Chapter 637: Influx of Low Leveled Cultivators

When the third island finally filled the last missing part of the island, a circular landmass 20 miles in diameter was finally formed.

The street Shang Xia and the others were on was finally complete, and it formed a giant circle.

However, his attention was no longer on the island and neither was it on the Martial Extermination Realm experts on the island. Instead, he focused on the patch of land in the middle of the island along with the flattened area around it.

After the fusion, the area he was paying attention to also became a region of flat land. It was as though it was there in preparation of the massive object to come.

Maybe, that was where the actual trade fair would be taking place.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Shang Xia felt more and more confident that his guess was correct.

In actuality, when everyone else on the island noticed the strangeness of that region, they had the same guess as Shang Xia.

Shang Xia had already left the original island he was on. He strolled about the streets of the other islands. But he noticed that the stores looked basically the same.

Those experts that came to the Three Unity Island definitely wouldn’t laze around or enter secluded cultivation. As such, there were many people walking around.

Not everyone was reassured that nothing would happen during the trade fair they hosted and most of them were scouting out the area for themselves.

All of a sudden, a cry of surprise tore through the air, catching Shang Xia’s attention.

When he turned to look, he noticed a giant ship rising slowly from below the island. It was massive, and it eventually rested at the side of the Three Unity Island.

Paths connecting the ship to the Three Unity Island were quickly formed and a huge number of experts emerged from the ship to enter the island. Their chatter could be heard faintly in the air as they made their way over.

“This… These are Martial Intent Realm cultivators! Huh? There are even several Martial Extremity Realm cultivators among them!” Shang Xia stared at the group of incoming cultivators and frowned.

The number of people who noticed the group of incoming experts grew.

“Huh? Why are there so many low-leveled cultivators?”

“What’s the matter with the giant ship?”

“Cultivators of the Azure Spiritual World! They are all from the Azure Spiritual World!”

“Looks like there are hundreds of them!”

“They actually made a giant ship that can travel through space… What’s the point of giving us our invitation then?!”

“What the hell is going on with this trade fair…”

“The Three Unity Island is only going to get livelier now.!”

“Someone else is coming off the giant ship! They look like the Martial Extermination Realm experts of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect!”

“Hey, if they’re able to send their lower-leveled cultivators over like that, what about the Eternal Sect and Divine Capital Sect?”

“Hiss…”

“...”

Watching the other cultivators pour into the island, everyone had their own opinions on the matter. Shang Xia was shocked by what the Northern Sea Mystic Sect did too. The street he was on immediately became a lot more crowded.

“Hmm… If I knew this would happen, I would have left a lot more treasures with Chu Jia…” Shang Xia muttered to himself as he touched his sleeves.

That was where he stored the Embroidered Cloud Case that contained his Abyssal Void Shattering Talisman. Shang Xia stared at the giant ship in the distance and suddenly felt as though his talismans had lost some of their appeal.

Many people stared in the direction of the ship. As more and more experts poured out, there were even some who went over to chat with the experts of the Northern Sea Mystic Sect they were familiar with.

A piece of news started to spread across the island. It might have been spread by those who left the ship, but it didn’t matter at the end of the day. It was information on the giant ship and everyone learned that it was built by the Northern Sea Mystic Sect specifically for the trade fair. It can ferry 1000 people at once, and it left the Lenghu City where the Northern Sea Mystic Sect was located and it flew straight for the Three Unity Island without stopping anywhere else in space.

This time, it brought the lower-leveled cultivators from the Northern Sea Mystic Sect along with several experts of the Northern Sea Continent. It showed that they didn’t reject outsiders from coming along and all they wanted were essence crystals as a fee.

A one way trip would cost 3 essence crystals while a return trip would cost 6.

Shang Xia made his calculations and realized that if they filled the entire ship up with people, they would be able to earn 3000 essence crystals at the very least. If everyone on board paid for a round trip, they would easily earn 6000 essence crystals! That would mean that if the ship made 4 trips each year, they would earn 24000 essence crystals easily!

Carefully touching another Embroidered Cloud Case in his sleeves, that was where he kept the 3300 essence crystals Kou Chongxue and the rest had given him.

Originally, he felt that it was a huge sum. Now, it didn’t seem that amazing any longer…

Moreover, the Northern Sea Mystic Sect wasn’t the only super faction out there. If they were able to create the ship, what about the Eternal Sect and Divine Capital Sect?

Wouldn’t the other 2 super factions be able to do the same thing?!

Shang Xia stared at the Northern Sea Mystic Sect’s ship before hurrying back in another direction.

The Three Unity Island was created by the Eternal Sect, the Divine Capital Sect, and the Northern Sea Mystic Sect. They sliced out a part of the island they obtained from the Manyu Continent, and the island Shang Xia and members of the Tongyou Institution were on belonged to the Divine Capital Sect. When they first boarded the island, they decided to call it the “Divine Capital islet”

Earlier, Shang Xia noticed the docking of the giant ship when he was on the Northern Sea Islet, and with nothing left to do, he chose to head over to the last of the 3 islands, the Eternal islet.

Indeed… Not too long after he arrived, he heard a familiar clamor coming from the side.

The only difference this time was that a giant ship didn’t appear. Instead, a massive rainbow appeared from the void before connecting to the side of the Three Unity Island to form a rainbow bridge. Cultivators quickly stepped off the bridge and onto the island.

When everyone had stepped off the bridge, the other end of the rainbow bridge started to retract towards the island before it turned into a scarf-like treasure that hung by the side of the island.

Soon, Shang Xia also learned that the Eternal Sect was doing the same thing as the Northern Sea Mystic Sect. However, they only charged 5 essence crystals for a return trip.

Unfortunately, the number of cultivators the rainbow bridge could bring was less than the Northern Sea Mystic Sect’s giant ship. They could bring close to 700 people or so, and they could also use it once every 3 months.

Shang Xia turned in the direction of the Divine Capital Islet the next moment. With the Northern Sea Mystic Sect revealing their giant ship and the Eternal Sect showing off their rainbow bridge, the Divine Capital Sect definitely had their own means of transport. Moreover, they should have already arrived.

Returning to the Divine Capital Islet, Shang Xia could feel that the streets had become a lot busier than before.

One had to know that the stores along the street were merely set up for fun by those Martial Extermination Realm experts. They didn’t expect anyone to buy anything as everyone on the island were of the same cultivation level. As such, they brought out all the junk they couldn’t use.

Now that lower-leveled cultivators from the 3 super factions and their continents had arrived, things had changed.

Those ‘junk’ that couldn’t catch the eye of other experts at the Martial Extermination Realm were actually precious treasures cultivators in the Martial Intent Realm could use! It might even be related to their breakthrough directly! They might need it urgently to craft themselves a graded weapon, or they might be using it to refine medicine related to their cultivation…

Even though they had to pay a certain price to obtain the ‘junk’ of the Martial Extermination Realm experts in the stores, the lower-leveled cultivators were more than willing to do so. After all, if they could only trade with their peers, they might not be able to get the treasures they require even if they had the money to do so!

As such, the current situation on the Three Unity Island was a once in a lifetime opportunity for those lower-leveled cultivators!

Too bad the chance was only given to cultivators of the 3 super factions…

As Shang Xia continued to walk along the street, he extended his divine perception fully. He was trying his luck to see if he could discover any treasures he could use, but he eventually gave up on the idea.

Many people laid down a certain restriction that prevented anyone else from spying on their store. One would only be able to see what was in stock after physically entering.

Those who didn’t maintain the restriction would usually station a Martial Extermination Realm expert in the area. Obviously, no one would be able to pick any treasures up for cheap…

Occasionally, Shang Xia would discover a treasure or two. However, the essence crystals they wanted in exchange seemed to be on the higher side as the value of it hadn’t been fixed yet.

Just like that, Shang Xia made a complete round around the Three Unity Island. When he finally returned, he noticed that the others had arrived before him. Chu Jia was trembling in excitement as she gestured wildly to the rest of them.

“From the looks of it, the Tongyou Hall did pretty well?” Shang Xia could guess why she was so happy and he teased the moment he returned.

At that moment, Shang Xia felt that the high and mighty Formation Grandmaster of the institution was acting like a little girl who was high on a buzz. The air of a teacher or an elder was nowhere to be seen around her!

Turning to Shang Xia, she roared with laughter. “Of course! The cultivators sent by the Divine Capital Sect basically swept away every single treasure on the street including ours! They knew that the prices were slightly inflated, but they didn’t care anyway! We even managed to gain quite a few essence crystals… Oh right. Your Abyssal Void Shattering Talisman also sold for a number of essence crystals!”
