Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 380 - 12 The Demon King Appears
Chapter 380: Chapter 12 The Demon King Appears
Space Transmission Array—Wang Sheng hadn’t spent a particularly long time researching it, so there were still many imperfections that needed more information to refine, much like the Spirit World.
Only by using it could one gather more information and then make improvements.
So Wang Sheng approached the current village head, Li Yongfeng.
“Brother Yongfeng, where do people from Qingshan Village most frequently go?” To gather more usage experience, one needed to use it often.
“?” Although Li Yongfeng was somewhat puzzled, he replied, “Currently, I would say the Taiping Sect in Zhongwuzhou!”
“…Somewhere closer, within the territory of Shuzhou.” Zhongwuzhou was far beyond the distance of the Teleportation Array, which was still new and needed his supervision, not suitable for placing too many.
Once the Teleportation Array matured, it could indeed be set up consecutively.
“That would be Jiangyuan City.”
Jiangyuan City, three to four hundred kilometers from Qingshan Village. Although it exceeded the transmission distance of the array, it could still save fifty percent of the journey, which was quite suitable.
“What are you asking this for?”
“I have a way to instantly transport people from Qingshan Village to a place two hundred kilometers from Jiangyuan City.”
“?” Li Yongfeng didn’t catch on until Wang Sheng explained.
“Yun Sheng, are you serious?” Li Yongfeng was still bewildered; this was entirely beyond his imagination.
Instant travel to a location two hundred kilometers away—he dared not even think about it.
“Of course, I just came to ask where exactly you think we should choose the location!”
Naturally, one end of the Teleportation Array would be in Qingshan Village, while the other end had to be selected with great caution. Even though the array wasn’t easily destroyed, it still needed to be guarded.
“I’ll study it!”
Li Yongfeng knew this was a significant matter.
He understood what Wang Sheng was asking, which was now to determine the specific location.
Time quickly passed, and a few days later.
Li Yongfeng had decided on the location, directed towards Jiangyuan City, specifically next to the Yuelai Inn.
In fact, that place was in the wilderness, but the Yuelai Inn wasn’t just situated within the city.
The wilderness was also an important business point, especially on the main traffic routes.
That inn’s location, frequented by martial artists from Qingshan Village on their way to Jiangyuan City, was a common resting spot.
Crucially, Li Yongfeng also knew the identity of Zhu Xiao, aware that the Yuelai Inn was trustworthy.
People from Qingshan Village had already gone there, including a Grandmaster to guard it.
When installing the Teleportation Array, practically everyone from the village participated.
“It’s said that this can instantly take us more than four hundred li away, and that’s in a straight line, is that true?”
This matter was far beyond imagination.
“Wang Sheng brought this out, what do you think?”
Suddenly, no one spoke; Wang Sheng had already created too many miracles.
Zhu Xiao and Yue were actually more shocked than the villagers because only they truly understood how terrifying this was.
“To what extent can you really go, Immortal?”
Four hundred li, for Zhu Xiao who had already surpassed her past limits, wasn’t much. But even she couldn’t achieve instant travel, especially allowing ordinary people to do it as well.
She felt she still knew too little about Wang Sheng, never sure what he might bring out next.
Yue knew that Wang Sheng was using an array for this, so he was even more curious.
“Indeed, Wang Sheng’s choice was not mistaken. The potential of the array is strong, and its study of the universe and Stargazing Skill have something in common that can be mutually verified…”
Yue had no intention of abandoning his heritage. Upon seeing the array, he spotted some of its mysteries.
Soon, Wang Sheng began setting up the array.
Outsiders watch the excitement; insiders watch the essence—only Yue could slightly understand.
“…Let’s just earnestly enhance the array!”
He recognized some knowledge in the array that he couldn’t yet employ, utterly beyond his understanding.
After setting up inside Qingshan Village, it was time for the external array.
The people guarding it rotated, with the first group being led by Wang Shuwen, naturally, the staff from Yuelai Inn would also help.
Zhu Xiao had already informed them that, regardless if the staff at Yuelai Inn understood what was happening, they would do their utmost to assist.
Soon, the array activated.
Wang Sheng no longer used Sword Flight to return but directly utilized the array and instantly appeared back inside Qingshan Village.
“Yun Sheng, is it complete?”
“It’s ready, let’s first arrange for some people to try it with me.”
Initially, he planned to accompany them.
“Okay!”
Soon, Li Yongfeng arranged for two people, including a martial artist and a commoner.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
“Let’s add two more, Zhu Xiao and Yue.”
The Teleportation Array had its limits; the current array could probably transport five or six people at most at one time, any more might damage the array.
Also, the activation of the array required energy, currently supported mostly by him. However, this expenditure was trivial for him. With Qingshan Village’s population, one energy replenishment could last a month.
However, he would definitely need to refine the process in the future; he had not found the appropriate substitute yet.
Soon, with Wang Sheng included, all five were ready.
The five entered the Array together, the Array activated, and the 450-mile journey felt like nothing; the other four only felt a moment of daze before finding themselves inside a building.
“Have we arrived?”
Zhu Xiao stepped out, saw the familiar Yuelai Inn, and fell silent, realizing that only through firsthand experience could one truly understand such astonishment.
Meanwhile, Wang Sheng was still asking about their experiences.
“No sensations, no discomfort!”
That was everyone’s experience; Wang Sheng had included a protective mode when creating the Array.
Products meant for people, of course, should focus on human needs.
“Then there should be no problems, you can return on your own now.”
The subsequent tests were equally unproblematic, completely successful.
When the people experiencing it shared their stories within the village, everyone was left stunned.
“A miracle!”
That was the thought of most people.
Zhu Xiao looked at Wang Sheng and said, “Do you know what this means for businessmen?”
Even a few hundred kilometers of transportation could eliminate untold difficulties, especially when it came to transporting valuable goods.
“If you were to spread this technology and charge a fee, you could become the wealthiest man in a short time.”
“It’s not the time yet,” Wang Sheng did not say no; to not utilize the Teleportation Array would be to waste it.
However, there were too many current restrictions, such as the need for him to supply energy, which alone limited large-scale use.
Zhu Xiao understood what Wang Sheng implied.
She saw the rise of a true giant, not in strength but in business.
Thinking this, she instantly had an idea.
“If possible in the future, might we collaborate with my Yuelai Inn?”
If cooperation were possible, the development of Yuelai Inn would be incredibly impressive.
“If possible, the pure profits of Yuelai Inn could give you fifty percent.”
A fifty percent share of the pure profits was astounding, but Zhu Xiao knew that once the cooperation was formed, her earnings would definitely exceed these fifty percent.
“Agreed.” Wang Sheng had no objections; to him, it made no difference, and he wouldn’t have to worry about managing it himself, which suited him fine.
Zhu Xiao smiled.
Some opportunities, when they stand before you, must be seized tightly.
At this point, everyone in the village gathered around the Array, marveling at its magic.
In the end, it was Li Yongfeng, as the village chief, who dispersed the crowd and instructed them not to spread word indiscriminately. However, Wang Sheng did not strictly enforce this, as it wouldn’t matter much if the news spread; his strength was threat to no one.
If not for the conditions not allowing, he wouldn’t have installed it only in Qingshan Village.
However, this matter was destined not to leave the villagers at peace.
After the installation, Wang Sheng did not interfere much; he would merely collect usage data periodically to refine the system.
This was just a side event because of the potential of Unlimited Qiankun, which was why he still invested time to handle it.
But it wasn’t enough to consume all his energy.
After confirming there would be no problems, he went back into retreat.
Li Yongfeng would handle matters well.
He wouldn’t let the Teleportation Array be misused or left to collect dust.
With someone there to trailblaze, no one would exhibit an ‘all bark and no bite’ attitude.
Time passed quickly, and 563 already ended, soon bringing about the year 564.
People in Qingshan Village grew accustomed to the existence of the Teleportation Array, and Wang Sheng, through various information collections, refined it several times.
At present, adding energy no longer required Wang Sheng’s participation; the Spirit Cultivators could handle it. The main person responsible for maintaining the Array was Yue, who didn’t mind as she could study the Array.
Since it required no personal energy replenishment, Wang Sheng constructed another, this time direct to Jiangyuan City’s Yuelai Inn.
With just one transfer, one could reach Jiangyuan City directly, much more conveniently.
Because of this, the passage of information became faster and more efficient, directly reaching Qingshan Village.
Wang Sheng gained deeper insights into external situations, especially those concerning the Tianping Sect.
The Taiping Sect was still thriving well despite its precarious position; due to its strong defensive capabilities, the other two forces were reluctant to provoke it. There was significant friction between the Ming Dynasty and the Qian Dynasty, with the Ming Dynasty appearing to seek something within the Qian Dynasty.
Furthermore, recently, for reasons unknown, the presence of Demon Beasts within the three forces had increased.
The Taiping Sect dealt with countless Demon Beast incidents daily, highly abnormal.
Wang Sheng had not been overly concerned until in the year 565, Zhu Xiao received a message.
“Wang Sheng, a Demon King has appeared, known as the Blood Python King, causing chaos within the Ming Dynasty!”
Wang Sheng, who had been in retreat, immediately came out.
He had been waiting for years for the Demon King to reveal itself!
“I’m going out for a while!”
What Wang Sheng didn’t know was, as he left to seek the Demon King, other forces were also on the move.
