The online library, social network, and market place are for the future when the internet comes online. For now, he has decided to write interesting novels, make good music, and make art. He didn't rush to do all of them. The first thing he did was to sort out the feasibility of the three options. "Cultivators don't appreciate art. At least I haven't heard of them doing so. Not unless the art was made from the carcass of a great beast." "Besides, art is difficult to proliferate. Even if it could, the value of art is in its uniqueness. No one would value something that is a copy, and I don't have time to make copies of art." "As for music, it is somewhat appreciated, but only in bars and taverns. It is just like plays in that aspect. It is not popular among cultivators and mortals." "The most profitable business would be writing novels. I just need to make a single book. It can be copied and sold everywhere." "It doesn't matter if it is widely successful. I just need to make a profit. As long as I make a profit, I will be able to expand my dojo and earn merit." He decided to settle on writing books, as it is the entertainment product that requires the least amount of work on his part. It is also the entertainment product that requires the least amount of work to popularize and has the potential to turn into the most profitable investment in this world. After all, both mortals and cultivators read. Though reading is not common among cultivators. But reading is the cheapest option to produce and also the cheapest for buyers to acquire, so it can reach more people. There are already newspapers in this world. All he needs to do is copy the books from his previous life and use the newspaper distribution system already available to advertise and sell his books. He has a certain confidence that his books will be popular, as he plans to sell various genres such as romance, science fiction, drama, crime mystery, horror, and magic fantasy. These books will have popular American classics like Little Women, The Crucible, The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Scarlet Letter, The Grapes of Wrath, The Catcher in the Rye, Moby Dick, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and Gone With The Wind. He also plans to write Chinese classics like Journey to the West and Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Even Greek classics like Oedipus Rex, The Odyssey, and the Iliad. With so many options on hand, he only needs one of them ti be a success. As long as one of the books becomes successful, his plan to expand his dojo will become successful too. After making up his mind about what to do, he reached out to Blood Root for his advice and to ask if he could work together with the Apex Alliance on his plan. Blood Root agreed to work together with him for 20% of the profits. He will write the books, and they will distribute them for sale throughout the Five Veins region. With the corporation set up, Blood Root began working on the contract while he began working on the first book to write. He chose The Odyssey as it was the easiest to adapt to the world of Ethera. The Odyssey has elements of fantasy, which gives it a lot of things in common with this world. Writing didn't take him a long time. He wasn't even sure it was writing because all he did was to imprint the story from his mind into an information crystal. He was done in two hours. Most of that time was spent making adjustments to the story. So the story was ready by the time Blood Root came over with the contract for him to sign. He liked how professional everything was. It gave him assurance to become a hands-off partner. After he handed the book over, he inquired about how to help Roar break through to the second mortal coil. Bloodroot also helped him with that problem. He told him about the Blood Infusion pill that helps beasts to transcend. The Blood Infusion pill is cheap, but it will only work on beasts that have the potential to reach the second mortal coil. The Blood Infusion pill will only hasten the natural process. For beasts that don't have the potential to break through naturally, things become trickier and more expensive. But he didn't have to worry about that for now since Roar had the potential to reach the second mortal coil on his own. So after seeing Black Root off, he went to the medicine hall to acquire the Blood Infusion pill. It cost him 500 points to acquire it, which was cheap. Then he returned home to cultivate. He didn't help Roar break through yet because he was waiting for better conditions. The condition he was waiting for was a better cultivation environment. It is specifically the one that can be found in the cultivation room of the superior accommodations on the floor above his floor. He didn't have to wait long for this condition to become available. The end of the month came two days after he set his record for the fighting excellence test. No one managed to break that record, so he was given access to one of the best ten rooms available to disciples. He will continue to have access to the room until someone among the new disciples breaks his record. He didn't think that his record would be broken. So on the way to his new house, he didn't have the feeling that he was only going there temporarily. He thought to himself in jest, "It might as well be my second house." He chose to leave his current house for his superior accommodations as soon as he received the notification of his victory. He wasn't the only one who made this decision, so he met some of his neighbors on his way up.
