“If that’s the case, then we really can’t use this teleportation formation.”
Chen Yang pondered for a moment and looked at Zhou Mou again.” Senior Brother, how long will it take to go around this dense forest?”
“If we go around it, it will take about two more years. And this was with the Blue Luan following him.”
“Without the Blue Luan following us, we would have to continue to take a detour. It would take us another year to go back and forth.”Zhou Mou said.
“Five years? It’s not that we can’t accept it. We still have to prioritize safety.” Yang Chen would rather have the caravan take a detour than lose the caravan that he had painstakingly built in the Teleportation Formation.
Of course, Yang Chen was still a little unwilling.
“Honored Guest Ling, can you repair the space in the dense forest and increase its stability?”Yang Chen asked.
Hearing this, Ling You seriously thought for a moment before saying,”To put it bluntly, the space there is not stable enough.”
“As for the formation to stabilize space, it’s not too difficult, but you must master the Dao of Space. I’m a little helpless.”
“However, if I can find the legendary Space Suppressing Stone, I can set up a formation to stabilize the space in the dense forest.”
“Void Suppression Stone.”
Chen Yang looked at Ling You.” Honored Guest Ling, what is that Void Suppression Stone?”
“Clan Head, this Void Suppressing Stone is a type of Mystical Material. According to its grade, it should be classified as a fifth-grade Mystical Material.”
“The effect of this Void Suppressing Stone is to stabilize space.”
“Just like those legendary secret realms, they were opened up by supreme experts from space. In order to stabilize the secret realm, utmost powerful beings would throw in Space Suppressing Stones.”
“Of course, the space that the Spatial Suppression Stone can stabilize is also related to its size. Generally speaking, an inch-sized Spatial Suppression Stone can stabilize about a hundred miles of space.”
“About a hundred miles.”
Yang Chen carefully calculated, and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes. He slowly said,”If we want to stabilize that space, wouldn’t we need a Space Suppressing Stone that is dozens of meters in size?”
Although Yang Chen didn’t know how much this Void Suppression Stone was worth, he knew that this kind of treasure that could change its effect according to its size would definitely be more valuable the bigger it was.
Such a large Void Suppression Stone must be worth a sky-high price. It was likely that the Chen family would not be able to buy it even if they emptied their pockets.
Even if they could buy it, such a large Void Suppression Stone would definitely be a hot item. It was a problem whether the Chen family could buy it.
“That’s true, but it can’t be counted that way.”Ling You continued.
“Oh, you can’t do it like this?” Chen Yang looked at Ling You. Could it be that Ling You could use such a small amount of Void Suppression Stones to display such a great effect?
Looking at Chen Yang’s gaze, Ling You smiled and said,”Patriarch, the method you mentioned is purely to use the Space Suppressing Stone to stabilize the space.”
“In fact, once these Space Suppressing Rocks are used in conjunction with the array that we array masters set up, the space they can affect will often become even larger.”
“Take the space in this dense forest for example. As long as you give me a one-meter-wide Space Suppressing Stone, I’m confident that I can stabilize the entire space.”
“This is also because my array formation cultivation is not enough to set up a profound array formation. If it was a fifth or fourth-grade array formation master, half a meter would be enough.”
Hearing this, Yang Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
Although this one-meter-wide Void Suppression Stone was still not small, it was much better than before.
The Chen family also had the confidence to collect and purchase them.
Thinking of this, Yang Chen secretly noted it down. When the time came, he would pay attention to the movement of the Void Suppression Stone and see if he could find such a treasure.
After explaining the matter of the array formation, Ling You did not stay any longer and immediately stood up to bid farewell.
After Ling You left, Chen Yang continued to look at Zhou Mou.” Senior Brother, tell me what you’ve discovered.”
“Alright.”
Zhou Mou nodded and slowly explained,”After we passed through the Endless Mountain Range, we arrived at a territory ruled by a sixth-rank aristocratic family.”
“After we arrived here, we began to look for the various merchant associations to see what treasures there were.”
“In these merchant associations, we have indeed found many treasures that we have never seen in the Endless Mountain Range.”
“According to my estimation, as long as we sell it back and forth, we can definitely earn a large number of spirit stones.”
“And after investigating, we also found many treasures that are unique to our Endless Mountain Range.”
“In short, Junior Brother, your plan is feasible. As long as we stabilize this trade route, we can definitely make a fortune.”
“It’s just that…”
At this point, Zhou Mou paused for a moment, as if he had something to hide.
Seeing this, Yang Chen smiled and said,”Senior Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it.””
Hearing this, Zhou Mou made up his mind and expressed his worries.” Junior Brother, I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult for our caravan to continue.”
“No, you shouldn’t say that. To be precise, we can only buy from there, but we can’t sell our unique treasures there.”
Hearing Zhou Mou’s words, Yang Chen had already guessed the reason, but he still asked,””Oh, what happened?”
“It’s like this. After half a year of investigation, we discovered that there are only three chambers of commerce in the entire territory of a sixth-rank aristocratic family.”
“Among these three chambers of commerce, one of them only sells rare treasures that are not helpful for cultivation, as well as pills like the Beauty Pill.”
“As for the remaining two chambers of commerce, one of them sells all kinds of cultivation-related resources, while the other sells treasures such as Spirit Tool Array Diagrams that can increase a warrior’s combat strength.”
“It seems that these three chambers of commerce have reached some kind of agreement. They will sell their own products without disturbing each other or competing with the other two chambers of commerce.”
“After our investigation, we found that this isn’t unique to the places we went to. Almost all the territories of these Rank-6 forces have this kind of scene.” “According to the locals, this situation has already existed. Moreover, these three chambers of commerce attacked all other chambers of commerce.” “Those who try to establish a chamber of commerce and do business will suffer all kinds of accidents.”
“And the Chamber of Commerce that was founded won’t be able to last long.” “Therefore, I conclude that if we were to hold a Chamber of Commerce outside the Endless Mountains, we would also suffer the joint suppression of the three major merchants.”
Hearing Zhou Mou’s words, Yang Chen’s eyes lit up.
This Zhou Mou really did bring some important information.
Other things were not important. The main thing was the Chamber of
Commerce that sold resources unrelated to cultivation. It sounded like this Chamber of Commerce had formed an alliance with the other two Chambers of Commerce.
If that was really the case, then the Li family’s plan would probably be hindered.
Perhaps, there was some powerful force behind this Chamber of Commerce.
The force behind this might have contacted Dynasty and joined forces to suppress all the merchant associations that appeared.
It seemed that he needed to plan seriously..
