Chapter 167: Avoiding Advertising Fees? Bypassing the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land! (Part 1)
Looking at the surprised expressions of the elders, the Foreign Affairs Elder sighed and spoke, “Surprised, aren’t you? But let me tell you, this is the result of the Saint Master’s request to limit the number of advertisements!
“The number of advertisements per day is limited!
“Otherwise, the advertising fees could be even higher!”
After the words of the Foreign Affairs Elder fell, the elders were once again in an uproar.
An advertising income of a hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones, and this was still the result of limiting the quantity?
It was simply unbelievable.
But why limit the number of advertisements?
Elder Wang Changchun, the Refining Elder, asked puzzledly, “Saint Master, why impose such restrictions?”
Elder Wang voiced the thoughts of everyone present.
Nowadays, the elders were all convinced by Ye Chen.
They knew that Ye Chen’s decisions must have reasons behind them.
They just wanted to know why the restriction was necessary.
Ye Chen, sitting on the throne, was in a good mood as he explained to everyone, “The essence of advertising business on the Immortal Net Weibo relies on popularity.
“If a few advertisements appear and don’t affect the use, no one will mind.
“But what if, upon opening the Immortal Net Weibo, instead of seeing a couple of statuses, you’re bombarded with a dozen advertisements? Will it affect your mood?
“If you check the trending list and find that there are hardly any interesting things, and all you see are advertisements.
“In that case, cultivators will inevitably lose their expectations for the Immortal Net Weibo and trending topics, and gradually stop using them.
“And once there’s no popularity, who will still advertise on the Immortal Net Weibo?”
In the past, Weibo was like this, full of advertisements everywhere.
The actual decline in popularity was very severe.
It relied entirely on bots and alternate accounts to fabricate the appearance of continued popularity.
The Immortal Net Weibo didn’t need to exploit its users like this.
Cultivators had long lifespans.
It wouldn’t be a problem for the Immortal Net Weibo to earn spirit stones for thousands or tens of thousands of years.
Ye Chen naturally wouldn’t ruin the foundation of the Immortal Net Weibo for short-term gains.
Hearing Ye Chen’s words, the elders suddenly realized.
Deity Transformation...
Communicating with heaven and earth, once he broke through, it would be a completely new world.
And with his accumulation of perfect breakthroughs all the way, once he achieved the Deity Transformation Realm, he would be invincible.
That was not an exaggeration.
Ye Chen was quite looking forward to it!

In the outside world, the appearance of advertisements on the Immortal Net Weibo had changed many things.
Before, in order for various products to sell well, they could only rely on word of mouth accumulation, a slow and steady process.
Even if the products were very good, it would take a long time for them to truly become popular.
However, most cultivators had long lifespans, so waiting for three to five years was acceptable.
But the appearance of advertisements on the Immortal Net Weibo completely changed this situation of relying solely on word of mouth and passively waiting.
With just one advertisement, everyone knew about it.
Skipping the accumulation stage directly, the products began to sell well immediately.
The benefits brought by advertisements far exceeded the expenses of advertising.
Therefore...
After Xu Family’s Bright Foundation Pill became popular on the Immortal Net Weibo on the second day, one after another, major powers began to advertise.
The Hundred Flowers Sect recently released a new spirit tool, which had been lukewarm in sales.
After purchasing a trending ad, it sold out immediately.
The Acacia Sect opened a large Acacia Pavilion in the Great Seal City.
It was equipped with spatial arrays, with an internal space covering dozens of square kilometers.
It had artificial mountains, rivers, forests, grasslands, and diverse scenes.
After advertising, it became popular on its opening day.
Male cultivators who heard the news flocked in endless streams, and there was even a long line outside the door.
On that day, the female cultivators in the Acacia Pavilion saw a surge in their cultivation bases, filling the place to the brim.
All of this was the result of advertising on the Immortal Net Weibo, which made major powers even more eager for Immortal Net Weibo advertisements.
Unfortunately, the Immortal Net Weibo had a limited number of advertisements each day.
Even if they carried spirit stones, they had to queue up.
