The construction process was not over yet.
Li Xinyu had been responsible for calculations and creating the blueprint while the huge snail was responsible for turning the materials into finished products.
Within the radius of fifty kilometers, a series of intricately-crafted buildings materialized, alongside scenic locations and countless living creatures, creating a spectacular scene to behold.
An antiquated yet luxurious nine-story main palace stood at the very center as it glowed with a dazzling light under the sun.
The Moon Pavilion stood beside a lake, which was named the Bright Moon Lake.
One skyscraper after the other appeared over a vast set of grasslands. That was Bai Ling’s Purple Star Pavilion.
Aside from that, a dragon valley, a fairy forest, a myriad sword forest… One region after another began to take shape.
Everyone’s eyes were about to fall out of their sockets.
They had been a little disgruntled by Li Xinyu’s bad attitude, high prices, and her overall arrogance.
However, only awe and veneration remained in their hearts now. This was only a casual job, and it was already a masterpiece!!
“As expected of the number one construction duo within the Kingdom of the Nine States. Those three million spirit stones was money extremely well spent!” An Lin sighed with emotion.
Everyone nodded silently, clearly very much in agreement with An Lin’s sentiment.
They couldn’t help but let their imaginations run wild.
If a three-million-spirit-stone job was already this magnificent, what would a thirty-million-spirit-stone ordinary job or a three-hundred-million-spirit-stone earnest job look like?
“An Lin, how about I donate thirty million spirit stones to the sect so that we can get an ordinary job done?” Liu Qianhuan couldn’t help but propose.
“Yes, yes, I can also contribute! I have a bit of money saved up at the imperial palace!” Su Qianyun also chimed in with an excited expression. She was clearly also quite eager to see what an ordinary job would be like.
“No. I told you that I won’t be using your money. We can wait until the sect becomes more developed, then make upgrades using the sect’s money.” An Lin immediately refused their proposals.
Thirty million spirit stones was not a small amount. Even for Su Qianyun and Liu Qianhuan who came from an imperial family and one of the four great sects respectively, it would be quite difficult to accumulate such a large amount of money.
A short while later, the sect was complete.
Less than a day had passed, but the Four Nine Immortal Sect had officially been constructed.
Holy Lord Tian Wo reverted back to its tiny snail form before flying back onto Mount Breastverest to rest as it yawned with a bored expression.
Li Xinyu waved a hand toward everyone who had been swept into the sky. “All done, you can come on down now!”
An Lin and the others immediately descended while offering a relentless stream of praise toward the woman and the snail.
The little snail was clearly quite pleased to receive these compliments, and its small feelers waved with smugness.
It had actually heard words of praise like this countless times in its life, but it still experienced a different sense of elation each time it received compliments like this.
“I’m not trying to gloat, but I, the mighty Holy Lord Tian Wo, am the best construction master among all the mythological beasts of this world!” the little snail boasted gleefully.
Everyone drew a sharp intake of breath upon hearing this. This little snail really was a mythological beast!
Only beasts who had successfully reached Dao Integration Stage could be referred to as mythological beasts!
Who would have thought that they could employ the services of a mythological beast for a paltry three million spirit stones…
With this in mind, everyone became a little perplexed. Why had a mighty mythological beast been reduced to doing construction work for a living?
It just felt really weird!
“Hehe, Ms. Li Xinyu, Mr. Snail, can we exchange some contact details?” An Lin asked with a hint of anticipation.
Li Xinyu’s brows furrowed upon hearing this. “Why? You want us to provide after-sale services? We don’t offer that. In fact, we don’t offer any service after the job has been done!”
An Lin’s lips twitched upon hearing this. These two were probably the only construction team in the world that could refuse to offer after-sale services in such a justified and convincing manner!
“No, no, it’s not what you think. I just want to exchange some contact details so that I can invite you back to our sect for an upgrade when we have more money in the future.” An Lin forced an amicable smile onto his face.
“Tch…” Li Xinyu crossed her arms across her voluptuous chest. “I have no interest in peasants. There are countless people who want my contact details!”
“I’m not interested in it either. If all the female beasts who sought after my contact details were to line up, they would create a massive queue that stretched all the way from the East Sea to the West Sea!” the little snail said in a haughty voice as it sat on Li Xinyu’s chest.
An Lin’s eyelids twitched as rage flared up in his heart, but he still forced himself to maintain his smile. Had the snail misunderstood? He was not interested in snails in the slightest!
“I feel like you both have some sort of misunderstanding about my financial condition.” An Lin heaved a light sigh.
His storage ring flashed, and a series of immortal tools that exuded terrifying energy fluctuations appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Evil-Slaying Sword, Realm-Piercing Nail, Heavenly Frost Shard, Blood Soul Jade Coffin, Divine Flame Badge…
Scintillating light flashed, threatening to blind all the onlookers present!
Li Xinyu and the little snail finally stirred upon seeing all those treasures.
An Lin’s storage ring flashed again, and all the special artifacts, which consisted of the Vermilion Bird Mirror, the Regal Crown, the Thousand Possibility Box, and the Ninety-Nine-Fold Extreme Heavenly Formation Disk, all appeared before them.
Li Xinyu’s eyes finally lit up as those treasures appeared.
“That golden crown and that box with the skull on it contain extremely potent Dragon Tribe power of the divine dao. Very nice!” Li Xinyu evaluated.
“That mirror is even more extraordinary! I can detect the aura of a holy beast from it! And that black box and the little formation disk, they possess extremely profound dao intents! Those must be priceless artifacts that were crafted by Dao Integration Stage mighty figures!” the little snail exclaimed.
An Lin was shocked upon hearing their statements. To think they were able to glean so much about these special artifacts with just a single glance; what startling evaluation abilities!
He nonchalantly put all the treasures away into his storage ring before turning to Li Xinyu again with a faint smile. “Have I changed your mind?”
Li Xinyu nodded with a smile of her own. “I underestimated your financial ability. I look forward to our next meeting!”
She flipped a hand over, and a white jade stone appeared in the palm of her hand, which she then handed over to An Lin.
“What’s this?” An Lin asked.
“This is a sensory transmission talisman. Crush it and I will be able to detect your location. Voice transmission talismans will be useless when I’m in another world. However, this sensory transmission talisman is effective even between realms,” Li Xinyu explained with a smile. “Congratulations on becoming one of our ordinary members!”
An Lin carefully put away the sensory transmission talisman before asking with curiosity in his voice, “There are other types of memberships?”
“Of course. There are high-level members, most of which are Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures. There are also esteemed members who are the Gods of Creation that transcend beyond this world.” Li Xinyu wagged a finger at An Lin as she said with a slight smile, “Your financial ability is still quite a distance away from allowing you to become a high-level member, so make sure you continue to work hard!”
An Lin took a deep breath upon hearing this. This was the first time that he had felt his financial ability was pitiful!
That made sense though. The level of people he was coming into contact with nowadays was different from those in the past.
Back when he was just a poor boy, the Grandmaster Construction Cultivator wouldn’t even consider building a sect for him.
However, now that his power level was quickly on the rise and his horizons were being constantly broadened, it was natural that he would encounter some amazing people.
“Oh, by the way, which of the Gods of Creation are your esteemed members?”
An Lin couldn’t suppress his curiosity in the end.
“Sorry, this is confidential client information,” Li Xinyu replied with a mysterious smile. “I’ll be taking my leave if you don’t have any other questions.”
Her voice was a lot gentler now that An Lin had become a member.
“Alright, thank you for your efforts today, and we look forward to seeing you next time.” An Lin nodded with a smile.
Li Xinyu waved at everyone before tearing open a spatial rift and departing.
