After the tribulation, the oppressive force dissipated, allowing the chaotic sea to return to calm.
With Meng Fan's current cultivation level, the only way to make rapid progress is to draw lots of prizes and win by quantity. Even the immortal crystals from two or three worlds are not worth drawing once.
Therefore, Meng Fan also made a plan. He wanted to set up a presence in the Kunwu Sea and try to gather all the immortal crystals of the 130,000 worlds within the sea. This would be quite a promising endeavor.
The elders of Yunxiao Palace need not worry about their cultivation level falling behind.
With the Immortal Cloud Holy Land created by Meng Fan, they will have no problem cultivating to the Primordial Chaos level.
However, they will have to leave the Qingxuan World after entering the Hunyuan realm, since the Qingxuan World has not yet grown up and cannot accommodate several Hunyuan realm beings at the same time.
This was exactly what Meng Fan was thinking. Why should his subordinates, who had all reached the Hunyuan level, stay cooped up in the Immortal Cloud Holy Land? Of course, the key was to make the best use of their talents and send them out to cause trouble.
"I haven't been back for about two thousand years. I wonder if the battle between Bibei and Lingshan Jun has ended."
Meng Fan had never taken the two of them seriously. Although they were both quasi-saints, they weren't even worthy of carrying his shoes.
They were nothing more than tools for Meng Fan to amuse himself.
Before long, Meng Fan returned to the entrance of World Thirty-Eight. Although it was less than a saint's year away from the Evil God World and the Extreme Mountain World, it was right in front of Meng Fan, and his divine sense was enough to cover this area.
In the void, Bibei and Lingshan Jun fought for over a thousand years.
The two exchanged blows, evenly matched, and were too familiar with each other. They fought like they were in a boxing ring, with no sign of fighting desperately.
They had been fighting for over a thousand years and knew that the other was no weaker than themselves, making it extremely difficult to kill him.
Even if they could kill the other, they would inevitably pay a heavy price, making it a losing proposition. Therefore, the two were only trying to stall the other, and the outcome of the war was entirely up to their subordinates.
They would never have imagined that their top generals were loyal to Liu Bei but secretly plotted against them.
Over the years, Zhou Qi and Wu Dong have made a fortune, not only sweeping up all the immortal crystals in their own world, but also the immortal crystals in nearby worlds.
At this moment, Zhou Qi sat upright in the hall, and below him was the Ni family, a major family in the world of evil gods.
"Clan Chief Ni, the situation at the front is critical. Your son was already on the conscription list and is going to serve the Evil God. This is something to be happy about."
Chief Ni said with a smile, "Seventh Prince, you are busy with many affairs of state. You did not know that my son is a good-for-nothing. He has not yet entered the Immortal Realm, which is why he cannot serve the Evil God. I am ashamed. I beg Seventh Prince to investigate."
After saying that, he handed over a spatial ring.
Zhou Qi subtly swept his divine sense across the area and saw that it was filled with countless immortal crystals, numbering at least tens of millions.
Zhou Qi nodded and said, "Well, since your young master hasn't reached the Immortal Realm yet, he should stay home and cultivate diligently."
Seeing that the matter was settled, Chief Ni did not linger any longer. He stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and quickly left the main hall.
After he left, his subordinates reported that the head of the Wang family was waiting outside.
Zhou Qi rubbed his temples, looking somewhat tired, and asked, "How many people are still outside?"
"Your Excellency, there are ten more people, all of whom are high-ranking officials, nobles, or extremely wealthy families."
"Okay, let them come in one by one."
Zhou Qi now lives a simple and unpretentious life every day.
Because he oversees all military and political affairs in the world of evil gods, his power is boundless!
Bibei and Lingshan Jun have been locked in a stalemate for over a thousand years and have not returned. He spends Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays on the front lines fighting against Yang Yi, Yang Er, and Yang San. Therefore, he holds absolute power in the world of evil gods.
Zhou Qi's methods of amassing wealth are endless and varied, but one thing he is renowned for is his excellent reputation. You could say that as long as you give him immortal crystals, Zhou Qi will definitely be able to settle things for you; taking money to do things is perfectly justified.
This made Zhou Qi even easier to approach. Although he was greedy by nature, no one spoke ill of him. These merchants and powerful families mingled with Zhou Qi, and despite it being wartime, a thriving atmosphere naturally arose.
Zhou Qi also proactively shared the profits of the Zhou Wan Chamber of Commerce with those powerful figures, allowing them to continuously reap the wealth of the entire Evil God World, thus making them even more supportive of Zhou Qi.
Zhou Wan Chamber of Commerce originally had Bi Bei backing it up, monopolizing various industries and becoming a unicorn-like existence in the world of evil gods.
Although others were envious, they dared not step forward to compete because of Zhou Yi and Chi Feiwan's strength.
These people hadn't expected Zhou Qi to give up such a large portion of his profits, allowing them to participate, which initially made them somewhat incredulous.
However, as time went by, those forces that got a share of the pie not only did not suffer any retaliation from Zhou Qi, but their relationship even became closer.
This attracted more forces to participate, and with their involvement, the economy of the evil god world increased more than tenfold in a short period of time.
Zhou Qi smiled as he observed the changing world. By giving up a portion of the Zhou Wan Chamber of Commerce's profits, he was simply allowing these powerful forces to better reap the wealth of the Evil Gods from all over the world. Then, he would reap the benefits from these powerful forces, creating a virtuous cycle.
After a dull day of work, Zhou Qi returned to the secret room.
Use a secret technique to transmit today's harvest to the Azure Mystic World.
Suddenly, he was jolted awake; he had actually received a telepathic message from Meng Fan!
“Well done. I have attained the Primordial Dao and have now emerged from seclusion. Arrange your affairs and then come to the Immortal Cloud Holy Land in the Azure Profound World to hear my teachings.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qi excitedly stood up, bowed repeatedly to the void, and then appeared in the main hall.
"Quickly, summon the two kings back and have everyone gather in my main hall for a meeting!"
After everyone arrived, Zhou Qi's mind raced, and he said, "My spies have already discovered that Wu Dong of the Extreme Mountain World has fully recovered from his injuries. I imagine he will definitely launch a sneak attack on our forces. To be absolutely certain, I must go to the front lines myself."
His words shocked everyone.
"Seventh Prince, who will take our orders after you leave?"
"I have summoned the two kings back. You will follow his orders. He will oversee all matters, big and small, in the world of evil gods on my behalf. You will each be mindful of your duties and behave yourselves. If I find anyone who has been disobedient since I left, they will no longer be valid."
Zhou Qi hurriedly gave a few instructions, then turned and disappeared.
To outsiders, his anxiety stemmed from his deep concern for the safety of the battlefield, and his reluctance to delay even for a moment.
"The Seven Kings truly care about the entire world of evil gods."
"The righteousness of the Seven Kings is beyond our reach!"
"To be honest, apart from being a bit greedy, the Seventh Prince is practically a saint!"
"What nonsense are you spouting? The Seventh Prince is a man of exceptional talent and ability, who leads by example, governs the country effectively, and is truly outstanding. He deliberately reveals his greed to let us know how close he is to us. How could such a virtuous man be someone who loves money?"
