Su Chen flipped through it for quite a while before saying evenly:

"Here's what we'll do. Go back and have your people calculate exactly how many things the Myriad Treasures Pavilion has. I'll take them all."

There were simply too many Lower-Grade Spirit Stones. Su Chen was thinking of converting all of them into treasures, which would help him even more.

Besides, he still had countless Middle-Grade Spirit Stones and Upper-Grade Spirit Stones he had yet to use.

This was getting ridiculous!

Zhu Li furrowed his brows and said, utterly speechless, "Young Clan Leader Su, this... Our Myriad Treasures Pavilion has a great many treasures. A rough estimate puts their total value at least in the ten-quadrillion range. This isn't something you can joke about."

If Su Chen had said he wanted to buy a hundred thousand pills, Zhu Li could still have believed him somewhat. But buying out the entire Myriad Treasures Pavilion was basically impossible.

That was absurd.

Who in the entire Eastern Domain could buy out their Myriad Treasures Pavilion?

Only those Saint Tier forces might be capable of it.

"Ten quadrillion?"

Su Chen silently calculated for a moment.

Ten trillion was one trillion, and ten quadrillion was one quadrillion.

Lower-Grade Spirit Stone balance: 6,500 quadrillion and 1,563 trillion

What the hell!

Su Chen could not help spitting out those two words. After working so hard, I've only spent one six-thousandth?

After thinking it over carefully, Su Chen gave up on converting everything into treasures.

It was simply too difficult, and it would indeed be far too shocking.

Su Chen shook his head and said, "Forget it. Let's do this another way. Have your Myriad Treasures Pavilion send my Su Family resources worth three billion Lower-Grade Spirit Stones every month."

"Choose popular cultivation techniques, formations, and pills. Don't include obscure ones. Keep the levels evenly distributed. I want everything from the Qi Condensation Stage to the Void Refinement stage."

"If the things you provide are good quality, I'll keep buying. If they're not, I won't."

As he spoke, Su Chen directly took out a spatial ring and handed it over.

"There are two hundred million Lower-Grade Spirit Stones inside. Consider them a deposit."

As an Ancient Holy powerhouse, he was not worried about Zhu Li running off with the spirit stones. Finding a Void Refinement cultivator would not be difficult for him.

Zhu Li looked at Su Chen's calm expression, his heart filled with shock. After years in commerce, he could tell that this Young Clan Leader Su was definitely not as simple as he appeared.

He was certainly hiding some great secret.

But Zhu Li did not dare harbor the slightest bit of greed. Su Chen had dared to hand him the spirit stones directly and confidently purchase all these things, which showed that he was not worried about Zhu Li growing greedy.

Moreover, the Myriad Gold Merchant Association had no precedent of attacking its customers.

Zhu Li's expression became somewhat respectful. "Yes, Young Clan Leader Su. Rest assured. I'll report this to headquarters immediately, and we'll deliver everything to the Su Family as soon as possible."

Su Chen said nothing more. He nodded, then turned and left the Myriad Treasures Pavilion without the slightest hesitation.

Watching Su Chen's departing figure, Zhu Li was somewhat dazed. Everything that had happened today felt like a dream.

"Slap!"

He suddenly smacked himself across the face. Pain surged into his mind, and Zhu Li knew... it had all been real.

Looking at the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, which had been emptied of everything, Zhu Li could not help giving a bitter laugh. The Myriad Treasures Pavilion no longer had any treasures. It only had spirit stones left.

After standing there in a daze for a long while, he left Bright Moon City and headed to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion's headquarters to report.

Their Myriad Treasures Pavilion only did business. No matter how many spirit stones Su Chen possessed, they would never harbor ill intentions.

It was precisely because of this that their Myriad Treasures Pavilion had been able to develop continuously in the Xuantian Realm and grow to its current scale.

But Su Chen... was truly a little too abnormal, wasn't he?

How could he possess so many spirit stones?

At the very least, someone like him should not have appeared in Bright Moon City.

On the way back, Su Chen looked at the treasures he had obtained through the Check-in System and asked curiously:

"System, can those spirit roots and spirit bodies be used by other people?"

He had obtained far too many physiques through check-ins. Ordinary ones, such as top-grade spirit roots and Heaven­ly Spirit Roots, numbered in the hundreds.

The better ones were Holy Bodies and Immortal Bodies, and he had plenty of those as well. Yet one person could only possess one physique; having more would cause conflicts.

The rest would simply go to waste.

System: "They can be used by others. However, outsiders do not have the system's protection. When fusing with a spirit root or special physique, they will endure unbearable pain."

Su Chen was immediately delighted. It seemed that he could give those surplus physiques to the Su Family's direct descendants.

Was there still any need to worry about the Su Family failing to rise?

Su Chen already regarded the Su Family as his own family, so he naturally hoped it would become even stronger.

After returning to the Su Family, Su Chen did not hand over everything he had purchased from the Myriad Gold Merchant Association. Instead, he selected only treasures worth ten billion spirit stones that would aid cultivation and kept the rest for himself.

After receiving several huge batches of resources from Su Chen previously, Su Qingtian was much calmer this time.

Su Qingtian held the spatial ring Su Chen had given him, his heart filled with mixed emotions and... deep doubt.

Everything that had happened to Su Chen was far too strange, giving him an unreal feeling.

Su Qingtian shook his head, and his eyes once again returned to calm. "No matter what secrets you have, you are still my child, Su Qingtian's child. You are also the Young Clan Leader of the Su Family. That... is enough."

He did not want to investigate the secrets surrounding Su Chen.

After returning to his own courtyard, Su Chen lay back in his chair with a look of pure enjoyment.

So comfortable.

This life after transmigrating had not let his million years in the Void Space go to waste.

When Han Xi saw Su Chen return home, she immediately walked over obediently and began massaging him.

The Su Family's servants had all received training, and their techniques were not much worse than those of professionals outside.

Su Chen smiled. "Not bad. You've already reached the Qi Condensation Eighth Layer."

Hearing Su Chen's praise, Han Xi's face filled with excitement. She said gratefully, "It was all thanks to the Young Clan Leader's nurturing that Han Xi was fortunate enough to break through."

Su Chen smiled faintly. He did not continue speaking, instead closing his eyes and quietly enjoying himself.

Actually, one reason he was nurturing the Su Family was that he genuinely liked this place. Beyond that, there was another extremely important factor.

Su Chen did not like being alone. He preferred having people around him.

In his previous life, when he read web novels, many protagonists spent their entire lives alone, devoting themselves wholeheartedly to cultivation and the like.

But Su Chen felt that such a life was simply too boring. Whether human or animal, it was actually difficult to escape the company of a social group.

Besides, Su Chen did not need to cultivate at all. The Check-in System had arranged everything for him. Resources, cultivation, treasures—he could obtain almost everything through check-ins.

He could completely lie flat.

The same bowl of rice felt ordinary when eaten alone, but if three people fought over it, it became fragrant.

If there was only him on the path of cultivation in the future, how would that be any different from being in the Void Space?

However, the Su Family's cultivation and aptitudes were far too poor. Among the younger generation of the Su Family, aside from him, the best spirit-root aptitude was only a middle-grade spirit root.

Their cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. Although that counted as decent in Bright Moon City, it was still far from enough.

After thinking it over, Su Chen decided to first raise everyone in the Su Family to Heaven­ly Spirit Roots, then gradually upgrade them to Spirit Bodies and Holy Bodies.

After all, raising them straight to Spirit Bodies and Holy Bodies would indeed be rather difficult to explain.

Su Chen did not want to forcefully raise the Su Family's strength so quickly. Taking things step by step was best.
