I am the Immortal Emperor, and I am VIP 50.

"The vast Malgobi Desert, with its magnificent scenery, is sung in praise of the brave Chaoni people."

Early in the morning, Zhou Yu, who had been woken up by the alarm clock, turned off the alarm and opened his eyes with difficulty.

He truly hadn't expected that this fully automated ticket would torment him for three hours.

The key point is that you've been tormenting me for three hours, but what's the point of you constantly asking me to renew my subscription?

After finally managing to fall asleep after three hours, Zhou Yu was soon woken up by the alarm clock. For the first time, he felt that his life was so miserable.

However, there is some good news.

That means the store was upgraded again this morning.

The store has been upgraded.

[Shop Level: Lv4]

【New today】

【Spirit Enhancement Elixir (2/2): A powerful cultivation elixir that provides a significant boost to spiritual energy upon injection. Each bottle costs 1000 yuan】

【Body Strengthening Agent (2/2): A powerful body-strengthening compound that provides a significant improvement in physical condition after injection. Each bottle costs 1000 yuan】

[One-hour automatic operation voucher for cultivation technique (12/12): ...]

[Automatic running voucher for the cultivation technique all day (1/1): ...]

……

"Huh?" Jiang Yu rubbed his eyes and found that the original Spirit Gathering Elixir and Body Tempering Elixir had been replaced by Spirit Strengthening Elixir and Body Strengthening Elixir in the store, which were priced higher and had a smaller purchase limit.

Judging from the description, this thing seems to be more effective than Spirit Gathering Agent and Body Tempering Agent, but the total cost is not much different from yesterday.

Zhou Yu tentatively gave himself four injections.

then……

When he woke up again, he heard Zhou Zaozao and Zhou Wanwan crying.

"Brother! You can't die!" Zhou Zaozao cried and wailed as if her own brother had died.

Zhou Wanwan, with snot and tears streaming down her face, clung to Zhou Yu's head, sobbing, "Don't die, Gege, waaaah..."

Zhou Yu groggily regained consciousness, "What happened...?"

"Wow!" Zhou Wanwan hugged Zhou Yu tightly. "Gege is back to life!"

Zhou Zaozao wiped away her tears and said, "Thank goodness, brother, you're not dead."

"I was just bragging to someone yesterday. If you were to die right after that, they would all say it was my fault, and they would say something like, 'The struggle for the crown prince is always like this.'"

Zhou Yu: "..."

Zhou Yu had no recollection of what happened while he was in a coma.

He only remembered that the stimulation from the four needles he received was more than ten times that of the Spirit Gathering Agent and Body Tempering Agent he had used before.

It can be said that these spirit-strengthening and body-strengthening elixirs are, in fact, more effective than spirit-gathering and body-tempering elixirs – one injection is worth more than ten!

Although the minimum daily expenditure is the same, the effect is doubled!

"As expected of the upgraded store," Zhou Yu thought to himself, "They only ever sell me better stuff... The high prices aren't their problem, it's mine..."

"As my shop upgrades, the items sold to me not only become more expensive, but their effects also only get better. It's true that you have to keep spending money; if you don't spend money even for a day, you'll fall behind the game..."

As he was thinking this, Zhou Yu suddenly felt a salty taste in his mouth. "What is this thing in my mouth...?"

Zhou Wanwan, who had been crying, wiped her nose and suddenly burst into laughter.

"Ah! That's my snot!"

Zhou Yu: "..."

Zhou Yu: "Holy shit! Ugh..."

He threw Zhou Wanwan out of his arms and rushed into the bathroom to rinse his mouth.

I'm afraid I'll never forget the smell of snot in my entire life.

The key issue is still someone else's snot!

While rinsing his mouth, Zhou Yu glanced at the shop again, and as he expected, two new items had appeared in the shop.

【Spiritual Consciousness Gathering Technique (1/1): The most common body-strengthening technique, which can help cultivators improve their physical strength. This technique is priced at 0 yuan (limited-time offer)】

【High School Mind Technique (1/1): A mental cultivation method suitable for high school students. Upon reaching the highest level, it can seamlessly connect to university-level mental cultivation methods. It can effectively help cultivators improve their spiritual power. This technique is priced at 0 yuan (limited-time offer)】

Like the previous Guizhen Breathing Method, it is priced at zero yuan and is a limited-time offer.

Zhou Yu guessed that the reason they were priced at zero yuan was probably because these three textbooks were distributed for free.

If I want to learn other techniques later, I'll probably have to spend money.

However, since these were items costing zero yuan, Zhou Yu naturally bought them all.

Buying it outright shows you're incredibly wealthy!

Soon, new content appeared in the cultivation technique section of Zhou Yu's panel.

[Technique]

【Returning to Truth Breathing Technique Lv6: (0/500000)】

【Spiritual Awareness Gathering Technique Lv1: (0/100)】

【High-Center Method Lv1: (0/100)】

Zhou Yu squinted.

It really does cost money.

Since he had money now, Zhou Yu directly upgraded both the Spirit Gathering Technique and the High Center Technique as much as possible, spending 22,200 yuan to upgrade these two wasteful things to Lv4.

【Spiritual Awareness Gathering Technique Lv4: (0/50000)】

【High-Center Method Lv4: (0/50000)】

"This is like money is being spent like water... faster than I can pee... This is really something else."

Zhou Yu's face immediately fell into a worried expression again.

I spent 26,000 yuan today, plus the 100,000 yuan I spent last night improving my Returning to Truth Breathing Technique. If I had that money for foot baths, I could have gone on for ages...

"No, my goal is to cultivate immortality, get into the Immortal Dao University, and then become an Immortal Emperor. How can I be distracted by trivial matters like washing my feet?"

"At the very least, it has to be the full set!"

Zhou Yu steadied his goals and Dao heart, then looked at the last column on the store page.

[Shop Upgrade Progress: 124500/150000]

"This upgrade progress increase is unreasonable," Zhou Yu complained. "Is this thing going to consistently hold me up for a whole day?"

However, such trivial matters are no longer important.

The important thing is to make money!

Zhou Yu currently has 75,000 yuan left in his account. If this money is only used to cover the minimum daily expenses, it will be enough for a very short time. However, if he wants to think about other things, especially to improve the level of his three current cultivation techniques, it will be completely insufficient.

"I have to find a way to make some more money..." Zhou Yu racked his brains, but for the time being, he couldn't think of a way to quickly make money besides criminal law.

"No, although I am intelligent, resourceful, brave, quick-witted, beautiful, shrewd, capable, discerning, and quick-witted..."

"But there are limits to my intelligence alone."

Zhou Yu looked pained, as if he had a lot of strength but nowhere to use it.

"But as the saying goes, three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang. Even if you randomly pick three idiots, they should be able to come up with a decent solution."

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, and a good idea flashed into his mind.

"Go to the school and ask Gao Ying and Liang Yanbo."

"After all, they're not just ordinary idiots."
