Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 460 World Collision
Zhang Chulan was taken aback upon hearing this, then exclaimed in amazement, "As expected of Brother Su, you are indeed insightful!"

Su Haoming's lips curled into a smirk, and he was about to tease him for 'having money to open a shop but not money to buy cultivation techniques' when he saw Ye Fan roll his eyes and mercilessly expose him:

"Pretending!"

"What do you mean by keen observation? He clearly saw the advertisement on your clothes!"

Upon hearing this, Su Haoming's smile froze instantly, and he glared angrily at Ye Fan, saying:
"You, Ye Fan, are you trying to sabotage me?"

"..."

Ye Fan paid no attention to Su Haoming's reaction and continued to look at Zhang Chulan opposite him, saying:
"You made these staff uniforms yourself, didn't you know the store name was embroidered on them?"

"..."

Hearing this, Zhang Chulan stopped pretending and simply chuckled:

"I was just trying to liven things up a bit~"

"I knew it!"

Ye Fan pursed his lips and glanced at Su Haoming beside him seemingly casually.

Although he didn't say a word, it seemed as if he had already expressed all his innermost feelings.

Su Haoming, embarrassed and angry, glared at him and said, "I also want to liven things up, is that not allowed?"

"..."

Ye Fan rolled his eyes and mouthed "clown" at Su Haoming.

Su Haoming flew into a rage and immediately grabbed Ye Fan's arm, shouting that he wanted to go to the Arena of All Heavens to fight him to the death.

Zhang Chulan was startled and quickly tried to dissuade him, changing the subject with a wry smile: "You two brothers must have heard that my backing is not just the Celestial Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain."

"How to use these Heavenly Coins is not something I can decide alone!"

This is indeed true. As the representative of Under One Person, every coin in Zhang Chulan's hands represents the hard-earned money of hundreds of millions of people. He cannot use his position for personal gain.

The fact that Zhang Chulan was able to take out 10,000 Heavenly Coins to buy an entry token for the Old Master was not Zhang Chulan's own decision, but rather the result of careful consideration by his think tank.

After all, in the City of Heavens, individual martial prowess can be compared to collective strength.

Zhang Chulan and his group lacked a strong individual to oversee their forces, so after discussion, they decided to send Zhang Zhiwei into the city first and train him to become a capable fighter, thus making up for their lack of personal martial prowess.

"Hey, you guys are pretty greedy!"

Su Haoming laughed and said, "You want to do both things well, right?"

Zhang Chulan smiled sheepishly.

Before he could answer, Ye Fan shook his head and said:
"In that case, we can't skimp on the cultivation techniques!"

"Brother Ye is absolutely right!"

Zhang Chulan smiled and said, "We naturally understand this principle. The reason why we haven't purchased suitable cultivation techniques yet is mainly because our shop is newly opened and we don't have enough funds for the time being."

"Once this period is over and the shop can operate normally, we will definitely buy the cultivation technique for Master as soon as possible!"

That's pretty much it!
but……

Ye Fan's gaze shifted to the two lines of Chinese characters on Zhang Chulan's chest, and he said in a strange tone:

"Earth General Store, Memory Pawnshop..."

"You were already short of funds, so why did you open two stores at once?"

Zhang Chulan chuckled and said, "That's something Brother Ye doesn't know!"

"The shops in the Myriad Realms Plaza are extremely spacious, and they also have their own space expansion magic inside."

"After discussing it, we felt that it would be a waste to open only one shop in such a large space. We thought it would be better to divide the space into different areas and create a combined shopping mall."

"This way, we save money, make full use of space, and achieve multiple benefits from one store!"

So it's one shop and two new shops?

Su Haoming and Ye Fan exchanged glances, seemingly surprised by such a bizarre move.

Just then, Zhang Chulan flipped his right hand and took out two gold cards from the storage space that came with the city entry token, handing them to Su Haoming and Ye Fan in front of him with great enthusiasm.

"It's fate that we met. Come, come, one for each of you, don't be picky!"

"..."

Su Haoming's lips twitched, and he hesitated as he looked at the gold card in his hand, saying, "This is... your membership card?"

Zhang Chulan said with a grin, "That's right, you can enjoy a 10% discount when you use your card!"

Ye Fan played with the gold card with great interest, and with a sweep of his divine sense, he obtained the basic information of the two shops.

Among them, the shop called "Earth General Store" is Zhang Chulan and his group's main business.

Their business is so diverse and all-encompassing that it can be said to have everything from cheap industrial products and household goods to wholesale arms and world-class infrastructure projects.

This kind of shop is less of a general store and more of a base for Zhang Chulan and his team to take on business.

Compared to that, Ye Fan was more interested in their second shop – the Memory Pawnshop!

As the name suggests, the shop's main business is related to memory.

Customers can either pawn memories for celestial coins or purchase their desired memories in the shop to quickly master a skill by absorbing those memories.

Just like the items currently listed in the gold card, there are various memory points such as driving, swimming, fighting, languages, and cultivation experience.

Seeing this, Su Haoming's interest was piqued, and he immediately asked with great interest:

"Dual-wielding?"

Zhang Chulan smiled and said, "That's right!"

Su Haoming asked curiously, "Then Qu Tong and the Lü family..."

“…” Zhang Chulan and the Old Celestial Master exchanged a glance.

The former said with a smile, "The company ignored these supernatural forces that were jumping around everywhere before because we were worried that the originally peaceful society would descend into chaos, but now..."

"In the face of the tide of the times, all personal interests must give way!"

Su Haoming looked enlightened, silently mourning for the troublemakers among those extraordinary individuals for a few seconds.

"So, you've already obtained all eight extraordinary skills?"

"That's it!"

Zhang Chulan laughed and said, "At least all the extraordinary individuals who have mastered the Eight Extraordinary Techniques have been recruited by the new cross-disciplinary department."

Su Haoming raised an eyebrow and said, "No resistance?"

Zhang Chulan shook his head and said, "At first, there was some, but after learning some of the truth behind the scenes, those stubborn elements changed their minds instantly and cooperated very well."

"Even Master Zhou from Wudang voluntarily 'surrendered,' saying he would exchange his Feng Hou Qi Men technique for a city entry permit..."

Upon hearing this, Su Haoming and Ye Fan couldn't help but chuckle.

After a moment's thought, the latter accepted the membership card and then said with a smile:

"In that case, I, Ye, will gladly accept your offer!"

"But then again, one should not accept undeserved rewards."

"Since Ye has taken the benefits, he should at least give something back."

"Perfect timing. The Celestial Master hasn't chosen his future cultivation method yet. I have some insights in this area, so how about we take this opportunity to exchange some ideas?"

Upon hearing the previous words, Zhang Chulan quickly opened his mouth, intending to persuade Ye Fan that there was no need to do so.

But before he could say those words, he heard Ye Fan's subsequent suggestion.

Without hesitation, Zhang Chulan immediately shut his mouth and stared intently at Ye Fan.

The old Celestial Master's expression turned serious, and he slowly said, "I would like to hear the details!"

Ye Fan chuckled and said, "All the myriad realms and the various systems are simply divided into seeking within and seeking without."

"The primordial Qi cultivated by the Celestial Master is a typical path of seeking within. Although this path also requires the use of external objects, it ultimately comes down to developing power from within the body."

"The Celestial Master comes from a low-level demon world, yet he still possesses such cultivation. He must have already gone very far in his chosen path."

"In that case, why not choose a path with a higher ceiling—the path of introspection—and inherit the cultivation and state of mind of the past?"

"In this way, we can definitely make rapid progress and avoid the pain of bottlenecks!"

Oh?
The old Celestial Master became interested and immediately said with a solemn expression, "The Daoist scriptures of Zhutian City are as numerous as the stars. Since you have said this, you must already have a recommendation in mind, right?"

Ye Fan smiled slightly and said, "The Divine Treasury Secret Realm that I cultivate is in harmony with the Celestial Master!"

The Path to Covering the Sky?

Zhang Chulan's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but exchange a glance with the Old Master.

As Ye Fan said, the power system of Shrouding the Heavens is indeed compatible with that of Under One Person.

The five secret realms can all be found in the various martial arts techniques of the Under One Person sect.

In particular, the Dao Palace in the second secret realm focuses on cultivating the five internal organs, which is in line with the Qi cultivation method.

With the old Celestial Master's life and cultivation, as long as he can open up the Sea of ​​Bitterness and reach the other shore, he can smoothly enter the Dao Palace and cultivate the five internal organs and divine treasures at an extremely fast speed.

"But we are not beings who can cover the sky, so how can we open up the sea of ​​suffering?"

"rest assured!"

Ye Fan smiled and said, "I and my fellow cultivators have already verified that the Sea of ​​Bitterness is not unique to the world of Shrouding the Heavens. People like Brother Su, who live in a world without demons, also have the Sea of ​​Bitterness within them. However, the Sea of ​​Bitterness is hidden and difficult to find, so it cannot be opened."

"Just like the primordial Qi that you two cultivate, it also exists extensively within all living beings."

"As long as the right method is found, even someone from a world without magic can be successfully lured out..."

Oh?
The old master's eyes lit up, and Zhang Chulan, who was next to him, was even more interested in this power system after reading "Covering the Sky".

Without hesitation, the latter immediately stepped forward and said warmly, "This place is too crowded and noisy to talk. If Brother Ye doesn't mind, why don't you come with us to the shop for a while and we can discuss things in detail?"

Ye Fan and Su Haoming exchanged a glance, and Ye Fan smiled slightly and said, "That is indeed my wish, I dare not ask!"

And so, Ye Fan and Su Haoming set off, following Zhang Chulan and the Old Celestial Master toward their newly opened shop, ready to discuss the details of cultivation techniques.

……

At the same time, in the endless, lofty heights above the City of Heavens, Lin Yu's true consciousness withdrew its gaze from the crowd.

He knew why Ye Fan recommended his power system; it was simply because he saw the potential of the City of All Heavens and planned to increase the value of the resources in the Shrouding the Heavens world, while also seeing how this path would evolve in other worlds.

Lin Yu himself didn't care about things like this.

Because the same thing is happening all over other parts of Zhutian City.

The active members of the group began to interact with the residents of Zhutian City, and the resulting cultural shocks and clashes with the world were significantly more complex than those in the previous chat groups.

This is quite normal. With Lin Yu in charge of the chat group, there are fewer troubles, but also more constraints.

Even group members like Xiao Yan and Ye Fan, who are protagonists, often seek help from Lin Yu first when they encounter problems, rather than discussing and verifying with each other.

But if it were the City of All Heavens, it would be a different story!

It is conceivable that in the future, the City of All Heavens will give birth to all sorts of strange and wonderful ideas as various worlds collide, becoming a prosperous place that truly integrates the characteristics of all heavens.

However, to do this, you first need to connect enough worlds.

What Lin Yu himself is currently doing is searching for more worlds in the endless void and looking for more qualified people to enter the city.

For example, right now, he has his eye on a world, a mid-thousand world located in the mythological multiverse, slightly larger than the one in A Chinese Ghost Story...
