1.1 billion.
Even at a success rate of a few hundred to one, I'm afraid hundreds of billions of people have activated the Teleportation Array to go to Xin City to worship the statue.
What an exaggerated traffic!
You can only say, whenever a great Tribulation descends, there's a group of people who frantically kneel and pray for the God's salvation.
People are fighting life and death in the East Sea.
Over here in Xin City, they are deceiving the Human Race everywhere.
"We're being a bit lacking in morals."
Ning Zheng felt that this battle was indeed a double victory for him, winning twice.
Over here in Xin City, they are tricking for Qi Fortune Values.
Over in the East Sea, they ambushed Xian and took his place.
Digesting these two enormous fortunes, they're bound to take off smoothly!
Soon.
Ning Zheng considered what to do with this massive sum of 1.1 billion, so much money that it seed there was no place to spend it?
He thought for a mont.
[One Heart and Two Apertures Realm: 5 million Qi Fortune Values.]
Start by upgrading a Realm.
There shouldn't be any big problem with this.
But after a mont's thought, Ning Zheng found an even bigger issue,
"I don't have cultivation resources, just having Qi Fortune Values can't be used to advance to the next Realm."
The manor's savings had been basically used up when Ning Zheng broke through to the One Heart Realm.
Then, in order to ambush the Dragon Race's tomb, he squeezed the last reserves to gather a dozen Heavenly Spirit Roots, preparing to possess an old ancestor in the Dragon Palace...
Later, unexpectedly, a dozen Heavenly Spirit Roots failed in possession, completely losing the capital.
Though, this battle lost a batch of Heavenly Spirit Roots, the gains of Xian and 1.1 billion Qi Fortune Values were absolutely worth it.
But in essence, he still had no money!
"Expenses have been too high lately... I need to think of a way to make money, otherwise, I can't even spend the 5 million Qi Fortune Values for a Realm upgrade."
"A faction can't just have outflows without inflows, we need to rebuild, make money..."
Ning Zheng didn't use Qi Fortune Values to exchange for a batch of resource wealth.
Qi Fortune Values are too precious.
How can they be used to earn worldly Magic Coins?
It's not like he doesn't have ways of making money; let the blacksmith go out and forge so iron, and money will co.
After roughly organizing the future developnt strategy, to check for omissions and make corrections, Ning Zheng opened the ga forum.
Seven in the evening, it's the downti.
Countless people log off to eat while frantically browsing and posting, and in just half an hour, a large number of new posts erge and get pinned, clearly, this major plot is gripping their hearts.
"New plot, aweso, so aweso!"
"All-around perspective ahhh!"
"Watched a whole day of super large mythic warfare today!"
"So cool."
"Usually you'd hardly see a One Heart Realm or Self-Transformation Realm in a lifeti, here they're as common as dirt."
...
They're all talking about these sorts of lines.
Various video recordings, screenshots, have almost taken over the entire forum, everyone is showing off their own perspectives.
Everyone discusses eagerly, Ning Zheng can even imagine these foreign players, with flushed faces in front of the forum screen, madly analyzing the details in the videos.
They even analyzed every NPC's clothing, style, boots, accessories, finding details everywhere, because they believe the planner is a detail freak.
This is getting a bit absurd.
Ning Zheng didn't pay them much mind and clicked into a post.
"Food God: The Losses and Gains of the Dragon Palace Possession Battle"
"Hello everyone, I'm the Food God, the number one chef in Nine-State, the super boss who made the rebel Elders so delighted their pants exploded, heard that those Heavenly Spirit Roots Ghost Dragons who tried to possess the Dragon Race, went off and died right away, imnsely unprofitable."
"However, it seems Xian was successfully possessed? Not quite sure! We'll ask the old manager next ti he cos to the manor."
...
Ning Zheng took a glance, everyone was discussing Xian's possession and the failure event of the Dragon Palace's possession.
It was basically lacking in substance.
But there was one piece of information they revealed that was worth Ning Zheng's attention.
Food God: "Hahaha! The Bone Demon Sect has fled, hahahaha! Those Giant Shell Elders who wanted to fight the Dragon Race, have finally realized the gap between themselves and the Dragon Race!!"
"They think that countless Holy Lands across the Nine-State and Four Seas, together, can fight the Dragon Race, with quantity overcoming quality. It's laughable. Even within the sa Realm, there's a gap. A single Nine-headed Dragon Emperor in the sa Realm could solo all their Holy Lands!"
"Now that they're seeing the true foundation, they're scared shitless."
"However, even if they run away, I doubt the Dragon Race will pursue them, considering the disaster looming over them is quite overwhelming."
"Furthermore, since I, the Food God, have beco a Royal Chef, I expect many big shots to visit my Bone Demon Sect for a al. I'm considering starting a high-end restaurant. Any blacksmiths want to help out?"
"I've already thought of the signature dish for my Bone Demon Restaurant: braised ribs! Broth from big bones! Any Bone Demon friends interested in joining our big kitchen and cooking together?"
...
Not ntioning it, even Ning Zheng almost forgot about it.
The Bone King ascending the throne.
On the surface, he's also an Emperor of the Sea Race.
As for the Giant Shell Elder and the others, whether they chicken out next or continue stirring trouble, we'll have to wait and see.
To be fair, Ning Zheng wants to establish a Dynasty for the Sea Race.
Because he's really short on money.
Over at Xin tropolis, they're still trying to catch Xi Rong as a live-in son-in-law, so it's not easy to show his face...
Over on Xian's side, they're still studying control, and they're also short of money, requiring constant investnt in Spiritual Root resources to enhance Xian's mind and increase control. "Xian" is also a bottomless pit of resources.
Only the Bone Demon Sect remains the most suitable channel for making money and gathering resources.
Xin Xichen is the Human Race Emperor. If he becos the Sea Race Emperor on this side, the benefits would be unimaginable if successful.
"At the end of the day, it's all about the lack of money."
"As long as I have money, my Realm will break through rapidly. With money, I can further control Xian's mind, making him one of my avatars completely!"
"Let's see how the blacksmiths view the future of the Bone Demon Sect..."
He thought for a mont, exited the post, wandered around a few popular threads, and smiled with a hint of amusent,
"There are indeed analysis posts!"
He clicked on a post.
[Yan Shuangying: Speculation on my Bone Demon Country's rise as the National Guardian General!]
Yan Shuangying: "It seems like those rebellious Sea Race factions in this battle are like little sea critters raving on the dance floor, unaware of their impending doom... In reality, they've hit the jackpot!"
"Do you think they're stupid? I don't think they're stupid."
"On the surface, they're attracting the attention of the Dragon Race, while secretly colluding with Xin Xichen, leading this Emperor to dig up the Dragon Race's ancestral graves, a perfect result!"
"After all, the Dragon Race's ancestral graves have exploded, and the Dragon Palace is destroyed too."
"Besides the nine Dragon Emperors, the slightly weaker Two Phases and One Heart have had 80% of their ancestral graves chopped by the Manor Master and then uprooted by the Shadow Devouring Dragon Emperor, leaving them extrely weakened and needing ti to recover."
"This group forms the backbone of the Two Phases and One Heart of the Dragon Race!"
"So, currently, they're left with nine bare commanders. How can the Dragon Race quell the rebels?"
"In this world, individual power is important, but so is having subordinates. Without intelligence, influence, or people to help you manage industries, mineral veins..."
"The most important thing is, the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor can't act rashly now!"
"He's currently a Pseudo-Ghost King, with conditions to trigger madness. If he shows up casually, information about him will be eagerly collected by a crowd, and if soone finds the conditions that trigger his madness, it's a big problem!"
"Take Xin Xichen, for example, back in the day when he was still a Ghost, soone triggered his killing condition, and he went berserk right in the Capital City. How terrifying was that??"
"Even soone as unscrupulous as Xin Xichen couldn't escape the madness pattern of a Ghost!"
"Therefore, the Dragon Race is certainly protecting the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor, the Pseudo-Ghost King, from prying eyes, making sure nobody discovers the flaw in his Embers."
"The conclusion is, the Dragon Race can't bother with us now, eight Dragon Emperors, ensuring the safety of the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor... They will give up large tracts of land, and we are likely to beco the apparent Sea Race Emperors."
Ning Zheng raised an eyebrow.
This analysis is quite interesting.
If it cos true... then it wouldn't just be a double celebration, but a triple celebration.
Xin 110 million, Possessing Xian, Bone King ascending the throne...
I have a place in this East Sea.
"Scholars are truly deviously smart, Xin Xichen, you've pulled a fast one... screwing the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor, human nature is the most terrifying, turning the living into ghosts," Ning Zheng mused.
The Dragon Race is thus left tied up in knots!
The best course for the Dragon Race now is to hide away, rest, and recuperate for a few years, protecting the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor... helping him fully awaken as a true Ghost King.
Then reenact a scene of 'three years have passed, the Dragon King returns.'
After all, this is an era of personal valor. As long as they have the strongest military force, they can reclaim their kingdom at any ti... So what if they let that group of rebels manage it for now??
"A few years to restore ancestral graves, revive the Nine-headed Dragon Emperor—it's a short ti given their long lives, but for ... a few years as the Sea Race Emperor is enough for to develop!"
"Enough for my blacksmiths to completely transform the East Sea!"
Ning Zheng relished in his thoughts, "Sea Race infrastructure, activate!"
Wait for their Dragon King to return?
They will witness a rather interesting scene.
