This is a cultivation game, but the operation is bad

Chapter 217: The 10,000-meter Dragon Boat Crashes into the Event!

Chapter 217: The 10,000-meter Dragon Boat Crashes into the Event! (Paid 8x speed skip available!)
It's crazy.

This 12-hour advertisement really made Jiang Liu laugh.

It took me hundreds of Water Prison Talismans to hard-control the eight big shots in Zone 3 for a few minutes.

The moment I step out, I'm subjected to a free ad that's locked onto me for 12 hours!

Making money off players with one hand and transferring it to sponsors with the other, you're really something, game planner.

Jiang Liu cursed inwardly, his face dark as he stared at the advertisement in front of him.

next second.

An old dragon with a human body and a dragon head, wearing a dragon robe, appeared on the screen.

Haha, Long Haidong actually hired a sleazy old man to do the advertising. Doesn't he know that advertisements need to attract attention?
If you cast a dragon girl in a bikini as a live streamer to do commercials, I might watch for 12 hours straight.

But I'm sorry to the sleazy old man, I need to meditate and cultivate myself.

The old dragon on the screen appeared quite shy, scratching its horns and looking around nervously, its head slightly bowed like an introverted teenager on camera. It stammered, "Um, my name is Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea. Nice to meet you."

Oh, so it's the Dragon King himself who has come.

Sorry, sorry, all of what I said above was fake. You are not despicable, you are majestic, domineering, unparalleled and invincible.

"The purpose of this advertisement is for mortal cultivators—no, for mortal players."

"It's to promote our Dragon Clan's specially made dragon boat to players in the mortal realm's third and fourth districts."

As they were speaking, the background of the large screen suddenly changed, and a giant ship, several thousand meters long and hundreds of meters high, appeared on a vast sea.

The large ship was made of an unknown material, and was entirely sea blue. It had a gold dragon head engraved on the bow, and several long dragons were engraved on the hull, making it look extremely noble and domineering.

Jiang Liu, who had originally planned to meditate and cultivate, widened his eyes instantly upon seeing the ship and stared intently at it.

It's actually a product promotion?
It's a dragon boat again!

Holy crap, what a huge ship!

want to.

In the vast world, the Crimson Flame Divine Continent is not located by the sea, so there is no need for ship-type props.

However, this did not affect his desire to possess it.

A dragon boat thousands of meters long—it would be impressive even if it were just displayed as a building in a sect's headquarters!

If you want it, click the link now!

"This dragon boat was specially made by the East Sea Dragon Clan. The hull is made of demon bones and the interior is engraved with hundreds of immortal magic arrays. It can travel on the sea, in the air, and on land."

The Dragon King of the East Sea stammered as he introduced the dragon boat, and his short sentence captivated Jiang Liu.

It's actually an amphibious prop?!

Wow, this thing is way better than wings, isn't it?
Hurry up and stop the nonsense, here's the link!

"To ensure that players of all levels can have their own dragon boat, we have specially built five levels of dragon boats: Common, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Supreme, for players to choose from."

The Dragon King of the East Sea spoke more and more fluently, and five dragon boats of different sizes appeared in the background.

Common grade, 100 meters long, priced at 1 million spirit stones.

Silver grade, 500 meters long, priced at 5 million spirit stones.

Gold grade, 1000 meters long, priced at 10 million spirit stones.

Diamond Gold, 3000 meters long, priced at 30 million spirit stones.

The ultimate grade, 10,000 meters long, priced at 100 million spirit stones.

Jiang Liu: “.”

1 spirit stones per meter? Is your dragon boat made of dragon bones? How can it be so expensive?
They even said they'd ensure all types of players could afford it, but the cheapest one costs 100 million spirit stones. How many players can afford that?
This is the first time that transportation has been sold in the Immortal Cultivation Era, but just by looking at the price, you can tell that transportation in the Immortal Cultivation Era is not something that everyone can afford.

A standard dragon boat is like a bicycle, while a top-of-the-line dragon boat is like a Lamborghini.

It's normal for ordinary people to not be able to afford a Lamborghini, but it's a bit abnormal if they can't even afford a bicycle.

"At this price, I doubt many dragon boats will be sold."

Jiang Liu shook his head. Spending a lot of money to sponsor the event, only to sell a few items in the end, he was completely screwed over by the organizers.

however.

The Dragon King of the East Sea's next words made him understand a principle.

Never underestimate immortals.

"The price of the dragon boat might deter many players, but there's no need to worry."

The Dragon King of the East Sea paused, then suddenly held up a contract written in black and white, and continued, "We are willing to offer installment payments to all interested players, with a maximum installment period of 1000 years!"

"With just a tiny bit of interest, you can sail across the heavens and earth in a dragon boat during the cultivation era!"

"Pay in installments over 1000 years, only 1000 spirit stones per year, and you can bring back a luxurious dragon boat!"

What are you waiting for? Place your order now!

"Click to buy, instant shipping! Limited quantity! One seat per person! First come, first served!"

"Please note that this dragon boat can also be used in this event."

Jiang Liu: “.”

6. Speechless.

Paying in installments over 1000 years, even if you become an immortal, you still have to pay off a car loan, right?

After finishing this last paragraph, the Dragon King of the East Sea disappeared, and the entire sales pitch lasted no more than two minutes.

The next 11 hours and 58 minutes were entirely dedicated to dragon boat demonstration videos.

On the large screen, a demonstration video was playing while a "Click to Buy" button was displayed.

Can it also be used in this event?
Does that mean I can drive a 10,000-meter dragon boat and crush the three districts?

Jiang Liu's mind stirred. He hadn't hesitated much to begin with, so he clicked to buy directly.

The next second, a purchase window popped up in front of him.

Please select the dragon boat class.

[Standard Grade, Silver Grade, Gold Grade, Diamond Gold Grade, Prestige Grade] [Prestige Grade]

Please select the dragon boat color.

[Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, white, gold, silver (only available in the Prestige Dragon Boat)]

【gold】

Please select a payment method.

Installment payment (total interest rate of only 36%) / Full payment (9.8% discount)

A thousand-year interest rate of only 36%? That's really not high. You dragons aren't greedy enough.

But is there even a need to choose?

The Supreme Dragon Boat only costs 1 million spirit stones. With a 9.8% discount and another 0.1% discount, it's only 98 spirit stones in total. Why would you need to pay in installments for something so small?

[Full payment required]

Congratulations on purchasing the East Sea Dragon Boat (Premium Class). You have become a distinguished friend of the East Sea Dragon Clan.

"Another hundred-million-yuan expenditure!"

As Jiang Liu listened to the voice in his mind, he couldn't help but sigh. His bad mood, caused by being forced to watch the advertisement, instantly improved.

Consumption makes people happy.

The more he spends, the happier he is.

Although it cost 980,000 spirit stones, I gained a 10,000-meter dragon boat and even became a friend of the East Sea Dragon Clan. This was definitely a better deal than any other transaction.

We have good brothers even in the immortal realm!

Hmm, after I ascend to heaven, I'll visit the East Sea Dragon Clan and see if I can pull some strings to get a leisurely position in the Heavenly Court.

If you want to get in through the back door of Heaven, one good brother might not be enough.

Please, immortals, hurry up and start live-streaming e-commerce! I'll buy whatever you sell, with the main focus on making true friends.

"Let me see just how awesome this dragon boat worth 1 million spirit stones is."

Jiang Liu opened his backpack with great anticipation. This was his first means of transportation, and he couldn't help but feel incredibly excited.

He never imagined that his mode of transportation would skip bicycles, motorcycles, cars, and supercars, and directly become a dragon boat!
Inside the backpack, a dragon boat model was radiating a soft golden light; just by looking at the icon, it was infinitely more prestigious than the other items.

East China Sea Dragon Boat

[Grade: Ultimate]

[Effects: Sea control, air control, land control, automatic repair, indestructible, rapid speed, demonic aura, spiritual energy absorption, super strong defense, dragon breath, water control, sea control, weather control, spiritual energy driving]

[Attributes: 500% when sailing, 300% when flying, 200% when flying on land (fixed speed depends on the driver's speed)]

I watched it, but I didn't understand it very well.

The information panel of this Supreme Dragon Boat is similar to that of the Primordial Dragon Phoenix Beast, with a long row of effect skills that made him a little dizzy.

"Most of them are passive; there are only a few major ones."

Jiang Liu glanced at the row of effects and casually clicked on a few to check them out.

[Super Strong Defense: Activating the defensive array can withstand attacks that are no higher than the driver's realm by one major level, but requires continuous infusion of spiritual energy.]

[Dragon Breath: Activating the breath array allows the release of a breath attack that is one realm higher than the driver's. Each release consumes a large amount of spiritual energy.]

[Spiritual Energy Absorption: The spiritual energy concentration inside the dragon boat is 1000%, and the spiritual energy recovery speed increases by 300%]

Jiang Liu: “.”

Holy crap, 1000% spiritual energy concentration?!

I've bought a blessed land and a paradise!

"It can withstand attacks from a level higher than the user, and it can also unleash attacks from a level higher. How come this dragon boat feels even more powerful than me?"

Jiang Liu's lips twitched slightly. His strongest attack, with all his buffs fully stacked, barely reached the level of a Nascent Soul cultivator. But this dragon boat's casual strike was at the level of a Nascent Soul cultivator. Could it be that I'll stop using skills and start using the dragon boat to fight monsters from now on?

If the consumption isn't high, it really is possible.
"Let's try it out during the event later."

He murmured to himself, his earlier excitement quickly fading, replaced by a quiet silence.

He watched as the dragon boat demonstration video played on the big screen, but he couldn't concentrate on it at all.

Looking again at the slowly moving progress bar at the bottom, his face darkened again.

I've already bought the dragon boat and spent 1 million spirit stones, can you please let me out?

I want to participate in the event! I want to defeat the Siren! I want to take on the veteran players from server three!
Perhaps having heard Jiang Liu's cry, the planners made their move five minutes after the advertisement began.

A pop-up window appeared.

[Would you like to spend 1 spirit stones to unlock 2x speed viewing?]

Jiang Liu: “.”

Free ads, sponsored ads, and you can even pay to unlock 2x speed?
Is the planner really just trying to profit from both sides?

But I must say, it really resonates with me.

【Yes】

[You have unlocked 2x speed viewing. Would you like to spend 10 million spirit stones to unlock 4x speed viewing?]

Jiang Liu: Hehe, awesome, that's exactly what I wanted to hear.

【Yes】

[You have unlocked 4x speed viewing. Would you like to spend 100 million spirit stones to unlock 8x speed viewing?]

【Yes】

[You have unlocked 8x speed viewing. Would you like to spend 300 million spirit stones to skip this ad?]
