and go ahead and do it." After Xue Chen said a few words, he just dropped a guiding jade slip and had no other instructions.
Because he was busy strengthening his inner world, increasing his background, and was always ready to open up that small world and fight against the Demon Emperor, and he had no time or thought to teach them more.
However, the jade slips contain his guidance, for example, the most important thing is the positioning of this branch, which is not to make money through operation, but to accumulate contacts and resource channels to provide help to each branch in the future.
Then he was about to get up and go back to the backyard to continue dismantling the broken utensils, but he was interrupted by an arrogant voice and stopped:
"Everyone in your street has told me that the lease contract will be terminated within three days..."
