The Infinite Powerhouse Mixed in with Sakura Dormitory

Three hundred million! Her monthly salary is only 900,000 yen, but because of her high spending, she's lucky if she can save 200,000 yen a month, and only 2 million yen a year.

For high school students who still rely on their parents, the monthly living expenses range from as low as 30,000 yen for those like Jiang Jing in the past, to 50,000 to 100,000 yen for those who are better off.

This calculation shows just how astonishing Jiang Jing's income is now, and how ridiculous it is that he invested 300 million yuan without batting an eye and gathered four classmates to form this animation club.

"Uh...it doesn't matter, as long as everyone has fun." Jiang Jing just shrugged at what Chihiro Sengoku said.

Jiang Jing's casualness made Qian Shi Qian Xun shake her head: "Investing two or three hundred million to play around, I have nothing to say to your teacher who has such a big hand."

"Two or three hundred million? How could it be so much?" Aoyama Nanami, who had been quietly enjoying her food, gaped, her mouth agape, and she even dropped the grilled fish on her chopsticks in shock.

However, only Aoyama Nanami was shocked. The rich woman Kamiikusa Misaki already knew but didn't care, not to mention Shiina Mashiro, who was also a rich woman.

Since demonstrating his abilities, Akasaka Ryunosuke has earned tens of millions of yen in the past year or so, and he had already anticipated Jiang Jing's investment, so his reaction was very calm.

"Qingshan, you don't know?"

Chihiro Sengoku looked at Nanami Aoyama with a puzzled expression, then nodded: "That's true, you don't understand these things."

Of the five, only Aoyama Nanami is an ordinary high school girl who knows nothing about housing prices, audio equipment, and musical instruments such as pianos and guitars.

However, this topic was interrupted by Kato Megumi, who suddenly showed up at the door.

"What? The association's general affairs manager, Kazami Yuuka, has returned to Gensokyo on urgent business and asked me to temporarily handle matters for a few days." In the room, Jiang Jing looked at the plain-looking girl kneeling opposite him, somewhat speechless.

Shiina Mashiro, who was allowed to enter, sat next to Jiang Jing, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Kanda-senpai, this is not a temporary appointment. Rather, it is a rule of the association that when the association lacks a temporary head, the local guardian awakened person automatically becomes the highest decision-maker."

Kato Megumi explained, then added, "Because Minister Kazami left in such a hurry this afternoon, she asked me to be your secretary for the next few days and to convey her apologies."

"Actually, these things won't take up too much of your time, Kanda-senpai. There are dedicated people to handle everything."

"Kanda-senpai, all you need to do every day is listen to the progress reports on a few important matters of the association, make a decision, and keep an impression of these matters."

Jiang Jing shook his head, feeling that he had been at a disadvantage by acknowledging the so-called Awakened identity at the time. Although he had gained many benefits, he had also directly chosen a side.

Furthermore, the faction he belongs to is the righteous human race, which is somewhat unusual for him, who has mostly represented the villains and destroyed worlds in the past.

Jiang Jing waved his hand: "Alright, so you're here to report to me today? Tell me what's going on."

"Yes, senior." Kato Megumi nodded calmly, then lowered her head and tapped her left wrist, instantly creating a projection.

"Kanda-senpai, there are three things I need to report to you today."

"The first thing is that the Association's sweep of the Shadow Hand's infiltration has ended. General Esdeath, who has broken through to the Silver Moon level, is in charge of the interrogation. A detailed report is expected to be sent up the day after tomorrow."

"The second thing is that the later stages of the Forbidden Zone Demon Tide have been completed, and the rewards for the support provided by the Neon Branch to the Fourth Forbidden Zone have also been settled, including your share."

"The underground passage of the association will open tomorrow morning. Many seriously injured and infected people will come out along with settlement source crystals and supplies. In order to prevent accidents, we need you to stay and oversee the operation."

"The third thing is the information about the elven world that we obtained from the demon who joined the Shadow Hand last time. This morning, our staff deciphered the altar and, through reverse deduction, have located the coordinates of that elven world."

"Regarding this matter, the association has formed two policy groups. One group proposed to directly apply for the last available space-based weapon in outer space within ten years to completely destroy that small world."

"The reason is that the other world was formed by one-tenth of the earth vein spiritual power of our world. If that primordial spirit were to intentionally approach, the return of the original magic power of the two worlds would cause a large-scale natural disaster worldwide."

"The second option is to demonstrate overwhelming power as a deterrent, and then accept the primordial spirit in a friendly manner, allowing it to leave that small world and join the association."

"The reason is that when a member of the simulation team successfully locked onto the coordinates of that world for the first time, a consciousness calling itself Mio came from the other side. The other party was sensitive and clear, possessed advanced intelligence, and was a person who could be communicated with."

"Whether to destroy that small world or to accept and subdue it is up to you, Kanda-senpai, to decide."

Jiang Jing's eyes flickered slightly: "The primordial spirit calls itself Mio?"

“Yes.” Kato Megumi nodded.

Jiang Jing thought for a moment and said, "Let me go to the association tomorrow to find out more about this."

"Yes."

Kato Megumi nodded and then asked, "Is there anything else you need to ask, senpai?"

Jiang Jing shrugged and said casually, "There's nothing I need to know. Anyway, I'm only temporarily taking over for a few days, so I don't need to know that much."

"Alright, then I won't disturb your rest any longer, senior." Kato Megumi directly took her leave, her style of doing things clean and efficient.

"it is good."

……

In the early morning, after seeing Shiina Mashiro and the other two off to school, Jiang Jing did not go to the association immediately, but instead appeared at the temple of the Netherworld.

Two days later, as time accelerated, the temple fell silent. Then came the rustling sound of clothes being put on. The curtains on the large bed moved without wind, and Kasumigaoka Utaha, wearing only a transparent veil, came down.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's face was still flushed from the aftermath. With a thought, the ground cracked open, and an ancient bronze Buddha statue rose up.

Brushing aside a strand of sweaty hair by her ear, Kasumigaoka Utaha turned her head and whispered, "Kouta, this is the carrier that records some complete information about that ancient Buddhist civilization."

“Ancient Buddhist civilization.” Jiang Jing, who had finished dressing, also came out, his gaze falling on the three-meter-tall bronze Buddha statue.

However, this Buddha statue is different from the modern Buddha statues with fat heads and big ears. It is an ancient person sitting three meters tall, with a withered body, a prominent forehead, and a somewhat strange appearance.

In particular, the Buddha statue's somewhat ferocious face lacked any compassion, its eyes were cold, and the slightly upturned corners of its mouth seemed to be mocking something eerily.

.

P.S.: I'll stop at 4,000 words today. My head was about to explode from writer's block this afternoon.

Monthly pass bounty accumulated to 3 chapters (3/3)

Chapter 240 A Week of Fierce Battles, Kasumigaoka Utaha's Surprise (6K)

"This relic was discovered by Tislanf in a fleeting spatial rift deep in the void. The protective restrictions on the relic have become extremely fragile due to the erosion of time."

“So it only took Tislanf a few years to break the seal and obtain a lot of complete information about that civilization,” Kasumigaoka Utaha said softly.

"However, the information about the inheritance of ordinary civilizations is useless to Tislanf, but some fragments of information are very important."

At this point, Kasumigaoka Utaha's expression turned serious: "Those messages contain information about something called a Gate, or Origin."

"It is said that whether it is ancient evil creatures or the strongest beings in our world, as long as they can enter it, they can be sublimated, achieve eternity and uniqueness, and transcend this universe to become an indescribable conceptual existence."

“Origin!” Jiang Jing narrowed his eyes and looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha, saying calmly, “Has anyone seen this thing, or been inside it?”

Kasumigaoka Utaha stepped forward, her sheer veil fluttering to reveal glimpses of her cleavage. She took Jiang Jing's arm and nodded, saying, "Yes."

"According to the records of the core high-level of that ancient Buddhist civilization, the first and only person to enter that door, or rather the place of origin, was a strongman of the human race."

"That's why the human race suddenly rose from a mid-level race to become the number one race in the material universe during that ancient era, surpassing the once strongest races: the Innate Gods, the Demon Race, the Divine Beast Race, and the Fantasy Race."

"And for some unknown reason, the myriad races of the prime material universe erupted in a world-destroying war, shattering the entire vast and boundless wilderness world, and causing the majority of hundreds of supreme experts at the True Name level to perish."

"In that battle, there was not a single True Name level expert, only a few God-level experts. Various heaven-defying geniuses of the human race emerged one after another, rising against the odds in the war."

"When the Void Abyss finally appeared and was about to destroy and devour the world, the human race, which won the victory, shattered the universe, and became the only powerful race, was left with only thirty-odd survivors."

"However, the person who entered the door never appeared again, and there is no record of any related information."

"Uh...didn't Tislanf tell Hades she didn't know anything about these things?" Jiang Jing looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha with a puzzled expression.

Kasumigaoka Utaha smiled charmingly: "Teslanf definitely won't tell you this information. Although the powerful beings from the two realms of the Underworld who broke away from the Demon King's Alliance formed the Hell Alliance, their relationships are actually quite loose and they are wary of each other."

Jiang Jing nodded, then narrowed his eyes slightly: "So because someone from the human race went there, the origin of the awakened humans has now become the key to open the door."

Kasumigaoka Utaha nodded: "Yes, that's how the ancient Buddhist civilization calculated it. And at that time, the strongest Buddha, who was named Amitabha and had already reached the peak of his true name, even sensed the existence of the gate."

"However, just as the entire ancient Buddhist civilization gathered all the powerful beings of Buddhahood, preparing to search for the gate hidden in the endless dimensions of space and time, the abyss erupted."

"Is that so?" Jiang Jing took two steps forward, glanced at the strange Buddha statue, and then reached out to grasp it.

boom!!

On the surface of the Buddha statue, which appeared broken but was actually indestructible and could not be damaged even by Tislanf, a faint golden-black Buddha light emerged.

Click click!

Jiang Jing gradually increased the force in his hand, and the space itself made a cracking sound as if it could not bear the weight. At the same time, a huge handprint with clear texture appeared on the half-meter-thick layer of Buddha light on the surface of the Buddha statue.

Buzzing!!

As Jiang Jing intensified his power, the layer of Buddha light that seemed impervious to all laws began to tremble, gradually being suppressed by the overwhelmingly domineering force.

When the Buddha's light had been reduced to less than ten centimeters thick by the materialized palm, Jiang Jing looked calmly at the bronze Buddha statue protected by the dark golden Buddha's light and said, "What, are you still going to hide it?"

"Amitabha, we are all human beings, why must you force me so hard?" With a grand sigh, a will gradually awakened within the Buddha statue, revealing a terrifying aura that made Kasumigaoka Utaha subconsciously take a step back.

"Uh... you're at least half a step into the True Name realm now. Even if you're a fake, there's no need to be afraid of a remnant will." Jiang Jing looked down at Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was clinging tightly to his arm, and was somewhat speechless.

With a casual wave of his hand, Jiang Jing draped a black dress over Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was only wearing a sexy transparent veil, practically naked.

At this moment, the cold eyes of the Buddha statue opposite gradually lit up, and at the same time, the bronze Buddha statue, which was originally an inanimate object, gained a touch of life.

The Buddha's eyes, radiating a dark golden light, blinked and its gaze fell on Jiang Jing.

"Sorata, you know she's a fake, isn't it normal to be scared?" Kasumigaoka Utaha puffed out her chest confidently, and Jiang Jing suddenly felt a soft mass on his arm...

Jiang Jing rolled his eyes: "Don't tell me you haven't gone back to the Underworld even once, and had the succubus's subordinates capture some magical beasts for you to practice your courage? You haven't used any of your power."

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked away, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Well, I'm still getting used to the fusion of memories. Apart from giving that order through the artifact, I haven't shown myself in front of those succubus high-ranking officials in the Underworld."

“I…” Jiang Jing shook his head speechlessly at this useless Kasumigaoka Utaha.

I originally thought that erasing Tislanf's will and letting Kasumigaoka Utaha's soul take over might be useful in controlling the succubus race.

However, it seems that even though she has integrated some of Tislanf's memories and possesses earth-shattering power, she is just an ordinary person and is not of much use to him for the time being. She can only serve as a weapon to help him relax and feel comfortable.

Seeing Jiang Jing and the other person flirting and teasing each other as if no one else was around, and not paying any attention to its appearance, the awakened will couldn't help but speak up when it felt the increasingly strong power on the surface of the Buddha statue.

"Benefactor, could you please put away your supernatural powers? We are all human, so let's talk things out." The majestic voice conveyed its meaning, so although it spoke the language of an ancient civilization, communication was not a problem.

Jiang Jing looked up and met the Buddha statue's gaze, his tone indifferent: "What do you want to say?"

Faced with the unfathomable river view that revealed its depths, the Buddha statue didn't mince words and said directly, "How about we make a deal?"

"Oh, what do you want to trade with me?" Jiang Jing looked at it with interest.

The bronze Buddha statue's slightly ferocious face had a dark glint in its eyes, and it said in a low voice, "Find me a congenital fetus, and I will tell you the complete lineage of the Ancient Buddha, and also tell you where the gate is."

"What? You know where the door is?" Kasumigaoka Utaha stared at the Buddha statue in shock.

"Of course, if it weren't for the sudden invasion of the Abyss back then, we would have opened the door long ago." The will belonging to the Buddha statue vibrated the air and said proudly.

"If we had succeeded back then, we would not have cared about those lowly degenerates of our lineage. We would have already unified all realms and brought all beings to bliss."

Jiang Jing shrugged: "It's a pity you're all dead."
