Virtual Universe Company's efficiency was astonishing, or rather, Sun Ruowei must have used countless connections behind the scenes to bring a team of uniformed staff to sign the contract in just a few days.

What puzzled Tang Ping was that the person in charge of the signing was not Sun Ruowei, but a cold-faced stranger. She simply stood aside, like an insignificant henchman.

However, Tang Ping did not investigate further.

Workplace conflicts are irrelevant to him; his most important task right now is to make money.

The signing process was simple and efficient; both parties confirmed their information and left. Three days later, two crisp notification sounds rang out on Tang Ping's Personal Terminal in succession:

[Ding! Cosmic Galaxy Bank notification: Your account has received 18,514,601.64 Hunyuan Unit, Remark: Asset acquisition payment for the Virtual Universe Company Ganwu Branch. High-return investment recommendation: Reply R to unsubscribe]

Looking at the huge numbers flashing on the screen, Tang Ping couldn't help but admire the impeccable efficiency of the transfer.

However, the second notification sounded again the next second:

[Ding! Cosmic Galaxy Bank notification: Your account has received 10,000,000 Hunyuan Unit. Note: Dividend from Luo Feng World Lord Rank Cosmic Galaxy Bank investment. High-return investment recommendation: Reply R to unsubscribe]

"Huh?" Tang Ping reacted instantly.

Luo Feng has already passed through the Domain Lord-level Primordial Heavenly Mountain and officially joined the ranks of Primordial Secret Realm Lord-level geniuses!

He casually opened the virtual stock market interface, and sure enough, Luo Concept Stocks had seen a slight increase. As a result, the Virtual Universe Company Ganwu Branch undoubtedly made a small profit after taking over his shares.

"A win-win situation, not bad." Tang Ping tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, calculating in his mind.

With the two payments arriving, his total assets have reached nearly thirty million Hunyuan Unit. How to convert this enormous sum into tangible power has become the most crucial issue. After all, in this perilous universe, the most tragic thing is to "die with money left unspent."

Tang Ping immediately opened the internal treasure vault interface of the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and began to filter items one by one:

Regarding secret techniques, his master had already prepared top-tier inheritances for him, so there was no need to purchase any additional ones for the time being;

He can't use armor-type treasures at the Immortal Level because he lacks the Immortal Divine Power to drive them. He's already bought World Lord Rank; once he breaks through to immortality, he can just ask his master for them.

Needless to say, his weapon, the "Wind-Thunder Chant" bestowed upon him by his master, is sufficient to sustain him until he reaches the King Rank realm.

As for treasures that enhance one's understanding of the Space-Time Laws, they are either prohibitively expensive or cheap, offering negligible benefits, far less than the boost from his own innate talent.

Let's just give up.

"Plant Lifeform!" Tang Ping's eyes suddenly lit up.

If one can cultivate Plant Lifeform to the Immortal Level, not only will one gain a powerful protective companion, but more importantly, Immortal Level Plant Lifeform can establish its own divine God Kingdom.

With the help of the God Kingdom Teleportation, he will no longer be trapped in the Wind-Thunder Secret Realm. He can go to Liu Hui to chat and fish, accompany Luo Kedi to listen to music and relax, and even—he can return to Earth to pay respects at his parents' graves.

Thinking of his parents from his previous life, Tang Ping felt a pang of melancholy.

Although he awakened his memories of his past life, he never lost himself. From childhood to adulthood, he envied children who had parents to accompany and guide them.

When wronged, children can run into their mother's arms and whine; when they encounter failure, home is always the safest haven. Before their passing, parents' greatest wish is probably that their children will live a peaceful and prosperous life.

"Don't worry, I'm doing very well now," Tang Ping murmured, a determined glint in his eyes. "When Luo Feng becomes the Hunyuan Lord in the future, I will definitely ask him to help revive you. At that time, our family can truly be reunited and live happily together."

Shaking off his thoughts, Tang Ping typed "Plant Lifeform cultivation" into the search bar. His core goal was clear: to cultivate his Domain Lord- level Cloud-Touching Vine to the Immortal Level.

However, the cultivation plan provided by the treasure vault made him gasp in shock:

108 Main Vine Cloud-Touching Vine: The best cultivation method has a success rate of 80%. It can be promoted to Immortal God and requires 18.1 million points. After cultivation, its combat power is equivalent to that of Ordinary Immortal. Its attack is relatively weak, but its survivability is extremely strong. It can survive the attack of Immortal Military Lord.

216 Main Vine, Cloud-Touching Vine: Optimal cultivation method with a 50% success rate, can advance to Immortal Military Lord, requires 1.53 billion points, after cultivation, can survive attacks from Marquis Rank powerhouses;

360 Main Vine, Cloud-Touching Vine: The best cultivation method has a success rate of 40%, which can promote one to the level of Marquis Rank. It requires nearly 11.6 billion points. After cultivation, one can barely survive an attack from King Rank.

"Holy shit!" Tang Ping couldn't help but swear, then instantly realized he had been overthinking things.

The nearly 30 million Hunyuan he had painstakingly accumulated seemed like a drop in the ocean compared to the Immortal Level cultivation program. No wonder Luo Feng used the Thousand-Vine Star-Eating Grass in the Outer Battlefield, which instantly upgraded his alias to the top ten of the Insect Race Must-Kill List.

World Lord Rank being possesses enough wealth to support the cultivation of the Thousand-Vine Star-Eating Grass, which is enough to show how much the Human Race values him. Such a potential asset would naturally be stifled by the Alien Race races at all costs.

"He's the real scoundrel," Tang Ping said with a helpless bitter smile, forced to settle for second best.

He immediately placed an order to cultivate his Cloud-Touching Vine to the Peak World Lord Rank, and with the help of an internal member discount, he only needed 2

00 million Hunyuan.

After thinking for a moment, he also ordered the same 360-level main vine Peak World Lord Rank Cloud-Touching Vine, for his two wives, with a "guaranteed success cultivation service" costing 2.5 million Hunyuan each.

They cannot be given a discounted price; the Cosmic Galaxy Bank is a for-profit institution, not a charity.

Afterwards, he selected a Fifth Order Peak battle suit for Huo Wu and Luo Xiaoyu (each costing 10 Hunyuan), as well as weapons that matched their Law Comprehension: Huo Wu preferred a nimble whip, while Luo Xiaoyu was skilled with a domineering spear, each costing only 10 Hunyuan.

Although World Lord Rank has a lifespan of tens of millions of years, which seems like an endless journey, time often flies by unnoticed. He didn't want to leave any regrets; spending money wasn't a loss, but rather a way of keeping the money with him in another form.

So, two more treasures caught his eye:

Fire Source Fruit: After consumption, it can reshape the body, making it more compatible with the Fire Origin Laws. After Peak World Lord Rank consumes it, the probability of breaking through to immortality increases to 40%. Price: 1 million Hunyuan.

Water Source Fruit: After consumption, it can reshape the body, making it more compatible with the Water Origin Laws. After consumption by Peak World Lord Rank, the probability of breaking through to immortality increases to 40%. Price: 1 million Hunyuan.

"Buy, buy, buy!" Tang Ping said without hesitation.

Having resolved the issue of aiding his own breakthrough, Tang Ping licked his lips, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. He entered "treasures related to increasing the ability of World Lord Rank powerhouses to have offspring" into the search bar.

A series of treasure information popped up on the screen instantly:

Star Fetus Spirit Liquid: It is a pale golden liquid. Its core principle is to simulate the life-growth environment in the early stages of the Big Bang, forcibly break the "overly stable state" of the World Lord Rank genes, and build temporary "life anchor points" in the gene chains of both men and women to promote the fusion and fission of gene fragments.

A single dose (10 drops, single use) costs 80,000 Hunyuan. Individual purchases are not accepted. The base success rate is 32%. If both parties are at the Peak World Lord Rank, the success rate can be increased to 65%.

Limitations: Can only be used 3 times in a lifetime. Multiple uses may cause genetic chain disorder and even cause one to fall from the realm of a realm master.

The Progeny Lotus Platform: Shaped like a budding blue lotus flower, it requires both the man and woman to sit cross-legged on the platform. The platform will actively absorb the life essence of the universe and transform it into exclusive "reproductive power," which can repair hidden damage to the gene chains of both parties and optimize gene sequences, with a probability of giving birth to offspring with the bloodline potential of Domain Lord.

Priced at 2 million Hunyuan, it is reusable with a base success rate of 58%; if used during the lotus platform's full bloom period (lasting 10 days), which occurs once every 1000 years, the success rate soars to 75%, with a 12% probability of giving birth to a genius offspring;

Limitations: Can only be used once a year, requires 1 Hunyuan Unit of Nutrient Solution for watering, otherwise it will wither.

In addition, there are treasures such as Ancestral Origin Blood Crystal, Fate-Locking Star Ring, and Myriad Transformation Conception Pill, but considering the overall cost-effectiveness, Star Fetus Spirit Liquid and Progeny Lotus Platform are the most suitable.

Tang Ping thought to himself: Just by looking at this price, you can tell that for some people in the vast universe, having children is such a difficult thing.

Fate is truly wondrous; what some people dream of, others discard like trash.

Tang Ping no longer hesitated and added the following to his shopping cart: 1 Progeny Lotus Platform, 6 portions of Star Fetus Spirit Liquid.

Then select all and proceed to checkout.

The next second, the deduction notification sounded precisely on time:

[Cosmic Galaxy Bank Notification: Your account has been automatically deducted 11,480,200 Mixed Hunyuan from the Cosmic Galaxy Internal Mall. Current balance: 17,034,581.64 Hunyuan]

"Phew~"

Tang Ping breathed a sigh of relief; it was done.

The wind blows the eggshell away; wealth disappears, but peace remains!
