The ancient giant bear hiding in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 429 Factional Conflict
Level 4 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy is even more outrageous. The latest price is that one point of Level 4 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy requires 150 strands of Human Five Elements Qi. Human Five Elements Qi suddenly doesn't seem to be worth much here.

However, we must consider that Xu Taiping, a commoner Earth Immortal, only cultivated the Crimson Flame Spiritual Qi from his Fire Spirit Pill at a mere level 4. Does that make it seem like it's actually quite cheap?

Giving you a chance to purchase the power of a third-tier Earth Immortal is pretty fair, right?

Once the level 5 Crimson Flame Aura is reached, the price will naturally be astronomical.

A level 5 Crimson Flame Spiritual Aura is now priced at 2000 strands of Human Five Elements Qi.

Even so, there is a line of small print that reads: "Current remaining stock: 56059 dou!"
When Wang Wu saw this, he really felt like he was about to make a fortune and become incredibly rich.

But just think about it, the various overt costs he paid to repair the Fire Spirit Pill were at least 1 billion points of spiritual energy, and the covert costs were at least 2 billion points of spiritual energy.

His innate bloodline Five Spirit Pill, the time he spent on it, and the neglect he received from Elder Hui—aren't these the price he paid?
If it weren't for the fact that catching the Siberian Wren caused all sorts of effects, Gray Old Man wouldn't have come at all.

So when he saw that the price of level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Qi was 10,000 strands of Human Five Qi, he actually felt that it was still a bit cheap. Who are you insulting?
Hmph, thank goodness, the survival rate is 0!

Moreover, just thinking about how Xu Taiping had blasted his fire armor not long ago, Wang Wu's heart clenched. 320,000 points of level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy was equivalent to 32 billion points of ordinary spiritual energy.

Oh no, the economy is collapsing, I can't even count anymore.

P.E. teacher, help me!
Hahaha!
Wang Wu's mood suddenly improved.

Because he suddenly realized just how significant the dimensional advantage of level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy was.

His previous judgment had to be overturned.

Even if he stayed in the same place for a hundred years, Xu Taiping still wouldn't be able to beat him.

There's no other reason than that the advantage is too great!

So, is it possible to get rich using this method?
Previously, in the pig-butchering scam of the Thieves' Sect, he converted more than five million points of level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy in one go!

Furthermore, if he had a hundred million level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Qi, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wanted?

"That's actually impossible!"

"Your Fire Spirit Pill currently has a storage limit of only one million points. Theoretically, your Greatest Common Pill can only store a maximum of 1000 million points of Level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy. However, in reality, once you reach the peak of 600 million, you must inject other types of spiritual energy to neutralize and counteract it, otherwise it will completely change the nature of the Greatest Common Pill."

"Once the Greatest Convention Pill is no longer the Greatest Convention Pill, you can imagine millions of level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Qi rampaging through your body. At best, you will die; at worst, your soul will be annihilated!"

"Furthermore, I do not recommend that you sell level 6 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy. In fact, you should not even sell level 4 or 5 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy, because that is equivalent to your Fire Spirit Pill, which can no longer be hidden."

"The ecosystem of the Hidden Origin Society is dazzling, but behind it there must be immortals who are very proficient in this field, using super-powerful methods such as divination arrays to collect all information. As long as you dare to consume and buy, once you exceed a certain limit, you will be locked by big data and a corresponding target profile will be created. This is a method comparable to the supernatural power of precognition. There is no cost, but the effect is often extremely good."

-

A few messages floated by coldly; they were the four clowns making comments.

It was like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing Wang Wu's idea.

Yes, he just showed his fragile Five Spirit Pill to Gray Elder, Black Emperor, and Frost Lord, and now, in less than a hundred years, he's selling Level 4 Crimson Flame Spiritual Energy. Damn it, you still say it wasn't you? Confess now!

"Therefore, the best way to obtain spiritual energy safely and in large quantities right now is to exchange it for the five elements of the human world."

After much deliberation, Wang Wu eventually returned to the beginning.

The five elements of human life remain strong.

"Change!"

Wang Wu gritted his teeth; it was no big deal.

He is now a ninth-rank elder, but he can exchange items at a 40% discount. So, theoretically, 500,000 strands of human five elements can only buy about 50 million points of spiritual energy, but in reality, he should be able to buy about 125 million points of ordinary spiritual energy.

He's going into seclusion and needs this spiritual energy.

He kept 100 million, and returned the remaining 25 million to Snake Nineteen, so that it could comfort its brothers and sisters who had been deceived.

However, just as the transaction was completed and Wang Wu withdrew from the Hidden Origin Society's Puku, Bai Yu, the head of Dragon Head City whom he hadn't contacted for decades, suddenly sent him a message.

"Brother, you just exchanged 500,000 strands of human five elements in Puku? Please apply for a refund immediately. There's still time. I'll make up for any related penalties and losses."

Wang Wu was taken aback. What did this mean? Was there a problem?
However, he did not hesitate. A local official is more powerful than a distant one, and Bai Yu would not leave Dragon Head City for another thirty years. For both public and private reasons, he could not afford to offend him.

He quickly returned to Puku and applied to terminate the transaction, which was easy; the only penalty was a deduction of one million points of spiritual energy. After he left Puku, Bai Yu had already sent him a message inviting him to a meeting.

This is a mess.

After thinking it over and over again, he still couldn't find anything that could cause him to get angry, so he headed straight for Bai Yu's cave with a heart full of trepidation.

Here, Bai Yu was still acting like a drunkard, holding a jar of spirit wine in his hand, with another jar of spirit wine sitting next to him that was still unopened. But this time, Wang Wu really didn't dare to take advantage of him, mainly because this time he really had a secret and something to hold against him.

"What's the rush? I'm not going to eat you. Have you done something wrong lately?"

Bai Yu spoke coldly, pointed with his hand, and Wang Wu obediently sat down, holding the jar of spirit wine in his arms, waiting for what was to come.

"Have you run into some trouble lately? You squeezed and extorted so much from your men out of 500,000 strands of human energy. Doesn't your conscience give you a warning?"

Bai Yu seemed to know everything, and Wang Wu could only smile awkwardly, not daring to say anything.

"Let me tell you something. The Five Elements of the Human World are not as simple as you think. Do you know why the Hidden Origin Society sets the Five Elements of the Human World as the standard for transactions? It's because every wisp of the Five Elements of the Human World is traceable. What do you think the mortals in Dragon Head City are? They look ordinary, but in reality, they are the Hidden Origin Society's anti-counterfeiting standard."

"Only the five elements of mortal life generated by mortals protected by the Hidden Origin Bell are legitimate. Your 500,000 strands of mortal life energy must have been switched by someone, and now they are all illegal. The warning was triggered the instant after your transaction!"

"You're a fool too. You've been in the Hidden Origin Society for so many years, and you don't even know this basic common sense? Anything over 500,000 will trigger an alert, while anything under 100,000 can circulate. If I hadn't intercepted you on the way, you would have been sent to the Great Wilderness Prison Tower! This time, your master won't protect you!"

Hearing this, Wang Wu broke out in a cold sweat.

He was furious that such a thing could happen, calling those bastards from the Thieves' Guild "fucks"!

So they're using him as a money laundering tool!

He thought he had covered his tracks perfectly, but he never expected that the rules and regulations of the Hidden Origin Society were like a third eye, able to lock onto even such a thing in an instant.

He was so careless.

This time, Bai Yu really helped him a lot.

He hurriedly stood up, but Bai Yu pointed at him in the air and said, "If you dare call me godfather again, I'll report you immediately! I'll send you to the Great Wilderness Prison Tower for a stroll!"

"Sit down! No need to be grateful. Do you think I helped you for nothing? There's something I need you to handle. I was supposed to go, but I have no interest, no time, and no mood for it, understand?"

"Understood, sir! Please give your instructions, sir!"

Wang Wu solemnly accepted the order.

Bai Yu rolled his eyes, took another sip of spirit wine, and then said, "The Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance and the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance recently broke out into a war. Originally, this had nothing to do with our Dragon Head City, but do you remember that Song Guangming? My predecessor, the one you got rid of. Somehow, he incurred a huge debt to the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance while he was in office. Now that he's gone, this debt is real, incurred in the name of our Dragon Head City branch."

"This matter isn't a big deal, but it's not a small one either. If I go to my master and complain, I'll only get a couple of slaps, and that'll be the end of it. But I'm a Taiyi True Immortal, after all. How can you bear to see me get slapped?"

"No, absolutely not!" Wang Wu said through gritted teeth, his voice firm and resolute.

"So, I believe that the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance's evidence is fabricated, unreasonable, slanderous, and illegal. Do you understand what I mean?" Bai Yu said, shaking the wine jar in his hand.

Wang Wu instantly understood: he needed to do the dirty work!
Otherwise, Bai Yu wouldn't have been able to cover up his money laundering scheme.

Grass!

It's true, what goes around comes around!
There was no other choice.

He immediately clasped his hands in a fist salute, "Please rest assured, sir, I will infiltrate the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance right away, kill all those involved in this matter, and destroy all relevant evidence!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yu laughed heartily, tears streaming down his face. "You, you, you really are a little bear cub, so audacious! You think you can just destroy this kind of evidence like that? But I must say, I admire your ruthlessness. Actually, there's no need for this. Our Hidden Origin Society isn't like the Heavenly Demon Society or the Thieves' Guild, those filthy things. We are upright and honorable, we are magnanimous!"

"So actually, I want you to take your brothers and sisters to the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance as mercenaries for a few years to help the Vermilion Bird Immortal Alliance hold off the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance's attacks. It won't be too long, thirty years will be enough."

"Of course, I also think your method is very good. Anyway, that's how things are. You can choose either one!"

Bai Yu looked at Wang Wu with anticipation.

At this moment, Wang Wu only wanted to break his fifth limb!
Because he suddenly realized that Bai Yu didn't really want to establish the Jade Cauldron Immortal Alliance, but rather that he needed to lead his three thousand Hidden Origin Society deacons to leave and give up the pit.

Since he's going to be a mercenary, he certainly can't also be a steward of the Hidden Origin Society, otherwise what would become of the Hidden Origin Society?

Tell me, is this request reasonable or not?
