Starspace Region and destroy the ghost nest!”

Announcements flew rapidly out of the Immortal Pagoda, culminating in the news of one hundred and eight sixth step kings entering Starspace Region!

This last announcement scared everyone witless.
One hundred and eight sixth step kings?! It didn’t matter whether Multitude Region possessed so many—and they didn’t—how and where had the Immortal Pagoda gotten so many kings to follow its banner?!

What kind of background did the pagoda possess?

Over the course of the next month, Starspace Region nearly exploded from the inside.
The ghosts that’d been calmly building the ghost nest came under attack at every second.
Any ghost kings beneath third step kinghood were instantly decimated by Principal Nineheavens Talismans.
Ordinary ghosts turned to dust before they even had a chance to approach cultivators.

Three thousand ghost king crystals were delivered to the Immortal Pagoda during this time, and three thousand premium crystal veins flowed out to the various kings of the Hongmeng.
A near infinite number of ghosts beneath kinghood died as well, their value worth almost a dozen premium crystal veins.

The Immortal Pagoda carried on with throwing its wealth around and turned no visitor away.
All sorts of supplemental treasures streamed out of it to the rest of the realm.

After a while, ghost crystals even started becoming another type of currency in the Hongmeng.
However, they were difficult to store as they easily evaporated when not held in seed storage or storage treasures.

Ultimately, their inability to be used for cultivation nipped the burgeoning trend in the bud.

One thing out of the Immortal Pagoda’s control was whether anyone killed another for their reserves of ghost crystals, or outright robbed someone else’s spoils.
At the end of the day, it was more efficient to rob someone of their purple crystals.

Robbers were robbers everywhere they went.
They would steal purple crystals or any other treasure they could lay their hands on, if not ghost crystals.

But no matter what, though the Immortal Pagoda incurred hefty financial losses with their mission for ghost crystals, they reaped a sterling reputation in return.
They were far more beloved than the Haotian Tower now and cultivators much more willing to shop there out of gratitude.

Although the Haotian Tower was tempted to imitate their competition, they ultimately couldn’t make up their minds.
Trading purple crystals for ghost crystals was no different from just giving the purple crystals away.

What they didn’t know was that, out of the throngs of customers in their halls everyday, many came from the Immortal Pagoda.
They purchased items from the tower, then turned around to sell them at double the price or trade them for ghost crystals in the Immortal Pagoda.
As long as the shut-ins running Haotian Tower might’ve lived, they really didn’t know how to do business.
They were absolutely no match for Lu Yun.

Though Shenyu discovered signs of this arrangement, he refrained from adjusting Haotian Tower’s prices.
With the Immortal Pagoda being viewed more favorably than the tower already, no one would purchase from them if they increased their prices.

“Sir, what should we do?” In the Haotian Tower of Multitude City, some kings from the Immortal Region hovered around Shenyu with anxious expressions.

“Human King, take the cultivators who were once part of the Colosseum and head to Cloudexit City.
I know you’re a disciple of Origin World, it’s been gravely injured and secluded itself in the Qi Sea.
The Immortal King did that to them, so you should know what to do.” Shenyu swept the Human King with a faint glance.

“Sir, the Immortal Pagoda killed my third brother and hung my second brother in front of its doors.
Of course I know what to do,” the Human King took a deep breath.
He knew about Haotian Tower’s background, but with Origin World plainly having abandoned them, he followed steadfastly at Shenyu’s side.

“Go on then.” Shenyu waved his hand.
“Turtle King, go with the Human King.
Kill Hua Fengwen and Jinse if you run into them.” [1]

“I hear and obey,” intoned an elder with a round face.
He was an eighth step king!

Turtle King’s name means “big turtle” and was used for divination in ancient China.
