Nie Yun knew perfectly well that whoever wanted complete control over Earth had only two options: force and economics!
Subjugation by force would create all sorts of problems. By comparison, Nie Yun preferred to take control of Earth's economic lifelines one step at a time.
Like America after World War II, his first target in establishing economic control was currency!
The name might have sounded a little juvenile, but Nie Yun intended Infinite Coins to become Earth's unified currency!
This was a part of his plan he took very seriously.
Beyond that, through the Infinite Coin wishing machine, Nie Yun had, to some extent, indirectly made the technological benefits brought by the Mechanical Insects available to all humanity!
Ever since acquiring the Mechanical Insects, Nie Yun had continued to think of himself as human, but in practical terms, he had already begun walking the path of transcendence that humanity had only imagined.
Not only that, but Nie Yun, who was not one to hoard his treasures, had also opened a door to transcendence for humanity by developing the Mechanical Insects' abilities.
Brain Chip technology could free humanity from the increasingly heavy burden of learning. This was transcendence of the mind.
Gene Reversal technology could greatly extend human lifespans. This was transcendence of the flesh.
Virtual Reality technology could let humans instantly reach any place they wanted to go. This was transcendence of physical distance.
The three Ghost Knights and Elder Yu were the first humans Nie Yun had set on the path of transcendence.
The realization of these three major technologies had already pointed humanity toward a magnificent road leading to "Cosmic Humanity"!

"Lao Yu, something's wrong! I've noticed something's been very wrong with you lately!" Liang Guang and Zhou Dong stared at Elder Yu
