Chapter 13: Reputation Explosion!
The news that the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land was selling low-grade magical artifacts spread throughout all the immortal cities and markets in no time. This news alone was shocking enough. After all, the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land was one of the four major Sacred Lands. Every item displayed in their shops was a high-quality product. Even when selling magical artifacts, they only offered top-quality artifacts with powerful functions that were one in ten thousand. How could they possibly sell low-grade artifacts?
Even more explosive news followed. The low-grade magical artifacts from the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land were actually being sold for a whopping mid-grade spirit stone. This was even more outrageous! A mid-grade spirit stone could buy a top-grade magical artifact. How could a low-grade artifact be sold for this price? Had they gone mad?
The news spread rapidly, and many people initially didnt believe it. It was a Sacred Land, after all a major power that countless cultivators dreamed of joining. How could they have fallen to the point of selling magical artifacts?
However, when they rushed to investigate, they found that it was indeed true. The Heavenly Origin Pavilions in the major immortal cities and markets were genuinely selling a low-grade magical artifact called the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator, and its price was indeed a mid-grade spirit stone.
These cultivators naturally didnt dare to make a scene in front of the Heavenly Origin Pavilion. However, behind the scenes, they were all discussing the matter like crazy. A prestigious Sacred Land is actually selling low-grade magical artifacts. Its so disappointing. Is this the level of our Great Yan Provinces Sacred Land?
I heard earlier that there was an accident in the Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands Creek Secret Realm. It seems to be true now.
Its so humiliating. Our eight major families dont even bother with the low-grade magical artifact business, and the esteemed Sacred Land is actually worse than our Zhang family.
The most important thing is that a low-grade magical artifact is being sold for a mid-grade spirit stone. You may have a long-standing heritage, Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, but do you think were fools for daring to sell a low-grade magical artifact at such a high price?
Ive heard that the previous Saint Master of the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land was someone who only knew how to cultivate and couldnt manage the sect affairs. It seems that the new Saint Master, Ye, is the same. Otherwise, how could such a laughable incident happen within the Sacred Land?
The functionality of the low-grade magical artifact, as described by the attendant, is simply insulting to our understanding as artifact refiners.
It can supposedly connect the entire cultivation world and penetrate the isolation of secret realms. If you said that a top-grade treasure crafted by your Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands artifact refining grandmaster had this functionality, I might believe it a little. But how could a low-grade magical artifact achieve this? Are you trying to fool ghosts?
I tried it out, and it does work. However, I think it can only communicate within a range of a hundred miles.
You can buy ten communication talismans for a single low-grade spirit stone. Only a madman would spend a mid-grade spirit stone on a low-grade magical artifact.
Moreover, it seems that the magical artifact can only be used for a year. After that, if you want to continue using it, you have to pay again. Has the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land gone mad with greed? Theyve already sold the magical artifact, and they still want to collect money every year?
Rumors were swirling everywhere. The other three major Sacred Lands couldnt help but laugh when they received the news. Everyone was watching the Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands embarrassing situation.
Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
Saint Master Peak.
The elders within the Sacred Land gathered once again.
However, everyone was frowning, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
How could this be? We only sold so little on the first day. This shouldnt be happening! Elder Wang said, listening to the sales report from the external affairs department.
The Sacred Land had distributed Little Spirit Communicator rings to the shopkeepers of various major stores.
These rings allowed them to report sales to the sect at any time, offering unmatched convenience.
This was the convenience brought by the Little Spirit Communicator rings.
But the problem was that the sales of the Little Spirit Communicator rings exceeded everyones expectations.
Elder Wang initially thought that the 300,000 Little Spirit Communicator rings would be in high demand and might sell out within half a day.
What was the result?
In a single day, only 6,000 Little Spirit Communicator rings were sold, with an average of about 30 rings sold per store.
This was far from their expectations.
All the elders furrowed their brows.
However, Ye Chen, who sat on the Saint Masters throne, had anticipated this number and didnt frown. Instead, he calmly spoke to the elders, Why worry so much, esteemed elders? Selling 6,000 rings on the first day is already a good achievement.
Ye Chens composed attitude surprised the elders.
Elder Wang, somewhat anxious, said, But our Little Spirit Communicator rings are so excellent in functionality, and the price is so low.
How could we only sell 6,000 rings?
Ye Chen raised a finger, Its normal. Dont trust what you hear; trust what you see.
Werent you all skeptical at first too? It was only after Elder Wang tested the rings 500,000 miles away that you all believed.
Even the knowledgeable elders of the Sacred Land couldnt believe it initially.
So its normal for outsiders not to believe.
Selling 6,000 rings is already beyond my expectations.
Ye Chen wasnt lying.
Just like in his previous life, no matter how excellent a new technology was, few people saw its potential when it first appeared.
The initial sales were always dismal.
It wasnt until more people used it and word of mouth spread that sales exploded.
And their Little Spirit Communicator rings were no exception.
Even if they were one of the four Sacred Lands, people wouldnt just believe everything they said.
So, they had to wait patiently for word of mouth to explode.
True gold feared no fire.
Once the cultivators learned the true effect of the Little Spirit Communicator rings, those who scoffed now would scramble to buy them later.
Ye Chens words made sense, and many elders nodded.
However, the elder in charge of external affairs was still somewhat anxious, May I ask, Saint Master, when will word of mouth explode?
Elder Wang also spoke up, Since we cant sell them for now, should we temporarily reduce the production of the communication rings? We can increase production once word of mouth explodes.
Hearing their words, Ye Chen shook his head helplessly.
Under these circumstances, they should take advantage of this time to stock up, preparing for the upcoming sales boom.
How could they reduce production just because sales were poor now?
If they resumed production only when sales exploded, they would miss out on a lot of spirit stones.
Sure enough, even though the cultivation world valued spirit stones, they prioritized cultivation.
Even the elders responsible for external affairs had a poor sense of business. Relying on the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, they previously had exclusive products like the Immortal Peach Leaf. If they had established a Heavenly Origin Pavilion membership, members could enjoy priority purchasing of Immortal Peach Leaves and a 99% discount on spirit stone recharges. The business of the Heavenly Origin Pavilion could at least double. However, Ye Chen couldnt ask for too much.
With a casual wave of his hand, Ye Chen said, Dont worry, whether it takes a week or a month, our reputation will certainly explode. As for the production of the Little Spirit Communicator rings, we must not fall behind, maintaining a daily output of 100,000.
The production cost of the Little Spirit Communicator rings isnt high, so even if we produce more, it wont have a significant impact on our Sacred Lands finances. Elder Wang, theres no need to worry.
Ye Chens prestige within the Sacred Land was not insignificant, and since he had made the decision, no one questioned it further. However, all the elders paid special attention to the sales of the Little Spirit Communicator rings. So, on the second day, when the sales reports from various shops came in, they all rushed to inquire, hoping to hear the news of the Little Spirit Communicator rings reputation exploding.
On the contrary, Ye Chen, the Saint Master, didnt care about the sales of the Little Spirit Communicator rings at all. Every day, apart from comprehending the secrets of the fighting characters, he would go to the forbidden area of the Sacred Land to study immortal artifacts and explore new functions. At other times, he would enjoy watching the sea of clouds, observing the great sun, fishing for spirit fish, and living a comfortable life.
As for cultivation? With Ye Chens pay-to-win cultivation system, there was no need for him to cultivate. Once he earned enough money, he could simply pay to win and achieve a perfect breakthrough, couldnt he?
When the total sales of the Little Spirit Communicator rings on the second day were seen, the elders of the Sacred Land furrowed their brows even deeper. Even Ye Chen, upon seeing the sales, revealed an interesting expression
