Chapter 188: Such a Good Thing Exists in This World?

Shortly after Immortal Net Delivery went online, discussions on Immortal Net Weibo were buzzing.

The term “Immortal Net Delivery” shot to the top of the trending topics.

“This Immortal Net Delivery is incredibly convenient! You can send things from home and have them delivered directly to the recipient’s door, and it’s so cheap! I love it!”

“I’ll never use merchant convoys again. Last time, I hired one to send immortal fruits to a friend in Chongming City, and those bastards ate more than half of it! They took my spirit stones and ate my fruits. It made me furious!”

“Delivery even has compensation? I send pills to my parents every month. A round trip takes three or four days, which disrupts my cultivation. I never trusted anyone else to do it. Now, with Immortal Net Delivery, I’m reassured. If something gets lost, they compensate. I’ll give it a try right away!”

“A friend asked me to buy a Bright Foundation Pill from the Xu family, but I’ve never had time to deliver it. Immortal Net Delivery is a lifesaver!”

“I recently talked to my partner, and she was always out of breath, saying she was tired from late-night sword practice. So I bought her a spiritual sword as a surprise. I was worried I wouldn’t have time to visit, but now with Immortal Net Delivery, it’s so convenient!”

“I suggest the friend above should go visit. There might be a surprise…”

“+1!”

On Immortal Net Weibo, discussions about Immortal Net Delivery were insanely popular.

Most cultivators had extremely high praise for Immortal Net Delivery because it genuinely brought great convenience to their lives.

If they suddenly needed to send something to distant relatives or friends, previously they had to travel over mountains and through the night.

But now, they could just use the Immortal Net Delivery app to send it directly. It was incredibly comfortable.

Various factions also paid close attention to Immortal Net Delivery right away.

After understanding its features, many leaders of smaller factions were tempted.

Their shops in the market often needed deliveries, but they had few strong cultivators in the sect. A single delivery could take ten days to half a month, delaying their cultivation. Everyone found it troublesome and pushed the task onto others.

If they used Immortal Net Delivery, they could send goods to the shop with just a small fee. Wouldn’t that save everyone a lot of trouble?

No wonder Heavenly Origin Saint Master’s applications were always so enticing!

Leaders of major factions weren’t fools either. Shortly after Immortal Net Delivery went online, they understood its operational and profit models.

They were amazed. Heavenly Origin Saint Master was truly a genius.

Most of them had seen disciples sending things home or receiving cultivation resources from their families. For those who lived far away, sending resources took at least a month for a round trip. It was troublesome and risky.

There had been cases where disciples’ families were eaten by monsters while delivering resources.

But they turned a blind eye to it. However, Heavenly Origin Saint Master, who had been in the cultivation world for just over twenty years, saw the business opportunity and created Immortal Net Delivery, solving the delivery problem in the cultivation world.

Compared to Heavenly Origin Saint Master’s keen insight, they felt vastly inferior.

No wonder Heavenly Origin Saint Master could lead his Sacred Land to great wealth. That was the difference.

Some leaders were puzzled, though. “Can this Immortal Net Delivery really make money?”

“The personnel expenses alone are significant, amounting to 100,000 high-grade spirit stones per year.”

“Plus, using teleportation arrays for delivery is a huge expense.”

“With such high costs, Immortal Net Delivery’s fees are still so low — only twenty low-grade spirit stones for a delivery from Fire Flame City to Snow Crystal City — won’t they lose money?”

“Heavenly Origin Saint Master can’t be providing a welfare service, subsidizing spirit stones to solve the delivery problem in the cultivation world, right?”

Someone immediately clarified, “No, it won’t lose money. As long as there are enough deliveries, and a large number of deliveries are transmitted at once, the cost of the teleportation arrays will be spread out across each package, reducing the cost to a negligible amount.”

This explanation gained much agreement. Indeed, with Immortal Net Delivery’s excellent service, fast delivery, and low fees, many cultivators would surely choose it. Once the teleportation array costs were spread across many deliveries, they would indeed become very low.

Considering the high discussion rate on Immortal Net Weibo, there seemed to be a huge market.

At this moment, even some second- and third-tier factions were tempted by Immortal Net Delivery. Could they use it for their sect’s supplies too?

As long as they bought insurance, even if something got lost, Immortal Net Delivery would fully compensate.

So, using delivery saved spirit stones and provided peace of mind.

Immortal Net Delivery was really great!

By evening, the elders of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land gathered, looking at the rave reviews of Immortal Net Delivery on Immortal Net Weibo.

They were bewildered, exchanging glances. They had previously thought the demand for such a delivery service would be low, but now almost all cultivators on Immortal Net Weibo were praising its convenience.

Many second- and third-tier faction elders had even inquired at Heavenly Origin Pavilions about discounts for handling all their sect’s deliveries through Immortal Net Delivery.

The backend data showed that today alone, three million people placed orders, sending packages via Immortal Net Delivery.

This number wasn’t particularly high, with an average price of just three low-grade spirit stones per order, generating a total income of 900 high-grade spirit stones. After deducting couriers’ commissions and teleportation array costs, they earned only 200 high-grade spirit stones.

However, as the first day’s performance of Immortal Net Delivery, this was already impressive. Their products usually gained more popularity over time.

“Indeed, our foresight was lacking!”

The Foreign Affairs Elder sighed.

The other elders nodded. They had underestimated the market demand for delivery services. Given the current situation, the demand was far greater than they had imagined.

Their Saint Master’s foresight was indeed superior.

—

In the Ten Thousand Demonic Mountain Range, a team of Foundation Establishment cultivators emerged from the outskirts, everyone injured and looking battered.

However, they all wore smiles, indicating a fruitful harvest.

At the foot of the mountain market, they quickly found their usual shop and handled their month’s worth of spoils.

They gained a substantial haul this time, with each person receiving thirty medium-grade spirit stones.

“Guys, shall we go to Spring Phoenix Pavilion?”

“Sure, let’s go!”

“I almost got killed by that Black Wind Boar. I need to relax with Xiaowu!”

“Old Zhang, coming along?”

With spirit stones in hand, they were eager, but a middle-aged man in his fifties shook his head, declining the offer.

“No, no, you guys go ahead. I won’t be joining.”

His companions sighed, “You’re going to send resources to your son again, aren’t you?”

The middle-aged man nodded. “I talked to my son recently. He said in six months, the sect will hold a grand competition. If he can get a good ranking, he might be taken as a personal disciple by a Golden Core elder.

“I don’t have much talent, and I’ll probably never break through to the late Foundation Establishment Realm. But my son is different. He’s talented, already at Foundation Establishment at thirty. With my support, he’ll definitely break through faster!

“If he becomes a Golden Core elder’s disciple, his chances of reaching Golden Core will greatly increase.

“So, how can I waste money? It’s about my son’s future.”

Talking about his son, the middle-aged man’s face, usually bitter, was filled with pride.

His friend, after a moment of silence, advised, “But you’re injured. You need at least half a month to recover. Otherwise, with a journey of over 100,000 miles, it’ll take you twenty days to get there. You won’t make it.”

The middle-aged man shook his head. “I won’t rest. Because the journey is long, I need to leave early to avoid delaying my son.”

Everyone fell silent. However, the friend suddenly remembered something and said, “Sending it yourself is too slow. Let Immortal Net Delivery do it. They can deliver in three days, ensuring your son gets the resources without delay!”

The middle-aged man was taken aback and quickly refused. He didn’t trust others. Previously, to earn more spirit stones, he had hired a merchant convoy to deliver resources, but his son never received them. Six months of hard-earned spirit stones went down the drain, making him miserable for a long time.

His friend understood his concern and explained, “It’s not those unreliable merchant convoys. It’s a new feature from Heavenly Origin Sacred Land. It’s their business.

“Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, you can trust that, right?”

The man hesitated. He had a Heavenly Origin Communicator but only used it to contact his son. He didn’t use Immortal Net Weibo or other features.

Still shaking his head, he said, “Heavenly Origin Sacred Land’s stuff is always expensive. Even a low-grade artifact costs a medium-grade spirit stone. I can’t afford it! I’ll deliver it myself.”

His friend grew frustrated. “Heavenly Origin Sacred Land’s other items are indeed expensive!

“But Immortal Net Delivery is really not expensive. It’s actually very cheap. Sending things to your son’s sect will only cost one low-grade spirit stone, and if it gets lost, Heavenly Origin Sacred Land will compensate!”

The man was stunned.

Such a good thing exists?

Hiring an unreliable merchant convoy costs at least four or five low-grade spirit stones, and they might not even help willingly.

Immortal Net Delivery costs just one?

And they compensate if things get lost?

Incredible.

Under his friend’s guidance, he quickly found Immortal Net Delivery on his communicator and read through the details.

Soon, a smile spread across his face.

Fast, cheap, and with compensation.

It was perfect.

Though he couldn’t see his son while delivering resources, the other benefits were significant.

His son could receive resources early, and he could save time to earn more spirit stones to support his son’s cultivation.

Immortal Net Delivery was simply fantastic.
