Chapter 681: Chapter 345: The Immortal Mountain Project

"The bronze-colored Token is Level One, which is also the lowest, Basic Level. It can store a maximum of 100 Spirit Stones and Spirit Crystals, and up to 1,000 Points. These Points will be useful later, so there’s no need to manage them now.

It also comes with a unit of portable storage space. However, it requires Spirit Stones to activate and has a monthly usage fee. Binding a Level One Token is free, but subsequent upgrades to higher Levels will cost Spirit Stones."

"The second level is the Black Iron Token. Upgrading to it costs ten Spirit Stones, and its capacity is double that of Level One;

Level Three is silver-colored... Of course, it’s not made of actual silver. All Tokens are made of the same material; only the color changes. The upgrade costs 20 Spirit Stones, and its capacity is triple that of Level One. These first three Levels don’t come with any extra privileges or benefits."

"The fourth level is the gold-colored Token. The upgrade costs forty Spirit Stones, its capacity is triple that of Level Three, and it comes with the benefit of a ten percent discount on Spirit Stone loan interest;

The fifth level is the platinum-gold-colored Token. The upgrade costs eighty Spirit Stones, its capacity is six times that of Level Three, and in addition to the Level Four benefits, it adds a ten percent discount on Elixirs;

The sixth level is the jade-colored Token. The upgrade costs one hundred and sixty Spirit Stones, and its capacity is nine times that of Level Three. You get a twenty percent discount on Elixirs, Spirit Stones, Spirit Crystals, and High Tier Cultivation Techniques. The ship ticket price remains the same, but you can apply for early teleportation, even if you’re the only passenger."

At this point, Cheng Zongyang paused, waiting for Zhang Chuchu to finish scribbling furiously before he continued:

"The seventh level is rose-gold-colored. The upgrade costs three hundred and twenty Spirit Stones, and its capacity is triple that of Level Six. On top of the Level Six benefits, it adds the right to purchase special Elixirs, such as various Elixirs for Realm Breakthroughs.

The eighth level is black-gold-colored. The upgrade requires six hundred and forty Spirit Stones, and its capacity is six times that of Level Six. In addition to the Level Seven benefits, it adds limb regeneration.

The ninth level is purple-gold-colored. The upgrade requires one thousand two hundred and eighty Spirit Stones. Its capacity is ten times that of Level Six. On top of the Level Eight benefits, it adds Dantian repair.

Once Cheng Zongyang had explained everything and Zhang Chuchu finished taking notes, Cheng Zongyang continued,

"The Ten Thousand Races Spirit Seal is a key focus for promotion right now, but promoting it is our job. Don’t force it on anyone. Just publicize the benefits of the Ten Thousand Races Spirit Seal. Those who need it will naturally choose to bind with one. This Spirit Seal..."

Cheng Zongyang went on to explain more about the benefits of the Spirit Seal, and Zhang Chuchu continued to write it all down.

Everyone listened, their eyes shining with excitement.

With this Ten Thousand Races Spirit Seal, transactions between people would become much more convenient, and it would also boost the Money Shop’s lending business.

The only downside was that when they deposited Spirit Stones into the Spirit Seal, the stones would be held in a special space, not within the Money Shop itself.

Although this would affect the Money Shop’s deposits, relatively speaking, it was all circulating within their system, so it didn’t count as a loss of business.

Additionally, the Money Shop paid interest on Spirit Stone and Spirit Crystal deposits. Although the interest was very low, compared to storing them in the Spirit Seal, some people might value that bit of interest income from their Spirit Crystals.

After giving further instructions about the Ten Thousand Races Spirit Seal, Cheng Zongyang took some questions from the crowd.

Among them, Zhou Zhendong asked about the matter of the thirty-seven families wanting to be teleported. They wanted to make a reservation, but Zhou Zhendong hadn’t directly agreed.

First, he didn’t know when Cheng Zongyang would be back or when the next trip was scheduled. Second, he had to wait for Cheng Zongyang’s return to make the final call, lest he accept payment and then be unable to provide the service on time, causing unnecessary problems.

Regarding this, Cheng Zongyang thought for a moment before saying:

"Tell them the next trip will be in three years. They can spend that time cultivating in the Immortal City, consuming Spiritual Items to refine their Primordial Qi, and preparing to break through to the Qi Cultivation Realm. Also, this time I need silver taels! From each family, ten million taels of silver, and a minimum of one hundred thousand taels of Gold, with no upper limit. If they don’t have enough Gold or silver, they can substitute with Martial Arts Materials. The total price per family remains unchanged at thirty million taels of silver."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhendong immediately agreed.

Just then, after Cheng Zongyang and the others finished their discussion, Li Lu spoke up, "Boss, a disciple in our group has discovered something. I thought it was a minor issue at first, but it has kept happening, and we don’t know the cause. No one else could figure it out, so I decided I should report it to you."

"What is it?" Cheng Zongyang asked, puzzled.

"Over the past half-month, many wild beasts from the mountains have been frequently jumping into the Soul-Loss Pit. And it almost always happens at night. The Soul-Loss Pit is a strange place, and I was worried people would start spreading rumors, so I ordered a wall and fence to be built, enclosing the entire area around it. Although this has prevented many creatures from committing suicide, they still show up every night and even try to ram the wall. We really can’t figure it out."

At this, Cheng Zongyang turned to Li Xuejin. "You don’t know about this?"

Cheng Zongyang knew full well what lay beneath the Soul-Loss Pit, also known as the Ghost Abyss.

’Huangfu Ren had told me before that the creature had jumped into the Ghost Abyss and vanished. Based on later developments, I guessed that the thing underground was the creature the first host received as a novice reward after obtaining the Jade Stone.’

’I even confirmed it later during an eighteen-minute conversation with the Ring Spirit—it was a canine Soul Beast!’

But whether Li Xuejin knew that part was uncertain. Cheng Zongyang knew, however, that Li Xuejin was aware that *something* was down there.

Li Xuejin cupped his fist and shook his head. "I am aware that this has been happening, but I truly do not know the specific reason. I hope you can get to the bottom of it, Boss."

After a moment of contemplation, Cheng Zongyang said to Li Lu, "Lock down the entire surrounding area. I’ll go take a look myself."

"Yes, my lord!" Li Lu replied, cupping his hands.

Just then, he turned to Zhou Zhendong and asked, "Has Xu Dong returned?"

’Before leaving for the Cultivation Immortality Realm, I had left Xu Dong with the task of collecting a large number of Soul Crystal Stones. I had already transferred Ma Yue to the Cultivation Immortality Realm, so the collection duty could only fall to Xu Dong.’
