As one of the many weapon-refining sects in the western region of Tianyuan Continent, Bailian Sect has produced more than ten famous weapon-refining masters. Thirty percent of the cultivators in the western region of Tianyuan Continent own at least one magic weapon produced by Bailian Sect.

However, their success and failure are both due to refining weapons. It is precisely because they are too obsessed with refining weapons that the average level of cultivation in the sect is not high. None of those weapon refining masters can break through the Nascent Soul stage, and ultimately cannot escape the fate of 500 years.

In the past hundred years, no new weapon-refining masters have been born in the Bailian Sect, and with the strong rise of the weapon-refining giant Zhujian Villa in the Southern Region, the magic weapons produced by the Bailian Sect were once unsalable.

A large number of magic tools were piled up in the sect's warehouse and could not be converted into spirit stones, causing the Bailian Sect to face a financial crisis. The sect's middle and senior management had not received their monthly spirit stone subsidies for decades.

As the chief disciple of Bailian Sect, Longquan was naturally very anxious. However, just now he saw a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope that would allow Bailian Sect to escape from its current predicament.

"Why are you so flustered? Didn't I ask you to go to Hanhai City to discuss the consignment of magical instruments with the shopkeeper Ma of Qiwuxuan? Why are you back so soon?"

As the words fell, an old man with white hair and beard and a strong body appeared in front of Longquan. He was Zhang Xiaoquan, the current leader of Bailian Sect. He was also one of the three weapon refining masters who were promoted from Bailian Sect.

Hearing his master's words, Longquan first bowed respectfully, then quickly explained:

"Master, I went to Hanhai City yesterday and met the owner of Qiwuxuan, Ma. He told me clearly that all of their magical instruments are currently sourced from the Sword Casting Villa and several specially contracted instrument refining masters."

"If we want to list our Bailian Sect's magical instruments on their shelves, we have to pay them at least 100,000 spirit stones per month as a listing fee. In addition, they will take 20% of the sales for every magical instrument sold."

"What! There is such a thing!" Zhang Xiaoquan was instantly furious, and raging flames immediately burst out of his body. The aura of a powerful Jindan master directly forced Longquan, who was only at the foundation-building stage, to retreat several steps.

"Master, please calm down. Master, please calm down. Although I didn't close the deal with Qiwuxuan this time, my trip to Hanhai City wasn't completely fruitless. I've found a new channel through which I might be able to sell all of Bailian Sect's unsold magical instruments."

As soon as Longquan finished speaking, the flames on Zhang Xiaoquan's body disappeared, and a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.

"Oh? Are you planning to take our Bailian Sect's magical instruments to the Eastern and Northern Territories to sell?"

"I'm afraid this won't work. The Eastern Region is the territory of the Fiery Flame Sect. They've been entrenched there for thousands of years, and almost all major businesses have partnerships with them. The Northern Region is the territory of the Blood Refining Sect. While the magical instruments they refine may not be up to par, they are cheap. Unless we can lower our costs even further than theirs, there's no profit margin at all."

"Master, these are not the channels I'm talking about." Longquan suddenly smiled mysteriously and took out his mobile phone.

"This is a magical weapon that I bought in Hanhai City yesterday for 2 spirit stones. This magical weapon is very special..."

As he spoke, Longquan told Zhang Xiaoquan the whole story about the mobile phone and Douyin.

When Zhang Xiaoquan heard that he could sell his products thousands of miles away in an instant through a mobile phone, a look of disbelief immediately appeared on his face.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could such a small thing achieve such an effect."

Longquan seemed to have anticipated that Zhang Xiaoquan would not believe it, and immediately took out the magic weapon he had just bought from True Man Huolong.

"Master, look, this is the magic weapon I just bought from the Fire Dragon Master's window. You should know it at a glance."

Looking at the magic weapon handed over by Longquan, Zhang Xiaoquan first reached out to take it, and then looked at it carefully.

"Yes, this is indeed the weapon refining method of Master Huolong. He is the only one in the entire Tianyuan Continent who can refine magic weapons so crudely."

"Did you really buy this from your phone?"

"Seriously!" Longquan said with a firm face.

"Master Huolong already has over 20,000 fans. I wonder how many have watched his videos. If we find Master Huolong and collaborate with him, have him mention our Bailian Sect's magical instruments in his videos, and then put our Bailian Sect's magical instruments in his display window, maybe we can sell them then."

"What's this called? Oh, right, it's called advertising."

After Longquan's detailed explanation, Zhang Xiaoquan was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"That's all I can do. But before you go find Master Huolong, take me to buy a cell phone."

"Master is very interested in this phone."

"Why don't you give this one to me first, and then go buy a new one yourself."

Before Longquan could react, the phone in his hand had already passed into Zhang Xiaoquan's hand.

Seeing this scene, Longquan's face immediately showed an expression of being at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Master, it's hard to buy a cell phone these days. Yesterday..."

"Hmm? You're not willing to give this to your master, a mere two spirit stones?"

"Hey, if you're willing, I'll go buy it."

After saying that, Longquan walked aside awkwardly, while Zhang Xiaoquan looked at the phone in his hand seriously. Originally, he wanted to study why this magic weapon was so special, but as he looked at it, he was attracted by the short video in the phone.

Especially when he saw a beautiful female cultivator wearing a JK uniform dancing to the music, a lewd smile suddenly appeared on his old face.

"This is truly a wonderful treasure. I, the Master, must study it carefully."

After saying this, he seemed to realize that his behavior was inappropriate, and quickly pretended to be serious.

"Alright, you can leave now. Later, take the token from my master and go find Master Huolong. I had some friendship with him when I was young, so he shouldn't reject you."

"Yes! Master!"

"Also, Master suggests that you watch less TikTok. Watching too much will affect your cultivation."

As soon as these words were spoken, Longquan's face suddenly showed a look of speechlessness.

"I know what you want to say. I am different from you. I am 480 years old this year. I will definitely not be able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in this lifetime, so I am not afraid of any impact."

"After working hard for most of my life, it's time to enjoy myself."

After saying that, Zhang Xiaoquan strode towards a hall in front of him, laughing obscenely at the screen of his mobile phone as he walked.

Seeing this, Longquan had no choice but to summon his flying sword and head towards Hanhai City, which was a thousand miles away from Bailian Sect.

However, when he finally arrived in Hanhai City and found the Sihai Pavilion in Hanhai City, he saw the thing he least wanted to see.

A sign saying the phone is sold out.

"What bad luck! How come they are sold out again?"

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, a monk with a shifty look suddenly approached him.

The next second, the monk lifted up his clothes, revealing dozens of mobile phones inside.

"Fellow Daoist, do you want a cell phone? It's 100 Spirit Stones. I just bought it, brand new."
