During this thousand years, in addition to improving itself to a small realm, the three great monsters also made some breakthroughs. The one that made the most progress was the hallucinogenic butterfly. After the effect of the enlightenment pill, its intelligence far exceeded that of monsters. Although it has not yet transformed into a human form, it can already absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for cultivation. At this time, it has reached the tenth level, and its improvement is very fast.
On this day, an old man and a young man appeared outside the dark abyss. They were the incarnation of Ling Tian and the divine monkey. Their arrival did not arouse any suspicion at all. Three days later, a new shop appeared in the Wanjie Chamber of Commerce. This was acquired by Ling Tian at a high price and was used for operations.
Inside the store, Ling Tian was conducting a soul contract ceremony for dozens of newly recruited Foundation Establishment employees.
"Alright, from now on you will be the first members of our Lingtian Chamber of Commerce. If you are loyal to me, I will give you what you want. Take these Phantom Demon Pills. I will notify you to enter the Demon Realm to hand over the supplies when the time comes."
"Xiao Jin, Brother Monkey, please take care of this."
Ling Tian is making plans. He wants to build a trade bridge between the demon world and the human world. The business opportunities here are huge, which just meets his needs. He wants to earn countless spirit stones for his cultivation and improvement.
On this day, Ling Tian, dressed up a little, entered the Demon Realm as an ordinary young cultivator looking for opportunities. The sky here was not as bright as the one in the human world, it was a bit of a weird red, and the colors around were also monotonous, with black as the main tone and some red and gray mixed in.
He does not need to take the magic pill, as long as he uses the magic armor magic, he can transform into the desired demon appearance.
Three days later, he successfully sneaked into a small village dozens of miles away from the entrance.
"Village Chief Xilu, our village has a large area of fertile farmland. Why don't we cultivate it and grow spiritual herbs? We can use it to trade with those outsiders and obtain abundant food and cultivation resources. Otherwise, we will still be exploited by the demons."
"Luo Ling, keep your voice down. If this gets out, we'll be in trouble."
"Well, you think we don't want to? If we start planting, they'll have an excuse to collect a planting tax. And we can't stop planting. It's a blood-thirsty business, we can't afford it. Not only will we be working for nothing all year round, but we'll also suffer."
"Things are a bit tough now, but thanks to everyone's hard work in finding elixirs and exchanging them for supplies with outsiders, life is relatively stable."
Ling Tian knew what Xilu was afraid of, and he couldn't change his mind in a short time, so he had to come up with a perfect plan. This fertile land stretched for miles, and he didn't want to miss it. The profit from growing low-level magic medicine was fast, and it could be doubled or even multiplied several times if it was transported to the human world. Moreover, he could also use the caravan he formed to transport some supplies in and make money on both ends.
Ling Tian wasn't the only one with this idea; all the major trading houses had already been doing it, but they couldn't scale it too large, or the demonic forces would annihilate them. Small-scale skirmishes didn't bother them, but the demons weren't aware of the humans using the Phantom Demon Pill to enter this place in search of natural treasures. They simply ignored it. They came seeking opportunities, and they were also providing opportunities for the demons. It was a win-win situation, so why not?
Moreover, the great demon is very eager for the entry of humans. This has extremely far-reaching significance. Countless humans have come in, and more or less some of them have been naturalized and used by them. This is of great significance to their invasion of the human world. Looking at the situation in the Xudu Secret Realm, we can know that the invasion has become quite serious.
The next day, Ling Ren and more than a dozen low-level demons from the village went into the mountains to look for elixirs. The demon world was indeed as vast as rumored. The territory of Xilu's village alone was dozens of times wider than Beidan City.
"Devil Sun Fruit!"
Ling Tian pretended to be surprised. With his spiritual sense, no elixir within a ten-mile radius could escape his clutches.
"Really? That's great! There are thirteen fruits in total. Ah Man, go collect them. Don't damage the roots. Go back in six months."
Xilu was very happy. These thirteen Magic Sun Fruits could be exchanged for five days' worth of food for their village.
"Luo Ling, great achievement. I'll give you double the rations after exchanging them."
“This is what I should do.”
"Village Chief Xilu, we can actually grow these in the forest. That way, we can avoid the demon's cultivation tax."
"It can't be grown. Once there are too many spiritual herbs, they will attract demons and monsters, and they might even harm the village."
"Can the demon be subdued?"
"Of course you can, but you need to be a powerful Demon General in the late stage. However, there are also those who are born with the ability to communicate with demons and monsters. Only the Holy Demon Clan can do that. Let's go and continue searching."
Xilu’s words made Lingtian’s eyes light up. Isn’t this a good opportunity?
With Ling Tian's joining, their luck today seemed to be very good. In just one hour, they actually found more than ten spiritual herbs, two of which were level two. This was their usual daily harvest.
In a small valley, Luo Ling, who had just dug up a magical medicine, suddenly saw the surroundings change. A butterfly with black wings and a red body suddenly appeared.
"Ah, this... this is a magic butterfly, everyone run."
Luo Ling seemed to be so frightened that he couldn't move, and fell to the ground in pretended fear. Xilu and more than ten people had already fled in panic.
"Village Chief, what should we do? Luo Ling..."
"Oh, maybe this is fate. I actually encountered a level three magic butterfly. This is comparable to a late stage demon general, extremely powerful. I'm afraid he is..."
Xilu sighed and shook his head. He knew the result in his heart without even thinking about it.
At this moment, Luo Ling appeared in front of the demons unharmed, scaring them so much that they almost ran away.
"Village Chief Xilu, it's me, Luo Ling."
"You, you, you...are you a demon or a soul?"
"Of course it's a demon. I'm fine, look."
As he spoke, Ling Tian released a butterfly with black wings. "It has no ill intentions and is very friendly to me. It even signed a magical pet contract with me."
"What?"
"How is this possible?"
Xilu and the others were extremely shocked. This was a third-level demon beast. Even the adults from the upper demon tribe who came here every year to collect taxes were not so powerful.
These were naturally directed by Ling Tian and the Hallucinogenic Butterfly. It was very easy to deceive these small demons who were not even at the Foundation Establishment stage.
"Great, great! The Demon Emperor has shown favor to us. Our Damolo Village has hope..."
As Xilu spoke, tears welled up on her face, and so did the other tribesmen, which made Lingtian feel embarrassed.
"Holy Demon Envoy!"
"The Holy Demon Envoy..."
More than ten demons suddenly knelt down to Ling Tian, very pious. Ling Tian understood what they meant by the Holy Demon Envoy. It was their spiritual yearning.
At this moment, Ling Tian actually underwent a slight change. He actually felt the power of their faith.
"Is this all right?"
