Chapter 1994: Chapter 71: Dao Treasure Workshop
Even if one perishes, they can forcefully change the appearance of such an astounding area.
Such a great power, how does it compare with this Sea Market?
Human power, does it really have to be weaker than the Realm Sea...
Perhaps, one must reach an extremely high stage to achieve it.
"Immortal..."
Amidst silence brought by shock, the Treasure Raft flew over the edge of the gigantic ’horn,’ gradually heading towards the depths of the horn.
As the distance gradually closed, the scene in the depths of the ’horn’ also gradually became clearer.
Near the narrow end of the ’horn,’ a massive wooden architectural complex, extremely similar to the tower pattern on the map ring, silently floated in the Void.
On it, there were vast empty spaces, faintly visible were houses rising from the ground.
"This place is jointly organized by various forces, including the Three Realms, Nine Heavenly Palace, and some forces, though not famous, are not to be underestimated. They hold the market. To enter, one must pay a fee. Inside, all transactions are protected as long as there’s notarization..."
The Corpse-digging Ghost King introduced to Wang Ba with familiarity.
Wang Ba nodding with understanding.
The forces involved in this Sea Market are numerous, the interests within must be astonishing as well. Even though the Three Realms and many forces may not agree with each other, none bear enmity with profit.
"So what is used to pay the fees?"
Wang Ba asked with some curiosity.
"Barter, or exchange for tokens at the market entrance. A most ordinary Innate Dao Treasure can generally be exchanged for a hundred thousand tokens. If we park the Flying Artifact here, the fee is usually fifty thousand tokens. If a Cultivator enters alone, they only need a thousand tokens. These tokens can be exchanged for commonly used Elixirs or Talismans when leaving the market, or kept for use the next time the Sea Market opens."
The Corpse-digging Ghost King carefully explained.
Wang Ba slightly raised his eyebrows, isn’t this equivalent to holding the pricing power tightly?
"So many forces, are they all willing to accept this?"
The Corpse-digging Ghost King shook his head: "If not, they just don’t enter the market, no one intervenes in private trades. But if they’re deceived, they can only blame themselves. The treasures obtained from inside the Sea Market, no one can really say for sure about their quality... I’ll go pay the parking fee first."
Wang Ba paused lightly, looked up, and saw that they were already close to the market here.
But from afar, special beacons could be seen, where large Flying Artifacts were positioned in sequence on these beacons.
Vaguely, one could see some Cultivators directing things.
In the Outer Realm, aside from some Innate Dao Treasures with space capability, ordinary Storage Treasures are mostly ineffective. Most Cultivators usually refine items into their Primordial Spirit for storage.
Some also refine a separate space within their Dao Domain to store treasures.
However, if the Dao Domain collapses, it may indirectly cause this space to shatter, so generally, not many items are placed inside.
Large Flying Artifacts are not difficult to store, but the large quantity of goods loaded inside aren’t easily stored.
The forces coming here need to trade many items, often requiring the use of large Flying Artifacts for transport.
The Corpse-digging Ghost King swiftly flew out to meet the commanding Cultivators.
It was unclear what he took out, but soon the special beacon in front of their Treasure Raft lit up.
Wang Ba need not do anything; the Vine Grinding Ghost King adeptly maneuvered the Treasure Raft to stop.
He simultaneously explained:
"Though it’s called a market, it’s quite large. The Corpse-digging Ghost King already rented a warehouse, so our stuff will go straight there."
Wang Ba nodded.
Most of what was stored on the Treasure Raft were items from the Red Sky Palace treasury including two Mid-grade Innate Dao Treasures and over a dozen lower-grade ones, aside from a few Wang Ba deemed useful, he brought them all this time.
As for items from the Little Cang World, he stored those separately.
Though he doesn’t possess an Innate Dao Treasure with storage ability, the Red Sky Palace had one, which he borrowed to store many Little Cang World specialties.
Using items from the Red Sky Palace as cover to secretly sell Little Cang World specialties unnoticed was their initial plan for coming to the Sea Market.
Transporting the goods also didn’t require Wang Ba’s personal involvement.
The Five Ghost Kings, Yun Qi, and others each dragged giant wooden boxes, with various prohibitions placed on them to prevent prying eyes.
A group, along with these goods, disembarked from the Treasure Raft.
They didn’t attract much attention, for there were about a dozen other teams disembarking from Flying Artifacts at the same time, differing only in numbers and goods.
The goods brought by Wang Ba and others were among the few in these teams.
Some disembarking from Treasure Rafts were hundreds of times more numerous than Wang Ba’s team.
After the Corpse-digging Ghost King’s explanation, he then understood that all were attempting to reduce entry fees, hence these small forces deliberately combined to enter with shared Flying Artifacts.
These forces often don’t have any foothold, drifting in the Sea of Chaos Realm, typically the lowest in the Sea of Chaos Realm.
And these forces are the majority in the Sea of Chaos Realm.
The docking area was some distance from the market, perhaps due to the fear of others noticing their goods, they all flew over quickly.
Wang Ba, empty-handed, didn’t remain idle, diligently observing the surrounding flow of people.
