A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 21

It must be said that Wu Rulong was indeed a talent; after obtaining the items from Wu Hao, he quickly began mass-producing the mobile phones. Of course, it wasn’t just about the production; ensuring the perfection of various features was essential before the release.

Although the cultivators were quite capable, it took a full two months to barely complete the construction of modern company infrastructure and various hardware.

“President, this gadget is something great! If what the books say is true, then it really won’t be a problem for our Wu Commerce Association to become the largest association in the entire Xuantian Realm!” Ouyang Feng exclaimed, playing with the mobile phone in his hands, his face filled with excitement. He felt extremely fortunate that he hadn’t left when the president was down and out; how could such immense wealth have possibly come to them otherwise?

“Ah, enough talk for now. Quickly finish building the base stations; the signal is the most crucial aspect. Once we have the signal, we can start selling our mobile phones. Also, get the programmers to work on developing various applications!”

“I assure you, once our Wu Commerce Association becomes the largest in the entire Xuantian Realm, we will definitely help you break through to Quasi-Emperor!”

Wu Hao’s skills in persuasion had rubbed off on Wu Rulong, and upon hearing Wu Rulong’s words, the excitement on Ouyang Feng and the others’ faces was utterly undiminished; they were nearly ready to kneel before Wu Rulong to express their enthusiasm.

“President, we understand! As long as we are alive, we will absolutely make sure nothing happens to you!”

“Enough of that; go and urge them to get to work.”

After learning the technology from Wu Hao, Wu Rulong gathered a group of Golden Core cultivators to quickly assimilate these techniques. The learning capabilities of Golden Core cultivators are naturally exceptional; they grasped the coding skills in no time.

After two months, they had managed to complete the development of several products. Next, they simply needed to wait for the base stations to be finished; once they had the signal, they could begin selling the mobile phones. Wu Rulong believed that as soon as the phones hit the market, not just ordinary people but even cultivators would be very interested.

After all, traditional Message Stones consume spiritual energy, but mobile phones are different—they can work as long as they have power and a signal. The most important part is that the functionality of Message Stones is extremely limited, while mobile phones can do so much more.

Once they also got Douyin running, Wu Rulong believed it would undoubtedly attract a lot of cultivators’ interest. If they later developed formations as well, the mobile phone could even save lives, which would undoubtedly make the Wu Commerce Association immensely popular!

On the other side, the Li Dynasty felt quite exhausted both physically and mentally in the throes of the commercial war against the Wu Commerce Association. It wasn’t just due to the strange array of business models initiated by the Wu Commerce Association; the most significant factor was their terrifying financial power.

It’s important to note that during this commercial war, the Li Dynasty invested a whopping one hundred thousand Supreme Spirit Stones. It’s known that no normal dynasty could easily come up with such a large amount of Supreme Spirit Stones, which shows that Li Xukun was truly serious this time.

However, to his surprise, there hadn’t been a single ripple caused; instead, the Li Dynasty’s industries were suffering defeat after defeat.

“Damn it, do we really have to resort to violence to solve this problem?”

After confirming that there was Quasi-Emperor-level combat power behind the Wu Commerce Association, Li Xukun no longer wanted to confront them head-on. After all, if he summoned the Ancestor for help, it would not just cost a mere hundred thousand Supreme Spirit Stones to resolve the issue.

The Rebirth Coffin has only one effect; in other words, once someone emerges from the Rebirth Coffin, the extra six hundred thousand years of lifespan would vanish instantly. The Ancestors of the Li Dynasty had lived for a long time, well beyond six hundred thousand years, meaning that coming out would only lead to death and wouldn’t last for long.

If not absolutely necessary, he would never invoke the Ancestors.

“Damn it, I can only tough it out for now. The situation in my Li Dynasty isn’t good, but can the Wu Commerce Association be any better? Just wait, they will inevitably lose!”

What Li Xukun didn’t realize was that due to Wu Hao’s earlier assistance, the Wu Commerce Association had been gaining resources at a rate that was ten thousand times greater, so not to mention the Li Dynasty, even if a Sacred Land came, it might not be able to compete with the Wu Commerce Association’s foundation.

Soon, time moved to the day the Magnificent Secret Realm was set to open. Lying in Wu Hao’s embrace, Su Qiaoran wore a reluctant expression on her face and said,

“Hubby, the Magnificent Secret Realm is about to open. I need to go inside. While I’m gone, you need to be careful outside and not get yourself entangled with other women!”

As she spoke towards the end, there was a hint of threat in Su Qiaoran’s tone, just as her hand rested on Wu Hao’s soft waist.

Wu Hao quickly cleared his throat and replied,

“Are you kidding me, wife? I’m the pure love warrior; I will absolutely not have a harem in the cultivation world.”

“What is a pure love warrior?”

This was the first time Su Qiaoran had heard this term from Wu Hao, and her beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity.

Wu Hao, with a serious expression, explained,

“Listen, a pure love warrior means that I will only love one person in my life. So, in this lifetime, I will only have you as my wife.”

Hearing Wu Hao’s words, Su Qiaoran felt a surge of satisfaction within, though her face wore a proud expression.

“Well, since you said that, I’ll choose to trust you this time,” Su Qiaoran said.

“By the way, wife, how long will you be inside?” Wu Hao asked curiously, as he thought of something. After all, secret realms usually had time limits for entry, and of course, there were also restrictions based on cultivation levels, but that wasn’t an issue for Wu Hao.

The Magnificent Secret Realm was created by a peak Quasi-Emperor just before their death, and it contained their inheritance. Over the years, countless prodigies had sought to enter the realm to find that inheritance, as finding it offered a great opportunity to break through to Quasi-Emperor.

Naturally, since Wu Hao was a Great Emperor, the barriers set by the peak Quasi-Emperor would pose no challenge for him. If he wanted to enter, it was merely a thought away.

“Um, just for one year. Don’t worry, I’ll come out after a year,” Su Qiaoran said, soothing Wu Hao as if comforting a child. Hearing that he wouldn’t be able to see his wife for a whole year left Wu Hao with a sense of reluctance, but he stubbornly replied,

“No, I’m very angry and hard to coax unless you feed me with milk!”

After all this time as a couple, Su Qiaoran knew exactly what Wu Hao meant, and even just a glance from him made her aware that it was time to change positions.

“Alright, since the child wants milk, then I, as your mother, can only provide it.”

However, what happened next turned into more than just feeding milk; there were also other activities that adults enjoy.
