After Wang Hong handed over the Flying Boat to Chen Xiaofeng, he also took out a large quantity of Spiritual Objects and temporarily entrusted them to Xu Lun for management.

These items were all purchased by him from the Fengwu Continent and could provide significant assistance in their development.

This time, he bought a hundred saplings of spirit fruit trees, all of which he planted in the Space.

Since the Space had limited area, on his way back, he cleared out all the first and second-tier Spiritual Objects that he had planted in it.

Since it was easy to purchase first and second-tier Spiritual Herbs on Fengwu Continent, there was no need to waste Space land.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he mixed the cleared Spiritual Objects with the ones he had purchased.

The mature ones were used directly, while the immature ones were transplanted into spirit fields.

Especially, the number of spirit fruit trees cleared out this time was the highest. These fruit trees had grown in the Space for a long time, with some of them having crowns that could cover an acre of land.

These were the non-mutated fruit trees; he only removed a few low-value mutated varieties, leaving most of the mutated spirit fruit trees in the Space.

With this large batch of massive spirit fruit trees, there would be some spirit fruits maturing every year, providing Great Chu Immortal Nation with an additional source of income.

Upon returning this time, there was also a pleasant surprise. Hu Jian, after using two savage beast Blood Crystals, had actually successfully advanced to the fourth tier.

He became the first fourth-tier martial artist in Great Chu Immortal Nation, signifying a significant milestone. While there were plenty of third-tier martial artists in Great Chu Immortal Nation, they had all reached the peak of the third tier but hadn't found a way to progress further.

Hu Jian's advancement provided a clear path forward, even though the conditions for achieving it were quite challenging. Nevertheless, they now had a direction to strive towards.

After briefing everyone on these matters, Wang Hong went into seclusion alone. He had received a Divine Sense secret technique and hadn't had a chance to study it yet.

While Wang Hong was in seclusion, Liu Changsheng was organizing his subordinates, preparing to infiltrate the Fengwu Continent.

They had always been skilled in assassination and intelligence gathering, and this mission to Fengwu Continent was no different.

However, they would maintain the facade of the Interlinked Merchant Guild on the surface. Regardless of the size, they would establish at least one branch in every city as their base of operations.

Fengwu Continent was much larger than Hezhou Continent, and the cost in terms of Spirit Stones required to expand their presence would be substantial.

Additionally, they needed a vast workforce, and the current manpower of the Immortal Way Trading Company was far from sufficient.

So, for now, they could only start slowly, beginning with Lin Hai City as their base. They would gradually earn capital through their shops and recruit personnel from the Fengwu Continent, then train them gradually.

After all, everything in Great Chu Immortal Nation was still in its early stages, and they had to rely on themselves for everything.

On the other hand, Xu Lun was preparing to open shops in the Fengwu Continent, but for now, they could only focus on developing in Lin Hai City.

Their expansion was on a much larger scale, with all their shops adopting a small and medium-sized store format.

However, their range of operations covered all industries in the Cultivation World, and they needed to establish more than ten small shops in every city.

Each small shop would specialize in a single category, such as some shops exclusively selling Pills, others specializing in Talismans, and some dealing in Spirit Wine.

Moving these varieties from the Ministry of Works would require at least a dozen stores. For certain types of stores such as Pill shops, Refinery Workshops, Spirit Wine breweries, and Spirit Meal kitchens, it would also be necessary to assign at least one experienced technician to oversee each shop.

This would create a significant gap in terms of talent recruitment, so they would need to simultaneously earn Spirit Stones, cultivate talent, and expand their presence.

When Liu Changsheng and Xu Lun had organized the first batch of personnel and were preparing to board the Flying Boat to Fengwu Continent, Wang Hong suddenly emerged from seclusion.

From the Divine Sense secret technique he had acquired, he had gained a secret art that allowed him to impose a restriction on the Nascent Souls of individuals with weaker Divine Sense than his own.

This restriction was meant to protect certain memories within the cultivator's mind and had no effect on the cultivator under normal circumstances.

However, if the cultivator were to mention this part of their memories to someone else or if external forces attempted to access these memories, the restriction would be triggered.

When the restriction was activated, it would completely destroy these memories, inevitably causing some damage to the Nascent Soul.

All the selected individuals were gathered in a Great Hall, totaling a thousand people.

Because apart from establishing shops and intelligence personnel, they also needed sufficient martial strength for protection. Otherwise, small shops without a solid foundation would struggle to survive in the Immortal Cultivator City.

As a result, among the group heading to Fengwu Continent, combat personnel constituted the majority.

These combat personnel would not be dispersed into every shop but would form a separate team.

This team would establish an independent Guardian Hall in Lin Hai City, with a function similar to that of a security escort in the Mortal Realm.

They would specialize in tasks like long-distance escort missions and safeguarding residences, charging a certain amount of Spirit Stones based on the task's difficulty.

This arrangement ensured the safety of many shops in Lin Hai City and allowed them to earn some Spirit Stones on the side.

Moreover, if hundreds of cultivators gathered together and had nothing to do all day while protecting specific shops, it wouldn't take long for others to connect the dots.

When Wang Hong entered the Great Hall, all one thousand people saluted in unison.

"As you are about to depart for Fengwu Continent to work diligently for the development of Great Chu Immortal Nation, on behalf of all the citizens of Great Chu Immortal Nation, I express my gratitude for your efforts!" Wang Hong said, bowing to everyone, and the thousand people reciprocated the gesture.

"I have come today not only to bid you farewell but also for another matter. As you all know, the Cultivation World is full of mysterious methods, and in case unscrupulous cultivators extract detailed information about Great Chu Immortal Nation from you, it could spell disaster for us. I do not doubt your loyalty, but there are countless methods in the Cultivation World that are hard to guard against, and no one can guarantee that information won't leak from them. Therefore, this time, I need to place a restriction on each of you to ensure that information remains secure. I hope you can understand."

Wang Hong finished speaking and once again bowed, apologizing as a sovereign. The individuals couldn't bear the direct burden and hastily returned the gesture.

They had all been carefully selected for their loyalty, and they were willing to accept the restrictions Wang Hong mentioned. After all, they had never considered betraying Great Chu Immortal Nation.

Since everyone expressed their acceptance, Wang Hong proceeded to place the restrictions on each of them.

In reality, these restrictions were a form of Rune, manipulated by Divine Sense to shape Spiritual Power into Runes. These Runes were then combined into formations, creating different effects.

For these Divine Sense restrictions, all the power came from the Divine Sense of the caster.
