"Sir, this is your first paynt, please verify it!"
Half an hour later, two experts at the Divine Cultivation Realm Seventh Grade escorted a box over. The material of this box was extrely sturdy, comparable to a Saint Grade Divine Weapon. Even an expert at the Divine Cultivation Realm Ninth Grade would find it difficult to destroy it. The only way to open it was through life-sign identification.
Zhang nglong took the box, and it automatically scanned the information Zhang nglong had saved when registering the account. With a sound of tal chanisms moving, the box slowly opened.
The space inside the box was very small, with most of the volu being tal. There was only a capacity smaller than a fist, and within this tiny space, there was a thumb-sized storage device.
Zhang nglong scanned it, and the storage was filled with a mountain of Divine Crystals. Ordinary Divine Crystals were transparent and colorless, the most basic unit in transactions, also known as Level One Divine Crystals. Green ones were Level Two Divine Crystals, and the ratio to Level One was 1:100.
Level Three Divine Crystals were blue, with a ratio of 1:10,000 to Level One. Level Four were orange, with a ratio of 1:1 million, and Level Five were red, with a ratio of 1:100 million.
[Principal, no issues, there are 18,500 red Level Five Divine Crystals and a large number of other levels of Divine Crystals, these should be the remaining balance in your account, which still has 5,150 billion Divine Crystals.]
Since Gou Dan confird there were no problems, Zhang nglong naturally had no concerns. He wasn’t sure how many Divine Crystals would be needed to activate the mysterious scroll for an attack beyond the Divine Cultivation Realm.
"No problem, the number and quality match perfectly." Zhang nglong directly collected all these Divine Crystals.
"In that case, please process the paynt confirmation on the system. We will prepare the remaining 4,150 billion Divine Crystals for you by tomorrow morning, and you can collect them any ti around noon or afternoon without needing to make an appointnt."
"Hmm, thank you for your hard work," Zhang nglong stood up, "I’ll head back first, see you tomorrow."
"Please hold on, sir," before Zhang nglong could step out, he was called by Dai.
"Is there a problem?"
"Sir, our shareholder wishes to et you, I wonder if you have ti..."
"Not interested," Zhang nglong shook his head. He didn’t know any shareholders of this bank, the only possible one was that Xi Chen. It seems he might have discovered that Zhang nglong was the one supporting Night Hand, "If he really wants to et , let him co find himself."
"Wow, Mr. Gu’s quite arrogant. Seems like without my personal appearance, I can’t even invite you." At that mont, Xi Chen’s voice ca from outside the room.
A burly man walked in, his appearance and figure almost identical to the one from the virtual system in the auction.
"Boss!" Heiwu and Heing beca alert instantly. They knew that even with their capabilities combined with the entire Night Hand’s assassins, they couldn’t do anything to Xi Chen, unless Night Hand intervened personally.
But if Night Hand had to intervene, the nature of the situation would change entirely.
"Not arrogance, just a bit busy," Zhang nglong said calmly, "You know, I’m soone whose ti is worth billions of Divine Crystals every minute."
"I don’t doubt that," Xi Chen said, "The elixirs from the auction, I suppose they were from your hands?"
"Ah, I wanted to keep a low profile, but my abilities wouldn’t allow it," Zhang nglong shook his head, "Why are you looking for ?"
"Mr. Gu, I just want to ask if I offended you in any way?"
Zhang nglong shook his head, "This is our first eting, naturally there’s no question of offense."
"Since there’s no conflict between Mr. Gu and , why did you help Night Hand at the auction? I believe you didn’t have any prior dealings with them."
"Indeed," Zhang nglong replied, "Actually, it doesn’t matter to who among the three of you won the auction. I also don’t care about a few billions more or less. The Universe Ring Pill, the materials for that are just a few billion in cost, and I can make as many as I want."
Xi Chen twitched his mouth. The thing they were fighting desperately for was spoken of so dismissively by Zhang nglong.
"Then why act against us?"
"Not really against," Zhang nglong chuckled, "I made a bet with my two bodyguards on who would win, and they both bet on you, so I just casually bet on anyone else to win. I didn’t want to lose the bet, so I just manipulated things a bit."
Xi Chen had considered many possibilities but never thought that everything was simply due to a casual bet Zhang nglong made with his bodyguards, where he gave away 2,000 Divine Crystals just for a bet with no real stakes. Is there anyone else who would do such a thing?
"What, is betting with my own people illegal, or is transferring? There’s no rule for that in the Skyless Realm, right?" Zhang nglong laughed.
"Of course, it’s your freedom," Xi Chen said, "In that case, I might have to trouble you with another favor. I hope you could craft another Universe Ring Pill for . I’ll provide all the materials, and I’m willing to offer 300 billion Divine Crystals as a reward. What do you say?"
"No way," Zhang nglong refused without hesitation, "I just spent 18 on-demand episodes of ’Three-Body’ ahead of release, and I’m busy watching it. I don’t have ti now, you know, making elixirs while watching a series is quite distracting."
Even though Xi Chen didn’t understand what Zhang nglong ant, he knew he was being rejected.
"Master, I, Xi Chen, am not soone who swallows my losses silently," Xi Chen’s tone began to turn cold, "While I respect your abilities, they do not give you the right to act recklessly in my Skyless Realm. Do you really think that with just these two bodyguards and those assassins, you can run rampant here?"
"No, no," Zhang nglong shook his head, "I have no intention of being lawless, that’s boring. What I want is to be above the law here!"
At this mont, whether it was Heiwu, Heing, or those assassins, they all felt imnse pressure. Zhang nglong, it seed, was planning to confront Xi Chen head-on.
"Mr. Gu, let’s retreat for now. We can’t handle Xi Chen!" Night Hand’s voice flashed past Zhang nglong’s ear, and in an instant, he could no longer sense any of the assassins’ presence.
"Damn, you guys really do have principles!" Zhang nglong resisted the urge to curse aloud, but he wasn’t too worried, as he still had another card up his sleeve.
[Principal, I have analyzed the scroll completely. 1 billion Divine Crystals can trigger an attack with the power of Divine Cultivation Realm Elentary level. 50 billion can unleash an attack between the Fifth and Sixth Grades of Divine Realm, 400 billion can unleash one with the power of Seventh to Eighth Grade, 2 billion can unleash the power of a Ninth Grade attack, and 1 trillion Divine Crystals can barely release an attack equivalent to an elentary Ultimate Lifeform!]
"Got it!"
Though the cost was high, as long as there was a fight, it was worth it. Even a single attack from an elentary Ultimate Lifeform could potentially leave Xi Chen half-dead.
"Mr. Gu, perhaps you might reconsider?"
"No need," Zhang nglong remained firm, "Just threatening with your words earlier already constituted a cri, my friend."
"Since Mr. Gu is so uncooperative, then I, Xi Chen, must offend you," Xi Chen had no intention of further pulling with Zhang nglong, and the power of a Ninth Grade Divine Cultivation caused the entire room to feel like it was in a virtual space, "If you two want to die, go ahead and protect him. Even that woman Yao Yao wouldn’t dare do anything."
"You two back off," Zhang nglong said, while simultaneously injecting 5,000 Level Five Divine Crystals into that scroll.
With a red mist, a Heroic Spirit stood in front of Zhang nglong.
"Let’s see whose abilities are greater, yours or my money."
