“There may not be any in Star City,” Yang Kai slowly shook his head. He had stayed in Star City for a while and had even interacted with many shopkeepers, but he had never heard of anyone selling Open Heaven Pill's recipes. This undoubtedly meant that even in the Star City, this Open Heaven Pill’s pill recipe was a rare item. As he spoke, his eyes suddenly lit up, “I know who to look for.”
Yue He smiled, “Elder Sister Lan?”
Yang Kai nodded, “Proprietress definitely has a pill recipe.”
On top of that, Yang Kai had originally planned to wait until the Nine Layers Heaven Array was completed before he went to look for the Proprietress. His current cultivation had fallen into an awkward situation, and without the appropriate resources for the Gold Element and Yin-Yang forces, even a clever housewife cannot cook without rice.
The Proprietress had stayed in the First Inn for a long time and had obtained many rare pieces of information, so perhaps he could inquire about where he could find the things he needed.
Now that the Nine Layers Heaven Array had been fully set up, Zhu Jiu Yin had recovered some of her strength and the Void Land had a strong ability to protect itself, even if Yang Kai left, there was nothing to worry about.
Without delay, three days after Immeasurable Grandmaster left, Yang Kai made some arrangements for the Void Land and set out.
This trip was different from the previous one. The previous time, Yang Kai had only brought Lu Xue and Guo Ziyan, but this time, he had brought a lot of people with him. The Lotus Fall he had obtained from the Flying Flower Boat was a large artifact, and many people had to work together to control it.
Most of the cultivators from the Star Boundary were cultivating, so Yang Kai simply brought Lang Qingshan and the others who had followed him out of the Great Ruins Boundary.
Yue He and Guo Ziyan would also accompany him. With Yue He, a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage master, keeping watch, it was likely that no one would dare to act rashly.
In the void, Lu Xue, Chen Tian Fei, and Bian Yuqing stood side by side, respectfully saying, “Farewell, True Lord.”
Lu Xue and Bian Yuqing were still alright, but Yang Kai didn’t know why Chen Tian Fei had such a bitter look on his face, like a woman who had been abandoned. When he had decided to go find the Proprietress, Chen Tian Fei had volunteered to follow Yang Kai.
However, considering he needed to look after the gourd vine, Yang Kai didn’t agree.
Chen Tian Fei’s fat face immediately wrinkled into a bitter grimace.
Ignoring this man’s resentful gaze, Yang Kai nodded and plunged into the giant lotus flower, the others following closely behind. A moment later, under Yue He’s control, the giant lotus flower slowly unfurled, turning into a stream of light as it flew out.
The Great Array rumbled as a crack appeared and the lotus flower shot into the sky, quickly disappearing.
“Ah!” Staring into the void, Chen Tian Fei sighed heavily.
The last time Guo Ziyan and Lu Xue had gone out with Yang Kai, they had both broken through. After that, he had asked the two of them about what kind of opportunity they had encountered, but both Guo Ziyan and Lu Xue had kept their mouths shut and didn’t tell them any details, only saying that it was all thanks to Yang Kai’s blessing that they had been able to achieve what they had today.
Chen Tian Fei, a Fourth Order Open Heaven Stage master, had been trapped in this stage for many years, if he wanted to break through, he would need at least a hundred years of hard work. If he could break through with Yang Kai, how could he not seize this opportunity?
Unfortunately, Yang Kai did not agree, causing him to sigh.
He withdrew her gaze reluctantly and turned to look at Bian Yuqing, chuckling as he said, “Second Chief Manager, now that the True Lord is not here, Lady Yue He has also left, I’ll have to trouble you with the Void Land’s matters.”
Bian Yuqing politely said, “I’ll need your help.”
Chen Tian Fei replied, “Of course, if Second Chief Manager has any instructions, please feel free to tell me. I, Chen Tian Fei, am extremely loyal to True Lord, if it is within my power, I will not refuse.”
“Then this Mistress will first thank you.”
Chen Tian Fei enthusiastically said, “Second Chief Manager, if you have any questions regarding cultivation, you can come find this Old Chen. Old Chen will not hide anything.”
Lu Xue glanced at him vigilantly and lightly said, “I will explain to Second Chief Manager about the matters of cultivation.” Saying so, she pulled Bian Yuqing’s hand and walked towards the Central Hall.
Chen Tian Fei opened his mouth but didn’t say anything, only letting out a heavy sigh before walking towards the gourd vine. When he arrived, however, the gourd vine was nowhere to be seen, leaving only a huge pit in its place, causing his face to pale, “My little ancestors, where did you run off to?”
Fortunately, after the Nine Layers Heaven Array was completely set up, the entire Void Land became a sealed space. Even if the gourd vine tried to escape, it would not be able to escape.
…
The speed of the Lotus Fall is extremely fast, and in less than a day, they arrived at the Star City of the Void Territory.
Every Great Domain had its own Star City, but the size of the Star City was directly related to the foundation of this Great Domain. There were many forces in this Great Domain, so the Star City was naturally lively.
The foundation of the Void Territory wasn’t very strong, and it was only a second class force like the Seven Skillful Land before, so the Star City here wasn’t very large, and the goods it sold weren’t too rare.
However, on this trip, Yang Kai had not only gone to the Proprietress to ask for the Open Heaven Pill's recipe and inquire about information, but he also had plans to purchase cultivation resources. He still had seven or eight hundred million Open Heaven Pills on hand, but for the current Void Land, the Open Heaven Pill was not something he urgently needed. What he needed was cultivation resources of various grades.
Therefore, it would be best if he could exchange these seven or eight hundred million Open HEaven Pills for cultivation resources of various grades.
Since he had come to the Star City, he naturally couldn’t let it go.
This was also the first time Yang Kai had come to this Star City in the Void Territory. The Lotus Fall stopped outside the Star City, leaving behind Guo Ziyan, he led Yue He and Lang Qingshan into it.
After half a day, they finally left the Star City.
During this half day, Yang Kai had spent more than a hundred million Open Heaven Pills, all of which were used to purchase Third and Fourth Grade resources.
In such a small Star City, there was no hope of finding a Sixth Grade resources, because in the entire Void Territory, besides Yang Kai, no one had the ability to eat such a high grade resource.
As for the Fifth Grade, Yang Kai didn’t plan on purchasing it. The Void Land had the Gourd Vines, which could be collected once a month. Each harvest was enough for a cultivator’s Yin-Yang + Five Elements forces. After accumulating them for many years, it is always sufficient for them.
Therefore, he only bought third or fourth grade resources.
A fourth grade material was only 150,000 Open Heaven Pills, and a third grade material was only 15,000!
Over a hundred million Open Heaven Pills had nearly wiped out all of Star City’s Third and Fourth Grade resources. After so many years, when had the Star City of the Void Territory ever made such a large transaction? The various shops all treated Yang Kai like a God of Fortune and respectfully welcomed him.
Yang Kai didn’t buy any materials below the Third Grade.
For the six hundred thousand people from the Star Boundary, they had a good starting point. With the entire Void Land backing them, they could either not reach the Open Heaven Stage or at least reach the Third Order!
The people Yang Kai had brought from the Star Boundary were all selected elites, so it wasn’t difficult for them to reach the Third Order Open Heaven Stage. Of course, the premise was that they could condense their own Dao Seals.
Countless Emperor Realm had painstakingly cultivated, but they were unable to comprehend their own Great Dao, so naturally they were unable to condense their Dao Seals.
Of these six hundred thousand people, how many of them would be able to achieve Open Heaven in the end? Perhaps ten percent, perhaps less than half, but it was the future foundation of the entire Void Land and was worth investing in.
A few days later, they arrived at the Star City of another Great Domain called the Flying Smoke Territory.
It was the domain where the Flying Smoke Palace was located.
Originally, the Seven Skillful Land and Flying Smoke Palace were neighbors, and there was a lot of friction between them. If Flying Smoke Palace hadn’t gone all out to attack the Seven Skillful Land, the Seven Skillful Land wouldn’t have fallen into Yang Kai’s hands.
To a certain extent, it was the Flying Smoke Palace that help Yang Kai occupy the Void Land.
The Star City of this Great Domain was similar to the Star City of the past. The Lotus Fall stopped at the Starry Sky Harbor of the Star City, Yang Kai, Yue He, and Lang Qingshan slowly stepped into the Star City.
Half a day later, under the respectful escort of the Star City’s various shopkeepers, Yang Kai strode away.
As he proceeded forward, he continued purchasing.
After three or four Star City, Yang Kai only had less than four hundred million Open Heaven Pills left, and the amount of Open Heaven Pills he had spent had been converted into thousands of fourth grade and over ten thousand third grade resources.
Such a number was terrifying.
Half a month later, the Lotus Fall flew into a Great Domain called the Startled Goose Territory and compared it to the Universe Chart before finding the direction of the Star City. Under Yue He’s guidance, the Lotus Fall descended towards the Star City.
Yang Kai estimated that after purchasing all the Third and Fourth Grade resources in this Star City, it would be enough for the Void Land’s early stages.
As for the remaining Open Heaven Pills, he wanted to see if he could buy some Sixth Grade resources, but the number of Sixth Grade resources was simply too small. There was always a high price but no supply, so once they appeared, they would usually be snatched away.
Perhaps he could go to the Star City where the First Inn was located to take a look. The Star City was quite large and might have a Sixth Grade resource. Moreover, he would need to leave some for backup. After all, although there weren’t many Open Heaven Stage masters in the Void Land right now, they still needed Open Heaven Pills to cultivate, especially Yue He, who was a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage cultivator. The demand for such pills was huge, requiring thousands or even tens of thousands of Open Heaven Pills every day.
Inside the Lotus Fall, Yang Kai was loss in thought for a moment before looking up and seeing Guo Ziyan staring back at him, but when their eyes met, Guo Ziyan quickly looked away.
Yang Kai couldn’t help laughing, “Commander Guo, do you have something to say? If you have something to say, just say it.”
Guo Ziyan scratched his head awkwardly and said somewhat awkwardly, “Sir, this humble subordinate wants to take a few days off.”
“Day off?” Yang Kai looked at him curiously, “Where are you going?”
Yue He also turned to look.
Guo Ziyan blushed slightly and asked, “Sir, do you remember this humble subordinate telling you that this humble subordinate has a daughter?”
Yang Kai was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it for a moment, he nodded and said, “I remember, you said that you sent her to a place to become a disciple.”
This was something Guo Ziyan had mentioned back in the Great Ruins Boundary. At that time, Yang Kai had rewarded Lang Qingshan, the Cunning Face Man, and the others with suitable cultivation resources, but Guo Ziyan had already reached the Open Heaven Stage and had no demand.
