My Longevity Simulation
chapter-192

In the twelfth life, only a small group of people, including He Zhenghao, were the first to learn that the Spirit Mist Grass Island had been destroyed, and subsequently, they prepared to speculate on this opportunity.

From beginning to end, the impact of the Spirit Mist Grass incident was limited to a few areas.

However, in this era, when the puppetmaster changed from the Greenwood Rebirth True Lord in the twelfth life to Jiao Xiuyuan, whose cultivation level was unknown but whose business spread throughout the entire cultivation world, there was a significant change in the situation.

Countless puppets acted as propaganda machines, spreading the news of the destruction of the Spirit Mist Grass Island through various channels, quietly propagating throughout the entire Xuanhuang Realm in half a day.

Even if only one percent of the cultivators who heard this news had speculative thoughts, and among those who had such thoughts, only one percent took action, it was still an extremely large number.

Moreover, in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, where accumulating contribution points through ordinary means was quite difficult, such an "obvious" opportunity to make a big profit attracted a considerable number of cultivators who were not willing to miss out.

So, in reality, the number of cultivators involved in speculating on Spirit Mist Grass far exceeded this number.

Although most cultivators were not very affluent, they could still afford one or two Spirit Mist Grass.

With the hope of making a profit, numerous cultivators, in the fastest possible time, rushed back into the Tianxuan Mirror, competing to buy Spirit Mist Grass.

Therefore, half a day after He Zhenghao sent a message to Li Fan.

The price of Spirit Mist Grass rose from 22 contribution points per plant to 35 points.

This was ten points higher than the peak price of 25 points in the twelfth life.

Furthermore, the upward trend showed no sign of ending.

Excited messages from He Zhenghao continued to come.

"Haha, fellow Daoist Li Fan, I was right, wasn't I? The price of Spirit Mist Grass will definitely rise again!"

"In just half a day, it has risen by fifty percent, and I've recovered all my previous losses!"

"Fellow Daoist, remember, don't sell the Spirit Mist Grass in your hands now. The news of the reduction in the production of Spirit Mist Grass has now spread like wildfire outside. I don't know how many cultivators are joining the buying frenzy."

"We all agree that it's far from the time to sell. At least, it will rise another fifty percent!"

"Hahaha, I'm about to purchase my Nascent Soul technique!"

He Zhenghao was extremely excited.

Li Fan replied perfunctorily, praising him with a few words.

However, his attention was focused on his clone.

"Fellow Daoist Jiao, I think the price has already risen a lot. Can we cash out now?" Looking at the steadily rising numbers in the Tianxuan Mirror in front of him, Li Fan tentatively asked.

Jiao Xiuyuan's face showed little excitement. He closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, then shook his head, "No, it's not time yet."

"There are still greater variables yet to come. Just wait patiently."

"Greater variables?" Li Fan paced back and forth in the Thousand Mile Hall, constantly pondering in his mind.

"According to common sense, the price of Spirit Mist Grass has already risen to a very high level. I don't know what this so-called variable is."

But Li Fan knew that with the existence of the Five Element Subworlds, no matter how high the price of Spirit Mist Grass rose, the final outcome would surely be a plummet to the ground.

Even if he didn't have time to cash out, at most, he would lose ten thousand contribution points.

He could easily earn it back, so he was completely calm as he watched the situation develop.

Like Li Fan, many others decided to wait patiently.

For example, the Greenwood Rebirth True Lord.

He held nearly ten thousand Spirit Mist Grass plants cultivated in his own cave. Some time ago, he accidentally heard that the alliance headquarters seemed to have discovered a super large-scale wood-attribute subworld. There were countless spiritual plants and herbs inside.

He feared that the price of Spirit Mist Grass would plummet in the future.

So, he began to systematically sell the Spirit Mist Grass in his hands. Although he tried to slow down the sale as much as possible, suppressing the price fluctuations to within the usual range, the price of Spirit Mist Grass still uncontrollably dropped from the higher price of 21 points to the historical low of 18 points.

Greenwood Rebirth True Lord instantly realized that he was definitely not the only one who knew this information.

However, for the sake of their own interests, everyone tacitly chose to slowly release their goods, preventing the price from collapsing too suddenly.

Just as Greenwood Rebirth True Lord had sold more than half of the ten thousand Spirit Mist Grass plants, he suddenly realized that the price of Spirit Mist Grass had not only stopped falling abruptly but also began a large-scale rebound.

Before he could react, the price had risen back to its previous level.

This anomaly indicated something unusual.

Greenwood Rebirth True Lord immediately mobilized his connections and found the possible cause of the incident.

The Spirit Mist Grass Island was destroyed, and the Spirit Mist Grass cultivated on the island was annihilated.

The keen Greenwood Rebirth True Lord immediately realized that this was a rare opportunity.

So, he decisively switched from selling to buying, repurchasing all the Spirit Mist Grass he had previously sold.

Although he suffered a loss in the process, the price of Spirit Mist Grass quickly skyrocketed further.

In a single stroke, he turned losses into gains.

The fierceness of this upward trend made Greenwood Rebirth True Lord feel both surprised and a little anxious.

Greenwood Rebirth True Lord, who focused on planting various spiritual plants, understood Spirit Mist Grass better than most cultivators in the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance.

The price of 35 points clearly exceeded its inherent value.

Not to mention the existence of the wood-attribute cave, Spirit Mist Grass would surely eventually plummet naturally.

However, Greenwood Rebirth True Lord, who had decided to sell the over ten thousand Spirit Mist Grass in his possession, hesitated as he watched the seemingly endless rise in its price.

"Maybe... let's wait another moment?"

"This sudden surge is obviously abnormal. There are traces of many people pushing it behind the scenes."

"Perhaps, it will rise a little more?"

Once the thought arose, it was impossible to let it go.

After all, for Greenwood Rebirth True Lord, every single increase in the price of Spirit Mist Grass meant an additional ten thousand contribution points.

Even for a Nascent Soul True Lord, obtaining over ten thousand contributions was not so easy.

In his daily efforts to care for these Spirit Mist Grass plants, Greenwood Rebirth True Lord had truly spared no effort, wasting a lot of energy.

Working tirelessly, he could only earn a few tens of thousands of contribution points for his hard work.

Yet now, in the blink of an eye, he easily obtained a similar profit.

The young Greenwood Rebirth True Lord, at this moment, still didn't understand the principle that a floating profit is not a real profit.

Faced with the rapidly growing wealth on the account, Greenwood Rebirth True Lord was lost.

He decided that when the price of Spirit Mist Grass rose a bit more, he would sell the Spirit Mist Grass in his hands.

"With the news of the discovery of the wood-attribute cave, the prices of spiritual plants will definitely decrease in the future."

"Earning contributions will also become more and more difficult."

"The opportunity is rare. If I don't take advantage of this opportunity to make a final profit, I will definitely regret it later."

Watching the price continue to rise, Greenwood Rebirth True Lord gradually became obsessed.

He easily convinced himself.
