Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God Chapter 1551 Currency

Chapter 1551 Currency

But… It seemed that Aritzia had truly pissed Clara off, because she implemented two more things immediately that were only supposed to be introduced later on. This could only be described as a declaration of war: Mortal Network Library and Virtual Stones.
Virtual Stones were a virtual currency system that was perfectly encrypted. As a result, unlike the Sapientia Bank, transactions couldn't be tracked and tied to your name.
The instant it was introduced, Sapientia Bank Accounts began to close one after another. Soon, as much as 10% had left, while others were only waiting to confirm the security of VS before likely making the move themselves. Once VS became more widespread and could be used as easily as one's Sapientia Bank Card, there would be no competition remaining. Who liked their actions constantly being watched by looming eyes? Not everyone had the depth of array alchemy needed to escape the eyes of the Sapientia.
Plus, if the description was as fanciful as it sounded, it was too convenient. If one bought the new Mortal Devices Clara promised to introduce in just 1 year, it would be possible to have your device directly absorb the energy of your energy stones and add to your VS total. You wouldn't even have to go to Sapientia Quadrant like you had to before! As long as you were within the range of a Mortal Tower, you could freely add and take from your funds!
However, while this was a blow, the next was completely gut wrenching for the Sapientia and likely one that would shake their ancestors awake. The Mortal Library!
What gave the Sapientia so much power in the tower quadrants was their control over information. However, the Mortal Library shook this foundation to its core.
With the Mortal Library, one could register under one of two titles: Reader and Writer.
Readers were exactly what they seemed like. They could freely browse books for a fee, or even for free if it was denoted as low-ranking information, or 'common' knowledge.
Writers were different. They had a ranking system of their own from the lowest 1st rank to the 9th, and the above Star Rankings. This was irrelevant to cultivation and purely decided on the level of knowledge one could provide. Though, those with higher cultivation usually had more to give.
As a writer, you could exchange information for free reads. But, your best privilege was selling your information for a profit. If you wrote just one well received book, you could live the rest of your life in leisure as readers continuously rented a virtual version to read.
For a martial world who was so used to almost every book being authored by a Sapientia, this was an absolutely jarring change, and one that made those laughing in the upper echelons frown. It wasn't that they didn't side with Clara on this move. They too didn't like the overbearing nature of the Sapientia. But, there was an understanding between these upper echelon members… One shouldn't push an individual too far into a corner, or else it could result in a severe backlash.
However, it seemed like Clara was dead set on making the Sapientia her mortal enemy. She would force them to the point where they had nowhere to turn! Then, they'd be forced to show the world their true face! This was the price for enraging a Sacharro woman.
As though to confirm this, another bomb shell announcement was made.
Within a year, the Celestial Corners and territories on the Saint and Celestial floors would begin to sell pills. No longer would they hold back and not take the market share of the Sapientia. Since the Sapientia were inferior, they would be shown as such to the rest of the world!
When the elders of various clans began to read the descriptions of various pills, they felt their heads were spinning. Could pills really be created to this level? No, these weren't pills, they were heavenly treasures!
80% pure condensing pills? Soul refinement type pills? Constitution cleansing and awakening pills? This was too much!
According to this, even Meridian Nurturing Pills of 80% purity weren't impossible either if you were willing to pay a price! This was too much!
Wait a minute, this wasn't the most important part… Didn't this prove that Clara and Dyon were connected in some way? Or was it that Clara was relying on Dyon to deal a blow to the Sapientia for daring to cross her?
Too many upheavals were taking place at once. So many that even when Clara announced that the only rules of the Mortal Network was that no one could replicate Virtual Stones, The Navigator, or the Mortal Library, many simply waved their hands. So what? We accept your regulations with wide smiles! This Mortal Network… It would lead their tower quadrants into a new era, the era of information!
It didn't need to be said that Dyon, who already now had more money than he knew what to do with, had suddenly been washed over with even more wealth. Now, his annual earnings wouldn't lose out to the first ranked Star Clan even one bit. In fact, it was even a bit more!
However, Dyon didn't do this for money. As a man of the mortal realm, he understood just how valuable information was to a prospering society. While he was technically strengthening enemies he would have to subdue in the future, he found it to be worth it. The end of the Mortal Plane was approaching and he knew that his strength alone would be enough. Even if it meant a harder path ahead, he needed everyone to grow stronger!
Of course, stomping down on the faces of the Sapientia was a nice added bonus.
There was no doubt that they'd react violently. But, Clara and Dyon didn't care. The Sapientia had already made enemies of the wrong family!

On the middle tier, Madeleine's rage was still shaking the skies. Flaming Lily Sect disciples hovered in the air as they rained down fire upon their flightless enemies.
