Sage of Humanity-Chapter 1762 - 1760: Three Worlds Island Auction

Although after the three families, there were no more rent concessions, Tang Jun promised the cultivators present that within five days, everyone could choose their preferred location on Three Worlds Island. This filled the merchants who had made decisions with anticipation, and even many cultivators who came just to observe were influenced to decide to settle on Three Worlds Island.

News of this quickly spread, and coupled with the settlement of the Five Colors Merchants Guild and Cheling World, countless cultivators from all directions of the All Phenomena Ocean flocked towards Three Worlds Island.

Anyone with insight could see that the rise of Three Worlds Island was unstoppable. The mere settlement of the Five Colors Merchants Guild only improved Three Worlds Island's situation slightly but could not entirely change the dynamics. However, the entry of Cheling World had a decisive effect!

The reason why these merchants hesitated to settle on Three Worlds Island before was due to their fear of Yuan Du. But with Jiu Yan, the Sun Blaze behind Cheling World, what was there to fear from Yuan Du now that Three Worlds Island had formed an alliance with Cheling World?

The various benefits given to the first three merchants who chose to settle on Three Worlds Island were not a result of consultation with the Moon Jade members of Three Worlds Island, but a temporary decision made by Old Tang.

He clearly understood that although the merchants attracted to Three Worlds Island were numerous, they were small businesses with shallow foundations.

Small businesses are indispensable, but large businesses are also needed. Old Tang wanted to take this opportunity to build momentum for Three Worlds Island. As long as the island was lively enough, there was no fear of big businesses not coming.

It must be said, his decision was very wise. With the first batch of cultivators entering Three Worlds Island, in just half a day, more and more cultivators flocked in, making the commercial area incredibly lively.

At the ferry, He Baichuan personally took charge of the reception, and also assigned some local island cultivators to lead the incoming merchants to explore the details of settling on the island.

In such an atmosphere, those large businesses who received the news could no longer sit still.

They naturally perceived the vast future of Three Worlds Island. Previously they remained indifferent, giving face to Yuan Du. But now, with some actions from Three Worlds Island and the influx of numerous small businesses, Yuan Du's reputation had been trampled and torn apart.

These large businesses naturally could not restrain themselves any longer.

Three Worlds Island's best, largest piece of land had already been taken by the Five Colors Merchants Guild. To ensure their future interests on Three Worlds Island, they needed to enter early to select better plots.

Half a day later, the first large business finally arrived, followed by the second, third...

Again, it was Tang Jun who received and negotiated with them.

In the Council Hall, Old Tang specifically invited Chu Shen to accompany. Hearing is not the same as seeing; despite rumors that Cheling World's cultivator had entered Three Worlds Island, until it was seen with one's own eyes, the accuracy of this information remained to be verified.

So Chu Shen's presence was necessary; he didn't need to do anything but sit to the side.

Furthermore, when Chu Shen crafted Unparalleled Island back then, he had dealings with these influential figures, so he was not unfamiliar with many of them. A few casual words exchanged further confirmed for them Cheling World's stance, increasing their confidence in the future of Three Worlds Island. Nearly ninety percent of the representatives of large businesses immediately decided to settle on Three Worlds Island.

In a short period, the previously neglected Three Worlds Island became a coveted place in the entire All Phenomena Ocean, drawing the attention of countless cultivators.

Several days later, large numbers of businesses moved in on the island, each refurbishing their shops and preparing their goods.

Three Worlds Island also announced to the public that in ten days, the island would be fully open. Cultivators could enter the island to trade goods, and on that day, the Five Colors Merchants Guild would hold a grand auction, inviting cultivators from all sides to attend.

Looking across the All Phenomena Ocean, the most renowned guild without a doubt was the All Phenomena Merchants Guild, nurtured by local powers, unparalleled by any outsider.

However, the reputation of the Five Colors Merchants Guild was not bad either. News of the branch on Three Worlds Island holding an auction naturally attracted a lot of attention from cultivators.

To prepare for this auction, the Five Colors Merchants Guild mobilized many rare items and compiled them into a jade booklet, distributing it everywhere to create buzz ahead of time.

Giant Blade Island.

The atmosphere on Giant Blade Island hadn't been good lately; three months ago, Three Worlds Island was at Giant Blade's doorstep. Although no conflicts happened, to drive back Three Worlds Island under their threat, Giant Blade Island paid a huge price.

Not only did they not gain any spoils, but they also ended up targeting themselves as a joke throughout the All Phenomena Ocean.

During that encounter, Giant Blade had been extorted by Three Worlds Island for twenty million spirit jades worth of resources, nearly exhausting their reserves. In this period, Giant Blade cultivators were tightening their belts to make ends meet, having almost no spirit jades available for their cultivation.

Although they had sent someone back to the home galaxy to seek material support, this round trip would take at least half a year.

This means that it would take another three months for the situation at Giant Blade to improve.

And as the First Island Master of Giant Blade Island, Zhao Yunqi had been in a state of self-reproach and regret over the past three months, blaming himself for being swayed by Yu Huan and leading people to Three Worlds Island, causing such enormous losses.

Furious at Yu Huan's incompetence, how could such a large Baiyue Island be taken down by Three Worlds Island so easily? If Baiyue hadn't been so fragile, Giant Blade Island wouldn't have been caught in the crossfire.

"Senior Brother!" Someone entered, and the worried Zhao Yunqi looked up to find it was Mo Hong.

Although they were not from the same domain, both hailed from the Giant Blade Galaxy and had been stationed in the All Phenomena Ocean for over a hundred years, so their relationship was quite good.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Yunqi casually asked.

Mo Hong handed over a jade booklet, "The Five Colors Merchants Guild is holding an auction. This is the auction jade booklet they sent over. There are some interesting things inside."

Zhao Yunqi weakly took it, "There are many interesting things in this world... but right now, where do we have the money to participate in any auction?"

Opening the jade booklet, he glanced through it carelessly, indeed finding some items that piqued his interest, but recalling his current financial constraints made him give up the idea of joining in on the fun.

Seeing good things but being unable to buy them, it's better not to see them at all.

Until after flipping through it for a while, Zhao Yunqi suddenly brightened and exclaimed, "Supreme-grade psyche refinement pill... twenty bottles?"

He made an effort to open his eyes wide to make sure he wasn't mistaken, then uncertainly looked up at Mo Hong, who nodded his head, indicating it was indeed twenty bottles!

"How is this possible?" Zhao Yunqi was flabbergasted.

It's known that supreme-grade elixir pills bear no burden for cultivators, have virtually no pill poison, and are extremely effective. Generally speaking, regardless of the type of elixir pill, once supreme-grade, they are hard to find.

Even the most skilled Pill Master cannot deliberately create supreme-grade elixir pills; they only appear coincidentally when luck strikes during a batch.

Thus, these supreme-grade elixir pills are usually kept by Pill Masters to be sold only when gathered in enough quantity.

It's like the All Phenomena Merchants Guild, which has auctioned supreme-grade psyche refinement pills before, but never more than five bottles, usually only three, and sometimes just one…

A full twenty bottles of supreme-grade psyche refinement pills, what kind of concept is this? Zhao Yunqi felt that if he could acquire all twenty bottles, there was hope to glimpse the secret of the Sun Blaze!

After all, at his level of cultivation, breaking through is all about psyche refinement, but unfortunately, he has made no progress over the years due to his own abilities.

He had taken similar elixir pills that enhance Divine Soul Power, but those had pill poison; the more he consumed, the murkier his psyche became, moving further away from the Sun Blaze.

So upon seeing that this auction had twenty bottles of supreme-grade psyche refinement pills, Zhao Yunqi's stagnant heart couldn't help but become active.

After a brief contemplation, he looked up at Mo Hong, "Junior Brother, I remember fifty years ago, did you not get a batch of Heavenly Heart Sand?"

That item holds great value, and Mo Hong has always wanted someone to help him craft it into a magic treasure, but unfortunately, the supplementary materials could not be gathered.

Mo Hong immediately became vigilant, "Senior Brother, what do you intend to do?"

Zhao Yunqi smiled, "Junior Brother, we have known each other for many years, sharing hardships. Thirty years ago, when you were seriously injured, it was I who took care of you day and night..."

Mo Hong's face fell instantly; had he known it would come to this, he wouldn't have brought the jade booklet along!

The Five Colors Merchants Guild has placed great importance on this auction—not only to build momentum for the Three Worlds Island but also to promote the sub-chapter of the Three Worlds Island. Thus, they sent out invitations and auction jade booklets to almost every known Spirit Island.

For this auction, the Five Colors Merchants Guild has indeed summoned quite a number of rare items, but what truly captivates the cultivators are those twenty bottles of supreme-grade psyche refinement pills!

Which Moon Jade Late Stage cultivator doesn't need this stuff?

On a mid-class Spirit Island, which family doesn't have a Moon Jade Late Stage cultivator?

Generally, such things are rarely sold because their own cultivators need them, let alone in such substantial quantity at one time.

Hence, for many qualified Moon Jade Late Stage cultivators, these aren't just twenty bottles of supreme-grade psyche refinement pills—they represent an opportunity to reach the pinnacle of Sun Blaze.

No one is willing to miss out!

Once the Five Colors Merchants Guild distributed the jade booklets, the entire All Phenomena Ocean was in an uproar. Countless eyes turned toward Three Worlds Island, just waiting for the day the auction would commence.

Meanwhile, in a bamboo building within the local island cultivator's guard area on Three Worlds Island, both the true self and doppelganger of Lu Ye busily started crafting As-Close-As-Siblings Array Discs, expressionless.

Now that he is at Moon Jade cultivation level, it's quite easy for him to craft these things. With abundant materials, he repeated the process over and over, forming array discs one by one.

Although the situation on Three Worlds Island has completely opened up, in the future, simply maintaining it would ensure income; however, both Old Tang and Luan Xiao'e felt that Three Worlds Island should have its own business rather than merely relying on shop rental income.

Therefore, after a Moon Jade Council, Three Worlds Island decided to open two shops of its own.
