243: The bustling Sky City

"Grand Elder, what brings you here?"

Seeing Li Big Saber approach, Huyan Zhuo quickly clasped his fists in greeting.

Danyangzi, seeing this, also walked over, clasped his fists, and said, "Grand Elder!"

"Mm, no need for such formalities, Elders."

Li Big Saber nodded and said, flying two Storage Rings to them. "I'm here to deliver resources to the two Elders. If you encounter any difficulties in artifact refining, you must inform me immediately."

"Our Sect's third recruitment is imminent; we can't make any jokes in this regard, can we?"

Li Big Saber glanced at the two, wanting to see if they had anything to say.

Hearing Li Big Saber's words,

Danyangzi and Huyan Zhuo exchanged glances, then looked at Li Big Saber and smiled.

"Grand Elder, rest assured. I refine countless low-grade Medicinal Pills every day; I can fully supply the Sect."

"Grand Elder, you can also rest assured about me. I am intensifying the artifact refining of these armaments, and I've also had all the Artifact Refiners from the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce rush production. We will definitely meet the Sect's needs."

"Good, with these words from the two Elders, I am relieved."

"Then, Elders, continue refining. I'll take my leave."

Li Big Saber showed a satisfied expression and walked out of the Time Pagoda, preparing to inspect the Sect.

"Farewell, Grand Elder."

Danyangzi and Huyan Zhuo clasped their fists towards Li Big Saber's retreating figure, then returned to their respective posts.

As Li Big Saber inspected,

all areas within the Qingtian Sect were ready, awaiting a large number of Disciples to join the Sect at any time.

Time passed day by day, and three days flew by in a flash.

A large number of Central Province Cultivators arrived at the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce's branch in You Province, Southern Region, via the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce's cross-domain teleportation array, and then traveled by flight to the vicinity of the Qingtian Sect's Mountain Gate.

"Oh! Is this the Qingtian Sect? It looks so low-key."

"Indeed, the continent's number one Sect is actually located in such a place. It's truly unexpected."

Countless Central Province Cultivators looked at the Qingtian Sect's Mountain Gate, exclaiming in shock.

Of course, they only sighed in admiration and dared not show the slightest contempt for the Qingtian Sect.

Because, after the demise of the six great Emperor-level powers in the Central Province, it was rumored that another Emperor War had occurred here at the Qingtian Sect.

As many as ten Great Emperors had once again fallen into the hands of the Qingtian Sect.

For a Sect that slaughters Great Emperors as easily as chickens, let alone being located in a mountain range with sparse Spiritual Qi, even if it were in a place with no Spiritual Qi at all, they would not dare to show the slightest disdain.

"Let's go, let's go find an inn in Qingtian City and settle down, then wait for the Qingtian Sect to open its doors for recruitment."

"Right, right, there are still more than twenty days left, we can't just stand here foolishly."

"Hehe, I heard that the Spiritual Qi in Qingtian City is not inferior to that of the Central Province Holy Land. I wonder if it's true?"

After their initial surprise, all the Central Province Cultivators looked curious and walked towards Qingtian City, which was not far from the Qingtian Sect.

The Cultivators who arrived before them had already sent news of Qingtian City back to the Central Province.

They were all incredibly shocked that Qingtian City's Spiritual Qi was comparable to that of the Central Province's Holy Land.

After all, a city next to the Qingtian Sect was comparable to their Central Province Holy Land; it was truly terrifying.

"Entry fee is 100,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones! Entry fee is 100,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!!"

"Everyone, be self-aware and take it out yourselves. Don't make us rush you, or you won't be allowed into the city."

At the entrance of Qingtian City, two Heavenly Soul Realm youths collecting the entry fee shouted loudly at the Central Province Cultivators preparing to enter the city.

Since these people were Central Province Cultivators, their entry fee had increased by another 90,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

Moreover, this was just the entry fee. Even if they didn't stay in an inn after entering, they still had to pay 100,000 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones daily. If they did stay in an inn, the price would be even higher.

After this period of expansion,

although their Qingtian City had expanded greatly and had various entertainment venues, restaurants, and inns, the number of Cultivators coming from the Central Province this time was simply too large. No matter what price was set, someone would directly book out the entire place, so the prices for all habitable places in the city had been driven sky-high.

"Hehe, City Lord Mu, it seems Qingtian City is still too small. We still need to expedite the expansion of Qingtian City."

On one side of the city gate,

a clansman from the Gu Family said with a smile to a Middle-aged Man from the Mu Family.

"Indeed, City Lord Gu, at this rate, Qingtian City will soon run out of rooms," the Mu Family Middle-aged Man nodded in reply.

Because their Mu Family and Gu Family were both Direct Disciple families of the Sect Master, they were elected as the City Lords of Qingtian City by all the Disciple families in the city, managing all affairs within the city.

They had actually been continuously expanding the city, but the construction speed was still a bit slow in keeping up with the number of Cultivators coming to stay, which was somewhat worrying.

After all, for every Central Province Cultivator they failed to accommodate, they would earn one less Spirit Stone. It was practically like pushing Spirit Stones away.
