The Sacred Land Is Going Bankrupt, I Invented a Mobile Phone!-Chapter 361

Chapter 361: Filming Short Videos! The Peerless Fairy!

“Finally, it’s done!” A smile of accomplishment spread across Ye Chen’s face.

He felt a deep sense of satisfaction as his great work was complete.

The reason?

The short-video app had taken nearly five months of effort from him, a grand Great Advancement cultivator, before it was finally completed.

The difficulty and scale of the project were immense.

Yet, the most challenging part wasn’t the app itself.

It was upgrading the Immortal Net Image Stones to include video recording and editing functions.

At the same time, Ye Chen had also upgraded the big data recommendation algorithm to version 2.0.

Unlike other applications, the short-video app required an even higher level of accuracy in content recommendations.

Thus, the original data algorithms needed further refinement.

The new 2.0 version no longer just recommended videos based on a cultivator’s cultivation level, gender, location, or sect.

It now incorporated a user’s activity on other Immortal Net apps to make even smarter recommendations.

For example:

If a cultivator bought a pill furnace on Immortal Net Taobao, the short-video app would push more videos about furnace reviews and pill refinement.

If a cultivator purchased a body-refining technique in the Immortal Net Sutra Pavilion, the app would suggest body-refinement-related videos.

If a cultivator followed a bunch of beautiful women on Immortal Net Weibo, the app would recognize them as a lustful person and push more beauty-related videos.

In short, the new big data model would more accurately determine user preferences and label them as lustful, cultivation fanatic, or other relevant tags.

Then, it would push the 23 most relevant videos for each user.

Moreover, this 2.0 big data upgrade wouldn’t just benefit the short-video app.

It could also enhance previous Immortal Net applications, making it easier for cultivators to discover the techniques, treasures, and items they needed, ultimately driving up transactions and increasing revenue.

Overall, the future of the short-video app looked incredibly promising.

Ye Chen rubbed his spatial ring, stood up, and stretched lazily.

The short-video app was ready.

But this was just the beginning.

The most important part of short videos was content.

No matter how good the algorithm was, without engaging content, it would be nothing more than an illusion. So, the next step was to work on content.

And as for content? That would be the easiest part.

Without hesitation, Ye Chen used his Little Spirit Communicator to summon the elders for a meeting at the Saint Master’s Hall.

At that moment, he also received a communication from the Jade Pond Saint Master.

Her voice sounded strange, hesitant and uncertain.

She said she would be visiting the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land soon, accompanied by her mother, Fairy Qingcheng.

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Why was Fairy Qingcheng coming this time?

But then he thought about how the Jade Pond Sacred Land was home to countless female cultivators, which meant an endless supply of short-video content creators.

So, if they were coming, let them come.

It was the perfect opportunity to discuss having Jade Pond Sacred Land mobilize its female cultivators to film short videos.

On the towering Kunlun Mountains, the Jade Pond Sacred Land was as majestic as ever.

Since forming a close relationship with the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, Jade Pond Sacred Land had gained a significant advantage in various Immortal Net applications.

By uploading their cultivation techniques early to the Immortal Net Sutra Pavilion, their earnings had multiplied several times over.

With abundant spirit stones, their territory had naturally become even grander.

Moreover, after Elder Qingcheng returned from Mingwang Province, she had become one of only two Great Advancement cultivators there, further elevating Jade Pond Sacred Land’s status.

Now, they were undeniably the second most powerful force in Great Yan Province.

The female disciples of Jade Pond Sacred Land were immensely proud.

However, in recent days, the elders had noticed something odd about their Saint Master.

She often seemed lost in thought, her breathtaking face occasionally showing hesitation, but more often revealing a shy, gentle smile.

She even muttered to herself at times, resembling a maiden in love.

Could it be that their Saint Master had finally made progress with the Heavenly Origin Saint Master?

The elders secretly speculated, feeling both curious and expectant.

After all, the Heavenly Origin Saint Master was a supreme powerhouse, unmatched even in Mingwang Province.

Not only was he incredibly handsome, but he had also created the miraculous Little Spirit Communicator.

If the two of them were to unite, it would truly be a match made in heaven.

Compared to him, the so-called “Gu genius” Gu Yunyun was merely the leader of a first-rate family was nowhere near qualified to be with the Heavenly Origin Saint Master.

The female cultivators of Jade Pond Sacred Land had never liked Gu Yunyun.

In fact, they weren’t alone, female cultivators across the entire cultivation world held the same sentiment.

After all, a man as outstanding as the Heavenly Origin Saint Master. If we can’t have him, why should you?

What right does Gu Yunyun have to deserve such an extraordinary man?

Inside her private chamber, the Jade Pond Saint Master sat on a jade stool, dressed in pristine white robes that accentuated her flawless, translucent skin.

Her exquisite figure leaned slightly forward, her hands resting under her soft chin as her bright eyes sparkled.

“I won’t wait any longer! Today is the day!” Her long dress swayed as she stood up, determination filling her gaze.

Ye Chen’s brilliance was becoming more and more dazzling.

Not to mention the Great Yan Province, lately, even in the Mingwang Province, many noble women have been showing great interest in Ye Chen.

These women follow Ye Chen’s Weibo, leave comments under his posts without reservation, and have even made it to the trending topics multiple times.

It’s clear that Ye Chen is highly sought after.

Although the Jade Pond Saint Master was proud, believing that even in the Mingwang Province, she is among the top female cultivators with no equal, deep down, she still feels a little worried, afraid that Ye Chen might really be swayed by those female cultivators and lose his affection for her.

So, she wouldn’t wait any longer!

Today, she has decided to resign from her position as Saint Master.

She would go and find Ye Chen.

But just at that moment, a gentle voice called out, “What decision are you making?”

The Jade Pond Saint Master immediately froze.

It was the voice of her mother, the Fairy Qingcheng.

Looking at her mother, dressed in a deep purple robe, who seemed more like an elder sister than a parent, the Jade Pond Saint Master felt a little embarrassed.

Although she definitely planned to tell her mother about this matter, as someone who had always been proud, she now found it difficult to admit that she was stepping down from her position for a man.

So, after hesitating for a moment, she put on a serious expression and asked, “Mother, what do you think of the Heavenly Origin Saint Master and the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land?”

Fairy Qingcheng slightly lifted her bright eyes, surprised by the question.

But thinking about Ye Chen’s astonishing talent and battle prowess, and then recalling that he controlled the mystical Little Spirit Communicator, which brought endless wealth to the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, she sighed and said, “In another hundred years, if nothing unexpected happens, the Heavenly Origin Saint Master will become the number one cultivator in the immortal world.

“And that Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, although its foundation is somewhat lacking, as long as it has enough time, surpassing the Dao De Sect and the Feathering Sect to become the number one force is only a matter of time.”

The Jade Pond Saint Master nodded. “I think so too!”

“Moreover, the immortal world has never seen a genius like the Heavenly Origin Saint Master before.

“With Little Spirit Communicator, the amount of wealth the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land can accumulate is beyond imagination, completely unprecedented.

“Our Jade Pond Sacred Land has already benefited greatly just by having a good relationship with the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land. If we could take that relationship a step further, we could reach an unprecedented peak, restoring the glory of the ancient era.”

Fairy Qingcheng furrowed her delicate brows. She understood her daughter’s temperament better than anyone.

Since when did she care about such things?

She looked at her daughter, whose beauty was in no way inferior to her own, and asked in confusion, “So?”

The Jade Pond Saint Master suddenly smiled. “So, our Jade Pond should form a marriage alliance with the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land!”

“If a female immortal from our Jade Pond Sacred Land were to become the Dao Companion of the Heavenly Origin Saint Master, it would be ideal.” Fairy Qingcheng arched a delicate brow.

A marriage alliance?

That was quite common among major forces.

Seeing that her mother did not object, the Jade Pond Saint Master felt a surge of joy in her heart.

She had always been proud and found it hard to admit she was stepping down for a man. So, she came up with this reasoning instead.

This way, resigning as Saint Master would not be for herself but for the entire Jade Pond Sacred Land.

Absolutely perfect. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

She immediately looked at Fairy Qingcheng with sincerity. “Mother, do you agree with the marriage alliance?

“But the choice of partner is a problem.

“The Heavenly Origin Saint Master is handso— no, he is now a great cultivator in the Great Advancement Realm and has made an illustrious name for himself in the Mingwang Province.

“On Weibo, many noble daughters of Mingwang Province have openly shown their admiration for him.

“Many forces, upon learning that the Heavenly Origin Saint Master has yet to take a Dao Companion, are eager to act.

“So, if we want to arrange a marriage alliance, an ordinary saintess, deacon, or elder from our Jade Pond Sacred Land would not be worthy of him.

“The candidate must be someone of equal status and standing; otherwise, he might refuse.

“After considering everything, I believe I am the most suitable choice.

“But I am the Jade Pond Saint Master, and no Jade Pond Saint Master has ever married before.

“So, I plan to—”

The Jade Pond Saint Master put on an expression of noble sacrifice for her sacred land and was about to continue when Fairy Qingcheng nodded. “I understand!

“The Jade Pond Saint Master indeed cannot marry out. That is the rule.

“So…”

Hearing this, the Jade Pond Saint Master’s face lit up with joy.

But then, Fairy Qingcheng looked at her daughter with a tender gaze. “However, since I am here, how could I let you suffer? That would mean I am an unfit mother.

“So, I shall handle the marriage alliance instead!”

???

The Jade Pond Saint Master’s eyes widened in shock!

What?!

This is not what I had in mind at all!

“Wait, Mother—”

She hurriedly tried to refuse, but Fairy Qingcheng spoke seriously, “I am the Supreme Elder of Jade Pond Sacred Land. My status is not beneath his.

“My cultivation has also reached the Great Advancement Realm, equal to the Heavenly Origin Saint Master.

“As for my appearance, well, there is no need to say more!

“After thinking it through, I am the most suitable candidate.”

The Jade Pond Saint Master felt her heart sink.

“No! Absolutely not! Mother, you have already sacrificed so much for our sacred land. How could I let you endure this burden too?”

“It’s fine. The Heavenly Origin Saint Master is quite handsome and has an elegant demeanor. Besides, since our cultivation levels are similar, we can also share insights and cultivate together. If you think about it, it’s actually a good match, so it’s not really a burden.”

“This isn’t right! I’m your daughter, and I’m already an adult. This would be inappropriate…”

“What does that matter? Our Jade Pond lineage has always passed down this way due to our cultivation method. It’s not as if you were born from an ordinary union. The Heavenly Origin Saint Master will surely not mind.”

“No, no! It should be me taking on this responsibility!”

“My dear daughter, I never knew you were so thoughtful. But the more you insist, the less I can bear to let you do it. That’s why it must be me!”

“…”

The Jade Pond Saint Master was on the verge of tears!

This was not how it was supposed to go!
