Chapter 499: Lingchao Hegemony, Surviving Five Tribulations in a Row(1/2)
There was a clear record in the research records of that Qianxuan Sanxian.
That is, countless billions of years ago, after the war that affected an unknown number of cultivation worlds and lasted for an unknown number of years ended.
The Hanyuan Realm Group, which completely defeated the strange world group on the other side, and then completely annexed the other side's tens of millions of new worlds, truly established the magnificent scene of "billions of heavens" like today.
And the core of the world group that ended the war and achieved complete victory, Ge Miao World, also took a fancy to Tianmui and chose Tianmui as a substitute for Xianmo.
Subsequently, under the will of Master Yuanmo, the Ge Miao world used various hegemonic means to force all the cultivation worlds in the group that were rich in heavenly essence to sign many treaties and agreements with it.
The content of the treaty is that the trade of hundreds of millions of heavenly essences between the worlds must be settled in spiritual currency.
At this point, Lingchao hegemony was once again established in the world of Gemiao.
And this time, the hegemony established based on Tianmui is far more stable and terrifying than the hegemony of Xianmo.
Because any world of cultivation, whether it has developed into the Void Age or not, or whether there are a large number of ancient Void ships, will inevitably have a great demand for Tianmui.
However, not all worlds produce this spiritual material, Tianmui, or the output is variable.
Qianxuan, for example, is a world where the output of Heavenly Essence is relatively small.
Basically, more than half of its Heavenly Essence needs to be imported at a high price from Yunheng World in order to maintain the normal construction and operation of a large number of teleportation arrays and teleportation gates in many regions in the world.
As for the five major sects that controlled the only entrance and exit channel of Qianxuan, they also gained huge benefits from it.
This benefit includes a large number of physical objects such as spiritual money, spiritual materials and spiritual plants, as well as the influence and control over many medium and large sects, organizations, and forces that rely on the Tianmui for their existence.
The reason why the five major sects can firmly dominate the Qianxuan ruling class is also related to this to a certain extent.
In short, it is similar to the Qianxuan world. No matter which world of cultivation, as long as it is not in that undeveloped barbaric stage, it must be inseparable from Tianmui.
As a result, the billions of worlds in the Hanyuan Realm Group can no longer escape the shackles of spiritual currency, the inter-dimensional currency.
Since then, the world of Gemiao has begun to print large amounts of spiritual money to purchase goods from other worlds.
In order for the billions of world to survive, it can only continue to increase its own spiritual foreign exchange reserves.
But all these require the various worlds to exchange a large number of their own production of magical arrays, spiritual mines, spiritual plants, and even magic techniques and other practical resources to obtain them.
And this plays into the hands of Ge Miao World.
Because as long as there are places where spiritual banknotes are circulated and used, they will have seigniorage revenue.
So what is seigniorage?
Simply put, seigniorage is the difference between the face value of a banknote and the cost of producing the banknote.
For example, the cost of a spiritual note with a face value of 10,000 is only one yuan.
The price difference is 9999 yuan, which is the seigniorage tax.
This one is pretty small.
Like some very large denominations of spiritual banknotes, such as one trillion yuan.
The cost is still not more than one yuan, but the price difference... has reached nearly one trillion.
This is also a seigniorage tax.
This is the huge amount of income that Ge Miao World earns for free every moment.
Correspondingly, hundreds of millions of cultivators in the world will also rely on various methods to obtain, or in other words, earn spiritual coins to purchase the Heavenly Essence.
But what to do with the excess?
If it is allowed to flow into the industry, it will cause inflation in the industry, and then shake the entire economic system and even the ruling system.
Therefore, the various worlds can only choose to purchase various illusory financial products such as futures, options and even bonds in the world of Gemiao, so that the spiritual money will continue to flow back into the world of Gemiao.
The Gemiao World will use these spiritual coins to buy a large amount of resources from the Billion World.
There is no need to print too many spiritual banknotes. You only need to use low-value paper to buy spiritual banknotes from other worlds, and eventually form a stable return system.
In other words, hundreds of millions of worlds are waiting to be forced into the chariot of spiritual money by Ge Miao World or Master Yuanmo.
The spiritual currency falls, and the world of billions falls.
The spiritual currency is stable, and the billions of worlds are stable.
Interests are linked and difficult to separate.
The world of Gemiao, which has nothing to do with production, makes money with nothing. It can easily control the economic lifeline of hundreds of millions of sentient beings in the world simply through the hegemony of spiritual money.
As long as the trade circulation of all walks of life cannot be separated from the spiritual currency, the world of Gemiao can control the interest rate cuts and raises to pluck the wool of all walks of life and harvest the flesh and blood of all walks of life at will.
In summary, the series of methods used by Ge Miao World are obviously more convenient and faster than direct robbery, and they also save worry and effort.
As long as the invincible Master Yuanmo exists, there is no need for him to take action or worry at all.
At every moment, there will naturally be countless resources flowing from the world of billions of cultivators to the world of Ge Miao, for everyone to enjoy and squander.
"It's really a worry-free and labor-saving method of exploitation, but..."
Chen Sanyu smiled softly, "It's not suitable for me."
Although the ancient cluster is biased towards idealism, it is not truly pure idealism after all.
Therefore, almost all monks in this world are still extremely dependent on various external resources in terms of their cultivation path and daily life.
But Chen Sanyu was different.
His cultivation and progress do not require many resources.
Even if he sits quietly or wanders around casually every day without any interaction with external spiritual energy and various resources, Chen Sanyu's cultivation level will skyrocket out of thin air.
Now his only needs from the outside world are the growth of Taoism brought about by sentient beings' loans and cultivation, and the rules and information exchanged from the Dao of Heaven with merit.
And now the first demand - the growth of Taoism - is almost coming to an end.
Yes, after nearly half an hour, Chen Sanyu was finally about to reach the peak of Hedao.
"one two three……"
He kept silent in his mind for tens of seconds:
"……ten."
With the "full support" of countless sentient beings in the entire Qianxuan world, Chen Sanyu's realm suddenly reached the peak of Hedao without any sound.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Immediately afterwards, all of his terrifying powers that were trillions of times the peak level of Hedao were unsealed.
boom--
In an instant, all phenomena within a radius of billions and billions of miles, the changes and flows of the universe, yin and yang, were all included in Chen Sanyu's perception and control.
As long as he thought about it at this moment, the entire vast Qianxuan world containing hundreds of millions of areas and infinite sentient beings would be reduced to nothing in an instant, or distorted beyond recognition.
At the same time, Chen Sanyu also realized in his heart that... as long as ten more breaths pass, the catastrophe will come.
If you cannot survive the catastrophe, everything will come to an end;
After surviving the catastrophe, you will ascend to the upper realm.
"Are you so impatient...Tiandao."
He slowly raised his head to look at the boundless sky and smiled jokingly, "You want me to ascend and then collect my debt?
Haha, what a delusion, I just won’t ascend.”
It stands to reason that after a monk reaches the peak of Hedao, he will have to wait at least another thousand years or even longer before there are signs of heavenly catastrophe.
But Chen Sanyu is better.
As soon as he reached the peak of Hedao, Tiandao was impatient to bring disaster and wanted to settle the huge debt with him.
Chen Sanyu was unwilling to do this.
Because he himself doesn’t know how much wool he has harvested from Tiandao.
He just knew that this debt must be extremely huge, so huge that even if all the countless sentient beings in the Qianxuan World were squeezed dry into juice, they would still be far from being able to repay it.
"Since we can't afford it now, let's talk about it later and put it aside for later discussion."
Chen Sanyu looked relaxed and immediately began to practice the method of avoiding disasters of loose immortals, planning to specialize in the way of loose immortals.
Set a small goal, cultivate to a hundred kalpas and then ascend.
A Hundred Tribulations Loose Immortal, no matter what, he can trample the top Earth Immortal like a bug.
While leisurely thinking about it, Chen Sanyu used only one ten thousandth of a breath to fully understand the thousands of years of practice that even those at the peak of Hedao had to master.
After another breath, Chen Sanyu's body and spirit began to undergo various subtle changes.
He officially became a loose immortal.
Click click click!!!
At the end of the endless gray sky, bursts of thunder suddenly shook the sky, as if there were endless world-shaking thunders ready to strike, about to strike down.
At the same time, there are billions of roaring and rolling strange black winds that are majestic, thick, and wildly dancing like ancient black snakes, as well as the gray wind that spreads its teeth and claws like the beards of the world-corrupting devil for countless billions of miles in the sky. The great tide of turbid and scorching fire appeared out of thin air, blowing and scorching toward Chen Sanyu from all directions of the world, such as the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
This is the eternal punishment of heaven.
Normally speaking, after a peak saint transforms into a loose immortal, he must advance his cultivation level at least a thousand times before facing his first heavenly punishment.
