Chapter 218 Large-Scale Acquisition
hed, and we lost control, the consequences would be unimaginable.These things are lessons learned in blood.After many powers were destroyed or severely weakened, the remaining forces finally convened...After the Xuan Yang Finger landed in Bei Ming Wang's hands, the martial arts auctioned afterwards were just a few remaining high-grade Grandmaster-level martial arts.
These martial arts.
As for power, it's actually not much different from the Xuan Yang Finger.
The problem is.
Shen Changqing's true mastery lay solely in the Xuan Yang Finger. Other high-grade master martial arts remained at an uninitiated stage and were thus incapable of demonstration.
It cannot be demonstrated.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then it's inevitable that prices will drop.
So.
The transaction price of Xuan Yang, became the ceiling for high-grade masters' martial arts.
After this, no martial arts auction ever surpassed this price.
Even so.
Shen Changqing also showed a smiling face throughout the process.
There's no way.
He earned so much, completely exceeding his expectations. It's hard not to be happy.
After the last martial arts school was auctioned off to a sect, this auction officially ended.
The auction has ended.
After that, he had nothing to do with it.
As for receiving payment, everything is handled by Yuanyang Auction House.
Inside the inner hall.
Shen Changqing sat for about half an hour before Yu Sheng hurried in from outside, followed by a few people. Each person was holding a box of medium size, as well as several jade boxes.
With a look, he signaled them to put the things down.
Yuansheng then cupped his hands and said, "Master Shen, this auction is now completely over. All the proceeds from the auction are here. I wonder if Master Shen would like to check them"
"There's no need to count, just tell me the total."
Shen Changqing glanced at the several boxes and shook his head slightly.
There's no need to count.
He believed Yuansheng wouldn't dare to embezzle his money either.

If that were truly done, not even just the Yuanyang Auction House, but the entire Yuan family would be uprooted by the Demon Suppression Division.

As long as the other party isn't an idiot, they couldn't possibly do something so self-destructive.
Yuansheng said, "The total amount of silver that Lord Shen auctioned this time was six million two hundred thousand taels. Among them, the spirit fruits such as Qingyue Divine Spirit Fruit were discounted by one million eight hundred thousand taels. In total, it amounted to eighty million taels of silver!"
>
Six million two hundred thousand silver notes.
1,800,000 spirit fruits.
But no one sold demons, because no sect held demons captive, except for the Liang and Yue dynasties.
Both sides are already willing to offer several high-level demon heads in exchange for the breakthrough method of the Grandmaster. If they continue to use demons for trade afterwards, the consumption will be too great.

So.
Some people used spirit fruit treasures to trade, but no one traded with demons.
"Six million two hundred thousand taels, not bad!"
Sheng Changqing heard the number and nodded in satisfaction.
Adding the spirit fruit, that would be 80 million taels.
This time, besides his divine abilities, he practically threw out all of his martial arts skills.
The results were also very pleasing.
Eighty million taels, is already an astonishingly wealthy level of assets.
Besides the imperial court.
Shen Changqing couldn't think of anyone richer than himself.
With so much silver, the things he needed to do next became much simpler.
Immediately.
He then looked at Yuansheng and said in a deep voice, “I want to buy a large amount of Zhenmosi’s meritorious service. Yuan Patriarch, can you give me a price”
"Mass acquisition of merit"
Yuansheng was taken aback, then confirmed again.
"Mr. Shen, about how much do you intend to acquire"
The more the merrier.
"That's how it is..."
Yuan Sheng fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he came back to his senses.
"Let me be frank, the Demon Suppression Division sets different prices for meritorious service depending on various factors. If you require a large number of merits within a short timeframe, the price will undoubtedly be significantly higher."
If Mr. Shen is not in a hurry, he can wait a little longer to purchase, and the price could be lowered considerably.
That brings us to this point.
Yuan Sheng paused for a moment and then continued.
But Lord Shen also understands that even if we acquire a little bit more, the supply of merit on the market will decrease, and prices will inevitably rise. So all I can decide is to offer three hundred taels of silver for every point of merit.

Is this price acceptable to the adults
300 taels!
Upon hearing this price, Shen Changqing nodded.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
The price Yuan Sheng gave is quite a good deal.
>
Last time he received two thousand merit points, the Yuan Yang auction house was collecting four hundred and fifty taels one point. Now it's three hundred points, obviously his reputation is playing a role in it.
Immediately.
He is responding.
"Then, at the price of three hundred taels per point, I will take 200,000 points of merit. I wonder how long it will take Master Yuan"
Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!
"20,000 meritorious deeds!"
Yuan Sheng was shocked.
He originally thought Shen Changqing would receive a lot of merit, but at most it would only be one or two thousand.
To my surprise, the other party opened with a request for 200,000 units of merit.
in an instant.
Yuansheng reacted and wore a wry smile.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
“Lord Shen, I’m afraid I can’t answer that request. Twenty thousand meritorious deeds are truly too many. Even if the Demon Suppression Division released all of its publicized meritorious deeds, it wouldn’t add up to twenty thousand.”
>
If it's just a little bit of acquisition, it would take at least ten years to get everything.
"So long"
Shen Changqing's brow furrowed.
Ten years, still the least, this is beyond his estimation.
For fear of displeasing the other party.
>
Yuan Sheng hurriedly explained: “I hope Master Shen can understand, it’s not that I haven’t done my best, but the achievements released by the Demon Suppression Division are inherently small. Last time when Master Shen purchased two thousand achievements, it already took a lot of effort.”
Now that we're acquiring 200,000, it will naturally take longer.

If there really are that many merits circulating on the market, then I won't say much. In a few days, I can help you collect them all.
There are few circulating talents in the market, and even with our Yuan family's extensive resources, we are powerless.
Yuan Sheng's explanation.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Chen Changqing also understood.
When the other party finished speaking, he shook his head. “Ten years is too long. If it were a year, how much credit could Patriarch Yuan help me acquire”
Now, merit is the thing Shen Changqing lacks the most.
He has proof of slaying demons, but lacks the merit to exchange it.
We'll wait for the follow-up.

Daliang and Dàyuè could still bring ten high-level demon lords.

Having slain those demons, another batch of exchange vouchers were obtained.
Although the number of high-level demons imprisoned in the National Capital Demon Sealing Tower was not large, it was still a considerable amount. Shen Changqing was very covetous of this.
If you are able to make contributions, things will be much simpler.
On hearing this.
Yuan Sheng pondered for a moment: "In a year's time, I can guarantee that I will at least collect around 20,000 military merits for Lord Shen. If luck is on our side, collecting 30,000 is also possible, but no more than that."
“Alright, I’ll leave behind ten million silver notes. Master Yuan, please collect as much merit as possible for me.”
This is a response to your request.
Shen Changqing nodded.
Ten million taels, it's not surprising to earn 33,000 military merits.
Now that he had money, ten million taels spent wouldn't even make him flinch.
"No problem."
Yuan Sheng readily agreed.
This matter is not a big challenge for Yuanyang Auction House.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Then.
Shen Changqing continued, "As for the other five million two hundred thousand taels of silver, I'll leave them all in your auction house to purchase demonic creatures. However, the price of these demonic creatures will be set according to my standards."
"Lord Shen, please speak."
“Specters of all ranks, regardless of their strength, cost 10,000 taels of silver. Vengeful specters cost 100,000 taels in the early stage, 200,000 taels in the middle stage, and 300,000 taels in the late stage and peak stage.”
As for the price of a Sha level, it's one million taels in the initial stage, two million taels in the middle stage, and three million taels for both the later stage and the peak.
Shen Changqing said calmly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Phantom-level monsters, regardless of their strength, don't differ much in terms of the merit points they grant. The difference in spiritual power they bestow is negligible.
So he was too lazy to bother, and just priced everything at 10,000 taels.
After reaching the Grandmaster level, there was a noticeable difference between the three stages after junior high. However, the gap with the peak wasn't that significant later on. At least, the contribution of killing points wasn't much different, and there was some variation in mental strength, but it was negligible for a true Grandmaster.
And the killing intent, it was also like this.
So.
Shen Changqing's offer was based entirely on the number of kill points given, not on the high or low level of mental strength.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Generally speaking.
A peak-level price is considerably higher than a late-stage one.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
But in his eyes, paying extra was a complete waste of money. After all, the killing value given by Peak wasn't that much higher than later on, and paying extra would just be a blood loss.
Yuan Sheng said, "Price is not a problem, but if Shen DaRen sets such a high price, then I'm afraid few people will sell those resentment-level and evil-level peak monsters."
Prices remain unchanged, but risks increase.
Very few people would engage in such a loss-making transaction.
Shen Changqing's expression remained calm: "Not much, not much. Patriarch Yuan, just follow my request. Once a month for a period of one month, I will come once and take away those acquired demons."
"If I don't come, just keep the items at the auction house for now and I'll come pick them up when I have time."
That's all.
Yùnshèng didn't consider anything, but nodded in agreement.
"Alright, then let's set a month as the deadline. Sir Shen can come once a month to collect it. If that's inconvenient, I can also help store it. Whenever Sir Shen has time, just come over."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Well then, thank you."
Shen Changqing stood up.

"Shen Mou still has other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first."
"Lord Shen, please take your leave. These spirit fruits are treasures, I will have someone deliver them to the Demon Suppressing Division later, so Lord Shen won't have to trouble himself with it."
"Good."
After sending Shen Changqing away, Yuan Sheng returned to the inner hall and immediately called someone over, pointing to the spiritual fruit treasure placed there.
"Deploy your most skilled agents to transport all these items safely to the Demon Suppression Division and hand them over to Shen Changqing, the commander in charge. Ensure there are no leaks or accidents, or you will be severely punished!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Yes!"
Those at the Yuanyang Auction House all responded respectfully.
Seeing them take things away, Yuansheng finally smiled.
This time, my Yuan family's reputation is considered thoroughly established. From now on, we will focus on digesting and transforming it into our Yuan family's strength.
After the auction ended, Yuan Yang Auction House's reputation was bound to spread even wider, and the Yuan family's prestige would undoubtedly soar.
If Yuanjia helps Shen Changqing acquire things, it's impossible that they wouldn't benefit at all.
The head of the Yuan family was quite satisfied with this.hances of victory.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!Heaven's Sect.After subduing the six divine lords, Shen Changqing did not directly pursue and forcefully enter the Divine...
