I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2652: Chapter 1215: True Comprehension of the Star Path, Demon Market Platform_2

The energy from various parts of the planet transformed into torrents, rushing toward the back side, being devoured and refined by the Demon Tree continuously.

Chen Mobai watched this scene but did not intervene to stop it.

For him, this planet was beyond saving.

All he could do was avenge the Star Clan that had already perished.

Chen Mobai deployed several Void Dao Marks, concealing them in various locations on Huan Yuanxing.

This was what he learned from the Teleportation Array in Taixu MiaoMiao Palace, mainly used for positioning.

The purpose of positioning, naturally, was to lock the planet’s position in the universe.

Chen Mobai certainly didn’t plan to lead the members of the Immortal Gate over to battle the Three Eyed Tribe, as the Three-eyed King was cultivating Void; without Bai Guang back, the Immortal Gate was completely outmatched.

But he could sell this information to other beings in the universe.

In the Purple Cloud Galaxy, being a Planet Merchant is a very promising career.

However, to become a qualified Planet Merchant, one needs a good reputation.

Chen Mobai holds the Purple Cloud Palace and can ensure that wherever they land is certainly a Demon-contaminated Planet. So what he needs to do now is to make a name for himself. This way, the intelligence on Demon-contaminated Planets can fetch a high price in the future.

Because Huan Yuanxing has already been occupied by the Three Eyed Tribe, Chen Mobai dared not leave too many Void Dao Marks; if discovered, it would surely attract the attention of the Three-eyed King, whose power while cultivating Void is unknown.

Three Void Dao Marks are about enough, hidden far from the Demon Tree, in three places across the planet.

Though the Three Eyed Tribe are individually powerful, their population is not large, and they basically only linger near the Spirit Veins adjacent to the Demon Tree.

After confirming all three marks are able to sense and locate, Chen Mobai dispersed this Void Illusion Avatar of his.

Time quickly passed, and forty-nine days went by.

All the members of the Three Eyed Tribe on this planet have comprehended the Three Thousand Great Dao of the Purple Cloud Palace.

At night, the Three-eyed King, adhering to past experiences, was pulled into the Purple Cloud Palace. Upon opening his eyes, he saw Chen Mobai sitting tranquilly on the first rank of futons, and his pupils involuntarily contracted.

Although Chen Mobai had previously claimed to be a disciple of the Purple Cloud Palace, only now did the Three-eyed King believe it to be true.

"You should all understand the rules, but I will still explain..."

Chen Mobai stood up from his futon after confirming that the selected inhabitants from this planet were all present, and spoke as he arrived at the Green Lotus Stone Platform.

A while later.

The beings within the Purple Cloud Palace each dispersed and departed, leaving only Chen Mobai and the Three-eyed King.

After comprehending a key point concerning the Destruction Path, the Three-eyed King felt as though his bloodline was about to evolve and ascend again.

"Wait for me, soon this will be your star."

After uttering this towards Chen Mobai, the Three-eyed King’s figure began to gently dissipate.

"Hope so, I am quite hoping you die at my hands." Chen Mobai slightly smiled in response to this.

The Three-eyed King opened his mouth, but had already vanished within the palace.

Chen Mobai stepped over the threshold of the palace, observing the substantial Three Thousand Great Dao outside gradually dissipating, his gaze meeting the Three-eyed King waiting by the Demon Tree once more.

Within both their eyes, only murderous intent was present.

...

Amidst the flickering silver light, Chen Mobai had already returned to the Immortal Gate.

This time, he was cultivating in seclusion at Wangxian Peak because the Portal was placed there.

Upon exiting the grand hall of seclusion, Chen Mobai arrived before the Portal atop the mountain peak.

Adeptly stepping into the void within, Chen Mobai began searching on the textual talisman-covered walls around for the content he needed.

Soon, he found a forum-like area in a corner.

This was entirely filled with information pertaining to Demon-contaminated Planets, hence known as the "Demon Market."

[I currently have some spare time at Mystic Palace, looking to find some nearby Demon-contaminated Planets to earn some Dao Merits; price is negotiable.]

[A Demon-contaminated Planet was discovered near Central Galaxy’s Mo Yue arena, planetary strength unknown, take half a Dao Merits needed, all proceeds sold.]

[Three Demon-contaminated Planets found around White Palace Hongpu Star System, one price 5 Dao Merits.]

[Sincerely recruiting a team to hunt an undeveloped purged Demon-contaminated Planet, civilization and inhabitants above have been thoroughly investigated, Heaven and Earth Placenta and Planet Spiritual Veins resources all intact, interested parties please contact privately.]

...

After skimming through the first dozen pages of content, Chen Mobai basically gained a fundamental understanding of this industry.

The planet merchant sector primarily divides into informants and hunters.

But oftentimes, both are united.

If informants know the Demon-contaminated Planet’s strength is lacking, they will definitely claim it for themselves rather than sell it.

After all, besides the Dao Merits distributed by the Portal after purification and extinction, other treasures like the Heaven and Earth Placenta, Planet Spiritual Veins, exotic treasures, etc., can be sold at a premium.

The sale of Demon-contaminated Planet intelligence also has two methods.

One is direct buyout with a firm price; after selling, regardless of how many Dao Merits the hunter gains, it belongs entirely to the hunter.

The other method is revenue-sharing; after a hunter seizes the Demon-contaminated Planet, the final Dao Merits gained are split with the informant according to the agreed ratio. This scenario generally arises when there’s mutual distrust, or the hunter is extremely destitute, unable to spare Dao Merits.

Both methods have their respective pros and cons.

Being new to this market, Chen Mobai could only choose the second revenue-sharing method.

Because in the Demon Market, there’s this thing called "credit points."

Each completed transaction adds credit points to the account, and only this kind of informant earns hunter’s trust.

After all, a buyout requires directly giving Dao Merits away. However, these Dao Merits aren’t immediately credited to the informant’s account; they are temporarily held by the Demon Market platform.

Typically, only after a hunter conquers and purifies a Demon-contaminated Planet and this is recorded by the Portal, will it be credited to the informant’s account.

Yet there’s also the possibility that the Demon-contaminated Planet’s strength is too overwhelming, causing hunter’s demise instead. Should this happen, those Dao Merits will be held by the platform for a hundred years, with the platform taking half after the century and crediting the remainder to the informant’s account.

Of course, an informant can also choose to relinquish these Dao Merits, reselling their intelligence. Doing so leads to the last buyout transaction’s Dao Merits fully reverting to the platform.

And a transaction involving a Demon-contaminated Planet causing hunter’s demise will also add a "danger points" factor to the informant.

Credit points and danger points are two systems, independent of each other. Moreover, after applying to become an informant, these are public, available for hunter inquiry.

Informants with high danger points naturally attract fewer hunters.

But informants with zero credit points basically don’t get hunters visiting at all.

Following the Demon Market platform’s guidance, Chen Mobai began registering to apply as an informant.

After completing all the details, the account name was directly taken as the Portal’s [White Crane Dojo Survivors Mutual Assistance Association], as changing it required 1 Dao Merit, and Chen Mobai certainly wouldn’t waste such money.

After successful registration, Chen Mobai was about to post, but an unexpected issue occurred.

The platform popped up a window explaining that to post as an informant on this Demon Market platform, each post requires a 1 Dao Merit deposit; refunded upon transaction completion or cancelation.

Chen Mobai opened the detailed explanation, and the platform stated this requirement arose because some had previously registered numerous accounts, polluting the forum with fake news.

So essentially, without capital, one can’t conduct the informant business.

Fortunately, there was still 1 Dao Merit left in the account balance as a backup.

Grateful for his foresight, Chen Mobai reluctantly took out the last Dao Merit, edited some information related to the current planet where the Three Eyed Tribe resided, and posted it on the platform.
