1030: Chapter 274 Preparing for Battle 1030: Chapter 274 Preparing for Battle The business at Tai Xu Corner Tower had exploded.
All the seats, including those few most expensive private rooms, were completely filled, with not a single vacancy.
And that wasn’t everything.
Zhongxuan Sheng had specially introduced a reservation system, with prepaynts and advanced bookings.
The list of cultivators scheduled for appointnts was already filled up for a month ahead!
It wasn’t just cultivators from Near Sea County coming; even from Qing Tou County, cultivators were hurrying over.
Even Fan Qingqing had taken the trouble to write a letter, inquiring Jiang Wang about the affairs of Tai Xu Corner Tower.
Of course, her letter also deliberately ntioned Dugu Xiao’s cultivation, suggesting that perhaps such a treasure land might assist in her improvent.
After arriving at Qingyang Town, she also took on the responsibility of guiding Dugu Xiao in his cultivation.
With her Inner Mansion Realm cultivation, coupled with her previous experience as an elder at the Five Immortal Sect, she was more than adequate for the task.
Jiang Wang had always known that Fan Qingqing was not a simple person.
Take one thing, for example.
When she first left Near Sea and ca to Linhai County, she had no objections to what Jiang Wang said about their pursuers not daring to co to Qi Country for at least five years.
This was enough to show that she indeed knew the identities of Yin Guan and the others.
Yet she never ntioned it, only saying she did not know who they were.
But this didn’t an she was unreliable.
With Jiang Wang’s current status and position, he could offer her protection, and the research on the Sound Transmission Immortal Canon could provide her with the opportunity for future breakthroughs.
As long as he maintained his own rapid pace of advancent, such a clear-headed person was less likely to make foolish mistakes.
Jiang Wang imdiately replied with a promise.
Once Zheng Sheng Hall was completed, she could find ti to co to Heavenly Mansion City and give it a try.
No matter how busy the business at Tai Xu Corner Tower was, as its owner, he could always spare a few seats.
The bustling crowd brought by Tai Xu Corner Tower made Lv Zongxiao’s smile even more radiant.
The gambling business that Zhongxuan Pang had firmly grasped was also raking in huge profits.
Judging by the overwhelming popularity of the newly built annex of the Sanfen Xiangqi Tower, the end-of-the-month’s commission was yet another significant sum.
The profits from these two businesses were all accounted for in the na of De Sheng Trading Company.
Indeed, the current De Sheng Trading Company, using Qingyang Town in Yang Region as a hub, had taken control of a border county trading route, and business was already flourishing.
Plus, with the completion of Tai Xu Corner Tower in Heavenly Mansion City and the relationship established with Heavenly Mansion City Lord Lv Zongxiao, conducting business at sea in the future would not be too difficult.
Zhongxuan Sheng himself also kept the business of De Sheng Trading Company and the Zhong Xuan Family separate, maintaining strict boundaries and never crossing the line.
After all, regardless of how you look at it, his relationship with Jiang Wang was a good one.
But once it got entangled with the interests of the Zhong Xuan Family, it would beco complicated.
This year, among the most thriving business associations in Qi Country, De Sheng Trading Company’s na was definitely on the list.
Of course, this was only in comparison among up-and-coming business associations and was nowhere near ready to be compared with leading business alliances like the Four Seas Business Alliance.
The reason why De Sheng Trading Company couldn’t dominate among the erging business associations was due to another business alliance ford by a combination of nurous small trading companies—
The Hechang Business Alliance.
This alliance was short-lived, practically growing from the carcass of the collapsed Jubao Business Association.
Many of its mber trading companies were previously creditors to Jubao Business Association, having a large amount of debt circulating within it.
When Jubao Business Association collapsed, many deals were directly taken to cover debts.
Among the feast during the collapse of Jubao Business Association, the three that ate the most were the Four Seas Business Alliance, the family business of the Zhong Xuan Family, and of course, the Hechang Business Alliance.
Zhongxuan Sheng had firmly tied the family elders to him by leveraging these benefits.
The third was this Hechang Business Alliance.
The small trading companies that ford the Hechang Business Alliance amounted to fifteen, with the alliance hierarch being a mysterious person surnad Qi, who was almost never seen publicly and was revered as “Mr.
Qi” within the alliance.
Of course, these matters were rarely a concern of Jiang Wang’s.
The aning of “the competent are busy” was… to leave all these things to Zhongxuan Sheng.
As for Jiang Wang himself, of course, he was diligently continuing his cultivation, actively preparing for the Yellow River Gathering.
Still, he locked himself in his room, quietly sought the Dao on his own, and imrsed his mind into the Taixu Illusion Realm.
Whether it was an illusion or not, after the establishnt of Tai Xu Corner Tower, entering the Taixu Illusion Realm seed a bit more natural.
That lofty voice rang in his ears once again.
Jiang Wang’s previous musings about it had been baseless and without reason, but now he had a few ideas.
Was it the mysterious True Monarch Xu Yuanzhi?
The one who divided thoughts among the multitude, corresponding to each cultivator in the Taixu Illusion Realm?
Or was it a manifestation of so Dao Principles?
The voice did not care about Jiang Wang’s feelings, continuing according to established rules.
“The Tai Xu Corner Tower has been established.”
“You have received the honorary title: Tai Xu Envoy.”
A sense of enlightennt arose in Jiang Wang’s heart.
With the establishnt of the Tai Xu Corner Tower, his identity now connected the Taixu Illusion Realm with the real world.
Only at this mont did he truly beco the “Tai Xu Envoy.”
In the blessed land, above the sundial’s shadow, besides the titles “Tai Xu First Teng Long” and “Tai Xu Six Harmonies Cultivator,” there was now another: “Tai Xu Envoy.”
Then ca—
rits: Five thousand three hundred
Dharma: Twenty-three thousand four hundred
Skimming over the rits and dharma, his gaze focused on the four characters “Tai Xu Envoy,” and he naturally received a piece of information—You are the creator and owner of the Tai Xu Corner Tower, representing the Taixu Illusion Realm in the world, and therefore possess corresponding rights and responsibilities.
You gain an additional grade effect on the Daoist Platform, and you acquire the right to foresee changes in the Taixu Illusion Realm.
Other rights and responsibilities will be disclosed later.
Imrsing his mind in the phrase “the right to foresee changes in the Taixu Illusion Realm” brought new information—after the complete establishnt of the new cycle of Tai Xu Corner Towers, the Hongng Space would open.
The Hongng Space that Zhongxuan Sheng had ntioned a long ti ago!
This Hongng Space must have been a concept ford early in the Taixu Illusion Realm, probably always unavailable due to the lack of consensus among the major forces.
This could also explain that the Taixu Illusion Realm was indeed always under the supervision of top-tier forces, unable to attain complete autonomy and freedom.
In a sense, this was also the premise for the stability and safety of the Taixu Illusion Realm.
Until now, with the establishnt of this cycle of Tai Xu Corner Towers, the Hongng Space would truly open.
Jiang Wang felt an anticipation, wondering what it would be like.
In the introduction of the honorary title “Tai Xu Envoy,” Jiang Wang also caught another piece of information—while enjoying certain rights, the Tai Xu Envoy also had to assu so responsibilities.
Although it has yet to specify what he needs to do, it undoubtedly indicated that there would be a closer connection between the Tai Xu Envoy and the Taixu Illusion Realm.
Whether it was good or bad, under monitoring from all sides, this balance of rights and responsibilities should at least not be too lopsided…
The Taixu Illusion Realm is such a vast world that Jiang Wang, at his current level, could not yet interfere.
However, he still had the right to choose, and he could only wait for the opportunity to make a choice.
Returning to his own cultivation, Jiang Wang was always engaged in continuous self-reflection, aware that he was far from reaching the limit of the Inner Mansion Realm.
Not to ntion that there were still two Inner Mansions left to be opened, even at the level of the third Inner Mansion, the Instantaneous Dao Arts imprint had yet to be engraved.
If he were to imprint the third Inner Mansion, Dao Arts of the highest grade from the Outer Building would naturally be the first choice.
But unless one possessed an innate genius, a profound resonance, or self-created arts with innate advantages, the Dao Arts imprinted by a Neifu Cultivator would be constrained to the dium or lower grades of the highest category.
Jiang Wang would not consider imprinting Dao Arts below the dium grade of the highest category.
And for the fine Dao Arts of dium or higher grades within the highest category, the Zhong Xuan Family certainly would not lack them, but even for soone with the status of Zhongxuan Sheng, it would not be easy to access them.
After knowing so information about the Taixu Illusion Realm, Jiang Wang beca much less wary of it.
Using the Daoist Platform to deduce Dao Arts was one choice.
But not now.
With a slight stir of thought, Jiang Wang had already stepped onto the Daoist Platform, soaring through the Star River.
He was currently ranked tenth in the Neifu level of the Taixu Illusion Realm.
If he was not mistaken, after obtaining the title of Tai Xu Five Elents Cultivator, during the duration of the title, the Daoist Platform should be able to increase by one more grade effect.
And after obtaining the title of Tai Xu First Inner Mansion, the Daoist Platform would be able to permanently raise by one more grade.
So, after obtaining the title of Tai Xu First Inner Mansion, Jiang Wang’s current essentially three-tier Daoist Platform would be able to exert the effect of a seven-tier Daoist Platform!
