He was selling gashapon toys in Marvel Studios, and at the beginning, Tony turned into Kuuga.

With a flick of his finger, Li Ang created a holographic projection that unfolded between the two of them.

The scene depicts a vast continent, with towns nestled among forests and plains.

In the distance, towering mountains rise into the clouds, and occasionally, large, flying creatures streak across the sky.

A white-haired elf was casting some kind of attack magic. A ball of light flew from his palm and struck a three-meter-tall humanoid monster precisely.

"This is another world." Li Ang said casually, "It's dominated by a magical civilization, with a complete adventurer system and monster ecosystem."

"When monsters die, they leave behind core materials, which can be converted into value points for me."

Zhang Zhiwei's gaze was firmly fixed on the projection.

The way that white-haired elf cast spells...

Hand gestures, chanting, elemental manipulation, and the application of Qi share some similar underlying logic.

"You mean..." Zhang Zhiwei began.

"It's very simple." Li Ang turned off the projector and held up three fingers.

"First, I will send your people from the Celestial Master's Mansion to that world for training."

"Secondly, the materials and cores you obtain from defeating monsters will be converted into value points based on market value and deposited into your account."

"Third, once I've saved enough, I'll come back and use it to draw from my advanced cultivation gacha pool."

"Cultivation techniques, elixirs, magic weapons, bloodlines... the pool has everything, it all depends on luck."

Li Ang spread his hands, his expression so sincere that he didn't seem like a cunning businessman.

"In other words, you risk your lives to earn money, and I provide the platform and channels; each gets what they need."

Zhang Zhiwei remained silent for half a minute.

He has lived for nearly two hundred years and has seen more swindlers than the pine trees on Mount Longhu.

But this young man in front of me... he wasn't just making empty promises.

Everyone witnessed the battle at Darkseid.

The image of Li Ang extinguishing the Omega core with a flick of his finger is still etched in the minds of everyone present.

Someone of this caliber wouldn't need to deceive an old Taoist priest.

"What is the strength of the monsters in that world?"

Zhang Zhiwei asked the key question.

"It's roughly equivalent to your level in the lower-middle range of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms before the Jia Shen Incident," Li Ang thought for a moment, "but the high-level demons are no weaker than you."

"So I suggest you send the younger ones to practice first, and then personally go into the high-level dungeons after you've recovered from your injuries."

Zhang Zhiwei tapped his fingers twice on his knee.

Young disciples go to other worlds to hone their skills through battles and earn capital to purchase cultivation techniques.

Once this path is cleared, the ceiling of the Celestial Master's Mansion will be completely lifted.

No need for a billion, and no need to sell off assets.

I'd trade my life for it.

This is the path that practitioners should take.

"When can we set off?" Zhang Zhiwei asked.

Li Ang smiled, knowing that the old man would take the bait.

Those who cultivate the Tao become more eccentric as they get older, their obsession with seeking the Tao even stronger than that of young people.

"What's the rush, Master Zhang?" Li Ang pulled out a thin booklet from his system space; the cover was plain gray.

Basic magic.

"You still have burns from the residual Omega energy that haven't healed, and your disciples who were supporting the Heavenly Canopy are still lying there exhausted."

"It should be kept for at least half a month."

He handed over the booklet.

"This is for you, consider it a perk for long-time VIPs."

"A basic introductory manual for magic in that world. Study it in advance so you don't get lost when you get there."

Zhang Zhiwei took the booklet but did not open it immediately. Instead, he first used his Qi to sense it.

The booklet itself showed no spiritual energy fluctuations; it was just ordinary paper and ink.

But the content recorded above...

He turned to the first page.

The fundamental theories of fire magic: elemental resonance, spell construction, and spiritual guidance.

Zhang Zhiwei's pupils contracted slightly.

Elemental resonance corresponds to the harmonization of Qi attributes.

The structure of incantations corresponds to the stroke structure of talismans.

Mental guidance corresponds to intentional drive.

The underlying logic is the same.

He quickly flipped to the second page, the third page...

Defensive magic, spatial magic, healing magic...

For each category, he could find a corresponding counterpart in the Celestial Master's Mansion's cultivation system.

The difference is that magic requires chanting to stabilize the structure, while Qi is directly driven by intention.

The chanting process involves an extra step, but it also provides an extra layer of precise control.

Zhang Zhiwei's page-turning speed increased faster and faster.

He was a powerful expert at the Celestial Master level, with incredibly broad knowledge.

This thin introductory manual alone showed him at least seven new ideas that could be integrated into his own system.

If we apply the structural logic of chanting to talismans...

If we use magical spiritual energy guidance to optimize the coverage area of ​​the Golden Light Spell...

When Zhang Zhiwei closed the booklet, his hands were slightly warm.

Having cultivated Taoism for nearly two hundred years, he thought he had seen the end of this path.

But this booklet told him that the road hadn't ended; he had been walking on a one-way street the whole time.

There are countless highways nearby.

"Boss Li."

Zhang Zhiwei carefully tucked the booklet into his sleeve, looked up at Li Ang, and his eyes became more solemn.

"The old Taoist priest has lived for nearly two hundred years, so he still has some discernment when it comes to people."

"You're no ordinary businessman. You gave Stark power, Superman and his crew gadgets, and those three lunatics from the Quanxing faction strategic resources..."

"These things combined are enough to overturn the order of any world."

Why are you helping us?

Li Ang leaned back in his recliner, rhythmically tapping a Coke can with his right index finger.

Old fox.

As expected, they would ask this question.

"Master Zhang, you're overthinking it." Li Ang's reply was simple: "I'm just a gashapon merchant passing by."

"As you become stronger, your spending power will increase."

"If my spending power increases, I can gain more benefits."

"It's purely a business transaction; there's no grand ambition to save the world."

Zhang Zhiwei stared at him for a long time.

Li Ang's expression was frank, showing no sign of lying.

But Zhang Zhiwei always felt that this young man had only told three-tenths of what he wanted to say.

But... that's enough.

He doesn't need to know everything.

All you need to confirm is that this person has no ill intentions toward the world.

"Then thank you very much, Boss Li."

Zhang Zhiwei stood up, dusted off his Taoist robe, and solemnly clasped his hands in a salute to Li Ang.

"I will come to bother you again in half a month."

"I'll be waiting anytime." Li Ang raised the Coke can as a return gesture.

Zhang Zhiwei led his three disciples away along the mountain path.

The figure in the pale Taoist robe gradually blurred in the morning mist.

Li Ang watched him leave until he was completely out of sight before turning his gaze away.

"bite."

The system panel pops up automatically.

[Client Evaluation Report, Zhang Zhiwei]

[Client Tier: Potential S-Level Long-Term Client]

[Consumption Capacity Assessment: Current assets are less than one million value points, but based on personal combat strength (peak Celestial Master realm) and sect resource allocation authority, the estimated consumption potential generated through cross-realm training within the next three months is 1200 million to 1800 million value points.]

[Recommendation: Officially launch the "Cross-World Experience" business segment, constructing a complete business loop of "Otherworld Monster Hunting → Material Recycling → Value Point Settlement → High-End Gacha Consumption".]

This business model can be replicated and extended to other customer groups (S.H.I.E.L.D., All-in-One, Guardians of the Galaxy, etc.), with an estimated total revenue growth rate of 400%+.
