Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 116 Huge Wealth, Five-Star Account!
After obtaining the jade pendant, Lu Qingshan gathered the other miscellaneous items together and put them back into a world ring for safekeeping.

These miscellaneous items, large and small, add up to about a hundred Mixed Yuan Units, representing all the assets of the dozen or so directors of the Fire Phoenix Group.

Adding to what he obtained from the previous raid on the Treasure Pavilion, Lu Qingshan could easily open a general store in Qianwu City.

Lu Qingshan had no interest in these broken pieces; his gaze was fixed on the silver jade pendant.

The sign was made of some unknown material, and inside it was a small world, not very large, mainly consisting of a flat continent.

In the very center of the continent, there is a very wide lake... about ten kilometers in diameter.

The lake water was crystal clear, and even a glance from the surface revealed a chilling coldness.

"Locke's Divine Water!"

A smile appeared on Lu Qingshan's face.

This wasn't the first time he had obtained the Locke Divine Water, so he naturally recognized it and was well aware of its value.

Compared to this vast lake, the Locke Divine Water I received as a rebate was nothing more than a small puddle.

"Get rich!"

The Ghost King's clone smiled menacingly.

This is 63.37 billion units of Locke Divine Water, comparable to the entire fortune of an Immortal King.

With this money, if Lu Qingshan were to participate in that mid-level auction, he wouldn't just be some country bumpkin, but a true top-tier tycoon.

"It's time to leave!"

Having achieved its goal, the Ghost King's clone retrieved the mechanical race's spaceship and vanished into space.

In the starry sky, Lu Qingshan looked at the palace that had been reduced to ruins by the power of his world.

"Nasus, give it a shot!"

he ordered.

"Yes, Master."

Despite being only a Level 2 AI, Nasus was still able to accurately understand Lu Qingshan's thoughts.

The planet-destroying cannon on the machine race's spaceship began charging, and a moment later, a blue beam of light slammed into the asteroid.

"Boom boom boom——"

After a loud bang, the asteroid where the eighteen people had just gathered turned into cosmic dust. No matter how sophisticated the instruments were, they could not find any trace of Lu Qingshan's presence. Destroying the body and destroying the evidence was a good job of the planet-destroying cannon, but it consumed too much energy.

After the asteroid disappeared, the machine race's spaceship accelerated through the planetary belt and soon exceeded the speed of light to enter the dark universe.

……

One year later, in Qianwu City,
Lu Qingshan met Shang Jie, took the silver jade token from him, and handed over the resources he had purchased over the past year to deliver to the Ghost King's clone.

Looking at the huge lake inside the jade tablet, Lu Qingshan smiled.

"It was the Ghost King's clone who made the move. Pansy died before he could even use his plant life, and the notorious Fire Phoenix Group was wiped out... And these Locke Divine Waters... just happened to solve my current financial predicament."

Lu Qingshan is short of money.

Several years ago, when he purchased resources to accumulate primal force for the Ghost King's clone, he only had 20,000 Chaos Yuan left. Over the years, he used up those 20,000 Chaos Yuan and exchanged them for the same treasure, which he just handed over to Shang Jie.

Now I'm penniless, practically destitute.

Lu Qingshan took a small portion from the Locke Divine Water Lake and put it into a world ring.

Then we went directly to the virtual universe Qianwu City Universe Star River Bank branch.

He did not go to the counter or the VIP room.

Instead, they went directly to a self-service private room.

As one of the two major banks in the universe, the Cosmic Galaxy Bank attaches great importance to the privacy of its customers. Some powerful individuals who do not wish to reveal their identities can choose the bank's intelligent services.

Of course. This service has prerequisites; users must be Samsung or higher to be eligible.

As for the other selected intelligent services, they are essentially pseudo-intelligent services. The intelligence they use is not true intelligence, but merely ordinary quantum computers.

Lu Qingshan entered his bank card number and multi-dimensional password, and quickly confirmed his identity information.

"Ding ding ding, dear four-star customer, I am Universe Galaxy Bank's Smart Service Butler No. 1688. It's a pleasure to serve you. How can I help you?"

"Don't mention it, I'd like to sell some treasures."

Lu Qing said with a smile.

The intelligent life forms that serve the bank's VIP members are highly advanced, almost indistinguishable from normal intelligent life forms.

"Please show the products you wish to sell."

With Lu Qingshan's permission, Nasus displayed the Locke Divine Water he was going to sell.

Intelligent lifeform No. 1688 glanced at it and said, "Dear four-star user, the amount of Locke Divine Water you provided is approximately 2 cubic kilometers. Our Cosmic Galaxy Bank's purchase price is 1720 million Mixed Yuan Units..."

"I need consignment services..."

Upon hearing the price quoted by the bank's automated system, Lu Qingshan immediately shook his head. "Cosmic Galaxy is dishonest; they're going to pocket the difference!"
The value of Locke Divine Water is approximately 8.9 million Hunyuan units per cubic kilometer. This is the price at the auction. In reality, it would be even easier to sell. His 2 cubic kilometers should be worth 17.8 million Hunyuan units, but the bank only offered 17.2 million. Don't underestimate this small fraction; it's still 600,000 Hunyuan units!

Keep in mind that a few years ago, when Lu Qingshan participated in a mid-level auction, he only had 21 Mixed Yuan Units. These 60 Mixed Yuan Units are three times his entire fortune at that time!
Only those who have experienced poverty will learn to be frugal and meticulous.

"Dear four-star user, our Cosmic Galaxy Bank consignment service charges a service fee of one-thousandth. We will then help you contact users who want to buy, or handle the matter through medium or high-level auctions! This may take up some of your valuable time."

The intelligent system seems to still want to salvage the situation.

"Let's consign it, I'm not in a hurry..."

A service fee of one-thousandth is only about 2 mixed units, which is much less than 60. Lu Qingshan didn't want to lose so much for nothing.

He wasn't in a hurry to repay the debt, so there was no need to get the money quickly. Besides, given the reputation of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, this money wouldn't end up in any unexpected situation.

"Okay, dear four-star user, please leave your contact address and we will send someone to pick up the goods, or you can deliver them directly to any branch of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and we can transfer the goods to you."

Lu Qingshan left behind his manor at the Qianwu Taoist temple.

Now that he is a disciple of the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom, it's not a big deal for him to expose some resources, especially since the Cosmic Galaxy Bank won't leak customers' privacy.

Even if someone sees it, all they'll know is that Lu Qingshan had a transaction with the bank.

The Cosmic Galaxy Bank is very efficient.

On that day, a realm lord recognized by the fundamental laws, along with a group of employees from Star River Bank, arrived at the location designated by Lu Qingshan and respectfully took away the Locke Divine Water.

Just three days later.

Lu Qingshan learned from the bank that the goods he consigned had been sold to a five-star user from another universe country, who most likely used them to cultivate his own plant life.

After the transaction was completed, Lu Qingshan received payment of 1778 million Mixed Yuan Units in his account.

The consignment price was set by Lu Qingshan himself, using the previous auction price found in Nasus's database.

With this money deposited into his account, Lu Qingshan's account was instantly upgraded again, making him a five-star user of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank.

He also received an invitation to a high-level cosmic auction, but this auction was not until several hundred years later, so even if Lu Qingshan was interested, he wouldn't have the opportunity to attend in the short term.

With the money, Lu Qingshan entrusted the bank and the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance to purchase the treasures accumulated by the Realm Lord's Force.

In addition, the treasures needed for the evolution of Star-Eating Grass were also on his purchase list.

With so much Locke Divine Water, it's a certainty that the Star-Eating Grass will reach the ninth level of the Realm Lord. Lu Qingshan plans to let the Star-Eating Grass evolve again.

His requirements weren't high; 108 vines were far too few. The Immortal Star-Eating Grass he wanted to cultivate would require at least 300 vines.

With 300 vines of Star-Eating Grass, there is a certain chance of breaking through to Immortality by investing resources. However, with 500 or 1000 vines, Star-Eating Grass that breaks through to Immortality is comparable to becoming a King, making it too difficult to cultivate and the success rate too low.

A minimum of 300 is guaranteed; we'll see if we want to keep pushing!
