In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

"warn!"

"Abnormal fluctuations in the homeowner's soul were detected. This verification has failed."

"After three failed verifications, the risk mechanism will be automatically triggered!"

Looking at the red pop-up, Lu Yuan sighed helplessly.

Sometimes, advanced technology isn't necessarily a good thing. It restricts your actions and makes it difficult to earn extra money.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuan decided to directly implant a trace of his soul imprint on Chu Yunxiao.

Although he was unable to break through the Cosmic Bank's defense mechanisms.

However, cultivators have many ways to control a person.

The simplest way is to leave a mark deep within the other person's soul.

With this mark, he could control Chu Yunxiao's life and death in an instant, without having to worry about the other party's betrayal.

"His physical body is flawless, and his spiritual consciousness is perfect. Could he be a Core Formation cultivator?"

After regaining his senses, Chu Yunxiao finally realized Lu Yuan's terrifying strength and dared not disobey him again.

"I am blind and never expected to be an immortal master in person. Please accept my bow!"

The voice just fell.

He knelt on the ground, bowed his head, and said.

On some remote and desolate planets, Core Formation experts are already able to establish their own sects and become kings and ancestors.

Even in those cultivation kingdoms, Core Formation experts are appointed as Guardian Immortal Masters, and can sit on equal footing with the emperor!

"Don't you want revenge?"

Lu Yuan asked with great interest.

"We are but ordinary mortals, how dare we oppose the immortal master?"

Chu Yunxiao trembled and hurriedly explained.

As the underground emperor of Xuhua City, he naturally knows more secrets than ordinary people.

Despite the Star Alliance's strict internal controls over cultivators and its prohibition on the transmission of any cultivation techniques, they still manage to protect themselves from external influences.

In fact.

Cultivators hold a highly respected status, possessing a position and combat power far exceeding those of other professionals of the same level.

This is the difference between mortals and immortals, which cannot be bridged by external means.

And to some extent.

It is precisely because the cultivators are so powerful that the Star Alliance is so wary and fearful of them!
"Alright, how much funding can you mobilize right now?"

Lu Yuan didn't bother to care whether Chu Yunxiao was genuinely submitting or just pretending.

As long as the soul imprint exists, no matter how dissatisfied the other party is, they can only let themselves be driven by you.

"Reporting to the Immortal Master, it is approximately around one hundred billion star coins."

Chu Yunxiao answered truthfully.

Assets and working capital are two different concepts.

Don't be fooled by the fact that many wealthy people claim to have a net worth of tens of billions; in reality, it's questionable whether they actually have even one-tenth of that in cash flow.

He can mobilize 100 billion star coins at any time, which is already a considerable sum of money.

"Okay, help me open a Universal Bank account first, then transfer 50 billion into it."

Lu Yuan nodded.

The Cosmic Bank spans across major star systems and provides excellent protection for user privacy and security; even many powerful figures in the Star Alliance are not authorized to access its information.

However, the threshold is also very high.

Just opening an account requires at least one billion yuan.

So if you want to determine whether someone is really rich, just see if they have a Universal Bank account.

"Please wait a moment, Immortal Master, I will do it now."

Chu Yunxiao dared not delay and immediately acted according to Lu Yuan's instructions.

It didn't take long.

Lu Yuan then received a text message.

"Dear user, you have successfully opened a Cosmic Bank account, and your account has received a transfer of 50 billion Star Coins!"

"Indeed, a horse won't get fat without night grass, and a person won't get rich without unexpected wealth."

With the large sum of money in his account, Lu Yuan was in high spirits.

Just a few months ago, he was still worried about finding a job after dropping out of school.

But now.

He is already a genuine Core Formation stage expert, and with just a word, he can easily obtain a huge sum of 50 billion.

Life is full of ups and downs, nothing more.

"When I go back this time, I'll buy my parents a nice villa so they can enjoy their retirement."

"Find another group of third-tier martial artists to protect them and ensure their safety."

Lu Yuan pondered to himself.

The best villas on Hulao Star cost only a few billion, which is nothing to him now.

"By the way, do you know why Wang Hao left Shenmu Star and came to Hulao Star instead?"

Lu Yuan suddenly remembered something and immediately asked.

He had asked Wang Hao about it before, but Wang Hao was vague about the matter and unwilling to tell the truth.

Logically speaking, Shenmu Star is teeming with Nascent Soul cultivators and producing numerous Transformation Gods, making it a truly great star for cultivation.

Both its cultivation resources and the number of powerful individuals are countless times greater than those of Hulao Star.

But Wang Hao, an outer disciple of the Ziyun Sect, instead of staying on Shenmu Star to cultivate properly, chose to travel thousands of miles to this remote and impoverished place.

There must be more to the story.

"This is a matter between cultivators, and I know very little about it, but I suppose it is related to some kind of immortal treasure."

Chu Yunxiao pondered for a moment before speaking.

"A celestial treasure?"

Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, unable to imagine what kind of treasure could possibly exist in this godforsaken place like Hulao Star.

Moreover, this planet has been developed for tens of thousands of years, and even if there were any treasures, they would have long since fallen into the hands of the Star Alliance.

“Immortal Master, you are unaware of the fact that Hulao Star is indeed barren and remote, with very few cultivation resources, let alone peerless treasures like immortal treasures.”

"But there are always exceptions, and this matter is also related to Xuhua City."

As if guessing what Lu Yuan was thinking, Chu Yunxiao immediately explained.

"Hundreds of years ago, a dark alien race suddenly descended upon the skies above Xuhua City through a rift in the void."

"Hulao Star paid an extremely heavy price that time, and in the end, it had to ask Shenmu Star for help to finally kill all the dark alien races."

"According to the information I've gathered, it's rumored that even a fourth-tier Nascent Soul Heavenly Monarch perished in this battle!"

"Although the ruling hall recovered the body of that Nascent Soul expert immediately, a certain treasure has disappeared and has not been found to this day."

"Nascent Soul Stage Monk?"

Lu Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he finally understood the cause and effect of the whole matter.

Nascent Soul cultivators can speak the law of Heaven, and their words become law; therefore, they are also called Heavenly Lords.

Even a tiny bit of something from such a being, slipping through their fingers, could benefit an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator for a lifetime.

Wang Hao and the other Qi Refining stage cultivators were obviously trying their luck in Xuhua City, hoping to find a bargain.

He never dreamed of this.

Instead of finding the magical treasure, he was kidnapped by Lu Yuan.

"Immortal treasures are not of much use to me for the time being. If I have the materials, I can refine them myself."

After pondering for a while, Lu Yuan gave up the idea of ​​searching for the magical treasure.

According to Chu Yunxiao.

In recent years, many cultivators from Shenmu Star have gone to Xuhua City to search for treasures, but the waters here are too deep, and even several cultivators have gone missing.

With his extensive cultivation experience spanning multiple lifetimes, Lu Yuan could forge any divine weapon or immortal artifact, so there was absolutely no need for him to rashly meddle in this matter.

"Even the strongest Nascent Soul stage spiritual weapon can't be that much stronger, but this bio-armor is quite good..."

Lu Yuan glanced at the black armor on Chu Yunxiao's body, quite tempted. "Immortal Master, this is the Black God Armor developed by Xinghuan Group. If you like it, please feel free to take it."

Noticing Lu Yuan's gaze, Chu Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat.

Then, with a slight thought, the black armor on his body disappeared as quickly as melting ice and snow, shrinking into a black scale the size of a fingernail.

Lu Yuan took the scale and examined it carefully.

The black scales were shiny and covered with some kind of complex pattern, which looked very strange.

"This Black God Armor was made from the flesh and blood cells of a hybrid dragon, costing trillions of star coins."

"Whether in terms of attack, defense, or combat power enhancement, it is the best among the same level of implants."

"Furthermore, this set of implants is highly malleable and can theoretically grow up to the fifth rank."

Chu Yunxiao forced a smile as he introduced Lu Yuan, but his heart was bleeding.

He obtained this Black God Armor after risking his life and paying a heavy price.

He always regarded it as his second life!

"Don't worry, I won't take your things for nothing."

Lu Yuan could clearly see Chu Yunxiao's reluctance and pain.

If you want a horse to run, you have to give it a run.

He will need to leverage the Yunxiao Group to earn more resources in the future, so he should be given a taste of the benefits.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan suddenly placed a hand on Chu Yunxiao's head.

"Master, spare my life..."

Chu Yunxiao looked horrified and pleaded desperately.

He thought Lu Yuan was going to kill him.

But Lu Yuan shouted, telling him to calm down and not to get distracted.

Followed by.

A flood of information and martial arts techniques rushed into Chu Yunxiao's mind.

"Is this the legendary initiation?"

Chu Yunxiao's mind sharpened, and he immediately stopped thinking wildly, immersing himself in the massive amount of information.

An immortal touched my head and bestowed upon me the gift of immortality!
As he carefully perceived and experienced it, he was immediately captivated by the exquisite and unparalleled martial arts techniques, which seemed like a divine scripture.

Innate Primordial Chaos Technique?
To achieve enlightenment through martial arts and undergo a complete transformation?
This technique allows martial artists to defeat cultivators; it's a path to immortality!
"This disciple kowtows to thank the Immortal Master for transmitting the Dharma!"

Chu Yunxiao lay prostrate on the ground, his eyes brimming with tears of emotion, his whole body trembling.

Well known.

Most people are destined to be cannon fodder from the moment they embark on the path of martial arts.

Only a select few martial artists can carve out a path to survival on the brutal interstellar battlefield.

As for the so-called Martial Saints and Martial Gods, they are merely the beautiful visions used by the Star Alliance to attract generation after generation of young people to become martial artists, and have absolutely nothing to do with ordinary people.

Despite Chu Yunxiao being a fourth-level martial artist and known as the underground emperor of Xuhua City, seemingly enjoying boundless glory, he still managed to achieve great success.

But actually.

He's nothing more than a black glove doing the dirty work for those big shots!

If even he is like this, let alone those lower-level martial artists who are weaker than him.

But now.

Lu Yuan, however, offered him a completely new way out.

Prove your path through martial arts, conquer immortals with martial arts!
With the physical body of a martial artist, one can rival the power of heaven and earth controlled by a cultivator!
without any exaggeration.

The value of this technique is immeasurable.

If Lu Yuan were to pass on this technique, it would be enough to change the fate of countless martial artists!

"This is truly the supreme immortal technique!"

Chu Yunxiao was overcome with emotion, tears streaming down his face, unable to contain his feelings for a long time.

"Alright, as long as you do your job well for me, you'll get plenty of benefits in the future."

Lu Yuan said calmly.

The Innate Primordial Chaos Technique he gave to Chu Yunxiao was merely a simplified version of the Innate Primordial Chaos Technique.

Even if Chu Yunxiao cultivates this technique to its peak, it will be difficult for him to pose a threat.

Moreover, there is a difference between immortals and mortals.

How can the gap between mortals and immortals be so easily bridged?
Even Lu Yuan's self-created Innate Primordial Chaos Technique only gave martial artists a sliver of hope to rival cultivators.

By the time Chu Yunxiao reaches this point, Lu Yuan will have long since left Hulao Star and become a powerful Nascent Soul cultivator or a True Immortal who roams the universe.

"This old man is willing to die for the immortal master!"

"If you disobey, may I, Chu, be struck by lightning and my soul be annihilated!"

Chu Yunxiao raised his hand and swore an oath.

"Then we'll see how you perform in the future."

Lu Yuan nodded.

In truth, he believed more in his own abilities than in making vows.

Something happened here.

He didn't stay at Yunxiao Group for long and soon left Xuhua City to return home.

However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw an unexpected person.

"How will you be here?"

Looking at Gu Yao, who was sitting on the sofa and seemed a little awkward, Lu Yuan asked with a puzzled expression.

"Ah Yuan is back? I invited Officer Gu over for dinner."

Lu's mother poked her head out from the kitchen, her face beaming.

"Yes, Officer Gu helped us a lot last time. Since she has some free time this time, we should definitely thank her properly."

Mr. Lu, who usually works late into the night, made a special trip home early today to busy himself with chores, constantly bringing dishes from the kitchen.

Gu Yao looked helpless and immediately cast a pleading look at him.

"Really? Then I'll talk to her."

Lu Yuan gave him a look, and the other person immediately understood and followed him to the room.

"Is it because of the Hulao Gang incident last time?"

Lu Yuan vaguely guessed what was going on.

"Yes, when I went to see your parents last time, their supervisor happened to see me."

"Their supervisor thought your family had some connections in the police department, so he specially raised your parents' salaries and gave them an easier job."

"Your parents were overjoyed and kept saying they wanted to treat me to a meal. I couldn't find a reason to refuse this time, so I had to agree."

Gu Yao said helplessly, while also looking around Lu Yuan's room with some curiosity.

Who would have thought.

Lu Yuan, this young man who was a big shot in Xuhua City, actually still lived in the slums of Qiuye City.

Moreover, his room is smaller than his own bathroom.

"Then you can do me another favor."

“I recently made some money and want to buy a villa for my parents to live in, but I can’t find a reasonable excuse.”

"So we still need you, senior inspector, to persuade them."

Lu Yuan said frankly.

If he brought this up himself, his parents would definitely worry that the money was ill-gotten.

But if it were Gu Yao, she wouldn't have this concern.

“It’s no big deal. I’ll tell my uncle and aunt later that you helped me solve a big case and that you’ll get a large reward.”

"But how much money did you actually make?"

Gu Yao blinked and asked curiously.

Villas in the core area of ​​Qiuye City are not cheap, starting at least in the tens of millions, and better ones can cost hundreds of millions of star coins.

And judging from Lu Yuan's tone, it seems he made quite a bit of money this time? (End of Chapter)
