Chapter 704: Chapter 348: Advancement to God Transformation Body Cultivation, Dragon Elephant’s Muscle, Divine Power Dragon Elephant Spear_1
Several days had passed.
This vessel had finally arrived at Xuanhuang Island.
The first thing Xie Hua’an noticed was that the sea area was bustling with activity, with large ships densely packed everywhere.
In the sky, various flying boats of all colors soared.
This port was unusually prosperous, receiving a large number of cultivators every day.
Although there is indeed a teleportation array on Xuanhuang Island, the high cost of using it is not the first option for cultivators. To save expense, their short-distance journeys are still by flying boats, ships, and so on.
...
Of course, for exceptionally far-off destinations, they still choose the teleportation array.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Instantly, Xie Hua’an and his group docked their boat and entered the port.
Looking up, they immediately noticed an incredibly imposing city rise before them. It seemed the city wall extended for thousands of miles, with hundreds of feet in height, and prohibition arrays densely set all around.
Many fully-armed cultivators guarded the city, and an intense, solemn atmosphere filled the air.
“This is Xuanwu City, one of Xuanhuang Island’s cities.”
“The entire island has four cities that are open to outsiders.”
“These are Xuanwu City, Green Dragon City, Vermillion Bird City, and White Tiger City, each located in different parts.”
“Every city sprawls across tens of thousands of miles, enough to hold a large number of cultivator populations.”
“Up till now, each city has a population of tens of billions.”
A cultivator in the foundation establishment stage explained.
“No way, how can there be so many people?”
Xie Hua’an and the others were stunned, their eyes wide in disbelief.
To be honest, this was equivalent to a super-large country, but now it was just a city.
It indeed was a case of one city equals one nation.
“They migrated from islands across Canglan Sea.”
“You know, ever since the merging phenomenon appeared, a large number of Progenitor Beasts surged in from the ancient Demon Realm.”
“Now, the Canglan Sea region has become extremely unsafe; a slight carelessness can lead to attacks from the Progenitor Beasts, resulting in annihilation of the entire clan.”
“Because of this, many cultivator clans abandoned their original base and migrated to Xuanhuang Island.”
“In the past hundreds of years, who knows how many people have migrated over.”
“Also, as time passes, the population keeps increasing.”
The cultivator at the foundation establishment stage sighed with emotion.
In the beginning, Xuanhuang Island was practically deserted, where no persons are habitually accustomed to living.
But as Xuanhuang Sect was established, a large number of cultivators migrated over.
As a result, Xuanhuang Island has become increasingly prosperous.
“With so many cultivators residing here, can Xuanhuang Island provide for them?”
Someone couldn’t help but ask.
After all, the resources that cultivators need are vast, requiring Spirit Rice, Spiritual Fish, Spirit Meat, and more, with their daily necessities being extremely large. At times, a single cultivator at the foundation establishment stage would require an entire clan’s support.
You can imagine how much resources a cultivator needs to consume; it simply is unthinkable.
“Just child’s play.”
“You should know that the Xuanhuang Sect is a Nascent Soul Sect, occupying a sea area of several tens of billions of square kilometers.”
“This sea area has countless third-stage islands and fourth-stage islands.”
“The cultivators of Xuanhuang Sect would go to these islands to open up farmland and plant Spirit Rice, Spiritual Medicine, and so on.”
“After these crops mature, they would be teleported back to Xuanhuang Island.”
“You could say, they gather resources from across the sea to provide for this fifth stage island.”
“If you were to live here, you will find the Spirit Rice, Pills, Progenitor Beast Meat, etc., are all cheaper by over fifty percent compared to the outside world, perhaps even more.”
The cultivator at foundation establishment stage said in a deep voice.
“That can’t be, how can it be so cheap?”
Many loose cultivators were dumbstruck.
They felt that the price of commodities in the cities on Xuanhuang Island should be very high. They did not expect that it would be cheaper than the outside world.
This point was really inconceivable.
“It’s only natural because the volume is simply too large.”
“Spirit Rice from various parts of the sea region will be gathered on Xuanhuang Island.”
“With a high volume and low demand, naturally, it becomes worthless.”
“Plus, on Xuanhuang Island, there are countless Talisman Masters, Artificers, Array Masters, Pill Masters, and so on.”
“They are crazily crafting talismans, magical treasures, array plates, pills etc., also contributing to the low prices.”
“Many cultivators buy goods on Xuanhuang Island and then sell them to various islands.”
“This also makes Xuanhuang Island a true central island.”
“Of course, truly scarce resources are still very expensive, such as Foundation Pills, Golden Liquid Jade Return Pills, etc.”
The cultivator at the foundation establishment stage further explained.
“If that’s the case, isn’t this place a paradise for cultivators?”
The eyes of many loose cultivators suddenly lit up, each looking thrilled.
“Hehe, don’t dream.”
“Although the cost of living on Xuanhuang Island is indeed low, the cost of living is still very high.”
“Especially the rent in this place is at least ten times that of other places.”
“In other words, you may be able to afford the food here, but you can’t afford the rent.”
“Moreover, if you don’t rent a house in the city, you will be driven out.”
The cultivator at the foundation establishment stage chuckled.
He too wishes to reside in Xuanhuang Island, but the rent was simply too high.
Once he pays the rent, he would not be able to cultivate.
“If that’s the case, what should we do?”
Many people wore facial expressions like bitter gourds.
They had not expected that the rent on Xuanhuang Island would be so high that even they, as cultivators, could not afford it.
What do you think?
