Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?!-Chapter 934 - 820: Getting Something for Nothing

Since ancient times, there has been a way to become a god through worship, and Du Li, an old demon cultivator with deep experience, naturally understands this well.

However, to become a god through worship, not only does it require extremely high requirements on the cultivator themselves, but also the devotion of the believers and the incense used; all of which have high standards, so he didn't choose the route of incense offerings.

Even so, it doesn't prevent him from enjoying a few good sticks of incense every now and then.

Moreover, receiving incense can accumulate some blessings, which makes Thunder Tribulation Crossing smoother, so every cultivator has some understanding of incense offerings.

Before he personally tasted it, he glanced at it and knew that this incense was indeed of the highest quality. So far, not a single old demon in the Demon Realm Alliance has enjoyed such incense.

"Hiss!" Du Li took it, sniffed it with squinting eyes, and praised, "It's indeed excellent incense! What kind of deal did you make with him? Aren't you coming to gather good things from me again?"

Qu Luming felt proud seeing that it had truly subdued the entity, and snorted, "I would like to gather from you, that would save trouble. Unfortunately, do you have a protective array equivalent to the Eighteen Layers of Hell?"

"An array used by the Netherworld? What does Mr. Jiang, a Tier One Human Cultivator, need that for?"

"Why do you care? He's rich and bought some land in the Netherworld. Recently, Fengdu City's commotion has been quite big, with fugitives and forced conscription of ghost cultivators; he finds it noisy and annoying." Although he said so, he remembered helping Mr. Jiang find a beautiful ghost and thought he might be arranging a residence for her.

Tsk tsk, look at how people treat their friends, not looking down even with a lower realm.

First, he replenished the soul of the White Snake Demon; then he found a safe place for the ghost Tang Qin to live — truly admirable!

The current strategy can only be to foster frequent interactions and communication, and when the relationship deepens, addressing the matter of breaking free from the constraints of the entity can be put on the agenda.

Thinking of this, Qu Luming couldn't hide his smile.

Seeing this, Du Li's eye twitched, "Look how sly you are with your smile, isn't that one stick of incense insufficient for the benefits you gain?"

"Oh dear, this top-quality incense, how much can Mr. Jiang make? How many sticks can he give me?" He retorted with cunning, feeling even more proud inside. Hehe, I still have eighty-nine sticks!

Slurp! Quickly deal with business and go back to enjoy!

"Anyway, I'll first circle around the Golden Chicken Seal, then return to Fengdu to handle business, and I'll talk to you through the Communication Stone later. Also, prepare some heavenly materials and earthly treasures as a token for transmitting information; and when I introduce you, you can order top-grade incense from Mr. Jiang." Given his instruction, Qu Luming came and left in a hurry. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Seeing him disappear like a whirlwind, Du Li couldn't help but sigh while looking at the incense stick: "No wonder it's said humans are the most intelligent beings; look at the work they do, even gifted demon cultivators can only look on in envy."

"There's a price for it." A sharp and sarcastic voice sounded from the void, "How much lifespan do humans really have to squander? Their bodies are weak and without care, they die easily. Without some talent, how can human cultivators stand equal with demon cultivators?"

He didn't respond, and the voice paused before asking, "How is the search for an alchemist going? We need to be ready for a hard battle if the Demon King makes a move; basic elixirs are essential.

And those fools who got roped into dealing with human cultivators, should we clear out a batch of them?

You need to make quick decisions, the Alliance Leader is in seclusion, and the Demon King will surely target you, then all the tedious matters will fall on you to handle; preparing early saves you from scrambling.

The Human World also needs appropriate maintenance; needless to say, if the Demon Realm invades, at least those young cultivators can serve as scouts.

Besides, he said Mr. Jiang is a Tier One Human Cultivator, naturally intimate with his kind; a simple gesture from you can make him grateful, isn't that good?"

"Luming mentioned that Mr. Jiang also makes elixirs, I was thinking of talking to him when we meet."

"Oh my! Making elixirs, brewing, practicing Paperman and Paper Horse Skill, and incense making; his talents are absurdly strong. Consider recruiting him under your wing? Getting a helper like that would be like adding wings to a tiger."

"Dreaming of beautiful things!" Du Li couldn't help rolling his eyes, feeling slightly annoyed by the chatter, and sneered, "Do you remember Xuanyuan Yangguang? Human lifespans are too short, their high talents lead to boundless arrogance and conceit, how could they willingly stay below others?

Moreover, this Mr. Jiang is just emerging in the Wilderness World; he's still young and tender, given time he'll surely be all-powerful, you still want to get above him? Truly not afraid of cutting your lifespan short!"

"Hmm, that's true." The voice, finally less sharp and sarcastic, lowered in tone, "If you can't suppress his Life Chart, you'll suffer backlash; cooperation is better.

If all else fails, offer him an Honored Guest Elder position in the Demon Realm Alliance.

Speaking of which, it's more prestigious than your Vice Alliance Hierarch, although there's no real power or salary, just a convenient title for actions. If needed, you can grab some resources, and could still owe you a favor..."

.........

While Du Li was annoyed to headaches by the chatter, Qu Luming was also having a headache.

He returned, but this time he didn't enter the Golden Chicken River Market, instead went straight to the Golden Chicken Seal.

The true Golden Chicken Seal is somewhat special, only connecting with the upper layer during the summer flood season. For convenience in monitoring the seal's status, the Demon Realm Alliance specifically marked the location; knowing the exact landmark allows direct arrival at the sealing place using a Teleportation Talisman.
