CHAPTER 1103: CHAPTER 341: "EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN PATH.

At this time, using such treasures to raise one’s upper limits and reach new heights, if the quantity of these treasures is somewhat more and luck is a bit better, one could even elevate a Great Realm.

Generally speaking.

These treasures are not used to speed up cultivation progress; they are purely to raise the upper limit of potential.

Of course, this is just in theory. In practice, if you possess a sufficient amount of these treasures, you can greatly enhance your cultivation progress by consuming them as you see fit.

During the ten years when Chen Qiu was unaware of this information, Jiang Buping truly felt dreadfully bored and somewhat didn’t know how to arrange his next steps.

Just at this moment—

There came a quite lively sound of drumming from Central State City.

He turned his head and looked; it was the Central State City Lord, who was starting to warm up for the upcoming tenth Ascension Conference.

Mentioning this Central State City Lord, he couldn’t help but feel a bit admiring. Over the years, he had hardly admired anyone, the old Sect Master of Chao Tian Sect counted as the first, Chen Qiu as the second, and this City Lord as the third.

After Chen Qiu’s Ascension Conference ended, this City Lord organized his own "Ascension Conference," once a year.

The first conference naturally didn’t have anyone showing up.

Everyone was busy; they had to cultivate in seclusion daily, and hardly had time to attend any private organization’s Ascension Conference. However, the City Lord was not in a rush; he simply sent invitations to every faction.

When the first Ascension Conference concluded, the rewards and opportunities offered quickly spread out and alerted all factions.

The richness of the rewards was unimaginable.

Of course, it couldn’t match Chen Qiu’s Ascension Conference, but it had already far exceeded the rewards given by regular faction-hosted activities, almost taking half of Central State City’s entire foundation as rewards.

The first Ascension Conference didn’t see many factions participating, but ended up being an opportunity for a small faction named "Prince Wei Mansion" to grab the biggest chance.

In the second Ascension Conference, the number of attendees increased, more factions came, gradually growing, and by the time of the tenth conference, though it still couldn’t match Chen Qiu’s Ascension Conference in scale, popularity, and richness of rewards, it indeed became increasingly vibrant.

It had already become the largest private faction-hosted event in the Tidal Immortal Realm.

Typical faction-hosted events cannot attract so many top factions to participate.

Every year when winter comes.

Countless top factions send their Heavenly Prides under the leadership of elders to participate, not only for the Ascension Conference but also to experience the world, serving as a form of training, so why not enjoy it.

In fact, all top factions share a demand: letting their Heavenly Prides meet more people and interact with Heavenly Prides from other factions.

But in practice, there are rarely opportunities to gather so many Heavenly Prides together.

The Ascension Conference achieved this.

Thus, the momentum of the Ascension Conference truly started to build up in Central State City, and the discussion popularity over the years even exceeded the original Ascension Conference, after all, the next original conference was scheduled ten thousand years later, which wasn’t something they should concern themselves with.

He felt this person was indeed a talent.

Exceedingly bold.

After all, based on his investigation into Central State City, in these ten years, Central State City almost went bankrupt doing this thing, even though the Ascension Conference was getting livelier, Central State City hadn’t earned a penny, every year’s entire income was converted into rewards for the next year’s conference, purely spending to create excitement as if doing charity.

Including that "Immortal Cemetery" of Central State City, which he was also very interested in.

As long as the body is buried in this cemetery, it can be resurrected after ten thousand years, such a good thing, to put the old Chao Tian Sect to rest here, after ten thousand years they will all be alive, but he always felt that this cemetery went against human nature.

The one needing this thing isn’t the consumer.

The one spending doesn’t need this thing, and everyone is reluctant to spend a large amount of Spirit Stone to exchange for the resurrection of their relatives or mentors in ten thousand years, after all, they can’t live up to that time, can’t see that scene, selfishly speaking, does resurrection make any sense to themselves?

While burning through a large amount of Spirit Stone now has a greater impact.

This is the essence of the problem, this results in the Immortal Cemetery being extremely scarce, yet it’s hard to sell at a sufficiently high price.

A person often doing good deeds is seen as a good thing, praised by everyone, but if the good deeds can only be effective ten thousand years later, during this period no one knows what this person has done, and it costs a large amount of cost, these good deeds are hard to continue.

To do good is necessarily for fame.

If someone does good deeds without seeking fame and profit, then the only pursuit can be something, like... peace of mind.

Purely empathetic good deeds can be done temporarily, not lifelong.

A lifelong philanthropist certainly pursues fame and fortune, or is someone who starts to repent in the latter half of life after being utterly wicked.

However, the Central State City Lord used an extremely clever promotional strategy, changing the cemetery’s predicament, aligning the identities of the consumer and the beneficiary, the resurrected person ten thousand years later truly cannot see themselves; the things done are completely unseen, but can allow others to see.
